USC Ba Ends FI By RANDY IANEY Staff Writer The Gamecock baseballers con cluded fall workouts last week, and prospects appear good for a win ning team in this spring. Approximately 35 candidates turned out for practice, and several more are expected who were un able to practice due to football workouts. Returning from last year's 16-12 squad which finished fourth in con ference standings In a sound nucleus of seasoned veterans. Most promising, perhaps, from last year's squad, is catcher Dan Scarpa. Scarpa led USC batsmen with a hefty .344 clubbing average, and was named as starting catcher on the All-ACC team. Hurling to Scarpa will be senior lefty Loveard McMichael. The ace southpaw won seven games and lost only three last year, compiling an impressive 2.06 ERA. Backing McMichael on the mound staff will be veterans Les Evans and Eddie Chester. Used mostly in relief last season, both are expected to see more action A starters this year. Chester, a pepper-pill on and off the diamond, turned in a fine perform ance against Yale last season, and also hits very well for a pitcher. R o n n i e Lamb is expected to handle first-base duties, but was unable to participate in fall work outs due to football practice ses sions. Senior Joe Tonelli, second team All-ACC last season, returns at second base, and after impressive play in the fall workouts, promises another year of top caliber infield play. Joining Tonelli at the double play spot is senior shortstop Dave Mur rell. Murrell, although light with the stick, is an excellent glove man and should turn in some exciting play on the left side of the infield. Returning in the outfield are centerfield Bill Lamotte and re serves Dunnie Dunlap and Howie Brotherton. Lamotte, a senior, clouted a tenth - inning homer against Duke last season to give Indepdent Intramurals (Ed. Note-Due to the fact thai The Gamecock sports pages went to press a day early this week, we regrettably could not include the independent games.

Frank Partyka, pro scout material, should push Murrell for shortstop honors. Partyka slugged out a mighty .398 average last season with the fresh and looked good in the fall workouts. Tonelli's competition for the starting nod at second base will be sophomore Al Miranda, who fin ished last season with a .400-plus batting average. Scott Townsend heads the list of candidates for third base. Townsend is a powerful hitter as well as a glue-gloved hot corner man.

Thompson was chosen in the Spring of 1963 to succeed the late Earl Skidmore. During his tenure at Fork Union, Thompson posted a 76-15-1 record in dual meet com petition and produced 20 prep school All-America swimmers and divers. His teams were Southern 'OverI 0. Sigma Nu also played Phi Ep silon Pi, but the game is under protest, and is temporarily being discounted, until a ruling is made. After three straight shutouts, Chi Psi finally won its first game. They beat the Pi Kappa Phi's due to the fact that Pi Kappa Phi was unable to field a team, due to injuries. Forfeit score goes down as Chi Psi's I, Pi Kappa Phi 0. In Chi Psi's last game previous to the aforementioned victory, they were defeated by the ATO's, 28-0. Jolnny Ford was the ATO hero, scoring on a pass play in the end zone, and again by intercept ing a pass and taking it in. Larry Oquinn and "Dynamite" Doug Dent were defensively rugged for ATO.
