Six of the letterman are pittchers, two returning catchers are letterman and five of the returning letterman are out fielders. On paper, the infield shows up as the weakest spot on the team. Two first basemen and a shortstop return, but third base and second base will be up for grabs. Fresh men Tommy Moody, who starred for A.C. Flora High School in Columbia, is one of the hopefuls for the second base slot. Only one third baseman is listed on the roster recently released by the Sports Information Office.. He is freshman Bruce Pudlock of Parma, Ohio. Of the 32 players listed on the roster, six are seniors, nine are juniors, five are sophomores and 12 are freshmen.

At least that's what most of the skippers said. The race turned out to be something of a no-show because the wind wouldn't cooperate. It stands to reason that there won't be much sailing if there isn't any wind, and there was neither wind nor much sailing Saturday. The regatta was scheduled to be made up of 12 races, six in the A Division and six in the B Division, but the wind made the races so slow that there were only six races run. Clemson took first place in the six team event, scoring 154 points. Davidson was second with 12% points, Citadel third, Georgia Tech fourth, Carolina fifth and the College of Charleston was last. "The wind was so light that the cigarette smoke the sailors used to test the wind went straight up," said Hank Hitpas, B Division skipper. "It really makes it unfair trying to determine who's the best skipper when the wind is like it was Saturday," Hitpas said. The wind then died almost completely during the second race of the day. Hitpas was fighting for the lead in the second race when the wind quit completely, causing him and two other skippers to foul out of the race. "Half the fleet fouled out," said Hitpas, who was somewhat exasperated about the whole thing. Van Liles race the A Division races for USC Saturday. Jim Gordon was Liles crewman for the first race, but in an attempt to get a lighter crewman to counteract the wind conditions, Loles had Maureen O'Cane as his crewman in the other two races. B Division skipper Hitpas used Joan Hoffman for his crewman in all three races. The next race will be the College of Charleston Invitational next weekend.

The two winners of the semi-finals will play Saturday afternoon for the right to advance to the national finals at College Park Md. The finals will be held March 19 and 21. bill currie MOUTH Of the SOUTH Every father recalls with a certain degree of chagrin his apprehension as he paced and smoked in the waiting room during the birth of his child. Raise this nervous seizure to the tenth power and extend it from a matter of minutes or hours to months, and one begins to understand what college basketball coaches suffer during the weeks preceding the signing of key recruits. It is an entrail strangling time of cardiac palpitations, for on the whimsical-decision of an eighteen year old boy one's future and livelihood well may hang. Moreover, the recruiting of a true blue chip prep school player is the fruition of months.and even years of bent knee entreaties which frequently include all members of the prospect's immediate family plus assorted uncles, aunts, et al ad nauseaum. Right now there are several well known and nationally respected coaches who stare sleeplessly into the darkness as they thrash about on sweat drenched sheets at night, because nobody knows where Tom McMillan is going to pursue his education next fall. Who, you ask, is Tom McMillan? If you ask, then you ar,e obviously not in step with the intensive efforts which have been published nationally on the myriad of coaches and their assistants who have been camping in seige outside Mansfield, Pennsylvania, these past two years. McMillan, whose brother Jay was a fine performer for Bud Millikan a few years abck at Maryland, is a 6-11 pivot man who is averaging about forty points and twenty-five rebounds per game in his high school league. Potentially he may be another Lew Alcindor, or at the very least, another Tom Riker. Admittedly, the competition at Mansfield is not as swift as say at Erasmus High in Brooklyn, but the gaggle of recruiters have seen enough: He can go like the four thousand pound gorilla, wherever he pleases. Brother Jay is pressing his younger sibling to become a Terrapin and help Lefty Drieseli make good his threat to turn Maryland into the UCLA of the East. A few weeks ago, Lefty invited the whole Mansfield team to College Park for a luncheon presided over by the Governor of Maryland. The kid had to be impressed. But Dean Smith of North Carolina and Bucky Waters at Duke are reportedly still in the picture, and these three coaches are certainly in the sweat-and-lie awake stage. Signing a nationally proclaimed player like McMillan has its own intrinsic reward, but there are additional and perhaps even more important peripheral benefits whch will accrue to the winner. Ot her good players tend to flock to join a team which has the beliweather leader, because quite understandably, everyone wants to be with a winner. All-America honors come only rarely to players on losing teams. McMillan could put North Carolina or Duke or Maryland into the national scene for his three varsity years. Whoever gets him will breathe a gasping sigh of relief and mop up a swarm of additional talent. The losers will hustle about to corral their alternate choices before the field has been swept clean. Actually, landing a much sought after prospect is of as much psychological value as it is of physical importance. Maryland seems to have the inside track. But Dean Smith has a record of getting the big ones. Larry Miller, Bobby Lewis, Charlie Scott and Dennis Wuycik to name a few who could have gone anywhere. If McMillan doesn't wind up at North Carolina - and he well may not -- I, for one, will be surprised. Every Tuesday Night is... STUDENT NIGHT SIZZLIN' SIRLOIN 5 p"m.'
