>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.
