Paper Mistaken

The Gamecock in addition to its
egular duties of serving as a
kews media for campus activities
Lnd events has been called upon
o disseminate information of vari
us kinds.
Last July, a letter reached the
amecock requesting information
bout raising fighting cocks:
'Dear Sir:
My brother and I are interested
n finding out the possibilities of
aising fighting cocks. Although
naterial and information concern
ng the raising of cocks are very
imited, we feel that possibly your
nagazine can help us a lot.
Would appreciate you lettinig us
:now the subscription fee etc of
rour magazine 'Gamecock.'
Thank you for the time and ef
ort we remain,
Very truly yours,
H. KOCH"
Although there is a magazine in
he state devoted to raising
'Gamecocks," the campus paper
ass yet to give coverage to the
election, feeding and training of
ighting birds.
However, this phase of the poul
ry industry is known to be highly
pecialized if a sure winner is to
'e developed. Observers of the
port which is popular in some
ections of the U. S. and some
oreign countries do offer limited
nformation. They report that
raining begins when the birds are
'cry young and continues until the
irds are entered in contests.
If a bird wins, he is exercised
or future events. If he loses, no
urther training is necessary.
No doubt the letter should be
eferred to Clemson since raising
rdinary poultry is in the curricu
um there, unless the coaching
taff here could furnish some in
'ormation as to the selection of
heir biddies and in developing
heir selection into fighting cocks.

The contract between the u
WCOS for what was considered
university football games this 1
1982 State Law by Circuit Judi
14.
Judge Greneker took the cai
hearing which lasted nearly six
The 1932 statute prohibits state
educational institutions charging I
for broadcasts of their athletic I
events. The law also specifies that
at least three stations shall be
afforded broadcasting opportuni
ties.
Judge Greneker's order was in
stituted by 12 radio stations in the
state against Norman M. Smith,
president of the university, the
university board of trustees, and
Radio Station WCOS regarding a
eofitract the university had made
with WCOS for football broadcasts
this year.
Plaintiff . stations contended in
their complaint that the contract
violated the 1982 statute and in
effect, kept them from entering
the stadium to broadcast.
The university claimed it was
not selling broadcasting privileges,
but that it only was renting its
new stadium broadcasting facili
ties. WCOS was the only bidder
for the facilities although four
Columbia stations were asked to
bid. Also the university said the
contract provided for WCOS to
offer its broadcast to at least one
station in each city or town in the
i state where one or more station
operates.
Judge Greneker did not make
permanent an injunction against
the contract, although he said, "i
is clear to me, an injunction should
be granted on possible further
court action."
His order prohibited the univer
sity from granting exclusive sports
broadcasting privileges to any one
station.
The university was directed to
extend to at least three stations
the privilege of broadcasting full
play-by-play accounts "and no
iharge shall be made to such
broadcasting companies for such
.privileges."
Judge Greneker added, however,
that "it may be that the univer
sity can make a charge for the
use of its broadcasting facilities
but it cannot make the right to
broadcast play-by-play accounts of
the games contingent upon the
rental . . . of the facilities."
.His order commented further
that President Smith's July re
quest to the four radio stations In
Columbia for bids on the use of
its facilities did not in reality
"extend the broadcast privileges
to three companies but requested
one of the four addressed stations
to bid highest and shut out the
others," Greneker said.
"If a big juicy watermelon is
to be divided among three persons,
I It seems that the cutting should
be done so each should have a part
I of the heart," he commented. Un
der no condition shall the univer
sity make it impossible for at

east three stations to broadcast

play-by-play account of the game.
When informed of the decision,
President Smith issued the follow
:ng statement:
If the order of tue court is made
permanent, the university will
,arry out such order to permit
hree broadeasting companies to
roadcast the football games from
he stadium and will permit a full
play-by-play account concurrent
with,the play.
"There will be no charge made
!or the privilege of broadcasting.
[I the selected broadcasting com
)anies wish to use the university's
accommodat'rs, facilities and per
ionnel, a rusonable- charge for
'hese sevices will be made."

croup to ge.
For example, Prestoif with its
creat number of students would
lave a larger group to draw from
han one of the tenements. There
Fore, Preston must get a larger
