I Thursday, October 27, 1949 A 1 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Page Seven The city of Clinton has been split into classes of people—the mourners and the rejoicers. The mourners are the P.C. grid gladiator boosters. The reason for the long faces and croco dile tears is the terrible Terriers of Wofford who upset P.C.’s home com ing regatta with a 14-7 victory. The Terriers were aptly named be fore the game since they were cast in the role of underdog although they hadn’t been defeated in the past 17 games. They even set a record last year and gained national recognition by tieing their first five games. It seems strange that the unde feated team should be rated under dog but it was so since P.C. had pulled upsets over Davidson and Fur man (both Southern Conference mem bers) and it was expected that the Presbyterians would have little trou ble with the Terriers . from “Woof- ferd”. The inside story wasn’t known. Such things as Walter Gooch’s leg injury and other injuries of his team mates were over-looked. Another fac tor which was over-looked was the fact that Wofford’s coach, Phil Dick ens, who is only a genius at grid works, had set up a defence which meeting to order and led in the ritual after which Mrs. W- C. Baldwin of- i fered prayCr. Mrs. Betty Siddall of Atlanta, Ga., was introduced and | spoke to the group on sponsoring a J local Campfire Girls organization. | Mrs. Sam McCrary, program chair- , man, presented Clyde Seawright of Laurens, county service offficer for An" ' It is with pleasure that we an nounce Mr. S.

The 9,000 fans who jammed their way into the bulging stadium (some paid $2.50 to stand inside the gate) saw one of the best games of the season and it was very much one of the best publicised. Clinton Downs Greer The rejoicing set of Clintonians are the stolid supporters of the high school football team. Clinton ripped through Greer this past week with a 26 to 7 score and strengthened their chances to go through the season un defeated. Laurens and Greer were I , thought to be the biggest obstacles ^ i standing between Clinton and unde- 1 feateddom. Clinton has now overcome , both these foes and are well on their : way but will still have to clean their toes since the .other teams will be i | after them in order to pull an upset. Earl McElhannon racked, up two | of Clinton’s tallies, Curtis Freeman grabbed one and Alvin Nabors count ed for the other one. Curtis Freeman forced the game into a different situation when he snatched a Greer pass from the air ways (with the score tied, 7 to 7, and Greer threatening again) and' brought the spectators to their feet ,j as he raced 95 yards to a Clinton TD. After the run it was all Clinton’s ball j game and the Red Devils made the most of it by marking off twelve points in the fourth quarter to “ice” the game. > Red Devils Meet BsUaburg The Clinton Red Devils will meet Batesburg-Leesville on Jbhnson- ^ield ; here, Thursday night. The game was originally scheduled for Friday night but had to be switch ed to Thursday night because of the P.C.-Cata wba Nfracas. The Batesburg team doesn’t sport as impressive a Victory as the Red Devils but can be counted on to give the Devils a rough encounter. ched semi-circle in the background Floor baskets of gladioli and fern were interspersed with branched candelabra holding white tapers. Marking the family pews, were white satin bows. Mrs. J. iF’erdinand Jacobs, pianist, rendered k program of pre-nuptial music. J. Isaac Copeland sang “Be cause” (d’pardelot) and Miss Jean Copeland, cousin of the bride, sang 1 "The Lord’s Prayer" (Malotte) as a benediction. The traditional wedding marches were used. Ushers were Jack Holland of Clin ton and Dillard Alexander of Whit mire, brother of the groom. Serv ing his brother as best man was Jack Alexander of Greenwood. The lovely brunette bride, given in marriage by her brother, Jamei Cooeland Jr., wore a toast brown gabardine suit with matching feath er hat and dark brown accessories. She carried a white prayer book topped with a purple-throated or chid. Her maid of honor and only attendant was her sister. Miss Sara Frances Copeland, who wore a cor al red gabardine suit with brown accessories. Her corsage was of white carnatjon and tuberoses. Mrs. James M. Copeland, mother of the bride, wore a dress of grey faille, with black accessories and a corsage of pink camellias. Mrs. Arthur Alexander, mother of the bridegroom, wore a black crepe dress with a corsage of red roses. After the ceremony, members of the wedding party received the guests at the entrance of the church after which Mr. and Mrs. Alexan der left for a wedding trip to the mountains of North* Carolina and Tennessee. • According to the records of the Duncan Creek church, this was the first wedding service ever per formed there.
