Triple “C” News Notes
(By Arthur Riddock, Reporter.)
Barbecue.
The main topic of interest at Com
pany 4468 during the week was the
holiday given Friday, June 12th, in
order that the boys could attend the
barbecue given by the Forestry de
partment at Fuller Park in Barnwell.
Not only the boys stationed at P-70
attendedl, but the boys from Luray and
Walterboro «s well. Everybody from
camp wa s there.
The progiam began in the band
stand at Fuller Park about ten o’
clock in the morning, with Senator
Edgar A. Brown a s chairman. The
speakers on the occasion were: Tom
Barron and W. C. Hammerlee, of the
State Forestry Department, Mr.
Stitt, District Forester, Mike Ussery,
Foiest Ranger for Barnwell County;
Col. Solomon Blatt, and Senator J. H.
Hammond, of Columbia.
Before dinner there were a number
of fieldl events, sack races, three leg
ged races and so on, and a number of
the boys took part. Dinner consisted
of plenty of good barbecue, well cook
ed, rice, gravy, cole slaw, bread and
iced tea. The barbecue was something
to talk about.
Ball Game.
Another event of the holiday was a
ball game between the local company
and Company 4467 of Geogetown, in
which the visitors came out victorious
by the score of 9 to 3. Except for the
2nd wand 3rd innings, in which Barn
well pretty well went to pieces, it was
an interesting game.
Parler and Bryant each getting 3
hits out of 4 trips, led the hitting for
the visitors, and were closely follow
ed by Berry, who got 3 out of 5. Bry
ant and Chavers each poled 1 a double
for the visitors. *
Bass got 2 out of 4 to lead the local
hitters. He was the only Barnwell
player to get more than one hit. Hook
and White each got a double, however,
and Ellison got a triple, the longest
hit of the game. Lord and Potter were
pitchers for Barnwell, and White
caught. Jackson and Mahoney were
batteries for Georgetown.
Anniversary Coming Up.
July 3rdl markes the date when the
Barnwell CCC camp will be one year
old. Fortunately it comes on Friday,
which makes it just o. k. for our next
dance. Preparations are being made
by the committee, and thi s is going to
beat the last one, which beat any be
fore that. This is going to be our
“Anniversary” Ball.
On Wednesday night after Mr.
Bryan had made his weekly talk on
Cuirent Events anti Citizenship, the
regular weekly stunt night was held.
Ft consisted of a mock trial. W. J.
Gleaton wa s judge, W. A. Bryan,
clerk, A. B. Riddock, solicitor, T. L.
Siegler, defense attorney, and Bart
Ray and James Cook, defentiants. A
six man jury was chosen with “Major”
Lavender as foreman. Bart “came
clear”, but Cook was convicted and
sentenced to buy a bottle-of beer each
moining for the next three weeks for
each member of the office force, of
which “Judge” Gleaton is the head.
We were glad to have Mrs. Ritchie
present, as it necessitated making the
performance high toned throughout.
Five men were tiansferred Satur
day “for the convenience of the gov
ernment J’ Presumably this wa s to
equalize the number of men in the
camps. Our five went to Cheraw, go
ing up in our “G. I.” Chevrolet, chauf-
feied by our, most efficient truck
driver, Cartin. Those leaving were
Harrison, McClain, Patterson, Graves
and McCormack. The first three have
been with us only since we got in the
21 men in May. Graves and McCor
mack are veteran 8 here, having been
here since the camp opened. We will
miss them all, and especially these
two. ,
There is to be a show/in Barnwell
soon, anti it is rumored that Mr. Bry
an—is—to-have-a—parL—Wonder if he
hag to make any love?

“Sky High,” the thrilling drama of
the sky ways, sponsored by the Barn
well Chapter, D. A. R.’s, contains
mlany featured choi^fe^s and num
bers in addition to the all-star cast.
Mrs. Cave and her committee, Mrs.
Jones and Mis. Easterling, have se
cured' the best talent in Barnwell for
this production, and all are working
to make it the best community 'event
ever staged here.
Mrs. Lila Brown, emotional Irish
mother of the young inventor of “Sky
High,” will make you laugh and weep
as you follow his ups and downs.
“Red” Watts is a scream as her
“brither.”
Troy Davi s make s his debut be
fore a Barnwell audience as a gevem-
ment man in charge of contracts. He
does excellent work. Indeed, he is a
find, and will doubtless be in demand
from now on.

ADVERTISE IN
The People- Sentinel.
A great many people do not buy an automobile every year
and the true test of car economy comes after the first year
... And owners of Ford V-8s agree that—"The mechanical
depreciation on a Ford it lest than most cart, especially
after the first year.”
The reason that this is true of Ford cars goes way back
to the raw materials of which they are built... Men who
make steel know that “Ford buys the best steel”...And
this rigid insistence on extra value goes right through the
whole manufacture of a Ford V-8... low-priced Ford re
placement parts are built to the tame t^h standard as
those in the new car.
Because the ear itself lasts longer, costs less to keep np,
yet costs no more in the first place. Ford owners agree
that—fhe 1936 Ford V-8 it the best automobile invest-
menl you can make today.
