HIGHWAY PATROL
HERE TO DIRECT
TRAFFIC TODAY
Three Athletic Fields to Be Used
For Parking Space; New
Roads in Use.
The University "village is all
set for the invasion of what is
expected to be a record football
crowd for this state.
Some 30,000 fans are expect
ed. ,
Preparations have been per
fected to handle the big crowd
without congestion, and, if the
plays are carried out, everybody
will be able to get in and out of
Chapel Hill with little or no de
lay. -
Captain Charles D. Farmer
and his deputies of the state
highway patrol will be in charge
of traffic, which fact alone gives
assurance thaf things will move
along smoothly and orderly.
Captain Farmer's men will be
assisted by squads of police from
nearby towns and by tfie local
police force under Chief Lloyd.
Three athletic fields have been
set aside for parking space, and
townspeople have been asked to
keep their cars at home so as
to provide more parking space
along the streets for the visitors.
The Carolina-Virginia game
of 1927 drew .an attendance of
26,000, yet so well were the auto
mobiles routed and directed that
the town was cleared of all traf
fic in less than an hour.
Those in charge of arrange
ments profited by experience
that year, and with a number of
new parking spaces opened up,
the two big new arteries devel
oped to bring in and take away
th crowds, an even better hand
ling of traffic is expected this
year.
The new highways are ex
pected to prove an especially big
factor. ;
Fans coming from the east,
now by way of Raleigh won't
have to pass through Durham,
but can turn off at Nelson, take
the new macadamized road that
intersects the Raleigh-Durham
highway at that point.
This not only reduces the dis
tance from Raleigh to Chapel
Hill from 38 to'28 miles, but also
brings the eastern traffic in over
two roads instead of one.
There is a new short, cut also
to divide the traffic from Greens
boro and points west, and reduce
the distance from Greensboro to
Chapel Hill from 60 to 45 miles.
The new highway is by way
of Burlington and Graham, the
short cut intersecting route. No.
10 at Graham. This road places
Chapel Hill within 150 miles of
Charlotte by the northern route,
as well as the southern route,
and reduces the distance propor
tionately from these points west.
FROSH HARRIERS
BREAK EVEN IN
SEASON'S MEETS
Carolina's freshman cross
country team this year broke
even in a schedule of four meets.
In the early part of the season
the frosh harriers were beaten
by the V. P. I. freshmen by the
score of 26-30. In the meet with
the N. C. State freshmen, the
Tar Babies were victors by a
score of 29-37. The Duke frosh
succumbed to the superior run
ning of the Carolina freshmen
by a score of 23-33. In the
state championship meet held
. here last Saturday as a prelim
inary to the Southern Confer
ence meet, the Duke yearlings
did the unexpected when they
defeated the Tar Babies and the
N. C. State freshmen. The scores
for this meet were: Duke 27,
Carolina 35, and State 67.

"Yank" Spaulding has been
the most consistent fullback for
the Tar Heels all season. Be
cause of his ability on defense
and at receiving passes he has
been recognized as one of the
finest backs in the state.
Ticket Notice
All student tickets on the
South side of the stadium will

on the North side through
Gate 3 only.
(By J. C. Eagles)
Naturally the game this after
noon between the Tar Heels and
Virginia holds the chief interest
for fans in this section. In ad
dition to this feature southern
football offers quite a few other
games of maj or interest. Geor
gia meets Alabama. Tennessee
battles . Kentucky. Duke and
Davidson fight it out and Tulane
engages L. S. U.
Attempts to predict the results
of football, games are always
precarious, affairs. Today's
slate offers more close games
than usual but we make the at
tempt anyhow. ,
Considering Carolina and Vir
ginia first we find that from a
comparison of season's records
the Tar Heels have the edge.
Since this is a generally conced
ed idea we will dismiss with any
further discussion of the battle
srhfiduled for this afternoon in
Kenan stadium.
Now the Georgia-Alabama
clash brings together two of the
south's most outstanding elev
ens. Neither boasts a perfect
record, but each has registered
victories over exceptionally pow
erful teams and each has been a
consistent winner all fall. While
the Bulldogs are noted chiefly
for their defense thei Crimson
Tide relies chiefly on a driving
offensive. Each club has a well
rounded combination. Interest
ing " will be the fight between
Rothstein of Georgia and Holm
of Alabama for the fullback posi
tion on the mythical all-southern
eleven. On their showing today
depends each star's chance for
the honor. Taking everything

