What does it take to make an All-American? The trutf
is that no one really knows. It's a combination of things, in
tangibles, and mainly a high-scoring average.
Jerry Smith was an All-American and he came in t<
Columbia and did poorly for the second year in a row. Ar
Heyman and Jeff Mullins could not do well in the first hal
against USC but made up for it in the second half since th
whole game is counted.
However, we feel that the entire Carolina team shoul
be put in nomination for All-American team. This nomina
tion is put forth seriously although their chances of makinj
it are not too good. The entire first team: Ward, Yarbrough
Haney, and Ronnie and Jimmy Collins.
No team can try harder and no team can act more as
team or with more desire than the never-say-die Gamecock
What brought the nomination on was the Duke game bu
the boys have been trying hard all year.
For Coach of the Year it would have to be Chuck No
(while we are thinking of all-Americas). This nominatio
may not seem serious, especially as Coach Noe was disai
pointed with the game ("We should have beat them") bu
the statement has been made.
... Twelve players have been nominated for the All-America
check list. They are Ron Bonham and Tom Thacker, Cir
cinnati; Gary Bradds, Ohio State; Art Heyman, Duke; Bi
Bradley, Princeton; Mel Counts, Oregon State; Jerry Harlc
ness, Loyola (Chicago); Barry Kramer, NYU; Eddie Mile;
Seattle; Cotton Nash, Kentucky; Jimmy Rayl, Indiana; an
Rod Thorn, West Virginia.
... Jim Beatty says that the mile run is sheer agony. "Yo
wish you could trip or fall or get a cramp or something tha
would give you an excuse to stop."
. . . Cassius Clay has shown himself to be one of the mos
remarkable fighters in history and boxing is beginning t
rise again. Boxing has spread to other sports. There wer
always fights on the hockey rinks. Each club has a "police
man" to make sure that the other team stays in line.
Sam Huff piled on Jim Taylor so often during the NF:
championship game that an intrigued promoter offered ther
$2,000 each to fight. They turned it down.
Now there is fighting in basketball. Wilt Chamberlai
and Bob Ferry, and also Woody Sauldsberry were amidst th
recent brawling.
. A New York psychiatrist explains the fans:
"In a ball park a man may call the players and umpire
just about anything within the bounds of decency. Some
times these elastic limits are stretched, broken.
"John Doe works in a factory under a harsh superinter
dent who is a sadist. At work, Doe has to take it or quil
He is browbeaten. He takes it.
"At the game he gives vent to his feelings. All the venor
he would have thrown at his boss he heaves at the player
and men in blue.
"Joe Blow has a shrew for a wife and is henpecked be
yond human endurance. So he comes out and hurls vitupera
tion at the players, who are the captive receivers in plac
of his wife."
He says that this is true of fans all over the world a
it must be since it is simple human nature.
... Pro football is currently being rocked by a scandal. Prc
tests have been made that a pro footballer cannot throw
game or shave points. It is not easy to do but it is ver
possible.
A few offside or man-in
motion penalties would do it,WE
or a bad pass, intercepted;
or a defensive halfback let
ting his man get behind him
intentionally. In any case,
this would not be to lose the $
game but would still be il
legal. This investigation is
necessary and perhaps a ban alte.
on certain forms of business
interests, such as bars. This SRE IHFE
would hold true in the future. CL LW A
As the ban on the spitball,
it would let those currently Nn'
holding business interests,
not looked on too highly, keep
them.

"S
rosh Play With Four Men
BY TOM HUNTER
Sports Writer
"There's more than one way of getting attention" would be a good
)tto for our freshman basketball team. Saturday the Biddies were play- "
g the Duke frehmen and doing well against the undefeated squad.
trolina was trailing by only a point, 44-43, with 15 minutes remaining.
it as time wore on the Biddies suddenly found themselves short of
rsonnel, When the fourth of the eight-man team fouled out. For the
maining four minutes USC shifted into a 2-2 zone on defense and of
ne. Coach Morrison commented, "It worked pretty good."
The shorter and out-manned freshmen were behind by four points at
e time our four-man team took the floor but kept slipping back until
ake finally won by 11 points, 90-81.
It was an amusing thing to watch, 5 on 4, and the fans enjoyed it,
it no more than the Duke players who chuckled themselves right into
eir seventh victory against no defeats.
Here are two of the leading
members of the 1962-63 Biddies.
On the right is Billy Woofter. the
frosh's leading scorer. On the left
is Billy Henderson.
USC high scorers for the game were Jerry White, playing in his
cond ball game, scored 25 points and Dwane Smith hit for 15. Bill
oofter remained the team's leading scorer on a 16-point performance,
inging his average to 14.4.
The game was over but there was still a lot to happen before our
ayers were to settle down for a well-deserved rest. On the way to the
otel both their cars were involved in a 16-car crashup. Fortunately no
ie was hurt. It seems they were traveling around a downhill curve doing
out 30 mph when the cars hit ice and skidded for some 60-75 yards
to six or seven cars already piled up. Later five more cars joined in
r sliding broadside into the mass of automobiles. The police arrived
ortly and everything seemed under control; and least it was before the
nbulance made its grand entrance by charging down the hill out of
ntrol right into the police car.
The freshmen now stand 2-6 for the season with five more games re
aining to be played.
