The Gamecocks will take on The
Citadel Bulldogs tomorrow after
noon in Charleston's Johnson
Hagood stadium which will un
officially decide the state football
championship.
The Gamecocks have given up
only one touchdow'n while rolling
over three state foes so far this
season. They have downed Wof
ford, 33-0, Furman, 27-7, and
Clemson 6-0. The Bulldogs, mean
while have defeated Newberry, 18
6, Presbyterian, 26-7, and have tied
Furman, 7-7.
One of the largest crowds ever
to see a football game in Charles
ton is expected to be present for
the intra-state game. The game
will also launch The Citadel's
homecoming festivities.
Last season the Gamecocks won,
26-7. but Charlestonians still are
remembering the game of 1950,
when the Bulldogs upset the Birds,
19-7.
The Citadel has placed so much
importance on this game that they
did not schedule a game for last
Saturday, preferring to have more
time in preparing for the Game
cocks.
One of the highlights of The
Citadel game will be the passing
duOel between Johnny Gramling and
D)ick Balka, quarterbacks for the
Gamecocks, and The Citadel's
Buddy Friedlin. Both Friedlin and
G;ramling rank high among the
best in the Southern Conference,
while Balka proved his worth in
the Virginia game,
The South Carolina fans who
madle the long journey to Norfolk
to see the Virginia Cavaliers and
the Gamecock. battle in the Oyster
Bowvl had little to cheer about for
three quarters of that bruising
game. In fact It was only in the
last six minutes of the fourth
quarter that the Birds began to
roll.
With time running out on an all
but defeated Gamecock team,
reserve quarterback Dick Balka
took over the signal calling. The

Birds were on the short end of
a 14-0 score when Balka tossed I
the first of three passes. The first
pass was caught by Lockhart Mc
Lendon, right halfback who carried
to the Virginia 41 and a Gamecock
first down. The second Balka pass
found Walt Shea for another first
down on the Virginia 26. The
third successive pass went to end
Clyde Bennett in the end zone and
the Carolina fans finally had some
thing to cheer about.
It was only a matter of seconds
latter that the fired up Gamecocks
tied the score.
Jarrett kicked off for the Birds
and the ball bounced by Virginia's
Herman Gatling and defensive
halfback Bob Korn and tackle
George Martin recovered for the
Gamecocks on the Virginia six.
A running play netted one yard,
a line play carried to the one,
and then with Balka still calling
offensive signals, freshman half
back Mike Caskey bulldozed his
way over left guard for the second
Carolina touchdown. Jarrett made
the extra point despite the great
pressure on him and the game
was tied, 14-14.
Jarrett again kicked off for the!
Gamecocks with the clock showing
four minutes and 11 seconds left
in the game. Virginia's Blackie
Tate caught the ball on the nine
and returned the kick to the
Cavalier 21, but the home team
was penalized for clipping back
to their six yard line.
On the second play, second-string
quarterback Charlie Harding
fumbled when he was hit by the
hard-charging Gene Witt, Game
cock right tackle. The ball spurted
into the end zone where Bob King,
defensive guard for the Birds fell
on it for the Gamecocks winning
touchdown. Jarrett made it three
in a row when his placement split
the up-rights and the score was
21-14, and the Carolina Gamecocks
had come up with the biggest upset

Men Report
Head basketball coach Frank
Johnson faces a rebuilding job this
year in getting the team ready for
a rough and heavy schedule of
twenty-four games. The first team
last year was relatively short as
compared to other teams in the
conference except for second string
center Jim Gainey, (6-8), who was
used sparingly. Johnson will have
to depend heavily on Freshmen this
season in rebuilding because of the
loss of All-State guards Mickey
Best and Don Cox and All-State
forward Dwane Morrison.
Back from last year's first team
are center John Peterson, and for
wards Joe Smith and Tom Hof
ferth. Peterson was second only
to Morrison in scoring with 342
points for an average of 14.9 a
game. Also returning from last
year are guards Jack Wise, Frank
Wright, Randy Coleman, and
George Claussen along with for
wards Bob Finley, and Merv
Rabinowitz and center Jim Gainey.
Johnson is putting his hopes main.
ly on some tall new Freshmen
who have to come through if the
team is to have a winning year.
The tallest of the newcomers is
I.ee Collins (6-6), center from
Lancaster who played for Wingate
Junior College last year and
scored around 400 points. He
should give Gainey a good fight
for the starting slot this season.
Others who show potentialities
are Art Smejkal (6-3) of Lake
Villa, Ill. David Neilson (6-3%)
of Aiken, Jack Hufford (5-8%) of
Rossville, Ind., who transferred
from Purdue last season and was
consequently ineligible for varsity
ball, Delance Poston (6-7) of
Johnsonville, "Tom" Collins (6-4)
of Mullins, Jack Neely (6-1) of
Columbia, Tommy Tarleton (5-11)
of Columbia, Ray Trewhella (6-3)
of Palmer, Mich., and Bob Peter
son of Hammond, Ind.
The basketball schedule for the
'52-'53 season is as follows:
Dec. 6-Newberry, here
Dec. 11-Georgia, there
Dec. 12-Georgia Tech, there
Dec. 15-Richmond, here
