BLUE LAW STOPS SUNDAY GOLFING Golambia, . C., Foursome Ends in Police Court Scene Columbia, S C., Feb. 28 (A—Golt bugs, many of whom have to wait six days between whacks at the balls, may expect no discrimination in thelr favor in Governor Richards’ campaign to enforce South Caro- lina’s century-old Sunday closing law. This was clearly indicated when four players, en route to links in Greenville, were arrested yesterday, the state's second ‘“blue” Sunday. These were the only arrests, but the 1ld was generally reported as clamp- od down tight in all principal cities, r more so at least than a week be- ore when first attempts were made enforce the law. Prostor A. Bonham, a former so- licitor and state senator, and W. G. Perry, Jr.,, John Cushman and David I"erguson, three Greenville business ren, were the golfers arrested. When rleased on their recognizance, they beagn to play anyway, but were warned that it would result in their being placed in the “lock-up.” They heeded the warning, but finished their game at Biltmore, N. C., where they drove by automobile, and later announced they would carry the case to court. Gasoline stations, garages, soda fountains, cigar stores and restau- rants generally were closed down in the larger cities, while drug stores that remained open catered only to| medicine purchases. Cigarette bootleggers were Teport- | ed operating in Greenville, solling them for 50 cents a package. Newsboys were chased from the | streets in Alken, a resort town, al-| though golt and polo were played without any arrests. All amusements, however, were conducted outside the city limits. At Camden, another re- sort center, announcements were made in all the hotels that the law had been observed. Columbia quietly observed the closing order, while at Charleston resorts were that only street cars and taxicabs operated. | LEATES SO0V ESTATE | Realty Is Principal Item in Hold- Alex Bessoff, | | ings of According To Inventory Filed Today.
