The Governor of South Carolina the first laugh, the Governor of North Carolina had the second laugh the executives were grinbothen all was over in the N. C.

ning State-South Carolina football battle here yesterday. It was a 7-all tie. The chief executives of the sister Carolinas were the honor guests at annual Thanksgiving Day meetof the Wolfpack and Gamecocks, played before 9,000 fans at Riddick Field. South Carolina scored early in the second period when Earl Clary slipthrough State's left tackle to climax a 51-yard drive. Grayson Wolfe point.

Nelms Covers Fumble. State's Wolfpack had played ond fiddle in the first half, but the Techs decidedly reversed things in the second balf. The touchdown came after four minutes of the final period when Allen Nelms, alert end, fell a fumble behind the Gamecock goal. The fumble had come on a line play by Ray Rex, a play started from the five-yard line and on which Rex had come forward three yards before being tackled and fumbling. Bob McQuage place-kicked the point try to match South Carolina's total, and the pair of "naturals" formed the score at the end.

State's touchdown concluded drive which had seen the Techs come from South Carolina's 44-yard line after Don Wilson had returned punt nine yards. The touchdown trip of each team was carried over from the preceding quarter. South Carolina began its own 49 and had reached the State 36 one play from the end of the first quarter. The last play of this period saw Stephens head swarm of charging Techs who tossed Mauney, on a pass play, for a 10- yard loss. State's scoring journey was begun late in the third period, and the Techs had come to South Carolina's 27, third down and seven to go, as this verse closed.

The game closed season for State, but Billy Laval's Gamecocks have one more test--and that with Auburn's Southern Conference lead ers December 3. It was the second tie of the season for State, which had played a scoreless game with Wake Forest. The defeat by North Carolina was the only loss of campaign for Johnny Smith's team. Threats at Minimum. Save for their successful trips over the opposition's goal, neither team presented a close approach to touchdown.

In fact, South Carolina possession of the ball in State's side of midfield on only one other time. State was in the Gamecock half the field at five other stages of play, but the only visit near the danger zone was in the third period when the Techs came from the Birds' yard line the visitors' 25, with third down and six to go. On next play a pass failed and Greason punted outside at South Carolina's 8. It was with the return punt State, started longest its run of scoring the game, trek. the chief thrill, didn't get into figures.

Late in the first quarter Wolfe kicked from his own 21 Bob McQuage, who turned in a good piece of broken, field running turn the yards to the Birds' 22. However, a State player caught in the act holding, Earl Clary, a player who well earns the football fans' adjective of "a sweet back," demonstrated that his advance publicity was well founded and led the Gamecocks. Lithe, and running with such ease that his hard driving seemed all the more uncanny, Clary was ever a worry to the Techs. Mauney, a soph, was the other big worry to the Techs and as a passer he proved very good. He completed each of his first four passes, and his fifth and last try was intercepted by Bob McQuage, who literally plucked the ball from the hands of the intended receiver.

MacDougall, sub fullback, who played minus helmet despite his thinning hair, and Clary were the chief defensive lights in South Carolina's secondary. Huskey and Willard led the line play. Bob MAdams and Ray Rex shared offensive honors for State, with MeAdams doing most of the gaining in frat half. Line slices by MeAdams were alternated with Rex's (Please Turn to Page Two.) CATAWBANS TAKE LITTLE SIX CROWN Moran's Indians Use Passes Effectively To Whip Lenoir-Rhyne, 20-0 Salisbury, Nov. Charlie Moran's Catawba Indians clinched the North State Conference football title here today with a 20-0 victory over Lenoir-Rhyne.

After a scoreless first period the Catawba drive opened up, and two touchdowns were pushed over in the second. The first score was the culmination of a 53-yard drive, with Cesareo and Appanaitis leading the attack. Finally a pass from Witmer to Garland for 13 yards put the ball on the Bear 13-yard stripe, and Appanaitis went over three bucks through the line Appanaitis added the point with a placekick. After an exchange punts a little later, Wittmer snagged one to return it to the 21-yard line. Then he hurled a short lateral Appanaitis for five yards.

Wittmer pointed his next toss at Pearson, fell across the line for the score. Appanaitis again added the point. The teams battled with little avail throughout the third, but in the fourth Wittmer opened up his aerial attack again. Four heaves carried the ball 35 yards with Pearson, Cesareo and Appanaitis receiving, and the latter went across for the score, his placement being blocked. Catawba completed 12 of 15 pass attempts.

Lenoir Rhyne hardly figured as a threat after the first period when a touchdown drive, long sustained, bogged down on the Indian 10-yard line.

Pearce Intercepts Pass, Runs 55 Yards to Score Intercepted Pass Five Minutes From End Gives Davidson 7-0 Victory DAVIDSON'S FIRST WIN IN SERIES SINCE 1920 Deacons' Chief Threat Halted After First Down at Four. Yard Line Early in Third Period; Baptists Outgain Davidson in Game Marked By Fine Line Play By WITT HANCOCK. Davidson, Nor. meant just that on "the hill" tonight, for the long, lean and hungry years were at an end. Davidson students celebrated their first victory over Wake Forest since 1920.

