It's powerfully difficult to prognosticate about who's going to Win when the football teams representing the universities of North Carolina and Virginia re new their 36-year rivalry in Kenan" stadium here Thanksgiv ing day. ' : And no small wonder! For, believe it or not, neither team, save one time, was won a victory since the world war by a margin of more than 3 to 7 points. That exception was in ,1920 when Vir ginia won 14 to 0. Carolina holds the edge on the series since the . war. The Tar Heels have won five times as compared .to three for Virginia, and two games have been ties. Virginia, however,, holds the edge on the victories for the 36 year series. Five of the ten games played since the war have been on Cava lier territory, and Virginia has won three of the five. The Tar Heel victories on the road came when the undefeated South At lantic champions of 1922 won by a 10 to 7 count and when the 1928 Tar Heels staged their thrilling last-minute finish , for a 24-20 , victory. Other; games at Charlottesville have yielded victories for Virginia of 14 to 0 in 1920, 7 to 0 in 1924, and 3 to 0 in 1926. It is another tale when you glance at the scores of games in North Carolina, for the Tar Heels have won three and tied two out of five starts. r The Tar Heels came back from tRe three year argument with the Germans and slipped a 6 to 0 licking over - on Tofiy Camp bell's Virginians here in 1919, and "Red" Johnson and Runt Lowe repeated the stunt 7 to 3 on Emerson field here in 1921 The 1923 and 1925 games were tied 0 to 0 and 3 to 3, but the Tar Heels decidated their new Kenan Memorial stadium here in 1927 with a 14 to 13 victory. The Cavaliers have scored 70 points in the ten games, the Tax Heels 64, and the average dif ference between the scores has been just 4 points. ! Chapel Hill High Romps Henderson Chapel 'Hill high schoo swamped Henderson 'high 39 to 0 on Emerson field Friday. Lawrence, local end, featured with four touchdowns after re reiving passes. Upchurch and Council delivered one each. The playing of Deshidds, Mc Knight and Captain King was of stellar quality. Barber, sub for Council at quarter, looked good while Teague, Bob Ray and Pendergraph starred in the line Henderson showed signs of good football but never threatened to score- on the Hillians.

State today, but that was about all. The final score was 19-12. And the boys from West Dur ham didn't show any too much of their devilish and fiendish ferocity. - - The Wolf pack backfield opened with an exhibition of "what the well coached football player doesn't do," just as "what the well dressed man doesn't wear." Duke got the breaks and two fumbles and made two touch downs. Robeson, the incomparable, made a nifty catch of Sam Buie's 20-yard heave and added a 10 yarcTrun for the first. Buie j skirted and on a nice run for the second. " That was the first quarter. Neither team could make con certed gains at the line and right here is due a word of praise for the Duke line it was oh the whole mighty strong. Half of Buie's heaves wound up in the arms of surprised Wolfies. Russ came in, and Russ can pass, but the Duke catchers were undetectable. State got down the field once in the second half but Duke held. They exchanged fumbles and State got the better of the bar gain, because Robeson's fumble' was on Duke's 15-yard line. Duke and State were both surprised when "Flip" Edmondson, the big pass and, run man, breezed through a iwagon-hole at right tackle on the first play there after for a touchdown. Beaver had replaced Dobeson, needless to say, when' the Hen derson boy broke the rules and1 fumbled on the 15-yard line. ' Beaver got knocked looping on the kickoff, and P. O. Brewer came into the Duke backfield. TJiis Winston-Salem lad packed the big punch of the day, and he is the principal man Caro lina is going to have to watch. His driving was the principal reason Duke got the ball down to State's 13-yard line. Buie essayed to help him out here, and the ball wrent over. Stout State's center, spiraled the ball into the backfield and the Wolfies couldn't decide whose it was. Melton won the toss and recovered at the last minute within inches of the goal. A poor kick and Duke had the ball on the 35-yard line and - was tearing back again. They weren't to be denied this time. Brewer assaulted the line a couple of times. The; shifty Hurray, who had just gotten going, made a nice spear of Buie's pass and it was first and tendon the five-yard line. Buie hit the line and Beaver plunged it over. Buie got the point. Behind 19 to 6, State pulled a fighting finish that the authors of "Sport Story would find it hard to equal. - . Buie had a bad kickoff,. and State returned to her own 46 yard line. Johnny Johnson" re trieved his first-half errors with a beautiful catch of Edmondson's pass ; to move it to K Duke's 30 yard line. Melton made six on another pass. 1 Johnson leaped out of a mass of Devils to take another of Edmondson's heaves, and on a cutback and some nifty hip-moving got down to the 10 yard line.' Duke's line crumbled at this point. Johnson got nine yards ona first assault at left tackle, and crashed center for the touch down.: ;.. ;': '7,.;-" v Dr. J. P.
