THE SPORT PAN
By YARBOROUGH
SOUTHERN CONFERENCE RULES
The Southern Conference states
very definitely that "each. institution
shall observe carefully the rules of
fairness and good sportsmanship."
As the University of North Carolina
is a member of this conference, there
fore it seems that ttie students at the
University are necessarily members
of the same conference. Placing this
responsibility on the students it does
seem that they can observe these
rules insofar as they regard sports
manship. Further the Conference
states that Southern Conference box
ing is to be governed by the rules of
the National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation. This association rules that
during the progress of a bout there is
to be no cheering. Only on occasions
have the students here failed to ob
serve this rule. But the rule concern
ing good sportsmanship was most
flagrantly violated Monday night. It
became necessary for the Director of
Athletics to appeal to the spectators
to remember that the visiting teams
were "guests of the University."
Without a doubt the howling that fol
lowed the sixth bout of the evening is
the greatest blow that 'clean ath
letics has ever suffered here. Nothing
marks the degeneration of athletics
more than the booing of ' the rulings
of officials.
Few real athletes engage in such.
When they do, it is because they are
carried away with their enthusiasm.
But the non-athlete is seldom so far
carried away by his enthusiasm that
he forgets to conduct himself as a, gen
tleman should. The howling has been
done, there is nothing that we can
do to recall the effects of that yelling.
But every man .who expects to attend
the Virginia matches can certainly
be with that team and fight . cleanly.
We can cheer them, but there should
never be the occasion for such a per
formance as occurred Monday night.
COACH ED BUTLER x
Ed Butler;-former captain of the
Carolina pugilists, has turned out one
good team. He had a few veterans
returning, but without letting that
fact make the team too cocky he
Started to , work, and now we believe
that Carolina has the best boxing
team in the South. There are few
men who can mix gloves on equal
terms with Vaughn, Sheffield, Good
rich, Allen, . and Brown. Those boys
are good fighters; from our; knowl
edge of boxing they are just about
as good as any the South lias boasted
in amateur circles since boxing be
came a recognized conference sport.
Davis and Warren are, good too, but
Obie usually draws a man weighing
about twenty pounds more than he
does and that handicap is almost too
much. John naturally draws the
toughest of , the lot. A heavy fight
h is always a fight, and Warren has his
hands full when he steps into the
Ting. '
Coach Quinlan has been working
with the boxers and wrestlers. Giv
ing Ed Butler a, great deal of the
credit for the success of the Caro
lina mittmen, yet one, cannot easily
overlook "Quinnie." He has turned
out a championship wrestling team,
and now it looks as if he is going
in for double championships boxing
and wrestling.
THE QUINTET
Since the 16-point defeat of the
Tar Heel five by Duke Saturday night
the chances of the Heels winning the
tournament seem slim. But one can
easily recall the year when Carolina
met rather rough sledding in North
Carolina but managed to cop the
crown at Atlanta. While we are
willing to admit that the Devils have
a good team, still we think that there
will be a different story when the
two teams hook; lip again. In fact
we believe that; after Croson gets
over his flurry of shooting that the
Devils will settle down and just be
' an ordinary basketball team. Some
times when youngsters step into var
sity competition they go like a house
afire, but after, running against sev
eral tough teams they begin to show
the effects of their hard work.
Croson may be a wonder. He was

Southern Conference basketball
continues to bask in the limelight .of
athletic interests throughout Dixie.
With the ' steadily approaching At
lanta Tournament, the barometer of
club ratings continues to fluctuate as
each successive week of intra-conf er
ence games closes. Pavorites in
Southern Conference basketball stood
out more clearly at the end of last
week's play, a bare four weeks before
the annual tournament championship,
but Georgia Tech and "Washington and
Lee alone remained in the undefeated
class.--
North Carolina's record of Confer
ence engagements last week shows
successive victories over Virginia and
V. P. I., and a defeat by Duke. The
outcome, of last week's play places
Carolina in fourth place in ' team
standings, with seven Conference vic
tories and two defeats. The Tar
Heels embarked last -night for a
northern trip which will, include two
important Southern Conferences con
gests with Virginia and Maryland;
Saturday night will find the Phan
toms playing out of the Southern
loop, engaging Princeton.
During last week, nearly every
team in the Conference saw action
at least once, with Georgia Tech and
Duke coming to the front. However,
Duke's stock seems to have reached
the point of inflation when the Blue
Devils beat Carolina, for the Duke
men suffered defeat at the hands of
Georgia in their southern tour this
week. Tulane and the University of
Mississippi, both rated as real, were
idle, but are encountering stern tests
this week. North Carolina, North
Carolina : State, and Alabama were
among the most active members in
the conference, but each faltered once.
- The undefeated " leaders, Georgia
Tech. and Washington and Lee, won
their solo starts in, handy fashion by
turning back Vanderbilt and Mary
land respectively.
The following is the record of
games won and lost by Southern
basketball teams, in intra-conf erence
competition:

