The baseball season is getting along
toward the halfway mark and still
the Yankees increase their lead. The
pace setters are way out in front now
having won 41 and dropped only 13
and from all indications will take the
pennant again in awalk. The second
place Red Sox have an eight-game
streak under their collective belts
but their slate today reveals only
32 victories against 23 defeats. The
last of August should offer plenty of
fireworks as the two teams go into
the stretch, so don't count the Red
Sox out yet despite the Yankee's nine
and a half game advantage.
The unpredictable Dodgers, who
have been plagued by postponements
of late, finally saw action1 Sunday
against the Reds and split a double
header with the third-placers! The
Dodgers are riding high now but their
invasion of the West may prove too
much for the up-and-down ball club
and with such squads as the Cards,
Reds, and Pirates hot on the trail, the
senior circuit winner is still very
much unsettled. a
O
They must have had quite a show
in the Polo Grounds last Sunday.
Birdman Cornelius Warmerdam vault
ed 14 feet, 8 inches, Greg Rice spun
around the turf in a two mile run,
there was a lacross game, a tennis
match with Don Budge and Alice Mar
ble the features, and Joe Louis in his
v khaki. Even clown Al Schacht was
cutting up as usual and all for the
benefit of the Army and Navy relief
fund. Incidental to the other activi
ties was a baseball game in which a
Navy pitcher named Bob Feller won a
4-0 decision over the Army's Eugh
Mulcahy, another ex big-leaguer.
O
Heard an interesting story the
other day about the Cooper to Cooper
battery of the St. Louis Cards. The
pair hit the headlines last month by
taking a 1-0 -win from Whit Wyatt
and the Dodgers. Mort Cooper fire
balled the Dodgers into submission
and brother Walker blasted out a
triple and scored for the lone run of
the contest. But it all dates back to
the day Miss Frances Montgomery of
the grade school in Atherton, Mo.,
was so impressed by how fast little
Morty Cooper could throw a baseball
that she decided the school should
have a ball team. No boy in school
could catch the ball except kid brother
Walker. So Walker became the catch
er and Manager Montgomery had a
fair nucleus for a club.

Harris Everett, former Co-captain
of the Carolina tennis team and now
touring the summer circuit before he
enters the Navy Air Corps, has been
making quite a name for himself in

the tennis world of late. The Jack
sonville, Fla., netter was beaten in
the finals of the Middlesex Bowl sin
gles championship last week by Gard
ner Mulloy, one of the few remain
ing ranking amateur racket wielders.
Everett earned some consolation how
ever by teaming with Mulloy to win
the doubles title from Chauncey

in the national Clay Court tourney at
Chicago this week.

The old Manassa Mauler, Jack
Dempsey, is back at the game but
this time in a new capacity. He now
is a lieutenant, senior grade, in the
United States Coast Guard and will
head the physical training program
of the service's Manhattan Beach sta
tion on Long Island. Dempsey is de
termined to do his share toward win
ning the war and entered his new job
with good intentions. "I'm going to
teach them all the rough stuff," he
said when he was sworn in. "This is
a rough, tough war and the Marquis
of Queensbury rules are out'. My stu
dents will learn the dirty and most
effective way to fight." The old boxer
still has plenty of fight in him.

Gleaned from the news. . . . The
Philadelphia Record ran its major
league standings upside down the
other day just to give the sports fans
a chance to see how it would look
with the Phillies and Athletics on top.

when Bob Ginn of Nebraska, and Le

an extra long 150-foot runway built

Red Sea Now Covers
Famed Biblical Cities
The best evidence available to date
is that in the area now under the
water of the southern end of the Dead
sea must be sought the remains of
Sodom and Gomorrah and of the other
two cities, Admah and Zeboiim, ac
cording to Dr. J. P. Harland, Univer
sity archaeologist, in an article in the
current issue of the Biblical Archae
ologist, published by the American
Schools of Oriental Research.
Entitled "Sodom and Gomorrah
the Location of the Cities of the
Plain," the article is based on the as
sembled evidence from the 'Bible,
Greek, Latin, and Jewish writers,
from the accounts of travelers, and
from the scientific reports in the fields
of archaeology and geology, Dr. Har
land said.
A second article by Dr. Harland on
"The Destruction of Sodom and Go

in a subsequent issue of the Biblical
Archaeologist.

'Chuck' Erickson, Assistant
Athletic Director, in Navy
Former Student
Coached Golf
For Nine Years '
Bringing to seven the number of
Carolina coaches and physical educa
tion instructors in the Naval service,
Charles (Chuck) Erickson, Acting As
sistant Athletic Director and golf
coach, left Chapel Hill Sunday for
Annapolis where he will undergo six
weeks training before rceiving his
commission as a lieutenant (jg) in the
Navy.
Erickson was recently appointed to
fill the vacancy created when George
(Bo) Shepard, Assistant Athletic
Director entered the service. A suc
cessor to Erickson has not yet been
named and it is likely that the ath
letic staff will divide the duties of the
office until some definite decision can
be made.
A graduate of Carolina in the class
of 1931, Erickson served as varsity
golf coach for nine years and was
backfield coach for the Tar Heel foot
ball teams under Coach Ray Wolf.
During his student days, Coach Erick
son starred at halfback on the 1928,
1929, 1930 football teams and later
received his degree in civil engineer
ing. Since graduation he has been an
assistant coach in both varsity and
freshman football and served one year
as head freshman football coach. His
golf teams have repeatedly been
among the top collegiate squads m
the South and this year ran up a
record of six wins and two defeats
with the pair of losses coming at the
hands of Duke's perennially powerful
linksmen. Erickson's most successful
season was in 1937 when his squad
dropped only one match.
Naval Unit Holds

A captain's calling party sponsored
by the Naval Pre-Flight Training

ing of the Pre-Flight school were

CVTC Organizes
For Summer Term;
Meeting Today
Col. W. A. Raborg, USA retired and
director of the CVTC, announced yes
terday that the first meeting of the
CVTC for the Summer quarter would
be held in Gerrard hall this afternoon
at 5:30.
Enrollments for the training have
been so small that no classroom work
will be given this quarter. Anyone
who plans to register for the course
should do so at Col. Raborg's office at
101 South building. There will be no
registration at the meeting this after
noon. "The main work this summer will
be concentrated on training the boys
to be leaders of the unit next fall," Col.
Raborg said. "The correct way to give
orders and the correct military stance
will be dealt with thoroughly, but basic
military training will also be taught."
Fifth Discussion
Meet Opens at WC
The Fifth Annual Institute of Inter
national Relations session will open
this summer from June 19-27 at the
Woman's College of the University of
North Carolina in Greensboro.
The Institute will devote its efforts
to the "World We Want to Live In"
after the war. The work this year is
based upon Franklin Roosevelt's con
victions as set down in a speech on
December 29, 1941, when he said, "It
is perfectly clear that it will be futile
to win the war unless during its win
ning we lay the foundations for the
kind of peace and readjustment that
will guarantee the preservation of
those aspects of American life for
which the war is fought."
Many of these members have spent
much of their life in Europe which has
qualified them to instruct concerning
the method of world settlement after
the war.
Costs of enrollment will be low to
facilitate a widespread attendance.
