Carolina Pugs N.C.S.I11 ] Wolf Stars In First Gamecocks Pound State To Gain Close Victory. Second Win Of Season In eight thrill-packed matches Carolina finally nosed out a 4 1-2 to 3 1-2 victory over the N. C. State fighters in the field house Saturday night, Grayson Wolf clinching the match by withstanding a first round beating and then coming back to earn a draw in an evcitiug slugging bout, to give the Gamecocks a two point lead with only one fight remaining. The Roosters got off to a good lead by winning three straight fights after the Wolf pack had taken the opener, but then Fabri battled out a decision over Nathans to put his team back in tlie running. This chance was short-lived however as Henry Willard beat Fletcher to assure Carolina of at least a tic, and in the next clash Wolf got the neccssary margin of victory. Taylor put up a fine scrap in the opening fight but Bilisoly, N. C. veteran, managed to win by a slight margin. Andy Mill tied it all lip by winning a clear-cut vote over Beddocs, who had advantages of height and reach. Hill showed good boxing form all the way through and was trying for a knockout at the final bell. . Captain Rivers shoved Carolina into a 2-1 lead by eking out a close triumph over Peacock. The bout was fast and plenty of fighting was presenting to the fans. Humphlett then increased the Gamecock margin to 3-1 by outboxing Garner, Southern Conference champ of 1932. The S. C. pug won by using his greater reach to advantage. In the next fight Nathans was unable to match his opponent, Fabri, and N. C. State marked up another point. Willard and Fletcher staged a good battle for three rounds, both men showing skill but Willard having the edge in hard punching. With only a weeks training Wolf entered his first intercollegiate battle and drew with Redding. The Stater knocked Wolf down in the first round and looked like a certain winner but the Gamecock returned in the second and promptly floored his opponent with a terrific right. For the remainder of the round Redding warded off a K. O. This & was 3 from start to finish. In the final, Brown proved ^unable to cope with his heavier foe and after cj several knockdowns his seconds threw cj in the towel, co ? ? o. | Greeks Have -> Best Average o to Scholarship ratings of fraternity men *? at the University of South Carolina are higher than those of non-fraternity, according to a survey just completed by the National Interfraternity Conference, an organization composed of 69 leading Greek-letter societies in the United States. The ratings at South Carolina' for fraternity men are higher than the allmen's marks, the study shows. The Southern group had only school with higher averages for unaffiliated men. Not only does the scholastic average of the fraternity man rank higher than the non-fraternity in a majority of the 156 colleges studied, but the rating is higher than the all-men's average, which includes both, unaffiliated and Greek-letter students. The groupc average of 59 per cent of the fraternities exceeds the all-men's average on respective campuses.. The total undergraduate enrolment of the institutions in the report numbers approximately 250,000, of whom nearly 70,000 are members of the 2104 chapter groups of the Greek-letter organizations in the Interfraternity Conference. Outstanding among the facts revealed by the 1933 survey is that all-men's averages have risen in 79 per cent of the institutions of the country, denoting an increasing amount of attention to acadcniic objectives on the part of undergraduate men. XT. I. C. Loss Of Heavyweights Dims Hopes Of Victory With the probable loss of Wolf, Carolina's boxing team goes to Clinton tomorrow with prospects for a victory over P. C. considerably dimmed. A severe eye injury received in the fights last week is expected to keep Wolf out, and since Brown is not expected to enter the heavyweight bout, P. C. will thus win the two heavier weights by forfeit. Taylor will represent Carolina in the 118 pound class as a result of his win over Hollis ity their fight, this week, for a place on the team. Griffith will return to the lineup in the junior middleweight division due to his decision over Nathans. Hill, Rivers, Humphlett, and Willard will represent the Gamecocks in their usual weights. /V ( \ 4 / ...i- y.:i ' Defeat Exciting Bout Turkey Escapes Startled Huntej Sullivan Foiled Agai: Junior At Carolina Falls Down ] His Big Moment And Gobbler Disappears By Miles Elliott I'ar down in the woods along the edf of the Congaree River a Carolina junio Mark Sullivan, sat and listened wi1 bated breath to the distant gobble of th most prized of South Carolina birdswild turkey. It is very seldom 0 that any but tl most expert and experienced of huntc hears that thrilling call, but today scenn to be Mark's lucky number, and as tl gobbling grew nearer he drew a pile ( brush over himself and waited paticntl Having learned to use a turkey call his youth Mark knew there would 1 very little trouble in calling the proi gobbler right up to his blind, and 1 could even picture himself throwing hi nonchalantly down on the back port and telling the cook to fix him up. But, as the simple Burns aptly sai 'the best laid plans of mice and mt gang aft away.' The more Mark calh the nearer the turkey came, but as is tl custom with those provoking creature the gobbler stopped gobbling when 1 came within a quarter of a mile of tl impatient hunter. And so it happened that just as Mat had decided his prize had gone, the ol gobbler walked from behind a tree witl in thirty steps of him. They saw eac other at the same time, but the turkc was first to regain his senses. In fac according to Mark, the turkey saw hit and left all in one motion. Anyway bi fore his gun could be hastily thrown \ his shoulder Mark swears that the gol bier was a good mile straight up in tl air. Well, better luck next time, and ; for you turkeys... .beware of that tal dreamy Sullivan, because the next tin he might be wide awake, or at least n< dreaming. D. H. C.

The Signa Nu eleven are primed to give the rhallengers a hard scrape for the titular lonors and the game on Monday promses to he one of the hardest fought >f the intra-mural season. In the preChristmas contests the Sigma Nus showed plenty of power and deception ind all indications point to a thrilling :ontest on Monday. An all intra-mural eleven will be chosen shortly after the season is over by Jack Crawford, director of Physical Education, ?h<> sports staff of The Gamecock, and by the three men who officiated at the football games during the intra-mural season. This past season brought many players of promise to the front and the task of choosing the men for this honor will be a difficult one. All the games thus far this season have held a fair portion of thrills for the spectators. Monday's game will be no exception to the rule and a large crowd of football fans will be on hand to witness this encounter. With Monday's game the football season will be wound up. However, according to Jack Crawford, physical education director, the intra-mural basketball season will open shortly. v. b. c.
