Down In Front
By Biff Roberts
Fixers No Scholars
IT LOOKS AS IF the smart boys never learn. With all the pub
licity and scandal which arose from the basketball briberies which
finally got taken out for an airing last winter, you'd think the
gamblers would hibernate, at least until the corps of Kefauver layed
down that clean-sweeping broom.
But wire reports yesterdav brought nut tVio -font tViuf nlavoro
from the University of Maryland had been offered up to $1,400 to
keep the score down in their game with LSU last weekend. The
Terps were favored by 21 points and the student who approached '
auarterback Jack Scorbath. eentpr Tnm
wanted to keep the point spread 20 points or under. The trio reported
the bribe to co-captain Ed Fullerton. who in turn told athletic di
rector and football coach, Jim Tatum. (Then the Maryland team ;
went oux ana trounced LSU, 34-6, a margin of 28 points.
A point has been brought out that perhaps it was the work of,
as Tatum put it, "just a young punk showing off." But $1,400 is a
good bit of money for a "punk" student to be flipping around so
lightly. There had to be something else behind it. But on the other
hand, it seems rather silly for the smart boys to try anything of
the kind with the heat of the cage fixes still warming the nation.
Crime Shouldn't Pay
REGARDLESS OF WHETHER it is a local setup, envolving this
lone student and perhaps two or three cohorts, or whether it is
another fix envolving a more national setup, the penalty that is
imposed on the offenders can't be too stiff. To. me, one of the most
disgusting newspaper pictures ever printed was one of the fat Mr.
Solazzo, who was an important cog in the basketball fixes, being
taken into court apparently un-perturbed by the fact that he had
help wreck the lives of a dozen boys. I don't think I would get an
argument when I say that most college students feel the financial
pinch right often during the year. The fixers take advantage of
this lack of funds and capitalize. Too often the players, seeing only
the green in front of them and not the black circumstances which
may result from the cutting down of the point spread, take the
bribes, spend the money, and then are forced to battle with their
consciences the rest of their lives.
The three Maryland players did a commendable thing in turning
down the money and reporting the attempted fix. Center Cosgrove
could have benefitted especially, for he was offered $1,000 for him
self. Now that they have the go-between in the case, the police will
evidently round up the rest of the crew, whether it be just students
or a larger ring. And whatever penalty is imposed can't be too
heavy. The penalty the fixers place on boys who are talked into
taking the money for lowering the point spread is far greater than
any jail sentence they may receive.
Here We Go Again
WE'RE OFF AGIN tomorrow for our second game in a row
away from home, leaving with the main hope that this fourth game,
down in Knoxville, Tennessee, can produce better results than our
three other attempts at winning a game this season have. From the
reports of things and looking at the record Tennessee has compiled
so far, it looks as though we're in for another tough time of it.
The Volunteers have a rugged defensive line, one which has al
lowed but three touchdowns in five games. They've lost but one
game, that to Duke, 7-0, earlier in the season at Durham. It doesn't
look as if our running offense, unless we can get the pitchouts work
ing, will get us much ground against their rugged line. But don't
give up hope. We have a chance against the Vols, and that chance
may come on the arm of Marshall Newman. The Tennessee pass de
fense is far from perfect having allowed 26 completions out of 63
tries by the opposition for a completion average of 41.2. If Newman,
who has passed for three of Carolina's four touchdowns, can hit his
receivers, then the 20 points which the smart boys are giving us
won't mean much.
Then, too, there's no reason why our running game can't lend
a hand. The Vols have given up an average of 160 yards a game
on the ground. We seemed to have learned the value of the pitchout
against Notre Dame last weekend and those pitchouts can be of
great value against the Volunteers. Then you have to consider that
the Volunteers have played Chattanooga and Woff ord, and a mediocre
Mississippi State in compiling their offensive and defensive records.
It's not hard to look good against competition like that.
So take off that coon skin hat and put away that hawg rifle.
We might get over the mountains yet.
Harriers Meef Tennessee
In Race Tomorrow Morning
The North Carolina cross
country team, shut out in its
opener against Maryland last
week, will be out to break into
the win column tomorrow against
Tennessee at 10 a.m. in Knox

practice early in the season and
was out of shape when it met
the Terps, but it is getting closer
to top shape every day.
Bobby Barden, freshman sensa
tion who led the harriers last
year, is still out because of after
effects from a light seige of polio.
Barden is expected to begin
working out some time next week,

