Of 6-0 SCORE Ball Wig-Wags Furiously With South Carolinians Making Desperate Threats Against Margin of Visitors. COLUMBIA, S. Oct.

5. An afternoon of magnificent offensive football at Melton field today, oddly enough yielded but one touchdown and when the referee signed off, the University of Vir ginia Cavaliers had flattened the University of South Carolina Game cocks by the score of to 0. The score bears false witness to what actually happened to Messrs Bill Thomas and Sloan and others for Virginia and the Messrs "Crip" Rhame and Zdebel and others for South Carolina did a lot of football toting as they swept through brittle forward walls. That the final punch was lacking, proved to be one of football's cute little Ironies. The Cavaliers won at South Car olina's own game.

With Bill Thomas as their spark plug they made many trips up and down the field. In the first quarter one of these marches reaped that one and only counter. On the kickoff, Virginia swept the field with a diversified attack to South Carolina's seven yard line. The, climax was a pretty pass, Sloan to Byrd. Then a bad pas's from center turned the tide.

Gressette, who played a smart end for the Gamecocks, recovered. After Zoeble had punted out ot danger the Cavaliers unlashed another terrific offensive. Another pass. Slogan to Briton, with a 15 yard gain. Cramer and Kent "began to buck the line with telling short gain thrusts.

They sneaked and they spun and then Bryant careened off guard for the final 35 inches. Sloan, essaying a drop kick, failed to get the extra point. The longest run In the game took place in the third period when Thomas, the flashiest gladiator of the visiting club, got away for 49 yards on a straight off tackle play. "Cripp" Rhame finally brought him down on South Carolina's thirty-three yard line. In the fourth Car- olina tried her bag of tricks In an effort to get across the goal line.

They gave the Cavaliers a mighty scare and they ave the fans tre mendous tnruis put tney lauea in their purpose. Score: Virginia 6 0 0 06 South Carolina 0 0 0 00 Foster, Hampden-Sid-ney; Hartsell, N.

TROUWGE LITTLE GENERALS BY 2 TO 0 SCORE William and Mary Freshmen Nose Out Invaders From Washington and Lee by Narrow Margin. DAILY PRESS BUREALV Williamsburg, Oct.

5. In a listless contest on Cary field this afternoon the William and Mary freshmen football team managed to eke out a 3 to 0 decision over the little- Generals from Washington and Lee. The winning points were scored late in the final quarter when Collief, substitute back, fumbled and recovered behind the Indian goal. Ineffective punting hampered the play of the Indians during the first half and the kicking of Burgayne helped his team in several exchanges. Brothers, diminutive halfback on the Generals' combine, waa easily the classiest player on the field, figuring in practically all of the ground gaining maneuvers.

It was a battle of two heavy and powerful but ragged lines that fought and tussled to little purpose throughout the game. All of the gains were made on running plays with the majority of the ground gaining accred-itable to the oppositions' tnlscues. The Generals seemed to hold a slight advantage in the first half, due principally to the numerous exchange of punts, and In the third quarter began an offensive that stopped on the 12 yard line, where the Indian forwards tore through savagely to throw the Washington and Lee ball toters for heavy losses. Brothers had placed the ball on the 12 yard strip after receiving a pass from Lonegarn from the 35 yard line. After three efforts to score had resulted In continued losses, the Generals tried a pass.

This was broken up behind the Indian goal and the ball was carried back to the 20 yard marker. The Indians prompely punted to mldfleld. A thrust at the In lan forward wall yielded seven yards but on the next play the General receiver was thrown for a heavy loss. At this juncture, Halligan. William and Mary right end, intercepted a pass and raced 50 yards before being pulled down on the 1 yardstripe.

A pass was intercepted by the Gen. erals after the Indian frosh backs had failed to pierce the opposition forward wall on three attempts. Standing on about the 7 yard stripe. Collier fumbled, the ball slipping from his hand and rolling behind the goal. He and a quartet of Indians raced for the bouncing piksktn, with Coir lier recovering.

The game ended shortly thereafter with the ball in midfleld. Line up: I Generals and M. Bealer Bonwell Walker Moffet Balkin. Hinea Halligan Roberts Marks HanneJ LeCroix Cummings Gunnobill le. It.

A broiling tun beat down on the gridiron, little relieved by a slight breese, but Coach Raftery of the Lexington eleven, resorted less to substitutes than did Coach Bachman, who started his "shock troops" but made frequent replacements.

Navy, expecting an easy affair 1" preparation for its next week's Notre Dame game, had to fight for every Inch of ground and the Jliddie line was lucky to hold its own against a fighting southern forward wall. After Navy ripped throush at will for the first five minutes the Indians settled down and it was not until late in the second period that the Middies gained their only first half tally, a safety by Moret, who fell on a punt blocked by Beans.

For a time in the third period. Navy, although gaining more yardage, waa outpointed slightly and hurt by penalties so that the visitors twice pushed the Middies back into their own territory. Then Art Spring was ent into the backneld.
