thrust back to their own 21-yard line
Justice's quick-kick, designed to sur
prise the Techmen, instead became a
surprise to all Tar Heelia as Oren
Hopkins blocked the punt and, pluck
ing it out of midair in almost the
same motion, raced the remaninig dis
tance to score. Ross Orr converted.
The same play occurred in the final
stanza, this time with linesmen John
Maskas and Bob Taylor blocking
and with the pigskin dropping into
Maynard Brace's outstretched hands.
Bruce was almost brought down from
the rear by the pursuing Justice but
sua across tne goal line, urr again
place-kicked the conversion to knot
the score at 14-14.
Both Teams Threaten
The remaining few minutes pro
vided the most exciting moments for
the whole afternoon as both teams
threatened to break the deadlock. Tail
backs Billy Britt and Maceyko pro
vided the spark in a Tar Heel surge
that carried to the Tech 25 before
the Gobbler line stiffened. Then came
the break that almost cost Carolina
the ball game. Dick DeShazo quick-
kicked for VPI and the wet pigskin
slid out of safety-man Johnny Cle
ments hands with Joe Hoffman recov
ering for Tech on Carolina's five-yard
line. Then it was the Tar Heels' turn
to hold and the game ended after Orr
tried a field goal from the 21-yard
line. '

sion ended the game.
Deacons Trip Eagles
Sparked by its crack halfback,
John "Red" Cochran, Wake Forest
scrapped their way to a 12-6 win over
a sluggish Boston College eleven in
a Friday night contest at Boston.
After narrowly foiling Boston's first
two touchdown threats, Wake Forest
shifted into their offense when Coch
ran ran the ball from the Deacon 2 to
the Boston 12-yard line. A previous
Eagle fumble had enabled Wake For
est fullback Brinkley to score early in
the first quarter.
Other Scores
Walton and DeShazo sparked the Gob
bler attack, while Maskas, Frank Bal
lard, and Ray Beasley were the de
fensive stars.

Carl Snavely: "We didn't "do well in
the second half. I wasn't too sur
prised. I was uneasy the minute we
failed to capitalize on our breaks in
the first half.
"It was a nice ball game for a
while, but the second half was very
disheartening. It was bad.
"A hard-f ighting VPI team out

paid off in the second half."

VPI Defense, Weather Bring
Headache to Tar Heel Fans
Game Opens Under Clear Skies, But Deluge
Dampens Planned Intermission Ceremonies
By Jim Pharr
Old man weatherman and an alert band of Virginia Tech de
fensive men combined to cause the Tar Heels to call for the Bromo,
as a shirt-sleeved crowd sat in Kenan stadium stands in Indian
summer weather yesterday afternoon to watch the brawl that
managed to bewilder Carolina supporters by winding up in a
14-14 deadlock.

Charlie Justice, Carolina's tail
back speedster from Asheville, who
helped carry the offensive punch
for the Tar Heels yesterday. His
run during the opening moments of
the game set up the first Blue and
White tally, and shortly afterward,
he dashed 6S yards for the second
score.
but it was a damned good second half.
"Carolina has a good team, but
they made lots of mistakes too and
played some bad ball. They should
have a good season."
Late Bulletin
The Cardinals were on their way
to matching the Dodgers afternoon
win last night, leading the Cubs, 4
1, in the eighth inning.
green
Kenan stadium provided a colorful
setting at game time, with fairly clear
skies and all the trimmings to pro
vide good football. By halftime, a
steady downpour of rain made John
Q. Fan wish he were home by his ra
dio, and the coeds and their dates lost
the press in their new football clothes.
Some 12,000 bobby-soxers, including
seven high school bands provided a
novel angle to the contest. Greens
boro, Henderson, Raleigh, New Bern,
Kinston, Sanford and Rocky Mount
musicians braved Jupiter Pluvieus
during the intermission to give the
drenched crowd a little music and they
managed to put on a pretty good show,
in their contrasting colors of red,
blue, yellow, and gray.
Rameses looked pretty sharp as he
strutted up and down before the stands
during the first part of the game, but
by the fourth quarter even his horns
began to droop a little from the rain
and a couple of blocked punts.
Little Charlie Justice started out
by sprinting to the three in the open
ing stanza of the game and the fans
settled hack, figuring that "It's true
what they say about 'Choo-Choo'."
Carolina's ten cheerleaders really
started to whoop it up when the little
Asheville tailback slashed off right
tackle and trucked it on down for a
68 yard TD.
Then came the second half, the de
luge, and an aroused bunch of VPI
footballers trotted on to the field and
proceeded to erase that two touchdown
advantage. An alert Mr. Hopkins
slipped through the defense, tipped
Justice's quick kick and poured it on
for paydirt before the fans could
draw a long sigh.
Tech supporters got a little more
pep when Bruce picked up another
blocked punt for the Gobblers. Ross
Orr then converted and things were
locked up tighter than a women's
dorm in the wee hours.
The fans settled back in their seats,
with the skies beginning to clear, and
wondered how much more could hap
pen in that crazy second half. It
would have to be quick, because the
relentless hour hand was running out.
After a little more jockeying around,
those opportunity-grabbing Techs set
up a field goal attempt that brought
the crowd up again. With this final
try failing, a couple more plays
wound things up and the first 1946
gridiron battle for the Tar Heels be
came one ior tne books.
