Coral Against aim, Hi Vi'i V a an f. ..Jk 'i f n v J -V 4 V: 4 ft 4 f i The sorcalled experts have been saying that Carolina could not run with a running team, but last Saturday night in Woollen Gym Frank McGuire's Tar Heels abandoned their possession-type style of play and all but ran Wake Forest off the court to a 95-78 tune. The locals were hot as firecrackers. Both teams took the same number of shots, 67, But Carolina hit on 37 of theirs for a 55 aver age; while Wake Forest dumped 28 of their shots for a 41 average, a very healthy mark, but not quite enough for the occasion. In the first half Carolina sank 19 of 31 shots from the floor. This phenom enal 61 accuracy mark afforded them a 48-40 lead at intermission. The McGuiremen also dominated the all-important rebounding phase of the game, grabbing 40 to the Deacons 25. The highly-publicized scoring duel between Wake's All-America Dickie Hemric and Carolina's sensational sophomore Lennie Rosen bluth never quite materialized. Both men double-teamed a good part of the game. Hemric was guarded so closely that his teammates had difficulty getting the ball into him. Rosenbluth volunteered to guard Hemric, but three quick fouls in this role during the opening minutes of the tilt prompted McGuire to take his scoring ace off the 6'6", . 227-lb., three-foot wide Deacon tower. Bob Young, also a 6'6" giant then assumed the task of covering Dangerous Dickie, and Young eventually fouled out in the process, late in the game. Hemric took 23 free throws and made 17 of them. He was held to seven field goals and retrieved only 11 rebounds. Rosenbluth sank ten field goals and four free throws and grab bed 13 rebounds. He shot only 19 times. Reliable Jerry Vayda suffered through a miserable four-point first half effort, only to run wild in the last period, tossing in another 20. Vayda also outshot Hemric from the floor with nine field goals. Tony Radovich, who is not so spectacular but who never seems to make a mistake, worked his back-jack-knife jump shot and four gratis tosses for 18 points. The prettiest shot of the night was his long hook shot from outside the foul circle as the final horn sounded. Al Lifson, the take-charge floorman, contributed 14 markers and his usual excellent floor game. But the most pleasantly surprising feature of the night was Bob Young's coming to life. The fair-haired New York sophomore has been the victim of a long, cold streak, but Saturday night he thawed out and hit a sizzling high mark. The six-foot, six-inch husky was the main cog in Carolina's first half attack, repeatedly hitting on long sets from the corner with readly accuracy. He sat out part of the Wnnrl half after committing his fourth personal, but returned long enough to add another field goal, bringing his total for the night to 15. Lifson, Vayda, Rosenbluth, and Radovich never left the game. Paul Likins was the only sub used. Tar He,el mentor McGuire con tinues to win friends and influence people by such sportsmanlike gestures as going out of his way to tell Wake Forest guard Jackie Murdock to return to the game after the official scorer had ruled him out on five fouls. (Murdock and the Wake Forest coaches said he had committed only four.) He went back in and fouled out later. The Tar Heels play only three more games here, including to night's encounter. Ten games, plus the ACC championship tourna ment remain to be played. The televising of the Wake Forest-UNC game is supposed to have caused a 2,000 drop in attendance at the Duke-State game in Durham. (Well, you can't please everybody) Carolina was an underdog going nto the Deacon fracas. . . Fur man, with or without Frank Selvy is a regular scoring machine. They set' a new national scoring record last Friday night by trampling the Citadel, 154-67, scoring 84 points in the first half. . . Their scoring whiz.nationally second-ranked Darrell Floyd sank 50. Third-ranked State stands an excellent chance of being No. 1 in the nation this week, No. 1 Kentucky and No. 2 Duquesne having been the victims of ignoble upsets Saturday night. . . Georgia Tech in defeating Kentucky -59-58, is the first team to down the Wildcats on their home court since Janury 2. 1943, 129 games ago. A South eastern quint had not turned the trick since 1939. Duquesne was slapped down by little St. Francis of Loretta, Pa., 82-72. Noticed a syndicated sports cartoon in a Virgnia newspaper on Paul Likins, Carolina's Rhodes Scholar-athlete. Whizzer White, Colorado's great All-America football and basketball player, and Boxing Commissioner Eddie Eagan were also Rhodes recipients. . . Likins, co-captain of the Tar Heel five and regular starter for the past three years, is being given a run-for-his-money by sophomore Bob Young. A letter of thanks from Ed Patterson, senior guard on the Car olina grid team, appeared on the Greensboro Daily News sports page recently. . . Patterson was showing his appreciation for being se lected on the Daily News All-State football team. . . - A month ago we all were admonishing the University not to even consider breaking football coach George Barclay's contract, since it had a year to run. . . it would be unfair, immoral to do such a thing, we said. . . Last Sunday Bowden Wyatt stepped out of a five-year contract at Arkansas, with three years to run, to sign another five-year deal with Tennessee. . . He had just received a pay raise from $12,000 to $15,000 at Arkansas and the fans had presented him with a shiny, new Cadillac and had raised-a $20,000 cash fund for his assistants. . . Is it any less wrong if the shoe is on the other foot? Tony Radovich, starting forward on the Tar Heel five, .garnered IS points in Saturday's game with Wake Forest, which the Tar Heels won, 95-78. Radovich, a native of Hoboken, New Jersey, is the holder of several New Jersey high school scoring records. .. Carolina's' Tar Heels, riding along in the Atlantic: Coast Conference race in a tie for second place, take on the sixth ranked University' of Virginia Cavaliers tonight in Woollen Gym to open a three-game week of conference battles? Game time tonight is H:iry o'clock, following a freshman preliminary contest at (in-, between the Tar Babies and the Duke frosh.

Jan.- 8 WPi North Carolina's undefeated swimming team handed Virginia j its second setback in three meets I today by routing the Cavaliers, 58-26. The visiting Tar Heels set three new records in the process. North Carolina relay teams set Baby Dolphins Take Third Win Carolina's freshman swimming behind N. C. State. UNC head coach Frank McGuire, who was well satisfied with his team's showing Saturday night a gainst Wake Forest, said yester day that Virginia is liable to prove just as tough to conquer. "Virgin ia has a better talanced team than Wake Forest," he elaborated, "and the team is a good one be cause of ("Buzz") Wilkinson, I would feel a lot better if I knew we would have a shooting percen-! tage like we did Saturday night." j Wilkinson, who holds nearly all! the individual records at Virginia,' was tne tourth highest scorer in the nation, averaging 30 points per game, throught the first of the j year. In a game last season against Carolina he tallied 45 points. A senior from Pineville, W. Va., Wilkinson last year led the confer ence in scoring with an amazing total of 814 points. The Cavaliers, however, have notj fared too well this season despite j Wilkinsons' work. They have losti to Maryland twice and Wake For-1 est, with league wins over South Carolina twice and Clemson. Their latest conquest, a non-conference 26.6. Vayda has a 14.1 average while Lifson has a 12.3. Young, a sophomore who has ben alternating with Paul Likins at center, was the Tar Heel spark until fouling out on Dick Hemric toward the end of the game. Radovich, New Jersey junior, is improving with every performance. The Wake Forest game was his best of the year. After tonight's game, there will be only two more home contests' for the Tar Heels . . . Duke and N. C. State.
