Wake Forest Ekes Out Carolina, 14-13
POlf
with
Irwin SmaUwood
IT HAPPENED AGAIN: The opponent was outplayed, the
Tar Heels lost, this time to the Demon Deacons from Wake For
est. But one point was made clear in the bitter struggle on the
turf of Kenan stadium Saturday, that Coach Carl Snavely's eleven
will be no pushover for Duke this week-end.
On the contrary, judging from the performance Saturday, Carolina should
provide a constant threat to the highly-touted Dukesters and the chances
for beating the arch rivals from Durham way looked better than they have
in some time. Wake Forest was almost an equal match for Coach Eddie
Cameron's (or should we say Col. Wallace Wade's) charges when they had
George Clark, Bear Knotts and Jim Larue. These three spark plugs of the
Duke eleven are gone, though, and that puts Wake Forest on a higher level
than the Blue Devils as far as most observers are concerned.
However, the game will by no means be under Tar Heel control. ' In fact,
on paper Carolina will be the decided underdog. Carolina out-fought the
Deacons, and in view of that should be almost an even match for the Blue
Devils. The only thing left to do is to wait, but one thing is assured already,
the Tar Heels will be in there fighting, as they have shown they could against
Tennessee, Georgia Tech and now Wake Forest, and the Dukesters are far
from having the annual classic in the bag. And Snavely will be there with
all his tricks, with his footballers keyed high. '
There is one more thing that will figure in the tussle with Duke Saturday
and that is this point of school spirit, and as Athletic Director "Coach Bob"
Fetzer brough out at the pep meeting Friday, many times "this thing called
spirit can tell the tale. I remember one time back When the old professor
Kay Kyser was here," Coach Bob continued. "There was one game that it
looked impossible for us to win, for the spirit was at a low level. But old
Kay got out and got the students aroused, and that as much as anything
was responsible for our. victory." With that in mind, we should begin now
to start things rolling. Let the boys know you are behind them, and with
your confidence, they will go a lot further toward beating the Blue Devil
into defeat come Saturday afternoon.
SIDELINE NOTES: This boy Chunk Simmons, who played his high school
ball for Central in 1941-42, is going to be a "great back as soon as he is able
to work into our system," King Carl Snavely opined after the Deacon tilt
Saturday . . . Another relatively new man in the lineup, Bob Kennedy, made
quite an impression on the fans, as did little Merl Norcross, who played
well till he was injured. Paul Rizzo, No. 1 blocking back, had a tough break
too, getting his bad ankle hit while going for a pass early in the game,
, His loss was felt before the day was over . . . Peahead Walker, Wake Forest
mentor, was none too pleased with the Snavely punt formation shift. "This
shift is illegal," he said, "it hurt us four times today. It is against both
the rules and the spirit of the game." ... It was a good catch Max Cook
made of Warren's pass for a touchdown. Two Deacs touched it before it
settled in Cook's arms ... Jim Lalanne, lieutenant in the Navy, was around
for the game Saturday. ... Billy Kelly, who coaches the .Camp Lejeune
swimmers, was here too, as was Joe Murnick, former boxing coach, who is
now an athletic specialist at Norfolk. . . . Chuck Erickson, who was back
field coach under Jim Tatum, and who coached for several years before that,
is back around the Hill.

ranked the number one team in the
country last year will - face a tough
slate of meets this season which in
cludes engagements with Army, Navy,
Ohio State, Cornell, Georgia Tech,
Duke and N. C. State.
With one of the hardest schedules
in recent -years, Coach Casey is push

tanksters in good condition and the
squad is shaping up to suit the
youthful mentor.
Several Vets Back
Strengthened with the returning of
several of last year's swimmers, the
Blue Dolphins will be gunning for
their third consecutive season with
out a defeat.

