Clemson vs Davidson, at Rock Hill, S. C., Saturday, October 14th. The first hard fought game of the season will he played on Saturday of this week (Oct. 14th.) on the Athletic grounds in Rock Hill, S. C. Roth teams have been hard at practice for about a month and are in good shape. The game is expected to be a close one and interesting from start to finish. Both Institutions expect their players to play hard but clean foot ball and it is intended that the team that wins shall do so on its morit. I^et all lovers of straight, manly sjKjrt come out! and see the game and if they wish "root" for the side of their choice. It will probably be the ! only game in the upper part of South Carolina, and is rather an experiment to seo if the people will take enough interest in the game to support it. Rock Hill is expected to give a large crowd and no doubt will uphold the reputation she has made of giving loyal j supfMirt to Athletic snorts in her i midst Now let this town send a good crowd over to see the game. ( There are many friends and Alumni of both institutions in our midst and they should see that they are all there to help on their college. The game will be called Saturday afternoon about two or three o'clock. Both teams have other first class teams to meet this season and this game will give some idea of their strength. Dividson meets the University of North Carolina in Charlotte on the following Saturday (Oct. i21st.) on the same grounds where their hard game was fought last year. Clemson is to meet South Carolina college and also Sewannee of Tenrn dur ing fair week in Columbia. Both teems then are anxious to establish a good reputation for hard clean playing by this game and you be sure that you are among the large crowds that will go from all the towns around. Remember! Rock Hill Saturday Oct. 14th. foot ball. IMPORTANT NOTICE. I WILL BE IN LANO^TER for 1 s short tune to settle up the ao counts due T. M.
