In the Championship basketball be
tween State and Duke, the Terrors
seem to be the favorites by a' large
majority judging from the yells of the
listeners sitting around radios here
Tuesday night. Every available radio
on main street and in the dormitories
were hidden from sight, as the stu
dents crowded around, giving vent to
their pleasure as a State man would
cage the ball, interspersed now and
then by - the lonesome hooray of a
Dukester, A perfect bedlam of hoots,
yells, and howls of pleasure were
turned loose at. 11:30 o'clock when it
was announced that North Carolina
State had won by the substantial
score of 44-35. ; -

MENTORS
HUNT TWIRLERS
Ball Only Veteran Back; Farris
and Magner, Grid Stars,
May Come Through.
The University of North Carolina
baseball mentors are anxiously watch
ing a green mound squad . in indoor
workouts, hoping to find at least a
pair of capable pitchers for the Tar
Heel's tough schedule ahead: The
Tar Heels take on more than 30 games
this spring and Coach Jim Ashmore
has just one letter pitcher to handle
the mound burden. " "'
Even that one letterman, Jim Ball,
a lanky southpaw, was. not a regular
last spring. Ball did yoeman service,
sandwiching in on the easier, games
to gain experience for the "season just
ahead. None of the freshman box
artists are back and now. Coach Ash
more -is digging for young hurlers
with might and main.
Ray Farris and Jim Magner, both
varsity, football stars, are the only
boys frpm last year's varsity squad
with any mound ambitions. Farris
worked as a scruV hurler in practice
games last spring, while Magner
handled utility assignments in both
the" infield and . outfield. Both - boys
are of powerful build and may develop
into dependable pitchers.
The mound candidates are almost
an .unknown quantity to " Tar Heel
coaches and diamond fans. Jim Burt
and .George Hinton both played in
field and outfield with the freshman
squad last spring, but neither pitched
any, not even in practice ball. Burt
is a. younger brother of Ed Burt,
varsity second sacker for the past two
years. '
Other , candidates include Henry
Johnson, former high school star from

