UNIVERSITY CLUB (Continued from first page) year that saw student spirit reach an all-time high on a certain afternoon last November (Carolina, 6; Duke, 3). The club's program for the year got under way during orientation week with a freshman smoker, attend ed by 900 members of the class of 44. Planned during the summer by President Taylor, the get-together was designed to introduce the incom ing freshmen toone phase of Caro lina's way of living through meeting members of the athletic, department, administrative officers, student-body officers, and cheerleaders. ' On High School Day the members of the club served as hosts and guides to the more than 2000 high school stu dents from all over the state who at tended the football game with Appa lachian State teachers college. Pep Rally Pep rallies were sponsored by the club before the Wake Forest, TCU, Tulane, and Duke games, and send offs were staged before the Davidson, State, and Virginia encounters. In addition, the club met all .visiting football teams and acted as hosts to them. . For the homecoming game with Tu lane, the club sponsored a torchlight parade and handled the annual display contest. Efforts by Taylor, assisted by Comptroller W. D. Carmichael, re sulted in the northward trek of near- 1 ly 1,000 Carolina students to New York to see the Fordham game and to participate in a parade down Park Avenue and a 15-minute NBC broad cast featuring Kay Kyser. Defense Rush Order As the spark that set student spirit off, the club staged a surprise rally at the regular Thursday night football clinic preceding the Duke game, pre senting a portable radio to Coach Ray Wolf as a gift from the student body and a letter of confidence to the team. The pep rally on the eve of the game, following a torchlight parade, packed Memorial hall witn one of the largest crowd in its history. Following the rally the crowd moved to the intra mural field for a bonfire. "Carolina spirit" and the game was described by a Duke drum major as sounding UEYS BRIEFS like a "defense rush order in a boiler factory." At a special ceremony the follow ing week, the club presented minia ture gold footballs, bought with' stu dent contributions, to all" lettermen and coaches. During the fall quarter the club also cooperated with Graham Memor ial Director Worley in sponsoring Sadie Hawkins Day. The club's activities during the winter quarter included meeting al athletic teams that came to Chapel Hill; serving as hosts, assistants, and ushers at the Southern conference in door games; placing 400 faculty mem bers for luncheon and tea on Student- Faculty Day; and the detailed process of selecting the new members of the club. During the spring quarter the club will cooperate with the .University during High School Week and act as host to all visiting athletic teams. FROSH BOX SCORE (Continued from page three). (Continued from first page) Larisa. Thl3 sensational report was not con firmed from any other source. It would mean that the Nazis not only had broken the first line of defenses but abo had grabbed the eastern an chor of the second line, which is thought to run from Larisa to Yanina. What was known definitely was that the air force on each side was in con stant action, pounding the rear lines of each opponent. British attacks were centered on the passes and roads leading southward into Greece, from Yugoslavia. The Luftwaffe concen trated on the port of Pireras and the Salamis Roads where, according to the. Germans, the British have trans ports standing by in the event they mm A m a m m a are driven irom tne iootnoia on tne M continent. In Yugoslavia there was still severe fighting going on, and various reports claimed that the Serbs in the vicinity of Skoplje were still attempting coun ter-action against the Germans. The Germans tacitly admitted that Serb resistance was far from broken, de spite the crushing blows inflicted in the six days of blitzkreig warfare. German reports had little to say about fighting in the south, dealing mostly with efforts to crush the Yugo slav army still holding out in the northern part of the country In Ber- in it was confidently expected that he occupation of Belgrade would be announced at any' moment, and many in Berlin thought German troops al ready had entered the Yugoslav capital. Russia's criticism of Hungary was uttered by the vice-commisar for for-j eign affairs in reply to the Hungarian! minister, who called to tell him of the Hungarian march in. The Russian minister, with possible significance, pointed out that Hungary ! had minorities of her own and specu- ated on Hungary's plight if some day 'Hungary should get herself into rouble and be torn to. bits." One of Hungary's minorities is Russian, another is German. Turkey stood aloof from the strug lebut had little doubt that her day was approaching. Diplomatic quarters in Istanbul heard reports that Ger many might move against the Ukraine wheat fields and the Mosul if she cleans up the Yugoslav campaign as rapidly as was hoped by the Nazi high command. " The first signs of a German pres sure and diplomatic offensive to wean , Turkev away from her British alli ance and allow passage of German troops across Asia Minor were re ported. In Africa there were indications that a major test of strength between the Germans and the British may de velop speedily in the Tobruk region. German forces were not more than 15 miles from Tobruk, and possibly much closer. The Royal Air Force launched a pre-battle offensive against enemy planes and bagged 33 of them in a widespread series of actions.