None of the prohibition enforce

new in the plan of the Durant prize
winner. But then there are a lot of
things those officials don't see.
Wichita Eagle.
ans excellent player some four years
ago when he played in prep school.
If we remember correctly he had
Coach Sanborn, tutor of one of Caro
lina's championship teams, as his
mentor at that time. At the begin
ning of the season it' was said in
Durham to "wait until Croson is eli
gible." Everyone waited. Once he
was eligible he started out to show
them that they had not waited for
nothing.
But all in all, Croson or no Croson,
we're expecting the Heels to win in
the next meeting with Duke.
The Carolina Dry Cleaners' big
contest for sale of coupon books re
deemable in trade at their establish
ment, which will continue until March
23 and wliich win net $1821 in prizes
to -winners, got off to a bang-up start
yesterday.
John W. 'Caff ey, who is managing
the contest for the local firm, occu
pied his campaign headquarters a
bove Sutton's Drug Store, and all day
there was a steady stream of in
quirersstudents and - townspeople
alike seeking information and en
rolling in the big campaign.
Much Interest Shown
From yesterday's start it would ap
pear that there are likely to be an
unusually large number of contes
tants and rather keen competition in
haranguing students and local people
to buy coupons.
The local firm has made the con
test well worth while. A total of ten
prizes will be awarded, including a
new Big Six' Pontiac automobile, a
new Ford Tudor Sedan, an Atwater
Kent radio set, and a number of cash
prizes. And besides all this, cash
commissions will be given to all active
contestants who do not win a prize.
How to Enter
The campaign is open to men and
women, married or single, living in
the vicinity of Chapel Hill, and to all
University students. All that is
necessary to enter the contest is to
fill but the coupon in the advertise
ment in this issue and take or send
it to the campaign department over
Sutton's, Drug Store, where supplies
will be furnished free.
Campaign Rules
Contestants may sell coupon books
to anyone and anywhere and as many
to one person as they can. They may
have as many friends to help theni
as they may get. Votes once issued
to the credit of any one contestant
can not be transferred to the credit
of another.
Early Work Counts
Prizes will be awarded on a basis
of votes received so many votes be
iner eiven for each coupon sale. The
management has urged that every
body interested get to work in the
beginning, because votes count more
at that stage of the campaign.
For instance, there will be four
periods in the campaign, and at the
beginning ,a sale of a $10 book will
count 50,000 votes and at the end the
same sale will only count 10,000 votes.
The coupon books themselves will
be sold at a 5 per cent discount and
will be good for redemption at the
Carolina Dry Cleaners on any class of
dry cleaning, pressing, dyeing, and
any work done by the establishment.
Raleigh Alumni Club
To Entertain Loopers
The Carolina basketball team will
be entertained by the Raleigh Alumni
Club late Wednesday afternoon, Feb.
13, just before the Carolina-State
game that night, according to J.
Maryon Saunders, General Secretary
of the Alumni Asociation, who recen
tly received word of the invitation
from Dr. A. S. Root, president of the
Raleigh club. .
Following this meeting of the Ra
leigh club, Wednesday the Board of
Directors of the General Alumni As
sociation will hold a meeting Thurs
day morning over which W. T. Shore,
newly elected president, will preside.
This is' the first meeting that has
been'; held since Dr. Shore has been
in office.
Yesterday morning the Tar Baby
basketball team left the Hill on their
annual trip into Virginia. The trip
will last the remainder of this week
and during this time the freshmen
will play four games with some of
the strongest teams in Virginia.
Last night the freshmen of Wash
ington and Lee furnished the oppo
sition. The Generals are reputed to
have one of the stongest aggregations
in the Old Dominion. .
Tonight the freshmen move up to
V. ,MV I. where they will engage their
freshman team.
Tomorrow will see Coach; Belding's
men swing into action against the
strong V. P. I. freshmen. This will
be the second time this season that
these two teams have met and the
Tar Babies will enter the fray with
the assurance of having already
downed the Cadets once. However,
this game will be no easy battle since
the Carolina frosh experienced quite
a bit of difficulty, in defeating the
V. P. I boys down here last week.
Saturday night will bring the trip
to a close with the Carolina freshmen
meeting either the Virginia freshmen
or the strong Augusta Military Aca
demy five. ;
Twelve men made the trip besides
Manager Mac Gray and Coach Beld
ing. Five forwards, Greene, Moore,
Sachs, Johnson, and Brooker, were
taken. Reid, Myers and Hendliri,
centers, and Hutchinson, Alexander,
Bremer, arid Yost, guards make iip
the rest of the team. Brooker, Hend
liri arid Bremer are newcomers on the
team and will be watched with in
terest. .VV'- ,,,, 'y J- : ,.V
The Tar. Babies start their trip
with an enviable record. They record
ed wihs' 6verStaie, Wake Forest, Oak
Ridge, arid V. P. I: arid quite a few
other aggregations. Their record is
marred by bniybne defeat, suffered
in tnteir last game. The Duke Blue
Imps riose'd out a win bver them' in
a game which was very close and de
cided only after ah extra period had
been played .
After they return from the four
game jaunt, the Tar Babies have re
turn games scheduled with State Col
lege, Duke, arid Wake Forest. There
is a possibility that others may be
added before the season is ended.

