The gamecock. (Columbia, S.C.) 1908-2006, October 05, 1956, Page Page Six, Image 6
After reading your article in The Gamecock, I firmly
agreed that the cheering was disgraceful at the Wofford
USC ball game.
I have come from a high school that had a wonderful
cheering section and a great spirit. Several of my friends
that graduated with me at my high school were surprised
at the little cheering of a college as big as USC.
As I am a freshman and not a cheerleader, I know that
I can not get into the Pep Club. But I would like to help
in making the University have a great spirit and building a
great cheering section.
In your article, you listed several students helping the
Pep Club. I would like to be included in that group as a
helper.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me.
Thank you. I enjoyed your article and I comend the
cheerleaders for the wonderful job that they are doing and
for what they are working for.

BOSSELER, SCARNECCHIA, AND HEAT
Crushing Don Bosseler and Sam Scarnecchia the magi
cian proved to be fatal in the Orange Bowl stadium last Fri
day night. Coach Andy Gustafson's proteges were nothing
short of magnificient during the course of the evening but
it was left to an ace other than the Hurricanes to put the
finishing touches on the valient Gamecocks, the heat and
humidity. Coach Giese's men were very noticeably affected
and it was undoubtably a factor in Miami's favor.
Let's not take anything away from the Floridians though.
They have a fine team. An organization with plenty of
power deception, and football finess. They will be no weak
sister for anyone invading their lair.
As for the Gamecocks, they did a very good job under the
conditions they faced. They had numerous men hurt during
the evening which affected their performance. Penalties
proved fatal at times, once when they were deep in Miami
territory in the second quarter. Had the Birds scored then,
the outcome could have been different.
SECOND UNIT SHARP
The entire team played good football but they were
definitely not up to the peak performance of the previous
week. The second unit, quarterbacked by Jack Hall, proved
to be the more effective during the night. In Hall's backfield
was the Bird's only man to reach the goal. Heyward King
took a qjuick pitchout from Hall and scooted 10 yards for
the score. The Gamecocks got possession of the ball at this
time when an alert Weems Baskin intercepted a Scarnecchia
pass. The determined 'Chickens' scored in just five plays
with King showing the way. I might add too that this
scoring drive was made against Miami's starting eleven.
BATTLE OF CAROLINA'S
Our football forces are now faced with the battle of the
Carolinas. And what a battle it should be! A rumor is
circ:ulating now that Jim Tatum has been practicing for
this game for the past 10 or 12 days, completely disregarding
p)ractice for the powerful "Sooners" from Oklahoma. 'Tis
a known fact that 'Sunny' Jim wants the South Carolina
game bad and will probably go to any extremes to get it.
It is my opinion that the Tar Heels will be just as tough
as Duke and probably more so due to the keen rivalry of the
two schools in the past and now the intensity of the battle
with coach and pupil opposing one another. The question
arises now, just who was the coach at Maryland and who
was the pupil. Tomorrow we shall see.
QUOTES AND MIS-QUOTES
The Miami trip was one long to remember. A bit of
everything happened, interesting p)eople were met, seen, and
heard.
The kids were there at the gates, waiting and pleading.
"Got an extra ticket, mister?"
One 10 year 01(d, who showed great promise, begged an
extra cardboard from a passerby. After the benefactor was
lost in the crowd, the kid had the ticket in the air, "Get yer
ticket, here! Five bucks--only half a ten, Get yer extra
ticket!"
Where the stands stretched high up' the humidl heat
riled up tempers, and a blue-shirted man with curly brown
hair andl a bloody gash under his eye was rushed away by
the police.
"He was from South Carolina," the guy protested to the
police. "And he slugged me--he had no business slugging
me-makes me mad-so I slugged him back, and you pick
me up. How about that?"
Miami Writer
Cites U.S. C.
Enthusiasm
University of South Carolina
students were praised by Miami
sports writer Haines Colbert for
their undying spirit displayed in
the Orange bowl last Friday
night. Haines' comment is as
follows:
"The South Carolina students
and alumni, apparently still
fired up from their teams' sur
prise victory over Duke last
week, provided the one exciting
note.
They completely drowned out
the Miami partisans in the
crowd of 44,184-a record for
an opening night.
A trumpet player in a clown's
suit woold sound a strident
charge and the Souith Caro
linians would explode into foot
stamping and cheelrs."
Sophomore King Dixon, though
held to 17 yards by Miami in
Friday night's game, continues to
lead South Carolina's yardage
makers with 160 yards rushing,
23 passing and a total offense
mark of 183 yards.
