Basket] Wallace Starts At Forward By Lewis Cromer Sports Writer One of the main cogs in the hard wood attack of the Carolina Game cocks this year promises to be a six foot, four-inch gentleman from the Blue Grass state. The man in qui tion is Grady Wallace, a junior transfer from Pikeville Junior College located in Pikeville, Ken tucky. Last year, the young Wallace set the hardwoods on fire with a sizzling 32-point per game average over Pikeville's- 33-game regular season. The p!ay of Wallace and Bobby McCoy, also now at South Caro lina, was invaluable to Pikeville as the Kdntucky squad compiled a 28-5 season, winning the state championship for Coach Walter Hambrick. Hambrick also has been transplanted to USC, serving as assistant basketball coach to Coach Frank Johnson. With the addition of these three Pikeville men, Caro lina's ailing basketball forces hope to experience a resurgence. Wallace began his basketball career in the seventh grade of Betsy Lane High School in his home town of Mare Creek, Ken tucky. For four years he held down the pivot post and his senior year was elected team captain. Betsy Lane won the county tournament during Wallace's junior year under the captainship of Benny Fannin, now at South Carolina. The Kentuckian is majoring in physical education here and states that he "really likes Carolina." Grady especially comments on the friendliness shown by the student body. Regarding this year's bas ketball team, Wallace comments: "The team's looking good in prac tice, the hustle is really improving. I think we're in for a good year." Here's hoping that Grady's words will be prophetic for Coach John son's basketballers. There's one thing for certain, however, the Pikeville contingent could be a powerful factor in the "revamping" of the South Carolina basketball machine. Intramural Roundup Intramural athletics continued at a fast pace these past two weeks as badminton and golf reached ex citing climaxes and the much awaited football season and table tennis will begin shortly. Badminton ~,Badminton, which is a newcomer to intramural sports this year, proved quite a success as all fra ternities entered teams and created a spirited sensation as thrillers were featured in practically each set. Bob Royall, veteran intramural star, showed too much form and finesse as he completed all league play undefeated. Royall tripped Dick Nodden of SPE fraternity in lopsided contests, 15-1 and 15-2 to gain the finals. Buzzy Carmichael, also of SAE, had to fight for his life in the semi-finals with W. C. ,Cook of Phi Kappa Sigma, as the two men staged hair-raisers in each game. The scores were 15-8, 14-16, and 12-15. In the finals It was all Royall again as the seasoned per former brushed Carmichael aside' in straight games of 15-3 and 15-7. Golf The golf championship was won by Sigma Chi fraternity as they edged a hot Phi Sigma kappa team ~in close matches. SAE, who owned the golf crown from last year, was upended in the semi-finals by Phi ~Sigma Kappa. Football Intramural football, always a hotly contested sport on the cam pus, is slated to begin on Wednes day, November 30. SAE is the de fending champion. Table tennis will be reeled off during the week of December 5. PhI Sigma Kappa held the table tennis title last year. Lost On either Monday or Tues day before Thanksgiving Holi days two spiral notebooks, one containing immigration papers and personal letters from abroad, were left on a table in the hall of the Infir mary.

Mike Caskey tackles the Virginia full, back, Jim Bakhtiar, on the thirty yard line. At the time Carolina had a 21-14 lead. If Caskey had missed, Bakhtiar would have been in the open and the game would have gone into a tie. The score remained the same, giving Carolina its third victory of the year against six losses. This was Caskey's last game with the Gamecocks.

Game time is eight p. m., and the freshman squad will meet the Wofford freshmen in a pre liminary at six p. m. Head Coach Frank Johnson will send out a probable starting lineup of Grady Wallace and Art Smejkal, forwards, Lee Collins in the pivot, and Benny Fannin and Bob McCoy at guard positions-a height aver age of six feet, two inches. Collins is tall man at six feet, six inches. Sol Richardson, a guard, and Marshall Perkins, a sophomore for ward, have shown well in practice sessions and will be two of the stronger candidates for starting positions. Next week end, the Gamecocks move to North Carolina in the role of underdog, where they will be* bucking two tough Atlantic Coast Conference contenders, Duke in Durham on December 9, and UNC at Chapel Hill the following night.
