The Citadel with wins in the 50

The Gamecocks are hampered
this season by inexperience. Mid

Sets a New
Cage Record
Forward Joe Smith, captain of the
Carolina basketball team, set a
new single game record against
Georgia Tech last Saturday night
when he sank 12 free throws. The
old record of 11 was set by Jimmy
Slaughter against Duke in the
1950-51 season. Smith's 20 at
tempts from the foul line may be
another record.
Slaughter holds the season mark
of 125 free throws as well as the
records for most points in one
game with 37 against Furman in
1950-51, most points in one season
with 569 in 1950-51, most points
in career, 1,512 from 1947 to 1951,
best average in points per game
with 22.8 in 1950-51, and most
goals in one season with 222 in
1950-51. The 6' 11" former Game
cock great is now playing textile
ball in the Grepnville area with
Duncan Mills.
Captain Joe Smith was leading
scorer for the 1952-53 basketball
team withI 377 p)oints and an aver
age of 1 5.7 per game.
