Tigers pushed over the winning score on a line smash by Ski Tinsley midway the fourth quarter to break a 7-7 tie and mar the Wolf pack's unbeaten record It was the first Southern Conference game for both teams A quick kick by Tinsley that sailed 56 yards out of bounds on 18-yard line paved the way to the decisive score and nullified an 85-yard run by Bobby Worst of Brooklyn Statp's freshman fullback the most exciting play of the game The big Clemson team marched 68 yards straight for the goal line after receiving the opening kickoff Bill Rogers fresh fullback diving over the last two yards Sub back Jack Miller kicked the point On the ensuing kickoff Worst took the ball on 15 and raced straight up the middle until he was in the clear then turned to the sideline and went all the

followed the break with a KuIdell-to-Thrash pass to the 20 to start their most serious scoring bid Four line plays carried to the 12 where the Hurricane forwards stopped the attack and took the ball on downs From this point Paul Cousins led a Hurricane sweep that rolled up three successive first downs advancing the ball to the Miami 4 as the game ended Carolina held a first-down edge of 10 to 9
