: .The vUniveraty. student . body . will
;get its .first glimpse of the 1929 edi
tion of -Tar , Heel basketball team to
night when the SouthCarolina Game-cocks
invade the Tin Can here for
;the first j home, game of. the season.
.This battle is the first of two tough
ones on deckVthis. week," for the Tar
Heels are slated to meet Wake Forest
in "Raleigh con "Saturday. .
In half a dozen early season en
counters the Tar Heels "have played
up and down basketball winning two
.Southern Conference games after
dropping three to Middle Western
fives on the holiday trip. ,The other
.game uncovered plenty of stuff
against Davidson in the " first; "Bigl
Five" event of the season. s
These two games this week will do
much to establish the University tos
sers in their places on - both the
Southern Conference and "Big Five"
ladders. A win over the Gamecocks
-will place the Carolina entry in a
commanding post in the Southern Con
ference with three . wins against no
defeats ; and : a victory over: the Dea--cons
means -a flying start in the state
race. -;'
Coach Jim Ashmore is banking on
a -young squad this year and a mid
get aggregation, if;; you compare it
with the lanky clubs that have carried
Tar Heel colors in years past. There
are four veterans back in togs, but the
fifth regular and the reserve links
must come from rookie ranks.
The quintet that;f aces South Caro
lina and Wake Forest .will, probably
be much the same that started tne
games on the Middle Western trip.
Satterfield and Price : may be seen at
forward, with Cathey at -center, and
Captain Hackney shifted back, to run
ning guard. Either :Brown, ; Choate,
Marpet, or Smith .will pair with
Hackney at guard. All " four are
rookies, playing their first varsity
season. ,
MH1EN TO OPEN
WITH GAMECOCKS
Cancelled , Engagement With
Clemson Tigers Gives Boxers
Week' of Training.
The Tar Heel boxers, champions of
. the Southern Conference last year,
get an extra week of pre-season train
ing before facing the University of
South Carolina at Columbia next
Saturday night, January 19. This
' extra week of training comes as a
result of a cancelled engagement with
the Clemson Tigers.
The "Tigers were carded to invade
the Tin Can here on Saturday of last
week, but the South Carolina students
returned from Christmas holidays, a
week late, and athletic authorities can
celled the date with the Tar Heels.
Captain Charlie Brown and Archie
Allen, both Southern Conference
champions in their weights, are the
only lettermen to report so far.
Cheatham Coley, regular bantani last
winter, will don the gloves as soon
as he recovars from an attack of in
fluenza, but Odell Sapp will not com
pete for his light heavyweight berth
this season.
In less than a week of practice since
Christmas holidays the youngsters on
the squad have been showing a lot of
stuff. Evan Vaughn, a bantam up
from last year's freshmen, will give
Coley a lot of competition; and John
'Warren and Obie Davis may twin
berths before the Washington and Lee
-. - - - - , --"meet.
. . r '
The outstanding candidates in each
weight include Vaughn and Coley,
bantamweights; Cummings, : feather
weight; Webb and Goodridge, light
weights ; Allen and Davis, welter
weights; Brown and Presson, middle
weights; Warren, light heavyweight;
and Mclver, heavyweight. vv
The picture of the Woodberry
Forest Club for the Yackety Yack
will be taken this morning at chapel
period on the steps of the Law build
ing. This will be the only opportunity
to have this picture, so all members of
this club be present at that time.
GEORGIA HEADS,
DIXIE LOOPERS
Tar Heels Come Fourth With
Two Wins During Middle
West Jaunt. -
THE SPORT PAN
By YARBOROUGH
As the third week of the Southern
Conference season opensT"followers of
Dixie basketball are able to get at
least an approximate estimate of the
comparative'' strength of court repre
sentatives of the South's leading col
leges and universities. Throughout
the entire Southern loop, there aire
evidences of a still more brilliant
season in promise for 1929 than in
the hard-fought campaigns of last
year. The University of Mississippi,
Conference Champions for 1928, has
a difficult task ahead if it expects to
retain its crown for another year.
