Tar Heel Cagers Boast Balanced Attack
It 'might he a little early yet to start presenting the Car
olina cagers with bouquets because the Tar Heels still have
a long road to travel in order to dethrone N. C. State as ACG
champs, but Coach Frank McG uire's tall and talented ag
gregation lias certainly proven itself the team to beat and
. there's a very good reason for this the Tar Heels play basket
ball as it should be played as a team.
The Carolina - William and Mary box-score will
serve as a good illustration of the point under discussion.
TJie Indians held high scoring Lennie Rosenbluth to
only ten points and normally this would bring about de
vastating results to a ball club which features a great
scorer like Resy. But Rosenbluth's bad night had little
effect on the finat outcome because Pete Brennati, Joe
duigg and Tommy Kearns took up the slack left by Ros
enbluth and tallied 52 of Carolina's i points.
This was not die first time that the Tar Heels had call
ed upon their clutch guys. Up in Madison Square Garden
(luring the Christmas holidays, Uig Len was held to 9 points
against N.V.LJ. and-this time it "was 'Bob Cunningham, nor
mally not much of.a scorer but a teriffic floor man, who pro
vided the scoring punch for the Tar Heels. Against Furman
Ouigg came off the bench and shook-'the .'Tar. Heels out of
a momentary delimma with a quick scoring flurry.
What this all boils down to is the definite fact that the
Tar Heels are far from being a one or two man team. Every
one of the first seven men are big scoring threats and it goes
without saying that a team with those qualities is one that
is going to be plenty tough to beat.
Jackie Moreland: Man With A Problem
Most college students right now have layed aside thoughts
of anything but exams but there's one" 'fellow. over at North
Carolina State who , is probably more' .concerted aboij't what
he'll be doing a month . from now than how1 his exarfls yilj
come out. The fellow is one'jaclie Slorelandl'the'imfoftu
nate victim of one of the biggest college athletic squabbles
in a long time. Jackie, an honor "student', is caught between
the devil and the deep blue, sejr. now: that the ACQ i un
decided as to whether or not it rvv ill review., hisi case again.
V that Jackie's problems would he midiput again fjtt now..
' the conference committee hTjeportedh . pi arming t? call ,,
the case closed. ;;t-. 'ivw :,?; . ; ;r;' .''; ?" '-'
Moreland admittedly lies Oi'e Rafeiglrscnool AndMvouId
like to stay. on if , there is any pdssibiliiy'that he miojht still
thf tp( .-inrT lvhitp' On' the other" lianl he nroh
ably feels that he is wasting a semester by sticking' around
Raleigh if the committee does decide to call the case a closed
matter. It's understandable that Jackie would rather move on
to another school and establish residence in order to be
eligible to play as quickly as possible. Its an unenviable po
sition to be in and a tough decision for, a 19 year old to
make.
Needed: More Games In Woollen Gym
Seems a shame that the highly ranked Tar Heels are
playing only eight games in Chapel Hill this season and the
situation does not show any signs of improving in the im
mediate future. The story is.that the Woollen Gym; seating
capacity limits the number of fans outside the students to
attend the games and this means that Carolina has very little
to offer in the wav of money to its opponents for a- trip to
Chapel Hill. ' -
Many schools are anxious to play tlie Tar Heels
but their stipulation is that the game 'is to be played on
' their own home court. Naturally the Tar Heels benefit
from this arrangement financially and so goes the story.
Still it seems that the students are not exactly getting a
fair shake.
The hot and cold Clemson Tigers invade "the Hill"
tonight and will be out to pull a stunning upset as they did
against N. C. State early in the season. Tomorrow night the
Virginia Cavaliers will be in town and these two contests will
give Carolina students a short respite before they buckle down
to the tasks of exams. :
Tatum Says He Intends
To Stay At Chapel -Jill
ST. LOUIS -UP Jim Tatum, foot
ball coach at North Carolina, yes
terday scotched a report he was dis
satisf ield there and was interested
in the vacant head coaching job at
Indiana.

