TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1946 Page Three THE DAILY TAR HEEL Heels Aminex Gomferen Harrier rrn lar PORT with IRWIN SMALLWOOD Shades of Duke-Carolina Classic... DUKE-CAROLINA AFTERMATH: The broad smile that lit up the face of Carl Snavely with the blowing of the final whistle in Kenan stadium Saturday afternoon was as wide as ever yester day, but the silver-haired Dutchman was thinking in terms of bowl bids and Virginia "T" formation plays instead of just the victory over the Blue Devils. With the Rose Bowl and Orange Bowl signed and sealed, what with Rice closing the deal yesterday to play Tennessee, the big bowl in question now is the Sugar Bowl classic in New Orleans. And the -Tar Heels are being men tioned as one of the top choices to play the Georgia-Georgia Tech winner, that is if they defeat Virginia Saturday. "We have received the usual greetings and feelers from several of the bowls," Snavely said yesterday afternoon, "but there is nothing tangible. I'm of the opinion that neither of the contestants in the Sugar Bowl will be de cided until after Saturday's game." Another question is being asked, and that is whether Carolina would ac cept any bowl bid or not. That is a hard question to answer, but Snavely is of the opinion that the Carolina officials would be favorable to one if the team voted for it. However, the Tar Heels aren't letting bowl talk interfere with their intentions this Saturday, for from all we hear they are tninking only of Virginia and of beating the Cavaliers in the traditional battle. Our own personal opnion of the bowl lineups are a little unfounded, or at least without too much qualification, but from all reports and indications, we believe that Carolina, providing the Tar Heels get by Virginia, will meet the Georgia Tech-Georgia winner in the Sugar Bowl. But we share Snavely's opinion that nothing will be decided until after the games Saturday. It all remains for time to straighten out, but how long a time we cannot say. Another Southern conference championship became the property of Caro lina yesterday afternoon, but not without some anxiety. (The meet went to the Tar Heels by a score of 33-34 over second-place Maryland.) "We were plenty scared there for a while," puffed Coach Dale Ranson yes terday following the meet. "I was out on the trail and saw the strong bid Maryland was making, and it caused me no end of worry until the final tabu lations were made. I think special credit is due Jack Milne, for his position was one we really needed and we were doubtful as to how he could do. The boy hasn't even run since the IC4A meet because of a bruised heel, but he went out today despite the handicap and came in third." Jimmy Miller, the Tar Heel Harrier captain, came in first and established a course record to lead Carolina to the victory, turning in the exceptional time of 20:00.3,' 8.7 seconds ahead of second-place Jimmy Davis of Duke. Mark Burnham, a top notch Carolina runner, ran into a little trouble, passing out on the course but recovering to finish 13th. He collapsed again at the finish line. His never quit attitude is also to be commended, as is the entire opera tion of the Tar Heels, who have been beaten only in the IC4A running this season. The Ransonmen meet Virginia Saturday between the half of the foot ball game. A familiar face was around for the Carolina-Duke game Saturday, and it was none other than All-American guard Jim Jordan, a star of the Ben Car-nevale-coached White Phantoms basketball team last season. Jordan, now at Kentucky following his discharge from the navy, has been suffering from leg trouble, however, and thinks he may not do any playing at all this winter. "I haven't practiced for nearly a month," Jordan said, "and I'm afraid my playing days may be over. Things sure look good around here, and it's good to be back, even if only for a visit." . . .Duke didn't get past its own 38-yard line after its touchdown Saturday, made minus seven yards net rushing and five yard3 passing. A credit indeed to the Tar Heel line. Charlie Justice has a good chance to finish as high scorer among Southern conference elevens if he can tally a touchdown or two this week. At present the Carolina Express is tied with Jack Cloud of William and Mary, both having registered nine touchdowns in nine games for a total of 54 points. Leo Long of Duke is second with 42 points, made on seven touchdowns. Carolina's Billy Myers is tied for sixth place with 36 points along with Rock Brinkley of Wake Forest, and can jump up with Long by scoring one touchdown this week. We had a "flat" day of predicting this past week, at least personally speak ing, even though we called the touchdowns correct on the Carolina-Duke skirmish. Bob Goldwater and Jim Pharr led the Daily Tar Heel predicting field this week with 17 for 20, Bill Woestendiek was second with 16 for 20, Fred Flagler and yours truly fell to 14 for 20, and George Stirnweiss nego tiating 13 for 20 to round out the picture.

A win will give them a tie with Arkansas for the South western conference championship. Gridmen Get Day Off After Weekend Win For the first time since before the opening clash, Carolina's grid men had a weekday free from prac tice yesterday as Coach Carl Snave ly rewarded the team for its spark ling performance last week against Duke. This afternoon the Tar Heels will start preparations for their final game of the season against Vir ginia at Charlottesville Saturday. Coaches Crowell Little and Tuck McConnelL who scouted the Cava liers in their 21-0 romp over West Virginia last week, reported that the Virginians are strong in the backfield and will probably be at a psychological peak for the battle with Carolina, just as they were several weeks ago .against Princeton. Carolina Cops 33-34 Victory Over Maryland Miller Takes First In Four-Team Field By Morty Schaap The Carolina harriers annexed the Southern conference cross-country-crown by eking out a 33-34 victory over the Maryland team. The triumph was scored over a four-team field yesterday afternoon over the Caro lina four-mile course. Jimmy Miller, Tar Heel captain, paced the field and won decisively over Jim Davis of Duke in the time of 20:00.3. This time knocks almost 23 seconds off the course record. Stirling Kehoe of Maryland took an early lead but before the runners had passed the football practice field Mil ler and Alvin Smith of Carolina had moved up front. At the one-mile mark the Tar Heels had Smith, Miller, Burn ham and Magill in the lead. At the 2 -mile point it was Miller and Davis of Duke followed by a group of four Maryland men and four Carolina men. Deadmen's Hill proved the falling point for the Ransonmen as Smith, Burnham, and Francis all fell back while the Maryland team moved right up on the heels of Miller and Davis At the top of the hill and heading into the stretch Jack Milne moved up into the third spot on Davis's heels.
