USC, Furmc G AMECOCKS * By JIMMIE HILL * e The Breeze... Here Winding up its home season, the Gamecocks meet an ancient foe to .morrow in the form of the Hurricane of Furman University. A recently compiled record of past games reveals that Furman ha the edge on the Gamecocks in games won, 14-12. It is reliably reporte< that the statistics will read 14-13 after tomorrow. Furman brings a team much similar to the Bird's when they invade USC. They have a crack first string lead by the highly rated Dewey Proctor, but have little in the way of reserves. For the first time in years, it looks as if the Gamecocks are going to have the advantage over a foe In reserve strength. Coupled with this, I believe our first string is better. It is a cinc1 that the Wind's win over Citadel, .20-0 was not nearly so much a fea as Carolina's win a week before. After the Gamecock clash, word ha that'"the Bulldogs weren't in condition to run a good scrimmage, muc less fight the Purple Hurricane. I very rarely stick my neck out and make predictions, for the simple reason that usually I don't know enough about what the score will be. Tomorrow, however, I give the Gamecocks a two touch down lead. Would anyone care to bet on that? No?? Well, good, because I wouldn't either. * High Tide For some reason, I'm not disappointed with last week's game. Sure, beard the first half, did you hear the second? Carolina's squad put mor fight in front of the Crimson Tide than many another team did befor similar opposition. For instance, the Florida, Georgia track meet. Not forgetting the Kentucky, Georgia Tech affair. And the Tide didn't score on the Gamecocks in the second period. There was some good play In 0he whole game by Birds. Earl Dun -ham impressed me over the radio, as did Louis Sossamon, Bill Mil ner, Joe Johnson, and Dom Fusci. All In all, not a bad game, I think * Inter-Froternity Events Drifts to this behind-the-time ears that the Fraternities have taken u; bowling again as a way to health, happiness, and possible victor's laurels Scores in the first week's encounters ran consistently 2-1. Besides be ing slightly monotonous, this seems to indicate that competition is ver) close, no teams having swept over their opponents. The first week's high scoring team was Phi Kappa Sigma, whose team composed of L. Brady, W. Brady, L. W. Blackmon, and J. W. Williams racked up, or down, some 1169 points. The first Brady, aforementioned was also high persoal scorer of the evening, chalking up, or as mentione< before, possibly down, 120 pins in one game, and some 324 in a set o three. The cry from the good Brotherhoods now, no doubt being "Set 'en up! I". Pins, of course. * Football Interfraternity football gets under way on the 23rd. Teams m' t bi registered tomorrow. By the way, do you intend to play? Yeah? We! brother, you had better get in shape because word has come from thE athletic office that it will be tackles those boys will be throwing instea< of the expected tags. Two tenements will be allowed to combine, and four outside recruits will be permitted to enlist with each team. This gives last years winners, tenements eleven and twelve, a definite edge when it comes to naming pre-season favorites. Having five members back from the championship squad of 1941, these boys will be as hard tc stop as a Jew leaving Germany on a bicycle. * Track Stars Missing b Coach 3. T. Penney of the track team must have been born under a lucky star. How many coaches could lose four key men from a chain pionship squad and still calmly expect to cop the state crown again? Well, that's what the Gameco, k mentor is looking forward to despite the loss of one of the fastest 4* runners in the business. In addition to losing "Scooter" Rucks, the cinders will be minus the flying feet of Glen Rice Joe Krivonak, and Jack Little. They are four of the best the state has to offer, but a neat bunch of speedsters from the sophomore ranks has enough talent to keep that victory gleam in Coach Penney's eyes. * Training Table In case any of you potential footballers are worried about getting In shape for the intra-mural clashes, here's a sure-fire method to turn the trick. It's really very simple. All you have to do is line up in front of the Steward Hall along about meal time. If any stout-hearted soul sur vives the gouging elbows, bruised shins, and crushed feet, and then still thinks about eating-well brother,, he's in the pink of condition-be lieve me l 1 W E BB'S 'HEADQUARTERS ARTST OR E -f' CAROLINA STUDENTS * PICTURE FRAMES ARTIST M'ATERIAL Community * Cut Rote Drugs 1431 MaIn St - Phone 2.4940 FIVE POINTS n MeE Biddies Win Over Davidson Kittens Unbeaten Carolina' Frosh End Season; State Champs Led by the scoring of Jack Couch, the Biddies successfully invaded Rich ardson field at Davidson and defeated the Wildkittens by the close margin of two points. The final score read 27-25 in Carolina's favor. The Carolina Frosh had the situa tion well in hand throughout the first half which ended with a 27-7 lead in their favor. The Wildkittens, sparked by a sub stitute back, scored in the third period, I but failed to add the extra point. The I 'Kittens marked up two more touch downs in the final quarter, but did not score the extra point after either