year-old Georgetown mansion,
reputedly once the home of Alex
ander Graham Bell.
The 12-room. five-bath resi-

Late last Monday and again
on Tuesday, vandals entered the
structure, started minor fires in
the kitchen and a second-f floor
bedroom and turned on all the
faucets in the bathrooms, after
first plugging up the drains.
Water flooded the second and
third floors, causing portions of
the ceiling to crash in the first
floor entrance way and in a
study on that floor. A gaping
hole also was left in the ceiling
of the second floor library. The
water warped fine hardwood

The University of South Caro-
lima might be disowned through
out the State if this becomes
common knowledge, but for the
first time in 81 years Clemson is
not the Gamecocks' big football
game this season.
Don Barton, the South Caro-
lima teams advance man, was
saying today that he never ex-
pected to see it, but the squad
was looking past Clemson toward
Maryland in last weeks big
Thursday" game. The Game
cocks meet the Terps Saturday
afternoon at College Park.
AFTER all, we figured to beat
Clemson this year." Barton said,
although we're just as glad they
weren't in on our little secret.
It might have made them mad.
Usually the first half of the
season at South Carolina is con-
cerned with a buildup for the
Clemson game. But we've beaten
them six out of the eight postwar
years, and we were favored this
year for the first time in a long
time. The boys were not too
excited about Clemson"
Also Play West Virginia.
Barton believes South Caro-
lina's secret weapon on Saturday
will be spirit. The Gamecocks
play West Virginia, another of
the Nations unbeaten teams,
later in the season, but there
has been little talk of that game
in Columbia.
"The boys have been living for
the Maryland game" Barton
said "They have tremendous
respect for Maryland but we
have a pretty fair ball club
some say it's the best South
Carolina team in 20 years. The
players don't think their cause
is hopeless"
Another item in South Caro-
lina'S favor. Barton believes, is
that nobody knows just how
good the team is. Duke beat
us, 20 to 7, in the first game
when Johnny Gramling was
having trouble with his ball
handling"
In that one, Duke scored it's
third touchdown late in the
fourth period after South Caro-
lima had fumbled inside the
Duke 40. The Gamecocks had

Since then, South Carolina
hardly has been extended. Coach

Letters 'GW Burned and Duq

Maryland University officials
awoke this morning to find their
stadium had been invaded dur
ing the night.
"GW" was spelled out in the
form of burned trenches in the
middle of the playing field
where the Terps will meet South
Carolina Saturday.
The letters also were painted
in white six feet high on the
red = brick facing of the press
box. Paint also was smeared
along the wooden framework
where reporters put their type
writer's.
Joe Blair, sports public rela-
tionS director at Maryland, said
the letters on the field evidently
had been burned in first and
then dug out.

For This Game All Season

quick points against Virginia and
coaSted the rest of the way in a
1910 victory. beat a fair Furman
team, 27-13. and looked much
better than Clemson in a lat
triumph last Thursday.
In fact. Enright has been using
his reserves to such an extent
that the standing joke on the
squad is to get on the second
team so you can play more.
Granting, the second best
passer Maryland will face this
year-Georgia's Zeke Bratkowski
is tops-could have played the
second half of the Clemson game
if necessary, Barton admitted.
The Gamecocks' quarterback ag-
gravated a knee injury on the
first series of plays in the second
half. He pleaded to get back
into the game. but Enright said
no.
South Carolina wasn't sup
posed to have anything special
before the season started, but
three servicemen who reported
just in time for practice have
made big difference. They
are Spec Granger, an end; Hugh
Merck, a tackle, and Blackie
Kincaid, who now is fourth on
the squad in rushing yardage.
Merck is a junior and the other
two seniors. They've been a big
help.
Several Other Standouts.
The No. man on the squad
behind Granting probably is
Clyde Bennett, a 6-foot-2 end
who is the leading pass receiver
with 154 yards and two touch
downs on nine passes. Other
StandoutS are Frank Mincevich,
240-pound guard, and Leon Cum
ningham, a good center.

field the Gamecocks are solid at

Navy in Good Condition
Physically for Game

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Oct. 90 (P).
-Forewarned is forearmed may
be an old military expression. but
Coach Eddie Erdelatz says it
isn't so helpful in gearing his
Navy football team for Notre
Dame.
I'VE know what they do" he
said today. But they're nuts if
they put in anything new. What
they have is plenty"
Not that Navy's once-beaten
eleven heads for South Bend to
meet the mighty Irish this Sat-
urday intending to lose. There's
another old expression which
says the Navy plays to win.
Erdelatz was just bemoaning
the strength of the country's top
ranked team. Scouts have told
him this Notre Dame edition is
as potent as any produced at
South Bend in years.
Weaver Able to Play.
Navy is in pretty good physical
shape. 1t got the expected good
word from doctors yesterday that
Quarterback John Weaver is able
to play against Notre Dame.
Weaver, 181-pound junior from
Wausua. Wis, was cut down
hard in the Penn game last
Saturday and has since under
gone observation at Philadelphia
and Bethesda Navy Hospitals.
The Middies are also eager
mentally for their biggest test.
And for their only trip outside
the East the Midshipmen are

with one exception.
Fumbles Hurt in Penn Game.
We're leaving our bag of
fumbles here" Erdelatz said.
I'VE took it to Penn last week
and everything came out"
The Middles lost four fumbles
when they hurt in going down
to their first defeat, 60, to the
Quakers.

William and Mary leads North
Carolina State, 1923, in the
fourth quarter with three min
utes to go. 1t is William and
Mary's ball, fourth down and
two on the State 40-yard line.
The last two times State has
had the ball. it has scored with
long passes over the reserve half
backs who are in the lineup as a
result of injuries to the regulars.
Throughout the game, William
and Mary has gained primarily
by pounding the line and run
ming the ends and off-tackle for
big gains. On this series, Will
liam and Mary made four on a
quick-opener off guard, two off
tackle and two on an end run.

terback, rate these plays /, 2, 3
