Biddies B& Play Mia By BOB WALLACE The rampaging Biddies of Couch Frankie Johnson will go up against Miami's Baby Wind tonight in the Orange Bowl at Miami. About 17,000 cheering fans watched the Biddies defeat the Clemson "Cubs" last Wednesday night in Carolina stadium. This was the second game for the Bid dies and they lived up to pre-game expectations by winning 40 to 20. The Cubs were stopped on their own 43 after making one first down following the kickoff and were forced to kick to Wilson on the Biddie 15. Gene returned to the Clemson 43. The Biddie offen sive bogged down when Wilson and Korn were dropped for heavy losses on successive running plays. Bob Paredes of the Cubs took Wilson's punt and returned for 43 yards before being stonned by Wilson At. the last moment. The Carolina for ward wall held and the Cubs kicked out of bounds on the Biddie 30. Wilson then picked up 26 yards and a Gramling to Wilson pass for 20 yards, offsetting a 15-yard penalty against Carolina, kept the Biddie offense rolling. Wilson threwv a p)erfe'ct pass to Bennett from the' Clemson 31 for a touchdown. The PAT by Cox was wvide and the Biddies led 6-0. Carolina kicked off and stopped the Clemson attack cold. Then the lIidd(ies started a scoring drive. Jleffeoat p)icked up 30 yards on his fir1st run of the game and was stop)ped at the last moment by the safety man. Cox picked up 5 and Gramling tossed a 38-yard pass to Cox for the second touchdown. Cox's PAT was good and Carolina led 13 to 0. Th( Cub attack began to work with McCann returning the kickoff for 13 yards. Paredes passed to McCann for 37 yards; then Paredes and Brigman picked up a great. Hre reminds me of Steve Van IBuren." FURMAN IHISHJER, Sports Editor, Atlanta Constitution: "The hurricane moved out, and Wadiak moved( in. We found out over in Atlanta a few weeks ago the treachery of Wadiak.

Cox made the point good. The Biddies stopped a Clemson drive on the Carolina 40 late in the second quarter. The Biddies struck through the air as the half ended. In the third period, Bobby Drawdy returned the kickoff for 82 yards to score for the Biddies and start a scoring spree for both teams. After a series of heavy penalties, Drawdy intercepted a Cub pass to set up touchdown No. 5 with Korn doing the scoring. Gene Wilson scored No. F after a 49-yard drive from the one-yard line. The Biddies appeared to let up in the fourth period and.the Cubs took advantage of this by sending Jimmy Wells and Gene Moxley over for tallies. The pitying of the Biddie for ward wall left little to worry about this year or next and the backfield of Korn, Gramling, Cox, Wilson, Drawdy, and Jeffcoat promised to give added wealth to the already growing varsity. 10// RIDING El oathly I operates more eadilyr, safely You'll enjoy extra evrolet-only and save money, tot the Unitized the only low-priced airplane-type in-Head engine-trei industry. asiy It lasts Ion /t driving at Chevrolet is built to let's famous That's one reason w ransmlission* a mni/lion more Chevt ing at lowest than any other mak< ~nt Synchro- rolet is America's n year after year.

Birds Slight After Big Tli By MORDECAI PERSKY I Two Southern Conference dark horses, each on the rebound from impressive performances in last i week's games, clash head-on when the George Washington Colonials 1 take on a squad of fightin' Birds i from Columbia tonight. Fresh from a 14-14 would-be win over Clemson's previously un beaten, untied, and unscored-upon Jungle-eats, the Gamecocks go into the game as odds-on favorites, but Coach Rex Enright believes he has good reason to fear this team that 1 last week held mighty Wake For est, conqueror of North Carolina, to a two-touchdown last-quarter victory after fighting on even terms for three periods of score less deadlock. Prior to that con test the Colonials were undefeated in conference play. According to 1 reports from the Nation's capital, whose Griffith Stadium will be the scene of battle, George Washing ton is knee-deep in fine ends and also owns an ace passer in the perI son of tailback Andy Davis. In fact, the entire GW backfield has been highly touted and the Game cock line has careful instructions not to take the touting lightly. A hard-fought Big Thursday has knocked one of the mainstays out of the Bird line, but all others who looked as though they might be a little the worse for wear on Thurs day night are expected to be in playing shape. Big Don E'nrley, husky tackle from Vandergrift, Pennsylvania, has been playing a great deal of football for the uni versity, and his services will be sorely missed. A stumbling, confused Carolina .1 pass defense that seemed to take 1 no little pride in an onlooker's role l when Billy Cox made the air dense with tan ovals in the opener l with Duke, turned in a sure-footed t performance against the feethallers j from cow country. As a result of u these efforts, Clemson back Jackie t Calvert, who virtually couldn't be ' stopped in three previous cavort- s ings, failed to complete a single one 1 of his "unstoppable" heaves, and v letted nine yards through the S.
