in . free-scoring game with
Clemson today before the highly
favored Tigers rolled to Q 1920
victory behind the brilliant run

Fullback Billy O,Dell.
Wells set q new Atlantic Coast

set only last week by Virginia's
John Bakhtiar who ran 1853
yards against North Carolina.
In addition. Wells scored two
OF the Tigers six touchdoWns.
Clemson, favored by four
touchdowns in this 40th renewal
of the series, scored twice in
the first quarter and seemed on
the way to an easy win, but the
Hurricane came back In the sec
ond quarter to score with only
IS seconds left In the half.
Furman gained 1853 yards on
the ground and 146 yards pass
ing in their best offensive show
Of the season. Quarterback Jim
Boyle hit on 10 of % passes and
his passing worried the Tigers
all afternoon. He passed for two
touchdowns and ran a yard for
the third.
Clemson rolled to 434 yards
on the ground, but Furmar's
alert secondary limited expert
passers Don King and Charlie
Bussey to 49 yards in the air,
one of their smallest totals of
the season.
Halfback Joe Pagliei scored
twice for Clemson, once on a
