C9 ?oOSTfR Clemson Coach Pee Wee Greenfield won his first Stat Track Title, Bob Crombie continued his streak of wins i the 880 and Coach Weems Baskin all but cried as torreni of rain almost washed away the Rex Enright Center. Despite the deluge of uninvited and unwanted pre cipitation the 37th South Carolina State Track Meet went along according to schedule. Some defending cham pions failed to live up to past performances, while imany new faces stole the show, thus making the meet as big a success as could be expected under the adverse con ditions. The meet favorite was a guy named Crombie, who d4 feated two-time State Champion Dave Tyler of Furman i the half-mile. Crombie and Tyler dogged each other throug the first quarter and then ran shoulder to shoulder aroun the turn and down the back stretch. It appeared that th race would be settled in the last 100 yards with both boy kicking, until the heady Australian jumped Tyler on th turn, picked up six yards and held it to the tape. Quartermiler Mike McGuinness won his specialty, the 440, in fine style passing two men after coming off the turn in the third position. Mike's ti,me was a very fast 48.5, when you consider the conditions. The Jersey speedster also placed second in the 220, nipping defend ing champ, Jimmy Wynn, at the wire. The most courageous performance of the meet was b Carolina's broad-jumper Woody Chapman. Woody badly ir jured his ankle at Clemson in the meet a week before and hi condition was very questionable. Friday he placed third i the trials behind two Clemson men. Cater Leland of Clemso appeared to have the event won with a 23%/ jump, bu Chapman on his second try in the finals roared down th runway and with a tremendous effort soared over the 2V foot mark to tie Leland. Cater could not better his jum and had to take second because of Chapman's better secon jump. Lanky sophomore hurler Dave Gatch won both hur dle events. His time in the highs was a creditable 15 seconds. In the intermediates Dave caught O'Cain of Clemson two yards from the tape. Neil Atkinson placed fourth in the highs and passed two men in the last twenty yards to take third in the intermediates. Gatch shared honors with Cater Leland of Clemson for the Outstanding Performer in the meet. Friday afternoon was good track weather and Carolin track fans had a good look at future Gamecock performer A strong freshman named Bob Taylor, who is from Toront< Canada, won both the 880 and 440, setting a new record i the 440 of 48.9. He also anchored the winning Biddie mil relay team. Another Carolina Biddie Bob Turner placed third in the 100 and won the 220 with a terrific finishing kick. He was teamed up with Eddie Sonnerfeld in the sprints, which gives Carolina a strong duo for next year. Sonnen feld ran the best leg in the mile relay passing two men to give Taylor a three-yard lead. Two Biddie field event men, Art Swarts and Don Browni gave a good indication of what the Gamecocks can expet in the discus and javelin next year. Swarts got off a 155 foot throw, breaking the State Freshman Record. Brown threw over 203 feet to set a new Frosh Record. The Clemson track team jubilantly carried Coach Greenfield down the track after winning their first State Title. One Clemson runner commented that next year would probably be the same, but he was quickly answered by a Carolina aman who said, "The only prob ably is that we will probably score 100 points next year.

By the time of the final event, both of the track's first two lanes had disappeared under water. UNSTOPPABLE But neither the weather nor the Gamecocks could stop Clem son, who, while only equalling Carolina in first places, amassed numerous seconds, thirds, and a fourth to sweep the champion ship. USC did, however, gain some individual honors which shared the limelight with the Clemson victory. The most exciting race of the day came when Carolina's Bob ises Hamilton 's Tennis Play School and played on the school team there for two years. Currently, Mike has a wide va riety of interests, ranging from swimming and tennis to Sherri Smith. Says Strahley of the 1964 USC team, "We improved, and we'll get better." Lamar Hamilton is a 20-year old Junior from North Charleston, majoring in commercial art, who won more points in competition this year than any other Carolina player. "He's a good one," commented McClain. "He's played well and given it all he had every time. If he's not on, he won't win, but if he's on, he'll beat the heck out of you. Against N. C. State, he won in straight sets and thoroughly trounced his opponent. "Lamar also has really come into his own as a doubles player," continued the coach. "He is now one of the best if not the best doubles player we have, because he hits the ball and then rushes the net, which is what you should do in playing doubles." Lamar Hamilton himself voiced his dissatisfaction with the sea son, but he had praise for his coach and teammates. "I know we should have beaten the College of Charleston, N. C. State, and Wake Forest. We lacked the confidence necessary to win. If we could have just won one match, that would have got ten us rolling." Hamilton, who has been play ing only three years, summed things up on an optimistic note. "We'll win some next year."
