Here la a group of young men no one of whom Bad to relate la exactly aaturated with the talent belonging to a great football player Some of them are falf to middling you might aay and aome are Juat good honest hard-working everyday folk' Pluggera But they are all In all the moat earnest and determined and courageoua young men you have aeen play football at the University of 8outh Carolina In many seasons Had they all been born with the natural talents for the game In their legs and In their brains they would gentlemen be unbeatable Yesterday at Orangeburg they were a weary crippled and oft-beaten team Frequently they were a tumbling team as has been the case so many time this year Once they marched gallantly down to the enemy's three yard line to first and fumbled right Into the enemy's hands Sometimes they were a rough team one penalty of II yards setting up the West Virginia touchdown The Mountaineers never would have scored except for that violation and its cost But behind their weakness their wounds their defeats and tumbles and penalties they were as daring a company of young football fighters astany military regiment marching Into the teeth of 'bayonets There they were down in the awful sweltering heat of the fair grounds at Orangeburg One minute they were helpless and confused tragic The next they were magnificent Joe Grugan the coming star at South Carolina Bill Lowry a little man with an iron will Weir Granoff Crews Brown Blouln and the othera If their legs and their arms could only serve them as well as their hearts! And the hard way they are playing the fine way they are fighting Is no more a tribute to them than to their leader Coach Rex Enright A part of their gallant effort Is for him If This Spirit Lasts at South Carolina Coach Enright too was very warm in praise of his boys With a everpresent technical eye he saw flaws of course On boy might have tackled the West Virginia runner for example and saved a touchdown Things like that But on the whole be was not unhappy over the result What pleased Rex most was the goal Un stand that Carolina mads to stop a second Mountaineer touchdown in the fourth period before the Gamecocks had themselves scored They took the ball away from West Virginia on their own three yard line and Joe Grugan stood back against the bleacher planks and punted 7 gross yards out of danger It long after that until they scored themselves see it was an awfully hot day and those boys were pretty tired" said Rex "They might have been ready to accept another defeat down there on the three-yard line and allowed the score to become 110 A ball game like that might have ended 10-0 against them But they give in at all they scrapped harder and managed to tie the ball gams" Rex did not criticize the selection of plays with which Carolina failed to seora on first down from the three-yard line except in one or two minor instances The play he said has scored more touchdowns for the Gamecocks In the past two years than any other Billy Lowry 140 pounds was simply jolted away from the ball by the burly mountaineers and that was that The Finest Football Play of the Year In the newsreels I watched Tennessee's Johnny Butler slgsag through Alabama for IS yards in what I thought was the most beautiful football running I had ever seen It was no better than Joe Grogan's 80-yard punt return that tied the game yesterday Joe ran carefully and hard Ha Is not a particularly fast man and one he would certainly have been overtaken had he not changed his course very cleverly II had excellent blocking Granoff took out two men as the run started Bill Lowry took out two us it ended And tnereln lies another story Lowry had received the punt on his own 10 yard line He handed It to Grugan who earn steaming up on his right Lowry circled unnoticed cut back through the middle of the wild scramble and was at the West Virginia five-yard line before the ball carrier was There were two remaining Mountaineers left there at the five-yard line One hundred and forty-pound Billy Lowry sailed into thorn and they both went down He had started the play and ended It The 1100 people at Orangeburg will hardly see a more thrilling play than that this year Dozens of Good Games On Grid Menu IBirnettzz: BEDDIE BRIETZ In Brookl: By I NEW YORK Oct yn the cry is (AV-Over the embargo on Med wick!"

three-yard line for a first down Billy Lowry was thrust into tha Una once twice three times On the third he fumbled and West Virginia recovered Several other times the Birds had first down within tha

A little later Harvey Blouln who played a fine defensive game all day saved another West Virginia touchdown with a desperate tackle Still later Stroud tossed a running pose to Blouln for 20-yard gain Blouln leaping high for tha all and hugging on The Gamecocks were ready to aeon it appeared but were finally halted on the West Virginia eight-yard line as tha half ended 77-yard runback of the second
