GAB Pugilisti y tBirds Have > Vets Back' Strong Team Looms Frankie DeMars Will Coaoh Boxers For Stiff Schedule To Start January 9 By O. H. SKEWES University of South Carolina pugilists will start prepping for one of the hardest boxing schedules ever arranged for a Carolina mitt team on October 13 when candidates report for the first workout at the University I gym under the supervision of Coach Frankie DeMars. With seven veterans returned from last year's state championship team, everything augurs well for a success*ful 1932 season which gets under way on the night of January 9 when the Gamecocks meet the Presbyterian college fighters. All last year's fighters in all divisions are back, and will be bolstered in every weight by a fine crop of sophomores. The most notable and needed reinforcement will be in the heavyweight class. McManus, who won the heavyweight title in the intramural boxing tournament last winter, is the outstanding contender in the heavyweight division. He will be given competition by "Fuz" Freeman, a junior, and Joe Johnson, and Freeman Huskey, sophomores. Carolina is fortunate in having the services of Frankie DeMars, ex-marine v fighter, to instruct the fighters, De- r Mars has a fine record, having fought a some of the country's best middle- e weights. The Carolina fighters have a stiff schedule booked for them. Besides * meeting P. C. in the opening bout on ^ January 9th, the Bird gladiators meet r the University of Florida, the Citadel, 1 Clemson, V. M. I., Duke, North Carolina State, and the University of North Carolina.

He made the trip to Baton Rouge, but it is doubtful that he will be used.

A long pass, McArthur to Slocum counted the Golden Tornado's touchdown that began the scoring and a few moments later Barron ran around right end for another six points. However, in the second quarter, Carolina came back with a powerful air attack that overran Tech for two markers to knOt the cbunt. The entrance of the gaunt "Grey'' Wolfe into the fray in the second stanza marked the offensive push that gave the Birds their thirteen points. The passing combination Biddies Defeai Frosh I Frosh To Meet Clemson Plebes With a victory over P. C. to their crcdit, the Carolina Biddies arc working out daily under the guidance of Coach Norman in the effort to iron out the flaws that appeared in the erratic playing they exhibited in the Saturday game. Their next game is with Clemson Cubs the day before the varsity game with the Tigers in two weeks. There will probably be several changes in the Biddie lineup and much work will be done in the mean time to perfect their tactics. Split Looms In Conference Probability of a split up in Southern Conference ranks loomed this week with the proposed forming of a Big Ten within the ranks of the conference. Eight teams arc at present entering into the negotiations namely, Auburn, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Florida, North Carolina, Kentucky, Vanderbilt and Tulane. The other two teams would be picked later, probably from among Alabama, Duke and Tennessee. Coaches of the various schools seemed to think that it would raise Southern football to a much higher standard than the one which it has at present. Neither the University of South Carolina nor any of her South Carolina schools arc included in the proposed split. U. H. O. A Carolina graduate stalked into the office and demanded to see the manager. "I'm sorry, but he's not here," replied the clerk. "Is there anything I can do?" "No," snapped the pompous one. "I never deal with underlings. Pll \^vait until the manager returns." Very well, take a seat," said the clerk, and went on with his work. I About an hour "later .the man became impatient. "How much longer do you think the manage!; will be?" he demanded. "Nearly a fortnight," was the reply. "He went on his vacation this week." ' . * in . . .. : i tV. t . v.

Call +rnado ramecocks Tech At Half; Wolfe Star Of Day' aby Shows Form At End Post i of Wolfe, Clafy au^l Hambriglit served to heave desperation into the Tech stands as they chalked up two touchdowns in rapid fire order. Tech recovered from this onslaught in the last half and with the breaks managed to make two more touchdowns, their margin of victory. The remarkable all round playing of Grayson Wolfe who replaced Dick Shinn at quarter was the highlight of the day and Nolan Raby, sub end flashed big time form at that position. Both are slated to see heavy service the rest of the season. Clary was the most consistent ground gainer of the day stepping off more than 100 yards, followed by Barron of Tech who reeled off 88. Hambriglit was good for 60 yards. The last quarter was played under flood lights. t P.C. n Opener, 7-6 t Rats Score Early In Game And Remain On Defense Rest Of Day Plainly suffering from inexperience and lack of coordination the Carolina freshmen harely managed to eke out a 7-6 win over the heavier Presbyterian rat eleven here Saturday. A combination of McCrady and McDougall in the early part of the game gave tlie Biddies their lone touchdown of the day and from then on the Blue Socks assumed a driving offensive, crossing the Biddy goal once and threatening again several times. The Biddies were clearly outplayed during the entire second half but P. C. never (|uite had the punch to push over the winning points. The Carolina team never clicked as a whole but a few individuals managed to shine during the fray. At center O. C. Ray, heavy center from Texas looked good and McAbee, 220 pound tackle and Munn looked good in the line. The whole backfield played together well, McCrady, McDougall, Mauney, Brown and 'Yonce playing outstanding football. By the Clemson game the team should be functioning smoothly.