referee of that night's .Wake Forest
Richmond University game. Holli
day had also officiated at the Wake
Forest-Hampden Sidney . game on
Monday night, which the Deacons
won. At the Richmond came, which
Richmond won, the Deacons first be
came angry when Holliday removed
two Wake Forest men from the game,
Al Dowtin, captain and forward, and
Hal Weir, guard. ;. They especially
resented this as Holliday had, the
night previous, ejected two of their
players from the Hampden Sidney
game.
The report is that the Wake Forest
players after the game followed Holli
day to the basement of the gymna
sium where they began to make re
marks to him about his refereeing.
Finally, one of the Deacons snatched
off his glasses, and several of them
are alleged to have attacked him. Al
though Holliday did not go to a hos
pital it is said that he was badly
beaten up.
The Deacons are scheduled to play
in the dedication game of the new
Richmond stadium next fall, but it is
said that Coach Frank Dobson, of the
University of Richmond, intimated
that it was very doubtful if Wake
Forest would play Richmond in foot
ball next fall; after Tuesday night's
display; Coach Ddhson however, did
not make any official announcement
concerning a break between the institutions.
The latest report from the U.
N. C. winter football field, ac
cording to the News and Ob- ..
server, has it that Harry Schwartz
is soon to be added to the football
coaching staff of the University.
It is understood that Schwartz
will be regular coach of the fresh
man team, and , that Lester
Belding, head freshman grid
coach since the start of the Notre
Dame regime on the Hill, has re
signed. .
The report goes on that Tex
Enright, former Notre Dame star
and now an assistant coach at
Carolina, appears likely to replace '
Belding, with Schwartz serving
as assistant.

TAR HEEL NOTICE
There, will be an important meet
ing of the Tar Heel Business Staff
tonight at 7 o'clock for all staff mem
bers and for all men interested in
joining. the staff, on which there are
several openings.
M. R. ALEXANDER,
The Millrose A. A. holds its 22nd
annual track and field meet in Mad
ison Square Garden next Saturday
night with the names of Percy Wil
liams and Paavo Nurmi heading an
impressive entry list.
Williams who is to compete in the
60-yard dash, gave American sprint
ers another taste of his dust in the
Boston A. A. games last night. Al
though a novice at the indoor Tun
ing game, and racing 40 yards, a
strange distance to him, the Olym
pic sprint champion from Vancouv
er, B. C, trounced a crack field that
included Karl Wildermuth, of
Georgetown; Jimmy Daley, of Holy
Cross, and Chet Bowman of the New
ark A. C.
' Nurmi, who ... romped to another
easy two-mile victory in the Boston
A. A. games, makes his first start of
his present tour over the mile route.
Indications are that Paavo will have
much more serious opposition than
he has had so far. In the field
against Nurmi will be Ray Conger,
the American 1,500 meter champion;
Willie Goodwin; former national two
mile titleholder, who is attempting a
comeback this season ; and Galen El
liott, former. University of North
