Laval offered a good,
program to local fans if
the league can be induced to
along with such a program,
suggested that the towns in the
league might use college teams
largely with possibly a seasoned
relief pitcher or so to come to the
relief of the young pitchers if
they begin to “blow.” Mr. Laval
suggested that there are eight
college teams in the state and the
eight towns in the league could
each adopt one of the college 1
teams for the summer. The boys
would nbt expect the exorbitant
salaries that have been paid the
professional players. Mr. Laval
thinks the boys would hustle
more and probably give the fans
more exciting ball than they have
been seeing.
Mr. Laval also offered another
suggestion that should be adopt
ed. He said six games should bo
‘ every week. The extra
attendance each week

operating at a loss and breaking

wiu be the roost outstand

Certainly local fans are getting
"bet up" now that the weather
is getting springlike and when
the sap begins to rise it is ex
erted that they will be more de-
srminod than ever to have base
ball in Camden this summer.
The local team last year was
remendously handicapped by
weather conditions. It seemed
that almost every night a game
was scheduled here dark clouds
came up about an hour before
game tune and while it seldom
rained, the clouds were sufficient
to keep the fans away from the
K rk. Perhaps the team would
xe a better break with the
weather this summer.

Ruth Lyles and Margie Broadway

Another thought is that many
of the permanent DuPont resi

give a greater potential drawing

Clemson alumni were given a
pro-view of the 1950 Clemson foot
ball team by Cary Cox, member
of the Tiger coaching staff, at a
dinner held at Gus Ward’s last
Friday night.
Mr. Cox showed pictures of the
Auburn-Clemson game which ended
in a 20-20 tie and aaid that the
Clemson team this fall will be
about the same as the one which
made such a fine showing in this
game. Gene Moore, the center,
will be missing but otherwise the
team will be about the same as the
one which played In the Auburn
game with several strong additions
from this year’s freshman team.
The picture of the Auburn-Clem
son game proved to be about as
thrilling as the game, Mr. Cox
calling each of the plays as they
were run and one felt almost as
if he had seen the game when the
picture was completed.
A delightful steak dinner was
served the alumni. J. C. Gillls.
president of the club, presided.
Carlyle Jackson is the secretary
of the clnb, which has a large
membership.
