The gamecock. (Columbia, S.C.) 1908-2006, March 02, 1962, Page Page Six, Image 6

Just because it's spring and football and basketball a
behind us, there is no reason that we should go into 01
collective shells until next fall. In the past, Carolina, knov
as a "Suitcase U" in certain uncultured parts of the stal
has acquired a reputation for allowing its spirit to defla
like a punctured balloon when warm weather comes.
This should not happen any more, for this has bed
a very productive year for USC in this "spirit department
Coaches Bass and Stevens have parlayed flashy squal
and unbounded enthusiasm for their jobs into an almo
universal feeling that Carolina has indeed got somethii
to shout about.
YEA, TIGERS
This increasing enthusiasm played quite a promine
part in certain 21-14, 86-74, and 87-81 Gamecock victori
over some anthropoids from the hills. There is no reasi
that fervent rooting cannot continue to help USC assE
its natural superiority over the Cowboys of the Uplan<
in other ways as well as football and basketball.
These triumphs were well-earned, mainly on the ps
of the participants, but also with the hoarse help of mal
spectators. Are we going to let this growing "Caroli:
feeling" diminish to almost nothing because in the sprir
a young University's fancy turns to other things?
DIAMOND AND CINDERS
It's not hard to find sports that need our cheers in t
spring. Coach Joe Grugan's baseball nine is reputedly mu
improved with addition of transfers and returning playE
like leading hitter Charlie Williams, and will be playing b
worthy of the support of the fans.
Racing around at the Roundhouse will also be a varsi
track squad that could be one of the strongest in t
school's history, as well as a group of fleet freshmen th
can out do their "older brothers" in some respects. Crow
at track meets in the past have been fairly good, but
large Carolina delegation at the State and ACC meets,
be held here this year, would help the Gamecocks i
mensely.
DON'T MATTER, EH?
The inevitable argument is brought up by some intE
ested party. "It really doesn't matter," states this a
knowing soul, "those boys would perform just as well
there were only a few fans watching." Don't you believe
for one minute, buddy!
I saw a living refutation of this theory in the rece:
ATO-KA Intramural basketball game. Trailing nine poin
going into the final period, the ATO fans started a rallyii
cry that soon rose to such proportions that the playe
caught fire. Fighting tooth and nail, they scrambled ba<
on pure hustle to win 37-35. It makes quite a differenc
friend.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
This sort of roar from the sidelines helped make 01
football and basketball teams great upon occasions tlh
year. This same sort of effort would go a long way towa
giving us successful seasons in spring sports and a winnii
athletic program as a whole.
Spirit such as this has helped us take three out of thr<
from Clemson this year. With you and me and everyoj
else cheering them on, our spring athletes can contini
this trend. Personally, 'I like beating Clemson in anythin
