RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 13.-PN
The Southern conference football
championship field has about mar
rowed down to Clemson and Duke,
co-titlelists in 10, as the cam
paign edges past the midi October
stage.
Clemson's triumph over the pre-
viously indicated Wake Forest
club by a surprising 800 margin
Saturday left the Tigers only two
more loop rivals, South Carolina
and Furman, to conquer for at
least a share in the conference
crown.
The Tigers impressive decision
also put the pressure on Dukes
Blue Devils who, after this week
ends intersectional jaunt to Col
gate, must topple Wake Forest,
Davidson, North Carolina and
North Carolina State to remain on
the throne.
Richmond's Spiders have o n
their only loop start but must hur-
Ole North Carolina, which is un-
likely, to figure in the champion.
ship picture.
South Carolina launches its loop
card against Clemson in the an
nual State fair clash at Columbia
on Thursday, Oct. "a. Maryland,
with only two loop foes scheduled
this season, and Washington and
Lee, meeting only three, also have
not yet yet played a conference
team. Other squads in the 15-mem-
Der circuit have been defeated on
or more times within the family.
Saturdays firing left Clemson as
the only eleven without a setback
against all corners and established
the Tigers, last seasons Cotton
bowl victors, as a bowl possibility

are next on the docket for the
Tigers after South Carolina.
Richmond had rolled up three
triumphs before being stopped 81.

Citadel met defeat for the first
time against Furman and the loss
to Clemson was the first for Wake
Fores in four appearances.
Only two intra-loop games are
set for Saturday, Washington apd
Lee playing at Richmond and
North Cardinals Tar Heels, whose
grid stock again is booming after
the 21-14 upset of Texas Christian,

YOU have all to be desired in
Hottest In Nation
After allowing that Carolina Il
IA upset to cool properly, last
night we talked to David Sinclair,
one of the ardent Tar Heel foot
. ball fans, and Dave used a very
apt term in describing Ray Volts
boys for a while Saturday.
For II minutes they were the
hottest team in the nation" he
say And that just about describes
them during the time when they
were getting even for that loss to
Wake Forest.
The first quarter a n OF
those cautious nip.and-tuck af-
fairs, with each outfit feeling the
other out. But in that second
period Carolina broke loose like
a Sunday morning attack of
measles and long before the ex.
citement of that first long gallop
by Jim Lalanne had died down the
home team had notched up Il
points.
That was enough.
For during the third and fourth
periods, the boys of Ray Wolf kept
the robes on all their plays, held
a fiery Texas Christian passing at
tack as best they could and came
out of the melee a winner.
When the game was over the
Carolina boys carried Coach Ray
Wolf and his assistant, Johnny
Vaught, off the field on their
shoulders. The mentors had beaten
their alma mater. And in impress
sive fashion, too.
Wolf ate turkey instead of crow.
How We Fared
We considered the past week
end the toughest in the football
picking business of the season.
There were plenty Of toss-ups on
the weekend schedule. And in the
outcome there. was more than one
upset.

missed, three ties, for a percent
age of 1863.
Although our weekly percentage
fell below the usual mark, we still
retain a seasons batting average
of IS per cent correct.
This and That
That $50 rout by Clemson over
Wake Forest left us as floored as

loss finished the last indicated
football team in the state, left the
