THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 196? Florida Man Succumbs Here Charles Lloyd Raley, 54, of Haines City, Fla., died suddenly here Tuesday afternoon while ▼isiting his brother-in-law, H. D. Phillips, of 2601 Fair Ave. He was a native of Camden, •on of Mrs. Ella Newman Raley £ad the late Charles Raley. He had lived in Winnsboro 20 years before moving to Florida nine years ago where he operated the Haley Ticking Co* at Haines CUj. He was a member of Stephen Green Memorial Baptist Church in Winnsboro. Surviving in addition to his mother are his wife, Mrs. Anne Ruth Phillips Raley;' a son, Chas. Henry Raley of Haines City; a daughter, Miss Ruth Renee Raley of Haines City; a sister, Mrs. Monroe Spires of Blackstock; and two brothers, William and H. G. Raley, both of Winnsboro. Funeral arrangements will be announced. Mr. and Mrs. L. Hart Jordan and daughters, Frances and Mary Hart, spent last week visiting points of interest in Washington, County Boys Could Be In World Series Two Newberry County boys— now known throughout the world of baseball lovers—were the to pic of Jim Anderson’s “Top of the Morning” column in the Greenville News Tuesday. Mr. Anderson speculates on a “New berry County” World Series, thusly: “Wouldn’t it be great if they both could be in the Series!” Har ry Hedgepath exclaimed yester day. The idea is not so remote. New berry’s Hedgepath is hoping to see the Chicago White Sox oppose the San Francisco Giants in the World Series next October. Two boys he formerly coached are playing big roles in their teams being at the top of each league. And it’s almost a parallel story as both were pitchers who only needed a chance to prove themselves. Johnny Buzhardt won his 8th game Sunday for the White Sox. One more victory and he will have had his best season in the six years he has been in the majors. Buzhardt’s eight wins are help ing the Chisox share the Ameri can League lead with the Yank ees. Should he win eight more, Senor A1 Lopez’ team will be hard to shake in the pennant race. Billy O’Dell was after his 10th win last night at San Francisco, as he faced the Dodgers’ Sandy Koufax. He’s now a gem of the Giants pitching staff. Billy and Buzz, the Newberry County boys, are making home- folks buzz with their excellent years. There was a “Billy O'Dell Day” in Newberry last year after Billy came home from the World Series. Maybe this year they’ll have to stage a “Billy and Buzz” day. SCOUTS PASSED UP PRIZES There are plenty of scouts with red faces who passed up prosper ity for their clubs in not latching onto the Newberry lefty and Prosperity righthander. The Orioles signed O’Dell for a $12,500 bonus after his junior year at Clemson. That’s been proven to be a bargain price. The Cubs signed Buzhardt for peanuts by comparison to his worth, after a scout had seen him pitch in a friend’s yard in New berry. “There was so much difference in their physical makeup,” says Hedgepath, who had the pitchers at different times in Legion ball. “Billy was unusually fast for a little fellow. He is one of the fast est I’ve ever seen. Control was a gift to him. He’s always been a control pitcher,” continued Hedge- path. “Johnny was a different type. He was a big boy who couuld ov erpower you. But he also had a good curve ball. All he ever need ed was a chance.” BOTH WERE DOWN AFTER ’60 O’Dell admits toying with the idea of quitting baseball in the winter of 1961. He had only a 7-5 year in ’60 with the Giants. But he needed the baseball money to carry out his long range plans on a farm near Newberry. ■Buzhardt was on the down hearted side that winter, too. He had been through two terrible seasons with the Phillies, 5-16 in 1960 and 6-18 in 1961. In several of the losses he had pitched good enough to win. But Lopez was promising him a good chance with the White Sox in the spring of ’61. Last year was a little better for Johnny, who is handsome enough for the movies. He had a 8-12 year. With an 8-2 record already this season, his fast ball is humming and the curve is breaking. As for O’Dell, now a mainstay on the Giants mound staff, the plans for a cattle farm will have to wait awhile longer. He does have a few thousand Christmas trees on his place. But Christmas will come in October for Billy O. if the Giants make the Series again. Wouldn’t it really be something if the hunting buddies of Newber ry County could oppose each oth er! O’DELL A ‘RIDGELAPPER’ This week’s issue of the Sport ing News has a feature story on O’Dell. It tells of a happier O’Dell in the last two years, because A1 Dark gave him a chance to pitch. Billy was bom on Feb. 10, 1933, in Whitmire, “The land of the Sandlappers and Ridgerunners,” says the Sporting News article. “But where he was bom he was neither.” Billy is quoted as saying, “Where we lived, we had a little sand and a few ridges. We were somewhere in between. Guess you’d call us Ridgelappers.” The article continues, “He grew up with a gun in his hand, dogs at his heel, and limitless, spectacular bountiful, wilderness filled witfh exciting game all around him. He was a country boy. Still is. He talks with a soft Southern drawl and, when he talks, he talks mostJ D. C.

FLOYD Mrs. Denson Dies Mrs. Maggie Davenport Adams Denson, 83, of Route 3, Newberry, died Thursday afternoon at the Newberry County Memorial Hospi tal after an illness of the past sev eral years. Mrs. Denson was born and rear ed in Newberry County in the Bush River section, a daughter of the late James H. and Adella Reeder Davenport. She made her home in Whitmire for 27 years prior to making her home with her daughter, Mrs. Cay (Essie) Ba^er, Rou£e 3, Newberry, for the past 17 years. She was a member of the Bush River Baptist Church. She was twice married, first to the late Eddie Lee Adams, then to the late John A. Denson. Both died a number of years ago.

Inter ment was in Springdale Cemetery in Newberry. ly of home and hunting and grow ing things from the earth and raising things upon it.” HE NOW GOES FULL GAME O’Dell got a “seven-inning” tag with the Orioles after injuring his back in an exhibition game. He had to wear a brace. “I’d go along fine for five or six innings, then the brace would be gin to tighten on me,” he is quot ed. “I’d lose my stuff. I’d get lift ed and, after a couple of these ex periences Richards kept saying publicly that I was nothing more than a seven-inning pitcher. I was branded. I carried that brand to the Giants.” The “brand” has disappeared. ■Billy has now won more major league games than he has lost. And his control has been proven. “To win, I’ve got to work the ball around, to spots,” he says. “In and out and up and down. When I’m wild, I’m like so many other pitchers. I don’t walk many bat ters. When I’m wild, I’m missing the spots, not the plate.” * . ———— CLASSIFIED® AOS Last Call For Free Camp Trip COLUMBIA., June 15. — Last call for free one week camping trip!
