Dowling at center will do the WORK
necessary. he is 215 strong and will
stay in his tracks wnen the pigskin is
being passed back for rush. While
he is comparatively new in foot ball
circles his record in this years games
is to his creidt. He is South Caro-.
liuian and in the game Thursday will
show the sturdy Virginians how 60

Fendley, at right guard, will be
there when the ball is put in play.
He has played on Carolina in tot
of games and has never yet allowed
the line to spring leak. He is line.
opener for the opposing team and
an eyeopener for the spectators.
Moore, left guard, is not so old in eA-
perience in resisting the men on the
other side of the bail but wild, with
the assistance of White, take care OF
the space just to the left of the center.
Croft, the old reliable man at right
tackle and who was a few days ago
slightly injured in the Davidson
game, now knows no reason why ne
cannot be present and do MS accus-
toned stunt. He is old in the ousl-
ness and Columbia feels safe when ne
is in the game. And Cogburn, an Ola
Clemson man, is on the other side on
center taking care of left tackle. He
has done so several times and Still
retains his good health.
Douglas Mckay will be on the right
end. "Dugs is not q2ite old enough
to vote but he has been old enough and
wise enough and quick enough to
break up some Of the most intricate
and irresistible plays ever showed
around in an end mans place. he
is Quick, hard and nervy, and much
is expected of him on the day every
body has turkey for dinner: Captain
Foster is scheduled for tie left end.
He is unquestionably in Mcka3's class.
He is of quiet and retiring manner
but in action on the field makes his
opponent wish that he had another
engagement. He is one of the many
Fosters who have played on Carolina's s
team for the past fifteen years.
Reed, the left half who has punted
and orunted and stunted with telling
effect in previous games will be d
party to the action on Thursday. Ii
the game with Davidson he went
through for gains when it seemed I'M
possible. And he knows how to get IN
the way of the opposing team when
the the attempt a stroll down the field.
Bowie, left half, is an old player in
this position. Es is swift and strong
and level headed and has added
iaurels to Carolina He is always IN
the hardest of the fight and has made
a name as a right half.
Now every body knows "Rut" Nc
Gee. "Rut'' is playing quarter back
this wear. His good head work and
quick, jerky movements have made
Il uncomfortable for some of this

uutting his men on the victory when be

He is an old Carolina man.