Football Coaches- Assn. meeting,
; aid he hadn't asked Indiana or any
other school for a coaching job.
Tatum said he left , one of ' "the
best coaching jobs in the country
at Maryland" to go to North Car
olina last season and he intended
to stay there.
At Louisville, 'Ky., the Courier

The Courier said it learned that
Tatum conferred at length' Wednes
day with Indiana University Offi
cials about the vacant Indiana head
coaching job, V
The paper said reports indicate
that Tatum is unhappy about-, the
sudden suYgeXof basketball interest
at -North Carolina where the Tar
Heels are rated the nation's No. 2
team in the latest Associated press
poll.
The paper added should Tatum
decline the job" -or it) not be of
fered to him it's likely that
Warren Geise, an assistant under
Tatum for his eight, years at Mary

UNC Quint
Goes After
Number 13
By LARRY CHEEK
That magic number 13 corner up
tonight for Coach Frank MKJulre's
Carolina basketballers when the
undefeated Tar Heeds play host to
the Clemson; Tigers in the. first of
a two game iome stand against
ACC opposition.
The towering Tar Heels, ranked
second in" the nation behind
Kansas', have breezed to 12 con
secutive wins without a loss this
season and will be looking for num
bers ,13 .and 14 against Clemson
tonight and Virginia tomorrow
night. Both games will tip off at 8
p.m. after a freshman preliminary.
In a game played earlier this
season in Charlotte, Carolina rout
ed Clemson,- 94-75. Pete Brennan
sparked the red hot Tar Heels in
their best effort of the season, hit
ting for1 28 points.
The ' Tigers,v beset by personnel
problems, have had little luck
since that date. The only bright
spot so far. has been, an, upset, jwin'
over jj.C.'. Stale .dwn jn. South
Carolina. Earlier this, mqntb, Coach
Press Maravich suspended two of
his top performers for disciplinary
reasons, but the two, guards. Tom
Cameron and. Dick' Yeary, have
since been rein.i'tated by Maravich.
The Tar Heels will be more than
happy , to I see their home court
again. Tuesday night they journey
ed up tp Williamsburg, Va., to bat
tle the Wrilliam &. Mary Indians,
and barely managed to escape with
their scalps. The largest crowd
ever, to see a game in the W & M
gym watched their darlings drop
a 71-61 decision to the cold Tar
Heels.
The Indians hit 48 per cent of
their shots while Carolina could do
no ! better thati 30 per cent as Leri
Uie Rosenbluth sank only 1 of 3
froitf ;the floor: i But ; the superior
UNC height and all round play
meant thei difference. v . - f

Tabori will be making his first ef
fort on a board track when he meets
Ashenfelter, but that he does not
plan any indoor running prior to

Lead Team
Carolina's onee beaten Tar Baby
eagers face their third Big Four op
ponent of the season tonight when
they play host to the Baby Deacons
from Wake Forest in a 6:15 prelim
inary to the varsity game against
Clemson.
The Carolina frosh have won five
decisions while losing only to N. C.
State's Highly touted yearlings.
They whipped their other Big Four
rival, Duke, by , a convincing mar
Sin. Most of the Tar Baby wins to date j
have been one sided romps over
junior colleges, but the competition
should be a little stiff er tonight.
Wake Forest varsity coach Murray
Greason, with the able assistance
of Bones McKinney, has gathered
together a top notch group of re
cruits at the Baptist school. They
5U0 have lost to State, however.
As usual the Tar Baby starters
will be Lee Shaffer and York Larese
at forwards, Dick Kepley at center,
snd John Crotty and Mike. Steppe
at guards. Grey "Poole, Wally Gra
ham, Jack Crutrhfield and Bill Mc
Racken are top reserves.
Shaffer and Larese have paced .
the Tar Baby scoring all year long
with able assistance from Kepley
and Crotty.
Tomorrow night the Tar Babies
will meet a rugged squad from
Stallings Air Force Base here.
