He is chockful of anecdotes about the 10 years he campaigned with his son, always contending for. but never quite attaining the heavyweight crown.

Rev. Pridrren was undecided whether he would try to halt a game tomorrow with the same method he attempted to put into force last Sunday. The minister then took a sound truck to the park and read Scriptures and sang hymns over a loud speaker to the fans at the game. The game continued through nine innings. "I have not decided whether to attempt to halt another game tomorrow on account of curiosity seekers." Hcv.

Pridgen said. He termed Sabbath softball playing as "a desecration of the Lord's Day." Mayor Henry W. Lockwood took iSand in the' matter tonight and firmly stated that neither Rev. rridgen. nor rny other minister, should intertcre.

Polica Department will keep Lockwood said. "After working all week a man has a right to recreation on Sunday." One Charleston minister characterized Rev. Pridgen's activities as peculiar tactics" and an "attempt to force religion down the throats of people."
