Tonight In College Park, Mary
land, the USC Gamecocks will face
the first of two crucial contests in
the Atlantic Coast Conference
when they take on the University
of Maryland.
The Gamecocks, presently 3-9 in
the ACC, must have wins tonight
over Maryland (6-6) and tomorrow
Sover Virginia (3-8) to escape the
ACC cellar.
These games will by no means
be easy ones for the Gamecocks.
The Terrapins of Maryland held an

Gamecocks were struggling
through the North-South Tourna
ment in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The Gamecocks had North Caro
lina State surge from nine points
behind to defeat them 68-63 on
Friday night. Saturday night the
University of North Carolina wore
down the Gamecocks' stall and
easily pulled away from them
83-71.
The grim significance of to
night's 'game with Maryland is
that it was the Terrapins who
started the Gamecocks on their los
ing streak. Maryland bombed the
Gamecocks, 78-63, on January 31,
after the Gamecocks had essen
tially done the same to Virginia
on January 29 when they defeated
the Cavaliers 82-64.
The main significance of to
night's and tomorrow's games is
that if the Gamecocks lose and re
main in the ACC cellar they will
have to play Duke in the opening
round of the ACC tournament.
However, the Gamecocks have
been the only ACC team to defeat
Duke and fought them down to the
wire before losing 41-38 on Febru
Ary 14.

Most everyone recognizes hiin
as QIIe of the more valuable sixth

everyone has been treated to a dis
play of Skip's hoofing in the cafe
Veria line. lie knows some steps
that you wouldn't believe.
Skip's value to USC, however,
does not lie entirely in his danc
ing. It lies in the fact that he is
a good basketball player, an in
spirational and dedicated fellow,
and as another Carolina student
has said, "just an all-around good
guy.
When the Gamecocks come to
the .idelines for a time-out during
a tense and important game, it is
fired-up Skit Kickey who, when
not in the line-up himself, is fir.-t
out to greet his teammates,. with
a slap on the backside and words
of praise andi encouragement.
