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.

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.
