GEMERAL . V TIRE J G. Wallace Best Bet in Scoring Race By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Every day in every way South Carolina's Gradv Wall more like the fellow who's go ing to win that spectacular five- man battle for the national col lege basketball scoring title. The reason is simple: The 6-foot-4 shotmaker seems less in. clined to encounter the "nff i games mai nave hurt the cnances or such gifted rivals as Wilt Chamberlain and Chet Forte. Wallace ran into a clinging two-man defense against Fur man Tuesday night, but still managed to approximate his sea son average by pouring in 27 points to lead the Gamecocks to an 85-77 victory. That total dropped Wallace's season aver age to 30.41 points a game .88 ahead of Columbia's Forte who plays tonight against Yale. Forte Needs 46 But actually Walla tion is stronger than it looks at iirst glance. To pass Grady, for example. Forte must score 46 points tonight and even then he would just shade Wallace with a 30.42 average. With Forte the only one of the "big five" seeing action tonight, here's how the race shapes up: ntc atrff a 1 Wallace, S. Car. ..669 30.41 4 Forte, Columbia . 532 29.55 6 Gibbon. Miss. .
