Flying hooves and bits of hair mingled with snorts and brays typify Carolina's Herdcgen, Madigan, Eiscle, and Woodhurst in action on the gridiroti. Teetering, totering, fuddle back Eisele gained pre-grid fame as the face on the bar room floor. Some years ago, Handy Ilerdegen came to light as a sport king when he was awarded the honorary title, "Grand Old Man of Hack it, Smack it" of the wooden paddles and rubber balls, when the fad was sweeping the country like fire. Merciless Madigan of the Murphy Street Madigana, gained nation wide fame and glory when as a mere child, he learned to walk on only two legs and cat cookc l meat. The last of this fast moving, hard charging backfield, was Wandering Woodhurst, the Abbeville Traveler, who, it has been rumored, has seen the world, often journeying to the far corners of Richland county. These men working as a unit in the Carolina backfield this year, put football back into the high position that it rightly deserves thrtt? fine play and bold passes. They would have made Stuldreher, Miller et all blush with shame with their prow ers in taking the pigskin to market. One of the finer plays these gentle folk claim is the "right for mation, 86, wherein the home team guard pulls out of the line, tramp ling his own ball carrier, to further befuddle the opposition. It was de ception such as this that won the Clemson game for Carolina this year. "lerdie the Ilun "claims" right on another famous play, which stars putter back \Woodhurst in a series of flips and spins ex ecuted on hands and knees in mid field. As a final "limrst" jumps to his feet displaying his thirteen toes and 11 fingers. Invariably the op ponents run, shrieking, from the fiel. 'These boys, first to complain of the "No bite, no bash," clause in the 1943 book of national football rules, w%ere recently banned from the grid irons of the nation, since their superiority, based on long claws and filed teeth could not be over come by any present day groupI, college or professional squadl. The only injury of the year was sustainedl by Pussyfoot Eisele in the fateful game on September :25, when in a wild end run, lhe acci (lent ly stepped on hiis head, causing himt to severely crumple his left ear.
