  South Carolina Beats The Citadel, B-7 COLUMBIA, S. c., Sept. 29.- A pass-conscious South Carolina football team smashed The Citadels hopes for an upset. 26–⁠7, here tonight before a Southern Conference football crowd of $4,000. The backbone of the South Carolina attack was the passing of Johnny Granting. The sophomore quarterback passed for one touchdown and set up two others with his accurate throws. Halfbacks Steve Wadiak and Hootie johnson shared the run ming honors for the victorious Gamecocks, Wadiak scoring twice Granting got in the running act by hucking over from the two for the final touchdown.
