(Wlildcat) Hines of the boxing team is clamoring for several more ?len. to come out ,and( try for places, there are at least three more positions that must he filled before the schedule can be completed. For several years Carolina has had a good team but has not been able to get meets as the other- South Carolina schools dlid not p)ut out boxing teams. However a good schedule has heeni pre pared with Palmetto state schools and a northern included. At present the team is composed of the following enen : J. F. Allistani, of Newark, N.

Dead; Long Liv Woodrow Defeats Legare In a spectacular game of football be tween Woodrf)w aid Legare dormitories played on Davis Field Monday after noon some rare exhibitions of football tactics and scicnce was displayed. The losers played a hard and fast game but the winners played as equally as hard and more effectively, the score showsi this Woodrow 14, Legare 7. To name the stars one would have to call the roll of both teams. But as every team has its Bill Thorpe, Frankie Meyer or J. C. Long, so these teams also had a few highly polished gold stars, more commonly called "Bright Spots.' For Woodrow, Craw ford showed up exceliently in line bucks, which reaped many five and ton yards gain. Tie tackle positions were held down in won derful style by McFadden and Jeter, the latter hitting them so hard that one of his victims was knocked completely out. both of these men would be great assets to coach Metzger. Gaston the tall full back, needs special mentit%n, one can not imagine the numbers of worthy football players we have that are not out for our varsity, for this hugh fellow has every characteristic of a "Wonder Man." Abratus out- tall senior and assistant Chemistry Professor played great at end and showed wonderful grit when he re sumed his position-after havi.ng been knocked cold. For Legare, 'Irock was the shining star, tearing off many long gains around end and many times carrying the ball thru his heavier opplonents li.ne. Sloan and Aycock alos played brilliantly, the latter running 45 yards for a touchdmin. Altho somewhat lighter than their op ponents Legare put up) a scrappy fight, holding \Voodrow to a tie score thru the entire first half. The small dif fereice in the score shows that this gridiron battle was terrifically fought. 'Tle ball was on Woodrow's ten yard line with only a few seconds to play, the spectat ors were in a fever heat of excitement, but Legare lacked the punch, the timei keeper's whistle blew and the thrilling game ended.
