Newberry, B-L Fracas
Ends In 12-12 Score
Bickley Hits
For 70 Yards
By Kenneth Stokes
Both teams met their match
Friday night as neither Newber
ry nor Batesburg-Leesville was
able to outscore the other. A
conversion by either team would
have been the difference between
a tie and a victory.
1st Quarter
In the 1st quarter, Pat Herndon
of Newberry, kicked to Harley of
Hatesburg-Leesville. Harley re
ceived on the 20 yard line and
ran back to the 30. On the 1st
and 2nd downs, The ‘Dogs’ held
B.L. to the line of scrimmage,
but on the third down B.L. fumbl
ed and Newberry recovered.
Herndon shot a 35 yard aerial
to end Wyman Shealy for a 1st
down. Then, on the next play,
Bickley plowed through center
for a T.D. The extra point was
no good, giving the Bulldogs an
early lead, 6-0.
Herndon kicked to Temples on
the 30 yard line. Temples car
ried the Pigskin back to the 40
yard line. After the B.L. team
racked up a first down, the Bull
dogs’ settled down and forced the
B.L. team to punt. After a series
of punts the ‘Dogs’ got the oval
on their own 20 yard line. The
1st quarter ended here.
2nd Quarter
Pat Herndon took the ball on
the 21 yard line and traveled 50
yards deep into B.L. territory.
After a loss of 7 yards and a 15-
yard clipping penalty, the pig
skin finally came to rest on the
Batesburg-Leesville 43 yard line.
The Dogs were forced to kick
and the ball went out of bounds
on the 18 yard line. On two
consecutive plays, Gaylord pass
ed for 17 yards. The Bulldogs
held their ground and forced
the B.L. team to kick. Neither
team gained or lost much in the
next few plays and the 2nd
quarter ended.
3rd Quarter
Temples kicked to Beck on the
30 yard line. Beck carried back
a few yards and was hit hard
to put the oval on the 34 yard
line. The very next play, New^
berry fumbled and B.L. recover
ed Batesburg-Leesville then pick
ed up 2 1st downs and Gaylord
carried the few remaining yards
tor a Touch Down. The extra
point was no good, tying the
score at 6-6. Burkett kicked to
Beck on the 25 yard line. Beck
carried the oval back to the
30 yard line. After the next 2
plays the ‘Dogs’ were driven back
to tiie 26 yard line. The 3rd
quarter ended here.
4th Quarter
A 15 yard clipping penalty car
ried the pigskin back to the 11
yard line. On the next play,
The ‘Dogs’ fumbled and Bates
burg-Leesville recovered. The 1st
play that B.L. had the ball, Bos
tick, B.L.’s fullback, carried over
for the tally. The extra point was
no good, putting the score in
favor of Batesburg-Leesville 12-6.
Harkley kicked to Herndon on
the 20. He carried back to the
30 yard line. On the next play,
Frank Bickley bucked center and
galloped 70 yards for a ‘Dog’ TJD.
Again the extra point was not
converted. This tied the score at
12-12. Tile remaining part of the
game was fought with little gain
or loss to either side. Final
score, Newberry 12, Batesburg-
Leesville 12.

