' U9 By TOMMY GRAFTON Penalties and an almost uncanny nack of converting brinks into "ores, enabled Davidson to defeat resbyterian College 13-0 in the an- 1 tal. all-Presbyterian gridiron battle st Saturday in Rock Hill, i After Grey hpd returned Stamps’ ^ng punt from mid-field to P. r C.’s -yard line in the third quarter, the esbyterians from South Carolina •t ten yards on two off-side penal- s. Davidson then opened up the ; ue Stocking line* and Black wobbled rough a wagon road until he was lied down within two yards of the ^1 line. For two fierce plays the irriors from the Palmetto state held ce a stone wall. I It was still early in the third quar- er, and the - score was 0 to 0. On he third down, after both lines had >iled up in a seething mass on the 7 ery goal line itself. Wells took the all, and with a running ptart, cata pulted over the mass of players. It was a touchdown. Laird kicked the goal and the score was. Davidson 7, Presbyterian 0. An off-side play had paved the way for Davidson’s first marker. Backed up against the 10-yard line. Stamps had kicked a long spiral to Grey who was forced out of bounds in the cen ter of the field. Presbyterian had a player off-side on 'the play. On a second punt, Stamps again shot a long punt down the field. It was then that Grey, receiving and skirting the side; lines,«dodged the Blue Stocking for- Vvards to place the ball on the 20-yard line in scoring distance. Davidson’s Second touchdown came not long after. Running back an in- -tercepted pass to Presbyterian’s 43- yard line, Wells hit center for four yards and took it over for two more. After the Red and Blue eleven had spilled the Blue Stocking linesmen on the ground. Black ran through left tackle for six yards and first down. It was here that Grey carried the baM for the prettiest run of the game. He clipped off 18 yards around P. C.’s right end. Standing on Presbyterian’s 28-yard line, he shot a pass to Black who ran to the 11-yard line. Davidsn on Presbyterian’s 11-yard line. Davidson failed to gain. On a second play. Black took the ball from the Davidson center, and ran for eleven yardf without a hand being laid op hirtT. Laird raissCiLthe try for *jed by this battling fire-brand. point. The score now. stood, David son 13, Presbyterian 0. Presbytoiian made her only threat of the game in the last quarter, when Stamps stood on Davidson’s 36-yard line with a minute to play and at tempted a field goal: The ball went wide by many yards. Grey threw a sacre into the local camp when he attempted a placement kick in the firsFquarter from the 25- yard line. It was the same pbfnt from which Hindman missed a kick two years ago, and Dick Grey missed it by the same narrow margin. To the Blue Stocking stands, it seemed that the ball had gone over. Davidson’s 'Sol emn hush two season’s ago was re called over a like attempt which wdf>t wide by inches. Davidson had her strongest aggre gation in many years. Even then, it was a toss-up until Presbyterian’s players were tired out in the third quarter. The machine that Davidson scored over was not the Blue Stock ing eleven that had opened the game.! Griffith, one of South Carolina’s ablest tackles, lay helpless on the sidelines. Wilson, still weak from the effects of his long sickness, had baan battered until he could no longer penetrate the line for gains. But Davidson had unquestionably a strong team—strong er than the Blue Stockings. But it was generally thought among the South Carolinians that knew the Pres byterian players, that a scoreless tie would have been the result if Lee Griffith had not been hurt in the first quarter. Davidsoq’s mighty trio of backfield stars Dashed brilliantly time and again. It was Wells, Black and Grey. Grey and -Black especially played spectacular ball. Wells was almost as good. Black is one of the strong est offensive threats seen on a David son team for a long time. ^Jr ♦ , The entire game was featured by great punting. It was a keen duel between Grey and Stamps, with neith er seeming to have an edge over his opponent. At one time, Grey’s long kick rolled for a total of eighty-five yards. Stamps’ best boot covered seventy yards in the air. It was the prettiest kick of the game, although the Davidsonians gained more yard age. A blue-hosed Presbytlrvan towered head and shoulders above any man on the field. Marion Kirven, Presbyter ian’s dynamic center, played a game that will nevey be forgotten in Clin ton. He dominated. P. C.'s whole de fense. He was in nearly every play. And to tlje crowd of several thousand, the wonder of the battle was the indomitable cqUrage and fire display- Kir ven is the. ablest center ever seen in action on a Blue Stocking squad. ‘ He is unquestionably the class of South j Carolina pivots. | Stamps, too, played a brilliant and consistent game. He and Wilson ap peared for the first time together this season, and the combination, looks! good. Stevens played sensationally! at end, getting his man every time, ■' and playing a strong defensive game. Davidson made five first downs to three for P. C. Throughout most of the game, it was an even kicking duel with short gains through the line. Davidson kept’ her eyes open for breaks, found them, and turned back the P. C. eleven from a coveted vic tory. It was 13 to 0. W ANT Cj Furman Will Flay • M .»!.
