19 (AP) A scrappy eleven from Presbyterian of Clinton, S. held with tht'ir backs to the wail time after time here this afternoon and forced, the South Carolina Gamecocks, overwhelming favorites, to be content with a 13 to 0 victory and rather glad to get that. In addition to a stubborn defense, the Presbyterians flashed a dangerous paaiing attack at intervals that kept the Gamecocks continually their toes lost a speedy Bluestocking back slip by them. Plainly the under dog, the Presbyterians learned early in the game that they could not penetrate the South Carolina line and took to the air whenever opportunity offered. BIRDS EASILY STRONGER The Gamecocks, on the other hand, demonstrated their superiority from the beginning.

After kicking off, they held the Blue Stockings for no gain and forced them to punt to the 50-yard line. With piercing the line and skirting ends," they marched the ball down the fit-Id In five straight piayi and Cooper rammed over the final three yarcis for the first touchdown. Zobel missed the kick for extra point. The second touchdown came in the third quarter after flashy running and passing with C. Beall and Zobel doing most of the work.

Beall, who throws a football like it was a lemon, placed his team in scoring position with a pass to Ed Zobel, his fleet running mate, that netted 27 yards. Then Zobel slipped over right tackle, sidestepped the secondary defease and shaking off tacklers to the very goal line, stepped the remaining 12 yards to the sec ond touchdown. This time he added the extra point. The final period saw the flashiest football of the afternoon. Eddie Zobel opened the quarter by returning a punt 30 yards through the entire P.

C. team and stumbled in open field to be overtaken. The Blue Stockings then Jammed up their line and the ball went over on the P. C. 30-yaM line.

Owens opened the period fireworks for the Prescyterians with a straight and hard pass to Jimmy Green which r.et'cd the Bluestockinsrs 41-yards. On the next play. Wolfe. Carolina guard, broke through the line to intorcent an atremDted triple pass and ran it back to the P. C.

23-yard line before Hogrefe overhauled him from behind. BACK TO PASSES Pearce. who went in for Hogrefe, hurt on the tackle, then intercepted a Gamecock pass and the Blue Ptockincs took the air again. Again, the Gamecocks grabbed the oval from the air and advanced it in line plays to the Presbyterian 11-yard line where the ball went oyer on downs. Owens unleashed another pass to Jimmy Green and C.

Beall pulled it. down. This time the Gamecocks fought to the 3-yard line and P. C. held, punting out of danger, as the game ended.

The Gamecocks tried few plays except straight line bucks and occasional end runs. Eddie Zobel, flashv little Carolina half back, divided honors with Wimberly and C. Beall. All three are triple threat men and each passed, punted and ran during the course of the game. ii ft MERRITT 1 Coble, Clary And Others Terrorize Georgia In Her Own Bailiwick FURMAN STARS SHINE By CARTER LATIMER (Sports Editor of The News) ATHENS, Oct.

19. Father Time, he r.f the lowing beard, did not figure in the lineup, but his whiskers tanked up the second hand of official watch and the Georgia Bulldogs were enabled to clock a virtrrv over Furman's Purple Hurricane on Sanford field this afternoon by the score of 7 to 0. The wining touchdown resulted from a forward pass that was heaved as the referees blew to terminate 'lie first half. The ball was In mid-air floating easily in the gloaming like a Zeppelin when the shrill whistle sounded but Buster Cook rtor.d on the goal line to anchor the gas bug and the rjlay counted. THAT THANK OK TIME With 45 seconds to play Georgia had possession of the ball 30 yards away from the goal.

It seemed almost impossible for a team to run plays in the twinkling of an eye. But Father Time or some clement must have been kind to the Bulldogs. Officials said that the third piav, a pass from Hooks to Cook netting 30 yards and touchdown was in the air when time was up. Ed Crowley, assistant coach, who directed the Furman. team In the absence of "Dad" Amis, ill at Greenville consulted the headlines-man about the time element and was Informed of the circumstances.

The coach had no other recourse but to abide by the official ruling, oh a heart rending stroke. It was the second time In the historic meetings of Furman and Georgia that Father Time had denied the Purple Hurricane a tie game with the Bulldogs. Several years ago on Manly field this old gentleman, who, with his reaper, waits for no-man, aided and abetted Joe Bennett to eke out a 7 to 0 victory over the Baptists. On that memorable occasion, however, Furman lacked only an inch and one second to shove over the tieing touchdown. If solace can be found in sucn a thing as a moral victory Furman and her multitude of supporters should be shouting in uproarious dice.

