The Tar Heels will hold a brief workout tomorrow after noon at Texas Memorial Sta dium prior to Saturday's North Carolina-Texas clash, one of the national highlights of the foot ball weekend. f- against Carolina. Sonny So well, junior guard, and Charles Gen th ner, 215 pound tackle, are not ex pected to play Saturday. One important change in the Carolina lineup was the switch of Freshman Larry Parker to safety in place of Bud Carson, whose sprained left ankle has not responded to treatment. Carsorr may. t be available for limited ac tion.' Townsend was the high scorer in the Southwest Conference last year ana leads tne Texas run ning attack. Coach-Ed Price of the Longhorns will do everything possible to get Townsend in shape to play, as he will be sorely missed. George Foti, freshman blocking back, will definately be out for the contest, but Fullback Bob White is expected to be dressed and ready. These are the only Tar, Heel injuries. Reports from Texas - say that the Longhorns, seventh team in the nation, are expecting a tough game tomorrow. Texas Coach Eck Curtis who scouted both of the .Tar Heel's games this season has warned his charges to be on the lookout for a very strong line, and excellent punt return ing.. Curtis' report said that Carolina was especially good on downfield blocking on punt re turns. Injuries are forcing the Long horns to use several linemen as sixty minute ball players tomor row, the first time in many years that Texas will not be using a complete two-platoon system. The Longhorns will be playing under a new head coach, and using a new offense. This is Ed Price's first year as the Texas coach, and he brought the split-T formation with him. T. Jones, more than capable at both passing and run ning, will do the quarterbacking for the Steers. ' The Tar Heels will probably start Frank Wissman, Dick Weiss, Skeet Hesmer, and Bob Gantt to morrow. Coach Snavely switched freshman star Larry Parker from defense to offense this week, and he will probably see action from tailback, as will triple threat sophomore Billy Williams. "Tomorrow's contest will be the rubber game of a three game series, Carolina whipping Texag here 34-7, in 1948 and the Tar Hels bowing to the Longhorns 34-0 at Austin m 1947. s-C . . . 9 '9 lx o X1 ' V , i. ts ' -.I s ' - -.i s 4 '.
