tv BIRDS Squad's Spirit Is As Result Of Stu Dutch Elston Is Game Joe Hotkevich Is Ot The Gamecocks of the Unive in the best shape so far this sea the Tigers of Clemson College State Fair pig-skin classic. Bolstered by the student body's< warm reception given them follow ing the heart breaking defeat by Duquesne, the Birds, according to head coach Rex Enright are in fine spirit. Dutch Elston, rugged Gamecock in the blocking back slot is the big gest worry in regards to the Bird power. Dutch received a painful shoulder injury in practice prior to the Duquesne game which kept him out practically all the game. How ever hopes are high that he will be able to administer his bone crush ing blocks to lead the way for Car olina's fleet backs in tomorrow's game. Harvey Blouin, voted last year as the most valuable man on the Gamecock squad will be back in harness for the Clemson tilt. Blouin has been out of the Bird line-up all season as a result of a serious knee injury he received during the '39 campaign. Blouin's return, with his stellar offensive and defensive work is expected to sky rocket the Game cock's strength. A sad note in respect to power in the garnet and black forward wall is the absence of Joe Hatkevich,-reg ular guard who is out due to a knee injury inflicted in the Georgia game. Joe Patrone, filling Hatkevich's shoes has been showing up good at the guard position. A successful op eration has been performed on Hat kevich's knee and he should be back in the fray in a few weeks. Coach Frank Howard's Clemson Tigers will be the toughest oppo sition Carolina has encountered thus far, but such stalwarts as Urban and Nowak, ends, Applegate, tackle, Sossomon, center, Krivonak, guard and Orygu iu Akl uw5ith, ba., will offer the Bengals plenty of trouble. The Birds played a bang up game against the powerful Duquesne eleven demonstrating better block ing, tackling and all around team play than they did against Georgia in the seasons opener. The probable starting lineup against Clemson will be Urban and Nowak, ends, Applegate and Carter, tackles, Krivonak and Patrone, guards and Sossomon, center. In the backfield, Grygo, Arrowsmith, Lowv cry and either Elston or Norton will have to lug the leather. -BIDDIES MEET (CONTINUED PROM PAGE 7) of S. C. At least five former Co lumbia high school players will start tonight's gridfest. The rest of the squad is studded with stars from high schools all over the state, and action is promised when these stars clash with the array of Clem son former high school lights. The tentative starting lineup of the Biddies finds Bill Milner and "Skimp" Harrison at the flank posts, plenty good on offensive and defensive. Keenan and Neal Allen, two hefty tackles, are ready for tiger cub thrusts. The guard post are undecided as yet, Tom Abell or Wilson Johnson will start at right guard, Doyle Norman or Ernest Bauer are fighting it out for the left slot. Bruce Tate seems to have sewed up the center position. In the backfield are MacMillan at quarter, Jay Ward and Ansil Brid well at the halves, with either Bill Turner or Jack Little at the full back.

According to Tatum W. Gres sette, chief of the BAM clubbers, letters are constantly coming to his office expressing club members ap preciation for the services rendered by the organization. The features of the club's services that have been well received are the weekly letters from Coach Enright and the weekly "quarter back" ses sions, held after each game. At the weekly quarterback ses sions Banisters are privileged to see movies of the Gamecocks in action and also hear Coach Enright's ex platiation of play and players. The weekly letter has proved to be very popular and will be continued after football season, however the letters will be only once a month. The BAM club has increased the gate at Carolina's ball games by creating a keen interest in its mem bers. Ticket preference is offered those pledging themselves to Caro lina and the club. The club is not merely a Univer sity organization, it is composed of 1,065 members from all over South Carolina and many other states. Each county in the state having a local club with its own officers. The club is run in a business like man ner, headed by Tatum Gressette as secretary and a Finance board com posed of five members. The Finance Board made up of Angus Bird, pres ident of the Citizens and Southern Bank as chairman and four others, prominent in business and other professions, who are primarily in terested in the University of South Carolina and its activities. It is far more than just a means of obtaining money to strengthen athletics at Carolina. Its members are aiding the University in helpingi promote activities other than ath-1 letics, using their influence to send new students to the University and backing the school in every respect. Last week a crowd of over 200 turned out to hear Enright, Game cock mentor, discuss the Duquesne game. After Enright's talk a round table discussion was held. Aided by Abe Fennell, widely known football official, all questions concerning football and it's rules were an swe red.

Last year this blazing sophomore )ack tore the enemy lines to shreds vith his vicious blocking. This )locking was coupled with expert lefense ability, and soon opposing )acks were fearful of breaking into he Carolina secondary because Harvey was there to see that they lidn't travel too far. The members )f the football team didn't overlook his and at the end of the season roted Blouin the most valuable >layer on the squad, the first sopho nore to ever receive this award. Harvey came to the Gamecock gridiron without the usual brilliant iigh school career behind him. At :he Chicago high school where he played he held down the fullback post, he was hard working but not the flashy type and came through without all-conference or even all :ity rating. His blocking was there though, as he cleared the way for hiis teammates to tote the mail to glory. Somehow or other the sports writers in this country got wvind of the fact that there was powver in this unheralded blocking back, and placed H-arvey on the all-American :heck list for the '39 season. This rating did not go undeserved, as Blouin played a brilliant year of NATIONAL SHIRT SHOPS Swede Jackets $4.95 Reversible Fingertip Corduroy Jackets $4.98 Leather Jackets $6.95 - $8.95 - $10.95 Long Sleeve Sweaters College Colors $1.95 Sport Shirts Long Sleeves In College Colors $1.35 - $1.65 $1.95 1602 Main Street )NBE Ifback Harvey Game Tomorrow great all-around fqotball, shining most on defense. Most of the sports writers in the state were blind to all except the "glory players" and failed to see Harvey as the defen sive ace he was, he made only the second all-state team. Last year he also showed his scoring punch as he scored all of Carolina's winning touchdowns. Against Florida and Miami he scored both of Carolina's lone touch downs on passes from Billy Lowry and Rock Stroud. In the Davidson game he scored on a play from the five yard line. WITH M 0. P. 0.
