Places High
In Poll
Tom Hutto, Carolina basketball
captain, this week received one of
the greatest honors ever bestowed
upon a Palmetto athlete, when for
the third consecutive year he was
voted a member of the All-state
basketball team in the poll annual
ly conducted by The Old Gold and
Black, Wofford college weekly
newspaper.
Buck DuPre, Carolina guard was
given honorable mention in the fi
nal results.
Jake Burrows, Citadel forward,
was elected captain of the mythi
cal five by receiving a unanimous
vote of all the sports editors of
the eight weekly college newspapers
of the state, the men who selected
the team. Toby Holt, Citadel for
ward, Banks McFadden, Clemson's
great center, and Trammell, Wof
ford guard, were the others selected
as best in the state.
Hutto was held up the major por
tion of this cage season by injuries
and illness. However, the preced
ing two years saw him blaze a
path of hardwood glory for him
self through enemy defenses with
his uncanny and amazingly accu
rate field shots and his rapid floor
game. The Charleston lad was at
his best two seasons ago when he
played guard on Carolina's cham
pionship outfit of that year.

ing on he has been held up tempo
rarily with his outside work. Other
pitching candidates working out
are: Dick Baxter, the team's only
southpaw, Bob Greenfield, Shag
McCarter, and Richard Frick. Lu
cius Henson, last year's relief hurl
er is expected to report Monday.
Graham Rhoden, sophomore,
formerly a catcher with ability has!
been given a first base mit aAd is
working to fill the shoes of Wolfe.
If Rhoden should come through the
infield problem would be solved,
because three returning lettermen
are back for the other inner spots.
As for the outfield, it will be well
fortified with the return of last
year's trio, and with the addition
of "Pinhead" Henson and Big Dur
ham. Henson played regular cen
terfield in '37 and hopes to break
into the outfield this year.
The catching assignment will go
to John Burns, reliable receiver
from last year. John got off to a
slow start last season, but as the
season progressed he became a fin
ished receiver and will be hard to
oust from regular service behind the
plate. Joe Patrone will be Burns'
understudy.
Those men reporting- Monday
were: Burns, Rhoden, Hymson,
Yonce, Williams, Durham, Brooks,
Greenfield, Zuckerman, Baxter and
Rudisill. Also; Clary, Wolfe, Mc
Carter, Frick and Bass.
The Gamecocks open their regu
lar season with Syracuse, the 27th
of this month.

Cinder Track
A Steeplechase
Says DuPree
By Ed McGrath
Coach Sterling Dupree, Carolina's
cinder path mentor these days when
be's not instructing fullbacks in
touchdown methods is having night
mares in which all of his track
stars are steeplechasers.
Cause for the former Auburn
fullback's mental disturbatce is the
condition of Melton Field's cinder
track, ravaged by the recent heavy
rains and ditch-diggers' shovels.
Long ditches dug between the
third and fourth curves keep the
Gamecock distance men continual
ly breaking stride to leap over ob
structions and avoid pitfalls.
"It's hard to tell whether I'm
coaching cross country or track,"
lamented Dupree as his quarter
mile dash star narrowly missed the
wire backstop.

Arrowsmith Is
All-Arounder
So Says Coach
Plays All Roles
In Backfield;
But Not Long
To the literary world, Arrow
smith is a very moving novel. But
to the University of South Caro
lina gridiron brain trust, Arrow
smith is a very moving backfield
man.
Arrowsmith the gridder, whose
first name is DeWitt, has been
moved from one position to another
in the Gamecock backfield from the
time he donned his first moleskin
here.
As a member of Ted Petoskey's
undefeated freshman eleven of 1937,
Arrowsmith was a fullback. Last
season, with Rex Enright at the
helm for the first time, Arrowsmith
was shifted to the signal-calling
post where he performed ably. But
Old Man Injury rode roughshod
through the right halfbacks, and
Coach 'Enright needed someone to
fill the gap.
So from quarterback to right
halfback went DeWitt, never winc
ing, never complaining; in fact, do
ing a better job at his new post.
Time went on until all the full
backs were relegated to the bench
with injuries. As you probably
have guessed, if you didn't already
know, Arrowsmith went back to
fullback.
DeWitt once had a little ditty he
used to recite to himself when he
ran out of sheep on long nights.
It ran something like this: "When
I'm quarterback I block the end,

when I'm right halfback, I block
the tackle, when I'm fullback . . ."
And so until the next Saturday
when some Gamecock opponent
was really blocked with a capital
B.
If you were to watch the Game
cocks go through their paces in
spring practice, you might spot
Arrowsmith in the fullback post.
In case you're still a bit skepti
cal about DeWitt, listen to head
coach Enright, as he thinks out
