GAMECOCKS WIN IN THANKGIVING GAME (coNT:rm) IiWM P.GE ONE.) dropping the Citadel backs in three out of every four plays that came anywhere near his direction. His presence of mind and fleet feet were the means whereby the Gamecocks made their first touchdown, when he recovered a fumble and raced 40 yards for a tally. Hampton and Moore also ex hibited some real football, while the work of the two ends Clark and Weston was well within the All-State class. In the backfield Osborne at quarter was the shining star both in his superb generalship and his allround work at ad vancing the ball. Dago easily had the better of his opponent in the punting matches which featured the first and third quarters. Red Turner at left half was in his glory as a line plunger ripping off long gains with apparent ease. Citadel's best bets were its backfield men, but these were so closely watched that they were able to make but little headway. Whitaker at left half made the only long gain for the sol diers altho Dotterer showed up with some first class broken field running in returning punts Taber's open field tackling was also notable especially in com parison with that of some of his teammates. The game was marred by several rather doubtful deci sions and frequent penalties on both sides. Citadel won the kick off and defended the last goal. Both teams able to make but little headway at straight football turned to punting with the odds in Osborne's favor. Dotterrer's third punt went out on the 45 yard line. Osborne took five around end. Osborne then for ward passed to Weston who caught the ball only to fumble it when tackled. Beall recover ed the ball and raced 40 yards undisturbed for the first and as events showed only necessary touchdown. Hampton kicked goal and quarter ended 7 to 0. Carolina's second tally came in the second quarter following some spectatacular line plung ing and three successful passes. The priod opened with the us ual punting duel. A forward pass Osborne to Beall, Turner's run over tackle and a penalty put the ball on Citadel's 8-yard line. H-ere Carolina was penal ized 15 yards but a pass Os borne to Seaborn for ten left the Gamecocks in striking dis tance. A double pass Waring to Osborne to Weston netted a touchdown. Hampton missed goal. Half ended Carolina 13, Citadel 0. The Citadel's attack took on a little life in the third quarter and the Bulldogrs made several first downs but failed to even threaten the Gamecock's posts. The Gamecocks offense was: somewhat crippled by the ab sence of Seaborn and Weston who had been injured in the second half. Brown who took Seaborn's place was able to gain almost as well as usual despite his broken shoulder but was hindered in his defensive work as one arm was practical ly useless. Beall's alertness again figur ed greatly in the Gamecock's last score when he recovered a fumble in midfield giving the ball to his team for the drive on the goal. A line play failed but a pass Osborne to Beall netted 22 yards. Brown went over tackle for the touch down. Osborne punted out for position and Hampton kicked goal. Game ended with the score 20 to 0 in Carolina's fa vor. Carolina (20). Citadel. (0). Carolina.
