ball league was re-organised here
tonight with four dubs entering
—Lake City, Georgetown, Kings-
“A representative^ from Harts-
ville Was present but stated he
was here only as a visitor and
could not speak for either Sonoco
or the town of Hartsville. En
thusiastic representatives of the
four towns unanimously adopted
a resolution to limit the dub ros
ter to 15 players, including a man
ager, and limit the total dub
salaries, including the manager's
to $3,800 per month. The group
also favored the plan of each town
securing their players from an
unlimited territory rather than
the 40-mile radius that was used
this year.
“A motion to draw up a set of
by-laws with teeth to enforce the
above resolutions and other rules
prevailed. Paul Dean of Orange
burg was elected chairman of the
committee and was authorized to
call another meeting of the league
soon as his committee is pro
to report
"No action was taken regarding
the number oi dubs to have in
the league, since there waa no one
present who could speak for
either Hartsville or Camden. It
was not known whether these two
towns would be interested under
the new salary limitations and un
limited territory. It waa reported
unofficially that there are some
other towns interested in entering
teams.
**W. W. Singletary of Lake City
was elected to preside at the
meeting today and it waa agreed
to elect officers at the next meet-
m “Member* of the committee to
draw up the proposed by-laws, in
addition to Dean, are John Hardy
of Georgetown, W. R- Buie, Jr., of
Kingstree, Bill TCoury of Lake
City and J. P. T. Melton of Hart*-
ville.
“Much of the afternoon was
spent considering the league re
port of Billy Laval, president this
year.'' •
NOT WITHOUT OOD
Thomas E. Dewey: "We have
not found peace within ourselves
—we have not been able to estab
lish it among nations. Unless we
are willing to prepare for a new
Dark Age, we must soon acknowl
edge that we cannot get along
without the God our forebearers
found indispensable.”
