where there Is no overhang to the traps and its a pretty certain bet he use his putter to get out of the sand more often than any other club Such procedure pussies a golf gallery They look upon sand traps as hasards that must be overcome with a nibllc They are amased when Hagen putts out of one up to the cup Few golfers can control an explosion or chip shot from the sand-The danger of error Is great Thus Hagen when he finds the way to the cup from a sand tray barred only by a strip of rough that Inclines upward to the green depends on hla putter with amaslng results Hagen's putting stroke Is baek with the left and forward with the right His weight Is mostly on hie left leg All good putters as a rule play the ball off the left heel The reason la this position enables them to stroke the ball aa the putter Is starting to rise from the turf Stroking It In this way Imparts bit of top spin to the ball Top spin makes a ball hold Its line better than It otherwise would But those Newberry Indians certainly put up a great demonstration In the last half The fan who called for Redskins to show something at the beginning of tho third period did not hare to wait long before his request was

And they were right The aerial attack uncovered In the third and fourth periods was just about as pretty ae has been seen on a South Carolina field in many a day It waa a great day for Newberry depelto the fact that the Indiana came out with the short end of a 14 to 13 count While Wofford fane left the park apparently disappointed they were convinced that the Old Gold and Black team Is tar from a medlocoro team Newberry was outweighed by about 12 pounds or more to the man In the first period the Redskins repulsed the attack of their heavier opponents in the second period the Spartanburg

of the game Saturday of this week with Western Maryland but the young man who sent out the dope loses no time In perhaps to his own satisfaction the 21-7 defeat that the Old Liners suffered on Meltonqfield last Saturday As some one passed out of the gate Saturday he said "Well guess the weather was too warm for Maryland" but not a word Is contained In the "story' about the weather conditions He admits in his Arst paragraph that South Carolina was "a tough customer" That sounds well but this writer who doesn't sign his name starts paragraph No 3 with a "However" He lays the defeat on breaks and mlsplays" He says the Gnmc-cocks made only four first downs According to our figuring he missed the other half of first and tens He states further a penally and two mlscuca helped the South Carolinians along Taking his own line of reasoning was It not a "mlscue" or "break" that gave Maryland its touchdown?

here Saturday Farris literally startled the Southern football world last year with the brilliance of hie guard Play Made over from a backfleld star the Charlotte boy was probably the beat guard in the South at the close of the 1927 season This fall he was shifted to tackle but the color was lacking and the Tar Heel coaches have tried him back at guard In practice this week The color le still there in the big boy's guard play it seems that Farris was made for a guard for he is big and strong and he gets down the field under punte with or ahead of the ends Hie teammates say he never knows hie own brother after the first tackle le made and certainly he submerges all other ideas to the ont purpose of getting the ball -carrier Not one of the 28900 spectators at the Turkey Day battle with Virginia last year will ever forget the thrill they got when the big boy swathed in bandages from head to foot broke through on play after play to smother the Cavalier backs Farris Shuler and Schwarts kept the center of Carolina's line in the spotlight by their defensive work That old trio may play again next Saturday Experts said that Farr la would make a great tackle but the different angle of view at the enemy plays has seemed to bother him all season Hla one creed at guard hue been to charge through and get the ball-carrier and he could not wait for the play to get out to hie tackle poet Thousands

safety and a field yoal The entire squad is being put through an extraordinary hard weeks work Every man on the squad is training hard and consistently The injured list has cleared up and Coach Prauee will be able to throw hie complete strength against the Wildcats Saturday unless a serious accident happens In Friday's light workout Although the Cadete have run rough-shod over the first two teams
