. ? r - VOLUME LX CHAPEL HILL, If. C. SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1952 NUMBER Kenan Grass Spells 'Dulte As Last Word Of Rivalry By Jody Levey Duke has put one over on Carolina. Bright green blades of grass are" pushing up through the winter-brown field of Kenan stadium, spelling out for all the world to see, the avoided work "Duke." Obviously the work of the Blue Devils, the letters are about five feet in length and a little straggly but get the idea across. "If they had planted the grass ; seed in front of the Old Well, we would have really appreciated it. We could use some there, said Henry Bowers yesterday. The general concensus of opinion on campus is that it is a harmless but rather effective stunt. This isn't the first time that Kenan stadium has been the re- i cipiant of Duke spirit. In the mid dle of the 1950 football season students from Trinity College painted ''Duke" in big blue let ters on the front of the press box. In the fracas after the Carolina Duke game last fall, some ingeni ous Carolina students took the Victory Bell, which is awarded each year to the winner of the contest, and hid it in Chapel Hill. In retaliation Duke students stormed Hogan's Farm in an at tempt to kidnap Carolina's mas cot, Barneses, and by decorating the Bell Tower with blue paint. Everything was evened up when the administration stepped in and the Chapel Hill police returned the bell to Duke. The blue paint still remains on the Tower. Since last fall things have been compar atively quiet. Just when the grass was plant ed can not be determined, how ever it is believed that the seeds were sown shortly after the Vic tory Bell incident. The letters might have passed unnoticed had not a graduate, stu dent K. M. Mclntyre, and his wife happen to pass through the stadium on an afternoon stroll this week. They noticed the design and reported it to The Daily Tar - Heel. The letters are not so easily noticeable from the field, and can be best seen from the South side press box. Horn Here Tod Stay: Ray Anthony Band To For Mid-Winter With an orchestra which has of ten" been compared to that of the f late Glenn Miller for its musical precision, popular band - leader Ray Anthony will appear here on tl weekend of February 22 and ?Z for the annual mid-winter Germans. Like Miller, who gave him his first important job in 1940 when he was only 18, Anthony has an amwer for record disciples who claim that this is a "highly vocal age." Despite the fact that most best selling records feature voices rather than trumpets, hornblow ing is here to stay, Anthony claims. It may be, says' Anthony, that the Perry Comos, Tony Bennets and Sarah Vaughns have won a great deal of. the public's favor at the expense of the bands. But, he points out, that has happened be fore. Twenty years ago the bands had: to: compete with Bing Crosby MSA Meet To Be Held ere Soon (Special to The Daily Tar.
