Tuesday, May -14,. 1929 THE TAR HEEL Pasre Tfcrta Heel Gindrmfen Begin Work or S. I. G. Track Meet Following State Meet Chances of Carolina Appear Brighter for Title. Jessup 7- Strenous work-outs last week coupl ed with time trials Saturday after noon marked the last hard work be fore the Carolina track team leaves for the annual Southern Conference track and field meet at Birmingham May 17 and 18. ( About 20 men will be taken to the big meet this year, for Carolina has one of the best round ed teams of recent years. After the showing of the Heels in the state meet indications are that Carolina will make a strong bid for honors in the tests at Birmingham. While not boasting the great indivi dual stars of recent years, Carolina still has great strength in second and third places. V . Although those to make the trip have not been definitely selected, it is likely that the following men will go to Birmingham : Gay and Smith in the sprints, Harrison and Garret in the 440, Nims in the 880, Barkley, Fisher, and Wrenn in the mile, Hen derson and Baucom in the two mile, Stafford and Perry in .the .hurdles, Neiman and Cowper in the pole vault, Adkins, Harper, 'and Dameron in the weights, aand Bagby in the high jump. Perry and Stafford have both been showing good form in the hurdle races and should pick up points in the events at Birmingham. - Stafford also performs in the broad jump along with Neiman, Gay handles the sprints along with Smith. Smith also runs the 440 and it is likely that he will com pete in the longer race this week-end. Harrison and Garret placed in the state meet in the quarter. Nims is the class of the Heels' half, milers. Running close to record time through out the race he was barely nosed out by McGinn of State in the race at the state meet. All three milers have shown consistent form, but none have approached the maTk set by Elliott in his three years of competition here. Captain Johnny Henderson has a -capable understudy-in tb.etsvo mile in Baucom, sophomore runner. With Cowper performing consisten tly and with Neiman showing good heights in the pole vault on occasions, Carolina is expecting to score in this event at the meet. ' Harper and Da meron both toss the discuss around 130 feet, which is just about as good as any in the South can do. Adkins has reached forty-two feet in the shot and with, a good afternoon should do the same at Birmingham. With a jump of five ten in the' high jump Bagby has chances of placing in the meet Saturday. Carolina should carry one of the best mile relay teams to the meet in the Squth. Nims, Harrison, Smith, Hamer, Barkley, anad Garret 'form the group from which the team will be selected.

Gray, undefeated in freshman battles, will be out for the 115 pound - weight j against Vaughn who made a wonder ful record in the bantam division this year, Clark, who -was ineligible for the freshman team this year will dis pute Sheffield's berth. The 135 pound weight will be ably defended by either Noah , Goodridge or Cummings. In the next weight Archie Allen, Captain elect, looks the best although- Webb has shown wonderful improvement in the spring practices. Tom Parsons, a hard hitting freshman, stands a good chance to take over the position left vacant by. the graduation of Brown. .Obie Davis and Warren are sure of their places though Rosenfelt may cause some trouble. . Billy Koe nig, husky- football star, worked out with the team this spring and shows promise of developing into a good fighter, if the Southern Conference adopts the new ruling of the national association, then a new weight known as the 159 pound division will be created. According to Coach Butler this new weight will greatly help the Carolina team since Allen, Davis, Par sons, or Webb could take care of this division and allow one more member on the team .

In total team scores, Carolina placed fifth among the ten schools represented. Meade Willis, sophomore star, won third flight honors. When consideration is made distance for the fact that this is the second year of organized varsity golf at the University, the outcome of the Uni versity's entrance into the Conference Tourney this year is praiseworthy. Statistics through the Wake Forest MTtic on Tuesdav show tb entire Uni versity squad, pitchers Sd all, hit ting at a .302 gait. The Tar Heels have spanked out 152 hits, including 18 doubles, 7 triples and 13 homers, and many of the blows came with run ers on the cushions. The University tennis team is swinging into the "home stretch" of a successiui season. Anotner auai meet with Duke and the annual ama teur tournament promoted by the Hope Valley Country Club are the only events left on the schedule for the Tar Heels. The dual meet with Duke, carded on the University . courts here today, is the last f a fine dual season that has yielded eight victories and one de feat. The lone defeat came at the hands of Princeton on a long northern trip recently. ' Dual victories havte been womoverstrong colleges and country club teams from all over the South Atlantic section. Carolina's meet with Duke brings together clubs which have met on the courts twice before this season In the State Intercollegiate Tourna ment, both Carolina and Duke sent doubles and'singles far into the final rounds of play. Merritt and Shapiro, University pair, emerged victorious over Rogers and Frank, of Duke, in the semi-finals. Yeomans, Carolina star, dashed Duke's final hopes by defeating Frank in the final settoo of the tournament to annex the state singles crown for 1929. Coach Kenfield will probably send the following men into the Duke matches today: Yoemans, No. 1; Shapiro, No. 1; Merritt, No. 3; Wad dell, No. 4; Norwood, No. 5; Scott No, 6. The pairings for the doubles will be as follows: Shapiro and Mer ritt; Yoemans and Scott; Waddell and Norwood.

The student bodieg from both G. C. and N. C. C. W. bedecked in solid white lent their inspiration equally to the Carolinians and the Virginians. Finding no opposing cheering section, the young ladies vied with the Caro lina "student body in sending out their cheers across the diamond. A spirit ed young N. C. C. W. cheer leader led Bill Chandler a merry race for the position of premier yeller for the day. Time and again she urged on her co horts' to lend their voices in cheering the Heels on to victory. Not satis fied with merely performing her own task, she completely ousted Bill from his position and placing herself before the spirited Carolina section led the cheers like the veteran that she pro bably is. It is with regret that Caro lina students must acknowledge that no co-ed could perform such a task. Before- approximately seven thou sand spectators, the Carolina Tar Heels collected four runs to win the annual Carolina-Virginia classic at Greensboro 4-2, making the third time that the Heels have bested the Cava liers this season. Bob Jessup connected with one of Marshall's benders in the 'sixth inn ing for a circuit clouts breaking a 1-1 tie. In one of the bests pitching duels of the season, Jim Ball allowed only eight hits while his Virginia opponent allowed but six. However, their sup port did not match their pitching as a ' total of five errors was made by the members of the two teams. Holland, Sloan, and April starred afield, for the Cavaliers. April, Vir ginia catcher kept the Carolina run ners glued to their sacks while Maus for Carolina did as much for the Cavalier runners. Jackson, substitute second baseman, accepted twelve chances at second without an error. Lufty and Coxe, Carolina men, each made a wonderful catch both catches being line drives. Carolina took the lead in the third frame. Ball was walked and advanc ed to third on Whitehead's single, but was caught between third and home when he over-ran the base and stumbl ed. In the meantime Whitehead ad vanced to third and scored on Sat terf ield's infield out. Virginia tied the count in the fourth when Jessup lost Sloan's high fly in the sun and the latter scored when Byrd singled. Jessup's home run broke the tie in the sixth, and Barnhart likewise scor- f.yy'.y 1 ma Henry Satterfield was the big gun in the Tar Heel attack on the Vir ginia pitcher Friday af tenroon. Sat collected four safeties out - of five tries, two of them going for extra bases. Besides delivering hJ when, they were needed he also crossed the plate on Jessup's hit to score one of the Heels' runs.

That's why a Dayton-driven ball gets over 20 faster That's why the Dayton gives you the jump on speedier players. You've a right to demand facts. Here's the third question of a series : Q. How do thinner steel strings affect the life of the ball ? A. In any case more than 90 of the wear on a tenn's ball is caused by abrasion of the gritty cournot by the racquet.
