Mh USC bamal team, missing
a dbance to gain some valuable
iesce when a doubleheader
againt George Washington was
naed out Saturday, will play a
VWrd round game aginst powerful
Masachusetts in the Fort Jackson
Ueball tournament tonight at
T;0 at Cole Field at Fort Jackson.
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

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.

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.

Four or five sprinters who had
run 9.4 hundreds were there. About
the same number of great hurdlers
from all over were there. Darwin
Bond, the best high school quarter
miler in the country was there.
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.
Bond, running for Dobyns
Bennet high school of Kingsport
Tennessee, won the award for the
meet's outstanding high school
performer by winning the 100-yard
dash, and running the anchor leg
on his school's half and mile relay
teams.
Ohio State and Miami of Ohio
each won four first places in the
college division. Ohio State,
loaded in track as well as football,
took first and second in the 100

120-yard high hurdles. Jim Harris,

Austin and Art Kamm all won their
single matches in two sets each to
help boost the Gamecocks to a 4-2
advantage after the singles.
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. State and
