TIES . . . HAND Dr. Reed Smit Through Only Undertook Position Without Salary By Deward Brittain Hearken to those long gone days when mama wore a bus tie, sister a hoop skirt, and gridiron heroes played for the glory of alma mater. Sach were the times when Dr. Reed Smith coached the University of South Carolina Gamecocks through their only undefeated season. It all happened in 1907. South Carolina had been without a foot ball team for four years, ever since the big Clemson fracas when the board of trustees placed a taboo on inter-collegiate football for Carolina. A track meet or a debate furnished the campus excitement then. Immediately after school opened in the fall of 1907, Robert Gonzales, Heyward Gibbes, and Alva Lump kin circulated a petition asking the board to restore football to the Uni versity. At the instigation of this earnest supplication, the board of trustees met in special session early in October. It was a dismal autumn afternoon that the entire student body gathered outside the library to await the de cision. The board deliberated the issue the entire afternoon. But as dusk descended upon the campus, President Sloan stepped wearily from the council room and announced the request had been granted. Once again the Carolina Gamecocks c-tuld crow for alma mater on the grid iron! The chapel hell was rung all night after the board had ren dered their verdict. But the situation was still bad. The trustees did not make any fi nancial allocation for the team. To men like Robert Gonzales and Alva Lumpkin this was a minor issue. Knowing that Dr. Reed Smith had just returned from Alabama Presby terian College where he had assisted with the coaching, the players of fered him the mentor's job with no compensation. The amiable profes sor accepted; if the boys could play for the love of the sport then he could too. Shortly after the State Fair of Eager For Love! Adventurers, Reckless Men In Paradise! . .

Equipment was scarce but the team sufficed on what they had. Work ing the boys hard and giving them practice in the forward pass, which had only been introduced the previ ous year, Coach Smith built up one of the best squads in Carolina's grid iron history. Three games were scheduled. The initial contest with the College of Charleston ended 14-4 in Carolina's favor. In these times when gridiron heroes wore handlebar mustaches scores were counted differently from the present system. The touchdown counted five points while a field goal was good for four. It was against this first foe that the first edition of the Gamecocks made their only touch down of the season; all other scores were field goals booted between the uprights by the educated toe of I ley ward Gibbes.

An old opponent, the Citadel, was trounced in the last game of the sea son. The Citadel couldn't find a de fense for Carolina's forward pass and Heyward Gibbes kicked three times from the 30 yard line to give the Birds a 12-0 victory over the Cadets from the City by the Sea. An old timer who recalls these early football days with fond mem ories says that Carolina's first grid iron campaign was compared to Sher man's famous march to the sea. The Gamecocks showed opponents no mercy. thinking only of alria mater who for three years had been barred from the gridiron wars. After this initial season Doctor Smith found that coaching required too much time off from his ever in creasing faculty duties and reluc tantly turned the job over to- Doug las McKay the next year. This truly was a great season when the coach as well as his team played because they loved the game. Many of the boys who carried Carolina's honors that year are now renowned in their respective fields. Robert Gonzales, the stonewall cen ter, founded The Gamecock the next year, 1908. Later lie became nation ally known for his "paragraphs" in The State, of which he was editor. Heyward Gibbes, the fleet-foot run ner who kicked when Carolina put the ball on the opponent's forty, is now a well known physician in Co lumbia. ihe Honorable Alva M. Lumpkin, now serving on the Federal bench. was the hard working manager of the squad. lie often helped pay for equipmiint. "Buck" Perrin, who is now practicing law in Spartanburg, was the captain of the team. Other men who wore the Garnet and Black through Coach Smith's regime were: V. A. Parrott, Ran dolph Murdaugh, Irvine Belser, Jack Reeves, Theodore Croft, Chalmers Wessinger, G. C. Cartwright. Clint Graydon, R. Cooper, Jim Crouch, and- If. W. Hughes.
