Although the visitors presented an old

the first four minutes of play, they
could not hold the advantage. Shortly
after the contest started a trick play
netted the Carolina aggregation 25 yards
and placed the ball On the 20-yard line.
Three forward passes were unsuccessful
but the fourth was completed and result
ed in a touchdown.
1t was not long after this that State
began to play hard offensive foot ball

Tense TO hold the visitors in check.
Near the end of the first quarter State
recovered a fumbled punt at the mid
die of the field and just after the teams
changed goals 1t hammered Wake For
ests line straight through center for
consecutive gains until the ball was
carried across for Its first touchdown
by Fletcher. Knode kicked the goal
which tied the score.
Before the quarter ended State made
two more touchdowns and finished the
half with the score standing. 20 to Z

as direct result of a long forward pass
from Snyder to Rich. Snyder tossed the
ball 20 yards to Rich. who caught the
throw only 5 yards from Wake Forests
goal With only yards to go and four
downs in which to make the distance. 1t
was comparatively easy for State to jam
its way over the last chalk mark. The
other touchdown came as result Of a
long run by Fletcher. He broke through
the line so yards from the goal and
was not stopped until after he had stepped
over for the third score. knode missed

One of the biggest Saturday half

of its interest.
The start was unfortunate and prac-
tically decided the race. Starter Gas
sidy gave the word, with Andrew MIL

Of Ballot beat the gate. Schuttinger
took advantage Of his opportunity and
kept Recount at work. though he had
a snug hold on him. At the upper turn
Robinson made his move. with Lanius
been running second inside the last
furlong and made game EFFORT to
overtake Recount, but the distance to

tired after showing prominently in the
early part. O1ala took a tumble on the
last turn Of the field.
Some of the best sprinters in training
went to the post in the Yankee Doodle
purse at six furlongs. Edward McLean's
good old sprinter; Leoehares., was the
pity Witchet. and 1t was the latter's
hrst defeat in nine starts. Tippity
witchet was giving Leochares twenty
pounds under the scale. and he hung on
with great courage in the final drive.
Tippity was the first to get away. and
he showed the way until the last fur
