1Ear BllB FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1940 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA Jimmy Howard Slated To Fill Stirny's Position At Second Third Baseman Wfll Try Out New Bag Today The answer to Coach Bunn Hearn's prayer for a second baseman to re place George Stirnweiss will probably turn out to be Jimmy Howard, third sacker for two years with Charlie Bich and boasting a bang-up game at second base in last year's Wake For est game." Howard has dominated second base in practice sessions so far this year. His fielding and ball-handling are much improved over last year's, and althougk his batting isn't up to Stirn weiss', he has a .280 average and can boast of being able to tease opposing pitchers to death. Experienced A test of whether Jimmy can handle the second base post will come this afternoon when the squad holds its first intra-squad game, postponed for several days until today because not enough men reported early enough to begin. No other candidate looms as a threat to Howard's staying at second, unless Coach Bunn Hearn should de cide to shift one of his other veterans to that position. Bobby Gersten, a second baseman on his freshman team two years ago, .is probably Hearn's next choice for second. Does Not Stain LINOIL For Athlete's Foot IM 0 ff NOT IMAGINARY GEN! I.

He takes the place of George Stirnweiss. Zetes, Steele, Old East Win In Openers The feature game in the intramural tag football program of the day saw the Zeta Psi outfit, runner up for the fraternity title last year, eke out a second half score on ATO to cap ture their first . contest of the year, 6-0. Other winners in yesterday's program were Old East, Steele, Kap pa Alpha, K, and Manly. With Tom Nash counting on a pass, the Zetes conquered a hard charging ATO team, sparked by Anthony and Ashby, who kept the losers in the fight all the way. Adams and Wals ton were outstanding for the win ners. In the only other fraternity contest of the afternoon, Kappa Al pha pushed over a touchdown and recorded a safety to down Pi Lambda Phi, 9-0, with Sebrell passing to Mas sey for a 35 yard gain and the only touchdown of the game. Old East recorded a one point vic tory over BVP m the best dorm game of. the afternoon. Sink Scored for the winners, as both teams bat tled in 'a scoreless second half, which saw Shuke, Savarese, and Smith shine for the victors, with Slavin, Howard, (Continued on page 4, column 1) Bucky Walters Wins For Reds CINCINNATI, Oct. 3 Bucky Walters did today what no other Na tional league pitcher has been able to do since 1937 defeat an American ! league club in a World Series game and he did it in a masterful style when he ninned Detroit back with three M. hits to give the Cincinnati Reds a 5-3 triumph in the second game of the series. Walters was shaky in the first in ning and issued passes to the first two men to face him. One of the Tigers' three hits scored a run and a double play sent in the second marker. Two Runs in Second Four hits(rattled off the bats of the Reds in the second inning and two runs was the result. Big Jim Ripple found a pitch to his liking in the third and drove it into the right field bleacn- ' (Continued on page 4, column S ) Today Is Last Day Students May Enroll In Physical Ed Class Since action of the University Board of Trustees requires that each undergraduate male student take a course in physical education, all men students who have cot yet been enrolled in a physical educa tion class, must sign up. Students are to be enrolled according to their class, in Physical Education 1, 21, 31 or 41, and all who haven't yet been assigned to an activity should see either Floyd Siewert or Marvin Allen in 308 Woollen gym this afternoon. Today is the last day on which students may enroll in physi- . cal ed without drawing penalty. Frosh Stage Practice Grid Match Today By dusk tonight any interested by stander will know what to expect of this year's frosh grid team, for the first practice game of the campaign will be run off this afternoon on Em erson field for the edification of Coach Jim Tatum and his staff and any stray individuals who may be at tracted by agonizing sounds of bodily contact and cries of "Keel hem, Tony." ' Just a week away from the first game with the State Wolf cubs in Raleigh, the squad should give an ex cellent indication of its progress thus far. Two picked teams will go at each other in dead earnest, for first team berths are far from settled and the scrimmage will probably deter mine a good number of starters for the game next Friday. Two weeks of organized practice will be finish ed today, and considering the large number of candidates from which to glean the most promising material, much has been accomplished.

FTTH J rw jLyavicison inreatens iar lieei JMeven With Aerial Work of Sharpe, Spencer Placekicking Is Newest Of Tar Heel Traditions Sigier and Snyder Now Show Promise One of the newest traditions to be added to Carolina's long line is that of fine placekicking. Although Car olina had such great toe artists in the old days as George Tandy, Ern est Graves, and George Sparrow, it was not until Babe Daniel appeared on the scene in 1934 that this place kicking tradition was initiated. Tom Burnette of Tarboro found himself in Daniel's shoes the ' next two years and no better fit could have been found. In 1936 and 1937 he kicked 29 extra points in 33 at tempts. It was during the Carolina NYU in 1936 that the full value of his precision toe was realized. His two extra points after touchdown were the required margin to win the game, 14-13. Next in line was Co-Captain Steve Maronic, All-American tackle of 13 consecutive conversions ranked him first in the nation and was instrumen tal in his being placed on several All- American selections. Last fall the burden' fell on the shoulders of a sophomore fullback, Harry .Dunkle, who proved himself a worthy successor by making good on 16 of his 18 attempts to tie Turner of Holy Cross for first honors in the nation in highest number of con versions. Dunkle, who led the nation with a punting average of 46.5 last year, was ably assited by Co-Captains Paul Severin and Gates Kimball. Severin placekicked four extra points and two field goals from difficult angles last season while Kimball also made several points by this method.

With the loss of but one man via graduation, 136-pounder, Walt Blaek mer, captain of the 1940 outfit, the Tar Heel grapplers display a wealth of material in every department.

Candidates may leave names at tennis courts or sign up with John Ord, 310 H. HARRY DUNKLE, the nation's leading punter with "an average of 46.6 last year, also deserves no toriety for tying Turner of Holy Cross with' the highest number of extra-points kicked from placement. 37 Swimmers Hear Speech By Jamerson Thirty-seven aspiring candidates greeted Coach Rictiard Jamerson Wednesday night at the first meeting of the varsity swimming team. Plans for fall conditioning were discussed and "get in shape" was adapted as the official war cry. Coach Jamerson,, in a short talk, stressed the fact that every position on the team is wide open and every man an unknown quality until he proves himself. He also was quite em phatic in pointing out that attend ance at practice is compulsory and ab sences will be treated the same as in any class. Of the 37 men registered, eight are lettermen and one a reserve from last year's conference champions. Of the others 12 are sophomores and 16 are upperclassmen. from last year's yearling squad which bowed only to the W&L frosh, the Carolina matmen look forward to one of their most successful campaigns in years.

Although Granville , Sharpe, the Wildcats' triple-threater was out c the State game last weekend, he is expected back in the line-up tomor- Students will be admitted to the Davidson game by exchanging Pass book slip No. 3 and $1.00 for a re served seat ticket at Bowman Gray stadium.

Even without Sharpe, Davidson has the passing. Davidson was the only eleven on the Tar Heel schedule last year, including such big-name teams as Penn, NYU, Tulane and Duke, that showed a bet ter passing record than the Tar Heels themselves, and Carolina can be sure to see more of that aerial game to morrow and also again next week when Texas Christian comes here. The Wildcats completed 13 of 26 attempted passes 'and the Tar Heels connected with only eight of 20 in last fall's en gagement at the Bowman Gray stad ium in Winston-Salem, where tomor row's game is to be played, beginning at 2:30.
