Frank Thompson Gym, Ral
eigh, Feb. 19. Trailing five
points midway in the second
half, Carolina's White Phantoms
staged a great rally, to go nine
points ahead to finally defeat
State, 37-35, in a thrilling bat
tle here tonight. As- a result of
the victory Carolina won the Big
Five cage championship for the
second successive year.
The Red Terrors took the lead
from the start, counting five
points before the Tar Heels got
under way. State once held a
17-11 lead during the first half,
but in a last minute rally Caro
lina cut the margin to 17-15 at
half time. -Tack

The second half saw the Wolf
rack again go into long leads
and the Phan
toms pull up
State had a 27-
22 margin when
the Tar Heels
started their big
rally. With Jim
McCachren and
Mel Nelson lead
ing the winners'
play, Carolina
scored 14 points while the Red
Terrors could get but one good
foul.
Leading 37-28, the Tar Heels
were satisfied and relaxed almost
too much. Carolina attempted
to freeze, but State put on a
sprint for seven straight points
before the final gun stopped the

Torrance to Come
Jack Torrance is the most fa
mous of the Jay-Cee entrants.
Being a world record holder in
the shot put, there is little doubt
as to the fact that the L. S. U.
man-mountain will win his eyent,
but it is a question as to just
how far he will toss the iron ball.

the Universities of North

in a basketball game in the

The White Phantoms have
yet to lose a game on the

fact, the last time this hap
pened was last year against
these same Gamecocks.
In .their first encounter of
the year North Carolina
nosed out the sandlappers,
32-31, but only by virtue of

Novich Is Hampered by Linger

DIEHL AIMING FOR TAYLOR
The Carolina pugilists ut
the finishing touches to a hard
season of training yesterday af
ternoon in the Tin Can. Today,
the mittmen will take light
workouts before departing for
Charlottesville and the South
ern conference. "The team is in
fair shape despite the casualties
of certain members of the squad.
The chief worry of Coach
Rowe is the lingering illness of
Maxie Novich, ace light heavy
weight. Novich has been suf
fering from a head cold for the
past two weeks' and has not
recuperated as soon as expected.
Sam Giddins is still suffering
sore shoulder that has slowed
him up a great deal the latter
part of the season. He is going
to meet some tough opposition in
the middleweight class and
wants to be in the best possible
shape for such men as Fabri of
State , Kaplin of Virginia, and
Matulewicz of Duke.
Marion Diehl is coming along
well in spite of a troublesome
nose. It was the worry of his
breathing apparatus that caused
Diehl to be so cautious in his
scrap with Taylor, and this
probably cost him a victory.

The failure of any upsets to
develop in yesterday's session
of intr-mural basketball com
petition sent five teams, three

Phi Kappa Sigma defeated

over Theta Kappa Nu in the
fifth encounter.
Phi Kap Sigs Lead
The Phi Kappa Sigs got off to
a fast start in their contest with
Beta Theta Pi, and the latter,
though coming close on several
occasions, could never tie mat
ters up. The winners held a 14

a 24-20 lead at the third quar

DAY FEATURED BY
INTRA-SQUAD TILT
Regular Game Will Be Highlight
of Winter Football Practice.
Coach Carl Snavely will send
his grid protegees through a
hard scrimmage this afternoon
in Kenan, as one of the sport
features of the student-faculty
day. The intra-squad game will
start at 2 :30 o'clock.
Winter work has progressed
rapidly during the last month,
and the team is now at its peak.
Fundamentals have been stress
ed, while play formations have
also received much attention.
Whites vs. Blues
The "Whites" will likely be
composed of last year's regulars
and leading veterans, while the
"Blue" club is made up leading
reserves and frosh.
Most of last fall's highly suc
cessful eleven are on hand at
practice, and will be ready for
this year's edition. Although
Barclay, Tatum, Kahn, and
Shaffer will be missed, Coach
Snavely v has found material to
fill those gaj)s.
Jim Hutchins has been show
ing up well in drills, as well as
Dick Buck on the flank position.
Andy Bershak has led the year
lings by turning in some fine
playing at end. Mclver and
Dithave also shown up well.

WIN OVER DEVILS
Umstead May Be in Lineup as
Tar Heels Close Season in
Scrap with Duke There.
Carolina will be seeking its
first Big Five victory when the
Tar Heels clash with the Duke
Blue Devils in Durham Satur
day. Coach Quinlan's team will
be engaging in its last dual test
of the year..
In their first Big Five en
counter, State drubbed Carolina
to the tune of an 18-6 count. The
losers were able to win but two
matches, Umstead winning over
Bell and Captain Efland over
Furr on time decisions.
Umstead May Fight
Davidson nosed out the Tar
Heels last Friday 16-14, but
many Carolina supporters think
that victory would have chang
ed hands had Umstead been able
to compete. Umstead will prob
ably be ready to start against
the Blue Devils.
Although the meet Saturday
has no bearing at all on the
state championship, Carolina
will be out to close its season
with a win over Duke. After a
disastrous year in 1934, 'the
Carolinians romped over the

BEAT WOLFLETS
IN 37-33 THRILLER
State Rally Cut Short; Earl Ruth
Stars; Berry Leads Losers.
Frank Thompson Gym, Ral
eigh, Feb. 19. The title of
state freshman champions f ellv
to the rollicking Tar Babies
when they overcame a powerful
State yearling quintet 37-33
here tonight before a packed
crowd.
Playing their only opponent
to have scored a victory over
them this season, the frosh kept
their heads up and played bang
up ball every minute of the en
counter. A remarkable incident
shows the consistency of the
Tar Babies last night for during
the first seven minutes of the
game, the Carolina sharpshoot
ers only missed one shot at the
basket and sunk seven.
Ruth Leads Babies
Earl Ruth, brilliant guard,
again starred for the Babies,
scoring 13 points and was fol
lowed by Pete Mullis who drop
ped in four tosses from the
floor to total eight. Every play
er went places and their spark
ling play finally wore down the
State frosh.
Try as Meroney did, there
was no stopping of big "Connie
Mac" Berry, State center. From
all corners and peculiar posi
tions Berry threw - in accurate
two pointers and compiled a to
tal of 18 points before being
taken out of the game in the fi
nal moment for excessive per
sonal fouls. In the first half he
