The Hash of the Feast
a wuufc a football feast in Yankee Stadium last
aturday afternoon, and like most feasts these days, there's
lough pickings of the contest left over to have hash and rehash
r the classic for the rest of the, week, month and just afcout
round to next year's Tar Heel-Irish clash. In New York, the talk
i the Carolina scare that flipped old St. Pat over in his entomb
icnt, is running stiff competition with television. And in Chapel
ill, who talks anything but football anyhow.
The New Yorkers .hadn't seen anything like the Carolina foot
all tearn since prohibition, and it seemed to them the same old
ory of someone trying to get something they had been told they
)uldn't have. And the Gofham, which had always had a soft
eart and ftomach for the bootleggers, took -to the newcomers to
ic professioi like soda to scotch. Notre Dame had won the ball
a me, but the Tar Heels had won the hearts of those who saw it.
The Tar Heels could take pride in a job well attempted, and
lough the, Irish may deny there were times when lynx-eyed
nd actioned Frank Leahy felt the wrath of the rebels breathing
vuch too far down his neck.' If be wasn't frightened, why then did
,eahy attempt a field goal in the third quarter when leading 13-6.
hen, people were asking had mighty Notre Dame, able to ex
lode for numerous touchdowns at the drop of a 'helmet, started
laying for three point margins? Did fearless Frank lose the'faith
rr a few moments? Actions speak rather loudly at Vimes.
That Black Kettle
BUT THOUGH PROUD and reasonably satisfied with the show
ig of their footballers, most of the Tar Heel, fans shared a blanket
pinion that Snave's Knaves didn't quite get paid the wage on the
corboard for the work the Carolinians put out. The Irish seemed
ided and abetted at times by breaks, natural or unnatural as your
nste may run. Called may it be, but the Notre Dame kettle looked
wful black at times.
Like when Carolina marched, with a 6-0 lead in their pockets,
the Irish 11.' Dick Bunting swept the: right- side on the following
ilay and swisked to the Notre Dame goal line. There he was. hit,
ait seemed to fall plainly into the end zone, with the chalk line
t his belt. The officials declared a big "no", and put the ball back
n the one foot line. That put the Irish back into the ball gme.
'owcr that they are, a 12 or 13 to nothing deficit, is tough to ttean
(T even the most profitable books in the land.
A second Carolina touchdown at that point would have given
he Southerners the greatest thing they've had to fight for since
he creation of the Confederate flag. The Irish took the ball" after
his effort and made quick like the touchdown. A Tar Heel touch
lown might have prevented such a hasty action, and refigure the
forth Carolina chances had, the visitors gone out 13-0 at the half.
I"he Irish might have gone out too, and not returned. Make that
he turning point in the ball game.
And Then Again
COME THE THIRD PERIOD Carolina was still sharing a half
ntercst in the ball game and had reached a point where the Irish
were being forced to punt from deep in their own back yard. Ken
I'owell, rushing in an attempt to perform his second blocked punt
f the day, almost achieved this seeemingly impossible effort, by
hardy tipping the ball and then crashing into punter Bob Williams.
'Rie referee on the scene, a Mr. Blake, was on the blink for a
moment, and didn't see the play. But when Notre Dame's Emil
Sitko pointed out to him poor Williams lying "on the ground with
Powell slightly smothering him, Blake ruled the penalty for roughing
the kicker and gave the Irish a first down. Blake, who still hasn't
.seen the play, doesn't know to this day that Powell tipped .the.
ball and therefore by the rules, may crash into the punter if he
wished.
Thot first down gave the Irish the shove they had needed to
proceed for their second and game winning touchdown, but they
still required another action beyond the scope and direction of the
rules again. And the play in question brought back memories of a
Sugar Bowl that went the way of about the same flesh.

