State Indians Play Saturday Excellent Basketball Card Featured Tonight And Saturday Night The Gamecock basketball team will play its second Southern Conference foe tonight when they meet a strong team from North Carolina State College. The N. C. Staters at present arc third in the Southern Conference and will try to mar Carolina's perfect record. The Wolf-pack jumped from ,V1. fifth place to third place after a suc^^^Bfettssful invasion of Virginia and MaryHnd, where they beat Maryland, VirHtiia, and V. M. I. The University of H. C., Duke and N. C. State are conHdered the best bets to win the SouthH*n Conference title. Carolina will Hicet Duke in Columbia but has no ame scheduled with U. N. C. altho hey may meet them in the tourna nent. The Gamecocks are considered Jlomewhat of a dark horse but many dark horse has come through. I Saturday night the Birds will meet Newberry and hope to keep their state record clean. Wofford seems to be the only obstacle in Carolina's path to a State Championship. Dr. Foster has so far been unsuccessful in his efforts to schedule a game with them. But no doubt a game will be arranged to H determine a state champion unless Wofford is beaten by Clemson, which I at present seems to have the best op portunity to do this. V. B.C. I Columbian Made 11 Grid Manager The Athletic advisory committee has announced that J. B. Urquhart, Jr. has been elected football manager for the season of 1933. Urquhart is a junior in the Engineering school and a member of S. A. E. fraternity. He is successor to Jerome Bihari of Columbia. Urquhart is the son of J. B. Urquhart, Sr., a prominent Columbia architect. This position has been held by a student from Columbia for the last five years. u. m. o. Sports Program To Begin Soon The intramural sports program for this spring will be one of the most extensive undertaken by Athletic Director Crawford. The intramural football tournament was much more successful this year than it has been before and plans are materializing to have the intramural basketball tourney start as soon as varsity basketball season is completed. Mr. Crawford also had plans for a soccer tournament but the sport docs not seem to be very popular as very few teams were entered in last year's contest. The interfraternity baseball league will see most of the fraternities with teams entered. East year, lack of equipment was the chief drawback. TOAL'S STUDIO 1435 Main Street Columbia, S. C. I BURNETTS 1 Carolina Seals, Jewelry, I Carolina and Fra One Block Prom Campus Corner Main and Quint * * * hy Cagi Thru The Bird's Eye BY IRWIN KAHN Athletic Director Jack Crawford's intramural football tournament was, on the whole, more successful than last year's. Not only were there more! teams entered in the league but better equipment was used and the interest was greater among the student body,) there being from 300 to 400 spectators present at the semi-final and final games. Sigma Nu, Tenements 28-29, S. A. E. and Sigma Chi were the teams that reached the semi-final. Sigma Nu beat S. A. E. and the tenement team downed Sigma Chi for the right to play in the finals. The final game was a close fought contest, there being no score in the first half. Sigma Nu csme thru in the third and fourth period and scored two touchdowns as a result of passes. Everyone at one time or another has wanted to pick an All-Star team of a league and this is the Gamecock's contribution as the All-Intramural team of 1933: First Team Quarterback?DuPre, Sigma Nu. Halfback?Abbot, 28-29. Halfback?Walker, S. P. E. I* ullback?Woodruff, Sigma Nu. Left end?Schneider, 28-29. Left tackle?Gasque, Sigma Nu. Left guard?Tucker, S. P. E. Center?Rosen, 28-29.

Right end?Knox, Sigma Chi. SPORTSMANSHIP The attitude of the student body at the Kentucky game has caused much' adverse comment from the local scribes. We prefer to think that this is caused by ignorance of a code of sportsman's ethics rather than mere impoliteness. At any rate the booing at the game was extremely unpleasant to those who restrained themselves and also made it difficult for the referee, Blackic Carter. It is hard enough for a referee to keep the game in hand without having to keep the spectators in control. The following is a Code of Sportsmanship for Spectators: 1. I will consider my athletic opponents and officials as my guests and treat them as such. 2. I will cheer both teams as they come on the field of play. 3. I will applaud good plays made by either team. 4. I will not applaud errors. 5. I will not "razz" the players or officials connected with either team. fi. I will consider the officials as the proper authorities to make decisions and will accept these decisions. 7. I will not attempt to disturb any I player or official. 8. I will not stir up any unfriendly rivalry among the fans or players. Let us hope that we will see at least some of these rules observed in the future, especially rules five and seven which have been the most flagrantly violated. c. H. o..

