Trick F For V When two machines of equal strength are matched with each other, the only way of wiininr is by taking advantage of soIe break of the fray. Such was the case Saturday, when Furmian's Purple IIurricanle was natched with Carolina's (11aiecock eleven. For nearly three quarters both teanis played football of the most careful kind, each waiting for soile slip-up1) or break that woul give them the golden opportunity of clinching the game, and the state title. For forty minutes, the greater part of the woric was riv eii to the plnters and to the sa fety men, to whon fell the work of running back the ptints. Both lines were seemingly impenetra !)Ie, time aml time again forcing the offensive team to resort to kicking. But in the third quarter, fhe tale was told. - With the ball on her 45 yard litie, Furminl elect ed to punt. The puit was fuinmb led and wits recovered for Fiur m1an by Biuyck. The ball rested oi the one yard line. The stands went into a mass of yells, entreaties, ad vice and prayers. For two plays the Carolina line played up to form, holding the 11u1rricane for ivards to a standstill. Here came n a great piece of strategy. The qluarter back called signls, bult then faked a "signals off"' and in the moment of unexpectanicy. the ball was passed to Poteat and he bucked the line. Leaping, s(IluirmI ing and hurdling lie mnade the re quired distance. Ife had made his tory. McLeod kicked goal. Fur man 7, Carolina 0. Thus was the championship ime decided. From the play as een lp to the time of scorinlg, it. eemed that the gane would result in a tie. "But a fluke or break will win the game for either side" aid the gridiron sages. They were righify one little break, and the lie game w%,as decided. Biut it was a matter of choice, to which side Ihe lreak would fall. Who knows iha Carolina might have been the favored ones of, (notice the if), lie gamiie had1( progre'ssed futrthter w'ithout the P'urple hUrricane scori ng?
