Penn’s gamq last Saturday against the Lakehurst team doesn’t mean a thing, as the Naval Academy lads were more in the high school than college department. « • • • The most exciting game of last week was the one between Sumter and Darlington at Sumter. From all we have heard from those who saw the game, was a potpurrl of todtball. prixe fighting aad a dam good riot It is clainsed a Darlington player lost his temper and took a poke at a Sum ter lad, who returned said poke wiOi Interest. Whereupon more Darling; tonlans mixed )n, which of course meant more Sumter players taking part in the stirring drama. About this time the spectators got the fever and soon a small slxed battle of North Africa was raging al*bver the football field. Police got busy and batted the heads of friend and foe, belligerent and non-belligerent alike. When the battle broke out, ten minutes of play. Ing time remained in the second half but It was never played. And so Sum ter won by a forfeit score of 1 to 0. The Gamecocks were ahead when the blitz^started 21 to 0. >AQt THRCK Dumbbell Stuff # • • • We want to hand a bunch of white orchids to Coach McMillan of the mter team. In the early stages of e battle when toe Darlington gang seemed to have an edge, scores of players on the Sumter bench had ants in their pabts as they prepared to sally forth to aid their fellow team- mates. They were on their feet and ready to begin a flanking attack on the visitors when Coach McMillan miietly told them to sit down. And tney did just that, indicating the fine cooperation McMillan is getting from h|m squad members. ' . • V • • • ^ Our gan^ Invaded Charlotte last Thursday and_downed a heavy Hard- ing team 21 to 0.
