DUKEJ.M.I.AND
TECH BOW BEFORE
CAROLINA ATTACK
One of the Most Successful
Week-ends for Heels This
Year.
Athletic teams scattered - through
out North Carolina, Georgia and Vir
ginia and representing all branches
of sports crumbled before the vic
torious march of the Tar Heels last
week-end. Considering the sphere of
sports from all angles, last Friday
and Saturday were undoutedly two
of the most successful days that Caro
lina teams have enjoyed this year
Carolina netmen annexed champion
ships in both the doubles and singles
in the annual state intercollegiate
tournament held on the local courts
last week-end, entering five out of
six men in the final round. Yeomans
captured the single honors for Caro
lina, defeating Brady Frank of Duke
in three straight sets. Merritt and
Shapiro sprung a surprise by defeat
ing their team-mates, Waddell and
Norwood in the doubles finals. '
A 90 to 36 victory over Georgia
Tech on the track tells the tale in it
self; the Heelmen won twelve out of
fourteen events, completely over
whelming the Georgians in almost
every event. Vernonx Cowper stab
lished a new University pole vault
record with a height of 12 ft. 6 in.
Ball hurled the Tar Heels to a 4 to
2 victory over V. M. I. on the diamond
last Saturday afternoon. Maus's
triple in the eighth started the rally
which ended in a triumphiant vic
tory for the Carolinians. This is the
eleventh victory for Coach Ashmore's
charges this season.

row afternoon when they journey to
Durham to engage the Duke track

meet of the season for Carolina.
Woodard, Brummitt, Ashworth,
Doxey and Murray will compose the
nucleus of the opposition that he Heel
men will encounter on the morrow.
Woodard recently set a time of 4
minutes 25 1-5 : seconds in the mile
and follewed in the same day with a
time of 2 minutes 2 seconds in the
half. Brummitt with a distance of
42 ft. 11 in. will oppose Adkins with
42 ft. 5-8 in record in the discus. With
this keen competition before him Ad
kins will have to out do even himself.
Ashworth will oppose Captain Hen
derson in the two mile.
The lineup for the Heelmen will be
similar to the one that has represent
ed Carolina in its previous meets.
Deputation Team
Will Go To Rocky
Mount Thursday
The Y Deputation club will leave
for Rocky Mount Thursday to attend
the joint meeting of the Junior and
Senior Hi-Y clubs. The program of
this event will be in charge of the de
putation team. A varied program
has been planned.
On -Friday the various schools of the
city will be visited and talks made on
the subjects "Clean Athletics," "Clean
Living," "Clean Speech," and "Clean
Scholarship."
Saturday morning a hike has been
planned for the boys of the town. In
the afternoon the railroad shops will
be visited. Sunday morning the mem
bers of the team will conduct the
classes of the Sunday schools in town.
The speakers to accompany the
team have not yet been chosen, but
Aubrey A. Perkins, general asso
ciate secretary, will go with the group.
The Y. M. C. A. quartet will also make
the trip with the team.
Big Checker Tourney
The annual tournament for the
North Carolina Checker championship
is to be held at Albemarle on July 4,
it was announced recently by Ed
ward Scheidt, secretary , of the North
Carolina Checker Association.
The Albemarle tourney will be the
tenth in the history of the Associa
tion. The 1928 Durham tourney and
the 1927 Burlington tourney each
draw more than 60 of the state's best
checker players, and this summer's
contest is expected to draw equally
as many or more. .
The Tar Heel nine turned in their
eleventh victory of the season last
Saturday afternoon on Emerson Field
by defeating the "Flying Squadron'
from V. M. I. 4-2. This victory main
tained the undisputed lead of the
Heels in the Tri-State League by vir
tue of six victories and no defeats.
Jim Ball pitched a masterful game,
allowed the "Cadets" only eight scat
tered hits while his team-mates bunch
ed hits off "Lefty" Williams in the
second and eighth innings to score two
in each frame. Williams also allowed
but eight hits and took a second place
in the batting honors of the day by
securing two hits out of four trips to
the plate.
The Heels have three games sche
duled this week. Two of these games
concern both the Tri-State and State
Leagues while the other concerns the
Tri-State League alone. The Caro
lina nine met the Wolf pack yesterday.
Friday, the Heels play their second
game of the season with V. P. I. and
the initial game with the Blue Devils
on Saturday. Most important of
these is the Duke game which will
have a decided effect on the final
standing of Carolina in the State
League, State having already lost two
games. Duke boasts one of the best
nines in the history of the school and
a battle-royal is expected.
; Coach Ashmore has now overcome!
that handicap of pitchers, so formi-
able in the early part of the season.
Wright and- Flemming,' rookies,
have developed into regular twirlers
and have won games consistently. Jim
Ball, veteran southpaw, has continu
ed the good work that he did on last
year's varsity nine. Coach Ashmore
has also turned out a bunch of hit
ters that have ruined the records held
by some of 'the most outstanding pit
chers of the two leagues.
University Grad
Makes Good Record
With Phone People
Chilton R. Jones, of J?ink Hill, N.
C, graduate of the Engineering
School in 1928, recently led a class of
sixteen, all but one of whom were
college graduates, in an intensive
study of telephone transmission work
with the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company. Professor P.
H. Daggett, of the Engineering
school, received a personal letter from
one of the officials of the company
in Atlanta advising him of Jones'
good work.
Three men in the electrical engin
eering department of the Engineer
ing School have received similar posi
tions with telephone companies for
next year. W. B. Sharpe will go
with the Southern Bell Co., W. N.
Michael with the American Telephone
and Telegraph Co., H. J. Hines with
the Bell Research Laboratories' in
New York.

