Birds I
Beat Georgia;
Lose To Old
Liners, Deacs
By KEN BALDWIN
Carolina's fighting Gamecocks,
shaking off the charge that they
were not ball players, turned
back the determined Georgia Bull
dogs 64-61 Wednesday to top their
two weekend losses to Wake For
est and Maryland.
The Gamecocks will meet The
Citadel tomorrow night at 8
o'clock in an important state and
southern conference game. A win
will give them undisputed claim
to the state title and more than
likely a bid to the conference
tourney March 4, 5 and 6 in Dur
ham, N. C.
Revenge Earlier Loss
In beating the Bulldogs, the
Birds revenged an earlier 70-57
loss in Athens, Ga., while playing
the finest game local fans have
seen them play this year. Team
play, individual performances and
a smooth defense, marred by only
13 foulsA led the way for a see
ond half comeback that saw them
take over shortly after intermis
sion and stay ahead the remainder
of the game.
A ftert a rough beginning, the
Gamecocks put on a drive in the
final minutes of the first half and
tied the score. Georgia's Harvill
broke the tie with five seconds re
maining to give Georgia a 31-29
halftime advantage.
Coming back fast Carolina gain
ed a :15-34 lead after less than
three minutes had elapsed and
stayed from six to nine points
ahead throughout the half.
Henry Martin was nigh scorer
with 19 points and Georgia's Har
vill shot 18. Gamecocks Al Adams
nnd Steve Trewhella dropped in
12 each and Phil Cantore and Cy
Szakaesi shot eight each.
Lose To Deacs
Vake Forest came from behind
in the last half to win 52-46 Fri
day as the Deacons Jack Gentry
)Ut on a one-man scoring spree
to lead their second half attack.

OFFICIALS VS. STUDEN'fS
Officiating in the Wake Forest
game b)rought storms of protest
in the fornm of booes, mostly from
students. It can be safely said
that officiating in that game was
not up to par. Many fouls were
committed that they d8d not call
and the game nearly got out of
hand.
The Maryland game was offici
ated by two good officials who (lid
make a few mistakes, mostly on
out-of-bounds plays. No officials
are perfect, but Williams and
Breeland did a good job, and
caught a lot of things the aver
age fan never sees,- but in the
case here, always boos.
And they didn't call them all,
either. When 45 fouls are called in
a Southern conference game, that
may be more than usual, but noth
ing like the number that have
been called on the nation's top
teams in Madison Square Gar
dlen. In two games there in one
night, a total of 143 fouls were
called.

4-4 draw with Georgia, the Caro

to bob, weave, and gain strength
before swinging into a well rested
Clemson team at 7:45 p. m., to

Led by a light-footed, unde

the Gamecocks could produce a
never-to - be - forgotten thumping
session. Rutledge proved himsell
against the Bulldogs "Goot"
Steiner, by taking all the sluggei
had to offer, then coming back
with his own counter-offensive to
win the decision. He will face
Salisbury of Clemson.
Arising from the football melee
