The University changed its pol
icy regarding' the student segre
gation in Kenan Stadium because
of a suggestion made by Negro
students last week, it was learn
d yesterday.
J. Kenneth Lee, law student
from Greensboro, stated last Sat
urday, 1 "It is not our desire to
stir up J any trouble, but no one
has consulted us in this matter.
There ; is no disagreement that
couldn't be worked out in a
friendly; manner if the administra-j
tion would merely talk with us.
A ' conference was held early
last week between University of
ficials and Negro students. As a
result of the meeting, the admin
istration's policy was switched.
A letter explaining the Univer
sity's position was given to the
. students ; when they received the
passbooks Friday afternoon, from
the University. Three weeks ago,
.one of the students, James Walk
er, was given free tickets to. Sec
tion K but-was denied a passbook
for the games. : -
' The text of the letter follows:
"You know from our conversa-
ball war between the states. ;
The war between the states,
football war, assumed the same
aspect as the original war be
tween the states. The South lost
again.
With, the South Carolinians sit
ting on the north side of the sta
dium and the sun shining in their
eyes, they were forced to don the
UNC cardboard sun shields,
thereby losing their identity but
not their spirit. '
The Gamecock fans received
the card stunts at half-time with
great admiration. The loudest
cheer from the north side came
when the Confederate flag was
presented. , ' ,.

wise to observe, f or the present,
the custom of segregation at
"North Carolina intercollegiate ath

are student dining halls, dormitor-

The particular stunt was shown
twice for the benefit of the Col
lier's photographer who was here
to get pictures to use in connec
tion with the feature upcoming
on the Confederate flag fad.
When the stunt was presented
for the second time, the second
half of the ball game was just be
ginning. Parker took the kickoff
and showing a spark of the fam
ous "Choo-Choo' carried the ball
back to about the Gamecocks' 40-yard-line,
the students in the card
section forgot about the stunts.
Pandemonium broke loose. The
cards began to sail through the
air; the pleading of "Oky-Doke"
Green, card stunt emcee, failed
to stop the sailing of the cards.
Also enjoyed during the haif-
J time ceremonies were the major
ettes of the South Carolina Band.
The Tar Heel fans usually do not
get a chance to see the graceful
acrobatics of majorettes such as
the ones who performed for the
USC Band" yesterday.
All in all, Carolina came out
on the top side of the score with
mixed feeling among the fans.

"Your defense had Steve stop
ped cold all the way," said Rex
Enright, South Carolina's liead
coach, in the field house after
the game.
He was referring to Steve Wad
iak, : the Gamecock back standout
who couldn't break away all af
ternoon. "We tried to set up his
plays, but he still couldn't get
loose," Enright added. 1
. The South Carolina coach heap
ed praise oh the play -of. the Tar
Heels but singled out no individ
ual. "They blocked hard, ran hard,
and outplayed us all the way.
North Carolina had a very fine
football team, but the difference
was up front in the line. They ran
through us everywhere, inside,
around the ends, and through the
air," he commented.
Enright thought the Gamecocks
had a chance to stop the rugged
Carolina line but when the sec
ond half play started, he knew
the turning point had come.
Gamecocks singled out for good
play by their coach were ends
George Norris and"1- Bob JECahle.
Enright thought the Tar Heels
played an all around game, say
ing, "You couldn't name an out
standing player. Eleven men beat
us, not one."
The players, in the dressing
room after the game, thought yes
terday's contest was the best they
had played this season. They were
disappointed at the loss but not
dejected over the score.

viously, started the game and
stayed in , as the team's tailback
until the fourth quarter when he
was relieved by Williams and
LFrank Wissman.
Parker tossed an 11-yard pass
to End Bill Baker for one touch
down and set up another with a
beautiful 61-yard kickoff return.
He passed only six times, complet-.
ing four. His rushing average
shows he carried nine times for
six yards, but one of those "car
ries" was a 17-yard loss inflicted
while trying to pass. Otherwise
he would-have a record of 23
yards on eight carries. -
Williams' play was almost sole
ly in the second half, but he
showed a great improvement
while he was in. He went 102
yards on 11 carries, including one
beautiful 39-yard run for a score.
Williams seemed to be running
faster, and gave indications that
he had mastered the cutback and
the trick of staying with his in
terference. Steve, Th' Cadillac, Wadiak, was
well bottled up by the stout Caro
lina defense. Wadiak carried 11
times for 22 yards. The South
Carolina backs were fast and clev
er runners, but they were not
given sufficient interference, and
threatened only a few times. "
Carolina had the same trouble
with cashing in on first half scor
ing chances, but their play on the
whole was improved, especially
on offense. The line play of Tom
Higgins was especially good.
The Tar Heels made 19 first
I downs to 7 for the Gamecocks
and gained a fine total of 235
yards rushing and 112 yards pass
ing, while the Gamecocks could
get only 92 yards on the ground
and 99 yards in the air.
Carolina went all the way to
the three yard line at the opening
of the game, but could hot score
when on fourth down Parker
could not find a pass receiver.
A few; minutes later they got
down to the 15, but Wissman was
unable to complete a pass in three
attempts.
Steve Wadiak set up the Tar
Heels first score by fumbling the
ball on his own 13 and Bud Wal
lace recovered for Carolina. Par
ker went one yard over right
tackle, Wiess got another yard on
a spinner over the middle, and
