halfback found the Hurricanes more than a match for their higher ranked Southern conference opponents The game was played over a dew-soaked field which gave uncertain footing for the ball-carriers and resulted in many fumbles As a measuring stick these few statistics clearly set forth the ability of the two teams Both made five first downs the Gamecocks making four of theirs in the first quarter and the fifth in that hectic long-drawn-put third period Miami's first downs were distributed with one each in the first and third quarters and three in the closing period as they battled sensationally to tie or erase their opponents' three-point advantage In yards gained in passing and from line of scrimmage the Hurricanes out-gained the Gamecocks a net 200 yards to 142 In passing the Miamians had 131 yards to 66 for their opponents while from line of scrimmage the visitors out-rushed Miami 86 yards to 69 In the department of punt returning South Carolina was outstanding as they lugged the ball back 201 yards Including Lyons' 60-yard gallop to 8 During that first half the visiting offensive lost a net of three yards from scrimmage That is good enough in books especially when

plenty of boot in it It carried on high wide and handsome to sail yards and yards above the bar for three points The crowd went wild The battle reached new heights Pass interference kneeing holding and other penalties went ignored as the two elevens fought The Gamecocks through 24-yard run by Ed Clary carried to 36 Then Dunn intercepted a pass at this point to stop the threat An exchange of punts left the ball 4n possession on their 24 Wolcuff punted back to Lyons substitute halfback on the 40 He fumbled the catch picked It up dodge two Hurricanes cut a few yards to the south sideline behind grea blocking and headed eastward It was a great speedy run and there was not a tired Hurricane who could match pace He crossed the goaline standing Urbanyl missed the attempted place-kick and the night's scoring was at an end The remainder of this wild third period was marked with many timeouts and delays the crowd demanding In a loud voice "Has the clock It came to a close as Dunn took a punt on the 50 and fought back gallantly through the grasping Gamecocks to the visitors' 43 Possibly the best football of the night came in that final period Dunn opened it with a rifle pass to