Odd Bodkin Sez:
I MUST CONFESS to ye the cause
o’ the great drought this sum
mer. Some ’uns around here blame
it on Squire Gladmoney Debitside’s
television machine drawin’ all the
electric out of the clouds.
’Tweren’t that at all.
And ’tweren’t the low state of
morals nor the cussedness of the
party in power—although them
things hev been knowed to bring
some powerfully dry weather. If It
were the Demycrats, we’d had a
drought ter 20 yars, and Lord
knows we’ve had some gully wash
ers in them yars. A fellow’s got
to make up his mind which he
wants to blame the Demycrats fer
—flood or drought, not both.
As fer morals, it’s rained several
times since Aunt Effle Toadhopper
threw away her pipe and picked
up cigarettes, besides painting her
toenails.
And no matter what Parson
Peters sea, 'tweren’t folks not
payin’ the preacher that brought
the parched spell. We paid him
enough fer goods received, and
some of his sermons were as dry
as the weather.
'Tweren’t cause it don’t rain
nights in July, as Aunt Efflie sez,
or on account of the atom bomb
out there in Nevada. No sir!
I’m the one who brought on that
drought—’twas wife-beatin’ that
done it. Seems that warm weather
always makes Belle, my wife, lazy.
On a warm June day, I can’tr get
her started in the corn patch until
after sun-up. This summer, what
with the beetles and the blight, I
started heatin’ her.
We ain’t had a drop of rain since
I fust laid a hoe handle on her. I
want to tell my neighbors right
now I’m sorry. But wife beatin’
is alius good for a long drought.
And Belle needs a few blows along
about dandelion greens time every
yar.
Mebbe it’s breakin’ good hoe
handles that causes the drought,
but 1 think it’s the cussedness of
Belle.

“When they’re not on the top
they’re usually on the bottom. If
you can’t catch them within a
few inches of the surface, you
might as well start dragging the
rocks.” That’s what Dan Holland
remarked to Ted Trueblood
several years ago, and after a
good cfeal of research and experi
menting, Ted reports it’s true in
an article titled “Skip the Mid
dle.”
This addage applies almose 99
per cent of the time he thinks.
The reason is pretty obvious.
Hatching aquatic insects pause
on the surface and are vulnerable
there. Land-bom insects such as
grasshoppers, bees and flies float
for a long time. Bass and pike
find frogs, mice and other food
on top of the water. On the
other hand, when there is nothing
on the surface most trout food
corals from the bottom. All
nymphs live there and they m«xe
up the larger portion of the diet
of all trout in all streams, Trout-
stream minnows, such as scul-
pins and baby suckers, hide un
der the stones on the botton.
In bass wjaters, crawfish and
hellgrammites live on the bot
tom. Minnows hide there among
the rubble and in aquatic vegeta
tion. Small fish of all kinds find
shelter on or close to the bot
tom much of the time.
So what do we do? We start
fishing the top because it’s more
fun to catch trout on a dry fly
or a bass on a bug or a floating
plug. If w£ don’t get them we
start fishing deeper and deeper.
I’ve wasted hundreds of hours
of valuable fishing time that way,
but I now think that it is abso
lutely backward from the best
procedure.
We can fish top-water first, of
course, but when we don’t get
them there we should start drag
ging the bottom immediately
rather than wasting time on the
water between. If we don’t find
fish on the bottom, there still
will be plenty of time to work
the middle depth—but that great

