"| Camden Eleven Defeats Edisto Lads (My 1*. H. Bomar, in Orangeburg Ti mes-dJcmocrat.) Camden, Nov. 7.-?The Orangeburg boys met their Waterloo yesterday when they journeyed to Camden and emerged from u tilt with that city's excellent team on the small end of a :K)-7 score. The game abounded with thrills especially for the Camdeu supporters. I /ong runs were frequent and nice plays came often. The Camden boys have a good team with fast elusive hacks and a bag full of tricks. They handled the ball clean and faked Hkg Veterai??. These boys should go a long way toward the class "B" championship. Orangeburg boys seemed to b-j sluggish and uncertain in the execution of their plays. Doubtlessly the week's rest, due to the last three days of the county fair last week and the inclement weather the first two days of this week, wont against the boys. They lacked -the fire und precision they have exhibited heretofore this season. The chief reason for their r seeming sluggishness was probably the clean type of play they were up against for the first time this year. Camden's first touchdown came early in the game. One or two made runs and four or five nice fake plays carried the bull ubout sixty yards for a touchdown. They added another touchdown a few minutes later when a series of end runs and a pass carried the ball fifty yards to the goul line. The third touchdown was on a well executed forward pass of twenty yards, which was received in the end /one for a counter. These three touchdowns were the total scoring of the first half. A line play, an attempted place kick, and pass each failed to net the extra point after the touchdowns. The Orangeburg boys returned to the game to begin the second half with renewed vigor. During the third quarter they fought their opponents on about even teams. The teams gained ahou^ an equal amount of ground during this period. Three touchdowns were scored in the fourth quarter. Camden scored one early in this period by the same method which accounted for most of their yardage, that is end runs. Orangeburg received and on the third play, Gwinn, standing on his own twenty yard line, heaved a thirty-five yard pass over the heads of the entire Camden hackfield. The hall floated lazily through the air, seeming to wait for .John McNamara to snatch it out of the air. John grabbed the oval going at full speed and sped out forty yards to the goal ! line leading his nearest opponent to that mark by a full ten yards. This was a perfectly executed play and possibly the most spectacular of the game, uwinn executed a perfect dropkick for the extra point. Camden came back to score again late in the game on another end run bringing their total score to thirty points. Those boys seem to be too busy with making touchdowns to pay any attention to their extra point. They scored five six-point counters but failed to got single point after touchdown. The eleventh District Champions used reverse and spinner plays with | telling effect. The boys handled the ' ball cleanly and faked to perfection, j Time and again the ball was lost by the spectators on the sideline *ttnd it usually ondvd up with several yards gained. They used sweeping end runs for many long gains. Fast elusive backs were put on in an open field by excellent interference which removed the defensive end and half back from the play, then the back was hard to head off and drag down. Gwinn and Fair got off to nice runs occasionally but the continuous drive was absent. Roddy Kissam played a wonderful game at center i for Orangeburg. He seemed to be most everywhere and stopped practically all t.he close line plays. He a I s r> blocked two place kicks for extra point and partially blocked one our,:. In addition to this he centered the ball back flawlessly and smiled and joked with his opponent? in a true sportsmanlike way. Boys Appreciate The above published in the opposing team's home town shows the Or* angeburg boys were true sportsmen and all members of the Camden team and the promoters of football in this city highly appreciate the spirit in which it was written.
