Coach Dupre Accepts Job At Florida U. Sterling DuPre, football bac field and track coach, has tend4 ed his resignation to Director Athletics Rex Enright effecti June 1, so that he may take the backfield coaching job at t University of Florida. DuPre, considered one of t finest backfield coaches in 't business, came to the Universi of South Carolina in the fall 1938. With the exception of hitch in the army, he has tutor Gamecock backs and cinderm continuously since that time. Coach DuPre was an outstal ing athlete at his alma mater, A burn, during his college days ea in the thirties. He set track r( ords in the 220 yard dash and t 440 yard run and was an outstan ing back on the footbr.ll team. Enright said that he and t department hate to see the pop lar coach leave the- campus a that all personnel wish him t best of everything in his new sition at Florida. "We will miss DuPre sorel Coach Enrigh' stated. "He h given invaluable services to t university ani he will be hard replace. As I can see it, there we two reasons for his leaving Sou Carolina: (1) a more attracti, financial arr:ngement and Gainesville is near his home South Georgia. "I can truthfully say that D Pre has been one of the fine assistant coaches I have ev COACH DUPRE known and the way he has handl the track team is remarkable. B leaving will be costly but we i not feel that we can stand in I way for advancement." Enright said that the Athlel Committee of the Board of Tru tees would meet soon to appoi a successor to DuPre as backfi( football coach. Speculation has that assistant backfield Coach Grygo will be elevated to the T sition. Grygo, former' captain the Gamecocks, is well acquaint with the present system and h< an Enright football team is erated. The Director of Athleti said that he hoped that Earl Du ham, captain of the team ye before last and Phi Beta Kapj could be hired as a full-timea sistant backfield coach. Dunha nowv employed as a part-tir coach, is an instructor in the Scht of Commerce on the campus. A track coach will be appoint later since DuPre wvill be ont campus through the current se *son.
