BIDD1E ELEVEN
IN SCORELESS
TIE WITH P. C.
FLASH STRONG DEFENSE
Yearlings Threaten Several Times
But Unable To Push
Ball Over.
The South Carolina Biddies, opening
the season in their own coop last
Saturday afternoon, played host to a
band of freshmen from Presbyterian
College in rather listless fashion and
were unable to convert their twelve
first downs into anything more than
a big goose egg as their share of a
disheartening scoreless tie.
The two teams lunged at each other
for four fruitless quarters in a futile
attempt to break the deadlock, but
their drives, however successful they
were in midfield, met virtual brick
walls every time they penetrated into
easy shot of the zero lines. Carolina
led in the aggressiveness and time after
time her backs, led by the plunging
of Freeman and the offtackling of
Carnes, dented the rugged P. C. defense
and advanced to beautiful scoring
positions only to be checked by
a line that just refused to give any
territory beyond the ten yard mark.
The game started off resembling a
punting contest between the boots of
Parrott and Fleming of the Biddies
and the toe of Adams, the plucky little
quarterback who replaced Stamps
in the early stages of the game for
P. C. Neither team could go further
than midfield and both of them resorted
to punting tactics in the hope
of stalking around for a break. But
the break failed to come.
FRESH MEAT
To start the second canto Coach
Norman sent in an entire team of reserves,
and then the Biddies began their
drives that went far into the Presby- |
terian territory but always lacked the
punch to break through for the six
points.
It was Games' running and DeVaga's
plunging that did most of the
ground gaining in this quarter, but
the steady defense of the Clinton lads
magnified at right end by Copeland
and in the backfield by Barrett, staved
off every threatening score and managed
to hold the South Carolina yearlings
to their original score. The half
ended with Carolina still plugging
away and gaining slowly and surely
on the P. C. sixteen yard line.
The second half saw a team of rejuvenated
regulars back into the game
for the Biddies and everything went
their way except the coveted touchdowns.
Their passing, their running
attack, and their defense were all
working nicely but it was an ill wind
that blew them no good around the
goalposts. They knocked at the thin
and beckoning cross bars time after
time in that second half but never
could they summon sufficient punch
to break through a stubborn Blue Sox
defense, try as they might.
BRIGHT LIGHTS
The work of Musselwhite and Bill
Gilmore at the pivot position and
Jones, Drafts and Atwell on the ends
was particularly outstanding in the
defense of the home boys, while Benton,
Arenson, Correll and Sligh all
made nice work of their Saturday
afternoon jobs.
The visiting Blue Sox such an evenly
knit team that few men were outstanding,
but the work of Copeland,
Adams, Barret, and Pinson shone
slightly above the rest.
South Carolina's side of the count
cannot at all be reckoned as the caliber
of the team because they demonstrated
flashes of brilliancy while they
were plugging away for twelve first
downs Saturday that will be hard to
be denied in their remaining games
with Georgia Tech, Furman, The Citadel,
and Clemson.

CAROLINA'S BLASTING victory
over Maryland at College Park Saturday
came as a pleasant surprise to <
those Gamecock supporters who had ;
waited more or less patiently for ,
several weeks to see just what Billy
Laval's gridders could really do when
they wanted to win a football game
bad enough to open up a trifle and
show gridiron enthusiasts a thing or
so to talk about.
WHILE MARYLAND isn't
setting the world on fire this season
with her football team, she
has the weight and material to
give almost any team a great
amount of opposition. That the
Roosters could hand them such
a decisive drubbing in their own
back yard certainly bears no great
amount of good for future opponents
_ of the Birds who may
be anticipating easy pickings.
NORTH CAROLINA'S victory
over Georgia Tech, astounding as it
might have been to the general public,
did not come as a surprise to the
guys who knew what it was all about.
The name of Georgia Tech, given a
sort of magical twist by an astounding
number of great gridiron machines
in the past, can't forever be imbueing
opponents with the fatal inferiority
omplex.
SHOULD THE LOUD
MOUTHED Tarheels get to feeling
a bit too cocky over their
questionable achievement and begin
to sprain their arms patting
themselves on the back, they're
due to get knocked off their high
horse sooner or later. And if
they start their publicity bureaus
to telling the sports world what
they are going to do to a certain
South Carolina team one bright
day in November, they may find
that their ballyhoo was a fraction
too premature.
IT WAS A PITY that the Biddies
couldn't open their season with a
victory over P. C. Saturday, especially
since their bigger brothers were making
such whoopee at the expense of
Maryland. However, the yearlings
flashed one of the best defensive teams
ever seen on Melton Field and if an
offensive can be developed to correspond,
the baby Gamecocks will win
the remainder of their games with
little trouble.
JUST A BIT over a week now
before the Gamecocks are due to
take the field against Clemson's
vaunted Jungaleers in their annual
football classic at the state fair
grounds. Clemson may be doped
to win this year, but the supporters
of the Bengals won't have to
spot very many touchdowns in
order to get all the money they
can produce/s covered dollar for
dollar. We're open for a greenback
or so ourselves.

The berserk rage of a downtrodden
Gamecock burst forth in all of its
pent up fury on the heads of a luckless
Terrapin eleven Saturday as the
husky pigskin warriors of Billy Laval
ran wild on a Maryland gridiron to
pile up a decisive 26 to 6 victory.
Bru Boineau and Eddie Zobel,
flashy Rooster halfbacks, formed the
two main cogs in a Carolina offensive ,
which featured long runs and more
Jong runs and played the major part
in shoving over four touchdowns over
the last Maryland barrier.
Boineau, as his share toward winning
the clash, came through with a
couple of touchdowns, including a
dash for 85 yards, and two extra
points after touchdowns. Zobel intercepted
a Maryland pass to dash 60
yards for another Carolina tally and
made numerous other runs that kept
the Terrapin eleven in a highly nervous
state of mind throughout the game.
RETURNS PUNT
Maryland earned nine first downs to
Carolina's eight, but the Roosters converted
Maryland plays into their largest
gains by returning punts, kick-offs
and intercepting passes. Once Rhame
