The' tournament, sponsored Aivt00 by USC and the Fort, will bWa at 11 when Yale meets Duke, the only other ACC entrant. A 3 pin. contest will pit the other two entrants, Toledo and Princeton, betre the USC-Mass game. Tuesday Massachusetts meets. Princeton in the opener, Duke battles Toledo at 3, and the Gamecocks take on Yale in the 7:30 finale. According to head baseball coach Bobby Richardson the touramment is not an elimination tourney. A winner will be declared at the end of the six days of play on the basis of team records. In dividual and team trophies provided by the Tricentennial Commission will be given out. . Richardson refused to name a favorite but commented," Duke and USC will have a definite ad vantage because of the weather. Most of the teams entered have not played any games yet and have only been outside a few times. There is still snow on the grounds of most of the schools". Richardson continued, "The tournament is just a chance for the schools to come down and play some games. Most of them go to Florida this time of the year so Coach (Jackie) Powers arranged for them to stop by here in con "FAMOUS COAST DAILY LUNCHEON SPI No. 1 - Enchilada, Tamale, Carne No: 2 -Mast-Taco.

The former Yankee star then turned his thoughts to the chances Df his young Gamecocks in the ipcoming season. "We'll be in good shape to start the conference schedule after the tournament and our two games at 3eorgia Southern," he remarked. "It hurts us to miss the doubleheader against George Washington because our pitchers do not get a chance to work. We'd like to play as many pitchers as possible in order to get a chance to look at them and see who is going to help our ball club." Richardson, commenting on the Gamecocks' loss to Furman, said "It was just too cold to play baseball at Furman. The guys sitting on the bench would get out and run between innings just to keep warm.

United Press International V D THE KID $ RQLAM isetts games man, also drew notice from Richardson. "Jimbo is in good shape but he just wasn't sharp on his control. He threw about 115 pitches in four innings which is usually a full game for him. "Smith is a control pitcher And is in trouble if he cannot find the plate." Richardson has promised the Gamecock baseball fans exciting baseball this season if they would attend the games. He repeated this promise after the loss to Furman. "I was very impressed with the speed in the top of our batting order and on the team as a whole,' he stated, "Tommy Moody and Billy Petoskey can really move, and when you can run like I think we will be able to, then you have lots of stolen bases and exciting baseball." USC will rely on the hitting power of Buddy Caldwell, Butch Anderson, Don Stanley and Moody and the pitching of Smith to stop the strong Massachusetts club which was a finalist in the College World Series last season. Coach Dick Bergquist's Massachusetts club will be opening their season in a six day affair. They will field a solid hitting club led by second baseman Tom Semino, outfielder Steve Rodgers, and first baseman Ray Ellerbrook. All three came in with over .300 marks last year. Rodgers was the leader with a .329 average followed closely by Ellerbrook's .322 and captain Semino's .314. Mitch Salnick a junior outfielder also provides hitting power as his.281 slate from last season in dicates. Rounding out the starters for Coach Bergquist's club will be third baseman Tim Berringer (.244), shortstop Joe Gugliotta (.238), Brian Martin, the club's only starting sophomore, and catcher Chuck Newell (.167). Mass will be able to call on Hozez Kelly and Warren Mason to come off the bench if necessary. Don Anderson, a junior righthander, will probably get the starting nod against the Gamecocks. Anderson is not an overwhelming pitcher but has a good curveball and gets the hitters out. Also on hand for Mass will be fastballer Lou Colabello. Colabello beat Boston U. on the district finals last year and pitched in a heart breaking, 4-2, lost to eventual national champion Arizona State. SCOIE Fetrs 3:0-:3 7:30-9:30 your bag?

South Carolina's sprint medley rely team of Jimmy Small, Keith Edison, Bobby Howe, and Bob Kaczka (running 220-220-440-880 yard legs respectively) did manage to brave the miserable conditions and win over some good competition in a time of 3:29.0.

Dickie Peyton lost his match in the fifth slot, but Barry Altman took the win in the sixth spot in three sets. Carolina took all three of the doubles matches, and USC Coach Bobby Heald won his first match as Gamecock coach. The Gamecocks start two fresh men, Kevin McCarthy and Dickie Peyton, in what Coach Heald calls, "a rebuilding year." The tennis team will face a tough week, with matches against Tennessee Tech, N.C.
