Records Smashed as Blue Dolphins
Swamp VMI Swimmers by 46-29 Score
Barclay, Hammond
Set New Marks
To Lead Mermen
By Harry Hollingsworth
Highlighted by the conference record-breaking
performances of Qo-cap-tain
Jim Barclay and Sophomore Den
ny Hammond, Carolina's swimming
team notched its 14th consecutive con
ference victory yesterday afternoon in
Bowman Gray Memorial pool by turn
ing back the Virginia Military Insti
tute team, 46-29, in a comparatively
easy fashion.
The team, spotted with many changes
in the regular lineup, didn't function
as it did against ; Navy, Virginia or
State, but there was still plenty of pow
er left i7 the reserves to take care of
the VMI threat.
Hammond Breaks Record .
Hammond's backstroke race was the
best of his career and definitely estab
lished him as one of the leading, back
stroke artists this side of the Mississip
pi. He was clocked in 1:54.6 over the
150-meter route to set up new confer
ence, University, pool and dual meet
records. The old Southern conference
and pool records were held by Sid In
gram at 2 : 01.8. The former University
record was 2:04.5 and former dual
meet time had been 2:11.5. So Ham
mond's new time appears to be fast
enough to stay on the books for quite
a while.
He was never pressed in the event and
was forced to establish his own pace.
And it was a well-paced race. At the
150-yard mark he was clocked unof
ficially in three-tenths of a second un
der the National intercollegiate long
course record.
Barclay Sets New Mark
Co-captain Barclay's new conference
mark was secured under a little differ
ent circumstances. Coach Dick Jamer
son shifted Whit Lees, a regular first
line sprinter, to the 200-meter, event to
get Barclay "off 'to "a little faster start
for the first 100-meters. And the stra
tegy must have worked wonders for the
slim co-captain. He covered the first
50 meters in 31.4, was even with Lees
at the close of the 100, picked up sev
eral feet on his teammate in the next
50 and splashed home a good five yards
in front with a new record of 2:27.8.
The old Southern conference mark,
which he held, was 2:31.7 and the form
er University and dual meet mark
2:28.4.

Carolina Wrestlers Bow to Cadet
Matmen in Thrilling Match, 16-14
Frosh Grapplers
Keep Slate Clean
With 17-11 Win
By Stud Gleicher v
Courageously battling a superior
team, Carolina's grapplers dropped a
close 16-14 match to VMI yesterday,
after they had wrestled the Keydets to
an 11-11 tie. Paced by Gene Davant
and Sam Mordecai the varsity almost
turned in a major upset against the
Virginia team. ,
The freshmen continuing their un
defeated record came out on the long
end of a 17-11 count against the Baby
Keydets. The frosh seem well nigh un
beatable and fully justified Coach
George Zink's confidence in them by
turning in a win over the ever-dangerous
VMI team.
In one of the hardest fought match
es of the season, Tar Heel Sam Morde
cai pinned VMI's star Leroy Roper in
2:53 of the second period. The 155
pound tussle was nip and tuck all the
way with Mordecai finally downing
his opponent with a crotch hold and
far nelson. Yesterday's victory defi
nitely stamps Mordecai as one of the
leading 155-pounders in the Southern
conference.
Redfern Bows in Close Match
Jack Dillard got VMI off to a three
point lead when he won the nod over
Bill Redfern of Carolina. The little
Carolina 121-pounder put up one of the
gamest fights of varsity annals, but
dropped a 9-8 decision after riding his
man for most of the match.
Mac McLendon, replacing Hobart
McKeever in the varsity lineup, tried
hard in his first varsity match but was
overcome by Jack McGrath's superior
experience. McGrath pinned McLendon
in 44 seconds of the second period
with a cradle hold.
Robinson Scores Win
John Robinson put Carolina in the
scoring column when he gained a 6-4

As Interclass Meet Continues
Cathey, Lewis,
Wise and Mengel
Are Victorious
By Bill Woestendiek
The fullest single-day program of
events in the interclass track meet was
run off in the Tin Can yesterday after
noon and when the smoke of battle
cleared away, the seniors were found
to have a commanding lead over the
other classes with just six events left
on the schedule.
The fourth-year men have piled up
46 points and the second place jun
lors have 31 points, while a compar
atively strong freshman squad is third
with 19 points to the sophomore dis
mal eight.
Roy Cathey, Mike Wise, Warren
Mengle, Frank Capel, Jim Lloyd and
Wimpy Lewis took first in their re
spective events, showing the power
of the favored senior team. All of
these men are seniors with the ex
ception of Capel and Lloyd.
660 is Top Race
The top race of the afternoon was
the 660-yard dash which found sen
iors Cathey and ' Wise fighting for
first place honors along with Rich Van
Wagoner, the juniors' No. 1 man. Wise
set a blazing pace most of the way
after passing Van in the first lap and
was caught by Co-captain Cathey in
the home stretch, Roy winning in 1:
23.7. Wise was second and Van Wag
oner third. Dick Hollander got fourth

