Runner Wadiak,

Rivals Patterns
Gomecock, Colonial
Specialists High
In Nations Runkino
By George Huber

The George Washington South
Carolina football game Friday
night at Griffith Stadium may de-
velop into a contest between Andy
Davis passing for CIV and Steve
Wadiak's running for sc.
The Gamecocks admittedly are
wary of Davis passing, Scouts
Earl Durham and Weems Boskin
having taken back glowing reports
of his aerial artistry, while Tim
SWEET, the CIV scout, is equally
strong with warnings of Wadiak' S
ball-carrying ability.
These two stars have set the
pattern for their teams. With
Davis doing much of the passing
but with Bobby Cilento and
Johnny Shullenbarger also help
ing, the Colonials this week have
the sixth best passing record
among the country's leading COL
lege elevens. Only Southern
Methodist. Holy Cross, Washing
ton, Loyola of California and VAN
derbilt rate ahead of the Colonials,
who have averaged 1914 yards
through the air in their four
games.
CIV Completes so Per Cent.
The CIV completion average is
exactly SO per cent with 76 sue
cessful aerials in 152 attempts for
972 yards, according to this weeks
statistics compiled by the National
Collegiate Athletic Bureau. Davis
has done much of the work with
A competitions in 95 attempts for
662 yards, which rates him 17th
among the country's individual
leaders. Only Dukes Bill Cox
rates above him as a passer in the
Southern Conference.
Davis with his rushing yardage
added to his passing is 18th among
individual ground gamers with a
total of IA yards in 139 plays.
Although the Gamecocks as a
team do not figure in the National
statistical list, Wadiak is we'll up
among the individual leaders. In
70 ball carrying trips, he has to-
tailed 524 yards, which makes him
eighth among the country's rush
ing standouts.
sc Stops Star Runners.
South Carolina is proud of the
way Its line has stopped the star
runner of each of the four teams
it has played SO far, but at the
same time 1t Is admitted that the
Gamecocks have had trouble with
opposition passes. Duke used
passes to beat the Gamecock in
SC's opener, and last week Glenn
son used more of the same to set
up the last-minute touchdown
that tied the game.
Knowing that South Carolina
will be particularly wary of pass
ing, George Washington might
concentrate on running attack
this week, but the Gamecock
ground defenses have been par
tlcularly strong. Star runners on
other teams have had their worst
days this fall against SC.
Furman's Ed Jasonek got only
"a yards. Georgia Techs Bobby
North only %, Dukes Monte was
a bit better with 81 yards in 20
tries and Clemson's Jack Calvert
was stopped practically cold with
9 yards. All these totals are far
less than these runners usually
achieve.

found guilty of circulating litera-

the verdict. He was fined the
maximum of 5000 for his offense.
His attorney challenged three Ne

were called to the panel. He
wanted an all-Gentile, all white

Many times this summer we will
read of boating tragedies that
could have been avoided if a few
simple precautions had been used.
Many accidents occur because
people fall out of boats and be-
come paniCky.
A boat will not capsize except
under unusual circumstances.
Should a boat swamp or capsize
it will still support the weight of
several people unless the motor
and anchor weight it down. If an
accident should happen, stay with
the boat if it floats, and hang on
to the side till help arrives.
Do not attempt to swim ashore
If swimming from a boat, be sure
the anchor will keep the boat
from drifting away, and never
overestimate your swimming
ability.
Now that life jackets and pre-
servers are within the price
range of everyone they should be
a must in every boat, for they
are a cheap insurance against
tragedies.
Do not overload the boat. If
more than four adults occupy
fourteen foot boat, it is overloaded
No more than three should be in
a twelve foot boat.
Enjoy your boating trips but
use common sense doing it. More
will be written about boating
safety later.
Don Riley, Pioneer Press sports
writer, attacked this rule several
weeks ago. The rule makes the
high school monopolize all the
high school athletes time, even
after the sport in which he parti-
cipated is over. After a student
spends the season under the strict
surveillance and supervision of
coach, it seems to me very small
to bar that boy from partalIing in
a little free play in tournaments
that are well run and conducted
and are sponsored by reliable
community agencies. 1t is up to
the parents of high school athletes
to have such an unfair rule
changed or reversed.

Pepper. Friend of
Negro. Defeated In
Florida Contest


Gcorgrou5 GEORGE Smathcrs
won IA sweeping victory over
Sen. Claude Pepper in the sen
atoriaI race which ended in the
May , primaries here. Winner
in the Democratic primaries in
Florida IS certain to be elected
since Democrats outnumbcr Re
pubhcans 10 to / in the state.
Sen Pepper, who had been
staunCh supporter of the late
President ROusevelts New Deal
policies and who had gone along
with President Truman's civil
rights program had been expected
to retain the seat ne had held
for II years with the help of the
Negro and labor vote which the
CLIO had been Corraling in the
state. But the antipathy inspired
by the knowledge of the CLOS
presence helped bring out the OPP
position. About 20 per cent of the
states registered voters were re-
ported to have gone to the polls.
The campaign was one of the
bitterest ever staged in the state
with the race issue as used by
Smathers being determining
factor. Although he had hitherto
been considered fairly friendly to
Negroes and had solicited their
support in his congressional cam
paigns he avoided any contacts
that might be used by race-hating
whites. He opened his campaign
in Orlando, seat of the Florida Ku
Klux Khan with a blast against
the FEPC, a procedure followed in
each speech which proved to be
vote-getting. He made capital Of
the presence of CLIO political
workers in the state, warning
AFL members that CLIO policy
advocated Negroes and whites
working side by side.
Smatners supporters were
caught in the act of bribing a
Negro to have his picture taken
shaking hands with Pepper and a
similar picture was spread over
the front page of the Orlando Sem
tinel and used against the incum-
| bent.
Smathers' trump was a letter
from George Weaver, Negro
leader in the CLIO Political Action
committee to DR.. Ira Davis. prom
inent Negro dentist of Miami, in
which he laid the groundwork for
the CLOS campaign to get out the
Florida Negro vote for Pepper.
The letter was reputedly sub
mitted by Dr. Davis himself but
his reason for changing camps was
not given. 1t was evident near the
end of the campaign that the odds
were against Pepper who sounded
in each speech like a man fighting
for his life.
The NAACP's fight for the life
of the Negro boys sentenced to the
chair for supposed rape was drag
ged into the campaign when Pep
per refused to repudiate recent
articles in the st. Petersburg
Times that suggested the boys
might not be guilty. States Atty
Jesse w. Hunter who had prose-
cuted the case for the state and
who is a power in Lake County
threw his support to Smathers
when Pepper declared for freedom
of the press. 1t looked like a trick
and II worked.
What it will be like to have a
liberal Democrat" as Smathers
calls himself in the Senate re-
mains to be seen. But 1t is certain
that Smathers is against most of
the benefits advocated by Presi-
dent Truman that would benefit
Negroes.

RESPECTING AND
OREYING LAWS

II has occurred to me that laws
work both ways -. Now II
"jimcrow" laws can be passed
and people will respect and obey
such unconstitutional laws. why
is 1t that civil rights laws cannot
be passed and respected? In
my opinion, the same people who
observe "jimcrow" laws can and
viii obey civil rights laws. All
laws are supposed to be enforced.
So in my opinion, it is foolish to
offer the argument that the people
are not ready for laws to make
them treat their fellow man right.