It was the prevailing opinion that the Bulldogs would stampede 'he Greenville team to destruction, hut. nothinsr like an uoheaval oc rurred today, unless it was the smashing upset of dope. GEORGIA HITS SNAG The Purnle Hurricane not only held the powerful Red Shirts to a lone touchdown, the precious prize bestowed by hatner iime on a pass from Hooks to Cook, but the visitors nutrjlaved their foemen in the sec nnd half and marched down the field under a baffling forward pass-in? attack to Georgia's 14 yard line Here the desperate hand of Furman was staved by a fumble. It was the second golden opportunity the Hurricane missed to score and possibly tie the famed Georgians. Furman's magnificent defense was almost impenetrable when the battering forces of the great McCrary, Hooks, Dudley and Johnson tried to perforate the line as they had done with marked success against Yale a week aco.

They had to battle with everv ounce of energy for their first downs, eleven of which were neeotiateri in first half. Their longest individual from scrimmage was a scant 15 yards and most of the three and four plays were necessary to chisel out a new dTne Hurricane accumulated four downs, all coming 1n the second half and three were ptled up In succession, as West Coble and Ike Clarey passed to each other in advancing the ball seventy yards to Georgia's yard line soon after the fourth period opened The crowd was In uproar.

VITAPHONE Specialties CAROLINA The Home of Paramount Pictures 52 To 0 Victory Turned In By Clcmson At Clemson Yesterday ERSKINE SMOTHERED By GENE PARKER CLEMSON COLLEGE, Oct. 19 Apparently tiring of winning games on one touchdown, the Clemson Tigers uncorked an offensive drive this afternoon which completely buried the Erkine Seceders beneath the power of its terrific onslaught and returned the Tigers victorious by a 52 to 0 score.

THE PARADE STARTS John Justus started things in the first period. Parkinson fumbled Woodruff's punt on the Erskine 25 yard line, Bob Jones recovering, and 1 in nve plays the Pickens lad had counted a touchdown. He was removed from the game soon afterwards, and Hane. who substituted for him, took up the burden. Hind-man fumbled on a line play and Bob Jones again seized the vagrant pigskin.

Seven plays were required for a touchdown on that occasion. In the second period Clcmson started after a punt from the Erskine 35 yard line. Raiford McMillan and Bub McCarley took it to the 10 yard line in five plays, and McCarley passed to Jones for the touchdown. Another drive started immediately after on the 50 vard line. Raiford and Covington McMillan carrying the ball, and Covington McMillan passing to Padgett for 24 yards, but the Seceders held on their two yard line.

Captain Pressley snagged an Erskine forward pass in the third frame off the visitors' 45 yard line. Goat McMillan tore off a thrilling 20 yards during this march, and Clemson drew a 15 vard penaltv a few plays later, but McMillan passed to Jones for 24 yards, putting the ball on Erskine's one yard line where the Goat took it over on the first play. On the last play of the quarter, Parkinson fumbled a punt on the Erskine three yr.rd line, Collins recovering for "Clemson, and Pitts crashed over for a touchdown on the first in the final nriod. Jim Cook later intercepted Ham- bright's toss on the Erskine 40 vard line. After gaining 15 yards, Clem son got another 15 yard penaltv, and Raiford McMillan tossed 15 yards to O.

D. Padgett, the Clemson halfback racing the remaining dir-tance for a touchdown. Erskine comple'ed a 20 yard pass after the kirk off, but their next aerial at tempt went away as Padgett gath ered it in and ran 5o yards with beautiful interference for another touchdown. Mulherin returned Phillips' punt 18 yards to the Erskine 32 yard line, and on first down Raiford McMillan tossed a pass to Padsett for 24 more yards, and the doushty McMillan scored a touch down on the next play. He then passed to Mulherin for the extra point.

