by..
Monday started out to be a normal day for all of us. We
made those early morning classes despite a hard weekend,
and if we lived in Preston or were interested in seeing
Sigma Nu win the Campus Flag Football Championship,
then we probably stood on Davis Field and cheered for our
team. The sun shone most of the (lay, but the biting wind
made walking out-of-doors a little unpleasant. Yes, it
seemed like just a normal December Day with a week and a
half left before Christmas vacation, but you know it turned
out to be a little out of the ordinary.
It all started a little after six in the evening. I had just
finished dinner, and feeling a bit reluctant to rush into that
favorite pastime of students called studying. I wandered
over to the Carolina Field House. It was "just as dark and
gloomy, as it always is when there is nobody there to shake
the walls with boistrous cheering. A few players had come
out to practice a little early to throw a few at the basket
before the serious work began, while other disinterested
looking individuals milled about the scorer's table.
As I tramped around the
walkway in the direction of
the scorer's table, I noticed
a rather distinguished look
ing gentleman standing on
the court. As I drew closer,
I realized that it was the
President of the University,
Dr. Thomas F. Jones. Yes,
the President of the Univer
sity had come to pay a visit
to a team which lately seems
to have made a hit with
everybody. Soon Coach Noe
appeared and began intro
ducing some of the players "WE'RE GOING WIN"
to )r. Jones. While President Jones chatted with Noe and
the ballplayers, his young son and daughter dribbled a
basketball up and down the walkway.
Soon other people began to pour in through the doors
of the Field House and find places for themselves in the
stands facing the players' bench. Noe called his team in to
the bench, and then introduced each one of them to Presi
dent Jones. Shortly thereafter practice began.
It seemed to be just an ordinary practice with Coach
Noe going over some of the strategy for the Furman game.
As he talked, people continued to wander in and find them
selves seats. Soon Noe beckoned to the crowd of almost
two hundred to come and sit behind the players' bench.
What followed will probably be long remembered by those
of us that were there. On the court before us was a man
who has given his life to coaching. He has had some great
teams and he will have more in the future, and he talked to
us as no other coach ever has or ever could.
Chuck Noe is the most sincere person in the world, and
when he says that he will give you a winner, he means just
that. He did not talk in ter'ms of winning alone on Monday
night, but in terms of what we as students can (do for the
athletic program at South Carolina. It is our hollering and
shouting that can spur a team on to victory. We must not
be front-runners who follow the team just wvhen they are
winning, but we must give the boys our lungs and hearts
even in defeat.
Coach Noe briefly introduced each one of his players to
the people assembled. He told just what each boy's capabili
ties wvere and why he wanted him on his team (OUR
TEAM). "All of our, boys are good boys," says Noe. "They

With Edwin Breazeale putting
pressure on opposing backs, Den
nis Davis was able to break
up many offensive threats with
his great defensive play in the
secondary. The boys from Seven
averaged four interceptions per
game.
Zone 7 should be heralded for
their efforts this year. It was
hard work and desire that
brought the Campus Champion
ship to a team that may have
been the best ever in the history
of Intramural Flag Football.
Congratulations to the Magnifi
cent "7."
Of The Week
The selection of Ronnie as
the outstanding Gamecock-of
the-week is well justified.
Against Georgia, Collins put
37 points through the hoop to
lead his mates to a 77-60 vic
tory over the Bulldogs. He
also played a fine defensive
game and was the second lead
ing rebounder with 10.
This past Tuesday, Ronnie
hit 12-18 from the field to pace
the Cocks to a hard - earned
45-32 victory over state rival
Furman. Collins consistently
found a "hot hand" from his
favorite corner position, and
proceeded to shoot at an amaz
ing field goal percentage.
Also this week The State
named 'mim as their outstand
ing player in the state. With
G7 points against Georgia and
Furman, Ronnie well deserves
this honor, and the Gamecocks
Sports Staff is proud to pre
sent Ronnie Collins as its first
"Gamerooster" of the week.
