Duke Devils Carolina Is Underdog The University of South Carolina's Gamecocks will meet the Blue Devils from Duke at Durham, N. C., Saturday afternoon in a game that is expected to have a great bearing on the South ern Conference title race. Both teams, fresh from a smashing victory the past week over weaker foes, will have their first real test of the season. Duke is the .top-heavy favorite but the magnificent showing of the Carolina warriors against Ers kine Saturday when they piled up 33 points to none for their opponents, tends to make the game much closer than originally expected. Duke has a much larger squad than Carolina although the Birds will not be outweighed very much. The 26 to 7 defeat of Wake Forest Saturday marks Duke as a powerful eleven es pecially as the second team of the g victors played one-half of the game. Ace Parker, dynamite quarter-back, who made three touchdowns in the Wake Forest game, and who is al - ready being talked as all-Southern con ference material, will lead the Devils a on the expected path of victory. In V h Harwood Smith, a smashing full back, f Duke also has another good back as shown by his return of Wake Forest's ra s kickoff for a touchdown. The run was for 95 yards, the longest run of the present season in the nation. Wal- th " lace Wade, Duke's mentor, is out for fri r revenge for the defeat handed him 0. r by Carolina when he was making his lit debu. at Duke, and his plans are to pr make the victory, if one, as decisive as possible. On the other hand, Carolina, the u mystery team, threw off its cloak of th tystery Saturday when they sub- W merged Erskine and instantly sent lin their stock soaring. Under the direc- in tion of the new coaching staff from ki4 Ohio composed of head coach, Mc Callister, with Stamman, Pauly and sc Petosky, the roosters have shown un- co t expected strength and quite a few baf- ha . fling tricks are expected to spring from in1 the coaches repertoire. Knowing them- st< selves to be the underdogs and with nothing to lose, the players are ex pected to throw discretion to the winds te. and offer such an attack that Duke an will be entirely baffled. With Paul Ye Gaffney, already being mentioned on so the all-Southern conference team, and Pu Wilburn Clary, star back who scored stI three touchdowns against Erskine, the ki Gamecock team should be one of the in most formidable foes of Duke's pres- sti ent schedlule, th WVith Wallace Wade bubbling withI confidence, the Carolina coaches seem b to be a bit pessimistic but one must o remember that this was the same at- d titude that was put forwvard the past week. Assistant Coach Carl Stanmman, wvho scouted the Duke eleven last Saturday saidl the Blue Devils were a powverful - aggregation but were somewhat stale at times. Voicing the same attitude as that of the other coaches, he said the Birds would prob)ably get out with a 12 point dlefeat if they played top foot ball. It is fearedl that Carolina team wvill be without the services of Ernest Stokes, center, and Fred Craft, end, wh'lo have been on the sidelines the entire wveek (luring practice sessions.

For the first time in "a coon's age," the University of South Carolina is showing a characteristic heretofore practically unknown even in the best of circles. This mysterious something is nothing other than the true Carolina spirit that has been shown by the stu dents this year. This new feeling is due largely to the new coaching staff that have instilled a fighting spirit on the campus as well as among the players. The new freshman class must also be given credit for this turn to the better. They have attended the pep meetings in a body and have cheered loud and lustily. The cheer leaders are overjoyed at the way the Carolina cheering section responded Saturday and plans are going forward for new cheers and a greater Carolina spirit. The one gloomy note to the pep meetings, is the obvious lack of upperclassmen. Are you upperclass men going to let the "rats" show you what a true spirit is? Attend the pep meetings and sit in the cheering sec tion and show our athletic teams that we are behind them. Do you appre ciate your Alma Mater enough to do this? 5 Erskine punts for a total of 153 yards. Whitey Whitesides was the star runner for the losers, gaining 27 WELCOME STUI We Set QUAL.
