his work in the shot, discus, high jump,
and broad jummp. Larry Craig, star
footballer, has also been working on
the shot and has approached the state

Kneece Is Doing Major Share Of
Mound Work For
e Gamecocks
t Completing the first two weeks of
the baseball campaign with two wins
in five starts the 1936 edition of Dutch
Stamman's Gamecocks were ready to
set out in quest of the Palmetto league
flag.
After an opening game with the
Michigan State Spartans was rained
3 out the Birds with Country Kneece on
t the mound out blasted Erskine 3 to 1
in 13 innings. Jim Good led the of
fensive cracking three of Carolina's
five bingles.
The Roosters opened the home sea
son losing to the Rollins Tars 6 to 2.
Kneece was on the mound again. The
second in the Rollins series was rained
out and the teams moved to Winter
- Park, Fla.
On foreign ground the Gamecocks
I won one out of three. Kneece pitched
them to a 7 to 5 win. The Birds scored
all their tallies in the last three in
nings in a fighting finish.
Monday the Tars returned to
t trounce the Birds 12-1. Tabor and Ellis
_ (lid the mound work for Carolina with
Dick Brown catching. The next day,
~ Rollins stood off a late South Carolina
- rally to win 10-7. Mobley was the lead
3 ing hitter for the winners with three
safe blows. Clary and James collected
three singles each for the Gamecocks.
A late start hurt the batters but now
that they are playing more baseball
a the batting is perking up. Vaughn,
3 Clary, Good, and Kneece are leading
the offensive. Catcher Don Tomlin and
_ outfielders James and Kalmback are
playing a good defensive game but are
woefully weak with the bat.
Defensively the boys shape up well
and if the hitting keeps improving they
ought to be in the running for the
league championship.
