t Thursday, Norainber 1 1$23 SPOUT WRITERS PROPOSE CHANGE IN CONFERENCE ' Southern Conference Unwieldly; Northern Sector of v Eight Teams Would Make Good Unit. T IT TAR HEEL j "kcis inrouenout the South are of the opinion that the Southern Conference should be sulit into two sections, southern and north- ern. At present there are 22 teams in' the conference. These are Georgia, Georgia Tech, Florida, - Mississippi, University, Mississippi A. and 'M., Alabama, Auburn, Tulane, Vander bilt, Sewanee, Tennessee, - Kentucky, , South Carolina, Clemson, North Caro- lina, North Carolina State, .Virginia, '. . Washington . and Lee,' V. i P. L, Vir- : ginia Military Institute, and Mary land. ' " : ; ; : Conference Too Large v -The conference is so lare-p nnw tot - 3 w T U many of the teams do jiot play each . . other for many 'years. Last Satur-f- day was the first time Georgia Tech shas played dn the northern part of the conference in oyer thirteen years. There cannot be much real rivalry ; between teams as far "separated as Virginia and Tulane, or Maryland and Florida ; the territory covered is too large. - ' It has been suggested that all teams r north of the southern border of South Carolina form a northern sector. This would make nine teams in the confer- ence,two in South Carolina, Clemson and the University of South Carolina; two in North Carolina, N. C. State, and the University of North Carolina ; lour m Virginia, the University. W and L., Virginia Military Institute, -and V. .P.I.; and one in Maryland, - tne University of Maryland. . This would leave 13 teams in the southern section There would he room . in the .northern .portion for Duke and Wakp j-uicai,, iiiaiung i.i teams; possibly one or two others could be added. From a study "of the schedules of the teams it is seen that the northern teams play nine games -with the south ern members of the conference. Some of them 3o not7 play any at all this . year. On the other Jiand the nine teams in the north play 41 games with v each other. Create More Interest Tx tit " - xt. woum 3 oe much better- from-the standpoint of those on the sidelines for the conference to split, up ; much -Huuiu uc j tieaieu. iz has also been suggested that the team in the north considered to be the best play the champion of. the-southern part on the first Saturday in Decem ber," This annual clash would grow ' in popularity steadily. The southern conference is about twice as large as any of the other important ones. No .real champion can be picked each year, because manv of the best -teams do not play each other, and comparative scores count for little. ". , r . Among those advocating this change are W. A. Briggs, editor of the Balti more Sun and George Netherwood of the Greensboro Daily News. CHEERIOS WILL MEET Inhere "will be an important meeting of the Cheerios at Memorial Hall tonight at o'clock. - All members are urged to be present to attend to some, important matters of business.

The University of North Carolina and : State College will meet on the gridiron at Riddick Field in Raleigh next Saturday,' November 3, for the twenty-first game covering a rivalry of .34 years. The Tar Heels have won 14 of the 20 games played . and 'three were ties. Last year the yolfpack, led Dy the great Jack McDowall, humbl ed Carolina to the tune of 19 to 6. On paper the Tar Heels appear somewhat stronger' this year - than the Wolf pack, but previous records usually count for nothing when these two ancient rivals meet on the grid iron. . " - - " Which' is another ' way of savin? that the Tar Heels are preparing tor a pack of trouble when they jour ney to West Raleigh next Saturday. Nobody is .forgetting what Clemson did to South Carolina Thursday, and that State held Clemson to one" touchdown. Weekly Luncheons Held at Grad Club English, Geology and Law Faculties Have Socials Weekly. The Tar Heel harriers will meet their most imposing ' foe, Duke's cross country team, in Durham on November 10. Carolina's five year winning streak will undergo its most severe test when its hill and dale outfit is pitted against Coach Buch heit's Duke contingent. The Duke team composed of Doxy Woodard, Ashworth, Heiser, Owen, Winecoff and Simon is one of the best in the South this year. Two weeks ago it decisively defeated the Navy outiit at Annapolis by . the . score of 17 to 34, winning six out of the first seven places. Against Washington and 'Lee Saturday it won easily, by the score of 21 to 34. "'V;'iir Is Hardest Meet - I , Coach Dale Sanson admits it ,is the hardest meet that his men have i had facing them in the last five years and that his .team will be tested to the limit if it; is to emersre victorions. He also is worried over the fact that several of the men are not in as good condition as, the approaching season j Last year at." the Southern Cn-n ference meet in Atlanta, Carolina won six out of the first eight places. How ever with .Galen Elliott and Hoyt Pritchett lost to the sauad their heing graduated the prospects lor another such victory at Charlotta ville on Thanksgiving Dav are Tint as Drjgnt. as last year. Then th btate Championship meet will be held at - Duke .this year on Dec. 8 which closes the season for the Tar Heels.

