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.

Traeknken Get
Started Early
Carolina track got away to a good
tart last Wednesday as Coach Frank
Pauly issued the call for an early prac
ice. 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.
Coach Pauly states that all reporting
or practice will be furnished sweat suits tli
is long as the supply holds out. The im
>)rtance of this early training period f.
annot be over emphasized. "Come out
very day at four and get to work," he
nys. t
The varsity, strengthened by the fresh- g
nan team of 1936, should be able to win
number of meets this year. s'
Left from last year are lettermen Larry
raig, Goody Taylor, R. E. Penland,
Tletcher Spigner, Jack Lyons, Guy Lip- C
comb, Rufus Morgan, M. Parrott, and b
ilmer Harrill.
The ex-freshmen team furnishes such
lashes as Dick Little, W. B. Cormack,
ohnny Campbell, Earl Durham, Newton
;arland, Jimmy Reynolds, and Bob Shaw.
With the track now in shape and just
he right nip in the weather, nothing ]
cems to be in the way of a good start
n the road to wins. 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. ]

Referring to the ranking of the Game- a

nee, Wm. -l. larth, director of student
a
clivities at tle University, said, "'e a
rill move up to a much higher place this a
ionth. We will have to remain in the -
rst eight to be invited to attend the
onference tournament." n
The Southern Conference tournament it
ill be held in Raleigh on March 4-6.
Inly eight teams from the Conference
,ill be invited to attend the tournament.
f Carolina can maintain her present
:anding, which is seventh, there will be
o question about the invitation.
Carolina has won three and lost three
>nference games, and the game with _
lemson tonight wvill change the standing
f the Birds either for better or for
'orse. If the Gamecocks win, the vic
>ry will hoist the percentage of wvins for
arolina, and put them nearer the top of
ie Conference list.I
By the end of the wveek Conference of

uis organization meeting are invited all i
)ys interested in golf-and things are p
3ing to hum."
In 1936 the University golf team was
inner-up in the race for the state cham
ionship, losing to Furman. The chances
)r copping the title this year are very 1)
ood according to the roster of players y
igible to compete. d
Lettermen returning to competition this

[eyward Fouche, former captain of the n
olumbia high school team.
Qualifying rounds, 36 holes of medal
ay, will be held before the end of Feb
