CONTEST TO TOP
SECTIONAL PLAY
States Conference Leading
Wolfpack To Play Clemson
At Charlotte Saturday

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 29-(R
titanic clash of Duke and
Tennessee at Knoxville will over
shadow all other football activity
in the Southern conference this
weekend.
These standouts of their respec-
tive Southern and Southeastern
loops will be meeting for the
eighth time. The Vols have won
four and tied one in the series
with Duke.
Tennessee warmed up for the
Duke battle by overwhelming Mer-
Ger 40 to 0, as compared to the II
to 0 victory won by the Vols over
the same school in the 1889 opener.
Duke had a stronger foe in Vir-
ginia Military Institute but had no
trouble in whipping the Keydets 3d.
O. Last year the Blue Devils con-
quered V. M. I. by a closer 2O-7
margin.
Tennessee stuck to straight foot
ball and revealed to Duke scouts
little of what Major Bob Neyland
is planning for this weekend. Duke
surprised both V. M. I. and Blue
Devil followers, however, by taking
to the air early in the game and
completing 13 of 81 passes to in
dictate that Coach Wallace Wade
has become airminded this season.
While the Blue Devils and Vols
are staging their classic under the
national spotlight, Southern con-
ference fans at home will be given
a choice of four top-notch contests
which will help determine the 1910
loop titlist.
North Carolina States rejuven-
ated Wolfpack, now setting the pen
nant pace with two triumphs, will
meet Clemson's defending co-cham-
pions at Charlotte. The Tigers
crushed State 25-6 last year but
the Wolfpack's impressive routs
of William and Mary and David
son indicate that this Saturdays
scrap will be a much closer one.
The Wake Forest Deacons, now
in the thick of the championship
fight as the result of the 1910 de-
cision over favored North Carolina
will meet a Furman squad which
performed under wraps in downing
Erskine 400 Friday night. Caro-
lina's Tar Heels meet Davidson at
Winston-Salem and Richmond
promising team engages Virginia
Tech at Blacksburg.
Two other squads will follow
Duke against southeastern compe-
tition, South Carolina playing those
potent Georgia sophomores and
Washington and Lee, beaten 1910 by
Vanderbilt yesterday. continuing
its interloop rivalry at Kentucky.
Maryland, slapped rs by an I'M
derdog Hampden-Sydney eleven, will
seek to come back against Penn
sylvania. The other conference
teams a take it easy. The Citadel
opens Friday night against Erskine,
| William and Mary plays the APP
prentice school and V. M. I. enter

impressive 81 to 6 victory over the
Chicago Cardinals before a crowd
of 81, 900.
Soundly trounced a week ago by

unbeatable.
Slim Chance
Nobody thought much of it when
Wake Forest first took the oan
and marched 60-odd yards down
the field. In fact, our neighbors on
the north side of Kenan stadium
weren't any too sure of Wake For
est,s chances after they recover
ed a tumble and went on to score
a touchdown.
There were a lot of rabid Bap-
fist rooters around us, and hey
yelled themselves right into the
medicine cabinet. But even they
the most optimistic-were saying
during the half:
.sWe won the first half. But that
Carolina is a last quarter team.
But came the last quarter ana
the Deacons' powerhouse never
missed a stroke. 1t moved with the
precision of a panther after prey.
Continued to gallop UPHELD and
downfield and held the Wanted
Carolina attack to a wheeze.
The Tar Heel machine was not
there. In it's place was a rumollng
cratic three-cylindered job WIN
a missing motor. Carolina was sty-
mied from start to finish. A
Ray VOLTS boys felt very bad about
it.
Clock Watcher
Peahead Walker, himself, was
a little afraid of what might hap
men in the last quarter. He couldn't
stay on the bench, but kept jump
ing up to watch the field clock.
He could have saved himself the
trouble, for the Demon Deacons
YER smooth as the wiles OF Sa-
tan. They looked like they could
have gone on two more hours.
For while Carolina was off-key,
Wake Forest roared like a pipe
organ in the Grand Canyon. Pea
head wanted to win that game and
he couldn't have picked a better
way to prove it.
Checking The Stars
As for individual performers,
yards of copy could be written
about the running of big John Po-
lanski and Tony Gallovich, but the
smart ~generalship of J.. V. Pruitt,
the Wilson boy, should come in
for mention and plenty of 1t.
But aside from that there was
some of the fanciest blocking on the
field that we've seen in times.
Polanski, Gallovich and Pruitt ran
and ran, but just about always out
in front of them was two or three
hefty lads clearing the way.
Competing Games
Wake Forest looked mighty like
Duke Saturday. In fact if the boys
had been dressed in blue instead
of old gold and black only few
would have known the difference
That's what is going to make
that Wake Forest-Duke game in
teresting. They are very much
alike in many respects.
But as Frank Gilbert, Raleigh's
APP sports writer, said to us that
night after the game: Its too bad

tees payment for such milk. In order

throughout the year, with only min
or changes in two outlying areas.
The prices of Class II and Glass III

based upon the price of butter and
during the year milk sold in these
classes showed an increase Of IL
to 16, cents per hundred pounds due

Missed Turkey Dinner

Leonard Lockard, of Elk Neck,
was preparing to enjoy turkey din
ner, when Sheriff Randolph upset
his plans and took him to Jail.
Misses Venie and Harriet Harris,
of Elk Neck, notified the Sheriff that
three of their turkeys had been
stolen and asked help from the
officers in bringing the thief to JUS
tice. Suspicion pointed to Lockard
as the probable guilty party. Upon
entering the Lockard home, the
officer found one turkey in the oven
of the stove being roasted, another
in a pen and the third one hanging
up in the cellar. Lockard was placed
under arrest and is now lodged in
the county jail ~