Correct Lifting
Hints Listed $y
Farm Agent Ezell
Cirrect lifting should be prac
ticed until it becomes a habit, ac
cording to County Agent Paul B.
Ezell. He says each year thous-|
ands are victims of sprains,
strains, hernias, and other injuries
caused by improper lifting.
He points out that according to
the records of the National Safety
Council the most common causes
of lifting injuries are: Lifting and
lowering with the back muscles,
insecure grip of footing and un
safe placing of hands or feet; us
ing quick, jerking, twisting or
awkward movements of the body;
obstructed vision, unstable loads
or inadequate control; and, insuf
ficient help or failure to use me
chanical aids.
“The body is a mechanical sys
tem of levers and hinges, activat
ed by cables just like many ma
chines,” he states. “Nature intend
ed each bone joint and muscle for
a specific purpose. When over
loaded or used improperly, in
juries are invited. It 'is a common
practice to bend at the waist when
reaching down to grasp an object.
Lifting in this position places a
severe strain on the sensitive back
and abdominal muscles. Always
bend your knees and keep back
straight when it becomes neces
sary to lift.
“Examine larm lilting jobs with
a critical eye,” he suggests. “Re
arrange the work to eliminate or
reduce the amount of lifting re
quired. Explore the feasibility of
using simple and safe mechanical
aids, such as rope hoists, wooden
skids, hand trucks or inexpensive
conveyors,” he adds.
By WALTER SHE AD
P OLITICAL observers are shy
about making predictions as to
the final outcome of this election.
For some reason they keep hark
ing back to 1948 when about 99
percent of these experts pre
dicted the election of Thomas E.
Dewey and President Truman up
set the political applecart.
And while this column also is
wary of making any predictions at
this stage of the campaign, we are
in disagreement with most of the
so-called dopesters in that we do
not believe this election will be
close when the electoral votes are
counted. It will be a sweeping vic
tory one way or another.
Either General Eisenhower will
be swept into office with a smash
ing victory carrying with him some
of the southern states ... or else
Governor Adlai Stevenson of Illi
nois will win hands-down with one
of the biggest electoral college
votes in history.
The people will decide they want
a sweeping change for Ike.
Or they will declare, “Adlai is
enough change for me.”
* * •
One way or another, the presi
dency this year will carry with it
a complete House and Senate, al
though there is a chance that the
Democrats, with 35 senate seats
safe and without contest and six
more seats—Rhode Island, Vir
ginia, Tennessee, Florida, Missis
sippi and Texas—contested but also
considered safe, might possibly
control the Senate even with a Re
publican sweep otherwise.
Only uncertain Democratic sen
ate seats are New Mexico, where
the veteran Dennis Chavez, Demo
crat, is opposed by Republican
Patrick Hurley; Arizona, where the
veteran Ernest McFarland is op
posed; Wyoming, where- veteran
Joseph O’Mahoney battles Repub
lican governor Frank Barrett;
Michigan, where freshman Sena
tor Blair Moody is opposed by leg
less war veteran GOP congress
man Charles E. Potter; Maryland,
where George Mahoney, the Demo
cratic nominee, is opposed by Re
publican congressman J. Glenn
Beall; Connecticut, where two
Democratic seats are at stake as
Republican William A. Purtell op-
volume of water usually holds
the fewest game fish because it
has the lest food.
Incidentally, there is quite a
distinction between merely fish
ing deep and fishing the bottom.
You could row out to the middle
of the lake and fish for lake
trout at a depth of 80 feet. You’d
be fishing deep, but you still
poses Democratic Senator William
Benton and a contest is on for the
seat of the late Senator Brian Mc
Mahon.
• • «
Republicans have only 26 sure
seats without contests ancLsix other
seats reasonably sure, in California,
North Dakota, Nebraska, Maine,
Vermont and Delaware. But they
have 14 seats which are uncer
tain, including Senator William
Jenner in Indiana where Demo
cratic Governor Schricker is his
opponent; Kem in Missouri where
the Democratic opposition is Stuart
Symington, former National Re
sources Board and RFC boss; Mas
sachusetts, where Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge has tough opposition
in Democratic John Kennedy, son
of former Ambassador Joseph
Kennedy; Ohio, where Senator
John Bricker is up against ram
paging Mike DiSalle, former price
stabilizer; Washington, where Sen-
ator'Cain is opposed by Democratic
congressman Henry M. Jackson;
Montana, where GOP Zales Ecton
is opposed by popular Democratic
Congressman Mike - Mansfield in
normally Democratic territory;
Nevada, where GOP Senator
George Malone may be in trouble;
Utah, where Senator Arthur Wat
kins must oppose Congressman
Walter Granger; Wisconsin, where
Senator Joseph McCarthy has de
termined opposition and Minnesota,
where Edward J. Thye also faces
hot Democratic competition. So the
Republicans must hold all present
seats and gain three to control the
Senate.

.One thing is sure in this cam
paign about which there has been
considerable effort to build-up . .
there is NO breach between Gov
ernor Stevenson and President
Truman despite the efforts of some
writers to make believe. As a mat
ter of fact President Truman is
given credit with being too shrewd
a politician not to let Stevenson
have his head and the spotlight in
this campaign. Stevenson is vir
tually an unknown in politics, inso
far as the voters are concerned.
He is running against the most
glamorous personality the GOP
could muster, and President Tru
man knows that to win, Stevenson
must be built up.

there is a lot of difference be

water or you can sink it five
