The Davidsonian from Davidson, North Carolina • Page 2

1 1 i .1 Ml Football Gleanings 9, LI ip If f1 lib "II 1 ing, it is rumored that Commodore 'money in Tennessee is mighty 'prcntiful, which is a pretty good indication of the 'confidence, they have in stopping the Tornado. N. State recovered somewhat from the-trouncing by the Navy and walked over the inexperienced Hampton Roads team 100-0. An interesting feature of the. game was the record of six touchdowns out of seven scrimmages.1 The seamen outweighed the collegians but were unable to make any headway under the superior coaching and training.

State College defeated the Hampton Roads Naval Base 100-O. Furman beat Wofford 7-6. Yale beat North Carolina: 34-7. South Carolina showed marked im provement Saturday over their previous playing. Although outweighed by the heavy Georgia eleven, they were able to hold them to two touchdowns, one being made during the first few minutes of the first quarter and the second ir( the last few minutes of the game.

A misunderstanding among the timekeepers allowed the first quarter to run for thirty-seven minutes, which helped to tire the lighter eleven. "Osticelum" White, the big center for Davidson on the famous 1916 squad, was one of the officials at the game. 1 If a close score shows anything about a. game, the Vanderbilt-Tennessee affair must have been some scrap. It is unfortunate that these old rivals locked horns so early in the season and under such.

unfavorable weather conditions. There was a continual downpour of rain from start to finish and the game was staged in a young lake. In spite of the wet field Tosh Cadv. the all-Southern tackle of 19 1 6, registered a drop kick from the 30-yard line, while Hatcher, from the as-vard line, did the same for Tennes see, leaving the score 3-3, which was the final count. Similar to this game from the stand point of score was the Furman-Wofford battle in Greenville.

The Methodists had the edge in weight but were out played by the Baptists, who really de served the game. This leaves Furman with a record of two victories and one defeat, the latter being administered by the Georgia Tech eleven. The Yale-Carolina game was characterized by loose playing, and frequent fumbling on both sides. The lone score of the Tar Heels followed a fumble by Yale of a punt behind the goal. Before leaving for the Yale game Nemo Coleman, the husky halfback, was chosen as captain for this season.

Coleman cele brated this honor by booting a couple for over 60 yards. West Virginia's defeat at the hands of, Pittsburgh leaves little hope for the taming of the Panthers this season un less it can be done by Georgia Tech. It was hardly expected that any team could put four touchdowns across on the powerful Mountaineers. The only time West-Virginia endangered Pitts' goal was when they recovered a fumble but were unable to make any further advance. The game was not as closely played as it should have been, several costly fumbles being made on both sides.

A big feature ifl (deciding the Southern championship will be the Vander-bilt-Georgia Tech game on next Saturday. The advance dope from Vandy shows that they have one of the heaviest teams the South has seen in years. The line will average 200 pounds from end to end and the whole team will' weigh around 185 pounds. Pecuniarily speak-( Georgia Leads in Inter-Dormitory Basketball One-Sided Scores Mark All Games Very Good Form Be- ing Displayed Inter-dornjitory basketball began with a rush on last Tuesday when Georgia took in North Wing Chambers, 33-13. There was not much pep manifested, and only a handful of spectators were present.

This has been the case at every game played to date, and the student body is urged to take more interest in their teams and get out and root hard. The game was a rather listless affair, with occasional spurts of good team work by Georgia.

The final score was not arrived at till two extra periods were played, the game- being tied at the end of the last half and at the end of the first extra period. There was not much real tearmvqrk shown itill the last half when South Wing pulled enough to overcome the lead of 'nine points which Rumple had held up to the middle of the half From then on it was nip and tuck for both teams, each' missing some easy shots.

Already an interesting schedule of eighteen or twenty games, seven or eight of which will be played on the hill, is being worked up by Manager Foscue.

The season will prqbably open with a game on the hill with Oak Ridge Institute. Although nothing definite has been arranged, the Red and Black machine will probably cross bats with Carolina at Winston-Salem on Easter Monday. Two trips are being planned one through the State and one through South Carolina and Georgia. With a number of old stellars and no doubt several new ones from the class of '23, Coach Crayton will be able to round up a team that will make the game interesting for any of Davidson's opponents.
