South!" as several in the crowd attempted to urge the throng tc march on the girls' quadrangle. The procession, instead, wended its way to Davis Field again for a final round of cheering in suppori of the football team, concluding with the Alma Mater.

The 61st meeting of these two schools will be seen by more peo ple than ever before in history, since 50 TV stations will carry the action to six Southern states. With hopes of making up for what could be their worst season since 1942, the Gamecocks will at tempt to knock off ten-point favorite Clemson for the 23rd time. If past performances are any indication of the future, the game will go to the school that wants it the most, not the team with the better won-lost record. Should South Carolina win, the victory would surely be placed among the all-time great USC triumphs such as the 1958 effort when Clemson's Sugar Bowl team came into the contest unbeaten in Blue Key Dance The annual Carolina - Clemson Dance will be held tonight at the Columbia Hotel from 8 to 12 p.m., Keith Elliott, B l u e K e president, announced this week.

The last Carolina win was in 1961 when Billy Gambrell led the 21-14 attack over the Tigers. Since the start of the rivalry in 1896 there have been many stars including the late Steve Wadiak, Johnny Grambling, Alex Hawkins and Billy Gambrell. Clemson fans are not soon to forget Fred Cone, Banks McFadden, Harvey White and Joel Wells. These are heroic figures from the past. Who will shine tomor row? C a r o 1 i n a Stadium will once again be the scene of pretty girls wearing expensive clothing, red and white uniforms, airplanes slowly flying over the field, and loud-mouthed wise guys placed in all the sections. The speakers will blare forth "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Carolina Stadium," and hopes will rise. We just can't get beat. 1We-Come Story Page 9 --Gaecock& Staf/ Photo by Bridge im Shelley, chairman of the annual phy to Betty Master., president of adeU, president of Phi Delta Beta. in the drive which netted 322 pints me reerd.