FRSKINE THREATENS Erskine threatened In the final quarter. Parkinson knifed off tackle and squirmed through the Clemson secondary for 42 yards before he was downed on the Clemson 25 vard marker. Three running got but four yards and Hambrisht passed to Parkinson for first down on the Clemson 10 vard mark. The Seceders drove the ball to the Ticer one yard line, but the Jungaleers stiffened and kept their gjal line uncrossed. Clemson used all of the members of the varsity squad in the afternoon's contest, the substitutes per-fcnnlng In highly creditable style.

Bob Jones, who started and played almost the entire game at end, was a Berserker in the Clemson first line. Besides recovering fumbles on two occasions, he made many vici ous tackles. Captain Pressley was a bulwark, covering the plavs on either side of the line. Fattv Hall plaved nobly as did Padgett and the McMillans. The Erskine team put up a came struggle in the face of overwhelming odds.

They contested bitterly every foot of ground that Clemson gained, and the last whistle found them flchting gamely. Billy Phillips is entitled to a lion's share of their honor, along with Parkinson. These two boys were their outstanding performers on offense and defense. Clemson escaped without injuries, and will be in position to present an unbroken front for the Clemson-Carolina classic next week. The lineup: CLEMSON Poi.

Gray STROLLS LL York County High Team Goes Down, 31 To 0, Before Cherokee Lads GAFFNEY, Oct. high school beat Rock Hill high here today in the first upstate elimination game of the season for the locals. The score was 31 to 0.

The locals, weakened by the loss of Ramsay in the line due to the committee on eligibility, ruling him ineligible today, played rather listlessly and should have run up a much larger score. However to Rock Hill must be given the credit of having a well drilled eleven who refused to give up until the last whistle blew. Semeral plaved a bang-up game for Rock Hill and refused to leave the game even when he had been completely disabled. He was forcibly withdrawn in the last few minutes of play. A.

Humphries, playing his first full game for the locals was knocked cold by a blow on the chest in the third quarter and had to be removed. Proctor kicked off to open the game and after two unsuccessiul attempts to buck the line several fumbled and Turner fell on the ball on the 30 yard line. A line buck by Humphries netted two yards and a pass, E. Clary to Grey was good for a touchdown. The locals displayed their usual weakness in being unable to add the extra point.

The spuita of the Furman followers have risen hleh as the result of the excellent showing made by the Purple Hurricane in their battle against the Georgia Bulldogs in Atnens yesterday afternoon. Predictions have already been made that between 8.000 and 7.000 fans will witness the struggle between the Hurricane and the Terriers next week-end.

It was a big afternoon for the purple warriors, who penetrated the Greer line time after time for repeated gains, having no trouble in trimminjj the visiting Peach Center aggregation. Parker showed more driving power than it has in any other contest this year, and would have piled up a much bigger score if it had not been for the stubborn resistance and bull dog spirit of cooa fipKins' cian. KAY STEPS OL'T One of the most important fac tors in the purple triumph was the stellar playing ot Ansel Kay, scintu lating Parker backfield star, who ran with the ball practically three- louruis ot tne time, itay nas always been looked upon as one of the most valuable men at Parker but yesterday this young wizard took his pigskin in hand to write out his application into the ranks of Palmetto's outstanding backfield men. It seemed that every touchdown came as a result of Kays work. A shouting throng of four hundred fans saw the black haired flash take the sphere on a joy ride through the Greer ranks time and again, wriggling, driving, stiff-arming, and snake-hipping his way through the line lor nice, juicy gains.

K.ay was in his clement and he was unbeatable. A wobbly Greer line, fighting with the desperation of impending defeat, tried in vain to stop the flitting wTaith, and they bowed to the inevitable. GREER FIGHTS The boys from the peach center, outclassed and outfought by the purple eleven, nevertheless, gave ground stubbornly and fought Back at the raging tornado with a spirit that would not aecept defeat. Greer made few first downs and the ball was constantly In their own territory while Parker made a parade ground out of the field. Davis towering Parker captain, made some nice gains through the line, and Furcron, Kelly and Bed-ingfleld also had a part in the purple victory.

