Both teams have fine records for the season. Neither has bowed to a foe as yet. It will be a clash between two wonderful teams representing two state institutions that have been warm for friendly rivals for many years. Both are Southern conference members. The South Carolina Gamecocks have defeated Erskine College, University of Virginia, University of Maryland P.C. and the University of Chicago. Clemson defeated Newberry College,Au burn, Davidson, North Carolina State and Erskine. It will thus be seen that - both teams have impressive records. South Carolina is coached this year by Billy Laval, this being his first season at the University, while Josh Cody, former assistant Vanderbilt coach, is in his second season at Clemson. The game will be witnessed by the Governor of the State and his party, the presidents of the two institutions and their official parties, the president of the state fair and many other people high in public and social life of the state. The Governor will oc cupy a box on the Carolina side of the field for one half and on the Clemson side for the other half. Rnth teams promise to be in good condition for the classic. They have been exceedingly fortunate in having gone through the season thus far without serious njury to any of their men. Always a great game, this year's battle looms up as one of the best in the history of the contests between the two institutilons and the outcome will be awaited with keen interest all over the country.
