TUESDAY. MAY 16, 1950 THE DAILY TAR HEEC PAGE THREE Strictly Ad Lib srerru. ame By Zant Robbins McG inn H wis No-Hit a Portrait Of A Champion MARVIE WARD CLOSED OUT a highly-successful collegiate Hfinc career m fitting stylo as dusk settled over the Old Town 0)ntry Club course last Saturday afternoon in Winston-Salem Th- pint-sized Tarboro ate took three puts in what would ordi narily be undramatic fashion on the 18th green of the Old Town r.,urso, but under the prevailing circumstances, the gallery that jammed its way around the coarsesome for the full 36 holes -was held tense as the Carolina sharpshooter rolled two putts past the pin before finally dropping the third for a par five and a long awaited conference victory over Wake Forest's fabulous Arnold f aimer. Consulted after it was all over, the sandy-haired parrbuster ymiled pleasantly, saying "I probably could have birdied the hole, h,,t when I got that close I decided to settle for a par and take r chances." Palmer, dethroned after two years as loop champion, was one ,,f the first to rush ip to the victor, throw his arms around him Mid shout, "Congratulations, Ilarvie. You played a great game." And Ward's game was just that great! The Carolina ace waged a nip-and-tuck battle with Palmer over the first 18 holes, finish inn in a deadlock with him as both posted twin G9's at the halfway mark in the one-day tournament. The Baptist HoTlow hotshot push ed ahead of Ward during the early part of the final round, lead in.; him by as much as three strokes at one point. All that didn't bother the Tar Heel shotmaker, however, as F he fought back to overcome Palmer's lead on the 14th hole, and then moved out to win on the final hole. The victory is just one more and an important one at that in a Inng string of impressive titles that the 25-year-old has to his credit. The Southern Conference will be mothballed with other laurels such as the North-South Amateur and NCAA champion ships, to mention only two of the many titles that Ward holds. And. as has been predicted many times before, you can look for Ward to become one of the nation's top golfers after graduation whether he decides to go pro or keep playing for trophies and blue ribbons. Upset Of The Year WHILE WARD WAS BASKING m his new-won glory, another Tar Heel great was bouncing a consolation prize in his lap after be aming the victim of one of the mos vicious upsets in recent South ern Conference tennis history. That unhappy individual was Caro- itrul nil lUpittHl Viui rw i(t)iui, whip i ickKA juob uvcn v uiavj ui.uiv.w the conference tennis finals by the driving smashes and rapid volleys of slim Bo Roddey, Davidson College ace. Roddey, who merely played the greatest tennis of his career in ousting second-seeded Howie Atwater, William and Mary ace, in the semifinals, before coming back to blast the favored Taylor in Saturday's finals, won the hearts of the entire gallery that flocked to his home court to see the Charlotte senior win in straight sets. The Davidson ace, seeded number three in pre-tourney ratings, laughed in the dopesheet's face in every outing, blasting Atwater, second-seeded, '6-0, 6-1, 6-0 in near-record time on Friday to pro vide the first major shock of the net circus. Then, in his finals match with Taylor, the skinny swinger seem ed to grow stronger as time went by as he dropped four games in the opening set, three in the second, and lost only two in the wind ep. Taylor had defeated ftoddcy, 6-4, 5-7, G-2, in regular season play- . Bascballers Looking Good r&pnr.TMA RASEBALL COACHES BUNN Hearn and Walt Rabb either went out and bought a dozen bottles of the large econ omy si'e Hadacol for their diamond proteges or finally convinced fie Tar Heels that they were capable of licking their Big Four opponents. .Whatever the two baseball geniuses did, it certainly worked miracles on the Carolina nine who, up until yesterday s imo with last-place Dook, had won four out of their last five Big Four games, losing only to Wake Forest's pacesetters. It seemed that the biggest thing wrong with the Tar Heels dur ing the early part of the year was the fact that they were down in the dumps because they thought they were incapable of competing successfully with some of the higmy-puDiicizea m.u i..Bijr- id ized opponents on their schedule. . "Big Steam" Hearn and Habb, his chief aide, soon instilled a little fight in the boys, however, assuring tnem mat poes a lot further than free meals when it comes down to playing uinning college ball, and the Tar Heels promptly responded by kicking some of the loop leaders at most inopportune times Seems the Carlina brain-trust was rigm, cuu 7,Mv paying off in basehits and victories these days-and looking mighty nappy in doing so. Tar Heels Win Fifth Straight By Beating Blue Devils, 5-0 By Lew Chapman COMBS FIELD, DURHAM, May 15 Carolina's Bill McGinn be came the man of the hour here today following his amazing pitch ing exhibition against the'Blue Devils of Duke in which he set the Devils down with nary a run nor a hit as the Tar Heels notched an easy 5-0 victory for their fifth straight conference win. McGinn's feat was the first no-hitter twirled by a Carolina Hurl er sinep another left-hsnder. Vin- "; '"" "'" "'r '' '''''' nie DiLorenzo, turned the trick back in 1947. DiLorenzo had pitched nine frames of hitless ball but since he was tagged, in extra innings, the accomplish ment did not go into the ledgers as a complete no-hitter. The crowd that viewed the masterpiece began to realize the effect around the seventh inning and from then on every Blue Devil out was cheered by both Duke and Carolina fans alike. After Bill had breezed a third strike past Duke's Brandon Davis for the final out in the ninth, his teamates joyfully carried him from the field. , Cold figures can easily support the magnificent performance. Lefty Bill only walked two while he struck out 12, eight of them coming in the first four stanzas. He passed both men in the first and from then on had pin-point control as he never reached a three ball count on the remaining 26 batters he faced. After Duke's John Carroll had reached base in the second on John Senter's error, the Tar Heel southpaw set down no less than 24 men in or der. While McGinn was on his way to Carolina History, team-mate Will Hobbs sewed up the game for the Tar Heels with two time ly hits. In both the first and fifth innings, the big Carolina first sacker came up with men on sec ond and third and proceeded to slam two line singles that drove in four runs, more than enough padding for McGinn to work with. State Is Host For Big Four s Athletic Day State College will be host to f Wake Forest, Duke, and North Carolina in the 5th annual Big Four Sports Day this Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock in Raleigh.
