Oct. 5, 1939. tear Cuthbert: Tt is days like this that drive inno- jtct men to drink, suicide, crime and timilar fates worse tcan death. Frank jt is terrible; everything happens at rce and everything that happens is terrible. It is getting so that I cannot get my daily gold and instructions from Berlin and Moscow without hav jrcr someone stick his nose into my business and want a rake-in. Perhaps I should retire to the hills. It would sot surprise me in the least to discover t! country was going to -the puppies. I knew Cincinnati is, either that or the hock shops. ' '' ' " The day starts terribly when some stray female I have never seen before stands around Graham Memorial and Eakes a side remark about a certain dissipated look stretching across a certain pan. It is a cutting remark and teaches me to the quick. I have never seen the girl before in my life, and in ease you should ask, I hope I will have the same luck in the future. Well, the Reds dropped the first game of the world series. That is disgusting. Don't they know what they are doing to the good natives of Cincinnati? Why, the town will soon be in hock. If the Reds do not win the championship of the world, a number of good Cincinnatians will make a concerted rush to see Uncle Jake under the sign of the three balls. That is, if the Reds do not first clean out Uncle Jake. Children will stand around crying for food, and their parents. will have, to take 'em aside and break the sad news to them that the family has been cleaned by the Reefs and there will be no more food until Taft is elected President or until some relief can be rolled down along . the American Rhine. If the Reds do not win tomorrow, there will be no need of continuing the series. Derringer failed today. If Walters cannot beat the Yanks, no-; body on the Redleg staff can without a federal injunction. It does not look bright for the pride and joys of Ohio. In fact it did not look good from the start Now it is official. But at that I should not feel so terrific. Earlier in the summer I made, a small' wager with a rabid JJiMaggio fan in order to get him to shut his mouth, that Babe Dahlgren would outhit Joe in the se ries. Well, they're even after the first fame and if Babe does not outhit the "Great" DiJIag I will be ready to join Cincinnati in official mourning and bankruptcy. Of course, there is a bright side (Continued on page 4, column 2) . 29 -ous 9 t t i t It it i i MADE MOST Of UiS SO?id RECORDS WITH HZVyoR.

STATISTICS For no reason at all and much to the surprise of all concerned, I have been invited in from my office as head of the Department of Unvital Statistics this week to again "pick the football winners. Yes, wise guy, winners. Last week we .did not have what might be termed a howling success. A number of teams did not do as expected, and in fact, did everything in reverse. But enough of the past, the future, ahem gentlemen: ' THE SOUTHERN CONFERENCE CAROLINA-VIRGINIA TECH The Tar Heels are on their way some where and it is not likely that the Gobblers will delay Ray Wolf's chillun any. Carolina by about four touch downs with or without Stirnweiss. DUKE-COLGATE Agents who have seen Colgate play say Duke should win by 12 points. So it is Duke by 12. After all, why argue with agents. . STATE-CLEMSON Clemson may be too tired to beat State after that heroic stand against Tulane. But then again, State has no attack to speak of. So Clemson by a touchdown or a field-goal, or a point or so. KEYDETS FAVORED DAVIDSON-VMlDavidson has a valiant ball club, but if Paul Shu;gets back into action it looks like the Key- dets will win. t WAKE FOREST-MIAMI Wake Forest had a harrowing experience last week-end. The Deacons will prob ably bounce back and, tear up Miami by two or three touchdowns we hope. SOUTH CAROLINA VILLA NOVA The Wildcats by 14 points. South Carolina hasn't won a game this fall, and Villanova. isn't the kind of team to let 'em have a win. Briefly . . - GEORGIA over FUR MAN, CITADEL over PRESBYTER IAN, W & L over RICHMOND and W &M over APPRENTICE.

Come in arid Browse Around ANDREWS-HENNINGER - : HARRIERSSEEK BRIGHT FUTURE By HARRY HOLLINGSWORTH Present indications seem to point to North Carolina having another one of its "well balanced" cross country teams, said Coach Dale Ranson of the harrier squad after Viewing a rather stiff work-out yesterday after noon. , ' Conference champions since way back, the squad is again looking for ward to another successful year. Missed greatly from this year's team will be Bill Hendrix, holder of the Southern conference cross country run at 25:25.7. Several other letter- men from last year will be missed also, but a couple of sophomores," Jim Vawter and Mike Wise, can replace any man lost by graduation. Frank Wakeley, Jim Hall, Drewry Trout man Mickey Wagner, Clifton James, and Johnnie Glover are the other mis sing monogram men. THE LINE-UP Heading this year's team at- the present stage are Captain Tom Crockett, Fred Hardy, co-captain k of this season's track team, Dave Mor rison, Clarence Fink, Wimpy Lewis, and the aforementioned sophomores, Jim Vawter and Mike Wise. These seven men will, without a doubt, be in the lineup at any one of the three dual meets and the Southern Confer ence meet unless some dark horse comes Tip at the last minute. Tex Diamond, at present, seems to have the inside track on the eighth posi tion. As a freshman Diamond ran eighth on the frosh harrier team. In the practice thus far he has shown much improvement over his last year's performance. Running -b e hi n d Diamond are Bill Gordon, Henry Branch, Dave Ricks, Jim Earle, Jim Toy and Holt Allen. Tom Crockett, eaptain and holder of the Southern Conference two-mile record at 9:40, as a sophomore ran sixth in the Conference, but bettered his position to third last year behind Hendrix and Kehoe, of Maryland. He has looked impressive in work-outs so far and seems headed for' a good season. . SECOND MAN Fred Hardy, as a sophomore, ran the five mile course in 25:47, the second fastest time ever turned m over the conference course. He ran second to Crockett in the Conference (Continued on page U, column S) INITIAL EXTRA PERIOD ENABLES DOCTORS TO WIN YESTERDAY'S RESULTS Med School won over Lewis in extra period.

