Footballers. Scrim1mage Tomorrow Squad In Go;d Condition At End Of Fourth Week The 1939 gridiron hopefulp of the University of South Carolina twill dis play their wares in a scrimmage to morrow afternoon on Melton field. The scrimmage will mark the close of the fourth week of spring football practice. After a two day rest granted by jupiter pluvius, the three score of Carolina's football warriers resumed practice Wednesday afternoon with a strenuous workout and a light scrimmage. Despite the rain, Head Coach Rex Enright did not let the weather keep him from his duties, as the entire squad went through two thorough skull practices, "something the sophomores needed and the vet erans can use", Enright said. Gridders In Shape In commenting on the condition of the team, the coach stated that the gridders were in fairly good con dition and that he believed they were making a great deal of progress. He also pointed out that the down field blocking is not what he would like to have, and that much of the remainder of the spring session will be devoted to that phase of the game. - However, figuratively speaking, all did not seem to be rain in the mentor's life. The coach expressed optimism as to the outlook at the tackle berths in the forward wall. A real fight seems to be developing for the two positions with Granoff, Biggs, Ap plegate, Krivonik, and Long battling it out. Enright said he was especially pleased with the way Leonard Long, a reserve for two years, is coming through. Stroud Best Punter As to the punting role, Co-captain Heber Stroud and Gene Robinson ap ear to be the best so far; however, the other Co-captain, J. B. Henson, is being given some attention and he may develop into a very effective punter. In practice Wednesday Henson got off several kicks for over sixty yards. Meanwhile, the coaches are making an effort to bring the spring practice to a close. There were scrimmages every day this week, topped by a long scrimmage on Melton field Saturday afternoon.. Enright said that the rain had per mitted most of the injuries to heal but that a knee operation would prob ably be necessary for Hoxit, a full back from the freshman squad who has been drafted into quarterback. Hopes For Sophs Before the session is closed in about three weeks, he hopes to have the sophomores familiar with the in tricacies of the Notre Dame (Rockne) system. Last fall was the first time a Carolina team had used that system ind the coach expects to improve the timing of the plays be fore putting away the pigskins till fall. The Gamecocks have been practic ing for four wveeks and will probdbly practice two or three more. Enright has as his assistants Ted Twvomey, line coach ; "Cat fish" Smith, end coach; Sterling Dupree, backfield coach; and Ted Petoskey, freshman coach. -McCrady And Continued From Page Five others mentioned were Co-captain Lou Carleo, Jack Dorflinger and Heyward Belser. Lou Carleo ran into a streak of bad luck in the draw when lie picked the wily Alperstein of Maryland for his first opponent but he put up one of the best fights of his career. The su perior experience of the national champion gave him a slight advan tage over Carleo and Alperstein won the fight. "Two of the left jabs that Carleo threw in my face during the first round were the hardest I have ever felt," Maryland champion exclaimed as lie left the ring. Heyward Belser, Carolina middle weight who had just recovered from a stomach ailment, was defeated in the next-to-the-last round by the champion, Newt Cox, in probably the closest bout of the tourney. Many visiting pressmen at the press table awarded the fight t6 .Be,lser. but .the judges failed to follow suit. Cox, went on to win the conference title, was probably given the nod because of his previous experience. Jack Dorflinger subbed for the in fluenza strickeii Dick Baxter in the heavyweight class and lack of ade quate training put him out at the hands of Jim Gaugler, who went on to win in the poorest weight of the fights. All Carolina fighters lost to men who finally wvent on to take the crown in their weights. Jimmy Harrelson, Carolina bantamweight was put out in the opening reund by Billy Win stead, North Carolina champ in that weight. Following is a summary of the final ofights: 120 Pounds: Winstead (N.

Solution Easy Asserts Smith Defy Rules; Use 6 Fielders And No Pitchers Coach Vernon "Catfish" Smith, who. guides the horsehide destiny at the University of South Carolina, stood out on Melton field the other day and watched the ground-keep ers build a mound in the baseball diamond. "It looks like it's going to be a nice hill for a pitcher to work from," he said. "But what's worrying me is who is going to stay up there nine innings for us this year. If we had either Capers McCravey or Gunner Tabor with us, everything would be all right. "Right now it looks as if we'll have to pin all our hopes on Joe Grugan. Joe's got a good fast ball, and there is no doubt that he will be a great pitcher. But this is on ly his sophomore season, and lie may not be quite good enough to hurl us to another state title." And if Grugan does make good, who else have you r Smith smiled, then said: "I wish you hadn't asked me that. That's been worrying me all along. We've got a couple of boys coming out for pitcher-but that's as far as they'll probably get. But I got a good idea-an idea that would fix everything." And what was this brainstorm? "We ought to change the rules," Smith laughingly said, "so that all teams will use six outfielders-and no pitchers. That would suit me fine." ---,.
