Mr. Crawford has been formulating , elaborate plans by which he hopes to have a very successful season of tenement football. He said that there was only one thing that was making him hesitate before launching his campaign, and that was that so many people were afraid of injuries that might result from the games. He went on' to point out, however, that there was no excuse for injuries, and to insure this he is requiring that every man who plays has to have at least ten days of actual practice before he is allowed to play in a game. "No man who has not had at least ten days' of hard practice will set foot on the playing field," Mr. Crawford said "I have the students welfare at heart, and it is my purpose to eliminate all injury and further the physical well being of the students in these contests." No man who has at any time been a member of the varsity squad will be eligible to play in these games, and neither will any man who has ever f~ JUS JONES || "Biggest Little Place in Town" Central Union Building 'Phone 7000 cuSSenkth "EXCLUE Wesijlotin'st L , , Welcome St CAROLINA Breakfast 20c "Where Every 1204 Main St. I "The House < THE R.

In three games played this year Miles hasn't run with the ball once, yet he has one touchdown to his credit. The score came when the Carolina captain pounced on the ball across the L. S. U. , soal line after Bryant Adair had blocked a punt. STATE WAR ON Carolina's schedule is so arranged this year that in one swift blow the Gamecocks may strike to the state football championship, an honor never before achieved in the history of the University. This blow takes in three state games, Clemson, Citadel, and Furman, all of whom the Birds meet within the next three weeks. CLEMSON FIRST The Gamecocks start bidding for the state gonfalon Thursday at the State Pair against Clemson and the Citadel i ray at Orangeburg will come one veek later. Carolina and Furman do jattle on November 7, and should the 3irds subdue Clemson and the Citadel, his game, which has been shifted to he wooden bowl at the fair grounds, vill probably decide the state charnjionship MAYBE WORSE An excellent example of a foot- < ball game without an attendant student body was given at Florence Friday when Citadel licked * Clemson, 8-0, and everybody 1 agreed that it was just like a hot stove league convention of deaf I and dumb souls. Citadel prevented c the game from developing into one ! of those stiff, formal affairs with a I drilling corps of about fifty cadets 1 who provided yells, while Clem- I son's Tigers had only alumni to ' cheer them on. < i CLEMSON'S IT Second-half lethargy has seemed | Carolina's chief trouble in games this | rear.

Tigers Defeat Birds - Garnering a touchdown lead in ^the first half, the Birds faltered in the last half and lost to a powerful Louisiana State squad, 19-12, in a night game last week at Baton Rouge.

Louisiana came through.in the third period for another counter and the Tigers went ahead 13-12. Another Tiger touchdown late in the last quarter completed the scoring for the light. Clary was responsible for one of the Bird markers and Captain Blount fell oh a blocked punt back of the L. S. U. goal for the other Bird tally. Carolina's regular lineup began the ?amc, altho Hajek was shifted to center in place of the injured Joe Shinn.

Golf New Fad For Students Pat Nelson, prominent University student, has a move under way to encourage and improve golfing talent at the University of South Carolina.-. Pat has negotiated with the Forest Lake and Ridgewood country clubs to allow four University students to play at each club every day up to one o'clock. Up to date twenty boys interested in the proposition have handed in their names to Mr. Crawford, who will have charge of the final arrangements. Gene McCarthy, Forest Lake professional, has offered to give occasional pointers to the b.oys, but for obvious reasons it would be impossible to undertake to instruct beginner^ in the fundamentals of the game. Mr. Crawford will post the names of the boys who will play, at what club they will play, and when they will play. v U. 8. / If you re a man and you can, grow a beard", is the battle cry of the AntiShave League at Chapel Hill, according to a feature in the Daily Tarheel. "These boys contend that if the women can bring back the long dresses and the period bonnets, why can't the men fall back on the old Van Dyke, the side-burn, and the long curly Fran* Joseph mustache?"

Jess Neely To Present Strongest Team Of Season Against Birds Carolina's Gamecocks stood ready ; tonight to break a Clemson streak of four consecutive victories in the annual State fair classic tomorrow, .and never in the past four years have the Bird s chances appeared .brighter to turn the tables. Whipped to a standstill by Tennes- *" see's Volunteers, tied by a stubborn P. C. eleven, barely ekeing out a 6-0 j victory over N. C. State for their only touchdown of the current season and beaten by a vetcrart Citadel team, the Tigers are given little chance of coming out of tomorrow's conflict unscathed. Joe Shityi, center, unable to play due to injuries received in the Tech game will be relieved by Chuck Hajek at the pivot position, with Raby and Laval holding down the end berths.
