C. Playing under rules that per mitted no kickoffs or punts and which allowed each team to start at its own twenty yard line and run ten offensive plays be fore relinquishing the ball to the opposition at their twenty, the Blue Devils and their Pal metto State visitors put on quite a show for the 1,000 plus fans in attendance. The Bine Devils displayed an awesome defensive align ment that at times simply overwhelmed their opponents’ vaunted single-wing attack. Defensive linemen Tom Ship man, Ben Brown, Van Zeigler, Jerry Powell, and David Whitesides were simply out standing in leading this on slaught. Brookland Cayce was held to approximately 150 yards total of fense in the two hour scrim mage, and 75 of these came on a little jump pass over center that was completed for one of B-C’s two touchdowns of the evening.

Jacob Norman ran the first one on a 70 yard sprint, and almost broke another long scoring jaunt a few minutes later. Denny Griffin passed to Wayne Robinson for another long touchdown play that cov ered some 60 yards, and sopho more tailback Danny Walker looked fine in running over the third touchdown from about 35 yards out. Coach Ed Emory stated that he and his staff were pleased with many aspects of the scrimmage, particularly Bre vard’s defensive effort. “We still have many kinks to iron out before our opener with T. C. Roberson on September 3rd, however, and we’re going to have to come up with a real fine effort to beat them,’’ he said.
