Enlarging Stadium Proposed By State General Assembly A $175,000 enlargement of the University's 17,600 capacity steel and concrete stadium by 10,000 seats was proposed by the Gen eral Assembly of South Carolina. The House Ways and Means Committee offered a bill author izing the University to issue $175, 000 in revenue bonds to finance the expansion. Stadium revenues would be pledged to these bonds. A member of the University trustees' athletic committee said the plan for enlargement included enclosing one end of the stadium, adding approximately 10,000 seats; building sideline boxes; and adding 500 50-yard sideline seats by moving the press-box back to the rim of the stadium. . next door goes you one better. Stern believes that the answer is to keep sports in the colleges completely amateur. "Athletic achievements, how ever sensational, should be secon dary and should serve as a means to an end, namely a legitimate college diploma," Stern concludes. "Let's keep the record straight. When a college athlete plays for pay, he's a professional no mat ter what uniform he wears."

The Tiger coach said, "Rucks is the finest track man a South Car olina college has produced in re cent years, and if he doesn't lower the 21.9 second record held jointly by Gordon Lynn of Clemson and Bill Hutt of South Carolina in the 220-yard dash and his own 50 second flat 440 record, it will be due to conditions beyond Rucks' control. "Rucks has the ability, the heart, and the form to topple both records," Norman continued. "He runs smoothly, without an inch of lost motion, and with what ap pears to be very little effort. His form is beautiful." Rucks set the state 440 record razy Sh is a crazy shot featuring Pepsi e the three or four beet "shots" hese, you get ten buck,.

The team's rec ord to date is three wins against twelve losses. Tomorrow the club will travel to Spartanburg for a game with Wofford. This game marks the first of the season between the two teams. In the Duke contest of last Fri day, Carolina's hitting clicked nicely, but the pitching bogged down. Hagan allowed four bases on balls in four innings, and Sherer allowed six free passes. This coupled with 13 Duke hits accounted for the 11-5 score. Al though the Bird sluggers amassed 11 hits, they couldn't make them pay off in runs. Notes from the dugout Coach Catfish Smith was forced to use Will Harvin behind the bat in the P. C. and Duke games... We have no report on Sonny Way, but he obviously was injured in a previous game . . . The other catcher, Scott, must have been shelved also . . . Jack Couch, one of the leading hitters in the state and the team's pace setter, has been laid up with a bad arm for the past week. It is hoped that he will get back into the lineup soon . . . Harry Parone led the team at bat in the first Duke game, getting three hits for four times at bat . . . Harry has been hitting well all season, as have Earl Dun ham, Joe Johnston, Mel Cribb and several others . . . Cy Szakasci has been continuing his fine pitch ing performances, but just can't dent the win column, after having handcuffed the Citadel in Charles ton in April.