touchdown. The final score reveals the closeness of the victory. The Biddies scored 27 points in the first half and then were unable to score again while the Wildkittens picked up momentum as the game progressed. Jack Couch, star Biddy back, was, the high scorer of the game and ac counted personally for ig points. His most spectacular touchdown was made when he intercepted a pass and ran 70 yards to the Davidson goal. Bob by Giles carried the ball for the other Carolina tally. The Biddies had a huge lead in the statistics, racking up nine first downs to 4Davidson's three. In their four games this season, the Biddies have piled up io2 points while holding opponents to 38. They opened the season with a 42 to 0 triumph over Daniel field from .Augusta. Halfbacks Bettis Herlong, Billy Rut land and Ernest Lawhorn ran wild in the fracas. The Clemson Cub: =ere the next to go down before the onslaught, 19-6. The Cubs, sporting a fancy T forma t1AVn, wer %aiysetai OAIVow ing that game, the Cubs junked their T. As an aftermath to the varsity clash between South Carolina and The Citadel, the freshmen of the two schools put on a classy show. With the respective lines about even in ability, it was left to the Biddies' ar ray of star backs to take the game. Fancy passing by Lawhorn and circus catches by end Pat Thrash took care of the victory. Furman USC Game Climaxes Old Feud The a7 year old fuced between the Birds and the Hurricane from the hills of Greenville will be continued to morrow at Carolina stadium. In a rambling, though unified, way the little incidents and excitements of the previous games are recorded in the dusty files of a daily newspaper. These sidelights make interesting read ing for the avid supporter of either team. It was in 1923 that Furman dedi cated its first stadium by (as the newspaper puts it) "handsomely de feating the Carolina Gamecocks". The score that year was 23 to 3. In '28 and in '29 Carolina won her last double victory. The Purple Paladins re venged these two defeats in 1930 by scoring a touchdown on the same play which Carolina had used to win the '28 decision. The Gamecocks have failed to score in 8 of the last 2o games. Furman has failed to score in 5 games of this same period. S. C. has won two games on safeties. It was in 1935 that the Gamecocks obligingly helped the Hurricane dedi cate its new stadium. In this dedi cation of Sirrine stadium the score read 20 to 7. It will be noted that both of these dedications of Furman stadiums took place on the Hurricane's home grounds. The record shows that the Gamecocks are more likely to1 win on their home grounds and thati the converse is true when the game is played in Greenville.1 Flash Nov. r r-Injury struck again today at the already small Furman squad as first string guard, Jack Summers, became a victim of plebitis. Plebitis, says the dictionary, is a swelling of the veins In the legs. Dizzy McLeod, Furman coach, announces that in case Summers' ailment persists Doc Har rison will be first choice to fill In.

Carolina will be striving e for her secord win of the season. Bouncing back from a 29-o licking e at the hands of Alabama, the Game ) cocks have been working hard all this week in an attempt to be fully pre - pared for the Hurricane. Coach Rex Enright has been giving special at tention to pass offense and defense. s Both Carolina and Furman have s shown steady improvement in aerial - offense this season. The Gamecocks even made a fair showing through the I air against the Tide. In their last two games, the Birds have clicked on 13 passes out of 23 attempts. Enright is skeptical of the Hurri cane's aerial offense and so has been drilling his charges thoroughly this week in an effort to stop Furman's passes. With Earl Dunham and "Mouse" Halsall throwing, Carolina t has been polishing her own passing game. Both teams have defeated the Cita del Bulldogs; Carolina, 14-o, and Fur man, 20-0. Early in the season, the Birds held the potent Tennessee Vols to a scoreless tie while the Hurricanes was swamped by a crushing defeat. Injured players will have consider able effect on the outcome of the game. Early this week, Carolina has three players out of uniform. Fullback Ken Roskie, end John Leit ner and tackle Dom Fusci were un able to take part in practices because t of sustained injuries from the Ala bama fracas. It was reported that Furman had several also on the bench. The optimistic fact is that Glen I Rice, the Gamecocks' ace punter, re joined the squad Tuesday after a week's lay-out. In spite of injuries, the Gamecocks are expected to be at full strength for the Hurricane. A special drill platoon of USC's Naval ROTC unit will perform at halftime intermission in Saturday's game. Ralph Lewis, secretary of the Uni versity's alumni association, said this week that any Carolina alumnus in the service will be given a free ticket to the game by calling by the alumni office on the campus Friday or Satur day. and shows great promise of walking off with top honors this season. As yet no schedule has been drawn up, but Coach Penney expects meets with Davidson, Clemson, P. C.. Cita del, possibly an army team or two, and hopes to arrange a triangular meet here with Wof ford, P. C. and Caro lina participating.
