The scrub team played a great game on last Friday against the Georgia Medical college. Although playing against a team which outweighed them twenty-five pounds to the man, and which was composed of several former football stars, the scrubs were not in the least. rattled and went in the game with the true Carolina spirit. The Georgia eleven was composed of men who have 'done good service on niy a football field. Among these were Bunch, a former Clemson man; Browin, for three years quarter back for the University of Georgia, and Mills, brother of our own scrub Mills, who played fullback for David son the past fev years. Carolina kicked off to Georgia, who by a series of line bucks gradually carried the ball toward Carolina's goal. The Gamecocks worked hard, but could not hold the plunges of Georgia's heavy backs, and after six minutes of p)lay Georgia carried the ball over for the first and only touch dlown of the game.

In a game filled with surprises and spectacular plays, Carolina de feated Charleston College in a grid iron bout Thursday, October 28. The game was pulled off on Dav,is field and resulted in the score of 17 to I1. Our squad has been against unusually strong teams throughout the first part of the season, so that ve ;cored our first touch dowin in Thu rsday's game. 'The Carolina bunch won on clean, straight football. No fake plays were tried and the forward pass was used but once. She, however, man ifestly had the advantage over the Charleston boys in line of weight. Our line was much stronger than theirs, an( they w%,ere unable to re-;st our line plunges, excel)t once, when they held us for downis eight yards from goal. Our back field showed considerable imlprovement in receiving an( bringing in ptunts. It (li(ln't fumble a single ptut. This of course helped materially in win ning the game. T1he College of Charleston cer tainly hes a plucky team notwith standling its lightness of weight.
