Cavalier Mtomem OmtffkM Carolina Boxer ul. zy far Frosh Gain Crushing 33-5 Triumph By Stud Gleicher Spotting a fighting Wolf pack wrest ling team five points, Carolina's grap plers came from behind to hang up their second conference win of the sea son, 17-11. The varsity, seriously hin dered by the loss of mainstay Hobart McKeever who fell victim to the flu, chalked up wins in all but three weights to prove conclusively that they are one of the top teams to beat in conference circles this year. George Zink's freshmen tagged a top heavy 33-5 score on the Wolflets and showed the same fight and aggressive ness that caused observers to dub them them the "wonder team," after last week's victory over Duke. The frosh bid fair to become regular trodders of the victory trail in their remaining meets. Sam Mordecai Paces Team Sam Mordecai paced the varsity with a pin over A. M. Sloop in 56:05 of the second period. The Tar Heel grappler wrestled with a sprained ankle, but des pite this serious handicap soon had his opponent on the mat. Mordecai thus chalked up his third straight win of the current campaign, in the 155 pound class, traditionally one of the toughest to wrestle in. Bill Redfern, displaying his early season form, got the Tar Heels off to a flying start when he won a 3-0 de cision over T. C. Changaris, in the 121- pound division. Redfern rode his man throughout the match, and never was CAROLINA THEATRE DURHAM, N. C. TUE.

Hohart McKee ver, stricken last night with the flu, was unable to go on and Bob Leak ap peared to claim State's points. John Robinson, team handyman, made sure of a decision over R. T. Trox ler in the early part of the match and breezed in by virtue of fine mat work. Troxler, State's widely heralded 135- pounder was decisively beaten by the Tar Heel. In the 145-pound class, Gene DaVant turned in another sterling performance and won the nod over John Stallings. DaVant, making use of his famous leg holds, rode his man throughout the match and clearly demonstrated his superiority over his opponent. Frank Mordecai added another three points to Carolina's victory march when he won the decision over Max Warren in the 165-pound division. Warren, former high school champion, was out classed in every department by Morde cai. Lem Gibbons, Carolina's hard-luck man, met Morehead Jones in the 175 pound class and dropped a close decision to the State man. Gibbons, game to the last, was on the short end of a 5-2 count. Woodrow Jones, State's unlimited entry,. won a 5-2 decision over John Sasser in the final match of the even ing.

Most of the cage squads have played one or more matches to date and fol lowers of the mural program can get a "definite line on how the different quints stack up. , The cream of the fraternity league seems to be the crack Zeta Psi No. 2 team and the No. three squad of Kappa Sigs. Each team took one-sided vic tories last week and seem in line for the crown held by Chi Psi last season. Ike Wright of the Zetes and Doug Batchelor, Kappa Sig, were the lead ers of the two quints in first-round competition. The contest that gave Everett No. 3 its 77-18 win over Mangum No. 2 furnished two stars of the week. Don Willard, Everett forward, tied the in dividual scoring record of the season with 28 markers and Mac Geddis ac counted for 21 tallies in the game. Each man is tall and dangerous under the basket. Dave Rumph, SAE, deserves a place in the list of leading performers of the week by virtue of his 19 points scored against the hapless Sigma Nu No. 2 five of the two-point fame. Scanning the schedule for this week we find one. top-notch battle slated that between ZBT and Kappa Sig No. 3 on Thursday afternoon. The Phi Kappa Sig teams see action this week, one for the first time and should turn in interesting games? Stacy's defen sive outfit goes against Lewis in what should be one of the leading dorm tilts.