Wayward rushed out with a medal for South Carolina the day after they beat Duke (a week ago). And to prove the astuteness of the local chapter of forecasters, every man of them promptly picked Tech. Wayward had only one inarticulate companion in pessimism, Robert Alva Clay, the freshman coach, sat in the lee of a fence at Rose Bowl Field Friday afternoon waiting for the Gamecocks to come out for practice and sadly predicted a defeat for the home cause Coach Clay was sp sad he was moldy. One of the surest ways to have a star halfback stopped is to have him billed in advance as the greatest running back of the decade. Earl Clary is a great back and the fact was duly broadcast from Columbia, S. C., by mail, wire and radio. / That settled it. The Yellow Jackets never let him get to the line of scrimmage. The greatest ball carrier of the century can be made to look clubfooted when the line in front of him is being dumped on the seat of its collective pants and he is being hit by a convention of enemy halfbacks and ends. ' ADVANTAGE L. S. U. Coach W. A. Alexander, of Georgia Tech, in one of his syndicated-articles * predicts that Louisiana State will defeat Carolina. The Bengals will certainly have a big advantage in playing on their own gridiron and, too, it will be the second night fray of the season for the home hoys while the Birds will be performing under the flood lights for the first time. BLOUNT, THE BLOCKER Miles Blount, Carolina captain and fullback, is majoring in tackling and blocking and minoring in ball carrying this year. In two games, Blount has run with the ball exactly nd times, but has confined his duties to backing up the line and doing some effective blocking, two of the less spectacular phases of football that don't come in for as much recognition as ball lugging but without which ball toters would-be much less effective.

Tigers Are Heavy Team Many Veterans Back Carolina Second String M^y Start Against Bengals Saturday At Baton Rouge By ALAN SCHAFER The Carolina Gamecock squad, 29 strong arrived in Baton Rouge this afternoon and took a light workout later under the lights. They are primed for tomorrow's important contest with the Bengals of L. S. U. and the prospect of an entirely different \team against the Bengals seemed highly probable. t A shake-up in the line is certain and there will be one or two shifts in the backfield. Joe Shinn, 208 pound center, though out with a bad knee made the trip to the Louisiana city and may get into the game. Chuck Hajek is slated to start center while Nolan Raby will go?to end in his place. Due to Raby's excellent showing in the Tech game he promises to land a regular berth. The_ second string men due to start are: Wolfe, quarter; Hicks and Robbins, halves and Barrentine, fullback; Morehead and Fortson, guards; Hajek^ center; Johnson and McManus, tackles; Raby and Correll, ends. If the team gets in danger, a complete new first string team will be available for relief duty. The entir/ first string accompanied these starting men as well as the two coaches, Laval and Hanley, and McCarrell, manager; Sullivan, trainer and Dr. Foster. I L. S. U. has the heaviest team ih its history and has 21 letter men back for service. * Among these, there stand out Tom Smith and Joel Pressbury, two of Coach Russ Cohen's most dangerous men and Sidney Bowman, the race-horse back who ran ninety yards last year against Carolina for the lone L. S. U. tally of the day, Carolina top- > ping a 7-6 score. These men were kept out of the Spring Hill game Saturday to save them for tomorrow's contest. The Tigers beat Spring Hill 35-0, although they lost to the strong Texas Christian eleven the opening week by a field goal 3-0. U. 8. C.

Mr. Crawford, the physical director of the University, has purchased new equipment for the gymnasium to add to the variety of exercises available for the use of the students. The afternoon class of boys lias been the largest in the history of the . University. It is so large that it has beeij necessary to make a new class for the Monday, Wednesday, and Friday section. Mr. Crawford has Jimmy Brailsford helping him in the office, and Red Watts the handling of the equipment. U. 8. O. President L. T. Baker, at the con- * elusion of the fraternity head's address, urged the new men to put their whole-hearted efforts behind the move to keep this tradition at the University.
