Normalcy comes about in stages in the reswitch from war to
peacetime operations . . . and Carolina will take another big
step back to the agenda of old next winter with the reinstating
of the annual Southern conference indoor games.
"We hope to have conference competition starting again
next winter' Coach Bob Fetzer said this week as he sat behind
his stacked desk in Woollen gym pondering the many problems
of athletic director.
But right now "Coach Bob," as he is commonly known by all,
has something- more immediate on his mind, and that is the
fourth annual Carolina Invitational indoor games, wartime sub
stitute for the Conference meet. Saturday Coach Fetzer and
Coach Dale Ranson will give Carolina fans what we expect
to be the best of the four invitational meets we have produced
since 1942," to put it in the words of Coach Fetzer.
"A lot more high calibre athletes are entering this year than
last," Coach Fetzer pointed out, "but the competitive spirit
will still be below that of our regular conference games. That's
what goes to make a real contest."
"Indoor track is rapidly gaining in popularity," the ageing
controller of Carolina athletic activity continued. "It is the
winter track inside that really makes outdoor track what it is.
Both are needed for successful teams, but I believe this indoor
running is definitely on the upgrade."
Here "Coach Bob" leaned back and began reminiscing of the
infant days of indoor t.rack in Tar Heelia.
"I remember when we ran our first meet," he recalled. "It was
in the old Big Star warehouse in Durham during the 1922-23
season. We didn't have a board track but just ran on the floor.
"This, was pretty hazardous running, too, and before long we
had to put up inclined boards on the turns to keep a man from
literally running into the stands. We ran two meets with Trin
ity (now Duke) there, and then we transferred to the Tin Can.
"Our present board track, which incidentally is patterned
after that of Madison Square Garden, was built in 1936 at a
cost of $1800, and in the meantime we had initiated the SC in
door games in 1930. The late Forest Fletcher, of Washington
and Lee, helped in getting things started, and it was his team
that won the very first meet." (Note: Since 1930, Carolina
has taken jiine firsts, Duke three and W. and L. one).
After 13 good years, the meet had to be abandoned with the
coming of the war, but the Invitational was put in its place
temporarily and served well. "It will be good to get back to
the old conference battling, though," the track mentor chimed
in.
Busy "Coach Bob's" phone rang then, "and our chat with the
old man of track himself came to a close, but not without leav
ing us with a deep respect for indoor track and the work be
hind its development and promotion.
We have been approached the last few days by a number of
the leaders in mural basketball play, and there seems to be
some dissatisfaction with the way the cage champion is to be
decided.
To put it in the words of one of the fraternity managers, "The
frats and dorms alike feel that they are getting a raw deal. We
would like to see something done about' it, say a tournament at
least between the once-beaten and undefeated teams."
According to reports, present plans call for a playoff between
ONLY the teams with perfect records, excluding for final play
the several good quints which have lost only one game in eight
Mr. Allen of the intramural department has done an excel
lent job in promoting the two leagues, but if; the information
reaching us is correct, it appears that some added considera
tion is needed before final plans are made. The mural program
is for the students. Let's see them satisfied if possible.
(Note: Another complaint is that the unbeaten teams have
not consistently played the best of the remaining 22 teams in
each circuit.)

May Miss Saturday's Tilt At Norfolk
Horace "Bones" McKinney, North Carolina's pivot ace, joined
the sick list in the Infirmary yesterday and did not accompany
the Tar Heels to last night's game at Catawba.
The doctors had not yet announced their diagnosis, and it was
not certain whether McKinney would be well in time for the final
game with the Little Creek Amphibs in Norfolk Saturday.
Coach Ben Carnevale said Taylor Theme would replace the ail
ing star tonight with Bob Paxton going back to center.

Pi Phi's Advance
In Cage Tourney
By Beating ADPI
Emerging triumphant from
the battle of the hardwood last
Tuesday night, the Pi Phi's
chalked up 21 points to 13 for
the ADPi's. This win sends
them to the semi-finals for Soro
rity Championship. They pre
viously racked up 36 points

gas and the Tri Delts.

der by way of a forfeit from
Smith, thus having a score of
2-0.
Bill Lloyd, Pi Phi, had five tal

carnival, which is attracting a
record field of 39 teams and 286
stars from Georgia to West Vir
ginia, and which is set for 1 :30
and 7:30, will include 13 Open
and 4 Scholastic events in all,
but the middle and distance
races look like four of the .best.
Take the two-mile, for in
stance. The record is 9:55.2. But
Ted Vogel, Camp Peary's for
mer National Champion, has run
it in 9 :24, and Little Creek Am
phibs' ex-National Interscholas
tic Champion, Ed Morgan, has
done it in 9:25.
Paul Fenton of Cherry Point,
who was runner-up in the mile
here last year, and Mark Burn
ham of Carolina have both bet
tered the present record of 4 :30.2
in practice here the last few
days. This should be another
great race, for the national
champion Vogel is doubling in
the mile along with the Amphibs'
ex-National Interscholastic
champion, Bob Quinlan.
Their record in the half-mile
is 1 minute 59.6, but the all-star
Amphibs from Norfolk have
four men who have done from
1:57 to 1:59 outdoors. Jim Kent
ran for Columbia, Ken Horoho
for Seton Hall, and Bill Halsey
for North Carolina, and the
fourth is Quinlan, the ex-Inter-scholastic
winner.
Again, the meet mark for the
thrilling quarter-mile is 51.6
seconds, but Cherry Point's Lee
Vranek ran a 49 flat outdoors
at Illinois, as did the Amphibs'
Horoho at Seton Hall. North
Carolina's Dodson has been
down to close to 50.
That's some field, Judging
from the cold marks and figures,
and in addition to the series of
brilliant individual performan
ces and contests, all indications
point to a great scrap for team
honors between Carolina and
Duke among the colleges and
Little Creek and Cherry Point
among the all-star service teams.
