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

The Gamecocks were ahead when the

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
