Carolina a controvers ? It seems the continuing saga of the McGuire-Carlen controversy has not ended. It appeared a solution proposed by President James B. Holderman would be fair to all parties with the appointment of Dr. James A. Morris to the position of vice-president for intercollegiate athletics. However, since the appointment of Morris controversy is still brewing and the athletic program here at Carolina is in the middle of ii. ur. Moiaerman announced with the Morris position that coaches Carlen and McGuire would work under Morris in the operation of USC athletics. Sportalk by Matt Ward Ail McGuire immediately approved of the idea and said it was the kind of decision which should have been made long ago. Carlen's immediate reaction was unknown. It seems Carlen is not too happy because within the last week he has hired an attorney to look into his contract. ONCE AGAIN the issue of Carolina athletics is in the forefront of the sports scene here at USC. Though Carlen has not said anything definite about the matter, there are a few facts which must be mentioned. When Holderman appointed Morris only one coach was happy with the decision; McGuire. Since McGuire was low man on the Carolina athletic totem pole, it is easy to realize why he instantly approved of Morris's appointment. It is also easy to see why Carlen hired an attorney. With the Morris appointment some of the responsibilities which were exLacrosse From page "IT WAS a really hard game ar Carolina and Clemson. I thought it said.

CARLE N LOSES his control over the budget in all of the athletics and his close working ties with business manager John Moore and the Gamecock club. It seems Carlen believes the Morris appointment is a demotion in his handling of athletics at USC. When Morris was appointed it was obvious Carlen was not totally happy. He did not make a public statement saying he was pleased with the decision. Carlen went along with the decision at the time of the announcement. So it seems another controversy is beginning to take shape at ? - Carolina. 11 wasn't enough to have one controversy in the McGuire matter. But with Carlen hiring an attorney and no one saying much about the controversy one thing is painfully clear; the appointment of Morris did not clear up the situation as hoped for by Holderman. It has caused another problem. Carlen's role at Carolina is still very strong. Even with Morris as vice-president for intercollegiate athletics, Carlen has complete and total authority over football. IT SEEMS to me Carlen is causing more u/nupe fHon ic necessary. President Holderman made a decision and it is up to the people under him to follow his directives. Holderman appointed Morris for the sole purpose of trying to bring peace to an unsettled athletic department. Having Morris with all of his experience and know-how is a great benefit in clearing up the constant nonsense which is occurring in USC's athletic program. Carlen's possible action can only engulf USC athletics in another serious controversy which the university can do without. Possibly something can be worked out between Carlen and Holderman.

Bellinger? ? From page 8 IT WAS A matter of who would adjust first to the lane conditions as to who would win the tournament. Bellinger rebounded with games of 222,237 and 235 to put him into the lead after the first day, and make him the singles champion, which he had earned last year also. It was the big one, the all-events that Bellinger wanted and finally won. "Alter those horrible doubles games, I figured that I had better do something, so instead of my usual line-up on the left and walk to the right for the hook, I stayed over to the left. I took a chance that no one else wanted to," Bellinger said. According to Bellinger, the other bowlers instead of trying to adjust, would try to fight it and consequently did not score as well. and ms varu??tnu OJ ] BoxSSlSl^Ca I Save a Garnet at j Name (print) !

A bowler will have turn nr three 300 games per month there, when here two in one year is phenomenal."
