Each man scores the numb er of "points as the place he finishes, low score winning. By LEONARD LOBRED Turning in outstanding team and individual performances, Carolina's cross country team finished one of its most successful seasons this fall. Be sides ending the season with another Southern conference championhip, Carolina's ninth since 1926 and its third in a row, Coach Ranson's har-' riers beat Davidson, Duke and Mary land in, dual meets, and bowed only to Navy, for their first setback in two years. The greatest single showing was Captain Bill Hendrix's record- We Take This Opportunity to Wish the Faculty and Students of the UNIVERSITY of NORTH CAROLINA "A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" THE UNIVERSITY RESTAURANT i 9 !

BANK OF CHAPEL HILL breaking race in the conference meet, when he outran ""a pouring rain, a course soaked by 20 hours of rain, the mental effect caused by the rain, and a field of 40 of the best distance run ners in the conference. Throughout the season the Tar Heels were paced by Hendrix, who in his last two years did not lose a cross country race. Because the present course is to be replaced by a new one next year, and because the confer ence and course record of 25:34 was held by Bill Morse of Duke, Hendrix had plenty of incentive to gq after a new record. For a week before the conference meet the Tar Heel har riers discussed his chances" for a new record, and even when rain started falling on the afternoon before the meet, they still knew Hendrix would do what he planned run the first four miles with all he had, and coast and pray on the last mile. THE RECORD Hendrix led Jim Kehoe of Mary land, one of the better distance run ners in the east, by half a lap at the finish at Fetzer field. Tom Crockett, after dogging Kehoe with a determina tion to beat him, fell back into third when Kehoe's reserve enabled him to quicken his pace. Sophomore Dave Morrison in sixth, Jim Hall in eighth and Frank Wakeley in tenth were the other Tar Heel scorers. Two days before the meet Coach Ranson told his men he expected eight starters to finish fifteenth or better in the championship run. Eight Caro lina men did finish among the first 15, five men finished among the first ten, and three men finished among the first six. Clifton James and Wimpy Lewis, sophomores, finished eleventh and twelfth respectively, and Clar ence Fink was fifteenth. Carolina scored 28 points, Maryland 58, Davidson 83 and Duke 102 points. Washington and Lee, with only six finishers, did not have ateam score. WILDCATS WITCHED Carolina traveled to Davidson with the football team and won, 15-52; for their most decisive victory of the year. Hendrix, Crockett, Wakeley, Hall and Morrison deadlocked for first, Wildcat Captain Dave Wood ward was sixth, Drewry Troutman and James tied for seventh and Joe Russell took ninth. On their annuar northern week-end trip the Tar Heels lost to Navy, 25-33, and on the next day topped Maryland, 24-37. Beset by injuries at that time of the year, Coach Ranson split up his squad into equally strong teams. At Annapolis Hendrix, Crockett, Wake ley and Hall, the veterans, ran well, but the Middies placed more men in the lower finish positions. At College Park Hendrix ran his second first place in two days. He beat the great miler, Barney Oldfield, at Navy and Kehoe was the second man in the Terrapin meet. Morrison, Crockett and Wakeley in fourth place pushed Bobby Condon and Joe Peas lee, two of the Terps' best, far down FROSH GRID YEAR PFiniTW TAlVITTMTTUn ens' "Christmas Carol," is a facsimile lULiYlUVT lAllimUJLil r - - Barton Presto - BICKTORD MaclAHE FOSTER Tom EROWM Km GREY S SamuelS.

Peaslee won the conference two-mile title last spring. THEY BEAT DUKE The Tar Heels saved their second best licking for Duke, winning 15-43. Hendrix, Crockett, Wakeley, Morrison and James tied for first. Lawrence Brett and Captain Ed Hauser placed sixth and seventh for the Devils. The freshmen finished their four meet schedule undefeated. They open ed against Jefferson high of Roanoke, Va., and won easily. Paced by Jim Vawter, Henry Branch, Jim Eddy and John Earle, the freshmen missed a perfect score against Davidson by half a point. Vawter, who took first place in all the freshman meets, and Branch, Wise, Eddy and Earle led the Tar Babies to two victories over the Duke frosh. Dave Ricks, Pete Carraway, Tex Diamond- and Jack Armstrong, the other Tar Baby runners, also figured in the Carolina wins. The Carolina reserve squad, com posed of the second eight ranking var sity men, split two meets with the Guilford college varsity. Mickey Wag ner, who rated in the top eight at the beginning of the year, was forced to stay idle for a while because of a stitch, but in the Quaker meets the sophomore star led the Carolina fin ishers. John French, Holt Allen, Clar ence Fink and John Glover were the other outstanding reserve men. At the beginning of the year Coach Ranson awaited, the return to action of Fred Hardy, second-placer in the conference run last year, who worked all fall to smooth out his ankle after a chipped bone was removed. But neither he nor Bill Gordon, who was out all fall with a bad knee, were able to run for the Tar Heels. Joe Rus sell was made idle after running in the Davidson meet, when an already weak calf became weaker. Drewry Troutman fractured his right foot running against Duke. Minor ailments also put Hall and Wagner out of ac tion for weeks at a time.
