Intramural footbah swung into

Sports quiz
Werner Strauss, ' Tenement 28,
has two tickets to Columbia's house
of hits, the Carolina Theatre, as
a result of his promptness in re
turning an entry marked "Wah
Wah Wallace Jones" to last week's
sportsquiz. Billy Kincaid, Lamar
Smith, Fred Wilson, Carl Langley,
and Howard Casada were right
too, but tardy.
The only Gamecock opponent
who is expected to be on the All
American lists at the end of the
season, this six foot, seven-inch
man-about-the-courts shot a record
(for the state in which he com
petes) of five hundred and thirty
four points last year. Because of
this, in addition to an unbelievable
total of sixty-three points in one
game, he was the recipient of the
1949-50 Haggerty trophy for gen
eral excellence.
His best shot, of many good ones,
is a "jump" which virtually can
not be blocked. Considered a
"lightweight" at 210, he has least
success with his pivot, which is
usually a little weak. In seven
games last year he managed 25
points. Although he was once
held to eight points, he makes a
habit of outscoring his opponents
and only three ieu had what might
be called a "good night" against
him.
He is a major in physical edu
cation and history, and a popular
lad at school.
Name the lad quickly, write the
name of his school below his name,
then your name and address and
send both to Gamecock Sports, Box
79, Campus.
