Dive On Bet
Swims Pool In Full
Dress; Wins Two Bucks
"The next event will be Bill
Marano in a full dress plunge."
Joe Kirby, announcing the swim
ming meet between the University
of South Carolina freshmen and
Columbia Bible College, startled the
audience with this announcement.
Marano had been heard to make
the statement that he would jump
in with all his clothes on for a
dollar.
A buck was flashed in his face,
and he prel)ared himself for the
plunge. Someone offered Bill
another dollar if he would swim
across the )ool.
The two frogskins safely put
away, the inimitable Marano (lived
in and swam around. The fifty yard
breast stroke event began, and
Marano joined the swimmers. A
little way from the start, Nfarano
began to swim free-style.
After enjoying a delightful swim,
in full dress, "Wild" Bill left the
natatorium, two bucks richer.

Spring Clean
Student Union Gets
Floor, Walls Painted
Billy Woods, "house-mother" at
the Student Union building at the
University of South Carolina, is
about to begin spring house-clean
ing. Soon the draperies will be on
the way to the cleaners, leaving the
windows at the Student Union bare.
The walls are to be repainted and
rugs will be taken up so that floors
can be refinished.
Mr. Woods is now on the lookout
for something that will take the dirt
off of his white leather chairs in the
lobby; he thinks "saddle soap" is
the only solution.
The next problem is-when the
vainte_rc., diry-cleaners, an d scrub
women are gone, will the students
continue to tear up paper and throw
it on the floor, and drop cigarettes
on the rugs instead of in ash-trays,
and put their dirty feet on the furni
ture-in other words, make them
selves at homev

State Guard For Thre
Reprinted from Charleston News*
and Courier
About eight years ago an am
hitious kid who somewhat re
semibled Jack Dempsey, was
jerking sodas at a local foun
Lain. Today that same kid, still
looking a b)it like the Maiassa
Mauler when he stopped Wil
lard, is just as amiitious as he
was eight years ago and pays
tribute to soda jerking for en
abling hin to reach his present
pinnacle'wherefrom he beholds
ai rosy future.
"Soda jerking gave me the extra
moncy I needed at college," said
Tom Hutto, coach of the Murray
vocational high school basketball
squad.
Tiom grew up in an athletic en
vironment. His older brother,
Benny, was a basketball star at the
College of Charleston, and Ton,
himself, was on the Bennett school
quintet when he was just eight
years old and just in the second
grade. He learned his pivots before
he learned his ABC's.
Coach Hutto, who went to col
lege on an athletic scholarship,
played football, basketball and
baseball at the University of South
Carolina' and was an all-state bas
ketball guard for three consecutive
seasons. Tommy scorc a touch
down against Erskine in his first
start in the Carolina camp, block
ing a punt blehind the Seceders'
goal line.
About ten years ago, Hutto was
a guard on Ernie \Velinian's 110
pound Southern championship Y.
M. C. A. five. In an athletic way,
young Tommy always was kept
quite busy, football in the fall, bas
ketbal in winter and baseball in
summer. Besides playing football,
basketball and baseball at Porter,
lie was a catcher for an American
Legion team here about six years
ago.
"I'ml going to devote my whole
life to athletics," declares Hutto.
"I want to coach football, basket
ball and baseball and teach physi
cal educatini."
Right now, besides coaching the
Murray basketeers, Hutto is super
visor of the new Elizabeth Tiede
man playground here.

"I'm handicapped by a dearth of
material," lie complained, referring
to his job as Murray coach. "But
I like my job. The kids are young,
but they're coming right along."
Mentor Hutto uses a set system,
placing emphasis on defense.
"I believe in stressing defense
more than offense," he said. "If
you can hold a team down, you
d6n'i have io work so hard. You
can put on a couple of minutes of
speed when you've got the ball an(l
you're all right."

proaching the 400 mark as the0
fourth week of the organization's
existence draws to a close. The
aim of the club is to get at least
one thousand nicilibers in Richland
county before spreading out to oth
er counties, Tatuni Gressette, secre
tary-treasurer, said.
Tomorrow atfernoon at 2:45 the
BAM club members will be ad
nitted to the regulation practice
football game on Melton field. The
football squad will be divided into
two units for the contest. Students
will also be able to see the fracas,
the coaching staff announced.
Mr. Gressette plans for a very
aggressive BAM Club program dur
ing the next few weeks. Hie and
other Carolina workers will cover
the entire field in and around Co
lumbia to raise as much money as
possible for the oncoming summer
campaign for pigskin material.
Each person who joins the BAM
Club is expected to give at least a
dollar a month for the football for
tunes of Carolina. That makes a
total of $12 per year from each per
son who signs up.
Mr. Gressette says he has re
ceived checks for as much as $75
and $100 so far. However, most of
the contributions have been ranging
from one to ten dollars.
As soon as the BAM Club is
thoroughly established in South
Carolina Mr. Gressette plans to
move into interstate circles, finally
establishing branch organizations
wherever there are Carolina men.
Each BAMMER will receive a
weekly letter from Coach Rex En
right during football season and a
monthly letter thereafter. The
BAMMERS will see motion pic
tures of all Carolina football games.
Tlhey will also get preference of
tickets to all athletic contests.
