The Carolina baseball tean
reneged on its former 19-gami
losing streak by defeating Wash

the club as a whole, it meant thi
first victory in their first fou:
contests; for Coach Joe Grugan
it meant his first in the past 21
games.
John Coleman, former Drehei
and Clemson hurler, got the start

the "Generals" only two hits thi
entire afternoon, he struck ou
eight and walked three.
Laney Ruff started the Caro
lina attack with a single on Phi
Sharp's first pitch. Hoak Greine:

Gamecocks took the field. Botl
teams settled down to a game o
mostly defense, with the exceptioi
of several jaunty rallies by th<
"stick men."

The USC golf team, fresh from o
its 12-15 loss to Clemson last T
Tuesday, came back into the ACC S
race with a 19%/-7%/ victory over G
Virginia Monday at Forest Lake
Country Club. ti
Norman Flynn, the leading fi
Gamecock medalist, got off to a a
bright start with a 33 on the front t,
nine, but ran into trouble at the
end and finished with a 71. s
,Teaming with John Orr, who shot F
a 73, they scored nine points g
-against their opposing team. c
Jackie Seawell, who was rather t
t sluggish at the start, finished in s
-finer fashion with a 78. Jimmy v
Howell finished with a 78. The(
Seawell-Howell team tied 4%/-4%
with the Virginia golfers. c
d The highlight of the afternoon t
contest was an eagle by Bob Ger- s

S. shot a 73. Ron Scales (Maryland),
y who played in the number one
ke seat, shot a 76, so the odds seemed
to be in favor of the Terrapins.
?r If Jamieson and Scales had been
rs playing in the opposite positions,
:h then Seawell would have taken
d his twosome.
Coach Hambrick stated that
rr Carolina's losses to Clemson and
0. Maryland were due to the weak
ir ness of his third and fourth posi
!r tion. "It's not that Seawell and
nt Gerring turned in that poor a rec
in ord, but that the opposing teams'
r, number three and four men shot
Df better golf than their first and
second," said Coach Hambrick.
n- "We'll be getting into the hard
ve part of the schedule when we

er, Coach Hambrick. "We have some
th young but capable golfers - it'll
io just take some time."

c- Babcock at the reins as coach,
ed competed in the State Tournament
:s, that day. The Citadel was favored
p to take the title for the fourth
ie straight year, but the Gamecock
ir. foursome was trying for an upset.
ig Furman took the measure of the
n- USC Tennis team, outpointing the
it- Gamecocks, 6-2. Only Jack Hatch
ek and Gene Hlaynes could hit the
a victory column for the Birds.
Only 10 years ago, the sport
i't situation was rather unsettled. A
n- track team was being fielded for
~r. the first time since 1950, when a
in virtual "pick-up" USC squad won
ee the state title.
With only one experienced man
s- returning, the trackmen were not
et expected to be especially strong
ias they readied for their first
Ifn meet in over two years against
s- the arch-rival Tigers from Clem
hson.
"Pi Kappa Phi was the power in
Intramurals that year, winning
the basketball title over the In
dependent Rinky Dinks, 47-89.
The Pi Kaps also led in points
toward the All-Sports trophy.
The baseball team was readying
itself for a two-game invasion
from the hills of Clemson, and
was hoping its hitting would im
prove enough to support the fine
pitching the Birds have been
getting.
During that week, only ten
years ago, the Tennis team had
three matches scheduled, three
members of the USC boxing team
were going to the NCAA tourna
ment and a former Carolina tackle
had signed with the Los Angeles
Rams of the NFL.
That's the way things stood
here ten and twenty years ago.
Not much difference, eh? L.ook in
next week's "Gamecock" to find
out whether the track team won
the state title In '42, and beat
Clemson In '62, or whether Havi
lah Babcock's golfers won the
state championship twenty years
