HOWDY'S 711 MAIN STREET Aowf ~Serinag LU NCH ES AND DINNERS 55c - 75c HAMBURGERS 2 for 35c SUBMARINES 50c Open On Sundtay t a Brown Wins Pole Vault At Florida BY MIKE EIDSON Roland Brown, rapidly Improv ing vaulter from Allendale, used the challenging factors of adverse weather and a strange pole to climb to a personal best of 14'8" and take the Florida Relays crown from the head of teammate Woody Chapman who won the event in 1964. The dark-haired upstart broke his pole at a low height, but using the pole of N. C. State'3 Stuart Korn, Brown continued to clear the standards through the rainy weather of the afternoon. The win was the first major chain pionship for Brown, and it was a big one to capture. Sophomore Art Swarts almost brought the Gamecocks a second victory in the field events as he was beaten by only three feet in the discus. Swarts made his in itial varsity performance a good one with a second-place throw of 167'. .1. It. Wilburn, all-conference end on the Gamecock football ean, performed equally as well for the track team by sending out a 193' throw in the javelin, vood enough for fourth place. ,hampion and one second-place finisher in last Saturday's Florida Relays among their own entries in the Carolina State-Record Re lays. Senior Roland Brown of Sycamore, S. C., won the Florida Relays pole vault, and sophomore Art Swarts was second in the dis Cu s. Swarts wasted no time in breaking the school record in his first varsity meet. Swarts took second place in last Saturday's Florida Relays with a throw of 167 feet. 31., inches, eclipsing by nearly 15 feet the Gamecock rec ord of 152 feet, 10 inches set in 1963 by Billy Nies. Brown hadn't cleared better than 14 feet until he broke his own pole last Saturday at the Florida Relays and borrowed a heavier pole from a teammate. The Sycamore, S.

However, two relay teams, the 410-relay and the mile-relay, placed, finishing fifth and fourth, respectively, against the fast com petition met at Florida. Fulton Dukes from Orangeburg and three Yankees, Eddie Son nonfeld from New Jersey, John Hemmer from New York, and Mike McGuinness from New Jer sey, claimed a fifth in the 440-re lay in the time of 42.6. Sonnonfeld, Bland Addison, Mc Guinness, and Bob Crombie broke the school record in the mile-relay with a 3:17.8 clocking, but still finished fourth. Addison had a fine .18.8 split for the best time of the four on the relay. The freshman team had spotty success in the three events they en- V tered. The spring medley team coiposed o f Jinimmy Whitt, Sammy Gambrell, Bill Madden, and M i ke Eidson ART SWARTS finished fourth in the race, but almost tol)pled the old meet rec ord which was easily broken by the first three teams across the line. Their time was a highly re spectable 3:31.7 which should come down with competitive ex perience. The freshman mile relay team, rallied by fast quarters from Whitt and Bob Harris, closed fast to finish fifth in the event. Jimmy Wingo and Gambrell both quali ard Chapman ran the third. In the first freshman hundred ever held at the Florida Relays, Wingo and Gambrell both quali fied for the finals. They both got off to lousy starts in the finals ending in a tie for sixth. The next competition for the Gamecock thinclads will be at the Carolina State-Record Relays in Columbia on Saturday afternoon April 3. Several Olympic per formers will (lot the entry forms of teams in the strongest relay field ever. Such names as Michi gan, Colgate, Brown, Maryland, and North Carolina should pro vide fireworks at the beautiful Rex Enright Athletic Center, and anyone even mildly interested in athletics should take this oppor tunity to see the best action. she likes be f Old Spice. ltd Spice... ye lotion for oon . . . she's vay it is rd Spice Locker TERRY I If by chance you were listening li to WNOK last Friday night g around 8:15, and if your tuner s happened to stray ever so slightly t off the mark to WCAU, Philadel phia, you heard the voice of our own Frank McGuire. Coach Mc Guire was guest on a warm-up show prior to the NBA playoff game between the 76er's and the Royals. Besides speculations on the game at hand, Carolina was mentioned. The following night Mc(,uire and assistant Ken Stib ler attended the finals of the New, Jeisey high school tournament in Atlantic City.
