113 have FURMAN PLAYED DAVIDSON TO A STANDSTILL ALTHOUGH LOCAL ELEVEN LOST GAME Excellent Game At Riverside Was Won By Visitors By Score of 28 to 7 SPEEDY SPEER IN GAME Davidson's Brilliant Work Was In End Run Plays By Fast Backfield Although Davidson by hard work and dogged perseverance managed to defeat Furman yesterday 28 to 7, Furman furnished afternoon. el hundred spectators a queer bit of sensation by her complete rejuvenation since last contest with Clemson, and the concensus of opinion row the last whistle was among those, who filed out the narblown was that they had seen a real football game and had received their money's worth. The unevenness of the score does not give a just account or the game--it was not a burns ed dance for the Tar Heels and it they had not kept up the material spirit from reveille until taps they might gone under the wane. As it was, Furman fought them for every in A of territory and only succumbed by reason of juvenility and inexperience. The two teams were pretty evenly matched insofar as weight was med.

Davidson taking a slight tip of the scales. Davidson showed special skill in the long end runs which were executbrilliantly by her fleet backfield, of which the main figures were Flowers, Burns and Spann. These three agile players darted for gains en almost every attempt but for some reason or the other the quarterback resorted to straight football rather than the forte of their ability and for this reason the playing was slow durtie first halt of the game. Flowers was the particular star of the Presbyterians, exhibiting himself ausniciously on account of both his running and his toe. Davidson scored only one touchdown during the first halt, this one coming in the first quarter when, afbeing held for downs on Furman's 20-yard line, she kicked.

held Furman for downs, and then returned the ball rapidly to the 10-yard line where it was carried on the third down by Burns. Their line plunges were well handled and re3 battling ram. Furman WaD only able to stop these rushes by a splendid secondary defense of the backfield. and even then they usually resulted in gains of considerable yards. Davidson scored another touchdown in the third quarter and two in the fourth, the last one coma result of three perfectly executed forward passes in the last three minutes of play.

Furman's touchdown came in the last quarter and was the outcome of the handy work of Speedy Speer, the formidable little halfback who manipulated the greater part of Furman's offensive and backfield defens- THE GREENVILLE DAILY NEWS SUNDAY, NOV. 4, 1917 the The third quarter was shrapnel. Both teams hammered upon one ther fiercely with the result that Davidson annexed one touchdown and left the ball at the end of the quarter on the 2-yard line where it was easily carried over at the beginning of the last quarter. Furman had little success in the third quarter in offensive work but showed promise of scoring before the game was over. The fourth quarter was the most interesting of the game for the reason that Furman broke the ice and scored.

After Davidson had carried the bail over at the beginning of the period, Grap kicked and the ball went out of bounds. It was brought out to the twenty yard line and placed in Furman's possession. Speer gained three yards over lest tackle. Speer gained another through center. On a criss-cross Gregory brought the oval 15 yards upfield, Spann making a finished tackle.

Speer fumbled but recovered the ball and gained a yard. A forward pass failed. Gressette caught a forward pass from Speer and advanced 20 yards. Spann intercepted a forward pass and Davidson received the ball. Davidson was penalized twice for holding, and the line was forced to the goal posts.

Spann then kicked and Furman again had the ball on the 40-yard line. Gressette gained half a down through the line. Speer caught a forward pass from Rhame for 15 yards, placing ball on the 30-yard line. Speer gained four on an end run. A forward pass failed.

Speer ran, slipped and then circled right end, carrying the ball to the 10-yard line. Speer caught a forward pass from Gresette with the ball on the 2-yard line. Davidson was penalized a yard for technicality. Gressette did not gain for first down. Rhame carried the ball over for a touchdown, after which Speer kicked and Furman had a total of seven points.

next two minutes perfect Davidson made a in the touchdown, forward passes which conveyed the ball to the bars without much interference. Here the game ended and the crowd dispersed.

Substitutes: Davidson, Clark for ive. Three forward passes from Speer to Gressette and Rhame to Speer carried the ball to the 2-yard lines and then Rhame smuggled through the defenses for Furman's first and only touchdown. The Furman studentry it was a creditable event went -jingle at the good work, for against the artillery which the warriors had to fight. To pick up a handful of stars from either team would be a difficult task, for there was very little of individualistic work; no long runs for touchdowns or anything of the sort. It is only fair to say, however, that Speer again did his superb work for the Baptists and was the chief object of despair to the visitors.

He tackled accurately and opportunity, nabbing several broken field runners when a touchdown looked sure. Rhame also played well and deserves mention. He has shown wonderful improvement since the beginning of the game and was "right there" both in carrying the ball and in tackling. Gressette and Gregory also did well. Nixon and Shirley made several nice tackles.

For Davidson, Flowers and Spann were particulars in the backfield while Gray with his brawny muscles did good work in the line. The prettiest feature of Davidson's playing was the rigid interference they ran--that interference which Furman last year after victory looked sure at this end of first half. Bill Wetzer has a well trained crew and to be praised capturing yesterday's contest. Game Interesting. From the standpoint of spectator the game as perhaps the most interesting played here this season.

It was a continuous and that is the spice of the gridiron. True, Davidson outclassed the locals but they were given ample opportunity to tion. From previous records of prove it in meetinre the stiff opposiDavidson's works this season the dope was that they were to have won by a much larger score than they did, but then dope generally goes wrong. sketched outline of how the scoring was done is something like this: In the first quarter Speer kicked, Davidson received the ball and returned it to the 30-yard line. Davidson was held for downs, kicked and Furman received the ball on the 15-yard line.

Furman could not make downs and kicked. Davidson rushed the ball down the Afield by end runs and line plunges and made a touchdown, Burns carrying the ball over. Furman next received the ball, tried two downs and failed. Speer kicked, and Davidson received ball on 55-yard line. Davidson gained 15 yards and the quarter ended with the ball mid-field.

In the second quarter was no scoring. Davidson carried ball to there. the 30-yard ine by end run of Flowers, but was penalized 5 yards. They could not recover the loss and Flowers attempted a field goal from this line but it was of no avail. Furman then had the ball on her own 20-yard line, but after trying two downs kicked and Spann was downed in his tracks on the 70-yard line.

They then brought the ball upfield to Furman's 30-yard line where they lost it on downs. Furman received the ball and the quarter ended with it in her possession near the 40-yard line.
