Sports quiz
This wveek we're going to ask
you to identify a man whom "Cap"
Anson literally plucked from the
sandlots of Marshalltown, Iowa.
It was said that if this brilliant
young outfielder had been able to
steal first base, he would have
been a really great ballplayer.
However, he was good enough to
hold dlown a pasture post for the
White Stockings, and he helped
them win two pennants in the
Mike Kelly era. Our mystery man
played the outfield on speed alone,
but h~e holds down his post as a
great American character on the
strength of an entirely different
set of characteristics in an entirely
different fieldl.
Your rewvard for sendling in the
first correct answer will be two
tickets to the comfortable Carolina
Theatre. Send all entries to Sports
quiz, The Gamecock, Campus.

Bird Trackmen
Don New Style Suit
They're modeling new styles in
track suits at Carolina.
Two weeks ago, the Gamecock
tracksters traveled to Athens, Ga.,
to engage the University of Georgia
in a dual meet. The weather was
so cold that coach Weems Baskin
decided that something should be
done to prevent his star runners
from suffering pulled muscles.
Tommy Woodlee, Rupert Drews,
and Ray McKenzie, three of the
Birds' fastest dash men, were
equipped with long winter under
wear heneath their trnek Qnits.
Evidently the extra equipment
didn't slow the runners down, for
Woodlee won both the 100- and
220-yard dashes. He ran the for
mer event in 9.9 seconds. Drews
placed third in the 100 and Mc
Kenzie third in the 220.

Big Winner
Winner of his first three starts, GRADY FAIRCLOTH, junior
transfer student from South Georgia Junior College, has become one
of the most dependable hurlers on Coach Ted Petoskey's pitching
staff. Grady, who hails from Donalsonville, Ga., is also no slouch as
a hitter. le garnered five safeties his first seven trips to the plate,
and is at present hitting a lusty .412. He has five runs batted In and
has stolen three bases.
Grady holds victories over Mercer, Duke University, and The Citadel.
He will likely be Petoskey's choice to start the second game of the
Furman series at Greenville tomorrow afternoon. (USC Sports Photo

By TOM PRICE
Boasting seven wins in their last
eight starts, the baseball Game
cooks are at Furman University

ern Conference contests.
The Birds swept a double
header from The Citadel 3-1; 10-3
Tuesday afternoon on Davis Field
after seeing a five-game winning
streak broken by Duke in 12 in
nings at Durham last Saturday.
The double victory over the Cadets
gave the Gamecocks a record of
eight wins and four losses in all
games played, and a 3-2 record in
Southern Conference play. The re
maining schedule includes four
games with Furman, four with
Clemson, two with The Citadel, and
two with Davidson.
The Birds toured Georgia and
Florida during the Easter holidays
and after losing to the University
of Georgia 8-3, they defeated Mer
cer University 12-7 and swept a
three-game series from Jackson
ville Naval Air Station by scores
of 5-4, 7-1, and 8-2.
Outstanding hitters on the trip
were Shortstop John Sykes, who
leads the batting race at present,
John Szakacsi, first ba.seman who
hit safely in 11 straight games,
Outfielder Ashley Phillips, and
Tom Clark, third baseman.
Grady Faircloth notched a win
over Mercer on.the Easter trip and
followed with decisions over Duke
and The Citadel to take the pitch
ing lead with a 3-0 record. Frank
Sherer has two wins and one loss,
Bill Camp 2-2, Dempsey Jones '1-0,
and Harold "Bo" Hagan has one
loss. Camp leads in innings
pitched, strikeouts, hits, and al
most every other pitching depart
ment.

with The Citadel, and will meet the
Bulldogs in a day affair in Charles
ton the next day.
