FRODUC Wale Forest TopsCarolina The Demon Deacons of Wake Forest had to rally to go ahead and then make use of the deep freeze to get an 84-75 decision from the South Carolina Game cocks. It. was the final regular season game for the Gamecocks, who gave an excellent account of them selves. The Deacons were trailing by four points with 6:44 to go, but Dickie Hemric, their great center, scored twice from under the bas ket and tied It up with 5:51 left. Lee Collins fouled out with five minutes left and was replaced by Sam Smith at center. The Deacons took the lead again, but it was narrowed to 72-70. Lowell Davis, a Wake Forest forward, ended the scoring with a shot from the foul circle that was in the air when the final whistle blew. Wake Forest had a 61.3 per cent accuracy in the first half as compared with 46.3 for the Game cocks. For the game, Wake had 47.7 and Carolina 42.4. The Gamecocks outrebounded the highly favored visitors 46 to 39. Hemric got 15 and Joe Smith got 13. Hemric, the nation's fourth leading scorer going into the game with a 28.7 average, got 27 against the Gamecocks. Davis, who was the sensation of the first half with 16, totaled 23 for the eve ning. Woody Preston led the Game cock scoring with 18 points. Lee Collins, who is leading the team in scoring, was close behind with 17. The two guards, Tom Hof ferth and Benny Fannin, had 16 and 13, respectively. LETTERS (Continued from page 2) the rest. They gave some here, and took some there; Pulling here, and pushing her there. They versed her in manners And told her what to say. They, she faced the painters Who painted her quite gay. They told her this and showed her that, They pressed her curls and placed her hat; They taught her how to walk the isle, And how to weep and cry in style; And when they were all done with her, She did surpass the amateur. As for the groom, he did the same; He changed himself in all but name. He donned himself in dressy show; That it were he, you'd hardly know. He grabbed the ring and his bouquet, And lost no time upon the way. Not long after that happy day, The one in which they were so gay, As truths of life came creep ing through, They settled down to life anew. The paint had faded with the, time And clear she wasn't so sub lime, And from above the mortal loft Descended soon the magic doff. What magic themes play with the Heart From pretty themes wrought into art! They play the field, then enter Only to leave and start again. The very immortality Soon fades into reality. There is no guiding discipline In strumming the Heart's violin. We take a chance, we make a guess And hope the music played is best. I wish there was some way in which to encourage others to expose their favorite "enlight ments" for others to enjoy as well. I should like looking for ward to finding other such articles of interest. Gerhard Chambers, from the thanght ofJet .rflt&erard ; Is Good; Depth Mackie Prickett, the South Car olina quarterback who led the Atlantic Coast Conference in pass ing and total offense last fall, evidently hasn't forgotten how he did it. * In the first scrimmage of winter practice last week end he directed his team to three touchdowns, scoring two personally on "keeper" plays. Prickett completed seven out of 10 passes and handled the split-T option better than ever. Prickett is expected to get plenty of competition for his posi tion from Jack Hall, a transfer from Georgia Tech. Walter Ollic, who saw some action last fall, and freshmen Sammy Vickers of Macon, Ga., and Bobby Bunch of Summerville, are other candidates for the quarterback position. Hugh Bell will be at center, but finding reserve strength at that position will be a problem. Bell has seen plenty of action behind All-Atlantic Coast Leon Cunningham the past two seasons and is considered an ample re placement for his predecessor. He is the only letterman center returning, however, so his relief will have to come from inexperi enced men. Candidates for the position in clude Harry Crowley, junior from Fort Pierce, Fla., Charlie John son, freshman from Greenville, Dwight Keith, Jr., freshman from Atlanta, Ga., and Bill Bullard, sophomore from Charlotte, N. C. Coach Rex Enright hopes that one of these men will "blossom out" in winter practice and ease the anxiety., Pole Vaulter One of the best freshman track prospects enrolled at Carolina is Conway Snipes. He comes from Atlanta, Ga. In high school he pole vaulted 12 feet, eight. inches. The South Carolina state varsity record is 13 feet, only four inches higher. 40RFE LUCK WHAT'S THIS?
