Well, you've waited all summer long for this day. The season opener. There's nothing like a football weekend. Whether it be at Southern Cal, Slippery Rock, or at Clemson. And the season opener has a fine edge, a b't more glitter, than any other Saturday afternoon of the year. It's the anticipation that makes the season opener a very special day. A renewal of stadium acquaintances. Swapping stories and refreshments at the pre-and-post-game tailgate gatherings. Tigers Host The most noticeable difference in the 1976 and 1977 Tiger seasons is in the form of first-year head coach Charley Pell, tabbed one of Bear Bryant's '61 Terps in "little sharks" on that Alabama National Championship team. With Charley Pell comes a new feeling of pride and a new attitude in a rebuilding season. Season Opener Today's opponent is an established grid power —Jerry Claiborne's Mary- land Terrapins. A team that won all 1 1 games in the regular season last fall, losing only to Houston 30-21 in the Cotton Bowl. Maryland fans are still recovering from a wild week in Dallas. Clemson fans are still purring over that Nov. 20th 28-9 win over South Carolina. But today's the beginning of a new season, as both teams enter the 1 o'clock kickoff undefeated. «4U Another change in our program is just that —the program. We've put in a considerable amount of hours during the summer months to bring you this change in our format. One will be this very page each game. We ll bring you such things as up-to-date stats, records established or about to be established, and other facts and trivia about the Clemson Tigers and the Saturday opponent. Also, on page five you'll find a special feature on the Clemson Tiger Marching Band under the directorship of Dr. Bruce Cook. On page seven you'll see a feature written by a past Tiger athlete who recalls an exciting game from the series of Clemson's opponent that day. Today, Elmo Lam recalls the 1962 Maryland game. And there will be many more features and specials each Saturday about our great University, not only about our athletic program but about our academic and research programs as well. For two consecutive seasons our official game programs have been recognized as among the top five in America, and we hope that this year's series will be no exception. We welcome comments and suggestions from our fans, and hope that you enjoy our new approach in 1977. Bob Bradley.

Her name is Susy McLellan. She's the daughter of Clem- son Athletic Director Bill McLellan.
