Traditional Rivalry
Renewed Thursday
By RALPH GREGORY
Sports Editor
The University of South Carolina and Clemson College
renew their 49-year-old rivalry tomorrow afternoon at Caro
lina Stadium in the annual State Fair classic. Game time is
2:00 and more than 35,000 fans are expected for the get
together.
This is the big game for both teams and offers the great
est athletic event in the entire state. For most South Caro
linians it is a holiday. For football fans it is their annual
gridiron thriller, fashion show and alumni get-together rolled
into one great show.
Both teams will enter the game in top shape and expecting
to win. Pressure will be on both teams since this is the big
game for both schools. A win in this game is considered
enough to constitute a successful season.
If a so-called authority decided to pick a winner he would
likely pick the Tigers from Clemson, but those who know the
way these games go, shy away from any predictions. Never
theless, with the impressive record that the Tigers have
rolled up they will go into the game as one to two touchdown
favorites.
Clemson has rolled over three opponents whil losing only
once, that loss to a strong College of Pacific team. In the same
number of games Carolina has a 2-2 record.
Clemson rolled over Presbyterian, N. C. State and Rice be
fore losing to COP. In the same period Carolina has beaten
Furman and The Citadel while losing to Duke and North
Carolina.
Both teams have great backfields with the Gamecocks
probably having a slight edge in that department. However,
the Tigers makeup for that.alight deficit with a solid forward
wall, one that is rated superior to tf%i 6rfnwaxia.
Coach Frank Howard of the Tigers calls this team the
best he has ever coached, and that includes last year's Orange
Bowl champs. He is particularly high on his line. Clemson is
rated high nationally, at one time in the top twenty.
Howard's eleven will feature two great breakaway runners
in the persons of Billy Hair and Buck Georke; a good power
runner in Jim Shirley ; and will rely on Hair to handle the
passing. The Tigers run from the single wing and rely a great
deal on power thrusts that may prove very effective against
the Gamecock line, which has shown weak spots at times.
The Carolina attack will be from the "T" formation and
will feature the running of All-America candidate, Steve
Wadiak, and Hootie Johnson at the halfback spots. For power
running the Gamecocks can call on fullback Bobby Drawdy,
a sophomore who has shown a lot of promise in his first four
games. To relieve Drawdy, Coach Rex Enright can call on
Bob Korn, another sophomore who has been running well for
the Birds.
The game may turn into a personal duel betwveen Wadiak
and Hair. Hair is leading the Southern Conference in total
offense and is rated the brightest Clemson star since the days
of Bobby Gage. Wadiak will need no introduction to Clemson
fans or coaches. Last year he put on the greatest one-man
exhibition ever seen in a Big Thursday clash. He gained 256
yardls rushing against Clemson last year and scored two
touchdowns to spark the Birds to an upset tie with the Tigers
14.-14.
The passing for Carolina will be handled by Johnny Gram
ling and Dick Balka. They have Walt Shea, A. W. Skelton and
Wadiak for targets. Passing may become important if the
Clemson line lives up to expectations.
The stars aren't always the ones who get the publicity,
however, as the lineman can very easily decide the game. If
that is the case the Tigers have plenty of highly rated men
in the forward wall. Led by Dan Dimucci the Tiger line may'
be the toughest one the Gamecocks have met. For outside
play Glenn Smith is the top end offensively and defensively.
D)on Early, Larry Smith and Harry Jabbusch will probably
lead the Gamecock defensive line, with Louis Harrelson, since
Gargano and Paul Stephens teaming with Alex Kavounnis to
open the holes for the backs.
It will be a battle not only between the players and fans
but a grudge game between the coaches of the two schools.
In their opposing battles E4nright has come out ahead in
games won 4-3. Howard will be out for revenge.
With all the spirit and rivalry in this game previous rec
ords mean very little. Last year's score is unimpovtant and
statistics are no more than figures once these two get to
gether. Whatever the situation, thousands of loyal fans will
be treated to one of the greatest football shows they can ever
hope to see. Big Thursday, it's wonderfullI!
