Mens Softball
League Formed
1
Plans have been made by the
city recreation department for a
softball program for men, and
there won’t be any argument about
it, says P. K. Fuller, director.
“The league is being set up for
several reasons,” said Fuller, in
cluding among them “to take the
argument out of the game and put
the fun back in.” Rules have been
set as follows:
All persons who wish to play
must register; 15 plays to each
team; 10 players will make up an
actual playing team, • the tenth
player being a short fielder; noj
bunting; no stealing bases; noth
ing but slow pitching; runner
must keep foot in contact with
base until ball is hit; no umpires;
no protests; the recreation depart
ment will furnish balls and bats.
There will possibly, be a few
moi'e simple rules, Fuller said, but
these will be the rules under which
the league will operate.
The players will be divided into
teams as follows:
After all the persons who intend i
to play have registered, they will
be divided into equal groups of 15.
The best five players out of this
75 will be put in five different
groups; the next best five players
will be placed in the five different
groups, and this procedure will
continue until all players are se
lected. The five managers must
agree on the five groups being
equally balanced, then draw num
bers for their respective teams. If
any new players wish to join after
the teams are selected, they may
do so. New players will be placed
on each team until the teams reach
15, then a new team will be estab
lished.
The age limit will be from 17
years up. All persons who wish to
play must register at the Youth
Center by Saturday night, May 6.
Persons may register by calling
the youth center Monday, Wednes
day and Friday afternoons between
3 and 5:30 p.m., or Friday and
Saturday night between 8 and 11
p.m.

SERVING CAROLINA'S NEEDS SINCE 1834
COLUMBIA — Creation of a
Newberry County Board of Rural
Fire Control is proposed in legis
lation sponsored by the county’s
delegation in the General Assem
bly.
The board would consist of five
members, appointed for two-year
terms by the governor on recom
mendation of a majority of the
members of the legislative dele
gation.
After investigating the needs of
Newberry County communities for
fire protection and fire-fighting
equipment, - the board would es
tablish priorities for receipt of
equipment. The equipment would
remain owned by Newberry Coun
ty but would be allocated to com*
munities for actual custody and
operation.
Before a community would be
eligible to receive any such equip
ment, however, it would have to
accomplish the following:
1. Convey a lot for the erec
tion of a fire house. The deed
could have a reverter clause so
that it would be turned back to
the owner if the lot is not used
for fire-fighting purposes. The
lot would have to have at least
a 75-foot frontage and be at least
100 feet deep, with access to pav
ed roads and an adequate water
supply.
2. Construct a fire house not
smaller than 18 by 40 feet, of
concrete or brick construction,
with concrete floors, metal type
roof, sealed overhead doors, metal
window frames and equipment for
oil or gas heat.
3. Obtain from at least 15 men
of the community a written agree
ment to enroll in the fire-fighting
class conducted by the State De
partment of Education, and parti
cipate in the rural fire department.
The provisions respecting size
of lots and buildings would not
apply to existing fire stations.
For the purpose of purchasing
fire-fighting equipment, the direc
tor and supervisor of Newberry
County would be authorized from
time to time to borrow such
amounts requested by the Board
of Rural Fire Control. The loans
would be made from the state
sinking fund and would be limit
ed to a maximum of $60,000 at
any one time. They would be re
paid through the proceeds of a
county property tax levy.

cert which will be held this year
on Friday, May 12 at SiOp pun. in

riety of music will be presented.
The concert will be divided into
four short sections. The first two

al band style and a group of local
