In what was described by Coach Boyd Stokes ad “the
most exciting game I’ve ever watched as a football
coach,” Camden’s Bulldog eleven rallied behind the bril
liant performance of their co-captain, Jimmy Cox, to take
the Charleston Bantams 24-16 Friday night before a
goodly number of local fans who made the trip to Johnson
Hagood stadium.
The following account of the
contest is taken from the Charles
ton News and Courier :
“Sparked by the stellar running,
kicking and passing of Jimmie
Cox, the Camden Bulldogs defeat
ed the Charleston High Schools’
Bantams, who turned ur their fin
est performance of the season to
date. 24-16, at Johnson Hagood
stadium last night
"A Camden jinx that has haunt
ed the Bantams since 1941 contin
ued working last night as the
brilliant Cox brought his mates
from behind to win, scoring all
three Bulldog touchdowns, con
verting all three extra points from
placement and climaxing his ef
forts with an 11-yard field goal.
“Ernie Jantzen, Bantam end
playing under the handicap of an
injured knee, turned in a spec
tacular defensive performance and
Bantam Tailback Walter Daley
nailed receivers with deadly ac
curacy. 1 .
“The Bantams received the
opening kickoff but on the first
play' from scrimmage Fullback
Henry Shealy fumbled and Cam
den recovered on the Charleston
23-yard line. Two runs by Cox
set up the ball on the two-yard
line for his touchdown plunge.
He converted and Camden led
7-0.
