' ' 7eature >ws Attractions All roads lead to Columbia and the State I^air Grounds this week as the annual fall festival attracts people from every nook and corner of South Carolina. Many visitors and out-of-town folk have already arrived for the "big week." Football, in the form of three contests, will be the center of attraction for most of the visitors, while dances, parties, and varied attractions will interest others. The Carolina-Clemson Ball at lyakeview on Wednesday night will attract many of the college set who will be present from colleges all . over the state. The football program will be ushered in on Wednesday afternoon when the Cubs of Clemson and the Carolina "Biddies" mix in their annual tussle on Melton .Field. The game will be called at 3:00 o'clock. The big classic, the "game of games" will take-place at high noon in the Fair Grounds stadium, when t^e Gamecocks will swarm on the field to mix with the Clemson Tigers. The GameI / V cocks will be out for revenge in this their twenty-eighth combat with the Tigers, for not since 1926 have the Gamecocks finished with the long end of the score. Both teams are in prime condition, and are all set for the big tilt. Carolina has defeated Duke, Erskine, and Louisiana State, and has lost to Georgia Tech. Clemson has won its five encounters, defeating P. C., Wofford, Citadel, Newberry, and N. C. State. These, on a whole, have had weaker teams than those whom Carolina has met. The football program will be tapered off on Friday when Camden and Batesburg High Schools meet on the Fair Grounds. Both of .these have good teams, and the result will play a big part in the state race. Fair .Week is here?football, and everything that goes with it. The big week?the week of fun. ? | ALMA MATER .
