Carolina, Duke Clash Here Today
TWO TAR HEELS well worth watching at this afternoon’s Duke-
Carolina game are Billy Myers, pictured at the top, and Co-captain Joe
Austin, at the bottom. They lead the Tar Heel scoring to date with 23
and 24 points respectively to their credit. Austin is remembered by Caro
lina fans as the lad who caught the touchdown pass which defeated Duke
here two years ago, 6 to 3. He is a senior while Myers is a sophomore.
Cloudbusters Favored to Topple
Manhattan in New York Today
NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov 14—The
once-defeated Cloudbusters from the
Navy Pre-Flight School, Chapel Hill,
N. C., invade Gotham today to give
fans a taste of-the type of football be
ing taught future flyers who soon will
be going into battle against the Axis
airmen.
Manhattan College is the host team
and the game will be played before
12,000 or more fans at the Polo
grounds.
Manhattan will be the underdog in
the game as far as the betting is con
cerned. However, the visitors well re
member the power the home team dis
played in knocking off Duquesne in a
big upset here three weeks ago and
will be ready for anything. Last
week the Navy took the measure of
Georgetown at Washington, D. C.,
23 to 7, without undue trouble. Previ
ous to that game, Lieut. Comdr. Jim
Crowley’s Cadets downed Syracuse,
Temple, North Carolina State, Cataw
ba, Harvard, tied the Georgia Pre-
Flight School and lost a 7 to 6 deci
sion to unbeaten and untied Boston
College.
Len Eshmont, Navy left half, was
the biggest individual contributor to
the Cloudbuster victory against
Georgetown last Saturday with a pair
of touchdowns and a half-dozen bril
liant downfield power sprints. Full
back Lou BufFalino scored a ’Buster
touchdown with a 30-yard dash around
his left end, Sandy Sanford converted
twice after touchdowns, and Quarter
back Gene Davis completed the scoring
for Navy with a field goal from a dif
ficult angle on the 20 yard line with
but seconds remaining to play.
Expected to start against Manhat
tan are Len Eshmont and Walter
Zwiezynski at halfbacks, Joe Martin
at fullback and Gene Davis at quar
terback. Bob King and John Witkow-
ski get the call at ends; Steve Huda-
cek and Joe Frank at the tackle spots;
Charles Pierce and Lou Young at
guards; and Joe Kovach at center.
Work this week for the Navy team
has been concentrated on defense.

Cadets To See
Spirited Contest
In Kenan Stadium
By Westy Fenhagen
DTH Sports Editor
Determined to maintain their sea
son’s record of not having lost a sin
gle contest in the presence of the Pre-
iFlight cadets, the North Carolina
Tar Heels battle the powerful Duke
Blue Devils in a renewal of their an
nual classic today at Kenan Stadium.
Perennially one of the nation’s top
battles, the Tar Heel-Duke game is
expected to be played before a sellout
crowd of close to 40,000 fans.
As at the other Carolina home
games, the Pre-Flight cadets will be
guests of the University Athletic
Association and will occupy the end
two sections next to the student
stands on the south side of the field.
Gates will open at 1200 and the kick-
off is slated for 1400.
The Dukes who have won four and
lost three during the season will prob
ably rank as slight .favorites but past
engagements between the two teams
have shown that favorites don’t
mean a thing when Duke and Caro
lina battle it out together. The Tar
Heels who have dropped only two con
tests out of seven this season have
regained their early season form as
evidenced by the 43-14 shellacking
handed out to Davidson last week and
are primed and ready to gain revenge
for the 20-0 triumph Duke’s Rose
Bowl eleven turned in last year.
Practically all even in the statis
tical department, greater speed in
the backfield and powerful reserve
strength will give the Devils a slight
edge. Both squads are in fine shape
for the classic with only several play
ers for both teams unlikely to see
much action. Captain Jim Smith of
the Dukes who has been out a greater
part of the season has recovered from
his injuries and will see some action
today as will Alex Luckes, star soph
omore tackle who was sidelined by an
injury in the Pitt game. Co-captain
Tank Marshall whose old knee ail
ment has failed to improve will prob
ably see only a few minutes of ser
vice for the Tar Heels. Shot Cox,
brilliant Carolina running and pass
ing star, who was absent from prac
tice earlier in the week because of an
illness in his family, has returned and
will be a vital cog in the Tar Heel
machine today.
Carolina will rely heavily on a
strong aerial ban’age to stop the
Dukes and for this purpose has Billy
Myers, sophomore flash, Shot Cox,
