ing Gamecocks hope to stage a
repeat performance of their local
home game tomorrow night
against arch rival Clemson.
Fans should jam the Field
House after the Wake Forest up
set, but they must remember
Carolina's hot and cold efforts
this year. True to form the Game
cocks followed the stirring Wake
victory with probably their worst
exhibition of the season at Rich
mond last Thursday. However, it
cannot be expected that a team
with such limited personnel match
Wthe Deacon upset, which may
prove to be the Gamecocks' finest
performances of the season.
It must be noted, however, that

It's this writer's opinion that
Jim is headed for a berth on the
All-ACC team. His late season
spurt, and his complete dominence
of Wake Forest's Ronnie Watts
last week make Foxie a good bet
for "all" laurels.
Coach McGuire will probably
send a starting five of Fox, Al
Salvadori, John Schroeder, Earl
Lovelace and C h a r 1 ie Farrell
against the Tigers.
Jim Finnegan and John Gorsage
will be top reserves, while Lyn
Burkholder, Bruce Wells and Dave
Murrell will also be available.
Coach Bobby Roberts will coun

Sutherland 6-4; Buddy Benedict
5-8; Hank Channell and either Joe

for the Farmers.

SIDELINES
BY ERNIE TRUBIANO
Sports Editor
Next fall the University will increase its enrollment by
one-third; new dormitories are in the process and parking
lots are underway. Where are these new students going to
sit during the future(?) years before a new home is built
for our upcoming basketball powerhouse? This, however, is
a well publicized problem.
The start of the intramural basketball program brings
to light another problem.
Tell me where these same new students are going to find
the facilities for physical recreation when it is virtually im
po8sible for the present number of students to enjoy such
advantages.
Members of the intramural basketball ;quads have ex
perienced the frustration of Carolina's limited facilities, I'm
sure. The antiquated gymnasium is about to fall down and
go boom. It should have been torn down long ago. Yet, it
still stands, and furthermore it is still used by classes in
physical education. It is used until almost closing time by the
Physical Education Department, while the Field House is
occupied in the afternoon with the varsity practice and at
night by the freshmen.
How many hours does this leave the students seeking to
play basketball? Not many!
My point then is how can the University dare to accept
such a ridiculous number of new entrants for next fall when
they do not have adequate facilities at the present to ac
commodate the student body?
If you have waited patiently for physical education
classes or varsity teams to finish before you could step on
the court then you know what I am talking about.
We, of The Gamecock Staff, would like to hear from you.
We welcome letters to the editor concerning the matter and
any solution to alleviate the situation. But please limit your
letters to this specific problem.
We know that you can not get a seat during basketball
games . . . that it takes a half hour to get from campus to
the Stadium after a football game . . . that you found a for
eign particle in your food . . . that the book store gave you
a quarter for a book no longer in use . . . that there is not a
building on campus large enough to accommodate the student
body . . . that you have been restricted for being four minutes
late . . . that your grades would have been higher had they
been based on a six-point scale . . . that Saturday classes are
a nuisance . . . that fraternity houses should be off campus
...that parking meter tickets are only one dollar uptown
while two dollars for "struggling college students" . . . but
wait . . . at least the parking problem will be solved by the
new lots on Blossom Street . . . Oh, y.es, but where will the
2,500 new students put their cars? . . . such a viscious circle
...and all this digression . . . and we're still waiting in line
to shoot at a basket.
many times.
Crombie said, 'I'm looking for
ward to opening the season *
against good competition. Florida 1 II
State, Georgia Tech and perhaps
Miami will be at Montgomery, but NO SOWN 0
the competition will probably
come strongest from the anal
deep team for NortheastpLouisi
ana State. My closest competition C' axNe da.
will probably come from North
east's fine distance runner from
England, Malcolm Robinson."
Robinson won the mile at Mont
gomery last year and he placed
high at the recent indcor meet at /
Philadelphia. McGuinness' compe
tition will also be from Northeast,
although Florida State should
have a fast 600-yard man running.
Coach Weenms Baskin will be the
official referee at the meet, which
is run coordinately with the
Southeastern Conference Indoor
Meet.
