CEMSON CUBS TAKE VICTORY FROM BIDDIES Contest Barely Escapes Tie - When Game Ends With Score of 2-0 CAUSED BY BLOCKED PUNT Dukes and Fath Lead Brilliant Work of Offense by Gamecock's In a game characterized for its breaks, the Clemson Cubs turned back the Biddies in the preliminary to the Gamecock-Tiger clash by the slim mar gin of 2-0, on Melton Field, when a Carolina punt was blocked and fell on back of the Chicks' goal line late in the fourth quarter. Dukes and Fath of the Biddies and Hallman and Welch of the Cubs were the big guns on offense, this quartet running with the ball in a great num ber of the plays tried by both teams. Clemson made the opening threat when a Carolina punt was downed on her own 22 yard line. The Cubs ad vanced the ball to Carolina's 6 yard line, but three successive plays failed and an attempted field goal went wide. The Biddies cane bear scoring i the second quarter when successive first downs placed the ball on Clem son's 12 yard line, but the next first and ten was missed by a few inches and the ball went over on downs. Near the close of the third quarter the Cubs carried the ball to Carolina's 16 yard marker but again the Chicks held and the ball went over, Brigham punting to safety. The two point margin was secured by Clemson late in the fourth period when a Biddie pass was intercepted and run to Carolina's 8 yard line. A fumble gave the ball to the Chicks and Brigham's punt was blocked which bounded back over the goal line, a Clemson man falling on it for safety In an attempt to score, Carolina re sorted to a passing attack during the last few minutes but was cut short by the final whistle.

Pep Meeting Held Before Citadel Game Larger Crowds Attend While Spirit of Gamecock's Show No Reverse Despite the fact that our football team received a severe jolt at the hands of the Clemson Tigers, an en thusiastic pep meeting was held at the University chapel the nIght before the Cita.del game. Regardless of the fact, too, that a an11l crowd was present the students cheered* as though no reverse had inn1 suffered and showed that they qtll nsessed the -old Gamecock spirlt.

Who said 12 points, bahl GUESS NOW we'll have wait another twelve months before we get a chance to mutilate the jungle beast. beast. COACH LAVAL gave the Tigers much credit but who would have received the praise if Zobel, Wimberly and Boineau hadn't been forced to leave the game on account of injuries. THE BULLDOGS ruined the. Orange burg fair by holding the Game cocks to a tie, after Carolina had nearly scored at least a dozen times. YOU CAN'T BEAT luck-all the Cit adel punters had .to do was to kick one for 20 yards, let it make a few nose-dives and bounce a couple o'tiines, then roll 30 yards to the 7 yard marker and stop. BOB WIMBERLY, as well as smash ing the line to pieces, got loose for several sprints that made the Bulldogs look a little puppish at times. BEALL AND ZOBEL, who entered the game late, showed that they still have the goods by advancing the ball for several big gains, the latter getting off for a 50 yard dash in the last quarter. SUPPOSE WE WILL have to shake off the jinx and take the Tarheels for a ride next Saturday-two straight over Tarheella would look mighty good. THE NORTH STATE once said that South Carolina teams were the "very thing for a practice game" -wonder how many points they want this year. THE CHARLOTTE Observer has abolished the idea of prefacing the battle of the "Carolinas" with this insinuation: "Tihe Gamecocks will be played to give the Tar heels practice for future op.. ponents."
