This will be the third game on the regular slate between the two clubs, but the second was cancelled in honor of the death of the late President Roosevelt last Saturday. The can celled game may be played at a later date, but aj yet no definite plans have been made. Coach Bunn Hearn is expected to send veteran Red Forrest against the Terrors, who lost to the locals in the first meeting of the two clubs two weeks ago. Forrest was the victim of a hard-hitting Cherry Point team last Monday, 4-2, but he pitched a good game in scattering 10 base knocks and fanning 10 Batsmen. - The infield will remain intact for the tilt this afternoon at 3 o'clock with State, and the outfield will be the same that started against the Naval Academy. Gregory, Thompson, Zientek and Colones will be in the in field, with Elger, .Fahey and Mullen rounding out tie outfield. Frazier will be behind the .plate, catching Forrest. Carolina was first to score in the non-loop encounter on the local dia mond, pushing across a lone tally in the last of the third inning on a single by second baseman Thompson and another one-base blow by Bob Fahey. The Marines from the air base at Cherry Point came back quickly in the - first half of the fourth with a single tally to tie the score, and then the veteran Cherry Pointers- added another in the top of the fifth by vir tue of a hit and an error. In the last part of the fifth frame Red Forrest came through with a mighty triple to right field and scored a moment later on an outfield fly by Thompson to again send the game into a deadlock. Both teams were scoreless in the sixth and seventh innings, but the Marines broke loose in the final pair to score two more runs to ice the game. Four of Cherry Point's 10 hits came in these last two innings. Colones singled and . Fahey walked to put two men on base for Coach Hearn's lads in the eighth stanza, but the two runners died on the bases. Also in the sixth Allen Elger put on a fine performance for Carolina and offered a good chance to score. The hard-hitting left fielder doubled and stole third with none out, but his ef forts went for naught as the next two men fanned and the third ground ed out. Again in the final part of the ninth the Tar Heels missed another good chance to score and possibly win the game. With none out, Leo Mullen, playing in right field sjr.ce the second inning when Chappell was injured, slammed a hard drive past the center fielder for a home run, only to be called out for failing, to touch first base. This took the life out of the local crew, although the next man up walked, ' and a fielder's choice and an outfield fly ended the fray. Hits stood 10 to five in favor of the Cherry Point club, but neither the score nor the hits truly told the story of the game. It was a nip-and- tuck battle all the way, and it was the superior hitting power of the Ma rines that finally told the story. The Naval Academy handed the locals their second loss 'in a week, Wednesday afternoon in Annapolis, trouncing the Tar Heels, 13-2, behind two-hit hurling. The two teams fought on even terms for the first seven in nings, but a nine-run splurge m the eighth for Navy decided. the game. Four errors were committed by Carolina in that fatal eighth inning, and that, along with five hits, netted the Middies nine runs. The Navy banged out 11 hits all told and made three miscues. CPU To View Truman At Roundtable Talk At its regular meeting in the Grail Room at Graham Memorial Sunday night at 8 o'clock the Carolina Politlca Union will discuss the possibile course of our nation under the guidance o: President Truman.

PreppingHard Trackmen For Event With Marines Carolina's men of the cinder trail will be host to Cherry Point in their first home meet of the 1945 season next Saturday, April 28. The event with the Marines marks the first of four scheduled clashes on successive week-ends for Coach Dale Ranson's lads. Following the run with Cherry Point, which will be staged .here in Fetzer stadium, the Tar Heels will begin hard work immediately for a meet with the Naval Academy in Annapolis May 5. On May 12, UNC entertains the Duke Blue Devils in another traditional bat tle between the arch rival schools. After the home meet with Duke, Carolina will travel, to the University of Virginia to run against the Cava liers, May 19. The next week will be a free date for the Tar Heel trackmen, but on June 2 the annual AAU open track meet will be staged here again, throwing open its entry doors to any amateur athletes of this region. For the past week, Coach Ranson has been sending his potential runners through hard conditioning drills, after losing the ini&l battle with Georgia Tech last week. The Tar Heel squad contains no really outstanding per fnrmprs. but many have shown much good improvement and are likely to round into winners before the season is gone.

Tennis Sextet Faces Indians At 2 O'clock William And Mary Invades Courtmen After their opening match with William and Mary was cancelled last week-end, the Tar Heel netters will play host to the Indians' sextet from Wil liamsburg this afternoon at 2 o'clock on tjie varsity tennis courts. Today's encounter will be the initial test for Coach Kenfield's untried rac quetmen. Coach Kenfield's tennis teams usu ally hold the reputation of being the finest in the country, but this year's edition will undoubtedly be a different story. Having onl yone player with previous college experience, the vet eran court mentor has worked from scratch in building his 1945 net squad. This will be the first tennis en gagement between these arch-rivals in the history of the game at Caro line. William and Mary sports a well rounded, net outfit, despite the three losses already suffered at the expense of Army, Navy and N.Y.U. Cliff Tuttle, the Tar Heels lone vet eran racquet handler is counted on to come through in the number one posi tion. Tuttle performed on the 1942 tennis team before he went into the service and is back at tennis after be ing discharged. Tuttle will face Tut Bartzen, star netter for the visiting team. Bartzen holds a win over Ar my's Frank Mehener. Duke Wilder, NROTC trainee, is a sure bet for the second berth on the net team and is slated to match up with Bren Macken this afternoon. Wilder played freshman tennis at Tulane University last' season and has de veloped into a capable courtman in his pre-season workouts. Coach Kenfield had not decided on his line-up at the time the Tar Heel went to press, but he will choose from the following: Cliff Tuttle, Duke Wil der, Roy Rowe, Mac Davis, Ed Baity, Billy Weathers, Larry Probstein, John ny May, Vernon Cartner and Buddy Sandlin.
