The second quarter started and the Panthers were holding their own on defense but North Augusta had the ball most of the time. Then in the closing minutes of the first half Owings of McCormick went over tackle for a nice gain. Then the Panthers started passing. Some were completed and some weren’t, but they man aged to keep moving" on down the iield until half time stopped them on about the twenty-five. The second half started with McCormick receiving the ball. They began this half with pep and plenty of drive. Their plays be gan to work. A pass completed to Herman Jennings set up the touchdown. McCormick contin ued to move down towards the goal. Owings scored on a wide end run. Gable crashed through center for the extra point. Play contiriued with renewed interest among the Panthers. They kept the ball most of the time but, failing to complete a drive to paydirt, punted to North Augusta. They were in possession of the ball when the quarter came. North Augusta, a few plays later, lost the ball on downs, and McCormick took over. They drove down to the one inch line before yielding the ball to North Augusta m downs. Beautiful running and passing was responsible for the gains. Press Gable tried a center buck from about the one but the ball was declared dead just be fore crossing the stripe and the score was nullified. The Yellow Jackets rallied after this and were on McCormick’s forty when the game ended. A series of long passes moved them there after an exchange of punts with McCor mick.
