uposi closely knit team work. 'l'he de
fensive work of the Birds was respon
sible for their victory, as with Collins
and Li.ndsay on deck the Methodists
had rather the edge onl shooting, but
Carolina guards clung to them through
mit and would not give them long
luslugh peace to shoot e. .ciently,
though they did make some spectacular
mid-floor shots. Joe Lilliard of the
Gamecocks displayed some skill at the
big-bertha distance shots and Jack
Wright caged sonC )retty ones on the
run. The line up and suimmarv:

Citadel
Carolina 26. Citadel 18. For the
secoid time this season the Gamecock
perched victorious upon the back of the
fighting Bulldog and loudly crowed to
the count:ry armund the news of an
other basketball victory. The game
was clean and hard fought throughout
with very little evidence of the rough
stuff seen in the Wofford-Carolina set
to. Some few may say the game was
fast, but ye scribe came near having
heart failure several times when in a
pinch O'Shangnessevy took a long try
at the hoop, and then wmuld forget the
danger for a minute when by some
pretty team work tle Birds would ring
til) a goal.
Tlel Crawford prteges got off to a
two point lead early inl the scrap but
were able to hold it for only the brief
est while, for Citadel somn took a (ne
pmint lead. Hardly befme the apjlauste
had ceased once more the old walls

Carolina 21, Pacific Mills 14. For
tle second time in successive nights,
and three times within a week, the
Gamecocks scored a victory oi the has

Wallace had a game scheduled with
the University of Florida. Somehow
or other they failed to arrive, or so'it

N(Irth Cifarilinma State and were the re

that ball within scoring distance.
Swink played well at center and also
great at guard when Abrams was sent
frtmi the floor. Gasque, subbing for
L,illiard at forward, got in several pret
ty shots from the side of the floor.
Wallace for the Pacifies, was the high
st trer. Sparkman did some good flowr
wt,rk. but a very itiusual thing hap
pened in that hie failed to score a sin
gle point. He apparentily was sadly off
and also was well covered. Beden

Tile guards played jam-ip hall. The
sec4re testifies that such was the case.
h'lle first hal f ended with the Game
cocks leading 9-4. Several minutes
passed in the secon)1d hlf before either
side registered a poiint. The Pacifics
sc0Ted several points and came within
oe poiit of tying the score. From
then to Captain Jack and Comtpaly
got husy and quickly drew away from
danger.
This victory puts the Carolina crews
in fine running for the State title.
The Pacifies have twice defeated New
