GEORGE DUNCAN.

George Duncan, English profess
sional, thinks he has a good chance
to cop Americas National Open
golf title this fall.
He won the English National
Open a year ago at Deal. But the
peppery Jock Hutchinson took his
measure in the recent matches at
St. Andrews.
Hutchinson is fast golfer, but
Duncan is faster.
The Briton races around the links
so fast his caddies can't keep up.
He doesn't waste any time in
making his shots.
LIE Ball Player.
His idea of driving the ball is the
same as that of the ball player who
hits the first ball pitched.
Ted Ray, present holder of the
American National Open title, plans
to returnI to defend his honors.
In Duncan he'll face a worthy RI
val.
He toured this country in 1911,
playing over 20 matches on this
side.
Together with Abe Mitchell, En-
glands long distance driver, Dun
can will tour again
They have scheduled So exhibi-
ton matches, most OF which will
be played in the east and middle
west.
If it is possible to arrange a fly
ing trip to the Pacific coast, the
English invaders will take it.

New York. July S.-Georges Car
pentier has been accused by the
experts of using poor judgment in
his fight with Jack Dempsey. In
stead of attempting to outslug the
worlds champion it was generally
supposed that the feet Frenchman
would use his feet to keep away
from Dempsey.
Carpenter admits he did make
mistake but that he could not
help it.
Il thought I was strong enough
to hold him in the clinches. Once
in the first round 1 did get an mp
percut over in a clinch but that
ended it," the Frenchman said to-
day.
Georges explained that he had

met an auto with its lights afare
that he reached down and worked
his dinaming outfit. In each case
he received an almost instantaneous
response by the lights of the ap-
preaching auto becoming dim. He
states that mis- observation is, that

The Sunltef.
Tobacco Market
Manager C. O. Watts of
Farmers Warehouse Work
ing For Next Seasons
Crop

MT. C. o. Watts. the manager OF
the Farmers Tobacco Warehouse
on East Liberty street was in Sum-
ter last Tuesday and had quite a
conference regarding the building
up of the Sumter tobacco market
for 1922 with E. I. Reafdon, secre-
tary Of the Sumter County Chamber
Of Commerce, Mr.. G. A. Lennon,
president of the Farmers Tobacco
Warehouse Company. and Mr.. S. L.
Roddey, president of the Young
Mems Business League Of Sumter.
The first thing Mr.. Watts did w .s
to arrange with DeLorme's Phar-
macy to sell tobacco seed at rea-
sonab1e cost to farmers, but Mr..
Watts also hopes that if any other
seed dealers desire to sell tobacco
seed they will do so as there has
been an agreement between tobac-
co warehousemen Of South Caro-
lima that there Will be no more free
distribution of tobacco seed. The
Sumter County Chamber of Com
fnerce served widespread notice
last fall and spring that farmers
had better save seed, no. only for
their own use, but because local
farmers who did save seed, could
Sell hundreds of pounds Of tobacco
seed to those who did not save seed.
DeLorme's Pharmacy viii give
preference to local farmers who
have seed to sell, paying a reason
able market price for same for as
much seed as he needs. 1t is pre-
'sumed that other local seed deal
ers interested will do the same
thing.
The Sumter County Chamber of
Commerce and the Young Mems
Business League Of Sumter have
arranged to work together to do
what these organizations can do to
build up a bigger tobacco market in
Sumter and with the cooperation of
Mr.. Watts, and the advantageous
prestage given Sumter's market by
our large and modern tobacco stem
merry, together with the assistance
Of Sumter's banks and other busi-
ness establishments, inducing their
customers to plant limited acTeages
Of tobacco on every farm where
conditions and laoor are suitable
for tobacco cultivation. proper har-
vesting, and curing. it is hoped
that large acreage Of tobacco Will
be planted as a partial Substitute
for cotton as cash crop.

Comments by ''Hagood" Bethea

Mr. Editor:
One week ago today attended
meeting in Opera House. It had
been we'll advertised but attendance
did not measure up to expectations.
Although matters Of grave import
ance were under discussion: Co.
operative Marketing and Co-opc-
rative Farming. Out on the street
heard a reason given for slender
attendance disappointment. Years
ago how many the books did not
say, a boy, keeping sheep, in order
to have some fun cried, wolf! wolf.
wolf! with the result that the
whole country side turned out. The
next day he repeated it with q
smaller crowd. The third day the
wolf came and he cried out in
earnestness and terror but no one
came. Certain, men were adver-
tised on uncertainty to make ad-
dresses, but failed to appear. un-
derstand this has happened moro
than once before. I know more
than one man who came from re-
mote corners Of the county just to
hear those talks.
What is said above is not despair
agement of addresses. we heard.
Messrs. Scarborough, Mcleod.
Jennings and Strauss. BY all means
let cooperative marketing and
farming be stressed and let our
people do these things which
means their salvation. Let the can
merry business, the creamery and
such industries be discussed and
understood.

The responsibility for the failure
of DR.. Clarence Poe and DR.. W. W.
Long to attend the meeting does
not rest upon A1r. J. Frank VIII
liams,; county demonstration agent
who advertised the meeting. He
was instructed to do so by the Dis
trict Agent at the request Of the
officers of South Carolina Cotton
Association. NO one in Sumter
knew that Drs. Poe and Long
would not be here until just be-
fore the meeting assembled.
