1JCarolina meet came around.
The Gamecocks will be goir
dual win.
The Tar Heels lost their first
dual meet, 83%-53%, to Princeton
last Monday, but have outscored
the Gamecocks both in the Florida
Relays and ACC indoor meet ear
lier this season, although by close
margins. Princeton reputedly has
one of the strongest teams in the
East.
North Carolina has no indivi
dua6 standouts like Duke's Joel
Shaf le who performed here last
week but their strength lies in
overall depth.
Comparisons between the sum
maries of the North Carolina
Princeton meet and the South
Carolina-Duke running indicate a
close meet with the best chances
for the Birds again resting in the
running events.
Charlie Morris of the Tar Heels
threw the discus 153 feet and
pushed the shot 49 feet 11% inches
against Princeton, marks that
haven't been approached this year
by South Carolina's entries in
those events. Gene Berry's second
place broad jump against Duke
was better by two inches than the
22 feet 1 inch turned in by Charlie
Yarborough in winning the event
against Princeton. The high jump
was won in the N. C.-Princeton
meet with a leap of 10% inches,
about the same as Jack Martin
and Jim Summer have been jump
ing for the Gamecocks.
Running Favors Birds
ereas the Gamecocks won
eight out of nine firsts in the run
ning events against Duke, the Tar
Heels didn't take a single first in
the running events against Prince
ton. But a check with the win
ning times show that the Game
cocks wouldn't have won a
single event against Princeton
either. In both meets the winning
time was 9.9 for the 100-yard
(lash. In every other event except
the 120-yard high hurdles, which
Duke's Joel Shankle won here,
Princeton registered a better time
than USC did.
Gene Berry has been the number
one scorer for the Gamecocks in
the field events, scoring regularly
in the broad jump and javelin.
Top runners have been Tommy
Woodlee in the 100 and 220, Sonny
Wilcher in the 440, Freddy Roberts
in the 880, and Captain Gan Mc
Bride in the mile and two-mile.
The mile relay team of Wilcher,
Roberts, Leon Cunningham, and
Bobby Drawdy has won in both
of USC's dual meets this year.
Don Whetstone is the top hurdler.
1,500 Last Week
Last week's 70-61 victory over
Duke was witnessed by a crowd
estimated at 1,500 and another
lat( turnout is expected tomor
row. The Gamecocks had defeated
Presbyterian in an earlier meet,
The50 all-round brilliance of
Duke's Shankle and the near
sweep of the running events by
the Gamecocks highlighted the
Duke meet.
Shankle scored 24 points with
firsts in the high jump, broad
jump, pole vault, and high hurdles,
second In the low hurdles and third
in the discus.
Whetstone defeated Shankle in
the 220-yard lows to push Carolina
Into fge lead, going into the meet
ending mile relay which the
Gamecocks won to clinch the vic
tory.

Block C In it]i
With 'Secre
At 3:30 p.m. Wednesday after
noon. a belt line was formed all
the way around the Horseshoe and
24 Carolina athletes ran down the
line amid popping leather to open
the annual Block C Club initiation.
The belt line was followed by
an egg-catching cont-st. Active
Block C members dropped eggs out
of the third floor windows of the
Block C House, Ten. 16, and the
neophytes stood in front on the
sidewalks with open mouths for
targets. This lasted until all the
initiates had caught at least one
egg.
The egg-catching was followed
by egg-throwing. The new letter
men were each given a supply of
eggs and at a given signal, began
throwing at each other.
Next came the electric chair and
electric cage ordeals. The first
consisted of a wired-up chair with
each initiate receiving a jolt.
The electric cage was a box-like I
cage with round openings at each
end and three wires suspended in
the middle from the top. Two men
were sent in at a time, facing each
other, and one had to cross over
the other to get out. The "juice"
was turned on when they tangled
in the middle of the low-topped
cage.
At 5 o'clock there was a break,
followed by a trip to the Caro
lina Hunt Club in the swamps
of the Wateree River for a "secret
session," the highlight of the day.
Tie initiation ended with a party
