At the Central High School games
last week there appeared on the floor
of the armory a runner. He came out
as the special $500 was about to
start and warmed up by doing few
laps. but did not start In the race.
This runner was Solomon Crowley,
the famous Rock Hill College boy.
and he came all the way from Mary
lowed to start? He Is a regular run
ner, and claims he can even beat
Mr.. Haussling at running for mayor.

Solomon must have been disap-
pointed after coming all the way
from Maryland Perhaps he had
trouble assuring the clerk of the
course as to whether or not he was
in condition for such race. In re-
gard to beating the mayor, if such
is the case, maybe he can get job
with the Republican party.
