CLINTON, S. C., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30,1924
NUMBER 4S
INDUNS SCALP.
PRESBYTERIANS
Specialize In Air Route. Win Final
Count Ten To
Nothing. /
Through the air and through the
line the Newberry Indiana matched
a pretty game from the Blue Stock
ings on their home field last Friday
afternoon, 10 to 0. P. C. began the
fray with three men out of her regu
lar line-up. Wilson, Warner and
Berry were confined to the bench on
account of injuries sustained in the
Carolina game.
P. C. kicked off to Newberry and
Butler was downed on*his 10-yard
line. Newberry failed to gain on sev
eral line bucks and was forced to
punt. From here a punters’ battle en-
sued with-hasdly either aide gaining
on them. Griffith punted for the Blue
Stockings his first time and got off
some good boots during the course,
while Rhiel for the Indians, exchang-
. ed tooth for tooth with him. Early in
the second quarter the Presbyterians
began a drive which soon placed them
on Newberry’s 25 yard line. Here
they were forced t ohalt and Cope
land called on Griffith for a place
kick which went wild by a few feet.
With the end of the first half in
sight, Copeland called for passes, and
ehe to Robinson netted ten yards,
another was intercepted by an In
dian who ran forty yards before he
was checked. Newberry failed to gain
• and on fourth down Rhiel dropped
back to the thirty yard chalk and
booted a pretty straight between the
uprights.
Thus elded the first half with the
Newberrians taking a three point
margin.
Soon after Rhiel’s kick off in the
second half the Presbyterians-fum
bled on their. 15 yard line. Newberry
rolled up a first down and placed the
■' ball on P. C. five yard line. Three
line plays put the oval one inch from
the chalk. Butler called another line
buck of left guard but it failed and
the ball went over and Griffith punt
ed out to safety. Early ip the fourth
quarter Newberry received a punt in
midfield, several passes were com
pleted for nice gains, and a penalty
on- P. C. put the ball on the five yard
line. Hough took the ball over the
last chalk for the first touchdown and
stretched the Indians for ten points.
Rhiel kicked goal. Thus ended the
scoring.
The Presbyterians made one more
rally in this period when Walker shot
a pass to Banks for a fifteen yard
gain. The game ended with the ball
in P. C.'s possession in midfield.
No outstanding stars were noted on
either side, however, some showed up
better than others. Rhiel and MgPhee
constituted most of the Newberry of
fense and made some nice gains at
different times. Copeland for the
Presbyterians showed up well, while
Captain Bomar and Kirven showed up
best in the line. The Indians regis
tered eight first downs to five for P.
C.. The Presbyterian line held well
and Newberry gained mostly via the
air route.

CLEMSON MEN
ARE EXPELLED
Number of Seniors Caanot Return.
Other Students In M Walk Out"
Less Severely Punished.
Clemson College, Oct. 24.—Twenty-
three members of the senior class at
Clemson College were dismissed out
right and four seniors and 108 juniors
were suspended for the remainder of
this scholastic year for their partici
pation in last week’s wlkout by the
board of trustees, which made public
its action after a five day investiga
tion, late today. *
Condition! in the mess hall, about
which some of the students complain
ed at the time of the strike, were dis
cussed at length in the report and
the aboard declared it was satisfied
with them. The students’ request for
the installation of a matron is under
the report stated.
The wftkbut was characterized as
“a challenge not only to the authority
of those entrusted by the laws of the
State of South Carolina with the gov
ernment of Clemson College,” but
“likewise a challenge of law wherever
sought to be enforced and wherever
propr and legal restraints must be
exercised.”
Read to th estudents assembled in
chapel by Major Henry C. Tillman,
of Greenwood, a trustee, the report
was received by the cadets with no
demonstration. There were rumors,
however, that some of them, although
they were reported to have signed an
agreement two days ago to abide by
the trustees’ action, would sqek io
leave the college by securing honor
able discharges. Clemson College ts
a military institution.
Dismissal of -Cadet R. F. Holohan,
senior class president, football star
and, according to.-the trustees’
“perhaps the most popular student in
the corps,” on a charge of drinking,
which immediately preceded the walk
out, was found justified by the testi
mony in his case, the statement said.
Most of the “grievances” of the
students, the report declared, “your
board is persuaded to believe grew
out of the great popularity of Cadet
Holohan.”
The punishments announced to the
student body were as follows:
“For seniors who left without au
thority and remained away 48 hours,
dismissal.
“For seniors who left but did not
remain absent as long as 48 hours,
suspension for the remainder of the
association, in which—he exppesswrj pa ted.

