Uncovering a snappy series of shift -plays that completely dazzled their op:)onents, the Laurens 'high school football team clearly outclassed the Greenwood Ii's on the local lot Fi (lay afternoon winning the g'ame handily 'by a score of 21 to 0. Lau rens crossed Greenwood's goal line hi tihe second, third an1d fourth quarter's, Tidwell adding the extra point each time -by pretty kicks between the hars. I Greenwood lost its only chance to scor in the first qluarter when it at temptedi a forward pass on the ten yard line with only a couple of yards to do. The pass failed and the ball was brought back to the twenty-yarid line after it, had rolled past the goal Iiies. After this the r ieenwood ladls never had a chliance. The Greenwood team put up a plucky fight, but t he line .plunges of the locals were irresistable. Coach Estes had a'docted several shift-plays used with telling effect by Richnond college lin defeating the Furman teani the Saturday before and the locals put the plays into such perfect and power, fult execution that thle Greenwomd boys were fairly 'bewildered. Quar terback Thompson, of the- locals, was master of the situation throughout the game and added several spectacular plunges to his steady -headwork. The liaurens team goes to Anderson Friday, where they %will go up against a formidable aggregation coached by 'Dode" Phillips, former rli-skine star. Although considerably outweighed, the locals expect to put up a sti'f light. The game will be .layed at the Ander son county fair and a large crowd will likely.witness it. ** * * * * * * * * * * * * ** * A MISSION STUDY * S* (Contributed) * 1* 1* * * * * * * * * * * * * * A Mission 'Study held at the home of Mrs. R. :L.
