For febnmry. 2 » At a recent meeting of Palmetto baseball league representatives held at Blshopvllle tentative plans for the 1948 season were discussed but no definite action taken. A second meeting has been called for February 2 at the Lee hotel in Bish- oprllle when all ar'^aneementh for the season will be^ decided upon. Klngstree, a former member of the Palmetto loop, but last year in the Coastal league has been ad mitted to the 1948 Palmetto roster, taking the place of Florence which has entered the Trl-State loop. Two other teams of the 1947 Palmetto listing may not enter teams this year, they being Blsh- opville and Bennettsville. The fact that Sumter was not represented at the meeting was held by some of the delegates to Indicate tha* the Gamecock city might no* put a team in the loop this year. How ever,, this seems cllscnunted bv the fact that a recent item under a Snm»er headline spoke of the or- genlration of a Palmetto league team there. The league has extended nn in vitation to Orangeburg to enter a fesm this rear and reports from th»t el»v Indtcste that there is con siderable enthusiasm in evidence toward such a plan.

George Bishop, bnsl- : ness manager of the Chiefs, a few weeks ago, sent word that the team I deflnltev would come but a later ' li tier telling of the directors meet- j ing has aroused some'doubts here jae to whether the original plan will i he carried out.

SPECIALS —THIS WEEK— ★ ★ * •BRICK-^^ I- PUBLIC FORUM ^ Nureery for Colored Children Editor of The Chronicle: My attention baa Just been railed to a letter in The Chronicle for December 12. in which Mrs. Mar garet B. Pitts pointed out the need tor a nursery for colored children. I believe Mrs. Pitts and othet pab- hc-spirlted citisena will be glad to know that a nursery school has been run In connection with Mather Academy for several years. It was Htarted as a result of a aurvery made by a senior class In religious education wbich showed the need for such a project. The daily program includes sup- .^vised playl training in health habits, lunch and a nap. A fee of fl.OO per week covers the doet of lunches and incidental ezpc'nses, but in cases where parents are nn- pble to pay this amount the fee Is adjusted, to suit their circum stances, so that no child needs to^ stay away for lack of money. At present we take children from three years up to school age, but we would like to enlarge our program to include younger chOdren also. We are handicapped by the lack of any facilities for transportation. Consequently in coltL or rainy weather the children who need the Ltsery moat are unable to attend. 'We would welcome the help of interested friends in finding the children who need to be in a nur sery and in solving onr problems of transportation. Very truly yours, ALMO METCALFE.
