Tapstick hunting, as de scribed by Henry P. Davis in the September issue of the “Ford Times,’’/monthly pub lication of the Ford Motor Company, derives its name from the hickory shaft, weighted with a tap or heavy iron nut, which is used as a weapon in rabbit chases. “The tapstick is the main item of equipment in the most primitive, if not the most picturesque, method of hunting still known in America,’’ Mr. Davis writes. “Sweeping end - over - end through the air, the weighted sticks make telling missiles, and lucky is the rabbit that escapes the barrage.” The .author, a recognized expert on sporting dogs and an authority on trap, field and skeet shooting, says that tap stick hunting is a “peculiarly Southern practice, adding much to the picturesqueness of plantation life in frill and winter." He predicts the sport will be enjoyed as ‘long as cotton is king, as long as sedge fields and briar patches oner food and shelter to the cottontail rabbit.” Negro Recreational Area Established recreational negro r ibfished playground at the ilored P SUMMONS State of South Carolina, County of Kershaw In the Court of Common Pleas Ruby Ernestine Thames Pettioord, Plaintiff, VS.

Recalls Upset Of 1945 In Bantams Game Writing of high school football, Doug Donehue, sports editor of the Orangeburg Times and Demo crat, a native of Charleston, re calls the Camden High-Charleston High football game of 1945 when the Bulldogs upset the dope by holding the Charleston team to a scoreless tie. Here is what he says of tlje game: “When Carol Cox graduated from Camden in 1944 he was just one of the many players who left Camden High almost without a football team. Camden really plastered the Bantams in 1944 and when time for the 1945 game rolled around, the Bantams were prepared to slaughter the Bull dogs. Those of you who will re member will recall that Charles ton High had a great team that year. In the backfield they had such stars as Marty Garshon, Lar ry Riggs, Allah Leevin, Bill Wan- namaker and Charlie Fabian. There was an equal array of stars in the Bantam line and everyone of those boys was intent upon pulverizing the Camden outfit “What happened that night be fore the game got underway was almost pathetic. The Bantams were on the field early, kicking, passing, running and getting set for the game. In came the Bull dogs and a more pitiful aggrega tion we have never seen. “There were only 20 men on the entire Camden team and they looked like nothing better than a Class C teem at the best Top weight on the Bulldog squad was a right halfback named Gene Banner, who tipped the beams at a prize winning 170 pounds. When the Bulldogs came hustling in there was a loud groan from the stands. People were saying, “Oh, this will be murder. Those little kids haven’t got a chance against this powerful Charleston team.’ All week the Charleston papers had been full of stories about how the Bantams were go ing to revenge themselves for that 20-6 defeat the year before. “Saturday morning’s sports page headlines about that Cam- den-Charleston game read like this: Bantams, Camden Play 0-0 Tie; Birds Narrowly Escape De feat. Now, here’s how Doc Baker started his story on that game: “A fierce team of Camden Hi For the Camden fans had seen their Bulldog sons push, shove, and get pushed through 60 min- utes of fast-breaking football, at least half of which were pre dominated by the Bulldogs in a frantic effort to better the first- half 14-point lead chalked up by the Gamecocks. ' • The Gamecock eleven, well- heeled in every position, took the field, squared off their trick T- formation, and wasted no time in making the T stand for touch down. Sumter back Russel Sutton took the opening kick-off on the ten, and, with the help of team mates Garrison and Cain, spark- plugged a sustained drive that netted four first downs and six big points for the Gamecocks. Gus Pringle’s placement split the up rights and added a point to the scoreboard. Sumter 7—Camden 0. The Camden boys failed to click on their first ball-toting op portunity, and Jimmy Cox turned the ball b5ck over to the Game cocks with a 47-yard kirk, after the ball had changed hands twice on fumbles. Cox’s kick, which s$arted from his own 43. proved to be the longest boot of the even ing. The Sumter lads rocked for ward for another pair of first downs as thfe quarter ended with the ball resting on the midway stripe. 'nie Bulldogs grabbed them selves their first first down as the quarter opened, then lost the ball on downs. An exchange of punts found the ball in the possession of the Gamecocks on the Camden 45. It was from this point that the Sumter lads pulled the most spectacular play of the contest and added their second and final tally. A short completed forward from Cain to Strange looked good for only about six yards until it was lateraled off to Gamecocks’ Sutton who went all the way. Again Pringle found the mark, and added the point to the score that was to stand till half-time: Sumter 14—Camden 0. The second quarter saw Cam den's line, pounds lighter than their opponents, tighten and re fuse to yield a first down to the Gamecocks for the remainder of the half. The Bulldogs reopened the sec ond half with a drive from their own ten that netted two first downs and an announcement to the Sumter boys that they meant business. A six-yard loss and an incompleted pass forced Jimmy Cox to kick, however, and the ball went to the Gamecocks on their own 15. On their first try from scrim mage in the second half, the Sum- tor lads fumbled, and Bulldog Co- Captain Ernest Barfield, sur rounded by Gamecocks, pounced on the ball to claim it for his teammates on the Sumter 12. The Camden lads tightened their chin- straps, an4 find by the determin ed Une-bucking of tailback Jim my Cox, moved steadily and sure ly through the big Sumter line to their first tally. The try for extra point was inches shy of the mark, and the scoreboard read: Stun ter 14—Camden 6. The fourth quarter saw the Camden lads on the move again. Sparked by Jimmy Cox’s 22-yard dash from the Bulldogs’ 25, the locals caught fire, and moved down the field. Cox’s pass to Gayle Kerr was good for 30 yards, and placed the ball in scoring position for the Bulldogs on. the Sumter 8. Camden’s scoring punch was lessened considerably when high- stepping, hard-hitting fullback George Beleos was sidelined with a leg injury. Three tries netted five yards, and Cox’s pass to the flat on the fourth down fell in complete. Sumter took over, with their backfield forming behind their own goal line, and moved out of the hole up the field, as the Cam den lads gambled desperately to regain possession of tha ball. The timekeeper’s whistle put an end to it all, however, with the ball still in the possession of the Game cocks. Final score: Sumter 14— Camden 6.
