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:
