Season.
Newberry And Clemaon Tied
For Palmetto League Lead.
Erskine, P. C. And Newberry
Remaining Opponents
Carolina stands firmly anchored in
third place in the Palmetto league race
with the Clemson Tigers and Newberry
holding the first two posts. Failing
to gain more than an even break
against the Tigers in their final clash
with Clemson this week, the Birds remain
where they were pushed by Newberry
two weeks ago. Lack of timely
hitting and unsteady support have
been the secret of the Bird losses.
Six games remain on the Gamecocks'
schedule in the league, two
each with Erskine, P. C., and Newberry.
The team meets Erskine April
28 and 29 at Due West, Presbyterian
May 3 and 4 at Davis field and finishes
the season May 9 and 10 in Newberry
against the league-leading Newberry
team in a series which may decide the
state championship. Two victories
would probably give either team the
flag, unless the Clemson Tigers finish
the remainder of. the season undefeated.
The Birds are fighting uphill to capture
their fourth consecutive otate
title. They have already been t,:minated
from the defense of their Southern
conference title which they held in
1931 jointly with Auburn.

Pi Kaps Beat
Kappa Sigmas
Intramural baseball opened its 1932
season with the Pi Kappa Alphas defeating
the Kappa Sigmas 1G to 11 in
a game featured by the pitching of
Mauney and Martin, and the loose
fielding of both teams.
Fortson and Martin led the P.i Kappas'
hitting, while Pat Patterson and
manager Kent Ewing did the Kappa
Sigmas' slugging.

Birds Remain Undefeated In State
With 3 Victories; Smith
And Lynn Star
By defeating Clemson 72 to 59 Saturday
afternoon, Carolina definitely
established itself as leading contender
for the state track championship.
Furman and Presbyterian college, the
other full teams entered in the state
meet have previously been defeated
by the Gamecocks.
Buck Smith, Carolina hurdler, and
Gordon Lynn, Clemson sprinter, tied
for high scoring honors with 10 points
each.

second of tying the state record in the
high hurdles.
Lynn was not closely pushed in the
dashes and was timed several seconds
slower than in previous meets this
year.
Bryant Adair, in hurling the discus
131 ft. 5 inches, bettered the state
record by a yard. Curran Ilughey
broke his own state record when he
tossed the shot 41 ft. 10 1-2 inches.
These marks do not count officially in
the state records, however.

The track team for the first time in
years shows championship calibre as
it finished its state dual meet schedule
this week tripping Furman 79-52 to remain
undefeated in the state. Coach
A. W. Norman has developed a team
from a mediocre nucleus of last year
to one rated with the best in the south.
Several outstanding men in track
and field events will represent the
Gamecocks in the State meet next Saturday.
Curran Hughey, record holder
in the shot-put; Frank Bostick,
champ in the high jump and a serious
contender for the broad jump title, and
Bryant Adair, who hurled the discus
to an unofficial state record against
Furman, all will be pitted against the
tracksters of P. C., Furman, Clemson,
and Citadel.
The track team may now replace
baseball as the major sports headliner
at Carolina in the spring.
CAROLINA DEFENDS ITS
RACQUET TITLE
The tennis team, led by Captain Elliot
Crum, this week begins its defense
of the state title. The result
of the match with Furman will go a
long way toward determining the '32
title, since there will be no state meet
this year. The team has wins over
Davidson and Wake Forest and two
over Catawba, both matches by 7-0
scores, and lost to the National-championship
N. C. Tarheels and Davidson
on the N. C. trip.
Plans for an intramural boys' tennis
tournament are being made in hopes
of developing material for the '33 varsity.

The Gamecock baseball team journeyed
upstate to the Tiger's lair Tuesday,
and split a double-header with
the Cadets.
Grayson Wolf was credited with his
first loss of the season when the Tigers
hopped on him for nine runs in
the sixth inning of the first game.
Fred Hambright hit his second
homer of the year.
After the Birds unlimbcrcd their big
guns to drive in three runs in the first
inning of the night-cap, Bill Ouzts
turned in one of the best performances
of the year and let the heavy-hitting
Cadets down with four measly hits.
The Ganiccocks rest a day before
going to Due West to play a two game
series with Erskine.

Birds Drop Contest To Strong
Winnsboro Nine SaturdayAfternoon
After losing to the Royal Cords
from Winnsboro Mills Friday, Carolina's
hard-hitting Gamccock's took a
well-played game from the Pacific
mills on Saturday afternoon, to the
tune of 14 to 4.
The Gamecock's had big innings in
the third, when they pushed six runs
across the plate and again in the seventh
when five Birds tallied.
Allie McDougall, played at shortstop,
had a perfect day at the plate.
Out of five trips McDougall was hit
twice by a pitched ball, was walked
once, and gathered two singles.
Myer PoliakofT, Gamecock southpaw,
pitched his first full game this
season and let the mill-men down with
nine well-scattered hits, in addition to
striking out five batters. PoliakofT
will likely see service against Erskine
this week.