By Eddie Allen
As one Carolinian said to another,
"It's a long way between victories,"
and when North Carolina's strong
young Tar Heels take on Duke at Dur
ham Saturday they will be seeking
their first win over Duke since Badin's
Joe Austin gathered in the pass which
spelled a 6-3 triumph in 1940. .......
Since then evil days have befallen
the Tar Heels in their annual season's
highlight battle. In 1941 it was the
Rose Bowl Dukes and Steve Lach
sweeping to a 20-0 margin. A year
later there came a 13-13 tie, but still
no victory rathei than that of a moral
nature. In 1943, horrible year, the
mighty Devils racked up two wins, 14
to 7 and 27-6, and last season they ran
away with their most one-sided
triumph of all, 33-0.
The form books this time give Carl
Snavely's youngesters no chance of
victory, but this is one game that is
definitely played on a football field and
not paper. Indeed, if fate is to take a
hand in the proceedings, it would have
seemed to have cast already a fore
shadowing omen.
Beginning with their season's open
er against Camp Lee, the Tar Heels
have alternately won and lost every
game, thus bringing their record to
date even at four and four. It is signi
ficant that last week they lost a 14-13
heartbreaker to Wake Forest, thus
making this a winning week if the un
usual pattern of their records holds
true.
Coach Snavely reports that his
youngsters should be in good shape for
their climactic tussle, and the work
shown by a quartet of tailback per
formers Tom Gorman, Bob Warren,
Merl Norcross, and Chunk Simmions
against Wake Forest, theyxan be ex
pected to show a little more potent
offensive punch, to date a bit too
absent. The line, too, should be in top
shape for battle against Duke's well
oiled attack, which previously has gone
down only to unbeaten Army and
Navy. .

Tar Heels Outplay
Deacons But Lose
By Irwin SmaUwood
Before a crowd of 20,000
cheering fans the Carolina Tar
Heels dropped a heartbreaker to
a smart, but outplayed, Wake
Forest eleven -in Kenan stadium
Saturday by the one-point mar
gin of 13-14.
Coach Peahead Walker's Demon -
Deacons from the Baptist institution
down the road a piece, fought with
slight upper hand in the opening
quarter, and their offensiveness paid
off with 12 minutes and 40 seconds
jone, when Nick Sacrinty plunged over
rom the one-foot line after a sus
tained drive of 42 yards.
Deacons Score
The Deacs got the ball on the Caro
lina 42 when a bad punt went out of
bounds. The touchdown drive was
almost solely a Sacrinty job, Nick
passing to Bo for 12 yards and a first
down to get things started. After
another aerial failed, Nick raced 11
yards on foot for another first down,
following this by a pass to Ognovich
for a first down on the Tar Heel one
foot line. Nick Sacrinty went over
from there for the score, and Bo Sa
crinty booted the all-important extra
point.
Just before the first half ended Tom
Gorman, big offensive punch on two
threatening but unsuccessful drives,
fell on a fumble by Wake Forest's
Rock Brinkley on the Deacon 30. A
short pass to Bob Cox and a run by
Bill Kennedy netted a first down, and
Kennedy personally made another in
two line plays, giving the Tar Heels
the ball on the Wake Forest nine,
first and goal.
A time out pushed the Carolina lads
back five yards, and three pass at
tempts and a running play failed to
gain an inch and the Deacons got pos
session of the ball in time to run three
plays before the half time intermission.
On the third play, big Tar Heel tackle
Stan Marczyk recovered a Deacon
fumble, but there was no time left for
Carolina to do any good.
Tar Heels Roll
Immediately after the second half
got underway, the Tar Heel offensive
machine began to roll, and before three
minutes had passed, the Carolina lads
were on the Wake Forest six with a
first down. The drive started on the
Carolina 49, with a 13-yard pass from
Gorman to Meade, runs by Voris and
Gorman, and a final 16-yard aerial
from Gorman to Cox netting the yard
age.
Gorman tried a fake pass play and
gained a yard, but three successive
pass attempts failed and Wake Forest
took over on its own six, putting up a
successful goal line stand for the sec
ond time within 10 minutes of playing
time.
