Jackson's thing is running an he does it very well. Against the Citadel Jackson ran for 223 yards, including two scampers of one and 69 yards that resulted in Biddie scores. Jackson's total yardage is probably a Biddie record, altho gh there is some doubt, because of inavailable records. "He moves like a waterbug squirming in and out those holes," commented USC freshman coach Bob Ryan, who won his second game in as many starts. "I really believe Russ Jackson has got a good future here." Behind the running of Jackson and the toe of Bobby Marino, who booted a 28-yard field goal, the Biddies led at the intermission, 17 3. The score, however was not indicative of the way the game was played. The Citadel's option at tack, led by Roger Bazemore with 88 yards in 13 carries, was finding holes in the Biddie line. 411 ii 1 ti 7 "O .ONE.F. I se your faoieeti >nClecin as 1bu li' unn lo*Lne.

"Actually we missed a lot of tackles in that first half. They run that option well, though, it's hard Schaper-led USC harriers drop Tech Jim Schaper and the USC cross country team won their second straight dual meet of the season when Carolina topped Georgia Tech, 21-34, Saturday at Sesquicentennial State Park.

Georgia Tech took third and fourth with Ned Dietler, 26:33, and Bill Blohm, 26:23. The Gamecocks clinched the meet when they took the next three places.

I'm kinda glad this was their first game, because I think The Citadel's going to develop into a fine little football team." Jackson, a 5-9, 170 pound native of Treasure Island, Fla., started the second half as he had ended the first, twisting and squirming his way through the Citadel's line and secondary. He and fullback Joey Swam combined for all but three yards on the Biddies 66 yard opening series in the third quarter. Swam crashed over from the one giving the Biddies a 24-3 lead. Minutes later Marino added another field goal, this one from 31 yards, putting his name in the Biddie record books. It was the first time the Biddies had more th ,n one field goal in a season. The Biddie final score came in the fourth period as reserve quarterback Zeb Shue found Jim Collins, who had another super night with 3 catches for 28 yards, alone in the end zone. The win might prove costly for the Biddies. Keith Cato, a starting linebacker, dislocated his ankle and will be out for a couple of weeks. Randy Chastain suffered a slight ankle injury and could also be out for a while. The Biddies take on Virginia Tech next Saturday night at Williams-Brice Stadium.
