i base WINNERS OF FIRST HALF LOSj . Williston Meets Defeat at Rhoad Pai Friday by Score of 8 to 5. With Otto Large, Will Brabha and Charlie Rentz leading the o fense in frequent savage attacks upc the hitherto unbeatable Smythe tl league leading Williston team b the dust at Rhoad park Friday ar went down in defeat under the drii of the Bamberg boys by a score of to 5. The locals must also gn *ive thanks to two others, little Bil Whitesides, doing his masterly twir ing, and Dukes at first base for Wi liston, whc played the greatest gan of ball for Bamberg of any man wi ever stepped on the diamond < * Rhoad park. He certainly was wit us Friday. Jamison, a port side hur er, or rather, a recruit, from S George, began the mound duty fc Bamberg, but his support was loos and .wobbly and his offerings wei also rapped rather freely and at o] portune times. So at the beginnin of the fifth he was relieved by th master of the Tri-County league bat! men. One more time little Bill Whitesides was called from obscurit and kiddish insignificance into th . thick of the fray with the odds fou , to one against him and the dashin invaders assaulting every effort an charging swiftly, surely and fiercel against the defenders of the forlor stout heart, smiling countenance an gallant confidence beat back the or rushing forces, stemmed the tide c almost certain defeat and turned i into victory, mounted to the immorta baseball heights of fame, grasped th top most round of the pinnacle o glory and emerged from the tryin t ; battle in triumphant victory as i conquering hero.

But anybody whi ; can slumber as soundly as he can i bound to be an honest man with < ' clear conscience, and if a debutante' * chaperon at a moon light picnic woul< only take a few dots fTrom Duke: everything would be lovely. Smythe had won 8 straight game without a loss. Five errors wen chalked up behind him, but even a that the scorer showed every consid V . eration for the fielders. The local made two errors. Williston gatnerei ft':.' ten hits from the two home pitchers while Smythe gave up eleven. Larg felt him for two screaming triples v. * ? Brabham got a double and two sing les, and Charlie Rentz banged ou four clean* singles, most of them ii the pinches, and gave evidence of th fact that he behaved himself bette nn his recent Sunday school trip t ? Greenville than he did last year a Atlantic City. The visitors bunche three hits in the first inning by Trot ti, Lott and Odiorne, along with sacrifice and a stolen base which nel i'.-1 ted them two runs. They ran in tw more in the third with the assistanc of some weird work by the winner and a misconception of the infield fl rule by the umpire, and their fine tally was recorded in the fifth o: Bill Whitesides when Arthur Kennt dy doubled to left and Lott single to right. Large started the fraca for Bamberg with a Jack Dempse wallop to the corn field in rigfc center for three bags, and counted o Brabham's single back of short. I the fifth Otto again started troub] for the winners of the first half b another Jack Dempsey punch dow the right field line for three sacK; and scored as Brabham doubled t right. Three runs were scored by th boys in this inning, three more in th seventh and one in the eighth, mostl by consecutive safe hitting and th miserable work of the Williston ir field, which was too rotten to be d( scribed in detail in a family newsps per. It was far from being a goo ball game; in fact, it isn't very ai propriate to term it a baseball gam at all, but just the same, the horn boys won, so we should worry.

This article-is being written Saturday before the second half of the? Tri-County league begins. It is written with no desire to knock, nor with any intention of criticising without first having a good motive behind it and the interests of the boys and the city of Bamberg at heart. The writer has never been classed as a knocker, and on the contrary he was one of the few, yes, very few, boosters for our boys towards the latter part of last season when everybody else had out their hammers and worked them over time. He has seen too much * a-*-* 11 4- y-v onr loom iiri/lor UfclStJ Udil IU CAp^t clu.j Lta uuuvi the canopy of heaven to win every game it plays. He believes that almost every man who wears a Bamberg uniform is his personal friend, and he r.t least cherishes the friendship of them all and needs it. Indeed, if he did not have a warm personal feeling for them, and did not know they had the stuff in them to cop that old rag this article would not be written. The writer can sympathize with any ball player who is out there in the broiling hot sun toiling away for his health's sake and a little honor and glory for his home town with no cash for himself. But this league is not operated for money or professionalism, but purely for good sportsmanship and the good of the six towns involved, and so our boys should also stop to think that what's worth doing at all is worth doing well, that they are performing a public service and a public duty, and that while they may not get rich at it, nevertheless, they are performing before hundreds of people who pay the regular admission charges from their own breeches pockets, and that they don't get satisfaction when they put out their cash to see a farce regardless of who wins. They should ? A f V? av o m SOP lO reiucmuci iuai mcj ^ .,vu.. ing the uniform of a mighty chesty little city, proud of its past base ball record of never putting out a losing club, and a bunch of fans who are the hardest losers In the world, for the simple reason that we have always won, and are full of town pride. They should stop to think that almost every town in this section of the state is envious and jealous of Bamberg's base ball prowess for years and years, and for that very reason we hardly have a friend or supporter two - miles out. They should take to heart, grit their teeth, go after the pennant with a grim determinaion and say we will do or die, ! and with the old poilu's resoluteness ! at the famous German seige or Paris, "They shall not pass, they shall not pass." Bamberg has more good ball players than any town of similar size in the state; they have the goods to deliver if they will do it, and the players are here to win the championship of the second half and finally the pennant. But we haven't enough of them to win if each man at some time or other feels it his sacred duty to trot off when we have a game and leave the team in a hole; neither will frolicking and carousing win ball games. Such in - *- ?J-: ? ? ~ 1 it Kroo lr intf* amereni wcuis hul umj utbua the lineup by taking that particular man out, but they take the ginger i out of the balance of the players, demoralize the club and kill the morale | of the team, and with these all pros| pects go glimmering. It does seem j that the boys should at least display an equal amount of interest with the fans. The Bamberg players who are home boys are representative citizens of the social, commercial and political life of the town and community, and if such men as these haven't sufficient public spirit and civic pride to nco tVipir hest efforts and forego a little racing around for just a short while until the brief season is over when they will have loads of time to make merry before fall, then how on top side of mother earth can they expect the hired players to care a rap about it? So come on, boys, let's all pull together and bring home the bacon; the fans are with you; are you with the fans and for your town? We can win; we must win; and we will. And just as an inspiration, here's fifteen rahs for the 1920 TriCounty league champions. I RILEY & COPELAND i Snccessors to W. P. Riley. Fire, Life Accident INSURANCE Office in J. I>.
