Annual Tonight's ToW Begins Clemso The traditional rivalry between Carolina and Clemson University is the talk of the state this weekend as the two foes meet once again for THIS the biggest weekend of the year. The festive holiday begins to swing to night with the Student Union sponsored dance at Township Auditorium, featuring the Supremes, and the Shirelles with Julius Cobb and The Swinging Sixties Band and the Lovin' Spoonful. Also plans by fraternities, sororities and other groups insure the fact that the week end will not end without an extensive at tempt toward fun. In anticipation of the weekend, the Caro lina campus has enjoyed "spontaneous" pep rallies nearly every night this week. Thursday night saw the annual shirt-tail Rivalry nship Dance n Weekend parade to downtown Columbia and the burn ing of the tiger on Davis Field. Beginning Friday the bells of Rutledge College will toll a death dirge for the Tigers of "Moo U." Again, as in years past, fra ternity pledges will endure the chore of keeping the bells ringing until the Tigers meet their doom Saturday at 2 p.m. in Caro lina Stadium. As the University planned for this year's climactic grid clash with the "college in the hills," the campus enjoyed more freedom in pre-game pep stimulation. Monday it was announced that "spontaneous" pep rallies (differentiated from riots), would be al lowed on the campus. To insure against the usual rash of minor vandalism, Preston Residence Hall Student Government organized an all-night patrol for the campus. Cont inues Game Set. For 2 P.M. Saturday Hy JOHN LOTTICI Staff Writer Carolina versus Clemson-1965. The Gamecocks and Tigers square off in Carolina Stadium tomorrow afternoon in the 62nd renewal of their classic rivalry. This year there is a little more at stake than usual. The winner of this one takes home at least a share of the ACC championship bacon. A Clemson victory, God forbid. would give the title to the Tigers outright, while a USC triumph would enable the Gamecocks to share the championship with the Duke-North Car(-lina w inner and Maryland, provided the Terps can Iget by Virginia. TPhis one is the big one. Both teams point for it all year, and the quality of play, usually mag nificent, reflects this. Clemson. which appeared a shoo-in for the conference title until two weeks ago, has blown two chances in a r' - to put it away, and the -angry Tigers will be attempting to nail down the elusive title tomorrow. To do it, they will have to get by a fired up hand of Carolina Gamecocks who have demonstrated a keen ability this season both on offense and defense. The Tigers of Frank Howard definitely ha%e a few things go ing for them. Aside from their radio annou n c e r (Whooo! Mercy!), they have tailback Hugh Mauldin, who has chalked (Continued on Page 7) (Camecock Staff Photo by Ruas) sie week .. . (G.mweoc Staff Photo byRuw ,e week .. .

Sen. Jim Mulligan introduced the first bill in the two-phase study of attendance regulations. This bill asks the Student-Faculty Relations Committee to re-evalu ate the attendance requirements for juniors and seniors with the aim of allowing them to use their own discretion in the number of cuts they take. Such permission would be granted only to students in good standing. However, the bill did not specify what grades would be necessary for good standing. The bill did specify that the number of cuts allowed must con form to the standards of the Southern Association of Colleges and Universities and to those of South Carolina state laws con cerning attendance. These laws require students to attend at least 75 per cent of their classes to obtain credit for a course; therefore, the number of cuts would be limited to twelve. In a statement to The Game cock, Sen. Mulligan said, "Studies have shown that voluntary at tendance has no appreciable af fect on class attendance where upperclassmen are concerned. "College students are supposed to be mature enough to make their own decisions. I don't feel that voluntary attendance would affect grades since the initiative would remain in the hands of the student. Those who want an ed uoation will get it." The second bill concerning at tendance was introduced by Sen. Gigi Belser. Sen. Belser's bill called on the id Blue Key it Scholars sion procedures, honors program, financial aid opportunities, and a film about University life. Guests will also tour the cam pus and examine the schopl or college in which they are most interested. In addition, the University Play ers will present a one-act comedy.

The Senate also noted that some classca in the School of Pharmacy penalize students for even taking the normal four cuts. In other action the Senate asked Russell House Cafeteria to pro vide free seconds for students on the board plan as is done in the Cafeterias in South and the Tow ers. Another bill was passed sup porting the effects of the Towers Dorm Government to have the new lounge named after the late Mike Johnson. Senate sent to committee a bill to abolish the Student Spirit Com THANKSGIVING The Gamecock will not publish next week in memory of Thanks giving holidays.
