Eight Win In
Mitt Tilts
Sixteen Reach Finals Of Best Intramural
Boxing Tourney
Held At Carolina
Eight men were crowned Intramural
champs in their various classes last
week as the finals in the boxing tournament
were held last week in the
field house. The tourney, one of the
most successful in many years, was
held under the direction of Frankie
DeMars, varsity boxing coach.
Hilton provided the fireworks of the
evening by knocking out Brissej' early
in the first round in the 149 class. The
other bouts of the evening gave the
spectators plenty of action for their
money as every bout proved to be a
slugging affair.
In the 110 pound class Rogers came
through to win a decision over McNair.
Amato uncorked a fast attack to take
the decision in the 120 pound class
over Carnes. Both men were fast and
shifty and the margin of victory was
close.
Jones in the 130 class took the measure
of Caughn, while the 149 pound
class saw Hilton defeating Brissey via
the knockout route. John Zcigler and
Fernandez staged a slugfest and Zeigler
by his whirlwind attack in the final
round won the decision.
Turner and Shack McCrady fought
toe to toe through three rounds of an
exciting middle weight battle, but
Turner won the decision in the closest
fight of the evening. Messervy and J.
E. Williams scrapped through three
hard fought rounds in the light heavy
division with the decision going to
Messervy, The heavyweight battle
found Bob Johnson taking the measure
of John Rowland by a judges' decision.

Grayson Wolfe, star pitchcr on the
Gamecock hurling staff will finish his
college baseball career here next week
against either Furman or Clcmson.
Wolfe has won 5 games, and has lost
one 3 to 2 contest to Erskinc at the
first of the season. Two of these wins
were shutouts, heating Krskine, 5 to 0
the sesond time he met them on Monday,
beating P. C., 9 to 0. He has sent
.'15 batters down the strike-out lane in
44 innings. He has allowed but 24 hits
in those innings and only 9 runs have
been scored from him. Grayson is expected
to sign a contract with the Columbia
Sandlappers of the l'iedmont
League as soon as the college season
is over. Coach Billy Laval is manager
of the newly organized aggregation.
Bill Outzs, last year's captain of the
Gamecock squad and leading pitchcr,
who has pitched 3 exhibition games for
the Gamecocks this season has signed
a contract from the Sandlappers.
Country Kneece, sophomore, has
won 3 and lost 2. Both of his losses
were to outsiders from the league.
Tom Craig, track star sensation, has
scored 90 points in four track meets
this season, an average of 24 points

Last Year'
With the Palmetto League championship
again in the offing, Carolina's
diamond boys face the Wofford Terriers,
runner-ups in race, this afternoon
at Spartanburg. The home squad
left in the morning for the Hub-city
and will go from there to Greenville to
engage the Furman aggregation tomorrow
afternoon.
Copping seven straight victories in
a row, the local nine has risen rapidly
to first place in the race for titular
honors in the Palmetto League.
The games this week-end preface
Netmen Win
Two Matches
The University of South Carolina
tennis team swamped the College of
Charleston and Wofford netmen 8 to
1 and G to 1 respectively in two recent
meets.
The sole victory for the Charlestonians
came when Mitchell Johnson
and Tommy Ravenal teamed up to win
a close doubles tilt from Wesley Walker
and Jack Crawford G-4, 5-7, and G-4.
The lone Methodist victory came
when Hank Gooding fell before Price,
G-2, 6-1. Carolina swept the? other
four singles matches and the two sets
of doubles.
Captain Dave Ellison won all his
singles and was co-winner in all
doubles he played, in both matches.
Carolina's tennis team will face Clemson
and Furman away and at home in
the near future as the feature games
remaining on the Carolina program.
The last two matches arc the first
that found the Carolina outfit up to
its best strength. Vast improvement
in form was shown. The numerous
spectators that attended the matches
were well rewarded as the Garnet and
Black netmen exhibited the best of
form to win their matches.

Gamecock Swordsmen
Close Current Season
Battling with foils, epec and saber,
the Yellowjackets of Georgia Tech defeated
the Carolina fencing team recently
by a score of 11 to G. Tech won
the foils contest 6-3, the epec 3-1, while
the saber contcst resulted in a 3-3 tie.
Last Saturday the fencing team
closed its season with a brilliant 6 to
3 victory over the College of Charleston
foil men in the City by the Sea.
In a special freshman tilt Bernian
defeated Maschell of Charleston 5 to
0. Valentine, Richardson and Willis
made up the Gamecock fencing team.
Fencing, a comparative newcomer
to the athletic calendar of the University
has gained its place on the University
sport list. Due to the hard
work of Valentine and Richards, the
fencers competed in several matches
this season under most trying conditions.
The Rollins match proved to be the
highlight of the season and the Gamecocks
did not match steel against a
more worthy opponent all the season
than they did against the Rollins fencers,
pick of the Southeast.
Prospects for next year's fencing
team look fairly bright despite the loss
of Valentine and Captain Richardson
who will not compete on the Gamecock
outfit next year, as they will be lost to
the team by graduation.

