Coach M Forty Five Answer Call For Practice Twelve Seniors Are On Squad Spring Season Starts With Light Practice Composed mainly of juniors and rein forced by 20 sophomores, the 1937 foot ball squad began spring football practice Monday with 45 men reporting. Coach Don McCallister started the men off with warming up exercises and con tinued this with light scrimmage on the second day of practice. Six former seniors will be lost to the squad this year. They are Captain Bob Johnson, end, Alt. Capt. Paul Gaffney, all state guard, Paul Robelot, tackle, Fritz Turner, guard, Curry Farnham, halfback, and Porcher Hopkins, halfback. Twelve candidates will be playing their last for Carolina when the call for men goes out this fall. These are led by Capt. Jack Lyon, halfback, Alt. Capt. Hasel Murray, tackle, Larry Craig, end, and Pat Tobias, guard. Others are Rex Vil liams, Ossie Bramlett, Frank Polatty, Robert Stillwell, Ed Stillwell, Roy John- e son, Don Tomlin, Bill Brown, and Lewis Tabor. t Competing for the end positions, Coach McCallister has Chief Myers, Frank Ur ban, and Larry Craig as the outstanding t veterans. Urban was a regular flankman last year, and Myers and Craig alter nated with him and Capt. Bob Johnson at their posts. At tackle the Gamecocks will not lack for weight. Jack Dorflinger, Pop Howell, 1 and Frank Martins, the main contenders, I all tip the scales at over 200 pounds. Howell was unable to play during all of the past season because of a broken leg and a wrenched shoulder kept Dorflinger from entering the Miami game, but these are expected to be ready for action this fall. Vincent Kelly, George Makovic, James Reynolds, and Frank Makovic are the standouts for the guard positions. Kelly was a regular varsity man last year, while Reynolds and Frank Makovic are coming up from last year's freshman squad. George Mkwic is a jsaw a great deal of service last fall. In the pivot position, Carolina will be well fortitied with Frank Kiss and John Burns as the veterans who took care of 1 this place last year. Harold I tartel, a sophomore, will also add strength to the team. Ralph Dearth, Lit Durham, and Lynn Kalmbach are the veterans who will be out for the signal calling position. Be sides these, Gene Robinson and Tommy Lonchar, two of last year's frosh quarter backs, are also to be counted on for ac tion this fall. I lal fback candidates include Jack Lyon, Ed Clary, Joe \Villiams, Art Urbanyi, Jerry Illughes, and Van Edwards, vet erans, and Little, Stroud, Snider, and Rampey from the freshman squad. Coach McCallister can choose his fullback from a list including Pinhead H inson, Big Dur hamn, and Lewis Tabor.

Invited out are the returning letter- o nen, the members of the 1936 freshman cam, and anyone at all interested in this port. Assistant Coach Gilbert Bristow, who r n the past few years has produced so naniy title wianning teams at Columbia t< nugh school, has been taking active charge >f these pre-season practices, as head :oach Pauly is kept busy by spring foot >all practice.

Condition will be . he thing most stressed in this frst series if workouts. The running is to be done n soft shoes. The freshmen team of 1936 is giving ome good material to the varsity. Dick t .ittle is a prize in the (lashes and in the - iroad jump. Johnny Campbell, although andicapped by an almost healed broken Lrm, can still take a hurdle. Cormack's pecialties are the middle distances. Quite a few new boys have reported nd more are expected by the end of the veck. ] Schools Will Play Here Leading high school basketball teams rom all over the state will be the guests c >f the University on February 25, 26, and ' 7, when the annual tournaments for ti lass A, 13, and C championships will be teld in the Field I louse.0 For the past several years these tourna- t nents have been successfully held under he sponsorship of the University, and his year a larger number of entries than Bl ver before is expected.
