Back In Form r Tar Heels for their V. P. I. bat tle in Kenan stadium here at 2:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The Georgia defeat disclosed notable defects. The coaches ,have been driving away, night and day, in field practice after noons and "skull practice" nights in an effort to eliminate these flaws. 1 If the Tar Heels don't show a smooth and finished attack against. the strong Gob blers, the fault won't be ascribed to the coaches. And it 'seems the Tar . Heels will need all the smoothness and finesse they can muster. The Gobblers rolled up big scores on Roanoke, Hampden-Sidney and William and Mary, and showed even greater strength in holding Pennsylvania to a 14-8 count. The great ball carrier, Frank Peake, is gone, but With Tomko, Spear, Owens and Hooper all taking turns at carrying the ball instead of letting; Pe'dkecarry it three of five tries, and with a fine line, the Gobblers present a real threat to. the Tar Heels', maintaining their place at the forefront of the Southern Con ference race. Although Mr. Peake should be missed aplenty, theEBony Ex press of 1929 is boastinga bet ter balanced backfield than' "that of last season. And what is still more alarming for Tar Heel supporters Macauley McEver and Buckner Green, two Poly , backs who have been laid off with injuries since the beginning of the season, will be back in the lineup Saturday. Macauley McEver is the brother of Gene McEver of Tennessee fame and was just launching into sensa- tional ground .gaining antics when struck down in the open- ing game of the season. Both line and backfieid prom ) , ise to show more drive Satur day, by virtue of this week's gruelling preparation, and by virtue of the return to the lineup of Henry House, driving full i back, and Bill Koenig, 190-pound veteran tackle. Both men rate about top-notch, at their respec- i tive positions, and both were out of the Georgia game. Pete Wyrick, veteran quarter back, out for three weeks with a back injury, will probably not get in, according to word today ; from Dr. Foy Roberson, advis ory physician, nor Julian Fen- ner, veteran end, wno was in jured in the Georgia game. Johnny Branch, sensational sophomore, who ran the team against Georgia Tech and Geor gia, will call the signals again. Herb Nelson, who put up a great game against Georgia Tech, may be shifted from left to right end to fill Fenner's post. (By Frank Smathers) -Under Crayton Rowe's in struction fall work in boxing is enjoying great popularity. With the addition of new equipment and regular classes for begin ners there has been an influx which has swelled the number of enthusiasts to approximately fifty. Each afternoon from four to six the ring is filled with box ers, coaching classes are under way, the bags are .struiriming busily, skipping ropes are fly ing, as the southern champions are preparing for another heavy season.

P. I. RIVALRY (By Henry L. Anderson) ? CCORDING to reports from the V. P. I. strong hold at Blacks burg, the Gob blers are bend ing every x effort to be in top form for the .game here Saturday. Although Green's return to the V. P. I; tackle adds much to their forward strength, the loss of. Davis, 234 pound tackle, offsets this ffain.