Jayvees Go After Fourth
Straight Win Of Season
By Melvin Lang
Carolina's undefeated junior varsity makes its home debut
here this afternoon as it goes up against the jayvees from
William and Mary. Kickoff time for the contest is scheduled
for 3:00 p.m. in Kenan Stadium.
With a few exceptions, the same players that started in
the Tar Babies' first three games
will be in the opening lineups
against the Virginians this after
noon. Back George Wallin and
end Will .Alexander, regulars on
the squad up until the Notre
Dame game, have been promoted
to the varsity and will travel to
Knoxville for the Carolina-Tennessee
clash.
Leading the split-T attack for
the Carolina jayvees, who have
now won eight straight contests
over the last two seasons, will
be quarterback Ed Laughlin. Er
nie Liberati, 'a part-time varsity
performer, will back up Laughlin
at the under-center spot. This
combination has the newly in
stalled formation working to per
fection so far this season.
Worrell To Play
Coach Ted Hazelwood will
probably round out his starting
offensive backfield with halfbacks
Glo Worrell and Billy Hawkes,
and Billy Joe Johnson at the full
back post. Worrell has been one
of the most consistent ground
gainers all year, while he and
Hawkes have paced the team
scoring.
Johnson scored the initial
touchdown last Friday night as
Carolina edged Wake Forest, 13-7,
in Burlington. Halfback Stan Por
ginski and fullback Nick Mar-
copulos will be ready to go in,
giving the offensive backfield
plenty of reserve strength.
The offensive line will have
Van Weatherspoon and Bob Lee
at the terminals, and Ralph Bea
ver and Ray Crahen at the
tackles. Starting guards will be
Bill Giles and Tom Maultsby, and
Bill Koman will handle the center
duties. ...........
Weatherspoon is the leading
target for Liberati and Laughlin's
passes. The big 'fellow hauled in
a toss from Liberati to score the
clincher against Wake Forest, and
also scored on a pass against
Virginia.
Rugged Line
The rugged defensive line has
been one of the strong- -points
of the talent-loaded Tar Babies
all season, with such standouts as
ends Norman Lane and Bill King,
tackles Don McCormick and Dick
Frucci. Guards Barry Pruss and
Bill Prothro team to make the
center of the line almost unmove
able for opposing teams. Paul
Reeves and Baxter Mangum have
been outstanding as linebackers
in the previous . games, .and. will
get another chance to show their
talents against William and Mary.
Terry Lawrence and Charlie
Poindexter at the halves, with Al
Long at safety, take care of the
passing attack for the opposing
teams. Long is one of the fastest
players on the squad, while Poin
dexter also handles the point af
ter touchdown chores.
Little Known
Very little is known about the
William and Mary squad, as the
jayvee opposition is not scouted.
On the basis of its all-winning
record, Carolina will enter the
gams, as a definite favorite to
take its fourth victory of the year.
Students and faculty will be ad
mitted to the contest upon presen
tation of their identification cards
at gate two. Admission for the

THE "
Wrestlers Wanted
Wrestling coach Sam Barnes
has called a meeting of all stu
dents interested in trying out
for the team tomorrow morning
from 9:30 - 12:30.
Experience is not necessary,
Barnes said, and both varsity
and freshman aspirants are ask
ed to report.
Winston
Comes From
Behind To Win
Winston scored 12 points in the
last half to come from behind and
defeat Lewis 12-6 in the top four
o'clock contest yesterday after
noon. Lewis scored first on a neatly
executed pass play which sent
Charles Pittard into the end zone
for the touchdown. The extra
point was missed. Both teams
were sparked by their defense for
the. remainder of the half.
Behind, Winston opened fast to
score a quick touchdown, but
missed a chance to go ahead when
their try for the extra point fail
ed. However midway of the last
half Barry Pate slipped through
the Lewis secondary to score the
winning points for Winston.
Using a combination of good
defense and a strong offense,
Manley-1 edged Everett-1, 13-7,
in a game that was close all the
way. The winners staved off a
late rally by Everett and then
went on to score the winning
touchdown with less than three
minutes left in the game.
. The winning tally for Manley
was scored by Carl Gregory and
the extra point was added by
Bill Robinson. Back Bob Randall
scored the only touchdown for
Everett. Center Bill Roberson
scored also for the winners in
the first half.
In the defensive battle of the
day, the Pi Lambs lost to the Chi
Psi-1 team, 1-0. The game was
decided in a sudden death playoff
after it ended 0-0 in regular time.
Both teams missed numerous
oportunities to score during regu
lar time as the defense stiffened
each time the opposition neared
its goal. The Chi. Psi's had a
chance to win the game in regu
lar time but missed their big op
portunity when the alert Pi
Lamb secondary intercepted a
pass.
. With less than a minute to go
in the game a Pi Lamb lineman
blocked a kick to give his team
possession of the ball on the Chi
Psi 18 yard line. But this scoring
chance was stopped when a wild
pass was intercepted.
In the only other 4 o'clock
game scheduled - Alexander - 1
scored a 1-0 forfeit victory over
Graham Dormitory.
general public will be one dollar.
In its previous contests, Caro
lina white-washed Fort Bragg,
7-0, slugged Virginia, 31-14, and
edged past Wake Forest, 13-7.