So John W. Davis Charges, In Speech
Before Jersey City
Crowd.
Jersey City, N. J., Oct. 27.—Speak
ing late tonight in the crowded
Fourth Regiment armory, John W.
Davis, Democratic candidate for pre
sident, informed his audience that )ie
had been unable to get any reply
from the White * House regrading
I resident Coolidge’s attitude on the
Ku Klux Klan.
“No reply has been made to me,”
he s*aid, in answer to a question ask
ed from the floor. “If the gentleman
has been fortunate enough to receive
one from any other quarter, he has
.more infromation than I. That is one
of the taboo topics in Washington,
but there are some other topics about
which the American people ought to
have some information and the first
of these topics is where the Republi
can nominee stands on the great ques
tion of corruption in government,'’

VICTORY IN SIGHT
Confirms Unqualified Declaration of
Democratic Chief on
# Return East.
New York, Oct. 26.—The unqualifi
ed declaration that he would be elect
ed on November 4, made by John W.
Davis, Democratic presidential nomi
nee, upon his return here from his
Middle Western tour was echoed to
night in a statement issued by Clem
L. Shaver, chairman of the national
Democratic committee.
Mr. Shaver called attention to po
litical history, which he said, showed
that the dominant political party al
ways had been defeated in president
ial contests whenever a third party of
appreciable proportions had partici-
Mr. Shaver said.
“Not in any campaign within mem
ory,” he continued, ‘has there been
so large a number of voters who are
either undecided or who have not ex
pressed themselves at this stage of
the campaign as to their intention
with their casting of ballots on elec-
very gratifying, Mr. Gossett declared tion day . i n this respect this cam-
that “in view of the splendid showing
the association has made and its
future possibilities and because of the
erratic and unstable cotton market in
the face of a short yield, there should
be a general turning to the associa
tion for relief.”
That Mr. Gossett’s view is shared
by others, officials of the association
say, is indicated by the fact that there
was a steady inflow of contracts from
new members last week. The week
also saw the heaviest cotton deliver
ies of the season.

paign stands conspicuous and alone.
“Not in any campaign within a
generation has there been so great a
drift towards any candidate as is now
in progress towards John W. Davis,
and I am convinced from authentic
reports from every part of the coun
try that John W. Davis will be the
next President of the United States.
“Undeniably a vast majority of the
voters do not want the reelection of
President Coolidge.
“The next Congress will be Demo
cratic. That statement is scarcely to
he questioned. This would leave him
powerless. The people know that
would mean four years of inaction,
strife and an uncharted beyond. They
now are realizing this can only be
prevented by voting for Davis, not by
voting for La Follette.
“The dominant politick! party al
ways has been defeated in contests
for the presidency wherein a third
party of any considerable propor
tions has been entered. There is now
every reason to believe this will be
the result in 1924. And there never
has been a great political contest in
this country wherein several political
parties were the contestants that the
people did not choose from the list
of candidates the concededly ablest,
strongest and best qualified man. In
1924 that man is John W. Davis.
“Good judgement and common
sense are directing the drift to Davis
and common sense and good judge
ment will elect him on November 4.”
Mr. Davis took no part today in
political activities at his headquar-
ters. He' remained at his home ia
Locust Valley, spending the day ia
complete relaxation from campaign
woYries.
Tomorrow he will continue work of
drafting his final political speech of
the campaign, scheduled for delivery
Saturday night, leaving Locust Val
ley later in the day in time to reach
Jersey City to keep his engagement
to speak there in the evening.
