Playing with spirit, accuracy and
perfect cohesion. the Columbia Y. M.

scores were 21-18, 21-12 and 21-14.
The contest, though witnessed by
only q small crowd, was exciting
throughout. as well az spectacular in
Ithe axtreme. The Sumter lads strug-
gled hard. but the speed and team
work of the capital city team were
too much. The Columbia backs did
especially conaistent work. while the
nat men displayed numerous daahes
of brilliancy. For Sumter. Levi, Nc.

RECALL PETITIONS IN COLUMBIA
The Movement Started Against Coun.
cilmen DuPre and Asbill Accord
ing to Report.

Columbia, Jan. 19.-The total of
appropriations carried in the 1915
budget as adopted by the city council
of Columbia today, is S713,3S237; the
estimated income of the city is the
same. This is an increase of approxi-
mately 100000 over last years ,ex-
penditures.
1t is understood that petitions ask
ing for the recall of Councilr,en
Ernest M. DuPre and c. M. Asbill are
being circulated. A recall petition
aimed at Mayor Lewie Griffith was
circulated some weeks ago. but it has
never been presented to the govern
or. It is understood that friends of
the mayor arc behind the recall ne
tions against Councilmen DuPre and
Asbill. One Of their complaints is that
the city council deprived the mayor of
his legal rights when they took the
control of the police department out
of his hands and gave it to Councilman
DuPre.