The University of Georgia Bull
dogs, winning four games durjng the
first week of the season, occupied the
topof the rating ladder, although idle
throughout last week. The Bulldog
lead, however, is not so commanding
as a week ago. Georgia Tech, with a
brace of wins over Florida, increased
its string of successive conference
victories to three games to take sec
ond place from the North Carolina
quintet that contented itself with
games outside the conference. The
Tar Heels have won their, only con
ference engagements, defeating Ken
tucky and Tennessee on successive
nights while on a recent Middle West
ern tour.
The University, of Mississippi five,
last yearV champions,- made its de
but for the year within conference
circles during the week decisively to
defeat Louisiana State University in
two games and demonstrate its
potency. The Ole Miss championship
squad is intact except for , center,
wliere a new-comer apparently fits
with machine-like precision.
Duke University, baby member of
the Conference, made its first start
in the ranks against Virginia's Cava
liers and lost.. The Blue Devils met
the Virginians , as they swung home
from a . road trip , that saw them fall
disastrously before Georgetown Uni
versity and then Navy. ,'
Vanderbilt opened its conference
season Saturday . night with a decisive
win . over the ' Tigers of Sewanee-, an
ancient enemy, giving promise of
trouble for other conference foes be
fore the annual tournament opens.
Clemson, after a disastrous road
trip the preceding week, advanced on
the Florida 'Gator 'stronghold Friday
and Saturday, to .win pair of games
and. take an even break' for confer
ences games. , :.
Kentucky has met but one confer?
ence opponent, North Carolina, and
lost. ' However, the Wildcats showed
strength when they ventured into for
eign territory Saturday night to de
feat Notre Dame, with a close guard
ing defense that prove quite effective.
The University of Florida ., 'Gators
have made six starts this season, and
so far have not broken into the win-4
column.
North Carolina State, Tennessee,
Washington and Lee, Mississippi A.
and M., 'Auburn, Alabama, Virginia
Poly, Maryland, and South Carolina
al were active outside , conference
circles during the past week, tuning
up for more strenuous games ahead.
Alhough the actual champions ' of
Southern - Conference basketball are
declared and crowned in the annual
tournament in Atlanta in March, the
seasonal games between conference
members serve to give, in some
measure, the comparative strength of
the "teams contending for Dixie
championship honors-

SOCCER:
.With the great popularity of soccer
in the eastern colleges and prepara
tory, schools, we are at a loss to un
derstand why so little effort has been
expended to bring that sport to the
University. For a great .many years
the game has been played through
cut the east; its popularity is , so
great that the spoUT has been profes
sionalized . and now there are several
soccer teams that t play before larger
crowds than professional football
draws consistently throughout tthe
country. . -
.Not only is the game one to.be en
joyed but it furnishes an "excellent
training, ground for those too frail to
engage in football. Yet it does not
lack, the-' thrill that the "great Amer
ican sport" - gives, both participators
iftid spectators. The game requires
both ability . and the natural love ; of
sport that .every- athlete must have.
While we are not as familiar with
the sport as ?we would like to be, yet
we cannot .help but wish for an intro
duction of .the sport in the South to a
greater extent. Asheville School has
had soccer teams for many years and
those who have played it are enthu
siastic over the prospects of bringing
it to Carolina.
Another .advantage" that could be
well used in connection with this
sport is that it is less expensive than
football .and there are a great many
high schools throughout this state
that would adopt the game. With
the training they would . get from
the game, many boys would make
much better athletes' whenv they en
ter college , and would furnish much
material: for the athletic eams here.
WINTER FOOTBALL :
Recent news dispatches state that
Coaches Collins and Cerney have been
re-signed for a period of" years at a
higher salary. This is highly grati
fying to us, for we have continually
urged the retention of these coaches,
not that anyone entertained the idea
that the Athletic Council would let
them go, but to avoid the possibility
of allowing- some other institution to
get ,them. ;
With this announcement the date
for the opening of winter, football was
announced. Monday the winter grid
ders will get H underway. Judging
from results, the innovation used by
the Carolina coaches" last winter was
a complete success. Without a doubt
Coaches Collins and Cerney will con
tinue their plan.
As we have stated before there are
several line holes that must be plug
ged. No better time could be found
than this winter in which material
may be developed for these positions.
As Coach Collins manages his win
ter football program, at least four
men will get training for every posi
tion! Then too these men will get
experience that one only gets from
actual combat.- If the winter football
season is as successful this year as
the 1928 session . was, we have the
highest hopes of Carolina producing
an even more spectacular and win
ning football, outfit this fall.