A pair of fleet tooted backs continually kept the South Carolinians in threatening positions by brilliant ecd sweeps. Galloway and Black, the Greenville organization held a trump card which was suddenly tossed on the turfted table when the Elrctrics apparently were backed deep into their own territory with little opportunity to score. Three times this Galloway galloped around Maroon flanks for long gams, only to be thrown by "Pec" Chakles, Asr.eville's midget safety man. ELECTRICS BLOCKED The Electrics tried time ard time again to buck the enemy line only to see a wave of Maroon come charging forward to throw the Electrics for losses. Aahef.lle, on the other band, found several delicate spots in the Greenville rush line and elected to make short dashes off the tackles for their most consistent gains.

Chakles punting saved his team from many dark predicaments. The tiny kicker averaced about 50 yards all afternoon, but had the breaks ot bounces with him in this par ticular. Fumbles early in the game cut into steady drives of the Electrics, while the Greenville overhead likewise was of slight advantage. Asheville scored its first touchdown earlv in the first quarter. The Maroons took the ball on en exchange cf fumbles when Cobb pounced on Galloway's fumble on Greenville's 33 yard line.

The march had started from the other end of the field. Clarey tossed a pass to Coble for a net gain of 25 yards, placing the ball on Georgia's 37 yard line. Clarey failed to gain and then a pass fell incomplete. A pass from Coble to Clarey was good for 11 vards and a new down, putting ball in advantageous scoring jiOaition 26 yards from goal. Pipkins lost six yards on a sweeping end run, but a pass from Coble to Clarey regained the lost ground, and then West Coble uncorked the surprise Elay of the He took the all from center, ierited this way and that as if to pass and when he found nobody open for the catch, he lugged the oval, himself, and made 12 yards for a first down on Georgia's 14 yard line.

It was the first time he had ever carried the pigskin in his varsity career. Then came a tough break for the locals. The mishap that perhaps cost the Hurricane to fail to deadlock the score. Ike Clarey, who had been playing a brilliant and spectacular game all afternoon and was standing up under the terrific battering of enemy like an iron man, fumbled on the next play and the ball buffeted about from the hands of four men, but "Puss" Cox fell on the bounding oval to retain possession of It for Furman. It was not a free fumble, however, and the down counted aealnst tne Purple.

On the next play Coble shot a pass like an arrow dart to his right wingman who caughlt tne bail at nis belt but ne was whirling around for the catch and it bounded out of his hands. Fourth down remained and Furman had one more chance to score, but as Coble backpedalled ten yards to attempt a forward pass, he was smothered by an avalanche of tacklers. Furman had remarkable success with aerial flips, completing five out of seven attempts. THREATEN TO SCORE Scoring opportunity was presented to the local eleven at the opening of the first half, but they failed to take advantage of it. Gaffney Smith, kicking off for Furman, booted a line drive Into the Georgia mass and the ball was fumbled.

Smith, himself, recovered the oval 27 yards from the goal line. Harvey Capps failed to gain on an end run, but Georgia was off side and penalized five yards. Capps again failed to gain on an end sweep, but a pass from Capps to Coble netted 11 yards and a first down and it was Furman's ball within 11 yards of the touchdown tape. Capps failed again. A contraction of muscles known as "Charley Horse" shackled his legs Joel Deery w-as substituted for Todd and he plunged the line for four yards, putting the ball on the seven yard strip.

Furman's chance to score here was virtually wiped away by an off side penalty. A reverse end run got back three yards and on fourth down a pass from Coble to Clarey fell lncomolete. Punt were ex changed several times, as neither team could make any neanway. ui a sudden the Purple Hurricane started the bombardment from the air that almost saved the day for the gallant Carolinians. Georeia's lone touchdown climax ed a march of 64 yards.

The Red and Black, horde got possession of the ball on its own 36 yards stripe when Harmon on triple pass, fumbled the ball and Boland recovered the vaerant oval. Furman was off side and this helped the Bulldogs to a live vara gilt, men Kotnstein and Dudley clicked off about thirty yards in a series of runs and on the fourth down, with a fraction of a second left to play Hooks tossed the winning pass to Cook, who was substituting for Dudley. Johnson place kicked goal for the extra point and the score was destined to remain 7 to 0. Furman's defense today both in the line and secondary was all that could be desired. It was even more effective than the front the boys put up against Duke, which saying several volumes of praise.

Ernest Bull, a roving center, was a terror in stopping the Bulldogs before they could even develop their plays. He was all over the field, a carload of TNT mixed with dynamite.
