i Intran Gamecocks Make Tour Win Over P. C., N. 0. State, And Trenton; Lose To Albany, Erskine And Duke Exhibitions of both good and bad baseball have been presented by the current edition of Carolina's baseball team to the fans this season. Taking the tilt from the P. C. Blue Stockings 14 to 2 and dropping one earlier in the season to Erskine 3 to 2, the local diamond boys traveled upstate to engage Clemson yesterday afternoon in the State race. Carolina opened the season against the Albany Senators, professional club, at Barnwell and lost a close contest after a couple extra innings 3 to 2. Bill Outz, ineligible for inter-collegiate games did stellar pitching for the Gamecocks until relieved by "Country" Kneece who performed equally as well. Retaliating, the home product came back to swamp the visiting Athletic Club of Trenton, N. J. 22 to 1. Carolina went on a batting and pitching spree that day to sharpen the expectations of their backers. Coach Laval's two teams, the Columbia Sandlappcrs and Carolina Gamecocks, met in an exhibition game at Dreyfus Field for the first loGal appearance of both teams this year. The professionals were ahead 6 to 5 when the game was rained out mid-way. Dropping the first game of a doubleheader 3 to 2 and the second 14 to 4, Carolina opened her intra-state contests against Duke University on the home lot. "Country" Kneece did some excellent pitching in the first game but the visitors copped runs at will against Fred Hambright and K. K. Outz in the second tilt. Doggedly the Gamecocks went after N. C. State upon the arrival of the Tarheelians and walked off Dreyfus Field the winner 10 to 4. J. J. Kneece couldn't keep the visitors from hitting in the first inning despite the amount of his curve. Grayson Wolfe relieved him in the second stanza and held the Northerners to two hits for the remainder of the game. John Munn gave the fans a thrill when he scored a homer on a long fly inside the fence. U. 8. O. Biddies Lose In Golf, 14-4 Carolina's Biddie golf team met their first defeat of the season on Wednesday when the Columbia High golf team defeated them 14 to 4 on the Ridgewood course. A return match will be played on Saturday afternoon on the Ridgewood Course. Bob Leahy, Crawford White and Ilarlie Sparrow represented the Frosh outfit, represented Columbia High. The Biddies are scheduled to meet Charlotte Iligh and Charleston High in the near future and it is expected that several other games will be carded for them.

In one of the most thrilling basketball , contests of the Intra-mural season the Kappa Sigma quintet met defeat 20 to 18 t at the hands of a fighting Tenement 3 ( five on last Thursday on the Field House court. As a result of their victory the Tenement 3 quint won the Intra-mural championship for the season. The Kappa Sigmas and Tenement 3 i fought their way to the finals from a field } of 24 competing basketball teams. A large crowd attended the contest and thrill after thrill was afforded them as 1 first one team and then another forged ? ahead. [ From the opening minutes of play the outcome was in doubt and it was not until the final moment of play that Tenement 3 staged a rally to come from behind and score the winning field goal. j This seasons' Intra-mural tournament c sponsored by Jack Crawford, director of " physical education, was one of the most 1 successful ever staged at the University as 24 teams and over 300 boys competed ] in the tourney. j Bird-Pitt !

Pitt conquerers of ^ the mighty Notre Dame basketball team <. presented the sweetest passing attack ever seen on the Carolina court. 1 The Pitt players were heard to remark ^ that the Birds defense was only the third t defense that they had met with all season s that forced them to resort to long shots, j I hen there were the ones who bet on the Pitt team. Joy over the Bird's win l was written on their faces, yet a deep J sadness over the flight of their investments grasped their hearts as they wended their way out of the field house. Bennie Tompkins just couldn't seem to make those shots go in.

Craig swept the field events with four first while Hutt breasted the tape ahead of the field in the hundred and 220 and leaped 20 feet, 4 1-2 inches for a first in the broad jump. Other Carolina firsts were made by Farnum and Moore, trying for honors in the pole vault, Sease in the mile run and McLaughlin in the 880 dash.

Williams to determine the lightheavy championship. John Rowland battles Bob Johnson in the heavyweight finals. One knockout and several other exciting bouts marked the opening of the 1934 pugilistic intramural activities. In the first match of the evening W. W. Dunn slipped one through to Marchak's chin and the seconds stopped the battle. Vaughn came back to win a decision from Colina, and Farnum took a close decision from Joe Belott. A1 Brissey beat Fd Chaftin in a welterweight go. Luis Fernandez defeated Harper Wclborn in perhaps the best fight of the night', both men lighting hard but Fernandez showing more skill than his opponent. This was a junior middleweight match. In another bout at the same weight Addison Bostain used his swinging right to telling advantage to earn a clear victory over "Goodie" Taylor. Williams defeated Childs in the lightheavy division for the riglt to meet Messervy in the finals. U. I. o. Davidson Tops . Tennis Team The University of South Carolina varsity tennis team met a crushing defeat at the hands of Davidson on the university courts last Thursday, by a score of 8 to 1.