DURHAM, Nov. 14 (P
Duke University's football squad
began preparations today for
mish with little Netre Dame intiheir final game of the season
Dame's touchdown and broke much of the spirit of a team that had'
performod one of the fiercest things in the nature of a struggle
since the invention of the term. Energized by their roughing the
kicker "break," the Irish came marching up the field, only to find
the rigidity of the Tar Heel forward wall slightly impassable.
So, the Irish's Williams went to the air and hit Leon Hart up
the middle. The big end took a couple of Tar Heels aboar.d and
then continued plowing down the field. Finally about the Carolina
25, the passengers had Hart ready to holler "uncle" when the
Irishman flipped the ball, obviously forward to teammate Billy
garret, who raced on for a score. The officals, with the greatest
.stretch of the definition of the word lateral let the play stand
and left the Tar Heels standing on the outside and looking in for
the rest of the ball game. They were pretty much- in their Dixie
cups after that.
Foe as the game wore on to the point where artificial illumi-
J nation had to be provided, the Tar Heels were obviously lacking
:n the reverse power it takes to play with ttie Irish in the late
periods. So poorly rewarded for their earlier efforts, the Southerners
-)uldn't hold the pace. It was too much to ask.'.
If There Had Been Justice
wi)yHE BIG QUESTION about the game that people who wonder
always wonder about, is the difference that Charlie Justice
y8 uhave made. Carl Snavely, who should know if anybody does,

Stitt, ipne for Charlie,
tnajor toil is hard to believe that the Choo Choo, who has taken the
years wote in most of the Tar Heel productions for the past four
of coursuld not have increased the Carolina possibilities. This is,
unce of no distraction for the .wonderfully creditable perform
ticle in one Dick Bunting, who draped himself in just such an ar-
Bu originating a miracle that couldn't quite come about,
coul't consider whut Justice's punting and quick kicking alone
y; bo-- have contributed to the". Tar Heel cause. The quick kick has
Jvn one of Carolina's best defensive weapons and some rousing
'punting would have helped to seduce the score in the final period.
And then there's nothing to compare with the constant threat of
i;in All the Way Choo Choo. Notre uame s aeiense was well-suited
for. a strong wide game and Justice is Mr. Wide Game himself.
All of which boils down to the fact that there were things
besides Irish working against the Tar Heels last Saturday and that
th Irish alone a? about all one team can take on in an afternoon.
And about the only thing Notre Dame won anyhow was the ball game
and the toss, for they certainly took the physical beating, while
the Tar Heels were reaping the more fruitful victories of friends

while William and Mary scored

Duke took sixth with 140 points
while VPI was next with 157 and
Wake Forest was last with 257.
Washington and Lee had only one
CQtry and did not figure in the
SS&ring.
Magill and Palmer put on a' bat
tle during the entire race. Pal
mer went out in front and Ma
gill passed him' at the two-mile
mark. But Palmer momentarily
regained the lead at the three
mile point only to have Magill
overtake him once again. f
Palmr took the lead to stay
out in front about a half mile
from the finish. He led Magill by
about three yards as they came
into the football field at the end
of the course.
Creamer passed Magill just as
they crossed the finish line to nip
the Carolina star by mere inches.
Clyde Baker and Sam Lindsay
of William and Mary took fourth
and fifth respectively and the
Terps' Jim Umbarger grabbed
sixth. Carolina's Gordon1 Hamrick

their entire repertoire of. passes.
Art Weiner, Kenny Powell, and
Ed Bilpuch were used on spot
passes and down the middle.
Although the Carolina passing
attack didn't come up to its usual
standard in the Notre Dame
gajpe, the defense was better than
previous games and was not
stressed yesterday.
The lights were turned on late
in the afternoon while the team l
ran through the ground plays.
With Justice still out, Dick Bunt
ing, Billy Hayes, and George
Verchick did most of the ball
carrying. Also working in the
backfield off and on were Wing
back Merl Norcross, Blocking
Backs Eddie Knox and Paul Riz
zo, and Tailback Skeet Hesmer.
The freshman team was used
on defense here too as the Tar
Heels went through the spirited
workout.
The entire practice went .well
yesterday, something unusual for '
a Monday, and the players still
talked about the recent game.
