WiIdca * * Carolina Third Game Of Season Porter Replaces Biggs Kirt Norton And James Reynolds Are Shifted From Backfield To Guard Positions With several changes in the start ing lineup, the Carolina freshman foot hall team will meet Davidson frosh in their third game of the year tonight at 8 p. m. on Melton Field. Most notable among the changes is the shifting of two backfield men, Kirt Norton, from Easley, and James Reynolds, from Bishopvile, to the guard positions where their speed is expected to strengthen the team by opening up holes for the "pony ex press" backfield. Irvin Granoff, from Brooklyn, New York, has been shifted from guard to right tackle. Webb, the understudy of Harold Hartell at center, is play ing his first year of football and is showing promise of developing into a good player according to Coach Petoskey. Frank Sossaman, an end from Gaff ney, has not played any football for two years, but he is contending with John Crews for the end position. Starting the game off in the backfield will be Gene Robinson, Heber Stroud, Dick Little, and Red Snider. All four of these men are triple threat players who can punt, pass, or run equally well. Robinson, who plays quarterback and safety man, is a smooth, shifty runner, with a decep tive change of pace. Stroud was considerably off form in the Clemson game, but in practice this week he has shown a desire to live up to the reputation which he established as a runner at Oak Ridge last year. Snider has distinguished himself as a defensive back. His enthusiasm and desire to be in on every play has helped to build up the morale of the whole team. He is expected to be in at fullback most of the game, and his ability as a ball carrier has stampied him as one of the best line plungers in the state. Little is another player who has been effective on both offense and de fense. In the Clemson game he was the most consistent ground gainer on the team, and he stopped plays time after time at the scrimmage line.

State Mississippi Loyola Tennessee Maryville Vanderbilt Sewanee Carolina Beats Citadel Team Scoring on a forward-lateral pass in the first period and a blocked punt in the third, the Carolina Gamecocks defeated Citadel 9-0 in their annual Orangeburg Fair grid battle las. week. Towards the close of the first quar ter Carolina took the ball on their own 42 yard line. Two line plays gained five yards, and on the next play, Art Urbanyi faded back and passed to Bob Johnson about 20 yards over center. Johnson leaped in to tie air ann mane a spectacular catch of the ball, and when he was tackled on the spot, lateralled to Frank Urban on his right. Urban took the pass and ran the remaining distance for a touchdown. Dearth kicked the goal to make the score 7-0. Unleasing their formidable aerial at tack, the Citadel Bulldogs carried the ball to the Carolina 14 yard stripe in the second quarter. Here the Caro lina forward wall braced, and two line plays gaining nothing, the Cadets passed on the fourth down, and the toss fell incomplete over the goal line. Coming back after the half, the Carolina eleven drove down to Cita del's 19 yard line where they lost the ball on downs. With the ball in their possession, the Bulldogs kicked on second down, but Paul Gaffney rushed in and blocked the punt which was recovered by the Citadel over the goal line for a safety. Another Gamecock march in the last quarter was halted on the 3 yard line of Citadel, inches short of a first dowvn. The game ended with the ball in possession of the Cadets on theii 26. - Jack Lyon ran with the ball 11 times for an average gain of 7.8 yards. He1 gained more yardage than all the Cit adel backfield combined. Porcher Hopkins carried the ball three times for an average of 6 yards per run. Ed Clary's kicking wvas somewhat off-form in this game, his average be ing only 24 yards. CAROLINA ENGRAVING CO e7riss&ofo4irers' COLUABIA.S. C. Central Drug Co.