Victories in Epee
Bouts Give Win
To Carolina Team
LEXINGTON, Va., January 31.
The Carolina fencing team nosed out
the Virginia Military Institute swords
men here this afternoon in a close,
drawn out meet by a 9-7 score.
It was the first meet of the season for
the victorious Tar Heel fencers, who
meet Washington and Lee here Mon
day. The Cadets picked up an early lead
in the foil bouts, but the Carolina squad
made this up in the epee bouts which
put the visiting team two matches in
front. It was this same two match
lead that was to prove the Tar Heels'
margin of victory.
Deering Wins t
Carolina's Tom Deering, started
things off on the right foot by beating
VMI's Sadow 5-3 and tying Balmenti.
Howard Imbrey, another Tar Heel foil
man defeated both Sadow and Balmen
ti, 5-4, 5-2. Kinsolving, the star of the
cadet swordsmen, gave his team a big
boost by winning his three foil bouts
He defeated Deering, Imbrey and Stan
ley Ribak by scores of 5-1, 5-1, 5-4,
Sadow added to the VMI score in the
foils by outpointing Otto Neuhaus.
The invaders came back strong in
the epee division to take three out of
four matches. Harry Vinokur defeated
Cadets Martin and Sadow both by 3-1
counts. Martin then returned to beat
Deering by the same margin.
Sabre Stand-off
The two teams battled to a stand-off
in the sabre division. Bob Tolmach ac
counted for the Carolina scoring when
he defeated Kinsolving, number one
man for the Virginia club and Beaulac
by identical score, 5-1. Tar Heel Cap
tain Larry Hutton bowed to Beaulai
5-3 and Kinsolving came back to out-
fence Morton Cantor, 5-1.
by the sophs all afternoon. Frank Har
dy arid Ike Taylor tied for fifth.
The 330 had such a large number of
contestants that it was run off in a
series of four heats. Mike Wise flew
around the indoor track in the first
heat in :37.3 to win his heat and turn
in the best time of the whole four for
first place in the 330. But he was not
alone in that first heat, for Rich Van
Wagoner another busy man this af
ternoon was so close on the heels of
"Little Hot" that he was clocked in
the same time. Dick Hollander's third
place time of :38.4 in the first heat
was good enough to give him a final
fifth place. Roy. Cathey grabbed the
third slot by winning his heat in :38
flat, but "he had to fight off a tre
mendous closing drive by junior Jack
Kelley who finished one-tenth of a sec
ond behind him to take fourth place
in the final standings. -
Lewis is "Iron Man"
Wimpy Lewis gave the seniors an
other first when he led the pack home
in the mile and one-half run in 7:31.
The "iron man" of the day Wimpy
ran in all the dashes as well as. the
longer run took the lead away from
Lamar Wood at the three-quarter
mark and won by two seconds from
freshman distance star, Marvin Fair
child. Freshman Arnold Pestronk was
third with Wood and Riggs fourth and
fifth for the senior class.

Williams, Harris Are
Only Carolina Victors
By Mark Garner
Minus the services of an eligible 155-pounder, the Carolina mitt
men lost to a well-balanced team of Citadel punchers by a 5-2
count in Woollen gym last night. It was the third loss of the sea
son for the Tar Heels.
Louis Lempesis of the Citadel, probably the top 155-pound boxer
in the conference, took one point for the visitors without lifting
a glove when Kendall Willis, the Carolina entry in that weight, was
declared ineligible due to scholastic difficulties.
Walt Williams, 240-pound heavy- S
weight, upheld Carolina's honor in the right and landed several telling punch
final bout of the evening with a TKO es on Eoundy in the final round. Roun
over the Cadets' Alec Rolison in 35 dy loosed looping rights in the first
seconds of the third round. The bout nnrf w ha mA Tn0r;on n,
was by far the most lively of the card
and and the small crowd of fight fans
was well-pleased with the action.
Williams threw every punch in the
books at Rolison in the first round and
kept his opponent at bay with a loop
ing right to the head. In the second
stanza Williams battered Rolison to the
floor twice with a flurry of hard lefts
to the body and swinging rights to the
head, and 35 seconds after the start
of the last round knocked Rolison thru
the ropes for a TKO.
Harris Earns Decision
Milt Harris, the Tar Heels' entry in
the 135-pound weight, carried the fight
to Citadel's Jack Foster in the first
two rounds and earned a decision for
the only other Carolina win. Harris
took rounds one and two on rights to
the head and left jabs to the body. In
the second period, he had Foster at his
mercy with a smashing right hand but
the South Carolinian recovered fast and
took the final round from the tiring
Harris.
In the 127-pound division, Carolina's
Captain Johnny Johnston drew with
Lloyd Williams of the Cadets in a
match that left little to be desired in the
way of action. The men fought evenly
during the first round with body punch
es by Williams and strong left jabs
to the head by Johnston featuring.
Williams showed more aggressiveness
in the second stanza and earned enough
points to draw with Johnston who car
ried the third round by virtue of his
continual jabs to the head and shoul
ders. Roundy Bows to Hoffman
In the opener, Dick Roundy lost a

finished strong for the decision.
Fred White lost a one-point decision
to Harry Helman of the visitors in the
175-pound weight. Helman used his
lightning-like left effectively keeping
White at arm's length and prevented
his opponent from landing aangerous
right until the final round. Helman
flashed rights and lefts to the head in
the second period and drove White into
the ropes but the Tar Heel puncher
took all that was thrown in his direction
and came back swinging rights to the
head until the final bell.