Almost helpless against a brilliant Wake Forest line, the Wildcats employed an intercepted forward pass a 7 to 0 victory, scoring late in their annual contest here today. With but five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Charlie Pearce, the pride Wildcats' stable of pony backs, seized a Deacon pass on his own 45-yard line and streaked 55 yards down the field for a touchdown. Not a Demon Deacon touched him. Peacock placekicked the extra point, Pearce's First Marathon. It was a cruel blow to the Deacons, who had out-gained, out-passed, outpunted and out-played the Wildeats during most of three quarters, it was sweet revenge At the opening of the second half the Plant City, boy tucked the Wake Forest kick-off under his arm on his 16-yard line and didn't stop until the goal was reached, 84 yards away.

His course was straight down the center of the field through the entire visiting team. The play was called back, however. under one of the widely discussed new rules. Davidson had not had the required five men within the redrew a penalty. These two straining line, and the Wildeats brilliant thrusts of Pearce's, playing his final college game, were about all the fireworks Davidson had to offer and were its only serious scoring threat.

Deacons' Big Chance. Wake Forest's great chance came at the opening of the fourth quarter when the Deacons had first down on the Wildcats' four yard line. Three line plays yielded nothing and an attempted place-kick by Myers went low and wide. Brilliant passing by Shinn, sub back, was responsible for the drive from near midfield. He completed a 15-yard aerial to Russell, one to Myers for 12 yards, and another to Russell for 10 yards, putting the ball on the nine-yard line.

A Wildcat was offside and a five- penalty made it first down, with but four yards go. Rising superbly to the crisis, tire Wildcat line hurled Myers back without gain twice and then stopped a lateral pass play, Shinn to Holton, at the line of fare scrimmage. Myers' placement fell short of its mark. On other occasions the Deacons threatened but not so seriously. The Figures.

The visitors rolled up 13 first downs to Davidson's five and pleted six passes, where the Wildcats were successful in but one, sulting in a five-yard gain. From scrimmage, the Deacons clipped off 114 yards to Davidson's 67, but the visitors realized. 69 yards on passes. It season for both schools and put Wake Forest in the Big Five cellar, although it held North Carolina and State to ties. Nearly 7,000 spectators, the largest crowd here of the season, saw the bitter, tense battle.

Wake Forest had previously been beaten only by Duke and Catholic University, while Davidson lost to Duke, Citadel, State and North Carolina. The Deacons suffered a blow early in the game when their clever little quarterback, Zeno Wall, was injured and forced to retire. He came back two minutes before the game WAS over. Lines Take Honors. Omitting Pearce's performances, honors of the day were carried off by the two great lines.

There were no long runs from scrimmage and the -Deacons, led by Swan, who played a brilliant game at tackle and got off some lengthy punts, and by Hardie and Green, ends, kept Davidson's fleet backs under cover. Jack Wagner, the Wildcats' veteran tackle, turned in another of his bang-up performances. Close Calls. In the first quarter the Deacons drove to Davidson's nine-yard line, with Lawhorn's driving heading the offense. Another narrow squeak for the Wildcats was in the third period when, with the ball on Davidson's yard line, Pearce punted almost straight up.

A Deacon touched the ball and Wagner fell on it on the Mus-13-yard line, enabling Pearce to kick out of danger. Wilson and Lawhorn were Wake (Please Turn to Page Three.) TAR HEELS TO TRY SCHEDULE CHANGE May Play Only Nine Games in '33; Collins' Contract Runs Until 1934 after the game. Chuck Has Another Year. By MADRY. Scott Stadium, Charlottesville, Nov.

14 to 7 loss to Virginia today emphasized the view will that next year the Tar Heels not attempt to take Duke and ginia in a row. Today proved definitely that this task is much too much. There were apparently well-founded rumors here tonight that next year Carolina will cut its schedule to nine games, so as to permit the usual 10-day practice period for the important Virginia game. It is a certainty that some members of the Athletic Council will lead a fight for the change when they next assemble the first week in December. Graduate Manager Charles T.

Woolen and other members the council were here today withheld any official comment. What team will be dropped from the present schedule in case a ninegame program is adopted is problematical, but conjecture pointed to Florida. There were several thousand rooters in the Carolina side of the stadium today, and they were a gloomy looking lot as they straggled out Quite naturally there was repetition of the talk about the coaching situation which followed the Duke game. Chuck Collins' present contract at Carolina runs for another year, until January 1, 1934, as a coldblooded fact, it was learned authoritatively tonight. And, if the Athletic Council follows its policies of the will not try to break that contract, regardless of alumni pressure--that may be brought to bear this difficult situation.

President and Mrs. Frank P. ham were among the honor guests at today's game, but Dr. Graham narrowly missed getting here. Early last night, with little time to sparebefore catching his train, he set out for Durham to see a faculty member who lay ill in a hospital.

His car broke down en route and it was by seconds that he caught the train. PRESBYTERIAN JUNIORS BEST LEES-M'RAE, 14-7 Andrews Returns Punt 45 Yards For Winning Touch. down in Third Period Maxton, Nov. College defeated Lees- Me Rae Junior College gridders, 14-7, here today.

