The South Carolina Freshman ,

from the Citadel Freshmen Saturday
by a lone field goal, the final margin '
of victory being chalked up when Pete 1
Evans, Dayton, Ohio Frosh, placed a
field goal between the uprights in the
second period.
The entire Riddic eleven clicked but
could not get up the punch to put
over a touchdown. Coach Norman

Gamecock
Bulldogs
~
Earl Clary Stars At Orangeburg
As Gamecocks Advance
In State Race"
Led by the elusive Earl Clary, a
fighting Gamecock team ran roughshod
over the game Citadel Bulldogs
at the Orangeburg fair Thursday to
ihe tune of 26 to 7. From start to
finish the game was all Carolina with
Lhe only Citadel score coming as a
result of penalties inflicted against 'the
second team.
The game was only a few minutes
aid when Earl Clary tossed a long
forward pass to Buddy Laval who fell
icross the goal for Carolina's first ]
score. Hajek kicked the extra point.
Mtcr the second Carolina score, which
occurred when Hambright plunged
through the line, practically the entire
second team was substituted. Several
penalties speedily took the ball toward
Lhe Carolina goal, and Mcintosh,
Citadel fullback, took the ball over.
Early in the second half, Clary
brought the stand to their feet with
a brilliant 48 yard run through the entire
Citadel team. A brilliant march
down the field resulted in Carolina's
final score, with Clary taking the ball
icross.
Clary, more than living up to prcgame
predictions, tore through the
Citadel team time and time again for
long gains. He carried the ball 33
times, gaining an average of six yards
each time.
Mcintosh and Jennings played the
best for the Cadets. While he was in
the game "Big boy" Rivers played
excellent defensive ball.

Birds Lead
State Race
Oamecocks Win Over Citadel Putting
Them In Lead;
Hurricane Is Second
Carolina took an undisputed lead in
the state grid race Thursday with its
26-7 victory over Citadel's Bulldogs.
Furman remains undefeated with two
victories, no defeats and a tie, but
Carolina has two wins, no losses and
no tics and is slated for its first state
football crown with only the Purple
Hurricane blocking the way.
In the individual scoring, South
Carolina takes an outstanding lead,
Clary ranking first with 36 points to
his credit, followed by Wells and Pittman
of Furman with 24 points each.
Clary ranks among the first eight
Southern high scorers. Brewer of
Duke is leading the scorers with 50
points, 26 garnered in the Wake
Forest tilt.
The Gaffney Ghost has scored
against every Carolina opponent to
date.

WRONG? RIGHT!
Although newspapermen err quite
often in their accounts of football
contests, usually because of their
dependence on some outsider who has
been brought to the press box for the
express purpose of identifying the
players of the two opposing teams,
mistakes like those appearing in one
widely read South Carolina daily following
the Carolina-Citadel game were
unpardonable. They were obviously
the result of carelessness and robbed
several players of the mention due1
them in connection with certain im- j
portant plays. * (
NO EXCUSE
This account stated among other 1
things that Hambright intercepted 1
a pass that Hajek intercepted; j
that Clary tossed a pass to Shinn 1
for a touchdown, and it was Clary j
to Laval; and that Hjijek blocked
a punt that Adair blocked. These
errors were plainly the result of v
carelessness as elsewhere in the
same issue of the paper there was
an authentic and correct account
of the game with which tfee staff
writer in question could easily have
made his story consistent by
merely referring to it.
TEN TO SIX j
In seventeen games played with |
outer state teams to date, Palmetto
State elevens have had rather rough ,
going. Only six have been won, ten j
resulted in defeats, and one ended in |
a tie. South Carolina teams have
scored 183 points against 233 for their
foreign foes.
DIFFERENT STORY
When Sandlapper meets Tarheel,
however, it's a different
story. In seven games played between
Palmetto teams and rivals
from the sister state of North
Carolina, the ?ount in five Victories
and two defeats in fayor of
South Carolina. Eighty-four
points have been scored by Palmetto
elevens against 26 for the
Tarheels. *
MAYBE IT'S STATIC
Two more reasons why radio announcing
day by day has fewer callings:
Harvard has a halfback, Carl A. "Pesky"
Pescosolido and Cornell has
its Joe Martincz-Zorilla.
FROSH QUINT
Although freshman basketball
practice hasn't begun as yet, a
good first-year quint seems to be
the order. Two all-American high
school guards from Athens, Texas
high school are expected to report,
lie Tompkins and John
Rowlanu, the latter being an end
on the Biddie eleven.

TIMES CHANGE
How times have changed sincc intercollegiate
boxing was first inaugurated
at the University in 1928 as a
major sport. The following is an excerpt
from an editorial printed in The
Gamecock of that year:
"Boxing involves more personal
element than most of the other
sports. What does this indicate?
It means that there is a possibility
of being created a man for
man hatred among students of the
diverse schools."
U, N. O.
"Are you Mrs. Jones?"
"Miss Jones!"
"Oh, sorry, my fault."
"Oh, no! Nobody's fault but my
own/* *
Ed?You can never tell about a girl.
Ann?And if you can, you shouldn't.

Practice
Bryant Adair
Playing His last year for tne Garnet
and Black, Bryant Adair, stellar Gamecock
tackle, flashed to his best form
af the season against the Citadel at
Omngeburg last Thursday. Adair
broke through the line consistently to
toss Bulldog backs for losses and
and made his position impregnable
to Citadel line thrusts. .Adair should
make a strong bid for all-State honors
this year.
Earl Clary
High Scorer
Earl Clary, galloping Carolina halfback,
is leading the State's individual
scorers and is ranked eighth in the
Southern Conference standings, with 1
a total of 36 points. His nearest com- '
petitors in the state are Pittman and
Wells, both of Furman, with 24 points !
sach. Kid Brewer of Duke is leading
Southern Conference scorer with 50
points. s

Earl Clary, Bird Backficld star
meets his two nearest competitors for
individual scoring honors in the flash*Y'

the same team that conquered last
year's edition of the Gamecocks, 14-0
