Thus, Grady became the first Gamecock player in history to make the honored squad. . Wallace, the nation's top scorer, was placed on the first team with Wilt "The Stilt" Chamberlain of Kansas, Legnie Rosenbluth of North Carolina, "Hot Rod" Hund ley of West Virginia, and Chet "The Jet" Forte of Columbia. Chamberlain led the balloting for first team honors, thereby cap turing the honorary captaincy of the squad. South Carolina Dominance Thus, with Wallace bringing honors to USC and the state of South Carolina, he became the third player of a South Carolina team to make All-American in the past five years. Frank Selvy made the squad two years in succession as did Darrell Floyd, both of whom played their collegiate ball at Furman. Wallace continued the dominance with his appearance on the "dream" team. In addition to continuing a hold in the ranks of All-America players, Grady, by leading the.na tion in scoring, made it possible for South Carolina to claim the nation's best scorer for the fifth consecutive year. Wallace leads the nation with a 81.0 average for 26 games. Season's Honors Wallace also garnered other honors over the season as he was selected on the Associated Press All-Conference team, the ACC sports writers team, was pro claimed an All-America basket baller in every sense of the word by the South Carolina House of Representatives, led the voting for the all-state poll taken by The Hornet of Furman University, and was chosen Most Valuable Player 1 on the Gamecock squad for the 1956-57 season by South Carolina fans. The lean Kentuckian also was one of a trio of stars who scored over 50 points in a single game ENGLISHMEN USE HUll JJSC Deb By Herbert Bryant Special Writer A University debate team showed up well in a match with a team from Britain on Thursday, Feb. 28, in Russell House As sembly Room. The Carolina team was com posed of Kermit King and Pete Martin, who debated affirma tively on the query: Resolved: That the United States should dis conitinue direct economic aid to foreign countries. Meirion Daviem from the Uni veruity College of North Wales and Gareth Morgan from the Uni versity of Bristol represented England in the debate. They are representatives sent to this coun try by the Institute of Interna tipnal Education. The two were chosen as a result of competition with their fellow countrymen. Although there was no final de cision, it was the general opinion that the University debaters had a slight edge, according to Dr. M. G. Christophersen, University de bate coach. But, as Dr. (Christoph ersen pointed out it was evident the British debaters had not prac tiead dehating the sunMact as often Voted erican p Scorer t Team during the past season. He scored 54 points against Georgia prior t< Christmas, while Chamberlain pushed 52 through the hoop is the first game of the season foi Kansas' Jayhawks and Hundley scored 54 later in the season. South Dominates Field Three of the five members on the first team were from "south. ern" schools, thus telling the na tion that Dixie basketball is the tops in the country. On the second unit, there were three players fromi the South, and the third team had two from that popular region of the country. The eyes of the nation were on Wallace yesterday as the Game cocks met the powerful Duke Blue Devils in the matinee attraction of the ACC tournament at Raleigh. North Carolina's Tar Heels, un defeated in 26 games, were top seeded in the tourney. First results of the tournament were not avail able at press-time. Second and Third Teams On the UP second team were Baylor of Seattle, Tyra of Louis ville, Krebs of SMU, Thompson of Iowa State and Gibbon of Missis sippi. Selected on the third unit were Dees of Indiana, Howard of Ohio, Rodgers of Temple, Cox of Ken tucky, and Ashmore of Mis sissippi State. Temporary Class Suspension Given To Male Student A male student in the School of Business Administration was given a grade of "0" on a quiz and was temporarily suspended from class after confessing to a charge of violating the honor code, according to Phil Moody, chair man of the Honor Council. The student admitted the in fraction before Honor Council Wednesday. The charge was placed upon the individual after a professor un covered the evidence while correct ing the student's paper. The in fraction occurred during a math hour quiz. In addition to giving the grade of "0" and susending the stu dent from the course for four suc cessive class sessions, Honor Council also placed a record of the case in its file, Moody said. rORous R EMARKS, J05 at ers Shb as King and Altman had. "King and Altman did a good job and met their opposition very well," Dr. Christophersen said. An interesting feature of the debate was found in the differ ences in the techniques of the two teams. The British set out to amuse the audience. Each of them spent about ten minutes telling jokes and making amusing re marks before they began the ac tual debate. King and Altman, on the other hand, set out to propose the solution to the question, and, in doing so, tried to convince the audience that they were right. After the close of debate the audience was invited by Dr. Christophersen to ask the four de baters questions. Such questions as the one concerning socialized medicine, directed toward the British and others relating to the debate topic were asked. Dr. Curry of the history department congrat ulated the debaters on what he considered a fine job, but made the recommendation that possibly impromptu debating (that is, de bate on a subject chosen prior to the debate on which the debaters would not have previous time for preparation) be considered for next yer when British debaters again visit the campus.

Bryant and Student Body Presi dent Dave White appeared before the faculty during its meeting Wednesday afternoon to request the suspension of classes. Bryant and White's first preference for the class suspension was Friday, May 3. Their second preference was Thursday. Student Council Monday author ized Bryant and White to make the request for suspension of classes for May Day festivities. After considering that more classes meet on Monday, Wednes day and Friday than do on Tues day, Thursday and Saturday, the faculty decided to allow classes to be suspended on Thursday, accord ing to Dean of Faculty W. H. Call cott. In deciding on the day, the fac ulty also considered that many students would leave the campus on Thursday for the weekend If Friday classes were to be sus pended. Bryant stated that he urged the faculty to grant class suspension on Thursday in preference to Fri day because he felt that adequate time could not be given to the May Day event if the latter day were adopted. Pete Martin was appointed chairman of the cultural program ming and investigation committee. The committee was established last week to formulate a report on the possibility of obtaining a concert series for the University. Carolyn McClung and Bob Mc Nair were named as members of the committee.
