Field House Finale RALPH GREGORY: Hi, Sport! Two weeks ago we presented one of the Gamecock mem ber's view of the referees that work the USC games in the Field house. This week we have some disagreement by an other one of our co-workers. Here is his plea for the referee. "The Carolina students have become increasingly loud in their denunciation of the referees at the basket ball games. Penalties, just or unjust, are met with oAud hisses, catcalls and boos from the spectators. Certainly, some of the penalties against Carolina are unjust, but this is also true of those against the other teams. At a basketball game, no one is expected to behave as if he were in church, but insulting remarks and hisses directed at the referees are poor sportsman ship and a reflection on the university and its students. "Refereeing a basketball game is a strenuous job, and the referees must call the plays as they see them. The yelps and howls of the students distract them and prevent them from doing a better job of calling the plays. By refraining from loud remarks concerning the referee's ancestry, we will not only help our team, but will show better, cleaner sportsmanship." Any more comments? ROUGH ROAD AHEAD The basketball team has a tough road to travel if it wants to reach Raleigh in time for the playoffs. They need two wins in their next three games to win a shot at the title and those three games are against top-flight teams. Tomorrow night it will be Dick Groat & Company to entertain Coach Frank Johnson's boys. The Dukes are presently very near the top in the conference and have al ready cinched a berth in the playoffs. They have a well roundled team plus the services of Dick Groat. Groat is probably the best all-round player in the con ference today. His great ball hawking lifted the Blue Devils to an upset win over N. C. State a couple of weeks back. He's not just a hot and cold player either; Groat is dangerous all the time. According to a national forecaster, the Dukes are favored by 23 points. Next week come two more that won't be easy. Tuesday night it's Wake Forest and Friday Clemson. Both these teams have appeared here and have shown to be quite adept at running up the points. We beat Clemson but since that time the Tigers have been on a winning spree and have already cinched a conference invite. Wake Forest was here Tuesday night with Dickie Hemric. Enough said. BONE-CRACKING DEMONSTRATION "Men, this hold is the greatest equalizer since the Colt .45," Coach Sam Barnes told his University of North Carolina wrestling team a few days before the West Virginia match. Ed Haines, a solid 147-pounder from Philadelphia, stepped up to serve as the guinea pig. He knew that the young coach was worried about the tough Mountaineers and anything he could do to help get himself and the squad ready for the meet would be beneficial. "You put your arms around your opponents shoulder this way," explained Barnes, grabbing Haines, "and you flip him this way. "You can break a man's shoulder with this hold if you aren't careful." The flip occurred. "You can get up now, Eddie," Barnes continued. Haines groaned but didn't move. "You did, Coach," he answered. "Did what ?" "Broke my shoulder," the grappler replied. The junior prospect from the Quaker City managed to get to his feet. His right shoulder was cracked. "As I was telling you, men," Barnes mumbled, "it takes a tough man to get out of this one in good shape." The Tar Heels dropped a 80-0 decision to the West Vir ginia team a few days later without the services of Ed Haines. UNCToHost Conference Track. Meet CHAPEL HILL, N. C., Feb. 20 Eight individual champions are on the lists to defend their titles in the Conference division of the 17th annual Southern Conference Indoor Games here March 1. Only one, low hurdler Frank Scott, is affiliated with the Univer sity of North Carolina team cham pions. Scott, in the upcoming track carnival, also will be entered in the 60-yard dash, in which he was disqualified last year, and the broad jump. Four of the defending champions are members of the potent Mary land team, which finished third in the 1951 meet, while two are from Duke, runner-up last year, North Carolina State will have one title holder in the competition. The Maryland champions are Al Buehler, 880; Tyson Creamer, mile; Jack Unterkofler, shot put; and Bill Barnham, high jump. Barn ham was tied in his event by team mate Dick Lentz and Duke's Francis Nickols of Duke, neither of whom will be around this year. Seeking to repeat first place wins for Duke's Blue Devils will be John Tate in the 400 and Henry Poss in the broad jump. State's two-mile champion, Clyde Garrison, may be used in the mile or other distance events, rather than the longest haul. Wake Forest (Continued from page 5) points.
