Leardo got on it and rode his way to victory with little ag gressiveness on his part, in the. Citadel-Carolina fracas. Q POKE SKELTON, Citadel's would-be heavyweight will have to take a walk on the battery, where the cool sea breezes blow, to revive from the bruises administered by Harry Wolfe. IN HIIS first varsity bout, Wilson made a brilliant comeback to score a technical knock-out over Howie of Citadel.

HARRY VOLFE seems to succeed 1n any branch of sport he enters. For four years Harry has played a whale of a game at tackle, being placed on the all-state football team this past season. When Coach Norman sent out the cry for more basketball material, Harry respond ed and was rewarded with a guard position. In the heavyweight bo. ing class none have ever beaten him. More power to Harry. INDIFS DEFEAT OLYMP~IA HIGH Poweli Piles up Score of 10 Jennings Rings Nine Points Carolina's Biddies took Olympia liigh into canap Wednesday night to the tune of 24 to 19. :The victory was not without a fight, however, Coach Porter's p)roteges fought hard from start to finish and the Chicks had to 'xert themselves to win. Both teams played on even terms for several minutes without scoring. Then Jennings dropped in a foul to score first for Olympia. A minute later Powell shot a field goal to put the Riddlies in the lead and they were never headled after that, although the score was close at times. At the half the score was 10-4. Pursley, half pint forward for Olym pia was put in the game at this stage and rang two baskets in rapid succes sion. This little fellow had a sharp eye for the basket.

BLACK BIDDIES CRUSH BULL PUPPIES Military Frosh Succumb To Fusilage of Spurs What promised to be a good, close game ended in a complete rout for the Biddies when they ran roughshod over the Bulldog Rats to win by the top heavy score of 54 to 28. -oach Simmons started the second Citadel team and saved his first string for a hard game, or those were his intentions. With the score 20 to 2 he dragged them out and rushed the first team in to check the Biddies. If any thing this team was worse than the previous five . The Biddies continued their slaughtering methods and amass ed a total of 36 points to Citadel's 6, at the half. The second half was a repetition of the first. Coach Norman injected his second team at this point and they too carried the good work on. When they got tired playing with the Puppies the third team was sent in. They now fought on practically even terms, until the end o'" the game. No individual star can be named for honors, for all of them did well. Floyd, forward for the Biddies showed the way with 18 points. Powell, center got 12 points. Willard. Weeks and Barbot were best for Citadel. The Chicks showed a complete rever sal of form from that shown in the two high school games and once more got into old time form. cPress in taking notes This is the student's pc par excellence.
