chairman of the Author.ity.
The program is to be known as
The Civilian Pilot Training Pro
gram and is sponsored by the Civil

SBecause of limited facilities, only

Instead of the ticket plan used
last year, straight board tickets and
punch tickets will be used. Straight

any meal ticket will be redeemed at
full cash value if a student becomes
dissatisfied.
The student who eats most of his

Injuries Plague
Enright's Team,
Arrowsmith Out
Bird Mentor Is Pessimistic
About Game; Says Walker's
Eleven Should Be At Peak
Rated number one on this week's hurt parade, Rex Enright's
gridiron Gmeocks left at noon yesterday bound northward
for Cheraw, Raleigh, Wake Forest and al. point except those
made on a footbaU feld.
Tonight at eight, under floodlights, the second edition of
the Enright Riders initiate a ten game schedule when they
encounter the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest. With little
or no reservation, Enright has predicted that defeat would be
Carolina's share of the spoils tonight.
His squad afflicted with the myriad maladies of the mole
skined athletes, the gloomy Gamecock mentor had this opinion
about the affray:
Enright Gloomy
"Wake Forest should be at its best this season. As sophomores
last season they were spectacular and erratic, but as juniors
now they should have gotten rid of their sophomoric traits.
They'll be steady, and there is no denying that they have plenty
of touchdown talent. They showed their potential strength in
the Elon game last Saturday night.
"When our boys first reported for the pre-season drills, I
had 'some hope of turning back Walker's boys. But as soon
as we began contact work, our boys started to get hurt. And
it seems as if it hasn't stopped yet. Why, some afternoons we
didn't have players to hold a decent scrimmage session," he said.
Insidious injury has done much damage at the fullback and
flank positions, and made itself felt also in the other football
salients.
Injuries Mount
Co-captain J. B. "Pinhead" Henson, who missed a boat to
Africa this summer because of passport difficulty, told report
ers early this fall that he was thinking about some trips to
touchdown territory. But, because of a leg injury, Henson
practiced the useless role of a spectator during many of the
drills. Pinhead is expected, however, to start against the Dea
cons tonight.
DeWitt Arrowsmith, Carolina's jack of all backfield ti gles,
caused upward curves in Enright's countenance with his hec%c
hammering of the forwarc' g'all in the early scrimmages. Then
Enright's facial lines col' ad downward when the 190 pound
junior fullback hobblec *At the field house and, upon exam
ination, it was found he nad chipped art ankle bone.
The medicos predict that Arrowsmith will not be ready for
football action until the Davidson or Clemson encounters.
Other names on the injured list include ends, Gus Hempley
and Fred Snell, center, Red Evatt, and backs, Tom Attaway
and Dick Little. Injured in an automobile accident early this
summer, Little has been waiting for his wounds to heal before
he rejoins the gridiron wars. It is dubious whether Little will
don moleskin regalia for the Gamecocks this fall.
Starting Line-up
The Birds will probably line lip tonight with Gene Alex
ander and John Crews at the ends, Irving Granoff and Joe
Krivonak at the tackles, Joe Hatkevich and Joe Patrone at the
guards, Kenneth Webb at center, Dutch Elston at quarterback,
Rock Stroud and Harvey Blouin at the halfbacks, and Pinhead
Henson at fullback.
Included in this lineup are four sophomores, four juniors,
and three seniors. While Enright has confidence in the ability
of his sophomores, he is still wondering if they will perform
at par during the season's early encounters. With this mind,
the Gamecock coach has again prognosticated a "November
offensive." Last season saw the Gamecocks, in the cool of
November, turn on the heat against Villanova, Duquesne, F~ur
man, and Catholic University.
Sophomores Ihin~e
Bright sophomore stars in the Gamecock ken are quarterbace
Dutch Elston and halfback Harvey Blouin. These lads havi~
what line coach Ted Twomey terms as the mostimpoe u
aasse* in football-agruuivenas. They ruin herd, bloek il
and never give up. It takesahoil h t tOlara
