BLUE STOCKINGS
TAKEN INTO CAMP
P. C. Loses By a Small
Score.
Carolina-7, P. C.-4.. Yes, that's
the way the score stood when the ref
eree's whistle ended the battle on Da
vis Field Saturday afternoon. And
a battle it was from the moment "Rock"
Snipes put his foot in the ball for the
kickoff, until the aforementioned whis
tic gave forth its shrill otes. There i
were thrills aplenty, and many a time <
during the afternoon the fans were I
brought to their, feet by a spectacularly I
completed pass or a fleet dash around(
an end for several yards.
The light team from Clinton uncorkedi
a braiid of play worthy of any college,
aad it is no longer a mystery why or
how they defeated the heavier David
son team two weeks ago. They fought
every minute of the struggle, and this <
same fight enabled then to carry the I
ball within striking distance of Caro- i
lina's goal line before they were stop- I
ped by the warriors in Garnet and Black.
Again, this fight is going to make the
P. C. team a factor to he reckoned with
in the race for the state championship
this year. and several other teams in
the state are going to have a stiff propo
sition to face when they encounter the
Presbyterians.
But nw we must remember that
there was another team out there fight- t
ing too, and this team was the grand
old machine of the Gamecocks. The
Garnet and Black of Carolina was well
defended on last Saturday afternoon,
and the memory of tlt game will liii
ger long in the minds of Carolina's sup
porters. It will be hard to forget how
"Rock" Snipes drove through the Blue
Stockings' line for consistent gains,
and how Bill Holland, Sizemore, and
j. ). Parler performed likewise, and
last but far from least how "Racehorse"
Amlbs skirted those ends for yards at a
clip. "Rocky" got away to a had start
at first but came back strong in tile
third period when the Gamecocks made
their tritumphal march down the field to
a touchdown. Bill Holland was a can
non)I ball oil the offense and a stone wall
on the defense. Frankie Meyer was t
right on the job as usual on the right
wing of the line. Then there was Jo
Wheeler-but pshaw, we might as well
say the whole eleven of thei played
first class hall throughout-fior theyi
surely did. By the way, did yon notice
that "',al,a" Chappelle is still able to
heat the einls downii on punt, and drop I
the man with tile ball in his tracks
almost.
The feature playing for the Il1e I
Stockings was contribute'd by Mlasotn at I
Ieft end. and 'earce all( Wilson in the
hackfield. When Wilson went back you
could look for an end run, 'cause that
boy could cancel space and annihilate
distanice. Ilndmanlh at <tuarte'r rani thei.

GAMECO
CHURCHES ENTERTAIN
CAROLINA STUDENTS
Columbians Host to Univer- I
sity Men.
On Friday evening, October 6th, the
:hurches of Columbia entertained the
tuidents of the University at five in- r
frmal receptions held in various s
hurches throughout the city. The af- i
fairs were all decided successes, and t
reatly enjoyed by the students attend- z
ng them. The inclemency of hte weath- t
-r probably kept a timid few away, but <
here was crowd enough at each church
o have a jolly good time. The stu- c
lents not only had a good time at the u
'eceptions but they made friends who
vill aid them in allying themselves t
loser with the churches of the city. t
The Presbyterians and Associate Re
ormed P'resbytel ian students were en
ertained at thhc Smith Memorial Chapel
if the First Presbyterian church; the
laptists at the Sunday school rooms of
he First laptist church. the l'pisco
>alians at Satterlee hall, and the Mleth
>lists at Washington Street church and F
Ulain Street church. Interesting pro- t
trams were carried out at all five r
-hurches. and the students attending ,
vish that such events would come often- c
r. especially if the fair inhabitants of
C. and Chicora would always be on1
land to help entertain.
We of the University are glad to see
hat the churches of the city are inter- a
'sted in us and mr welfare. The event I
Vhich took place on last Friday even-- I
iig was the first of that kind attempted 1)
>y the city churches, and we are de
ighted to know that it is to he repeated;
iext year, the churches having planned y
o make these receptions an annual
'vent. Since the churches of the city
tre hacking us, fellows, let's get behind o
he churches and do something for them t
iesitIes eat up ice cream alld sand- t
Viches; let's take an active part il 4

RATTLE OF THE
CAROLINAS
jamecocks Meet Team From
Old North State.
Tomorrow our gridiron warriors in
,ade the land of the Tarheels and will
iake an effort to avenge themselvcs for
undry indignities suffereI at their hands
ii times past. It will lie rmebmered
hat last vear the Gamecocks had Fet
er's men backed off the map and a
auchdown to the had until the last
uarter when a passing attack with some
pod work by Lowe and Johnston
vened the count in the last few min
tes of the game.
This was tragic. but it was one of
lie two touchdowns chalked up agaitist
lie Garnet and Black last season, and
a we must give "credit to whom credit
Sduie" and simply hope that no such
ntoward accident will snatch a victory
ron us this year.
The game should be a corker, from
very standpoint. Both elevens stand
igh in the ranking of Southern foot
all teams, and should be very nearly in
>p form for this game. There is rival
y of long standing between the two
cmils, vitthusiasin runs high when
ver they meet on the gridiron. In
letger the Gamecock has one of the
est coaches in the country,while I,tz
r is the sort of a man who works his
layers hard and has the force of char
eter that enables him to get the very
est oit of them at all times. He is a
reat coach, not only of football, but of
asketball and baseball as well.
The South Carolina teams have been
nproving steadily with each year (f
letzger's leadership and wve have a fine
lance to grah the gane from the Tar
eels tomorrow. The small scores of
ir first two gaies have been causing
mnsiderable worry to the supporters of
ic Garnet and Black, but there should
r n1o anxiety on this score. With pre
ason training prolhibited by S. 1. \.

Carolina had a distinct advantage over
he visitors in line play, both on of
Iensive and defensive work, but with
'linton carrying the ball P. C. showed
iwer n end runs that was 111 to ie
lenied. Time and again the Presby

ne and Clinton would rush through
or gains of from five to twenty-five
