Returning are junior Ronnie Collins and senior Scotti Ward (starters last year), senior Bob Haney, junior Jimmy Collins, junior Bill Yarbrough and junior Terry Lucansky. The top sophs are John Gorsage and Dennis Ostaszewski.... ...... "Basketball" remarks that no wonder Bob Stevens left for Oklahoma. He left the cupboard bare. . . . It may be bare but it's not completely cleaned out. . . . The Fighting Gamecocks are fighting their hearts out and are amazing Chuck Noe while they are doing so. .. . Our swimming team is back again this season, thanks to the dedication of Coach Jimmy Ratliff. captain Joe Hu lings, and others who worked out last year. There was no team due to lack of numbers but this year the team is back again. In fact there is a meet today at the University pool. Several members of the team have broken school records in practice and three records have been broken in the meets. Support for the swimming team is just as important as sup port for football and basketball. . .. . Basketball Coach Chuck Noe spoke recently to the Press Club. Mr. Noe was active in basketball, baseball, and many groups at his alma mater, the University of Virginia, and he still came out with a 3.7 out of a possible 40. He advised the Press Club members to join clubs but to only join those groups to which they thought they could put some thing into. Mr. Noe said that the people who come here only to study do not get anything out fo college. Through these groups are found person to person relationships which is what the outside world is based on. He emphasized that ed ucation is far more important than athletics or anything else at college. A. It was interesting to see the trading going on between the major league clubs. More good name players are being traded off and in many cases it is a good idea to trade with this abandon. The American Football League has been doing this for the past two years and especially this year. The biggest change is on the Pittsburgh Pirates who, changed because their players were getting old although right now it seems like change for change's sake, only. Dick Stuart, Dick Groat, and Don Hoak have all departed. Stuart was drawing the ire of the fans though he did not talk big as he had earlier in his career and was improving all the time defensively. One man wrote to Joe L. Brown, general man ager of the Pirates to ask that his season tickets be can celled because Groat had been traded away. When Stuart departed a few days later, the man asked for his tickets back though no argument could make him keep them earlier. Groat was a big favorite but it was necessary to trade him away. Never an excellent shortstop, his range was slowly getting smaller and he is getting old. Don Hoak was the sparkplug of the team but he too was traded away along with two good relief pitchers - Olivo the 40-plus rookie and LeMabe. In return -- Gotay, Savage, Herrera, Cardwell, Schwall, and Pagliaroni. The trade will give the team more depth, but it may take them a while to rise. ...Looking through last year's official basketball statis tics: Art Whisnant finished fourth in the Conference in schoring behind three pretty good boys: Len Chappell, Art Heyman, Jeff Mullins, Bud Cronin was next, a long way down the list at No. 20. Cronin finished third in field goal shooting and third in free throw shooting. Ronnie Collins led the Conference at the charity stripe. . .. Billy Gambrell finished fifth in the nation in kickoff returns.

Ed was the 14th draft choice of Green Bay. The contract provides two bonuses, one no matter what and one if he makes the team. He said that he was glad to be chosen by the world champions as anyone would and declared that he had wanted to play pro football for five to ten years. Punky's job will be as a line backer. He will be put on outside short pass patterns or stunt in on pass rushes. Some of the time he may line up beside the end head up on the offensive end. He was wanted also b yDallas, San Diego, and a Canadian team. Punky was named to the second All-State team as a specialist line backer. Joe Prehodka, another Carolina defensive specialist had some com ments on Punky: "He's one of the roughest on the team. He was almost made for the position," and called Holler one of the two best linebackers in the ACC, namn ing Richard Lomas as the other. Joe also said, "He (Punky Hol ler) played with a broken wrist.
