SUNDAY, JANUARY 6, 1957 VAGE POUR THE DAILY TAR HEEL 7 t r, if f u Woollen Varsity And-Freshmen Clash Today in 0 " 1 I I A A i 3 , - 1.: is BILL HATHAWAY . . . . starting varsity center Carolina Caravan By JAKE WADE IN THE MORNING, after their usual ham and eggs at pal Spero's Goody Shop, about the only down town eating place open during the tranquil , holidays in this town, they went to their rooms and most ly slept. This was the University of Xorth Carolina basketball sfluad and the time was last Saturday. That night the Tar Heels would win their eleventh straight game of the season and their first Dixie Classic championship. They had gone into the colorful tournament as the nation's number two team and they lived up to their billing During the day some of the boys did strange things. Tommy Kearns, the Tar Heels back court quarterback, went do&vn town and bought, of all things, a hat. Nobody knew exactly why. Big Billy Hathaway, who before going on the recent northern trip, took the battery out of his car and locked it in the trunk. He h3d found it dead on returning. So he bought a new one. Then "Hot Hod" Hathaway Je cided his beloved auto needed a washing. He went out to the home xf "Sarge" Keller, U. N. C's faith ful equipment man, and borrowed a hose. He washed his car. IN THE AFTERNOON of the eventful day, after lunching at tho Goody Shop, they listened to the matinee games on the radio. At 5 p.m., following their cus torn throughout the tournament in which they turned back Utah and Duke before they toppled the Demon Deacons, they had their steak dinner at Leroy Merritt's "The Pines" restaurant. They they were oLr in their station wagons for the Coliseum, where they far ed so veil all week. The win was a long time coming to the Tar Heels but all agreed that they richly deserved the dia dem. All likewise agreed that this is a wonderful basketball team. It probably is the finest in Carolina's history and Coach Frank McGuire, who did an excellent job in guid ing his team through the colorful meet, thinks it may be the finest he has coached. He has had many good teams. ' LENNIE ROSENBLUTH, the Classic's "Most Valuable" playe.-, probabiy Was the calmest man in the event. Carolina's All-America star, the "man with the golden touch," took it easy each day but at night he was there with those uncanny, silk-like shots and all around brilliance. He v. as the highscorer of the tournament and he is the team's high scorer. He should end the season as one of the nation's high est because if the fine teams he has met so far have been unable to curb him, except momentarily and with gang-up defenses, it is unlike ly future foes will hold him down. Lennie's mom and dad were on hand at Raleigh last week. They are enthusiastic Rosenbluth root ers. But Lennie disclaims too much credit for his team's eleven tri umphs without a setback. He points, rightfully, to the other lads on the team. Tommy Kearns, Pete Brennan, Bob Cunningham, Joe Quigg and Billy Hathaway were the workhorses who did the most playing at Raleigh. It was a team tournament conquest. THE, TAR HEELS face stern business ahead before the season ends. However, after two bus weeks, three games in a row on' their northern trip and three in a row in Raleigh, they are happy to get a few days respite. They swing back into action against William and Mary at Wil liamsburg Jan. 8 and then will show before the home folks again agains. Clemson here on Jan. 11. Befoie it's over in March they must meet Duke and Wake Forest again, along with N. C. State in the Big Four. Then they will shoot for the At lantic Coast Conference champion ship and hope for the "double" that in " the past has become too much of a habit for N. C. State. At present, at least, the Tar Heels are on top of the world and it couldn't happen, as the old saw goes, to nicer fellows. Tip Off Is Slated For 2 O'Clock It will be brother against broth er this afternoon in Woollen Gym when the unbeaten and nationally ranked Carolina varsity cagers take on the scrappy UNC frosh in a family feud slated to tip off at 2 p.m. The scrimmage will be played under actual game conditions just as was the case in two previous varsity-frosh battles. Coach Frank McGuire's high flying veteran ranked second in the nation be hind Kansas and newly crowned champs of the Dixie Classic, swept both of the first two games in pre-season play. They won . the first by a narrow four point mar gin, but ran up a one-sided score in the second fray. The yearling cagers, coached by former UC basketballer Vince Grimaldi,, have posted a respect able 4-1 record for the season. Wins have come over High Point Jayvees, Duke, Wilmington Jun ior College and Edwards Military Institute. State's highly touted) frosh handed them their only set back by a narrow 91-89 margin.

Rounding out the Tar Baby front line is Bruno LaRese, sharp shooting 6 4 forward from New. York City.. On the backline the Tar Babies have tiny John Crotty and Mike Steppe. Crotty, a 5-11 ball hand ling flash, is the team's ace play maker.

They re sumed practice for their next reg ular season game against William & Mary last Thursday, and with the Indian tilt only two days off, the session with the freshmen will serve as a warmup.