TEAM COIilPLETES '
EXCELLENT YEAR
Coach Ransom's Runners Win
Fourth Consecutive Southern
Conference Title; One Defeat.
The shades of Carolina's by
gone harriers, Henderson, Fish
er, and Elliott seemingly inspir
ed the 1929 Tar Heels to
a victory over ten other South
ern Conference teams last Satur
day afternoon, giving the Uni
versity its fourth consecutive
championship title in this sport.
A biting wind, sleet, and muddy
course were not sufficient to
daunt the spirit of the local hill-and-dalers.
Named as under
dogs in this meet, because of
a previous defeat by the V. P, I.
team, the Tar Heels retained
their title by a decisive margin,
and defeated the "cream of the
South."
1
The 1929 cross country team
did not have as smooth-going a
course as might be supposed. It
had a goodly share of hard luck,
with illness eliminating some of
the safest bets at the crucial
moment. First it was Lowry,
who was unable to participate in
the N. C. State, and Duke meets
because of an abscessed tooth.
Then Creighton Wrenn, a three
year letter man, was taken ill
with mumps and was unable to
run in the Duke and Southern
Conference meets. Finally, HQ
ward Simpson, one of the best
reserves, was also eliminated by
the mumps.
Notwithstanding, the Tar Heel
harriers, under the able tutelage
of Coach Dale Hanson, last Sat
urday completed a successful
season with three victories and
one deieat. Tnis aeteat was
early in the season." Miles and
Palmer, V. P. I.'s stellar runners,
finished ahead of Barkley, Bau
com and Lowry in this meet.
The final score was 27-33.
In the Carolina-N. C. State
meet, a crowd of 10,000 in at
tendance at the gridiron contest
between the two schools watch
ed Barkley, Baucom, Phoenix,
Pierce, and Wrenn, cross the
finishing line hand-in-hand to
beat the State harriersith the
lowest score possible in a cross
country meet. The score for this
meet was 15-45.
The ancient rivalry between
Carolina and Duke manifested
itself in the grim determination
of the Tar Heels to avenge the
defeat administered by the Blue
Devils last year. This run was
hard fought from start to finish',
but the Tar Heels achieved their
aim, an.d Duke was defeated de
cisively by a ' score of 21-39.
Captain Barkley, Baucom, and
Phoenix were the leading Caro
lina men in this run.

that Alabama will come qut in

Against Washington and Lee he
tossed passes all over the field.
Faulconer, fullback, also passes
while Thomas, sophomore star,
and Kaminer give the Cavaliers
a dangerous combination in the
air. Passes gave the Tar Heels
trouble last fall and Sloan will
make constant use of them this
afternoon. Carolina has relied
on passes all season to score. All
the Tar Heel backs toss and
catch them. The ends catch
them. Ward will do most of the
tossing for the starting back
field, but Spaulding is used often
for this Purpose.
But it is Carolina's reserve
strength which has. enabled the
Tar Heels to pile up impressive
wins. Magner, Maus, Jackson,
Erickson, Wyrick, House, Slus
ser and Harden give Coach Col
lins a fine array, of . backs to in
ject into the game. In the line
all positions are fortified. Gil
breath, Eskew, Hudson, Thomp
son, Dortch, Harper, Parsley,
Brown and Nelson are ready to
step into the line positions.
Coach Abell has his squad in
the best of condition and will be
able to use a full quota of sub
stitutes. ' Gravatt; -Moncure, Or

OLD TEAM MATES
OPPONENTS TODAY
Virginia Prep Schools Furnish
Many Players for Cavaliers
and Tar Heels.
When Virginia and Carolina
meet this afternoon several old
acquaintances and rivalries of
the gridiron will be renewed.
Former teammates will meet as
rivals and former rivals will
play under the same flag.
Episcopal" High school has giv
en Gravatt, Moncure, Orrick,
Faulconer, Taylor, Lankford,
Bryant and Day to the Virginia
squad. This afternoon they will
meet, as a rival instead of as a
teammate Gavin Dortch, Caro
lina tackle. Dortch is a former
Episcopal High captain.
Three Virginia players and
four Carolina players played to
gether at Woodberry Forest.
Meeting today as rivals will be
Bill Ivey, John Wylly and John
Peyton of Virginia, and Strud
Nash, George Thompson, Tom
Alexander and Julian Fenner of
Carolina. '
The Woodberry and Episcopal
High football teams meet every
year. As there are playersfrom
both schools on each team, to
day's game will see the renewal
of rivalries formed in prep
i school days. "Rip" Slusser,
Carolina halfback, starred at
Augusta Military Academy. He
can be counted on to do his share
of carrying on these rivalries.
Especially hard fought and in
teresting should be the battle be
tween the two centers. Before

going to Episcopal High, George
Taylor played center at Greens
boro high school. He has
made the grade at Virginia and
is one of the best centers in the
Old Dominion. Facing him to
day will be Ned Iipscomb, also
a former Greensboro center,
who has settled the fears of those
who mourned the loss of Harry
Schwartz. Since both have de
veloped into good college play
ers, it's a sure thing that neither
of the two is going to yield to
the other without a hard fight.
The struggle for supremacy be
tween Taylor and Lipscomb
should prove to be one of the
game's most interesting features.
Even in the days when Vir
ginia won the annual classic
regularly all games between
these two institutions were hard
fought. In modern times the
game has come to be regarded
as one whose result is never set
tled until the final whistle. This
year, added to the traditional
spirited fight between the two
teams, there will be this renewal
of rivalries. Every player is
anxious to settle any question of
supremacy, the answer to which
may have been left in doubt, in
today's game.
This added zest, due to the
personal contacts between the
members of both squads, will do
much to make this game one of
the most colorful in the history
of the classic series. -
