While prognosticators set their scores and pre-game tension soars,
Carolina makes ready for another Big Thursday holiday with its thrills,
its excitement and its adventures.
Preparations have been completed in most instances.
.Maxcy Brotherhood again furnished an effigy of the Gamecock which
tonight will reign over an exhausted Tiger at the Pep Rally and parade.
And this year the Bird will be seated in a magnificent chariot, also supplied
by the Brotherhood.
The traditional stuffed Tiger has been readliedl for the pyre by McBryde
Brotherhood and the torch will be applied tonight at ceremon'ies on the
State House grounds.
This year desecrators managed to leave another trail, this time in red
and black paints, on the edge of campus while night vigils protected the
Horseshoe and Green Street areas.
Bleachers in Carolina Stadium have been completed and the stage is all
set for tomorrow when new fashions will blossom in full. And with the
exception of buying the Lady a white Chrysanthemum with Garnet and
Black streamers, most individuals are set for the 2 p.m. kickoff to open
battle with the Tigers.
Already, little Steven Berry, one-year-old son of Junior Varsity Coach
and Mrs. Jess Berry appears to have his Tigers under control, that is,
with the aid of a healthy stick.
So tonight and tomorrow morning the toll of the chapel bell will be
heard over the campus, students' hearts will beat a little faster and there
will be only one topic of conversation-Big Thursday.
