Howard Not In His Osial
Talkeitive Mood Thursday
-* Jera- AIcher
Last week's Big Thursday game really put Carolina "ir
the headlines," so to speak, all the post-game throughoul
the Southland. After the clamor and confusion had subsided
newspapers far and wide carried the account of the Game
cocks' 26-6 trouncing of Clemsons' Tigers.
This column received several letters from sportswicitei.
commending Coach Giese and his charges for their perform
ance in the classic.
One sportswriter, Chauncy Durden, sports editor of th(
Richmond Times-Dispatch, had this to say in his columr
after the game:
"Clemson Coach Frank Howard had done a lot of talking
a pronounced failing of Howard-about South Carolina Coac
Warren Giese's failure to score on Clemson in the past tw(
years, or since Giese became the South Carolina coach
Howard calls Giese, "Geezey." "If that Geezey fella don'i
score on us this time, he'll be declared 'legally dead'." Thai
was in reference to the so-called "lifetime" contract Giese is
supposed to have at Carolina."
"It is doubtful that Howard was in his customary talk
ative mood late Thursday afternoon. Not after Giese's twice
beaten South Carolina squad clobbered Clemson's No. 1(
ranked squad which went into the Big Game at Columbih
with an unbeaten record. In his third duel with Howard
Giese scored 26 points-as many points as Clemson has score(
on Giese-coached South Carolina teams in the past threi
years."
TIDBITS
Looks like Carolina's Gamecocks are well on their wa3
toward claiming the "upset championship" of 1958. In fiv<
games this fall the Gamecocks have been rated underdogs bi
the oddsmQkers. They cooperated in losing to Army an
North Carolina, but they rose up to defeat one-touchdowr
favorites Duke, and Clemson. If the Gamecocks can continu(
their current momentum, they stand a chance of compilini
one of the better seasons in the school's history.... Carolina's
ace halfback Alex Hawkins, is leading his team in four statis
tical departments after five games, while halfback Kin
Dixon, quarterback Bobby Bunch and end Dough Hatcher lea(
the other three departments. Hawkins is tops in rushing
with 208; he leads in passing with five completions in 1(
attempts for 55 yards; his three pass receptions for 60 yards
top that department; and Hawkins in tops in punts returni
with six for 57 yards.
After an impressive showing during the first half of thi
1958 football season, Carolina's Gamecocks are pointing t<
several standout performers who should come into considera
tion for All-Atlantic Coast Conference teams this year. Lead
ing the list is Alex Hawkins, the Gamecocks' versatile half
back who is also a prime All-America possibility. Hawkini
was the key man in victories over Duke, Georgia and Clem
son. In the line tackle Ed Pitts, a junior from Clinton, ha.
been the spark plug with his sharp blocking and fierce defen
sive play. Head Coach Warren Giese has also been exception
ally pleased with performances of tackle Don Rogers, soph
omore guard Jake Bodkin, halfback King Dixon and fullbacl
John Saunders.
"Perhaps I'm over-featured
In the headlines stirring plea.
Perhaps I'm more important
Than a mere game ought to be.
But with all the sins I speak of,
And the list is quite a span,
I'm the soul of college spirit
And the maker of a man."

frq9m their 24-6 *in in last Week's
Big Thursda bout, travei to Col
lege Park, Waryland tomoirow to
do, battle with a highly touted
Terrapin team. -
For Coach Warren Giese, this
will be his first trip back to. Col
lege Park as the coach of an op
posing team. Giese was an assis
tant coach under Jim Tatum-at
Maryland before assuming his
present position as head coach
here at USC.
"We've had five tough games
thus far this season," says Coach
Giese, "and the team hasn't had
much time to catch its breath. Our
sixth game won't give us much
relief, either."
"Maryland has a much finer
team than their record shows,'
says Coach Giese. "They are a
big team with excellent personnel,
and probably the best defensive
team we've played this season."
Coach Tommy Mont's Terps, whc
finished with a 5-5 record last sea
son, have been defeated in their
last four outings against Clemson,
Texas A&M, North Carolina, and
Auburn, and ate anxious to break
this losing streak. Coach Mont
has 23 lettermen from last year's
squad, Including 14 linemen.
"Finest Line . . ."
After last week's meeting with
the Terps, Auburn's Coach Jordan
was quoted as saying, "Maryland
has the finest line we've faced this
season." Auburn won the outing
20-7.
The Terps reputedly have ter
rific depth at all line positions.
At the tackle positions, stand.
outs include Kurt Schwartz, Ed
Nickia, and Fred Cole.
At guard, the Terrapins 'have
what has been termed as the finest
combination in the ACC in the

form of Rodney Breedlove d

Barring last-Ininute injuries,
Coach Mdnt's backfield will be
operating at full strength for the
first time this season against
Carolina.
Halfbacks like Jim Joyce, Ted
Kershner, and John Forbes could
make the going rough for the
Gamecocks.
At the quarterback position,
Maryland has one of the finest
and most accurate passers In the
conference in Bob Rusevlyan. Bob
has a 53-per-cent average thus far
in ..the season, completing 68
passes out of 117.
Brother Act
Tomorrow's game will, figura
tively speaking, "pit brother
against brother." The Terrapins'
second unit quarterback, Dick
Scarbath, is the brother of one of
the Gamecocks' assistant coaches,
Jack Scarbath. Jack, who joined
Carolina's coaching staff last
year, played his college ball and
won his "All-American" honors
at the University of Maryland, too.
Trinity Program
In an effort to integrate fresh
men more easily into the College
community, Trinity freshmen will
live in all campus dormitories,
beginning this fall.
Junior Advisors will live in cen
trally located rooms in all dormi
tories.
One of the duties of the ap
pointed members of the Freshman
Executive Council will be to keep
the class well-informed.
Vacuum Tubes
A scientific apparatus maker has
developed a device that can detect
holes in vacuum tubes so small It
would take 120 years for a thim
bleful of air to leak through.
