Carolina's 'Gamecocks sc4
within a period of three minut
quarter Saturday afternoon
-,Virginia Cavaliers in Charlott
An estimated crowd of 12,000
spectators saw the Gamecocks hold
the Cavaliers scoreless for the firsi
time in 64 games. It was in 194(
that Pennsylvania defeated Vir.
ginia 40 to 0. Since that time the
Virginians have scored in every
ball game until they met the
Gamecocks Saturday.
The Gamecocks were not too im
pressive during the first quarter
of play. They let the CavalierR
cAplete passes and their offense
was held to a minimum. However,
in the second period of play Johnny
Gramling completed a 41-yard
heave to end Spec Granger down
to the Virginia 24. Mike Caskey,
the unheralded halfback from
Bennettsville, came through for
a nifty touchdown run on the next
play.
Exactly two minutes and 40
seconds later, Captain Gene Wil
son took a handoff from Quarter
back Gramling, slipped through
the right side of the Virginia line,
and- galloped 69 yards to score,
completely untouched during the
jaunt. The first kick for extra
point never got under way. Carl
Brazell converted the only extra
point of the game.
It was Caskey again in a beau
tiful 45-yard run to the Virginia
20 in the waning moments of the
second quarter that set up the
third and final Gamecock tally.
*.rold Lewis, sub quarterback
from Aynor, threw to diminutive
Carl Brazell on the ten, who took
the ball and with some fancy
footwork completely fooled a Vir
ginia defender and went over
standing up. Brazell was hit by a
would-be pass defender just prior
to catching the touchdown pass,
but gained enough momentum to
stay on his feet and receive the
ball.
Statistically, the Gamecocks
were obviously in command
throughout the contest, and Rex
Enright, head coach at the Univer
sity, apparently went overboard
to hold down the score. He sub
stituted freely in the second half
and gave both Harold Lewis and
Bobby Shealy, second and third
string quarterbacks respectively,
a chance to show their ability.
Mike Caskey was the leading
ground gainer of the day for the
Gamecocks as he ran six times for
a 15.1 average. Captain WVilson
averaged 11.7 times in seven car
ries on the strength of his 69-yard
run, and Jeepers Jeffcoat aver
aged 9.6 in three carries.
Gramling continued to spark the
offensive play of the Gamecocks
as he completed 5 of 12 passes for
71 yards. For the season, he has
hit on 21 of 39 passes for an
bgcuracy mark of 54 per cent.
This was the Gamecocks second
wvin of the season as compared
with one loss. They bowed to the
/')efforts of the Duke Blue Devils
in the opener of the season, 20-7,
and whipped the Bulldogs from
the Citadel, 25-0.
After gaining the fairly easy
win over the Virginians, the Game
cocks look forward to the Furman
meeting in Carolina Stadium to
morrow after-noon at 2:30 P.M.

The superb performance of the
Carolina forward wall Saturday
in their 19-0 victory over Virginia
in Charlottesville can be attrib
uted partly to the coaching of
hefid line coach Hank Bartos.

during the afternoon. Coach
Bartos came to the university in
1946 and has been here since that
time.
Coach Bartos graduated from
the university of North Carolina
in 1938. He was an All-Southern
guard at North Carolina, and
played one year of professional
football with the Washington Red
skins in 1949.
He entered the coaching profes
sion at North Carolina the year
following his graduation and re
mained there for one year. He
has also coached at. Wake Forest
from 1941-1942.
Bori May 20, 1913 in New York

Says Bass

Staff Reporter
Our choice selections of last
week didn't pan out too well. We S
connected on 13 games, had six d
losers and a tie. That made the (
week's percentage .675 and our
record for the season now stands n
at 28 % right and nine and a half t,
wrong for a .760 average. With h
the season heading for its peak,
we'll take a peek at this week's
schedule.
We'll pick Clemson again-to
lose. Miami looked good last week
against Baylor in losing by a J
touchdown. This game is to be
played tonight. 4
Another game tonight should
find powerful UCLA defeating
Wisconsin in one of the week's
best games.
Missouri over SMU in another
tight one tonight. This might
make our average take another F
dip. a
Alabama over Tulsa. The Crim- d
son Tide finally won last week
and should make its first meeting a
with Tulsa another victory.
O
Army to romp over Dartmouth.
Navy did last week and the
Cadets have to keep up their
prestige. c
Villanova over Boston College. C
We've missed twice with the Wild- F
cats, but they can't lose them all s
-or can they ?
VMI over Citadel in case any
one is interested. This has the
niakings of a very uninteresting t
game. V
Duke over Purdue in a good c
intersectional battle. n
George Washington over Vir
ginia. Virginia's having an off- t
year. If too many like this back- t
fire, this column will be having o
an off-week.
Maryland over Georgia. The t
Terps are just too good. i
Michigan State to keep their t
streak going with TCU this week's t
victim. e
Michigan over Iowa. Can't let
the average slip too much. The E
Wolverines are classy. g
Mississippi State over upstart b
Auburn. Jackie Parker will put t
the Plainsmen back in their Ii
places. b
Vanderbilt over Mississippi. q
Both teams lost last week, but a
it's time for Vandy to win.
Ohio State over Illinois in bang- ~
up affair in the Big Ten. h
Pennsylvania to top California
in another big intersectional battle.
Tennessee to get its first win a
with Chattanooga the victim, a
Texas over Oklahoma in the e
Southwest's big game of the day. 5

Brazell Top
Scorer In
ACC League
Carl Brazell, the diminutive
speedster from Columbia, has
taken over the scoring lead in the
Atlantic Coast Conference. Brazell
wvas tied last week for the lead,
)ut 8cored one touchdown and an
extra point in Saturday's Virginia
came to boost his season's total to
:5 points.
Duke s halfback Red Smith
umped from third to second in
he standings by scoring one
ouchdown and kicking two extra
>oints against Tennessee Satur
lay. He now has 21 points. Duke
lefeated Tennessee 21-7.
Brazell was used solely as a
safety to return punts as a fresh
man last year but has quickly
arisen to the role of "dangerous"
ror this year's Gamecocks. He
scored the lone touchdown against
Duke in the opener, and has
scored in every contest since.
The running of Brazell plus the
passing of Johnny Gramling and
the presence of Gene Wilson and
rullback Bill Wohrman in the
lineup make the Gamecocks a
:langerous scoring threat. Gram
ling has been a dangerous man
throughout his Gamecock career,
Brazell is widely becoming known
ror his breakaway running and
Wohrman is publicized for his
blocking ability.