Only four intramural games were played yesterday, the Zeta Psi-Kappa Psi game being post poned. The results were as f ol- lows: Beta Theta fi ana ineia Chi tied up, 6-6 ; Pi Kappa Alpha won from Sigma Alpha Epsilon by five first downs to three; Delta Kappa Epsilon won from Chi Phi by a forfeit, 1-0; Sigma Nu won from Phi Delta Theta 14-0. The' schedule for today is as follows: v 3 :30dld East vs. Rufiin, . Old West vs. "G." 4:30 Mangum vs. "I," "j" vs, "Fr Carr. vs. Steele. biers having mowed down three strong teans . already and hav ing held Pennsylvania to 14-8, it looks like another great struggle is in the offing. ' Comparative Scores Some, .of the University of Georgia's students did some fig uring not long ago whereby, after the defeat of Carolina, they were possibly the best team in the south. Davidson might claim an ex tremely, high rating by the fol lowing figures. Oglethorpe beat Georgia, 13 to 7 ; Citadel defeat ed Oglethorpe, 18-0 ; Davidson beat Citadel, 7 to 6 so Davidson has a 38 to 13 margin over the .University of Georgia. Georgia beat Carolina 19 to 12, so Davidson, on paper, should defeat Carolina 57-25. In the game . this week , between the Wildcats and the Demon Deacons the 'Cats, on paper, should come out victorious by 105 to 25, be cause Carolina took Wake in tow 48-0. " To off set the optimistic spirit which reigns over the campus at ' Blacksburg is the showing that the Tar Heel varsity is mak ing against the Tar Babies in practice. The old line that, met Tech will be back in trim with the exception of Parsley at right end in place of Fenner. Koenigj although practicing with the vet eran line, may not start the game Saturday. The others Lipscomb, Adkins, Farris,' Es kew and Holt are in top form. Wyrick probably will not be in shape for this game. In practice the-veteran line is being followed by Branchy quar terback; Slusser and Magner, halfs, and Harden, full. Alter nating with this backfield are Jackson, Nash and Ward, and Spauldmg. Many of those - who saw the V. P. I.-Pennsylvaiiia game say that the score indicates very lit tle the difference between the two teams. The 14-8 score was not more, according to TepoTts, merely because Pennsylvania was saving up for the nard game the following rweek. Tomorrow's game, however, won't be a walk away for either team. V. N. C. is out to avenge its defeat, by two extra points, of last year and V. P. I. will strive to dupli cate this feat, if possible. "V. P. I., 16 North Carolina, 14," is painted in large letters on signs, placards and barracks at Blacksburg: After Carolina's defeat of Tech and defeat by Georgia, V. P. I. seems to be anxious to have a try at the "fallen hero." How much stock the Gobblers are placing in last Saturday's score? Probably the same amount that they are plac ing in extra points. ' - To replace Peake, who was the star in V. P. Is victory over the Tar Heels last year," there is Spear, speedy halfback, Tommy Tomko, tooted ball carrier, and Mac McEver, another spectacu lar back who will probably be recovered enough from injuries to return to the lineup. Mac is af brother of the famous Gene McEver, Tennessee's flash and nominee for an All-American backfield berth. McEyer, at V. ! P. I., is reported as being almost as flashy a back as his brother. Not having seen Mac in action it is hard for the Tar Heel to compare him with the Carolina-; backs but Saturday we will prob ably see how he will look against Branch, Magner, Nash, Slusser, Ward, Spaulding, House, Har den, Jackson, Maus, etc. In the Davidson-Wake Forest game the Wildcats are being given 3 to 2 odds to win and even money to - win by seven points. Thad Brocks Davidson Captain and end, will probably be the mainstay of another Davidson victory as he was against Citadel last week. Carolina is retaining fourth place in the Southern Confer ence scoring so far this season with a total of 121 points. The Clemson college Tigers are setting the pace for the Con ference teams so far this season. In five games the powerful Tigers under Coach Josh Cody have rolled up a grand total of 182 points, and have been scored on only three times. Louisiana State's machine is Dressing: Clemson hard. Russ x Cohen's Bengals have played one game less than their South Carolina brethren, but have chalked up 175 points against 20 for their opponents. - Tulane's big Green Wave is in third place with 147 points for four games. 1 Other conference teams above the hundred mark are Kentucky arid Tennessee, each with 118 Alabama with 116 and Washing ton and Lee with 103. Kentuckv has scored 118 points in three games. Tenn essee required four games to resrister the same total. Both 0 Kentucky and Tennessee's goal lines have been crossed but once. The University of Mississippi has been scored on more than any other team with a total of 117 points standing against the Hazel outfit.

By comparison on paper they are given a large margin, but com mon sense will hold the score down. Davidson beat Citadel, Citadel beat Oglethorpe, Ogle thorpe beat Georgia, . Georgia beat Carolina, and Carolina stomped on Wake Forest 48-0.
