Wallace ? To this "Cookie"~ was
qluick to answer, "Grady is the
best I've seen. He's got all the
shots and is a great team man."
Speaking of shots, Pericola was
asked what his favorite shot was
-"The one that goes in the
basket." He said grinningly.
Pericola doesn't havo any special
hobby other than," . . .girls, no
they are more of a past time."
"Cookie" was approached by
numerous schools in the North
and South before he decided to
come to Carolina. He had even
considered an appointment to West
Point. It is the good fortune of
South Carolinians that "Cookie"
came southward.

SEASON
7ame Is '(
sion this past Monday, Student
Council voted unanimously to set
aside tomorrow evening as "Grady
Wallace Night" in honor of USC's
good will ambassador of the hard
woods.
The game will be the regular
season finale for both clubs and
will mark the basketball "swan
song" for both Grady Wallace and
Bobby McCoy here at Carolina.
Council voted to recommend
to athletic director Rex En
right- that Wallace's jersey
(number 42) be permanently
retired in honor of the Game
cocks' high-acoring forward.
They also voted that Student
Body President David White
present Wallace with a plaque
so worded that Wallace would
ever be reminded that the Caro
lina student body deeply ap
preciated his basketball prowess
and gentlemanly conduct which
were employed as he represented
USC in athletic contests during
his two years here.
Wallace will be awarded the
most valuable player award by
Parker Evatt, president of the
Pep Club. Evatt will also be
present a plaque to Coach Frank
Johnson which will remain at the
University and will bear the name
of the most valuable basketball
player for each season as chosen
by the fans at the home games.
Wallace carries a 30.48 per
game scoring average into the
Clemson game and needs to fatten
his 762 point total to insure the
national scoring crown. At least
four competitors are within a
single point of his average.
The Gamecocks will be out to
nail down the sixth place slot
in the ACC standings. The
Birds have a conference record
of 4-9 while the Tigers are 3-10
in league play. The Birds are
14-11 overall. Clemson defeated
the locals in an earlier game
played in "the hills," 79-71.
