After being shaken and worried,

Rex Enright expects his team to be
at their psychological peak for
their first opponent of the year
from the strong Southeastern Con.
ference. Frnka of Tulane will
bank on a powerful line and the
passing arm of Joe Ernst to off
set Carolina's. psychological ad
vantage.
Fullback Bill Rutledge, who was
injured in the second pre-season
scrimmage against North Caro
lina, is expected to go againEt Tu
lane to strengthen Carolina's run
ning attack. Rutledge was the of
fensive fullback last year until he
injured his leg. This will be his
first appearance this year, how
ever.
, Bishop Strickland and Harry
Deloache, who were the individual
stars of the victory over Furman,
are again expected to carry the
heaviest offensive load this week
end. They are tied for the lead in
scoring with two touchdowns
apiece.
The Gamecocks have been wcrk
ing particularly on pass protection
in practice this week. Quarter
back lo Hagen was repeatedly
rushed by Furman last week.
Hagen also has been working on
his punting.
Line coath Hank Bartos has the
e% th waae.crttino
the timing of his linemen perfect
ed. In both the Newberry and
Furman games, penalties stifled
several potential Carolina touch
downs.
Bartos must also prepare his
men for meeting the Tulane line,
one of the strongest in the South.
The two giant tackles, Bill Estes
and Phii Alexander, should be oit
a par with the Tulane tackles. Ed
Dew, co-captain Al Faress, Jack
Kaneft, and Roy Skinner will have
the job of holding down the
guards.
The status of Ernie Lawhorne,
defensive halfback, is still uncer
tain. Lawhorne dislocated his
shoulder against Newberry and
missed the game Friday night.
Red Harrison, last year's most
valuable player, will be Enright's
defensive ace again. Harrison, al
though a blocking and tackling
specialist, is second only to Bishop
Strickland in total ground-gain
ing. The redheaded fullback has
picked up 170 yards in 23 tries for
an average of 7.3.
