South Carolina opened its home basI

The Blue Stockings got off to an

afterwards to give Carolina a
shortlived lead. However, here Adams,

far behind.
Harry Freeman, Tom Brantley and
;;; "Munch" Dupre were outstanding for

Wisconsin Invites t
Carolina Archers !
To Meet In Spring )
The University of Wisconsin has in- j
vited the Carolina archery team to take
part in a national intercollegiate archery i
meet to be held in the spring. The Na- I
tional Archery Association is sponsoring
the meet, and the Department of
Physical Education at Wisconsin is making
all plans and arrangements.
The team doesn't know until more (
definite information is received whether '
it will be able to enter or not. It is not 1
- financially able to make a long trip. (
If the Carolina archers enter, they will (
complete against outstanding teams of (
the country and if they make a fair
showing, which they feel confident of do- '
ing, it will be an outstanding achieve- ^
ment for the University. '
At present the team is trying to ar- ''
range matches with several other college '
archery teams, but nothing definite has !
been decided as yet.

Gock-A-Doodles I
by allen rollins
Oncc there was a man who went crazy.
Reason: he tried to solve the following
problem :
How can a team get three triples, one
double, two singles, and two stolen bases
in one inning and not score a run?
Well, here's the train of events. Batter
No. 1 triples and is thrown out in home
trying to make a homer. Hatter No. 2
does likewise. No. 3 doubles and No. 4
gets a scratch infield hit, No. 3 being
held on second. Nos. 3 and 4 pull a
double steal, placing them on second and
third respectively and batter No. 5 connects
for another one of those infield
hits, causing no advance on the paths
and filling the bases.
And here comes triple No. 3 from the
palmetto of the sixth batter. But alas,
alack, hrrniph, and tsk, tsk, the runner
on third gets off on one of those Charley
I addock starts, stumbles, sprains an
ankle or in some way incapacltatcd.
While he is struggling to reach the
plate before the ball is relayed back
home, the ball is retrieved just as all
four runners reach third base, and as
the last batter touches third base, making
his hit a legal triple, the ball is put on
one of the runners, and in spite of the
superabundance of base-knocks the side
is retired without having a run engineered
across the plate.
All runners were held up by the accident
which befell the man on third
because the minute one runner passes
another on the bases lie is out.
More strange than true but certainly
a knotty problem worthy of Mr. Ripley's
attention.
South Carolina's brand new football
schedule recently announced calls for the
Birds to oppose Wallace Wade in his
first start as head coach at Duke University.
Quite an ambitious beginning,
this tackling the team of a man who only
last year coached a national championship
eleven but South Carolina will have
a team that will deserve such an opening
date.
First rumblings of the 1931 football
campaign will be heard over the campus
immediately after examinations when
spring practice begins. Competition for
egular berths will be strong this year,
stronger perhaps than ever before in
he history of football at, Carolina, and
nany candidates can be seen working out
n the gym every day getting iu shape
or the opening practices. This is only
>nc of the reasons why Carolina should
iave a good team in 1931.
FOOTBALL PROVES
STORM CENTER
I'ootball is again the storm center
>f controversy in the college and
public press. Grantland Rice, sports
writer, and Bill Roper, Princeton
:oach, have declared that American
:ollege football is definitely on the
leclinc.
.An unusual amount of feeling has
>ccn aroused due to these statements.
Both experts believe that it is being
approached as a business and not as
i sport; that too much emphasis is
being placed on winning and not on
sportsmanship.
Professionalism in football in the
Middle West is also being attacked.
The University of Kansas was recently
dropped from the Big Six conference
because two of its varsity players were
Found to be receiving payment.
The Universities of Nebraska and
Missouri have passed a rule forbidding
transferred students from participating
in any form of outside activity for
sne year. The purpose of this rule is
to avoid the stigma of professionalism
by not allowing students to transfer
from one college to another just to
play football.

BEAT P. C. 5 TO 2 *
resbyterian College Heavy Wins
Only Knockout of Evening
by K. O.'ing Urquhart
The Gamecock Leather Pushers socktlieir
way to a five to two victory
er the Presbyterian College maulers
t Saturday night. With the cxccpn
of the heavyweight battle the bouts
re rather tame, Carolina taking four
cisions and winning the bantamweight
le when Truesdalc, Presbyterian star, ,
iled to make the weight.
Fifteen hundred people rose to their
Jt in the third round of the heavyight
fracas when Cheatham of P. C.
unded "Cowboy" Urquhart-to the cans
with a mighty blow to the Gamecock <
liter's jaw. Up until this point Urqu- <
rt had the fight his own way and
>uld probably have won easily on
ints. The "Cowboy" made gallant efrts
to resume the fight but the count
ten came too soon. Captain McQueen
P. C. won the closest decision of the
rht when lie defeated Stoney Hartin,
newcomer, in the middleweight bout.
Vincent of P. C. defeated Grant in
one-round exhibition match. Green reiatcd
for Carolina when he came withan
ace of knocking out Simms of i
C. In both cases the losers were 1
oggy and Referee Briggs had to toss
the towel.
Co-Captain Jimmy Brailsford gave
II evidence that he will be a serious
ntender for Southern Conference
nors this year when he defeated Boyd,
P. C. Boyd put up an impetuous fight i
rushing Birailsford time and again '
Iy to be met punch for punch. Both ;
n weighed in at 127.
Fighting "Red" Watts was a veritable
lirlwind in his victory over Graham, i
;itts floored 'Graham four times in
first round with wallops that would
*c K. O.'d an ordinary man, but the 1
lant Graham kept coming back for J
re. Watts easily took the decision. 1
e Carolina fighter weighed in at 138, ^
ng three pounds heavier than the ]
Je Stocking warrior. i
Wilson of Carolina took a close dc- J
ion from Parker in the welterweight ^
'ision. Both men went at it furiously !
J the Carolina co-captain did not get
edge until the last thirty seconds of
!. final round.
Stoney Martin, fighting his first bout
Carolina, gave Captain McQueen a (
rce battle that was not decided until <
' closing seconds of the last round. \
r a neweftmer Hartin shows promise, i
'Pug" Callahan of Carolina and Cas- j
V^ of P. C. made the customers take >
little notice in the light-heavy class ,
ten both men jumped in at the start i
(1 pounded each other furiously. Calla- i
ii was the more consistent and as a i
mlt won the match but Caskey de- i
ves much credit for the whirlwind
ish that lie put up after Callahan had
" Kr?ggy.
The feature bout of the night came
ien the heavyweights made their aparance.
It was a wild slugging and
esthng match with Urquhart having <
* e('KC ""til Cheatham popped up with
wild wallop in the middle of the final :
und that spelled the count for Urqu- 1
rt.
Urquhart displayed a better defense
d a lot more dash in the first two
unds. Cheatham's lack of defense alved
Urquhart to pile up a number of
ints.
Acting as judges to assist Referee
iggs in his decisions were J. T. Gittm
and Bob Thackham.
As a whole the Carolina team looked
od. With a little more experience the
rd fighters should give a good acuiit
of themselves before the season
