Score: Davidson, 22; Carolina, o. THE GAMECOCKS SPIRIT. If Carolina ever showed the game cock spirit, she did yesterday in fight ing against those mighty odds of 22 points made by Davidson in the first half.' The tale of the two games, that of Clemson against Davidson, and Carolina against Davidson, is told in the halves. Clemson was scored on in the second half and Carolina in the first. The Garnet and Black settled down to a hard fight after the first half, and the game.those boys did put cj up was a caution. c4 It is practically a sure thing that if the same weather conditions had pre vailed the day before, the story of the Clemson-Davidson cdntest might have CI been different. Davidson's style of play is open, as was shown yesterday, and they did not have the opportunity of bringing into play the formations in the game with Clemson. Davidson has a fast squad, and her team is espe cially balanced for the new style of football. In yesterday's game on the Carolina side, Holmes starred. He was good on gaining ground, and went after his opponents hard. It was Holmes' best game for this year beyond any doubt. Holmes is a good football player, and he showed what he could do yesterday in fighting against odds. Belser was - terror, especially in the second half He carried the ball like nothing could ever stop him, and on tackles lie wa. very strong. It might be well to ad just here that some of Carolina's mer tackled too high. Hammond displa3d good judgmen also in the second half in generaling " I, It was this largely and th detLci n11 .k of the Carolina tean thohe G;ar,nu .. '1 Ulack 'out o Perrin hits the a i r," m 6 t.A;;.. yesterday were very cousitm had Dlargan played a good end, he irha one of the University's fastest -men. On the Davidson team, Kluttz coul carry off honors with any of them. H is a fast end, and his work in receivin forward passes and in down the fiel tackles and receiving of punts place him way and above the average en of today. The development of tli open play calls for much work froi the end, and Kluttz Is there lIn ever department of the game. Clark sa heavy 'line bucker, and h gains yesterday were steady. Elliott attracted very much attention by his playing. He carried the ball especially well from formation, and keeps his head at all stages of the game. Moore's work at tackle, and Dunn's on the oth er side of the line, was good. One thing the game will do for the Carolina team-it will season the play ers. The squad has shown the lack of experience, and the game will help them as nothing else can. The men that played in the game will know more about football by the playing of this game than any other they have had for the season, and the result is. bound to be beneficial. On the side line were a number of foTmer Carolina stars; also many of Davidson's od players. Ralph K. Foster,. the star end- of the class of 1905, was there; Eugene Oii*r.Caro lina's former captain and tackle; Ben Wyman, 'o4; Dick Reed, who played one of the tackles when Oliver was captain of the Gamecocks; Buddy Moore, of the 1905 team; Dr. C. A. Foster, '99, a former Carolina captain; Tom McGptcheon, '02; John and Sam Wilds, two players on the 1903, 1904 and 1905 teams. Ladson Boyle, of Sumter, a member of Cairolina's 'Var sity in days gone by, and a number of others were there. Purple and Gold Defeat ed by Red and Black Teams Very.Evenly Matched in First Half. Tigers' Loss of Robbs and White Practically Lost the Game. Davidson won from Clemson on the athletic field at the fair grounds last Wednesday morning, in a game which, on account of the rain and mud, was made rather slow. It had rained all during the night and day before, and fit continued throughout the game, thus ruining a game in .which it would have been hard to say to wvhomi the victo:, goid belong.

No score was made by either side during the first half, but throughout the entire half, and especially the first part of it, Clemson had a decided advantage, and it seemed as if the Tigers were going to either give the Davidsonians a defeat or a very close fight. In the first part of the second half both teams played evenly until Robbs, who seemed to be the backbone of the Clemson team, got hurt. Shortly after this White, who played end for Clem son, was also put out. This double misfortune for the Tigers seemed to be the sole cause of their defeat, for it was after that that Davidson made all her scores. With the exception of the very fast ends of the Davidson team, Clemson's line was somewhat stronger, and it was here that the Clemson quarterback used poor judgment by not making line bucks the principal play. Taking everything into consideration, the two teams would have been evenly matched and it would have been a "toss-up" as to who would have won the game if Clemson hadn't lost two of her best players. Furman Won at Basket Ball The. State: In a fast and exciting game of bas ketball at the fair grounds yesterday morning theurmn five defat he Carohl ive by a score of 21 to 19. When the fact is considered that neither five has had the benefit of much experience, and that neither quintet is composed of old heads at the game, it was a very good exhibi tion. This is the first intercollegiate game Carolina has ever played, and Furman has played only two. Vassy, for Car olina, and Poteat and Fender, for Fur man, did good work in the game yes terday. The number of fouls called in the game was due to the fact that the game was played on a slippery field and a number of falls were made by members of both clubs. The game of basketball is a very fascinating one, and is rapidly forgink to the front as a potent factor in Southern athletics. It serves to break the intervening period of idleness be tween the football and baseball sea sons, and it is played generally by both football and baseball players to keep in condition. Carolina students are -ex hibiting a great interest in the game at the University, and an effort is now being made to arrange further games, and there is a possibility of a Northern trip being attempted. The game is very popular in Vir ginia, and Washington and Lee, Wil liam and Mary and other colleges and universities have strong fives. If Car olina could' secure ganmes with these quintets It would prove of inestimable value to them in learning the 'game. With a little more practice they will no doubt develop into a hard proposi tion, to handle. The fiye is being coacl1ed-.gy Physical Dir4ctor McCar thy; of ihi University, and J. -H.
