SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1S51 THE DAILY TAR HEEL PAGE FOUR WW f u Sc 1 dps Mr seel par By Bill Peacock - Notes from the Ryder Cup Matches T'WU ATVATTRTr' A"MC! "WWT'P'PUVri TTTTT. "RritisVi 914-2 M1 in the 7lvker"uprmat Friday and Sunday, but the score doesn't indicate the difficulties under which the Americans won or the. closeness of the match. Two of our competitors, Ben Hogan and Skip Alexander, are lucky to be alive today, and another, Lloyd Mangrum, had no busi ness playing with a case of influenza which kept his temperature .at 102 degrees. Everyone knows the story of the plucky Hogan, who was nearly killed two years ago in an automobile accident and was told he might not ever be able to walk. Last year he staged a great comeback and won the National Open. Sunday, Ben, who still walks J with a perceptible limp, beat Charles Ward, 3 and 2, in a close one. The case of Alexander is less familiar to the average sports fan. Alexander, a native of North Carolina and captain of the champion ship golf team at Duke in 1940-1, was badly burned in an airplane crash which killed the other occupants a year ago. At the time he had earned enough points in tournaments to qualify for the biennial Ryder Cup matches, but it was thought unlikely he would be able to do much when the play, rolled, around. ''And quite i unlikely that he would rout John Panton, 8 and 7. " v -' Alexander's Personal Victory BUT THERE HE WAS Sunday and at any other time this come back would have been fabulous, but Hogan has the corner on come backs this year. Skip was obviously tired at the end of his match and his right hand must have been giving him trouble, although he did not complain. That hand is still badly scarred and will re ceive more surgery soon at Duke Hospital. Skip had a doctor following him in his party. The doctor was Cary Middlecoff, a dentist and former National Open champ. Mid dlecoff, like all the people following Alexander and Panton, mental ly shot every shot with Skip and gave encouragement to him. Middlecoff acted as a personal squire and took leave of Alexander at one time to get him a soft drink. When members of the two teams assembled in front of the club house on the beautiful putting green for the presentation of the cup, Alexander got the biggest hand as he took his. seat. The big, be spectacled fellow ginned as his fellow Tar Heels payed homage to , -him. . . Mangrum,. usually compared to a dapper river1 boat gambler because of his black mustache .and jaunty walk, was anything but dapper Sunday. He dragged around the course in an old tan sweater and a white cap that had seen better days. A friend carried a camp stool that he used at every opportunity and during the , afternoon, Mangrum put much of weight on his friend as he walked around. Several times, he stopped and took some medicine. . But his shots were too straight and accurate for his younger and more powerful opponent," Harry Weetman, who went down to defeat, 6 and 5. Max arid the Drunk 1 ONE OF THE MOST popular members of the British team was big, broad-shouldered Max Faulkner, the British PGA champ, who pushed Sam Snead hard, before losing 4 and 3. On the 14th hole in the afternoon he pitched within seven feet of the pin, while Snead'j shot fell about ten .feet further away, and it appeared that Faulkner might pick up a hole.-But Snead; whose putting was brilliant, rapped in the putt. Faulkner, obviously annoyed, started to line up his putt when a fan, who had spent-the afternoon in the club house lounge, gave out with a good, loud, Shhh! ; ' , , p Faulkner looked up from his work and stared at the offender. He said something, completed his survey, and sank the putt Ed (Porky) Oliver, the only member f the U. S. team to lose, took his defeat rather lightly. Once he took a putt, saw that it would miss, and yelled, "Don't worry, the cup's as big as a wash tub."

Cole intercepted a" State pass at midfield and dribbled to within 20 yards of the goal before sh.t ing. Wagner attempted a back wards kick away from the Wolf -pack goal, but flubbed the kick and the ball bounced past Goalie Fiore. The score came at 10: 35. in the third quarter and broke up the scoreless tie in the ragged game. - - The victory was "the fourth straight of the year for Coach Ted Bondi's team and gives them a perfect record. The Tar Heels took 37 shots, all but 18 of them being wide of the goal. Inside Left Walter Hooper made one of the most out standing plays of the game in the third quarter when he took the ball on his own 15 and dribbled down the sideline to the 20 before trying a pass to Don Yates in the clear. The pass to Yates was blocked. Hopper was hit in the mouth by a kicked ball shortly after and was nearly knocked out. The defensive play of Cole and Fullback Ronald Younts'was out standing.

The Cavaliers have a five and one record this season, but their power wasn't realized until two weeks ago when they beat Duke University, 30-7.
