Track Squad Will
Hold Meet Today
On Fetzer at 4:15
As a preview to intensive out
door practice for the cindermen
Coach Dale Ranson will hold a
squad meeting this afternoon for
all runners on the indoor track
team and also for any interested
applicants. The meeting will get
under way at 4 :30 today in the
stands at Fetzer Field.
Plans will be announced for
the coming outdoor schedule
which will get under way in
about a month and features dual
meets with most of the track
powers in the South.
' Carolina will be trying for a
clean sweep of track honors in
the Southern Conference. So
far this year the tracksters have
captured the Conference cross
country title and only two weeks
ago scored a decisive win in the
Invitational Games held here.
With these runners forming a
nucleus around which Coach
Ranson should be able to again
mold a championship team and
with several former stars re
turning from service, there
seems to be little doubt of the
team's potentialities.

Tar Heels Eked Out Violets
In Last Meeting in Garden
Coach Carne vale Is Pushing Workouts
In Preparation for Cage Classic Test
By Irwin Smallwood
The generally recognized No. 1 basketball team in the nation
New York University will be the opposition as the Tar Heels play
in the first round of the National Collegiate tournament, it was
learned from the United Press last night. .
Pairings, which
origma
were to have been made next
Monday, were decided upon yes
terday in New York, throwing
the White Phantoms of Coach
Ben Carnevale against NYU,
and Ohio State against Harvard
in first round play. Winners of
these games Thursday night,
March 21, will meet on Saturday
night, the 23rd, for the eastern
championships, and . that victor
will play the western winner for
the -National title.
Meanwhile, Coach Carnevale
sent his Phants through the first
workout since the Southern con
ference tournament yesterday
aiternoon, tne lads going
through warmup, passing and
defensive drills. A little half-
court scrimmage was held, but
nothing was on a large scale
since the boys have all been at
rest for a little more than a
week.
The White Phantoms were at
full strength at the practice,
with Bones McKinney and
Johnny Dillon both fully recov
ered from injuries and ailments.

about 7,000 miles of coaxial cable will be added to
A our plant during the next few years. Inside each
cable are six or eight copper tubes each pair a broad
communications highway over which two television
programs or nearly 500 long distance telephone calls
can travel. Giant plow-trains will "plant" much of this
cable deep in the ground safe from storm and fire.
This construction is but a part of our activity in the
television field. Now in an advanced experimental stage
are plans to link coaxial cables and high frequency
radio relay systems to provide' a nationwide television
network.
Our part in television is the transmission of pro
grams from one station to another. As this new industry
develops, the Bell System will be prepared to provide
whatever network facilities are needed.

however, were not present be
cause of conflicting baseball
drills.
"It is going to be tough,"
Coach Carnevale commented yes
terday afternoon upon hearing
the news of the pairings, "be
cause those NYU boys are out
for revenge against us for that
defeat we handed them Decem
ber 27th. The boys here are glad
to get another shot at them,
though, for they are "generally
ranked as the top team in the
country."
Only Carolina and CCNY have
been able to turn the trick
against the vaunted Violet of
NYU, and with this record,
NYU will be the favorite to take
Eastern honors. In the western
division of the NCAA tourney,
Oklahoma A. and M., with high-
scoring Bob Kurland, is expected
to come through victorious, but
an upset may be in the making
with such teams as Kansas, Cali
fornia and Colorado in the race.
This is just Carolina's second
trip to the National event, the
last time being in 1941 when
George Glamack and his great
team played there. Glamack set
a, tournament record that year,
scoring 31 points against Dart
mouth.
Coaches Carnevale and Mullis
will be taking the Tar Heels on
their third northern swing of
the season, the Phantoms having
knocked off NYU and St.
Josephs on one and Navy
another.

Big Four League
Will Open Season
Here On April 17
A new name, a new member
and two new coaches will feature
the former Ration League when
the 1946 season opens on April
17 under the name of the Big
Four. College baseball at its
best is forecast when this cir
cuit swings into action.
The Ration League was form
ed in 1943 when travel condi
tions prohibited long trips by
college teams, but witK the close
of the war the loop directors de
cided to change the name to Big
Four.
The Pre-Flight team of Caro
lina, a staunch member of the
loop, is no longer operating and
the Wake Forest Deacons have
resumed baseball to replace the
Cloudbusters. Duke, Carolina
and N. C. State round out the
league.
Vic Sorrell, former big league
pitcher has taken over the coach
ing duties at State, replacing
Beattie Feathers, and Murray
Greason, basketball mentor, will
coach the Deacon baseballers.
Jack Coombs at Duke and Bunn
Hearn at Carolina are holdover
tutors.
The league has adopted a rule
requiring that a player must
participate in at least 10 games
of the circuit schedule to be elig
ible for the batting champion
ship. This will eliminate numer
ous disputes arising in the past
when a player in comparatively
few games came up with a fat
batting average and his admirers
claimed the title for him. The
stick champion now will have to
show his ability in at least 10
games.
Games postponed by rain or
other causes must be played off
the following day, provided both
teams have open dates. This is
to prevent piling up of numer
ous double-headers at the end of
the race.
Carolina won the league cham
pionships in 1943-45, while Pre
Flight copped the . bunting in
1944. Thus, all three pennants
have been won by Chapel Hill
entries and the other members
of the circuit will be out gun
ning this year to see that the
gonfalon flies from a mast out
side the Hill.
