Birds Carolina's Baseball Season With Three Most Positions Are F Exception Of Second Be After three weeks of regular squad is approaching their first be Michigan State here Monday : shows excellent fielding and go4 is now faced with trying to mal Tough competition faced the season for the various positions I up quickly now. Some doubt i the outfield. Ken Roskie is resting securely at first base. Ken was out most of last week with a broken rib but he is now back in uniform. Junie Hymson looks good on sec ond base but he is being crowded somewhat by Calhoun "Sonny" Ay cock. Carlyle Holliday has shortstop "sewed up." Carlyle received much praise from the local papers early in practice and from all appearances, that praise is not groundless. Van Earl Fillingim looks like the right man to hold down the "hot corner." He has been showing up well in the practices and no one is in sight to contest his position. There are a number of outfielders who are working hard for positions. They are Truman Hoxit, Earl Dun ham, John Leitner, Angelo De Mario, Herbert Coman, William Outlaw, and Daily Harris. The same pitching staff is getting their arms in shape day after day. They are Joe Grugan, Waldo Hy man, Marcus Stark, Ray Player, Leonard Kanian, and George Craw ford. Three excellent catchers are to be found in Graham Rhoden, Joe Patrone, and Bruce Tate. From early prospects, the fielding of the Birds will be about the best in the state. The hitting was poor early in the practice season but has greatly improved to date and justi fies, the description of "good."

Carolina Will Have No Solf Team This Year Dr. Havilah Babcock announced last night that there would be no golf team this year. Due to lack of interest and as a result, practically no applicants, it will be fruitless to try to organize a golf team for intercollegiate com petition. Most of the veterans which con posed last year's team did not returti to school this year as a result of graduation and various other rea sons. About the most outstanding golfer which would otherwise be eligible for the team is Jane Cruni who has been burning up the greens all over the south. Even she would be ineligible to participate on tht golf team because it comnpetes against teams made up of men and a new ruling has overruled that.. ed And Pressed ed And Pressed Ic tESSING CLUB (ND DELIVERY ate M Bird Tennis Open Seasc Will Play Host To The T Squad; Successful Seasoi The University of South Car 1941 debut Monday afternoon, 1 Boston University squad.

Already the golf, tennis and swim ming teams had suffered from the invasion of the powder puff brigade --welcome invasion, we hasten to add-and there was some talk that, unless the boys looked to their laurels, that further invasions were imminent. In fact, the glamour gals played themselves a bootball game last fall and a couple weeks ago came out with a full fledged fencing team which defeated the University of North Carolina feminine foil fling ers. But, alas and alack, them days are gone forever. From now on the girls may par ticipate in athletics-hut they can't participate with or against the boys. This was decided at a meeting of the special committee on athletics of the university at a recent meeting. The committee ruled that "Effective this date, February 26, 1941, and thereafter, women students will not he permitted to participate, engage in, or represent the University of South Carolina in any athletic event in which men students predominate; this action having specific reference both to inter-collegiate and intra collegiate contests." The special committee is com posed of Dr. J. Rion McKissick, president of the University; John A. Chase, Jr., registrar and Rex En right. athletic director. .E at X,N .