Both teams tallied an even number of points, 6, but in the extra period con sisting of eight plays the Doctors had the advantage. in ground gained. Both teams scored in the first half of the game and then settled down to play fine defensive ball for the re maining half and extra period, but Med. School's offense clicked in the extra time and thus accounted for the Lewis downfall. Holt tallied the win ners' touchdown, while Bowman count ed for the losers. PHI DELTS STAR Phi Delta Theta moved into a tie for the fraternity first-place yester day asit captured its second contest by handing Chi Phi a 13-6 trimming. Paced by Williford, Sapp and Rice the winners ran up a 13-0 lead and then fought off a Chi Phi offensive attack for the remaining portion of the game. Chi Phi's winning touch down was tallied by Cooper in the closing minutes of the game. Har- groves was outstanding both off en sively and defensively for the losers INITIAL GAME SAE opened its playing season yes terday afternoon with a 35-0 triumph over Phi Alpha.

SlGMANUWINS Sigma Nu climaxed the day's ac tivities by gaining a 6-0 victory over ZBT. The ZBT team fought the Snakes on an even basis during the majority of the game, but wilted before i Sigma Nu offensive attack in the fina half and lost the game.

So much, has competition for first string berths increased since the in trasquad scrimmage a week ago that the first and second teams then are hardly recognizable as such now. Slight injuries to several top-flight men have added to the confusion. MEET GOBBLERS The Tar Babies go to Blacksburg October 13 to play the Little Gobblers of Virginia Tech, and all of the in jured are expected to be in shape for that tilt. Meanwhile the men play ing the first string positions are try ing to get a firm hold on them. . Practice continues to be routine dum my scrimmage in which the frosh learn their assignments and run through the plays they will use this fall. Much of the work is slow, mainly because all of the men aren't out resrularlv and as a result haven't learned their jobs well.

With three years ahead of .him he should, before he is through at Chapel Hill, rank among the greatest tackles ever produced at Carolina. YANKEES DEFEAT REDS IN OPENER NEW YORK, Oct. 4. Striking the first blow in their campaign for a fourth straight world's series cham pionship, the Yankees defeated the Reds, 2-1, today before 58,000 Yankee stadium customers in the first game of the 1939 world series. A rousing triple by the youngest and lustiest Yankee of them all, Charlie" Keller, in the ninth inning turned , the tide of battle and set the stage for a McCarthy victory, break ing up a brilliant pitcher's duel be tween Rufus the Red, and Oom Paul Derringer. With one down in the last half of the ninth, the score deadlocked 1-1, Keller hit a tremendous . triple into right field. Ival the Terrible Good man got his hands on the ball but could hot help it. -Joe DiMaggio was purposely passed, but Bill Dickey broke the game up with a lashing single to center, scoring x Keller and sending the Yankees one up on the (Continued on page 4, column 3) Two years a Carolina letterm&n but never a regular. Chuck Slagle toSay again found himself on the outside looking in. Shifted from guard to tackle at the beginning of the season and installed as a starter, Chuck instead of making plans at Fetzer field yesterday for heroics in Saturday's game at Norfolk against Virginia Tech was prepared for an afternoon of bench warming watch ing sophomore Dick White perform. The story briefly is this: A re serve guard his first two years, Slagle, a chunky citizen from Spring field Ohio, was shifted to tackle when, Coach Raymond B. Wolf of the Tar Heels discovered Jim .Learning had not known enough answers to be scholasticaly eligible, thereby leaving a gaping hole at tackle that had been occupied by erstwhile co-captain and All-American Steve Maronic. Slagle began the Citadel game and was play ing a steady, dependable game while Carolina wa running up a near rec ord score. SUBSTITUTION Mid-way in the first quarter, with Carolina going further ahead almost everytime it held the ball, Wolf sent in White in place of Chuck. That was the last time Slagle was a regu lar. Playing a slashing, brilliant game, glamor boy White became the talk of the sports ; writers. Slagle was forgotten in the rush to the White band-wagon. The loss of lumbering, ample-sized Maronic was passed up as White time and time again camped himself in the Li?ht Brigade backfield and kept the men about the Citadel backfield from doing anything but punting and hop ing the Tar Heels would not run up too big a score. 4 Against Wake Forest it was White again. Slagle played but briefly, and then Only as a third stringer. It was White camping himself in the Deacon backfield; it was White making life miserable for Johnny Pqlanski and Red Mayberry, two grand ball players bewildered by the collapse of their teammates; it was White blocking with all the force and finesse of the coolest, most experienced veteran. IT WAS WHITE It was White who was writing his name on the North Carolina football scene in large, indelible letters, and it was Slagle who slumped on the bench waiting for the call that would send (Continued on page 4, column 1) Come to the isle of Bali. tee these glamorous Balinese beau ties .fake a peek at romance, Balinese style.. .fake a vacation with the year's grandest picture!" l u jjj S I 2 I i Aflfi www Entries for. the fall tennis tourna ment must be handed in by 10:30 to day to Lynch Murphy at the Sigma Nu house. .
