7idsOutpla Chick'en In The Rough By CHICK SHIELS You bet your bottom dollar that was a fine ball game! ! It will be the best one seen in these parts for quite awhile and if Lady Luck had so desired to cast her Pepsodent smile on the Garnet and"Black the story would have been different. But it's too late to cry over "what could have been done." Speaking .for the entire student body we say, "THANIS" to Carolina's gridsters for the superb ball that they exhibited on Saturday. And for myself, we'd like to add one other laurel to the list-that being to the STOODENTS who gave such terrific support to help the cause along. You, and you and you-each and every one of this mighty 4,115-deserve a lot of credit for the wild cheering and staunch support of your team. It really made your bald-headed servant happy to lose voice, lungs and 10 pounds for the cause. When Brother "Bo" Hagan flipped that lush aerial to Earl Dunham in the first frame, bedlam broke loose and rightly so, that was a fine piece of work. The stands went wild! We just stopped and let the blood vessels break where they would, as the Mighty Tide had been brought to a dribble. Brother Harry G. didn't show much with his lads on the ground and little of his flaunted attach in the air. Enright, Inc., had the Tuscaloosa men tied on the turf and held to a minimum via the airways which caused many a contented smile from the near 21,000 screaming fans that rocked the Stadium.

Rumor clinics told this scribe that USC had no reserve ma terial to speak of-would someone inform us exactly which club was the second team?

Mr. Thomas decided he wouldn't worry his first team over such a minor matter as the Gamecocks, and besides it was good psychology, designed to ruin the Garnet and Black morale, to start his second team. Seems the men in the white jersies weren't such good students of psychology, so when Mr. Thomas sent his first team in to relieve the second which had been pushed around more than somewhat-the Game cocks didn't get the psychological word, and instead of being stricken with awe at the mighty Gilmer and Company, they were stricken with the power to score. The "lady" and gents in the press box were as enthusiastic as any other loyal Carolina fan at that bloW, and were lifting the roof off quite some.

There were 20,000 witnesses in the Carolina Stadium, who will also avow the fact that the Gamecocks opened up with an offense that was strictly dynamite. The Birds could not utilize their efforts to the best advantage, however, and had to settle for the consolation of having out-played the Rose Bowlers in every department. The game began with 'Bama's first team enjoying "box seats' to what they expected to be a one sided affair, but in a few moments they were forced to drop their California road maps and dash onto the field for a closer view of their opponents, who had proven too classy for the second eleven, Carolina had just made a firsi down on the Alabama 41 yard line The Gamecocks limbered up the regulars with one line play, ther brought the crowd.to its feet when "Bo" Hagan faded back and loop ed a long pass to Earl Dunham who had been employed as v "sleeper" on the sideline.

Morrow's place ment split the uprights to put the Crimsons ahead. The Gamecocks continued to run the Tide ragged in the third quar ter and stopped every offensive ef fort the opposition could make. In the fourth quarter Alabama made the final touchdown on a one-yard plunge by Grant, after Carolina's safety man had fumbled a quick kick on his 14. Five rhnning plays moved the ball over the goal line. Pass interceptions and fumbles cut short several South Carolina threats throughout the game, so the Gamecocks were denied the victory, which would have been such an appropriate reward for the brand of football they played. The whole line completely out charged the 'Bama forwards; one simply couldn't point out an indi vidual to give the credit. End, Wil son, Kale Alexander, tackle, and Captain Meeks formed the nucleus of a line that gave up only 49 yards on the ground. Hagan, Har rison, and Dunham were the of fensive sparks that "out-yarded" the Tide, passing and running.
