SUNDAY, FEB U UAH UC, 1050 THE DAILY .TAB HEEL. PAGE THREE Tar Trackmen Tit I e even OOf ame Heel Taae El Ind m Another Picture V" By Buddy Vaden m" -th'sr- T'A;;;"jf H';rj;;;'Ar'',-- Full Of Surprises . They nASKETRALL COACH TOM SCOTT is probably just as sur prised as the- rest of the Southern Conference that his basketball team finished the season with a blast of power that put them way up in fifth place in the Conference and easily assured them a spot in the Conference tournament at Durham next weekend. Scott, v.ho h pretty much of an optomist, couldn't see many bright spots for the coming winter way back in late November. But look what's happened. The Tar Heels started oft on the light foot by defeating two minor league dubs, Elon and Richmond, then suffered three successive losses to VPI, Elon (Of all things), 'and George Washington. From that point until the trip to Miami things went on in a hit or miss fashion, But with the double win over Miami the Tar Heels perked r up tnd won seven out of their next eight games. As a matter of fact, they lost only four games after their trip to Florida. (Florida Chamber of Commerce take note what great powered did that State have on Tom Scott's boys? ) . Two of those losses were to you-know-who, one to Wake Forest, and another to George Washington. What happened to the Tar Heels after the Christmas holidays? They surely weren't getting the breaks. First one player and then .mother got hurt or sick. Of the top eight players, only Dick Pat terson and Bill White managed to stay healthy. Made Some Changes THE BIG CHANGE seemed to be caused'by the return of Charlie Thorne, the superb work of sub Patterson, and the rapid improve ment of Guard Howard Deasy. Previously, it had been Nemo Near- inan who kept the Tar Heels on their feet. Nearman set the single game high scoring record for the year at 25 points against Richmond, iind kept on pouring points through the hoop until he became the Conference's leading scorer. Today he is still near the top in Con ference scoring and that's in a conference with All-America can didates Dick Dickey, Sammy Ranzino, Chet Giermak, and Jim Slaughter. But now they're in the tournament with ease and after the Loop's basketball committee meeting in Durham this morning they will start planning tourney strategy. Of the seven other teams in the event the Tar Heels have defeated all but George Washington r.nd N. C. State. But those two teams were given a few worried moments when they played the Tar Heels in Chapel Hill. When the Colonials appeared here in early December they won the ball game in the last three minutes, after trailing most of the way. The Tar Heels were tied up at the 17 minute mark, only to let the Colonials score ten points in the final minutes. As for the' State-Carolina game here State was lucky to have won that one. Carolina led until the fading minutes and State barely won the game. 61-57, with a last minute burst of power. The Wolfpack has never gotten off light in tournament games with the Tar Heels. For the past two years the Tar Heels have run up against State in the semi-finals and both times the Wolfpack squeezed by on the skin of their Ranzino and Company. West Raleigh fans will laugh, but these Tar Heels have a chance of winning the tournament this year. They're always hot in Dur ham and with a full staff on hand for the event this, year, they could pull the upset of the decade. It would be a big job, but after all, who thought Truman was going to win? Some Track And Football TRACK DEPARTMENT: There is more and more talk going around that the Indoor Games will be moved to Raleigh next year. The Colesium would make an excellent home for the Indoor Games as far as the building itself is concerned. There are facilities for three times as many spectators as can be accomodated in Chapel Hill. The floor itself would allow more room for the various events. However, can State College adequately supply faciities for the (JOO-odd athletes who annually participate in the affair as economi cally, and as effectively as they are taken care of in Chapel Hill? Another point: For a long time Chapel-Hill has been the track e enter of the Southern Conference. Maryland is the only school in the loop that has seriously threatened the Tar Heel domination. It's always nice to have the Conference championships at the home of the school that has performed best in that sport. Football news: With only -three more days of winter grid drills left on the sports calendar, more people are beginning to wonder if Carl Snavely is going to stick with his "Y" formation. At the start it looked like a great idea, but now they're beginnig to see some of its weaknesses. The Y has more deception than the single wing and for plays up the middle it's fine, but when they start trying to go around the ends they run into trouble. That's what the Carolina Coaches' Club has found in recent weeks. And it was evident in yesterday's lengthy scrimmage. Coaches Roll Call at yesterday's session . 12 coaches were on hand. Among them Box Cox, Ted Hazelwood, Hey wood Fowle, Russ Murphey, George Radman, Jim Camp, Walt Pupa, Sid Varney, Bob Mitten, Bill Flamisch, Ray Straight, and Snavely. Straight has been in Chapel Hill for a few days talking with the hoys. A graduate of Davis and Elkins, Straight was a big wheel in his day. A. collegiate tackle and center, he went to Marshall Col lege in West Virginia and has been there 13 years. His status in Chapel Hill is at the present a big question mark? Looking good department: Ernest Liberati, Bud Carson, C. C. White, Billy O'Brien, and Joe Dougherty all looked good in yes terday's drills. For a fullback Carson is mighty small and mighty fast and hard-driving for his 160-pounds. Albans Scores Three Firsts As Locals Score 60 Points By Frank Allston, Jr. Piling up a big point margin in the dashes and hurdles, Carolina's powerful team retained its 1949 title in the Southern Conference Indoor Games herd last night as the Tar Heels outscored second place Maryland, 60-33 V2.
