SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1951 PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TAR HEEL 17 ' J ' '' Jy : km Mwee f. Strictly -Ad Lib By Zone Robbins Pop Goes The Bubble CAROLINA'S VICTORY BUBBLE BURST with a big bang yes terday at Kenan Stadium as a bristling band of Georgia Bulldogs made the most of Tar Heel miscues to defeat Carolina for thefirst time since the ill-fated Sugar Bowl encounter pf 1947. The Bulldogs parlayed two recovered fumbles,, one pass inter ception and a razzle-dazzle passing attack into a 28-16 victory as the Tar Heel pass defense sprung a leak in the second half after near-airtight first half play. ' The Tar Heels, obviously pointing for Texas, resembled the Sal vation Armyat times as they tossed away touchdown opportunities like your rich Uncle Amos. ' ' ' -. . - ' - "" - Driving for the pay station as the third ueriod ended, the Tar Heels hitched up their belts arid went as far as the Georgia four-yard-line in the opening minutes of the second stanza before Billy Williams fumbled on the 12. The "Henderson hotshot recovered his own "bobble and Dexter Poss recovered Williams but, with fourth down coming up, a touchdown gamble seemed too risky and Abie (Twinkletoes) Williams was called- in to try a field goal. The shot vwas low andTwide of the mark as Carolina's first touchdown threat went out the window. - The Best Offense LATER IN THE SECOND PERIOD, the Tar. Heels were stopped inches short of a first down on the" Georgia 13 when a drive' petered out. Two plays later the Tar Heels got the ball on the Georgia 22 when Bill Kuhn pulled in a Lauren Hargrove fumble. Still the of fensive punch was missing. Tailback Frank Wissman completed two of four passes in the series but the ball ended up on the Georgia 22 when the Tar Heels ran out. of downs. - The best, offensje was a good defense as far as Carolina was .con cerned in the topsy-turvy first half. The only score of the first 30 minutes came when George Norris, Jack Maultsby and Lou Darnell dumped Georgia Quarterback Zeke Bratkowski in his own end zone before he could get away his pass. Things were even worse in the final. half as Carolina was plagued by an -acute case of fumble-itis. Adding to. the Tar Heel dilemna, some half dozen players were carried from the field in the third and four periods. Most of the injuries were minor but the severe ankle sprain suffered by Safetyman Bud Carson was a tough blow to the Tar Heels. After the game, Georgia Coach Wally Butts' said, "We were pretty" sure we'd win after Carson left the game." The Bulldog punters had been kicking away from -the scintillating safetyman throughout the game and, asa consequence, were losing yardage on their punts. Butts gave his team the : green light after Carson was carried from the field in the latter stages of the second quarter. When the Bulldogs came back .' on the field in the third period they went into the air and completely baffled the Tar Heel defenders. Butts said-he was afraid to pass too often with Carson in the game, and the statistics bear him out. . The Georgians: passed six times and completed oniy one in the first half and that completion came after Carson had' turned, over his defensive duties to Dick Lackey. In the second half, however, it (See STRICTLY AD LIB, Page 5; Bulldogs-Take 7-2, Lead Info Fourth Period (Continued from Page 1). kicked the extra point with 13:26 left in the period. Carolina's last touchdown was a useless thing," what with the Bulldogs .'holding a. 28-9 lead with less than two minutes left in the game. After an exchange of punts the Bulldogs took over on their own 23 and were pushed back to their own 11. Bratowski punted out to the Carolina 47 and Williams made a nice return to the Georgia 17. In the first play Williams faded arid hit Bob Gantt who was on the goal line and fell over for the score. Abie Williams kicked the extra point with 1 : 19 left in the game. Frank Wissman, who justified Snavely's opinion that he was the most important ball player on the team, tried to carry the Tar Heels back into the game but he fell short. With Carolina trailing, 21-9, Wissman put on, an amazing passing exhibition, completing four straight for three first downs before being, taken out for ah in jury. ,He hit Newton for 11 yards, Hesmer for no gain, Weiss for 15 yards, and Newton again for 11 yards, before being removed. Wil liams replaced him and kept the team rolling by hitting Newton with a button hook pass for a 'first down on the Georgia 32, and then hit Bob White for two yards on a screen pass. But now the Georgia defense was set and one too many passes was tossed. Fred Bilyeu of the Bulldogs caught up a Williams line and raced .80 yards for a pass on the 20 near the left side score. Mrvos kicked the extra point with 7:18 left in the fourth period to end the Bulldog scor ing. - The first Georgia touchdown RENT YOUR DIAPERS from BABY DIAPER SERVICE P. O.

Harry Babcock took a Bratowski pass to the 34 and Morocco took an other to the, 19. Morocco skirted right end to the 14. Then , Bratowski missed with a pass and Bilyeu- caught the Carolina defense waiting for another pass and went up the center to the-7. Carolina seemed saved when a clipping, penalty put the Bulldogs back to the 22, but Bratowski passed on fourth down to DeCarlo on the 15 and the big end went over. Carolina completely dominated the first half play, gaining 29 yards passing arid 112 yards rush ing. Most of the rushing yardage was "contributed by Dick Weiss, who played a fine game at full backs The big senior tended the days work with 122 yards gained on 22 carried, for an average of 5.2 yards. . But all the Tar Heels could get out of the first half was a safety, and a 2-0 half time lead. The Carolina line played a mar vellous game- in the first half, holding Georgia to 50 yards pass ing and 29 yards running. Lou Darnell and George Nor ris, leading the line all day, and Jack Maultsby caught Mai Cook trying to pass from the Georgia 20 and chased him back to the end zone and made the tackle for a safety. The Tar Heels blew three fine chances to score inthe second quarter. One time Carolina had a first down on the 12 yard line and. had the ball on the 5 on third down. Billy Williams tum bled a low snap from center back to the 11 and Abie Williams miss ed on a field goal frorruthe 17. Later in the quarter Weiss ran 50 yards down to the Georgia 22, but the Tar Heels missed a first down on the 14. Lauren Har grove gave Carolina another chance soon after by fumbling on the 21, but Wissman missed on three passes to lose the chance. The Carolina pass defense was badly handicapped in the second half by the loss of Bud Carson. Carson was taken out of the game with a hurt left leg in the first half and missed the entire second.

Matter of fact, it's darn seldom that we promote a book in that-price class' at all. - But there is a new book, "Life in America." edited by Marshall B. Davidson, which is due out on October 15th, which we think you should know about. It's. the sort of thing that only a great publisher working with a great museum (The Metro politan Museum of Art) could have produced. Over 1,200 pictures and 250,000 words are devoted to tracing the de velopment, over the past 500 years, of our complex American society. And the whole picture sings with life. ' We have an advance copy we think you should look over. If you agree that it's the sort of book you'll want sooner or later, we hope you'll let us get your order in before publica tion, at the pre-publication; price; of $17.50, rather than wait and pay $20.00; later. We feel that "this book is so important that, if money is what's standing ! in your way, we'll arrange for divided payments to help you get the book and the saving. u 11 th :T:H-E.;:iJ.N 205 E.
