Mangum said he has received additional support in the undertaking from the Intra-Fraternity Council and Thornwell Dormitory. "The IFC has donated their time and money in an effort to make this thing work," Mangum explained. "Thornwell Dormitory has also become involved in the cardwriting and we hope the other dorms will follow suit." Mangum also indicated that he has obtained pledges of support from other universities. "I've contacted friends at North Carolina, Indiana, and Southern Cal and they have all agreed to send cards to ABC requesting television coverage for the Gamecocks," Mangum said. USC HEAD FOOTBALL coach Jim Carlen has repeatedly expressed a concern over the Gamecocks' lack of television coverage. He said the one thing lacking in George Rogers' quest for the Heisman is adequate TV exposure. The last aoDearance for the Gamecocks nn Aftf was in 1977, when the network regionally televisd the USC-Clemson game. South Carolina has never appeared on national television in football. Presently, USC is ranked 14th in the UPI poll and 15th in AP's rankings. Any student wishing to offer their help in the campaign may contact Mangum at 771-5423. Postcards may also be mailed directly to ABC-TV. The person and address to send them to is: Don Bernstein, ABC-TV, 1330 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019. A decision to nationally telecast the USC-Georgia match-up will probably tye made no later than Oct. 27, so according to Mangum, "time is running out." IK YOU COLUMBIA!