Football Team Chooses Lackey,
Walser Co-Captains Against Vols
By .Torn Peacock
The North
Carolina football
team elected , Dick Lackey of
Shelby and Benny Walser of
Lexington co-captains for tomor
row's game with Tennessee be
fore finishing practice in Chapel
Hill with a light workout yester
day. Lackey has been a standout all
year as left halfback on the de
fensive squad, and will direct the
team while on defense, but Wal
ser will be in the unique position
of being offensive captain in the
first game in which he starts.
Walser caught a touchdown
pass for one of Carolina's two
scores against Nptre Dame last
week, and has been notably glue
fingered in practice, but has nev
er gotten the starting nod from
coach Snavely before as he is on
the smallish side.
Stellar Play'
The little end's stellar play
both in practice and in the actual
contests couldn't go unnoticed too
' long by either his teammates or
his coaches, so he was voted co
captain by the team as soon as it
was announced that he was a
starter.
Lackey is still remembered by
Tar Heels for his interception of
a Maryland pass last year, and
his subsequent 80-yard runback
that almost resulted in breaking
up the ball game. Lackey has
been one of the most dependable
of the Carolina defensive backs
this year, and has already made
long runbacks after interceptions.
The Tar Heels leave Chapel
Hill today, taking off for Knox
ville shortly after noon on a char
tered plane. They will run
through a brief workout upon
reacing the Volunteers' field.
Tickets Left
Carolina will be a two touch
down underdog when it takes the
field tomorrow at 2:00 for the
game. The Vols started slow this
year, but have improved with
every gane, while Carolina has
yet to sccre a win in three con
tests. Tennessee's only blight is a
7-0 loss to mighty Duke.
Earlier in the week, a 30,000
ticket advance sale had been re
ported from Knoxville, but very
few tickets for the game have
been sold since then, especially
here in Chapel Hill. Plenty tick
ets, are available for the game in
Knoxville, for supporters who
I wish to attend the game but were
too late to purcase one here.
The Tar Heels' chances for an
upset tomorrow will rest largely
on the . ability of the offensive
unit to move the ball on a sus
tained drive. The four touch
downs that Carolina has scored
this year all came on breaks,
three on passes set up by fum
bles, and the fourth was set up by
a 70 yard off-tackle play.
The Carolina offense has im
proved steadily with each game,
but Tennessee has V one of the
leading defenses in Vhe country.
The Vol defense held 4 high scor
ing Duke team to 7 points, blank-

Dean Weigle said.
Even Webster's New Interna
tional Dictionary incorrectly
uses the King James Version to
illustrate that allege means "as
sert . without proof," according
to Dean Weigle. The Revised
Standard Version, going back to
the early Greek texts, clears up
the problem by substituting
"proving" for "alleging."
"The Revised Standard Ver
sion is not a literary curiosity.
It is the committee's hope that
it will be used for worship in
churches everywhere," Dean
Weigle said.
One of the major points in
the Protestant faith is that the
word should be plain and sim
ple. The new version states the
record of Christ's life and work
far more truly and clearly than
the King James Version and for
that reason, undergirds the
Christian faith far better."
Dean Weigle has chaired, the
committee for the last 17 years.
He served as dean of the Yale
Divinity School frob 1928 to
1949.
