Week of Grid Drills To start ooay More Players Will Report Next Monday Snavely Slices Squad 25 Per Cent By Fred Flagler This morning at 9:30 Coach Snave ly and his charges will begin the sec ond week of drills, and Monday some new arrivals will report for practice j adding to the work of the coaching staff which- cut the squad this week 25 per cent. . . Yesterday afternoon marked the last practice session in a week of drills. The feature of "yesterday's football schooling was the running of plays. Three and four teams worked in scattered spots on the field with the careful eyes of the coaches watching the plays. Passing attacks were worked on too, as well as running plays. Time and time again the boys ran the plays through opposition in what might easily be called light scrimmaging. "Thy look all right, but we will have disappointments. I haven't had time to think much about what they will do," Coach Snavely said yester day. He was all work again too as he instructed managers to keep the .crowds back when his anxious squad started running plays over most of the field. . M angurn To FaceLewis In Intramural Final Round t .

This year there is a large field of boys eager to try their luck with Coach Snavely. Shortages of equipment and hous ing facilities have been factors leading to the necessity of cutting players off the squad. Snavely said, "It's tough dropping a player from your squad when he likes to play football." Snave" ly has been employing his pruning knife with reluctance, but he will have to keep weeding players out because the 25 per cent cut last week will be replaced Monday when another 25 boys report for duty. More Coming The incoming group is composed mostly, of boys who had experience last year. Some of the boys who will be out on the practice field Monday are ends Max Cooke, Mike Rubish and Bob Cox; tackle Stan Marczyk; guard Bob Mitten; center Dan Stieg man; backs Bod Warren, Alex Fear ing, Bill Flamish apd Jim Camp. Though the coaches express an air of pessimism over the 1946 prospects, observers of the drill can't help but feel that the Tar Heels will pack a mighty wallop on the gridiron this fall. Backfield Punch The impressive feature of practice sessions thus far has been the smooth work of the back field material. Last year Snavely's squad lacked a back- 1 V 5. 4 j Tar H ,!

Jack Hussey, on the right, played for High Point high school when Billy Myers was cut ting capers for Lexington high school back in 1939. Hussey entered Carolina in 1940, and Myers in 1941. In 1943 the two operated a formid able passing attack, with Myers tossing the billet and Hussey receiving it. It remains to be seen what they will do this fall, but Coach Snavely is more than glad to have both of them. eel Tankmen Lead In Regional AAU Meet Closing Session Slated For Today With 13 Swimming Events On Card By Jim Pharr ' field which could handle puntiner. passing and running. There just wasn't anything triple-threat about the backs. Ball totin won't be neglected this year because such men as Hosea Rod gers, plunging fullback, Jack Fitch, fleet-footed wing back, Charlie Jus tice, triple-threater, Bill Maceko, an other versatile back, Billy Myers and .Billy Britt, tailbacks will be around to answer that call for Snavely. Up to date, Snavely hasn't set his mind on any one backfield combination because there is still time to go before he will be satisfied. The blocking back pctet remains a tig question mark, and it will probably Be just a few days before the' VPI contest on September 28 before Snavely has any definite notion of the starting four. Later On Just what the old Gray Fox has will never be known until far in the sea son when the Tar Heels get their real tests. Snavely, like all coaches, doesn't want to do any predicting. His main job now is to get his footballers in shape, and then sit back come game time tp see what they can do for them selves. It's virtually a month before the opening tilt, and even though the bulk of the prospects have a lot of ex perience, Snavely will continue to drill his brand of football to boys which have played under a lot of different coaches.

Socrates. a BE COMFORTABLE RIDE I N A CAROLINA CAB Stacy Dominates Intramural Softball All-Star Outfit The Intramural Softball officials gathered around assistant-director Taylor Dodson's - desk at Wool len Gymnasium Monday to nominate the summer session's All-Star Softball team. When the smoke of debate cleared, Old Stacy walked away with the dominant share of the laurels. Unanimous choices for the best soft ball pitchers on the campus were Pete Arnaiz of Old East and Dodson Palm er of Sigma Chi fraternity. Arnaiz has survived the second session with out a single loss. Often his backing has been scattered but that just gives the big boy an excuse to really bear down. To his credit this session go a no-hitter and a couple of one-hitters. Palmer has been a regular for Sigma Chi and has something which is a bit rare among the pitchers of this ses sion s soitbaii control. Hodges oi Mangum and Dill of the Pharoahs re ceived equal nominations as relief hurlers. The catching spot went to big J. B. Lee of Stacy. His work has been characterized by slashing line drives through short stop. Not even a broken nose gathered at the hands of a care less bat could hold him out of more than one game, and that was against his will. Several votes went for Cor- rell, the boy who catches Hodges on the strong Mangum team. Tie at First At the first base slot Hemingway, last term's ali-campus selection, and George Clark tied. Both these boys are strong left-hand hitters and cap able fielders. - Ed Alexander, one of the cleanest and smartest sof tball players in the competition, took the shortstop posi tion home to Stacy.. Few men come up to Ed in sportsmanship and team spirit. He frets like a prize retriever when a ball gets through him. Outfielders Mock, from Lewis dormitory, won a close battle for the starting left-field position. Charlie Cole of Stacy was unamious choice for the center-field spot and Brown of Steele Dormitory took the first string run-off in right field. All three of these boys send the outfielders back when they come up for their turn at bat, because all are potential home run hitters.
