Want, Need
tCC Win
Carolina's Gamecocks, I r e s h
-om a win over the University of
irginia, take off tomorrow for
linston-Salem, N o r t h Carolina,
here they will meet the Wake
orest Demon Deacons in Memo
al Coliseum.
In the previous meeting of the
vo squads in Columbia, the Deacs
alked off with a 74-53 victory
fer Coach Bob Stevens' Birds.
Ince that time, the Wakes have
roven their prowess over other
CC foes and continue to possess
ie potential for a conference
iampionship.
Big guns in the Deacon offensive
ttack this season have been cap
tin Dave Budd, a senior, and a
air of seasoned sophomores, Billy
acker and Len Chappell. Budd, a
.6 forward, led the Baptists in
:oring last season, and although
e has fallen off the mark a little
ince the 1959 campaign, he -still
)ntinues to be the mainstay of
oach "Bones" McKinney's strong
>rps.
Chappell Takes Over
Chappell pushed Budd out of the
ivot position early this season
nd has played remarkably well for
sophomore in the ACC. He was
iading freshman scorer last sea
on, and has performed with the
ase and versatility of a veteran
ius far.
Measuring o n 1 y 5-10 hasn't
andicapped soph g u a r d Billy
'acker, as the plucky little play
iaker has been on the receiving
nd of many a compliment by
oach McKinney this year. Packer
i a perfect example of the finest
ophomore contingent e v e r as
embled at t h e Baptist school,
round which the current team is
eing built. As the second -leading
oint maker for the Baby Deacons
ast year, Packer also won the
dmiration of Wake Forest fans
vith his slick ball-handling and
Iribbling.
One of the most underated play
,rs on the quintet is senior forward
jeorge Ritchie. At an even six
'eet, he competes with the biggest
>f men, and is especially effective
>n defensive maneuvers. He was
he number two man on the scoring
Nheel last year and hit on 100 of
L20 free throws. His specialty is
t deadly outside jump shot.
Employ Fast Break
Billy Packer's back court partner
as senior Charlie Forte, a 6-0 guard
who loves to run and gets many
sn opportunity to do so with Wake
F~orest's quick offense. The fast
break is often employed by Mc
Kinney, but he relies mainly on a
fast-moving precision g a m e in
which the players take only the
good shots.
The Gamecocks a r e currently
being led by sophomore Art Whis
nant and senior forward Mike Cal
lahan, both averaging over 17
points a game. Callahan is also
high on the list of ACC rebound
ers. Guard Ronnie Johnson has
also caught fire in recent weeks,
hitting 22 points against Furman
a few weeks ago.
The tilt should prove to be a
high-scoring o n e , as the Birds
rank as the conference's number
one team in offense with an aver
age of 72.8 points a game, while
the Deacs are not far behind with
a 66.6 mark. The Roosters have
managed 1,381 points this season,
while the Demon Deacons are over
the 1,000 mark, about 100 points
off the pace set by the Carolinians.
