Because Of Conflict With
Clemson-Furman Game
The annual Carolina-Washington and
Lee game to be played in Columbia
this year at the local stadium has been
definitely set for November 23, accord
ing to an announcement by R. K. Fos
ter, physical director of Carolina.
The intense interest being shown
over the Furman-Clemson game 'on
November 28, the original date for the
clash in Columbia, was the reason
given by officials for the change in
the date of the game. With the ap
proval of the officials of Washington
and Lee, Dr. R. K. Foster and head
coach, Don McCallister, the arrange
ments were completed because of
popular demand.
The Gamecocks will have only one
week between the Furman tilt and the
one with W. and L., two of the prin
cipal teams on its schedule. The origi
nal arrangements called for two weeks
of practice between the game with the
Purple team and the last year's con
ference champs.
Carolina will be endeavoring to win
their first and only conference victory
of this season, having been beaten by
all the conference foes played this
year.
The Generals have had a much better
season than Carolina but the Birds
have been steadily improving and will
be out to get revenge for their loss of
last year to W. and L. which was also
in Columbia.
The game, although attracting much
interest, would have been overshadow
ed by the more important state title
encounter in Greenville.
The University of South Carolina
meets the highly favored Furman team
in Columbia this week while Washing
ton and Lee will come to blows
against Maryland at College Park.
The past week. Washington and Lee
defeated the strong Virginia team 20
to 0 and will be the favorites to win
this week's tilt with Maryland.
Coach Don McCallister issued the
following statement:
"The Gamecock squad will enter the
W. and L game in a crippled condition
and short on reserve material. Our
chances have been hurt grealty by in
juries sustained by a small and light
squad that has had to face an excep
tionally hard schedule. Our opponents
have outweighed us 20 pounds to the
man. If the men on the Carolina squad
had not been in an exceptional condi
tion throughout the year, it would have
been difficult for uts to place a team on
the field. The coaches have a higher
regard for the team that loses only
after a bitter fight. The staff and team
appreciates the loyal support given us
by the Carolina students and alumni."
-U. U. c.
is being given credit for having the
most persistence and spirit on the
squad... .that "Speedy" Walton is the
Garnet and Black's crack drum major.
Watch him strut in the Furman game
.... that the all-state end selections will
be formulated at Saturday's game with
Larry Craig and Bob Johnson of Caro
lina, facing Roy Stevens and Bob
KCing of Furman... .that Stan Kostka,
Minnesota's all-American fullback, is
ace performer on the Brooklyn Dodg
ers baseball team.

Furman Admitted Free
For the first time in history, the stu
dent body of Furman will be admitted to
the game free of charge. Dr. Geer, Pres
ident of the Greenville school, expressed
his thanks to Dr. R. K. Foster, director
of athletic activities at Carolina, and said
that the Furman student body will attend
one hundred per cent. This is a com
3 mendable move on the part of the of
ficials in charge and will furnish the nec
essary spark to make the occasion a
success.
The Purple Hurricane will arrive Sat
urday for the express purpose of gain
ing their first victory in three years.
Top-heavy favorites, the heavier Fur
man team, along with Clemson, are the
potential state champions. The strength
of the purple and white squad can be
easily seen by their 29 to 0 victory over
Wofford the past week. They rolled up
the total of 270 yards compared to 50
for Wofford and the second team played
most of the game.
Boasts Strong Team
The Purple Paladians are boasting the
best team they have had in over '15
years and besides its usually strong de
fense, has been piling up an amazing
amount of yardage. This great team has
lost only one encounter this season and
all games have been won by decisive
B scores. Their great defensive strength
is shown by the sum total of points
scored on it-31 points. Only one teanr
has scored on them this season, and that
by the mighty Georgia eleven that has
been sweeping all competition aside. Their
offensive forces have made 204 yards,
eight times as many yards as have been
garnered against the purple team.
Carolina has not been so successful,
they making only 64 yards to 145 for
their opponents. They have nonly won
two state games while their games in
-foreign fields have proven fruitless. The
Birdl team has been practicing strenu
ously for two weeks in anticipation of
the game ani1 the players are expected tc
b- e in tine p)hysical condition. In scrimn
e nmages with the Bohunks and frosh teams
the Gamecocks have showvn up well an<
their usually poor tackling looks vera
deLterminedl.
Furman wvith its strongest team is
years and Carolina with a light bu
strong squad, should offer the fans:
real example of how this old game o.
football should be played.
sFurman Seeks Victory
rNot since 1927 has the Furman tean
emerged victory on Carolina's field, the:
wisnning that year 34 to 0. Coach Mc
Lt Leod has one victory and two losse,
e against the Carolina teams since he
'e started his brilliant career at Furmas
and he wvill be endeavoring to improve hi
status by a smashing victory this year.
Furman and Carolina have the fou
leading contenders for the end position
on the mythical all-state eleven and thi
game will probably decide who th
all-state ends wvill be.
The battle between Rohr, Furman bacl<
who is leading the state scoring, and Wil
burn Clary, who is running close behin<
him, will be watched with interest. Fur
nman also has "Daddy" Dorn and Trasi
McCarson, former all-state tackles, bacd