"Puny" Harper, stellar field event
man on the Tar Heel track team, re
cently heaved the discus for a new
University record of 135 feet 7 inches
in the V. P. I. dual meet. This rec
ord approaches to within one foot of
the Conference mark and has been
surpassed this season only once and
that by Neeson of Louisiana State.
This blonde giant from L. S. U. will
offer keen competition to Harper for
Conference honors. In 1927 Harper
lead Neeson while last year Neeson
obtained a second in the Conference,
leaving Harper forced to accept a
third.
Vernon Cowper, premier Carolina
pole vaulter, established a. new Uni
versity record with a height of 12
ft. ,6 in. in the dual meet with Tech
last Saturday. Cowper held the out
door vault record at 11 feet 9 inches
and had captured the indoor record at
12 feet 1 1-4 inches. This surpasses
all , previous performances of North
Carolina athletes in this event and is
best height obtained in - competition
in the south this year. Cowper gives
promise of being a valuable point
earner in the Conference meet this
spring.

Georgia Tech proved an easier foe
on the track than, had been expected,
falling a victim to an invading Tar
Heel team last Saturday afternoon
36 to 90. North Carolina captured
twelve out of fourteen first places
and succeeded in sweeping in a horde
of second and third counters. Boyd
and Jones for Tech were the only two
men able to oppose the Heelmen in
scoring honors, defending Tech in the
high hurdles and javelin throw with
firsts and seconds.

Yeomans Defeats Frank to
Bring Singles Title Back to
the Hill; Finals in Doubles an
All-Carolina Affair.
The University's tennis stars clear
ly outshone the state's most brilliant
court luminaries in the annual inter
collegiate tournament last week and
annexed North Carolina champion
ships in both doubles and singles in
the finals on the Carolina courts
Saturday. Ed Yeomans, Tar Heel
sophomore won the singles.-, crown,
while Merritt and Shapiro defeated
another Tar Heel pair to win the
doubles. '
This year's tournament was almost
completely a Carolina affair, so far
as results are concerned. More than
a score of racketeers representing
Davidson, N. C. State, Lenoir-Rhyne,
Duke, and Carolina entered the cham
pionship series of matches, but early
eliminations removed most of the
highly-tooted invaders from the run
ning and yielded most of Carolina's
courtmeh as survivals. Seeded indi
viduals and pairs dropped visiting
colors by the way, but the University's
hopefuls came through in the final
finish.
Saturday's finals play displayed
some of the most brilliant tennis ever
seen on the University courts. In the
singles, Ed Yeomans outplayed Grady
Frank, red-headed Duke sophomore,
to win the individual crown in straight
sets, 6-1, 6-3, 6-3. Both youngsters
are playing their first season of var
sity tennis, and acquitted themselves
wonderfully. The match showed some
seemingly impossible shots in one of
the finest base-line battles ever seen
here. Neither Yeomans nor Frank
could get to the net to his advantage,
and neither tried it often. Frank's
forearm drives were beautiful, but the
rangy Yeomans retaliated with power
ful chop shots which seemed to be
wilder his fighting opponent. The
match was an exhibit of beautiful
spectacular tennis.
In the doubles finals, Carolina
monopolized the scene. Merritt and
Shapiro defeated their team mates,
Waddell and Norwood, in this All
Carolina finals, winning 6-4, 6-1, 6-2.
Both pairs played fast tennis, but the
favor and rivalry of an intercollegiate
struggle was lacking. Merritt and
Shapiro had defeated another Tar
Heel pair in the semi-finals on Fri
day.,.. . ',.7 -
The State Intercollegiate Tourna
ment this year added the newly-won
crown to the laurels gained in the
doubles last year by a Carolina team.
Yeomans takes up the crown relin
quished by Rogers of Duke at his
graduation last year. Merritt and
Shapiro replace Waddell and Wilson,
last year's winners, as wearers of the
championship laurels in doubles.