At present the Geology faculty holds a weekly lun cheon oa Wednesday, the English acuity on Friday, and the Law facul ty on Saturday.

The English department was the first to use the dining room of the graduate club for this purpose, and more graduate and faculty groups will be using the club as the season advances. Since the kitchen has been placed in Smith Dormitory it is be coming a center for all kinds of gra duate and faculty activities.

The tennis meet scheduled to be held on the local courts Tuesdav af tor. noon "between Carolina and Duke was postponed. . The matches were to be fought out last. week but were held up due to unfavorable weather. However they . were delayed this nme Dy the ,Duke team for indefinite reasons. Coach Kenf ield stated that the mppf was to be more as a practice tournn. ment for the two teams than anything ease ana tnat he was highly desirous of arranging.a suitable dato fnr Kni, wwu. However the local mentor is worrying none over the possibilities of the Carolina net men-for the he has his last year's sauad , A -WAAAAWWW intact for the ensuing year.

In Yop mans and Shapiro the team has two men who are able to contest with t.Wo best in college circles, and it will oe remembered that these men are only sophomores this vear.

State on Rid dick Field in Raleigh next Saturday afternoon assumes double importance on the Carolina schedule, since its outcome will figure in the Tar Heel's standing in the North Carolina Big Five and Southern Conference race. Coach Gus Tebell has a strong out fit over at , the West Raleigh institu tion, a team that held Florida's high- scoring 'Gators to a 14 to 7 score last week-end, and the State players came through that battle almost unscathed. Facing them, the Tar Heels may lose the services of one or more of the men who were " outstanding in the bruising, fracas with Georgia Ttech Are Well Matched ' On their season records if you count games won and lost, disregard ing the calibre of opponents -the two ancient rivals . are well ' matched, Each team has won two games and lost three., Carolina has won from Wake Forest, and Maryland While State includes Wake Forest and Elon on the list of victims. Harvard, V.- P. I. and Georgia Tech have- taken the Heel's measure, and State has lost toi Clemson, Washington and Lee ana Jb ionaa. v In scoring records there is almost nothing to choose, for the Tar Heels show 112 points to 75 for all oppon ents. State has counted 108 points against the 58 of the enemy. The edge, -if any, comes in that the Tar Heels have faced stronger offensive teams than has the Wolf pack. Records Mean Nothing Statistics of fpast games show, how ever, that the comparative ' records mean nothing to the Techmen and Tar Heels when they mix on the grid iron. . Since the historic rivalry was renewed in 1919, they have met eight times. Of those eight games the Tar Heels have won ' five and lost three. arid in just one of the contests has the margin of victory been more than two touchdowns'. The 17 to 0 victory of Carolina in 1927 is the largest score. Both teams have scored in four of the recent games. Tar Heels Given Advantage The Tar Heels will enter the State game in Raleigh Saturday with the psychological advantage of a. tradi tional winning habit. Of the 20. times that Carolina and State have met on the gridiron oyer a period of 34 years, Carolina has won 14 games, lost three, and tied three. The Wolf pack won last season by a 19 to 6 score and Carolina will be determined to avenge that defeat. In Saturday's game in Raleigh with N. C. State the Tar Heel3 will be out to avenge the 19 to 6 defeat handed them last season by Jack McDowall and company. .
