Virginia Next Bird Track, Florida ReI During the Easter holidays the i Thirteenth Annual Florida Relays a were held in Gainesville at Uni versity of Florida's Graham Field. t South Carolina's track team, fif teen strong, gave a good account of itself although the total points they scored were small. The team ran against some of the toughest competition in the country in the j Relays. There were six new rec- a ords set during the course of the 1 day. Dave Sime, the brilliant dash a star of Duke University, was voted the most outstanding athlete of the t day and was awarded the Kearney Raybun Cup. This cup, named i after two Florida boys who were killed during World War II, is kept t for only one year and returned each year for the new winner. Sime i proved himself worthy of the f award by being the only double winner of the afternoon. He broke the 100-yard dash 'record by run ning a fast time of 9.5 and won the broad jump with a leap of 23 feet, %s inch. These two events, plus points for running good legs on the relay teams, gave Sime a total of 12% points. Other individual Relay records that were broken during the day were as follows: Earl Poucher, University of Florida, pole vaulted 14 feet, 6 inches; Joe May, Louis iana State, threw the javelin 213 feet, 10% inches; and Jim Beatty, University of North Carolina, ran a 9:19.8 in the two-mile run. The two-mile and mile relay records were set by Maryland and Louis iana State, respectively. The most outstanding perform ance of the day by the South Caro lina team was turned in by the distance medley relay team. The i elay team, composed of Larry Patrick, Jesse A r a n t, Chuck Hughes, and Allen Inabinet, came in fourth place behind the fine re lay teams from Tennessee, N. C. State, and North Carolina. Other fine performances by the Game cocks were Gene Berry's fifth place in the broad jump, Joe Silas' fifth place in the discus throw, Tom Col Road Trip L In Diamond The Gamecock baseball team split four games on a road trip to the Atlantic Coast Conference's two northernmost schools during spring vacation to remain in con tention for ACC honors with a 3-2 con ference record. The GAmnecocks split a double header with Maryland Saturday, March 31, at College Park and then divided games with Virginia April 3 2 and 3. At Maryland, a single game scheduled Friday was postponed a day because of cold weather which turned colder by Saturday. John Cooley, senior righthander from Swansea, stopped the Terps on four hits for his fourth straight win in the opener, 6-1, as he re mnained Coach Ted Petoskey's most dependable pitcher. Cooley fanned six and walked none. Maryland came back to win by an identical score in the second as fastballer George Gaffney stopped the Birds on five hits. Both games #ene seven innings. Right fielder Dave Ketchum slapped three singles in as many at bats in the opener and added a fourth hit in the second game to top the Gamecock hitting. Buddy Nidiffer, currently the ACC's top batter, collected three singles. The speedy center fielder twice beat out infield taps. Doubles by Frank Ellerbe and Larry Jewell were the only extra base blows by Carolina. Sophomore righthander Murphy Lemmon started the second game 4gnd pitched four good innings be fore running into control trouble in t h e fifth. Petoskey expressed satisfaction with Lemmon's show ing in his first starting assign ment. At Virginia, the first game was delayed 30 mInutes at the start by a light rain. With outfielders Nidiffer, Ketchum and Jim Jarrett sparking the attack, the Game cocks blasted out an 11-7 victory. Southpaw Leon Norton, another sophomore, settled down after a shaky start, in which VIrginia scored five runs the first three innings, to go the distance for his first victory. Jarrett slugged a two-run homer in the second and added a single. th,am belted a singe and triple nen Run In ays, Lose ns' fifth place in the high jump, nd the fifth place finish of the nile relay team. The mile relay earn was composed of George Chomas, Don Whetstone, Fred 1oberts, and Sonny Wilcher. Two Carolina boys, Dick Bar ulski and Conway Snipes, were tampered by bad luck. Bartuiski, isually a fine point man in the avelin, was bothered by a broken irm he received in the spring foot all game and Snipes was vaulting ine until his pole broke on him in nidair. There is no declared winner of he Relays, but University of .lorida had the most total points n the meet with Louisiana State, )uke, and Maryland following in hat order. During the trip back to school, he Gamecocks had a stiff workout it Jacksonville Beach. Sonny Wil -her looked especially good in run iing the 440-yard dash in 49 see )nds, while Chuck Hughes and Al en Inabinet ran well in the dis :ance races. Last Saturday in Athens, Geor ,ia, University of Georgia tripped :he Gamecocks in a triangular neet, 81%1/ to 70. Citadel finished -hird in the meet. Georgia's strong rield team provided the margin of he victory, as Bob Davis and Bill Duckworth set new Georgia records in the discus throw and the javelit brow.

Pete Stokes S In Twin Win Little Pete Stokes, the smallesi man on the roster, got his firsi :hance to play and made the most af it as he highlighted a double. header victory over The Citadel last Saturday at Veterans Hospital rield. The Ganmecocks won 9-6 and 6-3. A utility infielder whose total playing time had consisted of a single pinch-hitting attempt irl which he struck out, Stokes weni into action when third basemnai Bunky Shore suffered a slightly sprained ankle and had The Cita :Jel's pitching staff pleading for mercy before the wind died down. Pete, listed on the registrar's roll as Carl Bernard, gave warning with a walk and double in the first came after entering in the fifth lining, and then slammed a 360 root home run with two on in the second game and followed that with i bases-loaded triple.

State Tomorr Gameec Champi The Carolina baseballers, fresh from a double win over the Cita del, will resume their struggle for first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference by engaging the power ful Wake Forest club here this afternoon at Veterans Hospital field at 2:30 p. m. The Birds will engage another toughie tomorrow when North Carolina State invades the Birds' roost at 2 p. m. Wake Forest is the defending NCAA champion and is expected to come up with another power house this season. State should provide plenty of competition for the Deacons though. The Demon Deacons come to Columbia sporting the recent Dixie Classic baseball championship. N. C. State finished third in the meet. Coach Ted Petoskey has not in dicated who he will start against the power ladened Deacon squad. Many will remember last year's surprising win over the champions and R. 0. Huggins' knuckleball which had Wake Forest baffled. Surprising enough this was one of the few wins for the Birds all year and also one of the few losses for the North Carolinians. Petoskey could go with Billy Frierson, the Eddie Lopat of the ACC. Frierson has a good knuckle ball and throws a lot of soft stuff which may he just wvhat would be needed to quieten the bats of the visitors. On the other hand, John Hundreds of p)eop)le were ex pected at the ninth annual Caro lina Folk Festival, which was held last week end on the campus of the University of North Caro lina. About 400 entertainers, colorfully dressed individuals and group)s, paraded across the Me morial Hall stage on both eve nings for a fast-moving variety showv of fiddling, banjo picking, ballad singing and square and clog dancing. -The Daily Tar Heel tarts, Stars Over Citadel - John Cooley went the distance in the 9-6 opener to take his fifth wvin against one loss. Only two Citadel runs were earned. Bob Cross stammed a two-run homer in the opener and Buddy Nidiffer contributed a triple and single and Frank Ellerbe two singles. Nidiffer also sprained an ankle and was forced to miss the second game along with Shore. Pitcher Murphy Lemmon replaced Nidiffer. Billy Frierson, a .stumpy left hander from Summerton, fed the Cadets a diet of knuckle balls and they couldn't get it out of the dirt. Gamecock infielders had 18 assista in the seven-inning contest. Following Stokes in the hitting in the second game was Larry .Jewvell with a single and double in three at b)ats.