Acle and Williams were leaders of the scrappy visiting team. DUKE BLUE DEVILS GET HOLIDAY TO SEE GAME Wade's Team Will Close Sea.

ELON WHIPPED BY GUILFORD ELEVEN Quakers Exhibit Strong Attack To Get 24-6 Win in Little Six Contest Greensboro, Nov. --Playing in the World War Memorial Stadium before a holiday crowd of some 2.000. the Guilford Quakers battled their way through Elon College for four touchdowns this afternoon to make a final count of 24 to 6 in their annual clash with the Christians.

A rally in the second half by Elon finally brought results in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter when Newsome, heavy Elon fullback. took the hall on a series of plunges across the Quaker goal line for Elon's cnly score. The first half was decidedly Guilford's, the Quakers scoring two touchdowns in the second period. one on a pass Turner to Newman and the other on an -tackle play by Norman. Guilford's stand in the fourth quarter when they were backed up to their own two foot line was the most beautiful bit of football this section has seen in a long time.

After receiving Guilford's kickoff on their own 37-yard line Elon drove down the field for three consecutive first downs to Guilford's six-vard line. Three morep lunges took them within one yard of the goal and then on the yard line Newsome took the ball on a center rush and was stopped by the whole Guilford team two feet short of a touchdown.

Bill Croom Runs 76 Yards in Third Period For Carolina's Touchdown CAVALIERS START FROM KICKOFF TO FIRST TALLY Stevens Passes To Johnson For Touchdown in First 5 Minutes; Sippley Features Scoring Attack Early in Third Quarter; Tar Heels Try 23 Passes By CHARLES PARKER. Staff Correspondent, Scott Stadium, Charlottesville, Nov.

Bill Croom, the Burgaw bullet, gave the folks something to talk about here today even if Virginia did welcome Carolina to Scott Stadium with the Tar Heels' first thanksgiving defeat since 1926 when Virginia won here, 3 to 0. Today's score was 14 to 7, and the Cavaliers, entering the game AS underdogs, earned their victory cleanly. Runs 76 Yards to Score A crowd of 15,000 saw the Tar Heels take a decisive licking, but it also saw as pretty a piece of brokenfield running as has ever been reeled off when Croom broke loose from a short end run formation for his 76-yard scoring gallop. The score came in the middle of the third quarter with the Cavaliers leading, 14 to 0, and saved the last of the game from the doldrums. Cavaliers Score Quickly.

Except for the brief spurt put on by the Heels after Croom's dash, there was never any doubt about who held the upper hand. The Cavaliers swept the reserves Coach Colling sent in for his starting line-up off their feet without adoo, and in less than five minutes had ploughed down the field for their first touchdown. They came back at the opening of the second half and did the same thing, and morose Carolina supporters changed their hopes for victory to a prayer for a tie. The game seemed as distinctly an anticlimax to the Tar Heel suDporters as to the squad. The Duke game last Saturday dulled the edge traditionally reached for this counter, and it was reflected in the crowd that came up from North Carolina, which was comparatively small despite the ideal weather.

Heels Kept at Bay Outplayed in every phase of the game, Carolina never seriously threatened except on the one casion that halfback Croom, in the game for his first play of the quarter, flashed. For few minutes after that it looked as though the Heels had found themselves, but a passing attack failed and the final tle found the ball safely in Vir. ginia's possession. For Tar Heels to remember next time they set about beating Virginia that here today the Caralier team on which few, if any, were willing to stake bets, came through with a brilliant fighting formance which left the favorites wondering just what manner of steam roller had crushed them. The Statistics.

Virginia rolled up seven first downs to the Heels' three. The vietors gained 150 yards from scrimmage while the best the Carolinians could do was 132, and 76 of that was turned in by Mr. Croom in one batch. Carolina gained 50 yards on the 2 23 passes she tried, but lost 30 on alties for trying so many of them and completing only three. Vir.

ginia tried only six passed, completing one for 27 yards and touchdown. The game was something of ited to five-yard for StICmiracle, in that penalties, were limcessive incompleted passes on part of Carolina in the same series of downs, and a single 011 Virginia for being off while penalty, Carolina was trying to convert after its touchdown. Big Edge on Punts Virginia also kicked rings around Carolina, Johnson and Sippley, averaging 48 yards in 17 punts, while Martin, Burnett and Woollen, kicking Carolina, could get an average of only 33 yards in their 18 tries. In Poss, Reiss and Berger, Carolina found defensive plays with penchant for messing up things. And while the Tar Heels were engaged in their own futile thrusts, Virginia's offensive was doing the things that show on the seoreboard.

Story of First Touchdown. Virginia scored first before Catolina ever had the ball. The Tar Heels kicked off and the Cavaliers started with the oval on their own 40. Sippiey and Johnson made it a first down. Sippley broke through for 14 and another first down.

Stevens also contributed a first down F. and then passed to Johnson, who of (Please Turn to Page Two.).
