CAROLINA vs. CITADEL DAVIS FIELD THANKSGIVING
CHANTICLEERS STORM
CITADEL THURSDAY

Hungry as Lsual.
The University of South Caro
lina meets the Citadel, the Mili
tary College of South Carolina,
in th 3ir annual football game
Thanksgiving day in Columbia.
This is to be the last game of
the season and as they are old
rivals much interest is shown in
the coming contest and a great
many alumni of both schools are
expected to be in town for the'
battle.
The Citadel plays Carolina
under S. I. A. A. rules. There
fore the same team that repre
sented the Gamecocks on the
gridiron before the Clemson Ti
gers will strive to down the Bull
dogs next Thursday. As the
Citadel has played only a few
teams this year that Carolina has i
it is hard to compare the strength
of the respective teams from the
scores but Dame Rumor has it
that the Bulldogs have put out a
snappy fighting team and one
that will be a worthy opponent
of the naked Gamecock spurs.
The Citadel cadets are expect
ed to come up, as usual, to see
the game. This coupled with:
the fact that this game closes
the season will make it a galai
day.
