Abbeville, showing its fine traditi
onal fighting spirit, triumphed ovei
>its rival, Johnston, Friday aftemoor
!Jin a furious struggle, by a score ol
; 16 to 7. The breaks were about ever
' but Abbeville's hard tackling helpec
" make them so. Both teams presentee
remarkable defense, but Abbevillt
:'had it all over Johnston when it cam<
to breaking up and completing passes,
in spite of the fact that the advance
dope received in town was
that Johnston was superior to mos1
high school teams in aerial attacks
Had the visitors brought some bombing
planes with them they may have
broken up some of Abbeville's pass
. ?es, but no trench mortars, tanks, oi
similar ground implements woulc
have helped them any.
As the direct result of the to<
! work of Swetenburg, the head wort
of Gambrell, and the stomach worl
of Crawford when he fell on hii
back in completing a long pass ovei
goal line, the Garnet and Gold helc
the field while melancholy Johnstor
was slowly but surely submerged ir
the cold shadows of an autpmn eve
ning and the deep gloom of defeat
lo tne satisfaction of the visiting
delegation from Johnston, the aris
tocratic town of Edgefield district
it was decisively proven that the fa
mous Swetenburg-Hafner system i:
poison to any team from that county
(See account Abbeville-Edgefielt
game November 10.)
As the whistle sounded that endec
the contest in a victory for th<
home boys, the Johnsonians h'ed foi
their Fords, put up the curtains, anc
stepped on the gas, crying, "Th<
Philistines are upon us!" and mad<
the swamps about Long Cane direfu
by their lamentations that woulc
make Jeremiah appear as a humorou;
rival of Charlie Chaplin. The visit
ors didn't even stop long enough foi
a hot weiner at the King's palace or
tne Square.
j Johnston won the toss and electer
to kick. Abbeville came back, for It
yards on the kick-off, and made three
first downs before losing the ball
Johnston, after three downs withoui
i yard's gain, punted. It was ther
nip and tuck for half the first period
Abbeville got the ball on Johnston':
fifteen yard line by straight foot
ball, and then the visitors t'ghtenec
up, holding the home boys for tw<
| downs. Joe then called for a droi
| kick. Swetenburg responded with i
perfect drop squarely between th<
bars for the first blood of the game
No more scoring was done in th<
I first quarter. The second period wa:
I one of those uncanny quarters, wher
you feel that anything may happen
and about everything out of the or
dinar}- did happen that has ever hap
pened in a football game except i
broken neck. Johnston somehow man
aged to get the pigskin on Abbeville'!
20 yard line, and attempted to du
plicate Swentenburg's drop kick. Ab
beville blocked the kick, the ball roll
ing towards Johnston's goal. Botl
teams stood motionless, watch'ng th(
ball roll on its w?v Tn o
however, Brother Gambrell saw hi:
opportunity, and made a dash for thi
ball, which was wiggling along, wait
ing for one of the two teams t<
realize that it was not a dead ball b:
any means. Brother tucked th<
spheriod neatly under h;g left wing
and galloped 85 yards for the firs
! touchdown of the game.
Johnston seemed to realize tha
only by a freak or at least by somi
unusual play could they score on Ab
bev'lle. So on the following k:ck-of
Havh for Johnston received it. tuck
??d the ball under his left w'ng, an<
fl^w aronnd left end bv all the Ab
heville team for a touchdown. I
was the fastpst mn ever seen on th<
New Field. Davis must be equipnec

supplemented by Rolls-Royee legs. ^
f He left, what should have been his,
interference, by 20 yards or more, i
t The nearest Abbeville would-be-tack-1
ler had to use a radio to get in com
!mnn:rfttinn with him I
{ But this brilliant run wound up ji
j Johnston's little ball of yarn, and [
jthey were held scoreless after that. 0
j Neither did Abbeville do any more [
I counting until the last five minutes j [
! of the fourth period. Fumbling a'[j
jlong forward pass from Swetenburg, '[j
Joe Crawford, tipped the ball high j C
above his head, losing his balence, P
and falling on his back in the effort 0
' to clinch the ball. The ball was kind o
j to Joe, however, and neatly glided o
j to his bosom, where it nestled for six [j
points, with dainty Bill Bowie, zeph-|[j
jer-like, lying on the ball and on Joe's |[j
:abdomen. Johnston howled like aiG
pack of wolves, when Umpire Poole Jo
declared the pass complete and good j e
for six points. Their coach vocifer-lc
ously disclaimed such a decision, [j
| but Poole was still and calm, not a [!
ripple playing over his placid sur- [j
| face, and the side lines were with *
j him in his decision. Both men were jj
probably conscientious in their at- [
titudes and beliefs. It looked to'[
Coach Alexander like the point of the '
ball touched the ground; it looked to |
Umpire Poole like the point of the \
j L
ball did not touch the ground?and \
Preacher McMurray, who was within t
ten yards of the play, says that the [
Umpire was right. So does Dendy [
Miller, .Headlinesman Hafner, and ?
"Mary" Neuffer. Either of these wit- [
j ncsses' word is sufficient corrobora- [
,t:on to justify Abbeville's conscien- [
fious claim to the touchdown. But, I
i f I
' after all, it was not a deciding point, I
L as the Garnet and Old Gold had gar- [
1 nered in sufficient points, besides, to [
s '.win the game. if
r It was a real game of football. [
