Carolina's track team con
tinued its winning ways by b
defeating rival Clemson, 80-65.

running events 49-33. F
No records were set but
Carolina did sweep the 100-yard b
dash and took first and second
in the 220-yard dash. Coach Bill
McClure said, "We're very t
happy to beat Clemson. Any 0
time you beat Clemson it's
great."
Injuries did play a factor as
Carolina's two-miler Don
Layden dropped out with
stomach cramps after three
fourths mile. This allowed
Clemson to sweep the 2-mile.
In the triple-jump Bruce
Stuart pulled up short with what
appeared to be either a pulled
hamstring or a bad cramp.
Stuart said the injury is a com- t
bination of a hamstring pull and
cramp. t
However, USC's second
jumper, Berle Stocks, came v
through with a jump of 45 to c
win the event. Even with his 1
injury, Stuart ended up in third 4
place with an earlier jump of 44 v

Although not really surprised

I was afraid of this meet. The
