The overhead game played a big part
the scoring, but that was not all. Brice
d Jazz hit the line hard and often

cond stanze they were practically ir
sistible.
Rogers, Johnson, Boatwright, Wright

eir own way on sweeping runs around

The statistics of the game are shown
tabulated form elsewhere and will
t be spoken of here, sufficient to say
ey show Carolina outplaying the visi
rs in all departments.
Due to the amount of open air work
e fans were given thrills a plenty.
Shuford twice gave the Carolina sup
rters a good scare when in the first
id third periods he intercepted passes
d ran half the length of the field,
th times being outrun and stopped by
ill Boyd, the Gamecock's speedy cen
r. This' same Shuford defeated the
irds in Raleigh last year when he did
e identical trick but was not dragged

The work of the line men in a game
not as spectacular or noticeable as

st year's Fresh team, played a wonder

LOOKING BACK A WEEK
IN FOOTBALL
BY .AY M. BEE.
The proud old bird-the Gamecock
of the University of South Carolina
came through with the game with North
Carolina State last Saturday with honor
and dignity not only to himself but to
the football fraternity of South Caro
lina and to the state in general. Of the
different gridiron contests 'last week
between teams of South Carolina and
of other states, Carolina was the only
one able to ring up a victory. And it
was a deserved victory, for the Birds
outplayed the Wolfpack, a team much
heavier than the Gamecocks, but the
attentici of the reader is invited to the
first syllable of the of the Carolina
team's nickname. GAME written in
large letters was the spirit of the men
who focght so valiantly against super
iority in strength.
The score down of University field
was 10 to 0 aid as is well known South
Carolina held the 10.
Clemsi and Presbyterian staged a
South Carolina contest. The final score
read 14 to 0 in favor of the Tigers, but