S. U. In Final Contests In their severest test of the season the Carolina boxing squad meet Clemson Saturday night, February 11, and then come home to battle the Louisiana State University Tigers on Monday, February 13, in the field house. To even matters up, however, the Tigers will meet the Navy mittmen at Annapolis on Saturday, 11. In their last match the Gomccocks were defeated by the North Carolina State team 4 1-2 to 3 1-2. Several men were injured in this match, putting the I Carolina team in poor condition for their ambitious program. Rivers, fighting, lightweight, suffered a slight sprain in his wrist, but has sufficiently recovered to fight Saturday night. Barring injuries, he will also meet Henry Glaze, the hard-hitting L. S. U. lightweight who gave Red Watts such a tough fight in the Southern Conference tournament last year. Glaze, one of the best fighters in the South, recently put B. U. Jones of Mississippi State, another well known lightweight, into the cold. Frank Cuthbertson, clever featherweight, suffered an injury to his ear, slightly cauliflowered in practice some time ago. He, also will fight Saturday night, however. Jack Nathans, who fights in the new Southern Conference weight which was added several weeks ago, had an old nose injury aggravated, and it is not known whether he will fight or not. Bill Humphlett, welterweight, also sustained a nose injury, which is still very painful. He will probably fight. Brown, Meadors, who fought at North Carolina State, and Stoddard are reserves in the upper weights. AT. H. o. Carolina Pugs' Down P. C. Carolina won a hard-fought match of seven bouts with Presbyterian College by a 4 to 3 margin in the field house Saturday night, Jan. 21. This was the first meet for both the Birds and the Blue Stockings. The outstanding bout of the evening was between Capt. Henry Willard, Carolina, and Bolick, for P. C., in light-heavyweight. Willard got the decision after three rounds of hard punching from both men. Callahan, Cuthbertson, and Rivers won decisions over their P. C. opponents. McManus, Humphlett, and Geddings lost on points to their Blue Stocking contestants. No knockouts were registered during the evening. State l Befor Una Basketball which will meet the strong N. C.

State Captain Henry Willard of the University decisively out-pointed Fabri of State to win the feature bout of the University?N. C. State boxing meet which State won by the close scorc of 4 1-2 to 3 1-2. The match was held at Raleigh last Saturday night. McManus in the unlimited class and Rivers in the 135 lb. class also won their fights. Nathans fought Hull to a draw in the 175 lb. class. Willard fought a cool elever fight to easily defeat Fabri who had nine victories to his credit. McManus uncovered a terrific jab to win his fight by a good margin. Stevens, his opponent, was "out" on his feet several times in the last two rounds. Rivers and Sauls of State mixed it up but Rivers garnered enough points to win. Nathans of Carolina and Hull of State fought on about even terms for the first round. In the second round Nathans opened a terrific attack that blasted his State opponent entirely out of the ring. The judges decided that Hull got enough points in the third round to even things up and so called the match a draw. After winning the first round Bill Humphlett of Carolina, 155, dropped a close decision to Garner, Southern Conference champ. Garner is captain of the State team. Bill Geddings, bantam-weight, was forced to reduce five pounds just before weighing-in time. This weakened him some and he lost to Bilisoly of State. The fight was very close. Cuthbertson, feather-weight, one of the Carolina aces was out-pointed by Nease in another close bout. Meadows of Carolina was knocked out in the second round by Dunaway in the 145 lb. class. This was the fourth bout for State this year and the second for Carolina. T7. 8. o. Track Practice To Begin Soon Track practice will officially begin the first of next week according to coach A. W. Norman. Several men have already started work and if weather permits the team will be in good shape for the opening meet with P. C. April 1 in Clinton. That's an ideal day to fool the Blue Stockings who claim their banner year is beginning. A few representatives will be sent to the Southern Conference Indoor Meet which takes place in about a month. 1 he only home meets for Carolina will bring Furman and Davidson to Columbia.