SHIFTING HACKNEY: - v
Quite a, bit of ink was spread over
the newspapers when - Ruf e Hackney,
captain of the -1929 Tar Heel quintet
was shifted to guard. Again the pa
pers blare forth with announcements
that he lias been shifted back to for
ward. ' Whatever position the Durham
boy may be playing he is sure to come
through and deliver. When he is
playing a guard position he usually
takes the best forward on . the oppos
ing team to guard. His opponent
seldom' breaks loose for a score.
When he , is paired with another bur-
ham boy, Henry Satterfield, he is a
threat every minute of the game. In
fact the two rather small Carolina
forwards are hard to beat. . They work
with clocklike precision and when
they get going they sink goals with
the same precision.
Seven ' European . countries were
visited during the past summer by
the. Yale University Glee Club. The
tour was planned in cooperation with
the Intercollegiate Glee Club Council
of the : United States, which has a
membership of 236 organizations.
Harvard University Glee Club visited
some of the Countries of Europe in
1921, but-Yale is sard to be the first
university to send a glee : club to
Sweden and Germany. The club was
greeted with great enthusiasm every
where, and in many places - it was
given an official welcome. School

MEET OXFORD E
THIS AFTERNOON
Will Be Last High School Game
Before Tar Babies x Open
Regular Season.
CoachBelding's freshmen will open
their home season here this afternoon
at 4 o'clock with" Oxford High. This
game, which is the second of the year
for the Tar Babies, was scheduled to
be the curtain raiser for the varsity
game with the University of South
Carolina, but was . moved up to this
afternoon due to the conflict with the
annual football banquet. The game
will bethe last tilt with a high school
aggregation before the freshmen open
their -regular schedule with other
freshmen teams. The next fray on
the schedule will be "played in Raleigh
Saturday night before the Carolina
Wake Forest 'game The. frosh game
will be against the Baby Deacons.
Little is known of the strength of
the Oxford team but it is fairly safe
to predict an easy win for the fresh
men. No real comparison can be made
between the Tar Babies and the Baby
Deacons since ,the Carolina first year
men 'have not yet met with a strong
team. However Wake Forest has
played the State College frosh and on
a basis of their showing in this game,
they should . not furnish very strong
opposition to Belding's charges. .
- Stiff practice sessions have been
held every flight . this week and the
coaches are getting the team lined up
somewhat more than they had it when
they played Durham High last ,week.
Greene, Moore, Sachs, and Johnson
have shown ability - at forward and
should develop before the season is
ended. Reid and Bill uggs are the
leading candidates for s the y center
position. Hutchison and Alexander
seem to be the best of the lot at guard
right now. However -there are quite
a few men. out for.thee two places
who should give them a fight as the
season goes on. Much, time is being
devoted '.to developing teamwork and
when the frosh take the floor this
afternoon, they should show a smooth
running aggregation.
ReigePs Stunt Is
Duplicate of One
By Carolina Player
While all the football fans in the
country were stalking about the fam
ous run in the , wrong direction by
Reigels, a few fans who were present
at the Carolina-Virginia game in
1926 were recalling a play made by
Tom : Young which was similar to
that of Reigels. ,
Near the end of the first quarter
of this game Virginia punted to the
Tar Heels on their., own forty-five
yard line. Foard circled end to put
the ball in, midfield as the quarter
ended. During the intermission the
goals were changed. After two plays
Through the line had failed at the be
ginning x)f the second period, ,Ox
Shuford dropped ,-back to punt, t Ab
ner, Virginia's left end, succeeded in
blocking the punt and the ball went
straight up in the , air. Tom Young
was the first man to .reach ; the ball
after it had struck the ground ; and"
bounded towards the sideline. In his
confusion Tom scooped the ball up
and' started toward the wrong goal.
However, Young was not the only
man who was confused on the play,
for several Virginia . players started
out after him. After he had covered
about fifteen yards, Abner caught
him andr downed him with a hard
tackle. Since this play was made on
the fourth down, Virginia got the ball
and a few minutes later was, in posi
tion to dropkick the field goal which
gave her a three to nothing victory.
Those fans who recall the incident
are wondering what might have hap
pened if the Virginians' Tiad; not been
as badly confused as Young.
