TAR HEELING: If you are
you have to have someone to throw them past the opposition from
the mound, and the want of such is causing Coach Bunn Hearn no
end of worry as his Tar Heels accelerate spring training.
On hand for this season aref
several veterans of last year's
Ration league champs, but only
one man who saw any action on
the hill will be present to
strengthen this season's nine
through its tough schedule
ahead. "If we don't have some
good pitching, we are going to
be out of luck with our hard
slate," Coach Hearn said yes
terday afternoon in his new of
fice at Emerson "field. "We have
some pretty good prospects, but
only one man has been in a col
lege ball game before," he said.
Last year's top three, Red
Forrest, Chuck Hayne and
Tommy Andrew, will all be ab
sent this year, and only Lefty
McElrath is back. Forrest will,
- be able to go in one or two
early games, but he is heading
for the Harvard Med school at
the beginning of next term.
On deck with good things ex
pected of them are rookies Hamp
Coleman, Vinny DiLorenzo,
Johnny Richardson and Vic Blue.

things "are in pretty good
order" according to the veteran
Carolina baseball tutor, with in
fielders John Gregory, George
Thompson, Red Hughes, Zeke

to have a winning baseball team
Heels will be more than happy
to get another chance to make
the Violet turn even more pale.
From our relatively unin
formed position here, it is hard
and even impossible to venture
a guess as to the strength of the
other two teams in te eastern
playoffs, but only the records can
be taken as a judgment. How
ever, we have seen the Violets
of NYU perform, against the
Tar Heels, and the No. 1 rank
ing Yankees are going to be
more than tough to pull down
from their favored position . . .
One thing must be remembered,
though. Carolina beat the Vio
lets without their new addition,
Mr. Redhead (McKinney), and
this gives the Tar Heels some
improvement to match with the
much-publicized uphill fight of
NYU. We'll tell you how the
game is going to come out for
sure March 22 (after the game),
OUR HEARTY congratula
tions (trite isn't it) to a good
gang of Marine intramural'
cagers. They played superbly
in beating SAE for the cam
pus championship, played as
they have all year as one of
the smoothest mural combines
ever to hit Carolina. They won
in great fashion, and this is
one tourney where the best
team did win .... . The basket
ballers of Coach Ben Carne-
vale are being feted twice this
week, once tonight by the
Chapel Hill Rotary club, ad
tomorrow night in Durham by
an alumnus. A good stroke for
a good ball club.
For those wondering when the
basketball . coaching situation
here at Carolina will be settled
here's the dope we get : Nothing
has been decided yet, but a de
cision may be reached in the first
athletic council meeting after
the next quarter begins, around
April 7 . . . Rumors and opin
ions have flown from source to
source for weeks- now, and we
feel we carry the majority of the
opinion of the student body,
alumni and Carolina supporters
in favoring the contracting of
present Coach Ben Carnevale
for the job.

Cherry Point Meets Dolphins Today

Carolina's Blue Dolphins,
working Out daily in preparation
for the National Intercollegiate
Championship's, will play host
to the Cherry Point Marines
this afternoon in an informal
meet at the Bowman Gray Pool.
ine contest, m wnicn no
score will be kept, will get under
way at four o'clock, and each
team may put in as many swim
mers in each event as it desires.
The Casjey brothers, coaches ; of
the Dolphins, plan to enter at
least three men in each event,
thus giving everyone on the
team a chance to compete.
Highlights of the afternoon
are expected to be in the sprints
and in the diving. Cherry Point
has Otto Shaffhauser and Bob
Jacks in the short distances,
both of whom did outstanding
ly in the Carolinas AAU meet
held here the 2nd of February.
Pitted against them will prob
ably be Morrow and Ward for
Carolina. In the diving, reports
are that the Marines have two
men that will match Erie and
Swigart.
Cherry Point is practicing
for the National AAU meet thaf
will be staged at Bainbridge
Naval Training Station the 6th
of April, and arrangements may
be made today for the Blue Dol
phins to travel to the coast next
week for a return meet with the
Marines.
The Carolina swimmers will
remain here during the spring
vacation to practice, but whether
they will be able to use the Bow
man Gray pool is a matter of
conjecture. Possibilities are that
they will practice in the Duke
pool or over at N. C. State while
the skylight is being repaired,
but no negotiations have been
commenced!" as yet with the of
ficials of those institutions.
Carolina is entered in the Na
tional Intercollegiate at Yale
University in New Haven on the
30th of March. There they will
meet the cream of the collegiate
swimmers of the country and
their performance will determine
their national ranking. Ohio
State is generally favored to
take the crown without being
pressed too hard, an opinion
which gained backing when the
Buckeyes swept the Big Ten con
ference championship at Min
nesota last Saturday with a total
of seventy-five points.

Guard As Sixth Man On Team

Taylor Starred as Freshman in 1942
When North Carolina's five aces, representing a trick illegal in
cards but necessary in championship basketball, are having rough
going, Coach Ben Carnevale doesn't have too many worries. He
merely produces a sixth one, vest pocket size, and sends him into
the fray.

Daily Practice
Starting Today
For Cindermen
At a meeting of the members
of the outdoor track team held
yesterday at Fetzer Field,
Coaches Dale Hanson and Joe
Hilton outlined their plans for
the coming campaign. The sea
son will feature -a particularly
heavy schedule with the first
duel meet being planned for
April 13.
Practice is again being put
back on a (laily basis in order
to speed up the squad's con
ditioning. While nearly fifty boys
turned out for yesterday's meet
ing it is still not too late for any
interested boys to come down
any atternoon this weeK and
speak to the coaches.
Several additional members
of the physical education staff
are expected out to share the
coaching duties, in the hope of
again capturing the Conference
title.
Coach Hearn Holds
Intra-Squad Game
Carolina's baseball squad held
their second intrasquad game of
the week yesterday afternoon
as Coach Bunn Hearn sent in
three teams during the course
of the informal fray.
Six pitchers saw action dur
ing the contest. Harry Beeson
and Al Chappell, both outfield
ers provided the heavy stick
work with two hits apiece. Bee

day's scrimmage: '

That strategy usually is suc-
cessful, and for that the Phan
toms thank Taylor Thorne, the
fiery, scrappy guard whose en
trance into a game has often
meant a sudden wave of pros
perity and victory for the Tar
Heels.
In Air Force
The 5'10" guard, a GI from
Rocky Mount, N. C, who spent
the war years as a member of
the Army air force ground crew,
will doubtless see much action
when Carolina plays in the East
ern playons 01 tne JN.U.A.A.
basketball tourney March 21-23-
26 in Madison Square Garden.
A slick ballhandler, a com
petent playmaker and a good
shot, Thome's main forte is his
fight and will to win. He dashes
around the court much in the
manner of a PT boat among de
stroyers, scrapping, turning,
diving, with possession of the
ball anoa Carolina score his only
thought.
Freshman Star
Taylor got his start on the
1942 freshman team at Chapel
Hill. 4f ter 31 months in the AAF
he returned here and stepped
into a starting guard berth in
the season's opening games, a
post he now divides with Jim
White and Don Anderson, all of
whom play approximately equal
time.
His set shot, which quite often
goes swish, was the main scor
ing device which netted him 118
points in the Phantoms' 29
regular season tiffs. Transferr
ing to forward because of the ill
ness of John Dillon, he hit for
18 points to lead the point-get
ters against Catawba in one of
the campaign's late games.
