ANNUAL FAMILY ROW."
Carlisle Victor in ''Friendly Fight
With Wofford on Thanksgiving.

With Wofford on Thanksgiving.
In their annual family row the
the Carlisle Methodists romped away
with their denominational brethren
the Wofford Fighters, in their
turkey day foot ball clash at Rhoad
Park in this city. Utterly routed
from the very jump the eleven from
the Wofford Fitting school of Spar.
tanburg were hopelessly outclassed
and not once did they appear as seri
GUS contenders for the victory, going
down to a crushing defeat by the
decisive score of Al to what the lit
tie boy shot at, nothing. Quite a
spirit of friendly rivalry exists be-
tween these two good prep schools
and no less than four former Car
Isle students appeared in the Wof'
ford lineup. The winners scored
seven touchdowns and kicked five OF
the consequent goals. The losers
were not able to negotiate as many
first downs as the winners did touch
downs. However, the game was stub
bornly contested at times, and was
more interesting to watch than the
lopsided score would indicate. A
! big crowd Of out of town people came
together for this holiday feat here,
but the side line support was mostly
in Carlisle's favor.
Quickly after the game opened
Carlisle worked the ball down the
field to Wofford's ten yard line;
Large then hurled a pass to Smith,
the quarter back receiving the ball
across the goal line for the first six
points of the game. From then on
it was only question Of how many
the locals would run up with the
visitors having little chance to reg
lister a point. Captain Gordon in the
line for Carlisle played his usual
steady game, while CHM, Wofford
lineman, and former Carlisle boy,
played well and \deserves mention.
Cantey, Carlisle's left end, made a
pretty catch of forward pass for a
touchdown, and also did some nifty
tackling. Large at full back played
line game, and by the way, this boy
can surely execute forward passes
to a queens taste. In the last few
games Otto has been making some OF
the neatest and most accurate passes
ever seen on any gridiron in this sec
ton of the state, whether it be col
lege teams engaged or others. And
the most sensational play of the
game thrilled the spectators into an
ovation for Large just before the
close of the final period when stand
ing on his own 35 yard line he inter
cepteG a Wofford pass and aided by
perfect interference dashed IS yards
all the way down the field for q
touchdown. He not only used his
hands and feet, but also his head,
something refreshing to see in a high
school or prep school game; it was a
truly great run, brilliant piece OF
work that would have done credit
to any college foot ball player. White,
Caf7isle's star half back, never play
ed a better game in his life, and only
real college foot ball material could
have made some of the distance he
gained with the ball. He was at all
times a terror to his opponents on
the offense and horror on the de-
fense. Time after time he plunged
and burnt through the line like
bullet until he could get to a broken
field where he would keep going for
constant 10, Is, and 20 yard gains
More than once he pulled four OF
five yards with from two to five Wof.
ford players hanging on to him. They
simply couldn't stop this wizard, and
in fact, he couldn't be- held long
enough for Coach Gault to put shoes
on him; he played bare footed. Al
present he is perhaps the most likely
looking all round prospect on Car

some of the best actual playing that
