Vic Seixas Among Top Davis Cuppers
After Reaching Finals In Nationals
By Buddy Norlhari
While most - of Carolina's stu
dents were sunning themselves
up and down the Atlantic coast,
climbing among the mountains
or just loafing this summer, there
were a few less fort unates who,
for various reasons, found them
selves among the books. And as
always, the student's best friend
was on hand to make things as
comfortable as possible. That, of
course, would be the Intramural
Department, headed by - - Walt
Rabb and ably executed by Bill
Kucyk.
The Mural program for the
summer included softball, tennis,
golf, bait casting, and a little
mixed Softball and square danc
ing thrown in on the side. In
spite of occasional blast furnace
temperatures, the program re
ceived a great deal of support,
and at , times the competition
would have rivaled that of the
regular sessions. :
.The Waugus, a collection of
Summer talent, won the first ses
sion softball title by defeating
the Mountaineers, 15-7. The Wau
gus scored , at least once in every
inning, which along with Joe
Romano's double with bases load
ed and Bob Reynolds' homer with
bases loaded proved too much for
the Hillbillies.
Mountaineers Come Through
The MoUntaine e'r s came
through in the second session
play, however, and took the cam
pus championship, defeating the
combination team of Sig Chi
Zeter,, 11-2. Hillbilly Pitcher Sam
Mitchell gave up only two hits
in. the final, and held the Phi
Kaps hitless in the semifinal
game.
This Fall,' the. Mural program
will include tag football, volley
ball and wrestling as point sys
tem sports in addition to tennis,
horseshoes, fencing, badminton
and dance clubs and golf. Intra
mural track has been moved up
to the 'Fall quarter in an effort
to spot promising material for
the varsity track squad..
Mixd sports including the co
eds and men students and co
recreational programs have met
with considerable success in the
past, and if interest is 'sustained
Vic Seixas, the old Carolina
flash, threatened back in 1948 to
become a weekend player iif he
didn't "hit his peak" within two ! 1
years, but after making the Da-
vis Cup team and playing in the
National tennis finals he should;
have nothing to worry about. !
Seixas, the Southern Confer
ence singles '.. champion in 1948,
provided the biggest surprise of
the Nationals three weeks ago by
whipping the highly -rated trio of
Australians, Ken McGregor, Her
bie Flam, and Dick Savit$. The
rjace was too much for Vic in the
finals, however, and he was beat
en straight sets by Frank Sedge
man of Australia. -
Seixas had been considered one
of the country's most promising
youngsters before the tournament
but he, had never been ranked
higher than- eighth nationally. His

Four Sophomores May Star
for Tar Heels On Saturday

Four sophomores, three of them
backs, are members of the num-
early September edition.
Tailback Billy ' Williams, full
back Bob White, Blockingback
Van Weatherspoon and Guard
Ken Yarborough are" the rookies
tentatively set on the first (of
fensive) team. All were stars on
North Carolina's 0 crack 19 5 0
freshman club which won the
State co-championship.
Fdur seniors and three juniors,
all but one of them lettermen,
round out the combination which
fell somewhat short of expecta
tions in the first scrimmages of
pre-season practice.
This group consists of ends
Bill O'Brien and Benny Walser,
tackles Dalton Ruff in and Tom
Higgins, "Guard Don McCormick,
Center Andy Miketa and Wing
back Bob. (Goo Goo) Gantt.
Bruises kept Gantt on the side
lines during most of the first
ber one Carolina football team,4week but he is one of the team's
offensive wheelhorses. and is ex
pected to have a banner year.
Williams, . 165 - pounder from
Henderson, has been impressive
with his poise and running skill,
but Coach Carl Snavely and his
aides are still concerned over
the tailback position.- There are
several promising candidates, in
cluding junior Ernie Liberati,
sophomore Louis Britt and fresh
man Larry Parker, but the pass
ing has not been up to par.
victory over Flam, ranked- sec
ond by the Lawn Tennis Associa
tion, indicates that he has arrived
and can be considered one of this
country's first-line Davis Cup
pers. .V " ' K :.
Earlier in the summer Seixas
teamed with .Flam in one of the
Davis- Cup doubles matches
against Japan and won easily, as
was expected r The older mem
bers of the team were held out of
this " first round match and the
younger members were given a
chance to gain experience, -j
Flam knocked off Seixas in the
Southwest Pacific r championships
two weeks after his loss in the
Nationals, but Vic has now es
tablished himself as a star.
Seixas, -a handsome six-footer
from Philadelphia, gained quite
a name - in Southern collegiate
circles during' his four ! years at
Carolina, captaining- the 1 team
during his 'last two years, 1948
and 1949 He was defeated in the
conference singles finals" in 1949
by his arch-rivai Fred Kbvaleski
of William and Mary, but teamed
with Clark Taylor to take the
doubles title- , :

share of laurels.