Blue Baby Dolphins Dolphins Jack Eshelman Is High Scorer Of Varsity Meet By Harry Hollingsworth RALEIGH, Jan. 24 The University of North Carolina's greatest swimming team since the sport was introduced at the state institution demonstrated this afternoon that it deserved its title by splashing State college, one of the better teams in the conference, with a humiliating 59-16 defeat. The victory, the third consecutive for the Blue Dolphins . this season, and the 13th straight conference dual meet vic tory and the 10th in a row since they were defeated by Navy last year, was gained by taking nine first places, three seconds and two thirds. Hitting their stride in the first con f erence meet of the season, the Dolphins dominated the meet from the time the team of Denny Hammond, Bob Ousley and George Coxhead, set a new confer ence record in the 300-yard medley re lay until an all-senior team of Coxhead, Truman Hobbs, Whit Lees and Jim Barclay established a new conference mark in the 400-yard freestyle relay. In between those two conference rec ords, Denny Hammond, who continues to pace backstrokers in the Southern conference, raced through the event to a new loop recprd. Other top-notch performances were turned in by Andy Weiss, Jack Eshel man, Bob Ousley, Jim Barclay and the remainder of the team in getting its first hold on the conference dual meet trophy, which.is awarded on a percent age basis. The best race of the meet was the final event in which Carolina's all- senior relay team went out alter a new conference record and the quartet got it I But by the close shave of one tenth of a second. The race started fast and Coxhead and State's Co-Captain Kattermann ended in an almost dead heat. Truman Hobbs, swimming the second leg of the event, lost about two feet, but Whit Jes picked it up on his third leg and added some more to boot to give Jim Barclay a good four- Smith Scores Win in Coed Tournament In an individual scoring contest be tween Betsy Ross Howe and Edith Bass the Smith basketeers downed Alderman 38-28 Friday in the coed intramural tournament. The speediest game of the tourna ment so far saw the lead change several times. Coming from behind a 9-7 de ficit at the end of the first quarter, Smith gained a close 17-15 lead on their opponents at the half through Betsy's floor shots. In the third quarter the Smith guards bottled up the forwards to assure their dornuthe victory. Betsy lead the scor ing with 25 points for the winners fol lowed closely by Alderman's Edith with 20. Edith plays a nice floor game and promises to be one of the best tourney players.

He came home in 3 : 50.3 with a new conference record. Denny Hammond's backstroke time was amazing to the State supporters who thought when Sid Ingram ended his collegiate competition at the Raleigh school that no other backstroker would ever approach his mark.. But Denny did, and even better than State ever expected. He busted Ingram's confer ence record of 1:41.8 with a sparkling 1:39.5 performance. Andy Weiss, hitting a new high in his event, followed Billy Stone's blister ing early pace and overcame his team mates half-way through the 440-yard event to finish first a lap ahead of the nearest State man and almost a half lap in front of Stone. His pace was so terrific in the early laps that Coach Dick Jamerson expect ed to see him hit a conference mark, but j he weakened slightly and finished in 5:26.3, for a new University record, breaking his former record by one-tenth of a second.

The University of Virginia Baby Cavaliers punched a close 4H-3H de cision over the game but outclassed Tar Babies in the prelims held in the forenoon. The fastest match and by far the best was the match which pit ted Bob Bott of Virginia against Ed Gregory, Carolina's, knockout artist. Bott came rushing in for the kill and hit Gregory with rights and lefts and pushed Gregory in the ropes. Gregory immediately went into action and ex ploded all over Bott. Gregory tore in, got Bott on the ropes and powdered him with all he had. Bott sank to his knees, got up once and went back down for the last time when Gregory threw a tremendous right, flush to the jaw. The fight ended in .26 of the first round. John Davis of Carolina was held to a v draw by Bryan Donaldson, when Donaldson hung on every time Davis threw a punch. Davis was aggressive all the way but was tied up at every turn. In the last round Donaldson came back strong and piled up enough points to gain a draw. Davis appeared to have an advantage but the referee decided that Donaldson had enough points for a draw. ' Membrino Wins Another thriller was the Littleton Membrino go. Membrino countered very effectively and pushed across several nice right crosses. Membrino carried the fight to Littleton, hitting him at every turn and covering up very good when in close quarters.

He covered his 50-yard leg in 23.7 to lead the frosh team of Monta gue Erie, and Herr to a new record of 1:43. The old mark was 1:47.6.