Baseball Sidelights
Seven intra-slate baseball victories (
in a row. That is Carolina's record '
upon which she intends to cop the 1
Palmetto League championship title 1
again this year.
The wins arc: 9 to 0 over Presbyterian,
11 to 3 over Newberry, 5 to 0 j
over Erskine (the only collcge team in j
the state to defeat the locals this
season), 15 to 1 over Wofford, 8 to C '
over Newberry, 8 to 1 over Clemson,
and 14 to 2 over Presbyterian.
Pitching excellently, Grayson Wolf
held P. C. hitters to three base hits, *
while the locals jumped on the slowcurve
artist, Wyatt, for 13 knocks. In ''
a earlier game this season Bud Alexander's
homer featured Carolina's outhitting
P. C. 0 to 11. I
Led by John Munn, with two triples 1
and a single, the home roster out hit <
the Indians '.) to 10 to reach the top 1
rung in the state race. Boozer (New- !
berry) belted a homer. Later Kncecc !
held the Indians to 8 safeties while ;
his mates reached for 14. i
Yonce clouted a triple in the Erskine '
tilt.... Kncccc's stellar pitching con- 1
tributed greatly to the score Carolina
piled up against Wofford. He was
relieved by Brown, who twisted the ,
sphere surprisingly well, Wofford used
four twirlcrs Wolf's two-hit pitch- ;
ing and his mates 12 hit batting against
Clemson, put Carolina in second place.

Cock-Tales I
By Elmore Martin
Good Intramural Boxing
Coach Frankie DeMars was well
leased with his late campus boxing
srogram, and is looking forward to a
splendid varsity team next year composed
mainly of these men...."It was
:he best set of boxers to participate in
he intramurals since I have been at
Carolina," Frankie avers.
Prospective Varsity Material
McNair, Rogers, Carnes, Vaughn,
Hilton, Zeigler, Bostain, Chaffin, Ferlandez
Turner, McCrady, Farnuin,
Welborn, Taylor and Johnson all
showed promise according, to the
:oach, and all should report for prac:ice
during the spring training sessions
ind in the fall when the boxers again
eport. Lack of reserves has always
lindered the Carolina team in boxing.
i\fter the first string is picked the
others drop out and do not wait for an
opportunity to show their wares. With
only three regulars back next year,
:hcre will be plenty of opportunity for
:he newcomer on the boxing squad.
Lack of Equipment
Spring workouts of the boxing team
las been sadly hampered because of
ack of equipment. There is a obvious
leglect of the boxing team which has
lone much to swell the athletic coffers
luring the past few years. Track and
baseball, both non-paying sports receive
their share of equipment, so why
lot boxing which pays well and is selfsupporting?
"One Man Track Team"
The one man team is quite wellknown
around Carolina. By this phrase
ivc do not mean that Tom Craig is
Carolina's track team, it simply means
that if he didn't belong to Carolina's
squad he would still be a team by himself.
Tom could make only 20 points
ugainst Clcmson a week after racking
up 30 against Wofford. But the big
l>oy has promised to do better than
that at the state meet next week-end.
Look out all you hurdlers and shot
putters, and you who throw the discus
and the javelin, and you high jumpers!
And don't you broad jumpers
and pole vaulters feel too secure cither.

Craig And Hutt To Lead Team In
Quest Of Titular Honors In
Clinton Meet
Having split even in four duel meets,
the Carolina trackstcrs are working
hard in preparation f6r their assault
on the state title, May 4 and 5 at
Clinton.
Despite their losses to P. C. and
Clemson in duel meets, the Gamecocks
will enter the state meet with good
I chances of victory in what should be
the closest meet of recent years.
With Hutt and Mauney in the dashes,
Bchling,. and Hubbard in the 440,
McLaughlin, Cook, and Turner in the
half mile, Cardwcll and Scase in the
mile, and Sweeney in the two mile,
Carolina presents her strongest array
of runners in several seasons. Wolfe,
Sallenger and Martin have been lost to
the team, the first two with mumps and
the latter with an appendicitis attack.
In the hurdles Craig, Petit, and
Hemphill will uphold the Garnet and
Black, while Craig and Taylor will
furnish most of the weight strength.
Clemson and P. C. stand out as
Carolina's leading opposition, but
though both defeated the Roosters
during the regular season, Carolina is
strong in first places, which means in
a meet where several teams are entered.
Newberry promises to take some
of the Clemson points, and Furman
and Wofford may do likewise.
Lynn will be favored to cop the
dashes, but Hutt will give him hot
competition, especially in the century.
Cardwell and Sease arc the leading
milers of the state, and McLaughlin
will offer plenty of trouble in the 880.
Cook and Turner also will make strong
bids in the latter race. Petit, Craig and
Hemphill all have excellent chances
of places in the hurdles, with Petit a
possible winner in the highs and Craig
in the lows.
Tom Craig is almost a cinch to set
a new record in the shot, and his high
jumping should approach the G feet
3 inch standard set by Bostick in 1931.
Tom will be a leading contendant in
the discus and the javelin as well.
Farnum and Moore will come in for
consideration in the pole vault, and
Hutt may place in the broad jump.
J aylor is a prospective point winner in
the javelin and discus. The relay team
has not yet been picked, but this event
will be very important in such a close
meet as is expected.
