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

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.

Floor baskets of gladioli and fern
were interspersed with branched
candelabra holding white tapers.
Marking the family pews, were

mire, brother of the groom. Serv
ing his brother as best man was

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