(Continued from page three) a promising start. , Virginia's Tom Todd, who tied with Teammate Ken Rathbun for the meet's individual high scoring honors, took both hurdle events from War- was pushed in both divisions. In the PRO SH BASEBALL high hurdles Todd clipped off a sparkling :14.9 to shade Mangum in the last 20 yards. In the longer event Mengel seemed well on his way to breaking the Cavalier's streak when he lost his stride and fell into the last barrier. Feature Event For sheer competitive thrill, the two-mile race featuring Wimpy Lewis of Carolina and "Biv" Tucker of the home club, was tops in every sense of he word. From the outset it was ap parent that this was to be a two-man affair when the pair moved out in ront on the second lap. It was Tucker bv ten yards right ud to the beginning of the last lap when Lewis made his $ABALL bid. - was his second impressive perform-' ance of the year and will probably earn him a starting berth. Against Raleigh high Friday afternoon he hurled the last two innings and set the high school lads down hitless while fanning four of the seven men who faced him. Leaders in Wake . Forest's 12-hit, seven-run attack were Joe Scheldt andi .j victory Bob Jordan. Each had three for five Scheldt had a double and a triple in his five hits.

H used home runs by Footsie Mc Combs and Larry Holzman in providing the margin of victory. Town No. 1 came back the next day to take a 5-4 triumph over Graham in a close game. Don Wilson, the frosh basketball luminary, was the star of the Town win. He collected four singles in as many trips to the plate. Scoring Spree Pharmacy School in its debut into intramurals went on a scoring ram page to submerge Law School No. 2, 18-6.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (Via Berlin) April 12 The Danish For eign Office tonight declared void the agreement between the United States and the Danish minister at Washing ton placing Greenland under American protection. . At the same time the Foreign Of fice announced they would recall Hein rich de Kauffman, Danish minister to Washington. The agreement, which gave the United States permission to establish air 'and naval bases and other mili tary facilities at Greenland, was said by the Foreign Office to be void under international law. (Announcement of the agreement in Washington said it had been signed by Kauffman "on behalf of the king of Denmark." Denmark is German-occupied territory.) WASHINGTON, April 12 America is considering persuading Eire to give Britain naval and air bases in return for U. S. lend-lease aid, it was report ed in official quarters tonight in one of a series of actions to insure delivery of full aid to the British Empire. The United States moves under the British-aid program, picking up mo mentum under the leash of President Roosevelt's call for action and more action, are developing along the lines of forming two great sea bridges for supplies. One is over the north At lantic and the other is the path to the Near East and Egypt, either through the Pacific ocean or around the Cape of Good Hope. - Left on bases: Wake Forest 8, Caro lina 9. Double plays: Morris to Smidt to Scheldt, Wray to Waters, to Morris. Base on balls: off Van Kirk 2, Pearce 4. Hits: off Cantrell, 4 in 3; White heart, 5 in 3; Van Kirk, 3 in 4. Hit by pitcher: by Pearce (Croom). Strike outs: by Cantrell 1, Whiteheart 2, Van Kirk 3, Pearce 7. Passed balls: Murray, Croom. Losing pitcher: Cantrell. Um pire: Yow. Time of game: 1:50. And a courageous bid it was, as the little Tar Heel moved to the fore with a terrific sprint that put him out in front of the Cavalier on the turn lead ing into the backstretch. . But Tucker had too much left and reallv put on the pressure in that backstretch to win in 9:56.4. The time was the only dual meet record established and supplanted the mark of 10:48 set by Lauck of Virginia in 1932. ' - Middle Distance Men In the final analysis, it was the middle distance men who preserved Carolina's clean slate of three vic tories asrainst no defeats, and Tar Heels' showing in the 880 was parti cularly encouraging. Henry Branch, Rich Van Wagoner and Johnny French were all well bunched in better than 1:58 and their showing gave promis ing indications for a crack two-mile relay team if and when the .Tar Heels compete in the Penn relays April 24. Rnv Cflthev. in running aeainst a j ' stiff westerly wind, looked impressive in taking the 220 while Phil Haigh sustained a tough break in the same event when he fell in the last stretch drive after keeping right on Cathey's heels throughout. Newcomers Teeny Hall m the hurdles, Don Baker in the quarter and Jim Lloyd in the pole vault all gave indications of real promise, while a group of the "old reliables" including Jim Toy, Holt Allen, Lamar Wood, ninlr White and Bob Olive came through with valuable points. A Blessing , The Virginia meet, seemingly indi cative of Carolina track weakness, was a blessing in disguise for a num ber of Tar Heels who will be urgently needed against Duke next Saturday, were able to take a much-needed rest. For example, there was very little doubling up in events by such men as Dave Morrison, who was able to idle along in the mile without extending himself, and Rich Van Wagoner, who may be called upon to take the post a J A i Al T1. - 1 .in a pair oi events against me diub Devils. The final verdict, apparently so close on paper, was even safe enough for the coaching staff to keep the ailing Mike Wise out of competi tion, and the versatile Warren Men- gel out of the discus throw. However, j this week it'll be all out for Duke and the entire club is expected to be in top shape for Saturday's : meet at the Hill.
