NOV B '91 VOL. VII. UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COLUMBIA, S. C., NOVEMBER 1, 1913. No. 6 CAROLINA SCRUBS MEET PORTER VARSITY TODAY Both Teams Strong and Hard Battle is Expected. Porter Eleven Held Citadel to a 0-0 Score---Scrubs Have Been Making Good Showing. This afternoon at 3:30 on Davis Field the Carolina Scrubs will clash with the strong varsity from Porter adilitary Academy. Officials for the game have not been announced. . The fight this afternoon is ex pected to be somewhat more classic than the usual scrub gamc. The Carolina second eleven is a fast, weighty and determined bunch and means to mop up with the lads from the City by the Sea, who are equally determined not to be mopped up. Tie Gamecock's backfield will be fast, probably featuring Per kins, Coggeshall, Edwards, Ruck er and Brooker. The scrubs are not deficient in the line. Ed munds and Fant may be seen at ends and Elmer Waring at cen ter. Captain. McTeer will work out at either tackle or guard. Other linemen are Seay, Crider, McMlllan, Richards, Stoney, "Racehorse," Hanna, Hanahan, and Paul. The Porter team is not by any means composed of weaklings. It is a husky crew and early in the season held the Citadel to a 0-0 score. Under the expert training of Coach Foster the ca dets have developed good form and have shown plenty of rcp and fight. The team arrived in the city at 10:50 last night and were imme diately placed in various rooms on the campus, where in a few minutes they hit the hay in order to be in good trim for this after noon's game. The men who ar rived with Manager Steele were: Martin, Perry, Grissom, Kinloch, McBee, Louis. Lenoir, Smith, Fuller, Hawes, DeLancey, Throw er, Zeigler, Kennedy and Eman uel. Visitors to the Campus.

Breaking ( Rooting on Both Thursday morning, on the Fair Grounds gridiron, the Clemson Tiger won a hard fought battle with the Carolina Gamecock, 32 to0. In spite of the large score run up against the Garnet and Black team, the game was fiercely contested and the loser fought as hard in' thel ast quar ter, when defeat seemed in evitable, as in the first when there was a chance of victory. The loss of Thursday's battle may be attributed to two things, namely, the inability of the Car olina backfield to handle punts and the damper thrown over the whole team by the sad death of Dan Heyward's brother on the day before the game. Throughout the first quarter the game was hotly contested. Both lines. were holding like stone walls notably that of Caro-, lina, which time after time with stood the terrific plunges of the Tiger backs and even threw them for a loss. With only two minutes to play, Webb punted to Heyward. the star halfback fell and as the ball slipped from his fingers, Logan of Clemson seized the ball and dashed across the line for the first score of the game. After this the Clemson ites relied entirely on punting tactics, their back booting the ball down the field time and again, nearly always regaining the pigskin on account of fum bles near the Carolina goal. In the second quarter Caughman, a Columbia product, recovered a fumbled ball and ran 20 yards for the second touchdown for the Purple and Gold. After that the result was no longer in doubt ALUMNI RECORD IS THE LATEST OUT New Publication Will Tell of the University's Progress. Issued Quarterly.
