PHONE 816 Be Cleaned We 'lean It" Footk Rig Team Trains For Six Meets Talented Fighters Try For Positions Gamecock boxers under the tute lege of Rex Williams and head coach Frankie DeMars, are wqrking both day and night now in prepata tion for a strenuous ring season which opens with Duke university mittmen in Durham, January 7. Williams, Southern conference middle weight champion at Caro lina last year, is working with the men at night and DeMars is hand ling afternoon drills. The two ses sions are being held to enable box ers to workout who can't attend one or the other. Hard to fill this year will be the places of Frank Jenkins, Rex Wil liams and Gilbert Colina, who grad uated. Good boxers are out for each position however and the situ ation is bright. Showing most promise are the candidates in the 169 pound di vision. They are Heyward Belser, a veteran of intra-mural tournaments, and a slugging newcomer to the fight game, Herbert Bostain. Ac cording to both coaches, Bostain has made the most improvement for an inexperienced fighter that either has ever seen, and he shows promise of a great future. Three men, Bob McCrady, Sol Blatt, and Leslie Teal are fighting for Jenkins' featherweight post and right now it is a toss up between the three. Material for the bantam division is not so plentiful but Coach DeMars can be relied upon to come through with a good man. Other promising new faces in camp are Sammy Price at 149 and MacDonald, 119, a bantamweight. Carolina will be well fortified in the upper brackets this season with the reliable senior welterweight Jerry Hughes, and in the heavy and lightheavy divisions, Dick Baxter and Jim Polattie. If a leg injury heals, 200-pound Jack Dorflinger will light and in that case Baxter will drop down to his natural po sition at 179 pounds. In Columbia, ring interest will center this year in the Southern con ference Tournament to which Caro lina is host and which is to be staged in the local Field House. Following is a list of men who are now training for boxing: J. F. Redwine, Elliot McCants, Bob Mc Crady, Sol Blaft, Allan Legare, Massingill, Sam Price, Bob Clark, Heyward Belser, Harold Cobb, Du bose, Tiller, Bostain, Harroy Lofton, MacDonald, Leslie Teal, Blanks, Harrelson, Polattie, Ben Matthews, Sharpe, Fischer, Beall, Bryan, and Lou Carleo. Birds Lose To Fordhiam Fordham won over Carolina, 13-0, but the Gamecocks crossed Ford ham's stoutly defended goal-line twice in that last period only to have the plays called back by the officials. A third touchdown was nullified early in the p)eriod when Jerry Hughes, Bird fullback, slipped and fell on the Fordhanm 35-yard stripe after he had galloped past every Fordham defender. A crowd of 15,000 saw the referee call back the Carolina scores and the rest of the thrill packed game. The first Fordham score came in the first period on a perfect play which shook Dom Principe, Ford ham back, into the open and paved the way for his 64-yard run. The second developed suddenly in the third period when Mike Kochel, Fordham left guard, scooped up a blocked kick in the Carolina end zone for a score. The Rams were at full strength late in the first period for the first time since the Pittsburgh game. With Eshmont, Principe, Holovak and Krywicki in the backfield and De Fillipo and Hayes in the line they proceeded to cross an enemy goal line for the first time in three weeks.

Approximately 400 studlents will participate. The Gamecock reprints here a clipping describing the football situation at Johns Hopkins university. The fact that nobody in the sports world has ever heard of Johns Hopkins has nothing to do with the question. The story shows what a big thing intramural football can be. BALTIMORE, Nov. 30.-(AP) Johns Hopkins university, which used to count itself lucky to have fifty gridliron aspirants, eliminated the "money angle" from the game two years ago-and now has more than 500 students playing football the intramural variety. Out of a student body of 000, more than half are members of regular teams. Of those who don't play, 100 are ineligible because they play on varsity teams and another 200 are freshmen who are confined to the sidelines through lack of playing space. Dr. G. Wilson Shaffer, athletic director, inaugurated the system in 1934. He reported enthusiasti cally today: "The game is booming at Johns Hopkins like never before. "We haven't dc-emphasized sports-especially football-at all. We just took the money angle away from the games and in con sequence, we have a greater ath letic program than ever before."

Now the varsity eleven-which has just completed its most suc cessful season in 10 years by win ning four games, losing one and tying one'-almost has become a by'-product of the intramural pro gram. Students Attend Kayser Program Approximately 35 Carolina stu dent.s attended the pre-game cele bration of the Carolina-Fordham, football game, held by Kay Kayser during his radio dance program at the Hotel Pennsylvania, in New York City, Friday evening, Novem ber 4. Miss Lodema Gaines, assistant dean of women at the University and former cheer leader, led the group in singing and cheering. Kay ser's band played the Alma Mater and the new pep song written by Mrs. A. S. McSalley. Also present at the celebration were Howard Burns, former Carolina student, now attending Harvard University, and Bill McCallister, who is now a student at Fordham.

Pass A spectacular touchdown pass on the frst play of the game gave the Carolina Gamecocks a 7-0 victory in their season's finatagainst Cath olic university in Washington, Mon dahe game, scheduled last Satur day, had been postponed because workmen were unable to remove ice I from the field of Griffith stadium. 4 Two seniors playing their last game for Carolina figured promi nently in the lone touchdown play. Ed. Clary, halfback, tossed a long aerial to Ben Joe Williams, 152- t pound senior back, who gathered it in directly on the 50 yard marker and scampered to the goal. The play started on the Gamecock 18, where they had taken the kick-off. Minutes later the same diminu tive Williams broke through the 1 Cardinal line and traveled 79 yards to cross the Catholic goal, but the play was called back and Carolina penalized 15 yards for holding. The Catholic Cardinals also made a touchdown which was called back. A pass from Vidnovic to Carrig connected but the ball had touched his teammate, Miller, first, and the play was ruled incomplete. This came in the fourth quarter when the home team was deep in Carolina territory and threatening to score. Catholic led both in first downs and yards gained from rushing, the former seven to six, and the latter 119 yards to 114. However, the Fly ing Cardinals relied on passing for most of this, completing seven out of 18 aerjals attempted. Fourteen seniors made this their last game for Carolina. They are: co-Captains Larry Craig and Pop Howell. Tack Dorflinger. Al RrPt7.
