Jack Boykin, former Camden Bull*
dog football aoe, and son of Mr. and
Mrs. Corbett Boykin of Laurens Court
and the city hall office witnessed the
Cleveland Rams-Washington Redskins
world title gam^ at Cleveland a week
ago last Sunday.

Jack and five other naval lads
found that zero weather was darned
uncomfortable and so they wi^iggled
into a bay mound near the sidelines
and watched tilie^ game from that
vantage point.'

Seems tha.t in view of the snow and
zero temperature the Cleveland stad
ium officials had covered the fi^d
with a heavy layer of hay. In fact
they paid nearly IS,000 for the hay.
On the morning of the game it was
dragged from the field and piled up
on either side. Later it was sold for
almost as much as the stadium had
paid for it.

In case you were not tuned In for
that game, or failed to note it in
the press, Cleveland won 15 to 14.
And it was a pass from, Sammy
Baugh, hitting a goal post and bound
ing back into the end zone that en
abled the'Rams to gather the two
points of a safety and win by the one
point margin.

We are wondering what school or
college will be lucky enough to sign
up Johnny McMillan, former Sumter
high school coach and later coach of
the South Carolina Gamecocks. Mc
Millan. Just 26 years of age, has'dodb
a great job with the South Carolina
team this year. Rex Enright returns
.to coach the Gamecocks next year
Personally we regard the departure
of McMillan as a blow to South Car
olina’s 'football future. Enright has
our best withes for success, but we’re
willing to bet right now that the
Gamecocks of 46 will not be as fight
ing or sens^Uonal a team as the 45
outfit. ^

What game are you going to listen
to on New Year’s day. We’ll be tun
ed to the Rose Bowl affair and we are
forecasting an Alabama win by at
least two touchdowns,^ providing Oil

What about the Wake Forest-South
Carolina game? Our bet is Wake For
est by one or twd touchdowns.
