The Gamecocks' sophomore dis cus star, Art Swarts, is expected to unseat two-time champion Dobbs of Clemson in that event, but Clemson's Avery Nelson will be heavily favored in both the broad jump and triple jump, based on 1965 performances. Furman's Frank Saier, who cleared 6' 7%" in the Carolina State-Record Relays, and The Citadel's Cal McCombs, who has gone 6-7, will be co-favorites in the high jump and Shannon Daw son of the Paladins will be strong in both hurdles events.

Soes. 9:30.-:0 Frs From The SIDELINES BY ERNIE TRUBIAN0 Sports Editor When Mike GrOsso siyned t pla,fy r USC rect-lntly, most enthusiasts sighed with relOe bUt few realized just what went into the recruitigyv of su,_h all athlete as th( 6-8 New Jersey star l>rospect. The "man behind the seeris," Assistant Coach Ken Stib ler tells of his traveling. sc1utin , aid r,cruitinrg in the honest and straightforward rmailier that makes him the personable man he is. Married and the father of four, Coach Stibler estirrates that he has been away from home approximately ninety (lays his first year as assistant to Frank McGuire. "This includes the entertainment of visiting prospects to the USC campus," he added. He explains the usual procedure. "The kid comes, we put him in a room, take him out to eat, and then set up an al>>oiritment with the dean of the school he is most inter ested in. Later the prospect is introduced to teachers in the department he has chosen. We have received fine supp>ort from the faculty in this respect." Stibler com mented. "Some of the guys on the squad, his future team mates, then take the boy to a ball game, a track meet, or out to the lake. We try to have him see as much of campus life as Possible." "Although it comes a little late for this year, the fact that (olumbia has been picked an All-American ('ity, should help us in the future." Asked about his irregular family life, Coach Stibler re plied, "As a stea<ly diet, frequent travel can be rough: and it's all a gamble, that's the funny part. However. I am pleased with our progress so far." Stibler came to USC with shining credentials. After serving as assistant to MeGuire at North Carolina. Stjibler was assistant at Montclair State Teachers. From 1956 until last spring he served as assistant varsity and head fresh man coach at Loy()la University of New Orleans, La. The New Jerse.v native. a former tennis pro, also coached varsity tennis at Lov(la. Just as concerned with the pre.sent Gamecocks. the coach wishes Jim F(x were eligible to play next year. Jim's a fine coachable young man-willing and determined, and never an excuser <>r complainer. F(oxie, in turn, said of the unheralded assistant. "I can see why a boy would find it hard to say no to a man like 'Coach Ken.' fNTRAiMURAfLS I Bill Free All-Star Basketball Game Thet Ind'-pend-tent A")Str-tok an ear, wl and were never headed as they defeatted the Fia ternity Al-Stas by a .57-42 mar gim.
