c Sports of the future will be granted charters of corpora b, tion-a fad or a fact? About the only obstacle confronting S this hypothetical statement is the final letter of grant issuedn by the state. According to the latest figures from the National Syndi cate of Athletic Scandals, Inc., the capital accumulation9 seems to have reached its required level. All that is missings is a few finishing touches on the National Hockey League, ( and the whole realm of college and professional sports will f be fairly well covered. t #V ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIPS From a standpoint of college sports, the situation is far beyond the threshold. Ninety-nine percent of all boys a on athletic teams in college have been acquired through some scholarship program. Beneficial to the student as a means of obtaining a college education, it sometimes is detrimental to the team of which he is a member. i Some who obtain this financial aid play for the love of v the sport-others just to finish college. When a player gets 1 the attitude that he can do as he pleases, he should be 1< dropped from the team and also his scholarship bill. In ti some schools this individual will attend practice occasionally, i: but will seldom exert enough effort to earn the pay he gets for one five-cent pack of Blue Horse paper. When he does not get to play in any games, he feels that the coach be lieves him to be inferior to the other players-so he goes out and sets a bad example for the entire squad-fr SCANDALS Beginning with the "Saturday Night Cock Fight" in i front of Joe's Livery Stable to the hiring of professional "bookies" to operate "tote" boards, the art of gambling has 1 emerged as one of the main sources of revenue for several t organizations. And starting with a mere quarter het on the outcome of a game between two spectators, the present-day athletic scandals have arisen. Now players are receiving t their pay two-fold-scholarships and also through bribes s to intentionally throw games. t In the past three years it has been discovered that out- s, standing, and even some All-America ball players have either become ill beforte a contest, or have played in such d a manner as to almost forfeit the game. As the situation is . now, when your team wins a game, you don't know whether they actually won it or bought it. PROFESSIONAL Professional ball is arranged on a slightly different basis. When you become a professional, your service turns into a job and a means of supporting a family, etc. Players are hand picked and are then drafted, each receiving sizable contract offers. Once a veteran in the professional field of sports, you then begin to calculate your own contract (pro ostanding adlevensoml-mrc alpaeshv avi ner yoa e nostht orfit hout gam e Ashe and ians Professional btacts are wounl rig ly dient srts Whn you thecom sa "Wroesnl your srviet? ts itoue jobrad of mports tof suortingu loo faiy eht.

Newcomers' Will Obtain Vain Duties With the beginning of Spring, mies all the beauties of this new ason-the beauty of love, the eauty of birds' melodies, and for )me, the beauty and joy of the an ual football spring practice. On February 12 the Round [ouse practice field will cordially reet some 80 or more boys in an ttempt to roughly estimate next -ason's strength and possibilities. oach Marvin Bass states that the irst 10 days of this amicable ex rcise will be devoted mainly to ie fundamentals of football, with ery little team play involved. "We ,ill concentrate mostly on group ,ork in an attempt to bring the ising sophomores along for the efensive unit that has been lanned," he replied. Seniors will be excused from the ntire practice, and some of the !ttermen will take it easy for the irst 10 days. However, any senior ,ho feels that he is being over >oked or excluded by this "privi ge," it will probably meet with we approval of the coaching staff he desires to participate. There are some very capable )phomores, red-shirts, and trans 2rs that are being considered for rtain duties-all that remains to einforce these plans is a volatile howing during spring practice. Weekly scrimmage will be held i Carolina Stadium, and on March the four-week "Bass Personality ourse" will present the results of weir training in the annual Intra quad Game. The Serotoma Club, long with the Block "C" Club and ,ie Carolina student body, will ponsor the game to whip up en iusiasm among students, local Lipporters and the entire state. 'rocceds from this event will be onated to the Carolina Student ,oan Fund. rcopiu 0 How woul 0 more education Q Euroi 0 Should the have the pa censor cam * ews papers There's actually more rich-flavor leaf in L&M than even in some un filtered cigarettes.You get more body in the blend, mor,e flavor in = the smoke, more taste through the filter.

Sometimes hard to build, it can be easily lost if it is not ex pressed in the right way. Carolina spirit is really build ing at the moment, in the midst of an upgrowth that began during the football season and overflowed in to the Field House to cheer and watch. Coach Bob Stevens' "gung ho" Gamecocks cut loose. Coach S t e v e n s' comments, "We have acquired in the space of one season a reputation for spirit at home games that has been talked about all over the Atlantic Coast Conference. "We really appreciate the way the fans have gotten behind us, both the team and the coaching staff. You can see the difference in the way the boys play when they come home." We've got the start of a move ment that could develop into a real CAROLINA feeling, some thing that would reflect enormous I credit upon the school and those who attend it. Are we to lose this now?

It is rather minor league, or to put it stronger, extremely childish. It could have very serious reper cussions too. How would you feel if whatever you threw resulted in a player injury, a technical foul against Carolina, or even the for feiting of the game to the oppon ent by the referee. This is not the only way some of the MEN AND WOMEN OF CAROLINA show that they are not quite ready to be here. The introduction of the opposing team's players is not for the purpose of 4 giving the fans a better chance to boo him. It is a courtesy extended and intended to increase the pleas ure and knowledge of the person watching the game. These incidents reflect back on our school, our players, and our mentality. Also, it doesn't help our boys when they venture to foreign schools whose players have had to endure that garbage in the Field House. I'll make a slight deal with you fans.
