Chesterfield
Contest
To Robby Osborne, Box 2962,
goes the honor of smoking the
final carton of Chesterfields in
our 1 0-week-long series of contests
to idlentify former Carolina ath
letes. Osborne was the first of
nine students to correctly identify
our final athlete as Jane Crum
(flow Mrs. Covington) of Orange
burg.
Others who knew the gal but
were a little slow in letting us
know about , it were: Ronald
Adams, George Sample, Brooks
Harrison, David Crum (her brother
maybe), G. V. Felder, Elizabeth
Landlrum, Paul J. Greer, Jr., and
D)eLacy Lindl.
To Bill Gibbes, campus repre

Bird Trackmen
To Meet Furman
Here Tomorrow
The track team will meet Fur
man tomorrow afternoon on the
Gamecock track. The first events
will begin at 12:30.
The Gamecocks, who*have been
the surprise team in the state this
season, will be favored over the
Baptists on the basis of compara..
tive scores. This will be the final
dual meet of the year for the
Birds, but they will enter the
state track meet at Clinton next
week.
If they get by Furman, the
Carolina cindermen will' probably
enter the state meet as a favorite.
The -Birds have a record of three
wins and two losses in dual meet
competition this season. They won
from Davidson, Presbyterian, and
Clemson, and lost to North Caro
lina State and Georgia.
The surprisingly good showing
of the Gamecocks can be attributed
to several men who have been
consistent point makers all season.
It was generally known 'at the
beginning of the season that Caro
lina would be weak in the field
events and that Coach Baskins
would not field a well-balanced
squad. These consistent men who
get more than their share of
points have helped offset the weak
nesses.
The most valuable man to the
squad has been Charlie McGill,
Columbia senior, who has averaged
16 points per meet. He won two
meets for the Gamecocks by com
ing through with a win in the
final event, the low hurdles.
Tommy Woodlee, Chicamauga,
Ga., sophomore, has won every 100
and 220-yard dash that he has en
tered this year. He has run the
100 in 10 seconds or less each
time. His best time was 9.8.
Captain Ray McKenzie, Kings
tree senior, is a consistent winner
in the 440. His best time in this
event was 51 seconds flat. Mc
Kenzie also throws the javelin at
times and has copped second place
each time he has entered that di
vision.

A possible Southern Conference
gouthern Division championship
will be at stake this afternoon
when the baseball team clashes
with the arch-rival Clemson Tigers
in the first of a two-game series
this afternoon on Davis Field.
The Gamecocks are currently
in fourth place in the division with
a record of seven wins and three
losses while the Tigers occupy the
second spot. If Carolina could
sweep the series with the Cadets
from the hill country, the league
championship wouldn't be out of
reach, for the North Carolina
teams, especially North Carolina
State and Wake Forest, appear to
be evenly matched. If the Tar
Teel teams were to split with each
other in their remaining games, the
Gamecocks could ride in by sweep
ing by Clemson in the series here
and the two games scheduled at
Clemson week after next. Of
course, the Birds will also have
to get by Davidson next Tuesday

but these teams have met before
and Clemson poses the major prob
lem at the moment.
This afternoon's game, which
will begin at 3:30, will be pre
ceded by the crowning of "Mis
Baseball of 1950" by the captain
of the team and by a short skit
presented by the 'ep Club. Miss
Baseball will be selected by the
members of the team and will be
the official baseball queen for the
year.
Bobby Rogers, Gamecock center
fielder, continued his sensational
hitting spree at Davidson Tuesday
afternoon and led the Birds to an
8-5 win over the Wildcats. Roger's
four singles in five times at bat
gave him a total of 13 hits in his
last 23 trips to the plate. The
speedy Orangeburg senior (a
junior as far as baseball eligibility
is concerned) began the season as
a reserve, but broke into the lineup
when Red Wilson was lost to the
squad.
