Why I
Blush
Personal intelligence is a thing every human is proud of
even a fellow with as little as I am professed to *have. The
SUMTER DAILY ITEM accuses me of going out of my way to
insult the officials of the Sumter county fair' football committee
and indirectly the people of Sumter-and insults me.
Granting that I am a moron, my five sentence blurb about
Sumter and the Davidson game in the column last week does
not deserve the Unfavorable attention given it in the Tuesday
edition. I think Orson Welles' affair with the men from Mars
explains why anyone would resent my rather feeble opinions.
People take things too seriously I
Let's quote and examine some of the passages from the story
*hich was displayed under a two column head. To quote
"Naturally, the people of, Sumter will resent the remarks of
Hendley although some allowance must be made for the youth
of the writer and also for his apparent level of intelligence."
Tell me, people, should my intelligence be questioned in print?
The law says, no. But, on with the fun-'"'It is difficult to be
lieve responsible authorities of the University would allow such
language to be used in the publication if they had seen it be
fore it was printed." You see, even the language has been mis
used by, to quote again, "this budding young journalist." The
phrase in question I submit to anyone interested. It will be
found on page 6, November 4 issue of The Gamecock.
I began laughing about this time. But there was still a para
graph or so to go. The writer then resents the' remark about
Sumter dust and compares their product to the Orangeburg va
riety. "The dust here," he decides, "is of a more virulent type,
in the opinion of some Columbians."
The final blast to my character is tempered with some sage
advice. But it's-not original. My mother used to-treat me that
way when I was smaller. "The best thing to do with young
Hendley," says my critic, "would be, to hqld him down, as you
would a child, and wash his niuth out with octagon soap."
And Ask
Your Attention
One thing I regret about the whole affair. Too many people
will try to use it harmfully against the University. If I could
be sure that everyone who read the story in the Sumter paper
would see this, consider the matter .open-mindedly, and realize
that personal opinions in a column are only personal, I'd laugh
like the devil about the wfiole situation I In fact, I will laugh!
And to the anonymous writer of the SUMTER DAILY ITEM
Your statements are libelous-but, in capital letters, NUTS I.!1
Then Talk
Of Furman
"Well, old man," I say tothe inevitable stooge, "What do you
think about the above bunk?"
"Let's talk about Furman," he replies with a disdainful ges
ture. And that's what we do.
It seems that Furman is the only team in the state that has a
jinx on two schools. Clemson and Carolina every year have
strong teams only -to go to defeat at the hands of Dizzy Mc
Leod's "House Of Magic". No explanation for this is avail
able except that jinx. Dizzy has the reputation of being one of
the smartest coaches in field strategy during a game. He has the
knack of building up his Purple Hurrieane for the two games
of the year. And he has done it consistently. Other famous jinx
cases in the state are Clemson over Furman, Carolina over Cita
del, and Citadel over Furman. It doesn't make sense, does it
people?
Add Shorts
Ed Clary, Gamecock back, clings to his lead in the state scor
ing race with 34 points. Clary failed to.increase his lead while
opponents failed to decrease it. . . Winner of the high school
punting contest held between the halves of the Carolina-,
Duquesne game was Arlie Scott, 15 year old eighth grader of
Williston-Elko high school. Scott booted the wet ball 59 yards
and 2 feet. .. Pepper Martin, back on the Furman team, weighs
135 pounds but does plenty of damage. Against Marshall col
lege he ran a kick-off' back 95 yards for a score. Furman scored
twice more to win, 18-13. . . Carolina's freshman squad closes
their season today against the little Purple Breeze. If they score
a win, Carolina students can greet the state champs. . . Intra
mural football at the University gets its start the first Monday
following the Thanksgiving holidays. Last year 's winner was
Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity with Sigma Nu runner-up . . . Co
lumbia high school football players are having a feud with Har
lan Edwards, sports writer of the STATE. Mysterious phone
calls, poison pen letters, etc. are all in the plot. Good melo
drama, I says. .. Ed Clary averaged 43:5 yards with a wet ball,
a good sogg ball, in the Duquesne game outpunting the triple
threat tacke, Nery, by several yards. . . Carolina was tshead in
all statistics over the Nightriders in spite of the Dukes' pre
game superiority.

Urban Snags
Winning Pass
An inspired' Carolina team battled
a favored Duquesne eleven to a stand
still for three periods and then cashed
in on the breaks to defeat the Night
riders 7 to 0 on a rainswept Univer
sitAstadium field last Saturday af
ternoon.
Pop Howell recovered d fumble on
the Duquesne 44 yard line to set
the stage for the Gamecocks scor
ing. On the first play Ed Clary
started out around right end, stopped,
wheeled suddenly, and rifled a 20 yard
pass to Frank Urban who shook off
the Duke's safety man and galloped
twenty-four yard for a touchdown.
Pinhead Hinson then kicked the ex
tra point to make the score 7 to 0 in
favor, of the Gamecocks.
The rain which fell at irregular in
tervals during the first half kept the
crowd down to an estimated 6,000
and made fumbles frequent and passes
ineffective because of the slippery
ball. After the half the sun broke
through the clouds and the ball was
easier to handle.
- During the game the Birds dis
played the stamina and determina
tion which has characterized their
play in previous encounters.
Before the game was three minutes
old the Birds were threatening the
Nightriders goal line. Big Durham
recovered a fumble by Onder on the
Duke's twenty and Henson and Clary
added fifteen yards on three plays
to place the ball on the five yard
line. On the next play, Henson
fumbled and Duquesne recovered on
the seven and nunted tn tafptv
In the second quarter. the Birds
drove to the three yard line with
Lowry, Arrowsmith, and Clary carry
ing the ball. The chance was wasted
however when Hughes fumbled a
double pass and the Nightriders re
covered and again kicked to safety.
Shortly before the end'of the sec
ond hal Duquesne launched an at
tack which carried the ball to the
birds' 17 yard line. The drive e"ded
when Nary missed an attempted field
goal only seventeen seconds befori
the end of the half.
