last night 10 to 1 On Thursday night in one of the closest and most bitterly fought games of the season Hartsville defeated the locals 8 to 7 Rube Wilson lanky Camden lefthander was in rare form last night and it probably would have made little difference as to which Sumter pitcher worked as Wilson allowed only three hits two by Bruce Rey holds and one by Ellis Beard The only time Wilson got into trouble was when he was generous with his bases on balls single with Harry Stokes on base as a result of a walk produced only run in the sixth Robinson Joe Blalock and Stone pounded the ball hard for the winners and accounted for most of the Camden runs Sumter ued five pitchers in an effort to halt the attack On Thursday night the Fiskateers spotted Hartsville two runs in the first then came back to move ahead with a big second inning 4 to 2 The Soconos added another in the third and after Manager Hobbs had been chased by Umpire Robinson at the end of the fourth the visitors put across four runs to take the lead Dennis relieved Chick Cheek during the inning and allowed Hartsville only one unearned run the rest of the way Meanwhile Sumter was hitting Leonard hard but the blows come at the right moments until the ninth With two down and Goodwin on first as a result of a single Harry Stokes tripled to the left field fence Claffey hit a hot giounder to first and Thomas made a nice catch

extension service economist Despite the increase Dr Rochester said that only one farm out of 1 1 or nine per cent of the total in the state reported trucks in 1945 He pointed out that good roads an dtransportation of farm products by motor trucks enabled farmer to market products quicker and cheaper than when done by mule and horse transportation He said the use of more truck on farms was in line with a trend toward more commercialized agriculture in the state with farmers depending more and more on the sale of products-and purchase of food and clothing items rather than growing
