NO yards and 11 yards for touchdowns ami aiding another touchdown by a 30-yard run Heyward besides running brilliant-I gave Von Kolnitz splendid inter-f renee on his long runs South line was weak at the start but seemed to wake up a little in the second half (By IS Gi'oiinie) Greensboro Oc 11 The slowness of the Carolina backfield their inability to hit the holes in the line together with their lack of generalship prevented them from scoring more than one touchdown over the stubborn Davidson line here today wtien as a matter of fact the should have scored a touchdown in each of the four quarters of the game Four or live times the white and blue jerseys were crowding the Presbyterians inside their own 20-yard line but a complete lack of heady playing and a laggard baeklield whose eyes could not see the great jagged holes in the line cost them chances to pile up a reasonable score Each lime the Carolina boys were compelled to try tor a goal from Held and each time Foust missed the bars only the influx of new nun in the final two quarters of the contest turned what would probably have been a tie game into a 7 to 0 victory IJAV1DSOX THREATENS Only once did Davidson threaten to score this bring in the third quarter when an intercepted forward pass was earned to the 2d -yard 1 in Then the Carolina line took a brace and when the fourth down was called the Davidson lads had been pushed away from the "White and Flue goal By the end of the third quarter Carolina had the pigskin on Davidson's 12-yaril line when the luial per od began Davidson once more held the Tar Heels and only six minutes was left to play when (he pigskin was finally pushed by an off-tackle Play iier the goal-line The kick-out was successful and Foust laid the oval straight between the bars for a goal Captain Abernathy won the toss and chose to defend the Xoith goal gaming a slight advantage in the slope of the gridiron Davidson clot ted to kick and the pigskin was hooted under Carolina's goal bars where Fullback Krvin received it and returned to the 40-yard lint1 After several exchanges of kicks Davidson found that the Chapel Hill Imote- was the stronger of the two as about 10 yards was gained with each punt The first quarter ended atter Carolina had been forced to try for goal ftom the held trom Davidson's 30-vard Ini- The honors were about even with the iv-cepiion of the fact that Davidson did not got beyond 'a rnl'iia'x 4 a rd line SECOND Ql'AIITKi: The second quarter xva ipejdedly in favor of the Carolina bovs for though the Presbyterian lads worn! plajing a plucky game the exchange1 of punts left them several vanls to the had each time The Carolina i lads began to hatter their way by main strength through the Davids hi line though had they found the holes insteail and there were plenty got but two hits off Plank while the Athletics collected six from Mathew-sm five of which came in the first three innings In only two innings did the ants porch safely on first-and even the rank and file of the (hampions of all ilniinpions had dlf-th ulty in hitting Mnthewson with any consistency Aside trom RchanF three I the four men in the upper section the Athletics hatting
