Then it was that Captain Beall and B Jack Moore, another linesman who B played great ball during the entire III game also, came into their own and B either knockcd down passes or stopped m the Seceder backs in their tracks B with some vicious tackling. || Erskine kicked oflf to Carolina to B open the game and after chalking up B a first down, Carolina fumbled, and B Erskine recovered. An exchange of B punts followed and shortly after the I Roosters began their touchdown B drive. H RHAME AND BOINEAU Rhame and Boineau alternated takH ing the ball down the field and with the pigskin just 38 yards from the goal line, Rhame gathered the ball up in his arms and was long gone I around right end for Carolina's first touchdown. Boineau kicked goal. The rest of the first half revealed an orgy of scoring by the Lavaliers. B Placing the ball within easy scoring B distance at the end of the first period, B Bru Boineau took the ball over for (Continued on Page 7) I University In) I Gets B The poor, decrepid students who B hobbled and limped over to the InB firmary at the beginning of the UniB versity term this year had the honor B of being among the first to sign the B new register at the Infirmary.
