Cagers _ Birds Fac In Finc Kitchell Out With Flu Bill Simpson Or Jack Lyon Will Probably Substitute For Bird Forward Virginia Military Institute will meet Carolina at 8:00 o'clock tomorrow night in the University Field House in the last basketball game of the season. This contest will decide Carolina's final place in the Southern Conference race. It will have no effect on the bids to the conference tournament, as invitations will be sent out before the game is played. If the conference officials consider the Carolina team better than V. P. I., the Gamecocks will go to the tournament. While V. P. I. has won only one game out of ten, the Birds have lost several of their important games by only small margins. The contest with North Carolina last year's champions, ended up 43-40; the game with Clemson, state-title holders, came out 31-30. V. P. I. has defeated only the Virginia Cadets. The Gamecocks will enter this game without the services of Reddy Mitchell, stellar forward who has been out for the past week with the flu. Bill Simpson, who helped stem the tide against Furman, or Jack Lyon will take his place. Goody Taylor, Guy Lipscomb, and Bernard James will complete the line-up. This game will be the first meeting of the two schools since the Cavalier grid sters lost to the Gamecocks 22-6 in the dedication of the new Carolina stadium. -U. S. 0.

Captain Nut Taylor, Frank Jenkins, Rex Williams, and Rhea Haskell are the Carolina representatives. All except Captain Taylor who advanced as far as the semi-finals fast year, will receive their baptism of fire in tournament competition today. Captain Taylor, fighting in the 115 lb. class, .was out much of the season with a broken nose. He is undefeated this season with a record of two victories and one draw. Jenkins, a sophomore, is state champion in his weight. Jenkins is undefeated in two years of competition (on the fresh man and varsity team). He fought Diehl of N. C., conference champion to a draw. Jenkins is one of the favorites to win the 125 lb. crown. Rex Williams, also a soph, is state middleweight champion. Williams lost his first fight to W. Mann, conference cham pion from Duke, and Rex has been un defeated ever since. He will be out for revenge at Charlottesville. Rhea Haskell, a senior, came out in midseason and filled a vacant spot at light heavyweight. Haskell lost to Kissam of Clemson and to Costello of Citadel ,but has shown so much improvement that Coach DeMars decided to enter him in the tournament. All Rhea wants is another crack at Kissam. The team was greatly weakened by the loss of Harry Hilton in the tournament due to the flu. However, Carolina has sent up four potential champions and some of them, if only one, ought to come through. John Haskell, varsity welterweight, also will not fight though he will make the trip for experience. Other varsity men not fighting in the tournament are Sam Cartledge and Gilbert Colina, light weighq, Jim Ackerman, junior middle weight, and Mackey Mills, heavyweight. -U. U. 0. past year.
