THE DAILY TAK HKEi 4 4 4 f 4 , 4 t I J. 1 nr By Bill -I THINK THE BOYS will find themselves in the hitting depart ment," Coach Walt Rabb said yesterday before he sent the Carolina . . " A . .... oaseoau, ream tnrougti its afternoon practice. "We've had some pretty tough luck hitting the ball hard, but right at the infielders. If some of the balls had dropped in there, or were erred, we'd have had some big innings." Rabb might well have made an example out of catcher Dick Weiss. Like most of the other players, Wiessis hitting below his average of last; year and must have thought that he had at last gotten hold of one against Wake Forest last week. He lined one of Rudy Williams' pitches out toward left field, but shortstop; Dick Harris, son of the Washington Senators' manager, leaped "high 'in the air for the catch. - -. - ' V ' Carolina has gotten good pitching from its staff, and it couldn't have won without it. The Tar" Heels don't have the power to win 10-9 games and make up for badly pitched ones, like other schools, notably Duke. "Our ball club has to win them the hard way," com mented Rabb. "But I'm not one bit disappointed," he added hastily. "The boys have good spirit and fight right down the line." State Today, Duke Tomorrow The Tar Heels get right in the thick of the Big Four race this week with a game at State today and one with Duke here tomor row. Big Four play should be better than ever this year, with all the schools having strong teams. Before the season began, word from Wake Forest was that the Deacons were in bad shape, but their 4-0 shutout of Carolina proves that they will again be tough. "I predicted right along that Wake Forest would be just as tough this year," Rabb observed. "The play at all the schools will be better becauseall the sophomores that played last year have more experi ence and each of the schools has a good freshman or two." Carolina, whose record is currently 8-4, has seven regulars re turned and should be better .than last year's team which won 16 and lost 10. State, with eight regulars from last year back, Is ex pecting one" of the best teams in recent years, and Duke, with AU Americans Dick Groat and Bill Werber hitting and Joe Lewis pitch ing, will be hard to keep from the conference title. "They're All Hard To Win" "Those Big Four games are all hard to win," said Rabb as he re viewed the prospects of the other three teams. "Weall play hard, but we play clean and I can't think of any coaches I'd rather play .against than Jack Coombs, Vic Sorrell, and Taylor Sanford.ll we can do is play one game at a time and do our best." v Rabb showed how much he wanted that Wake Forest game when he sent in Bill Lore, his most effective pitcher this year,' for relief when Carolina was behind, 4-0. "If we hadn't been getting men on bases we wouldn't have done it' he explained. "If we could have gotten only one hit when we needed it, I believe that rookie (Wil liams) would have broken." Lore was extremely effective against the Deacons in relief, but Williams got stronger as the gamo progressed and the Tar Heels never threatened. Carolina will coMinue the same strategy, starting Lore against the Wolfpack, with either starter Chal Fort or left hander Roger Paschal ready tq relieve. Paschal has worked only a few innings for Carolina this year and will be used primarily, a reliefer. - 5 . Roger Paschal For Relief "We will use -Roger whenever the situation seems to call for a lefthanded reliefer," Rabb said. "He throws slow breaking , stuff that is a nice contrast to Lore and especially Port. He keeps his pitches low and makes them beat the ball into the ground, which is valuable because a reliefer frequently goes in with men on the Incises Baseball has not been tne only sport that has prospered this quarter. The Carolina baseball, tennis, golf, and lacrosse teams have a combined won-losc record of 23-7, with three .of those losses being in lacrosse. And in the Carolina Relays, the track team made a creditable showing with four first places. Quite a marked improve ment over the last two quarters. 1 ; , T , The winnmgest team, of course, Is again tennis Coach John Kfields boys won their 12th straight match yesterday against SSIStWn. are that this year's team will la.t year which won 20-5, including the conference title The num man islptain Del Sylvia, but there are .those je Richmond junior might be defeated in the -f r nament by either freshman Bobby Payne or Herb Browne tfte freshman.

State's strong Wolfpack in Raleigh at 3:30 p.m. Of the five Big'Four losses that Carolina suffered last year, three of them came by the hands of State, and it was these three loss es that cost Carolina the Big Four title. Coach Walt Rabb is looking for the Wolfpack to throw a left handed pitcher against his charg- es today. Rabb said, "I imagine State will use a lefthander against us, because it would bother our lefthanded batters the most, they are. the ones that we look to do the best for us." ."I have an idea," Rabb contin- ued, "they'll - start the freshman John Kendrick or maybe another Tennis Team Meets Dayton Here Today The Carolina tennis team, which defeated State easily : yes terday for its i2th straight win of the season, takes on Dayton University here, today. The Flyers are a newcomer to the Carolina schedule and have never before been met by the Tar Heels in athletics. j The Tar Heels will probably' use their regular singles order of Del Sylviaj Herb Browne, Bobby i Payne, Sam Handel, Ronnie Ker- j dasha in . the six matches. The j pairings for the three doubles' matches will probably be Sylvia-' Handel, Browne-Payne and Izlar Johnny Booker. Reprimanded . V r. ' f The Men's Honor Council last night officially reprimand ed a student for tearing down campaign literature in dormi tories. The only persons authorized to remove such literature from dorm bulletin boards are dorm managers, advisors or" officers." Willful destruction of cam paign posters and literature is a Campus Codeoffense, by act of the Student legislature. In other action the council removed four students from probation. They . had earlier been convicted of a Campus Code violation.

Lewis was the pitcher that caus ed Carolina so much trouble last year. Rabb's choice for the mound duty is still a mystery. He could call on Bill Lore or Chal Port, Lore has run his total of score less innings pitched to 24 4 with two nine-inning shutouts, and a fine 6 relief job against Wake Forest last JJriday.' Port started the Deacon game and' gave up 4 runs in a little more than three innings. -The big righthander ha? had trouble going the route this year. Righthander Joe Pazdan final- Iy hit his stride in his third year on the varsity and has won five of Carolina's eight victories. The Trenton, N. J., senior worked the ! entire game against Pennsylvania last Saturday and ; will not pitch today. ' A victory today would give the Tar Heels a 1-1 record in the Big Four and a 9-4 overall mark. v State beat Michigan State last week and -Wake Forest Saturday, two teams that beat Carolina. .. wo - m i ;:-:-.rr The fraternity of best dressed College Men agrees on jackets and slacks as the one outfit to wear mo!t.tf.fen And the fellows of this town agree 5aTHFsnSf?
