While the top three teams
remain the same, there have been
several major changes in this
WGftk's intramural
? ..... ui uaoivciuail
rankings.
On the strength of two victories,
Sigma Nu remains the top team for
the third consecutive week. The
Sigma Nu's check in with a perfect
3-0 record. Kappa Alpha and
Omega Psi Phi both claimed easy
wins and remain in the numbertwo
and three positions.
The alteration in the order of
teams begins with the fourth spot.
Pi Kappa Phi moves up from their
fifth spot with a 37-point victory
over Sigma Phi Epsilon. Columbia
Hall, which drops from fourth to
i seventh this week, split in its two
games. The dormitory division
team defeated Wade Hampton
Hotel and suffered its first defeat
of the season 38-36 to Snowden.
MOVING UP three notches to
number five is Kappa Alpha Psi. .
The Kappas have been improving
with each game and this week
bombed Phi Kappa Psi by a huge
100-21 margin. Occupying the sixth
spot is another improving ball
club, Thornwell.

From page 15 .
Evelyn Johnson, who was high
scorer for the Lady Gamecocks
with 19 points and pulled down 12
rebounds in a well-rounded performance,
said the win was a
matter of determination on the
.'Dart of USC. "feverybodv was
determined they weren't going to *
ourtrebound us, they weren't going
-to outplay us and they weren't
going to win."
JOHNSON SAID defense was
important in the game. "We got a .
little sloppy with our defense, but
. we came back the second half and y
gotitall together."
Hita Johnson and Suzanne
Woolston provided offensive punch
and floor leadership for the Lady;,Gamecocks-*

Woolston scored all of her eight
points in the first half to spark
USC, also providing four assists

Jacobs said after halftime the
team was more intense.4'We came
out with more intensity and we
were hitting the boards a little
harder. We made some key steals
and some key rebounds at Just the
right time."
Pleased with the number-six
ranking, parsons said the team is
now shooting tor' the top five.

number nine is Irmo Alumni. Also,
for the first time in four years,
Alpha Phi Alpha does not appear
among the ten best teams in intramural
basketball. The Alphas
have been disappointing as they
have lost both of their contests this
season.
Also missing from this week's
rankings is AFRO, which dropped
a 57-55 decision to Beta Alpha Psi.

"THERE ARE eight million
people in Buenas Aires, and there
is 'a lot of night life. The Argen
tinians like to call it the Paris of
South America. It's really similar
to New York," Gilloon said.
"Everyone goes out on the
weekends. Downtown on Friday
and Saturday is a joke. You

merany nave to walk in the
streets. It seems even more
crowded than New York to me."
Argentina is a military state,
and, according to Gilloon, this has
its advantages. "There isn't much
crime. People are not scared to
walk the streets. The only pain is
that there is always someone
checking your documents. They'll
stop a whole bus and check
everybody out sometimes."
There are two other former USC
Dlavers in South America Karltrm
Hilton and Billy Truitt are playing
on a team in Cordorba. "It's in the
country and is supposed to be
beautifully landscaped. We were

'friendly game,' but it was cancelled,"
Gilloon said.
SOCIALIZING with olcffriends is
not the only reason Gilloon is back
in Columbia. "I hope to take one or
two of the seniors back with me,"

he said. "I can't promise anything,
but I'm positive all of them could
play in the league."
Although Gilloon has been gone
for two years, people who got a
chance to see him play have not
forgotten him ? and probably
never will.
