),Happy Enris Vq6tory Over Rugged Line And f Experts With Stunnii A gent named Rex Enright was perhaps the happiest man in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 1st Saturday afternoon. The reason-his Uni versity of South Carolina Game cocks had just drubbed the Univer sity of. North Carolina Tarheels to the tune of 13-7., ' The Gamecoclks probably made some of the experts wish that they had enlisted in the Foreign Legion. With. very few exceptions, the sports-writing experts had predicted the vaunted Tar Heels would run roughshod over the lads from the University of South Carolina. The Gamecocks scored first in the second period when rugged Bu ford Clary, behind the day's best blocking, swung arpund his own left end'for 13 yards and the- score. Elston's attempted conversion was low. Late in the third quarter the Tar Heels showed their passing power and scored wheni Connor passed 25 yards to Frank Pecore for a touch down. Harry Dunkle's place kick split the uprights, and North Caro lina led 7-6. Fighting to the end, the Game cocks would not take defeat. Stan Stasica, rookie halfback, raced off his. own right tackle, cut back to his left, and spd 66 yards for the game-winning touchdown. Elston's placement kick was good, and the Gamecocks led 13-7. During the last ten minutes of the game, the Tar Heels tried their vaunted passing attack, only to have it smothered by alert South Caro lina linesmen. In every phase of the game, blocking, tackling, running, and field generalship, the boys from the University of South Carolina were first rate. The Georgi Players Wt. Ht.

Several great stars have come out of Gaffney in the past. Many of Carolina's alumni re member the days of Earl Clary, Ed Clary, and Paul Gaffney. Earl Clary was known as the boy who could punt a ball from goal to goal. He was an All Southern his senior year. Ed Clary, of the ole Clary clan of Gaffney, could pass, punt and carry the leather against the best of teams with great suc cess. Paul Gaffney is one of the best flankmen ever to don a Carolina uniform. But of the present quartet at Carolina, the Gamecocks have four stellar ball players. When one or two are in the game it means trouble for the oppo sition. When all four are in there, the, somebody better duck. ree Substitution tules Help Enright 27 Gamecocks Play In Tarheel Encounter Twenty-seven Gamecocks saw ac on against the North Carolina Tar [eels last Saturday. .

Birds Open Against Demon Deacons In First Home Game Deacs Boast Much Power And Reserve Strength In The Backfield And Line After facing two of the strongest teams in the south, Georgia and North Carolina, the Gamecocks will open their home schedtle by play ing the highly rated Wake Forest Deacons. The tilt will be played in the stadium on Saturday afternoon, October the 11th. Each year, the Deacons have a team that they not only can boast of strength but also much reserve. This year is no exception to that rule. The Deacons backfield hopes are placed on John Polanski, one of the nation's leading yard gainers. Only Polanski can boast of previous var sity starring but it is believed that a well balanced backfield will be de veloped by the time of the tilt. Most of the line is likewise inex perienced, but in previous tests it has held with surprising firmness. The Deacons have played two games to date. They defeated Camp Davis 65-0, in an unscheduled game. Last week they were defeated by the strong Duke team to the tune of 43-14. A large crowd is anticipated, due to the fact that this will be the first home game for the Gamecocks. Marion Miley, Golfer, Slain Last Week Marion Miley, nationally famous woman golfer who was slain last week in Lexington, Kentucky, has on several occasions roomed with Jane Crum, star golfer of the Uni versity of South Carolina. Miss Miley and Jane roomed to gether at the National Women's Finals in Boston, Mass.; and again at a tournament in New York. Says Miss Crum, "Marion was very friendly and was well liked by the golfers on the tournament circuit."

The freshmen ,ia where they will watch the A 145 pound Charlestonian, ten other strong, muscled freshmen, and a lucky fumble recovery sent the Georgia Bulipups back to their cam pus with a record of no wins atid one defeat at the hands of Carolina's Biddies last Friday night. The final scdivt stood: the Biddies-12; the Bullpups-6. "Mouse" Halsall, the Charleston "streak of lightning", made his debut at the University of South Carolina on Melton Field last Friday evening. Halsall was on the firing end of many a successful pass; he drove through the line time after time to gain many yards by scrimmage; he kicked to such an advantage that he kept his opponents deep in their own territory during the most of the game. Not only did this mighty streak shine so brightly, but so did the en tire team. In the back field, O'Harra lived up to all expectations and turned in a remarkable piece of play ing. O'Harra acted as captain and showed an excellent hand in the de fensive work. His excellent block ing was noticed when time after time he took out several men who stood in the way of the ball carrier. In the line, such names as "Red" Atkins, Kelly Mote, and Fred Snod dy stood out as men who made it possible for the backfield to show up so well. Snoddy broke through the Georgia defenses to spill many a play which would have gained quite a few yards for the visitors. The Biddies opened the scoring in the second quarter, when Al Bucci received a pass from Halsall. In the third quarter, Trippi, of the Bullpups, dodged many a Carolina man to score the opponents' only score. Then came a lucky fumble which one seldom sees in football. In the last quarter, with the score tied 6 all, the Biddies were again threaten ing the Bullpups by having the ball deep in enemy territory. Snoddy, carrying the ball on an end round play, was nailed hard, so hard that he fumbled across the Georgia goal. Cantore streaked over ahead of two Georgia men and recovered the ball for the six points which put the game on ice. Tonight the Biddies will tackle the cadets from Gordon Military College at Barnsville, Georgia. They left early this morning and will return Sunday after seeing the varsity play in Athens tomorrow night.