Instances of a girl of one religion
marrying a man of another are f re
quent.
And it is often that Irish and Jew
ish families are brought together
through the bonds of matrimony.
"In those instances, a wonderful
spirit of tolerance is displayed by, the
men and women of the families," de
clares Anne Nichols, author and pro
ducer of "Abie's Irish Rose," made
into a Paramount screen attraction,
and now showine at the ' Carolina
theatre. ; ,
"It was from such a case that I got
my inspiration for the story of 'Abie.'
"After I had written it, I assembled
a cast of able players, among them
Bernard Gorcey who had been doing
a big part in 'Katinka,' an Arthur
Hammerstein production.
" I explained the plot to each of
the players, and it was then that I
learned that Gorcey, who went to
the synagogue regularly, had - some
time before married Josephine Con
don, an Irish girl.
"The story of Mr. and Mrs. Gor
cey reads not unlike that of iry cen
tral characters in 'Abie's Irish Rose.'
"Gorcey kept secret from his par
ents the fact that he had married one
of another religion, and hi3 wife did
likewise. When.it came to the "dis
covery of the marrige, efxh family
took the news like Trojans and took
the girl and boy into their hearts.
"That spirit of tolerance is just
what I have been trying to further for
years. There is too much bigotry and
racial misunderstanding in this
country. It should be eliminated, and
if I can help with 'Abie's Irish Rose,'
I will be extremely happy."
Anne Nichols was, the advisory
supervisor on the .Paramount Pro
duction of "Abie's Irish Rose," which
was directed by Victor Fleming, with
Charles Rogers and Nancy. Carroll as
the featured players.
: Earlie Sanderson, a junior in the
University, may soon obtain a patent
from the United States Patent Office
on Jan invention which he has worked
and studied upon for about , three
years. Now, after thorough experi
mentation, he believes that he has
it perfected.
" A complete plan of the, invention
has been" submitted to apatent at
torney in Washington, who tells. San
derson that it is subject to patent
protection. He says that it would
be much "to' Sanderson's advantage to
get the patent as soon as possible.
The inventor' refuses to announce
the exact nature of his invention, but
it will, he claims, have universal ap
plication. He believes that he has
something "worked up which will, be
a success and that if it .does it will
revolutionize a certain phase of in
dustry. . . v. "'.
Tonight at seven-thirty the Univer
sity fencing team will meet the Uni
versity of ' South Carolina team in
the Tin Can for the first battle of
its career; : 1 . -
A five-man' foils team will meet the
South ' Carolinians in,a series of
twenty-five bouts which will be . run
off two at a time. Each' man will
fence with " each of the men on, the
South Carolina team.
The team will be chosen from the
following most likely contenders for
a place; Sidney Glickman, Henry
Hendlin, Shag, Hatem, Digby Ward
law, James Estep, Fred Wardlaw, and
Alfredo Nazareno. A series of
elimination bouts 'have been run" off,
and the team will -be announced just
before the beginning of the match.
Coach Reese and, his squad arrived
in Chapel Hill lat night to prepare
the South Carolinians for the tussle
tonight. At present the University
of South Carolina holds the Southern
Conference fencing title, r
The" matches will not take over two
hours to run off, , and- will begin
promptly on the hour, announced.
Owing to the speed with which the
bouts are necessarily fought, "not
very much time is generally required
for one or the other fencer to make
the winning touches.
The' University team has been prac
tising regularly and is now at the
top of its iorm. The South Carolina
aggregation brings a well-deserved
reputation with it, so that local fans
are looking forward to plenty of ac
tion and color when the battlers meet.
Tar Heels Present Rival
Quarters in Grid Battle
Two of the finest young quar
terbacks in the South Atlantic
section will cross wits in the an
nual spring grid classic between
University teams of "Monogram
Men" and "Youngsters." This
game, a full sixty-minute tussle,
is. carded for Kenan Memorial
Stadium here on Saturday after
noon at 2:30 o'clock. "
v. Pete Wyrick, field general for
the "Monogram' Men," broke in
, as varsity quarterback last fall,
and though just a sophomore he
rates among the coolest young
generals in. the Southern Confer
ence. Practically all of the Tar
Heel scoring last fall was done
with Wyrick at the helm, and his
cool judgment will be a valuable
asset for the University veterans
next Saturday.
' Stacked against Wyrick, the
"Youngsters" will present the
sawed-off Johnnie Branch. Branch
called signals to the freshman
team last fall and was a big fac
tor in the Tar Babies' emerging
from their schedule as undef eat-
ted South Atlantic champions.
In addition to his quarterback
duties, Branch represented close
to fifty percent, of the Tar Baby
running attack.
Football experts -who saw
Branch in action in several
games last fall classed him as
one of the. outstanding backs in
the East, and already Tar Heel
backers are talking of his prob
able value to the Carolina varsity
next, season. He is much the
same type of runner as the fam
ous "Stumpy" Thomason, Geor
gia Tech ace, and he is built on
much the same model as Thomason...

University Band
Takes Short Trip
Approaching . Examinations Cause
Tour to Be Cut Short; En
countered Much Rain.
The University of North Carolina
band returned Tuesday night from
their two day tour, in which they gave
concerts in Asheville and, Burlington.
The trip was necessarily cut short on
acount of the close proximity of ex
amination season, and the band was
not able to take the inclusive tour of
the state which it had planned. V
. Downpours of rain greeted the band
in each city, and as a result, the
crowds in attendance at the concerts
were very small. The persons who
did brave the adverse weather condi
tions to hear the University musical
organization were amply repaid for
their efforts, and applauded each
number to such an extent - that in
Asheville, as many as six encores had
to,be given. Asheville critics describ
ed the concert as being of a very high
ordeT, the. performers playing skill
fully the different numbers on the
program. Charles Hasf ord White,
cornet soloist and student -director of
that organization was given special
mention and praise. . Tlje band was
booked in AsheviHe by the manager
of the Auditorium Theatre and spon
sored byrthe- Asheville Alumni Asso
ciation. In Burlington the" band ap
peared under the auspices of the Bur
lington high school band.
The band was accompanied on its
tour by Prof. T. Smith McCorkle,
director. ' '
