First Eleven Scrimmages
Against Reserves to Remove
Rough Spots in Attack.
INJURY LIST DECREASES
Rip Slusser, George Thompson
and June Underwood To Be
Ready for 'Cats.,
A week of football practice
which promises to be stiff and
last until dark every day got
underway yesterday afternoon
on Emerson field " when Coach
Chuck Collins sent the Tar Heels
through a long session at cor
recting the rough spots in the
offense. '
Signal drills by four teams
took up more than half an hour,
and the first team scrimmaged
a reserve eleven at Kenan sta
dium to top off the afternoon's
work.
The scrimmage at the stadium
was concentrated on going down
under punts and on ' running
plays from within the thirty
yard line. Coach Collins said
that much of., the work this
week would be on carrying the
ball over from within the twenty
and thirty yard lines, because of
the fact that scoring punch has
been badly, off in the last three
games.' ': : ; ' ,
The first team lineup yester
day showed : Brown and Walker,
ends ; Hodges and ( McDade,
tackles; Fysal and Mclver,
guards ; Lipscomb, center ;
Branch, quarterback ; Magner
and Nash, halfbacks; and House,
fullback.
During the afternoon Coach
Cerney took the backs and ends
over in a corner of the field and
sent them through a short and
brisk drill on taking, on ends.
Blocking was emphasized for
tackles and guards during the
afternoon also. i; .... , ,
The Tar Heels' injury list last
night was shortened when Train
er Chuck Quinlan announced
that Rip Slusser's injury to his
leg is coming around nicely and
that he will be able to play in
the Davidson game should he re
ceive the call. George Thomp
son's cut over his eye is not caus
ing him a great deal of trouble,
he being out for practice yester
day. June Underwood should be
back in shape for the Davidson
game also, since his hand injury
is getting along nicely. These
were the only casualties on the
injury list after the State game,
and unless someone is hurt dur
ing the practices of the week, the
Tar Heels will be able to hurl
their full strength against the
Presbyterians.
CATAWBA HOLDS
LEADERSHIP OF
N. S. CONFERENCE
Guilford College, Nov 10.
Standing of North State confer
ence teams remained unchanged
this week as Guilford and Elon
scored victories over Lenoir
Rhyne and High Point respec
tively, while Moran's Catawba
Indians were walloping an out
sider. The Salisbury team re
mains in the lead with three vic
tories and no defeats. - , --Guilford
and 'Catawba meet
this week in what promises' to
be one of the best games of the
North State conference season.
This contest is booked for the
Greensboro Memorial stadium
and is to be played Saturday af
ternoon. Catawba, by virtue of
her outstanding showing in
games to date, rules a big favor

game. ' -
Williams continues far in

CAROLINA'S VICTORY OVER
State College admittedly was
quite unimpressive. Any team's
showing is unimpressive when it
gains consistently at midfield
and fails .to come through when
the opponents have ; their backs
to the wall, but there is no deny
ing that the Wolfpack has a
stubborn, fighting and aggres
sive line. Red Espey, Captain
Mac Stout, Coon Silver, Charlie
Cobb and Milo Stroupe would
give any man a fight . for his
position.
Nevertheless the fact remains
that the Tar Heels are lacking
in scoring punch. Coach Collins
sent his charges through a long
scrimmage last Wednesday at
running over touchdowns from
the 10 and 15-yard lines on pow
er plays. The very same drills
on power plays probably will
take up a large portion of the
menu for the Tar Heels work
this week. There is a difference
in being kept away from the
goal line by the heavy; bruising
and powerful line of Georgia
Tech and, being treated in a
similar fashion by the Wolfpack
line, which is admittedly light
er and as a whole unseasoned.
ONE TAR HEEL IMPRESSED
the crowd at the game in spite
of the fact that the team's show
ing Was not so good. Captain
Strud &ash was in there Friday
to make up for a rather poor
season--so far, and when he re
tired from the game at the end
of the third quarter, the Wolves
were aware of the fact that he
had romped all over them. The
Tar Heel captain has hit his
stride, and we believe that this
means trouble for Davidson.
Our barrister seemed to be
dissatisfied with the showing
that he has made so far this
season, for ; Jim Magher's passes
have never been more accurate
than they were last Friday.
Eight yards per try is good
ground gaining, too.
WE SAW THE DUKE BLUE
Devils, or rather Gallopin' Bill
Murray, as our fellow staff writ
er calls him, race around Ken
tucky's ends for the 14-7 vic
tory. We have seen Duke give
two stellar performances this
year, and will say right here
that they have a great ball club
over there. State, Wake Forest,
and Washington and Lee should
cause the Blue Devils little trou
ble for the next three weeks.
According to information re
ceived over THERE last Sat
urday their last game of the
season also will cause them little
trouble. ' x
THE TEAM WHICH DEFEAT-
ed the Tar Heels 26-0 seems to
be just as strong as it was said
to be early in the season. Many
lost faith in the Georgia Bull
dogs when they were tied by
Florida, but their impressive
victory over N. Y. U. puts them
and Southern football even more
to the front. They should be
able to handle Tulane's Green
Wave this Saturday, and their
Thanksgiving booking with Ala
bama will be a great game, even
though the Crimson will, be con
ceded. the edge. - . , ,, ,
DAVIDSON COLLEGE WILL
be putting everything that they
have against the Tar Heels this
Saturday at Davidson, and they
seem to have a rather strong
eleven. Their victory over Wof
ford was quite impressive, de
feating the South Carolina
Mpt Wists bv 13 to 0. This was
only an extra point short of the
drubbing which the Duke Blue
Devils handeo the Terriers a
few weeks ago when they dedi
cated, their new athletic field at
Spartanburg. ,

TAR BABIES TO
PLAY BLUE IMPS
AT DIM TODAY
Carolina Freshmen Ready for
Armistice Day Contest With
Duke Yearlings.
Last night eleven Tar Babies
went off the freshman field jaf
ter a spirited drill, with a strong
determination to do what no oth
er team has been able to accom
plish this year; cross the goal
line of the Blue Imps. ThQ game
is to be played today in Durham
as part of the Armistice . Day
celebration and promises to be a
hard fought and very exciting
game. It will be remembered
that last year the Blue Imps won
by the slender margin of a safe
ty, in a game packed with thrills.
The Tar Babies of this year are
out to avenge this defeat and
will put all their energy into an
nexing a victory.
The Duke team has been
schooled in the. Wade, system,
being coached by i;wo former
Alabama players. These two
coaches were sent by Wade to
get his system started and,
from the success they have had
so far, seemed to have done their
job. They have not only won all
their games to date but have
kept their goal line uncrossed.
They are just as determined to
keep the slate clean as the Tar
Babies are to mar it, so a real
fight will be on hand.
The Tar Babies will have
lunch tomorrow at eleven o'clock
at Swain hall and will leave here
from Emerson field. The game
is scheduled for two-thirty.
The Carolina freshmen are
crippled by the fact that their
star backfield speedster, Alex
Weisker, will be unable to play,
his leg not having responded to
the treatment. Rankin and
Mathews, two stellar ends, are
also incapacitated due to in-
juries, with these handicaps
and the fact that Duke will pre
sent an exceptionally strong
team, the Tar Babies will have
to play much better ball than
they have shown at any time this
year if they expect to cross the
goal line, much less win. Un
doubtedly, there are some excel
lent performers in the line as
Barclay, Mclver, Mulligan, and
Gardner, but these must work
together to make the attack run
smoothly. With the line func
tioning well, Hackney, Whitener
and Phipps should get loose, as
all these men are good; hard run
ners. .
