FOUR ) TMt DAILY TAR Hi EL FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1957 fl loo 1! "3 U Li i (F ii Tr 1 Today's column is written by Assistant Sports Editor, Bill King. Ed's note. Chamberlain Featured, Not Carolina How good is a basketball team which can win 32 straight ball gams in one season? Good enough to make the headlines of the daily newspapers? Yes! Good enough to receive number one ranking in the nation? Yes! Good enough to rate feature coverage , from a leading weekly magazine? Apparently not, according to Sports Illustrated. ,. We are in accord with the many fans who picked up tlx April 1 issue of Sports Illustrated and read with disgust the ptyn p3 spread given the NCAA basketball tournament in Kansas City March 22-23. The story starts out well enough. The headline, "Cool 32 In Kansas City" and a picture of the Coach of The Year Frank McGuire, gives every indication that at last the Carolina Tar Heels will receive "just" credit for their miraculous achievements during the 1936-57 basketball ivason from SI. But such is not the case. On has to read well dcwn inte the second paragraph of the story to find that the Tar Heels are even mentioned. The first of the article is centered around, you guess ed it, Wiit Chamberlain. According to one Jermiah Tax, the writer of the" story, Chamber lain is the "Lord High Executioner," "the greatest basketball threat to peace of mind pn a court today," and a stripper of strippers. Everybody's Heard Of Chamberlain Writer Tax was- right in indicating that Chamberlain was the big drawing card at the Kansas City extravaganza. It seems feasible that he would be since LawTence, the home of the Jawhawks, is only forty miles away and the fans out .there have heard nothing but Cham berlain since the sabre thin center first hit the KU campus. The point is, Uhat the writer seemed to forget that he was writ ing for a magazine that would circulate all over the nation,' Every body bad heard time and again how great the big fellow was. In our opnion, the majority of the fans would much rather have read about the ability of the championship team than about the "smooth-limbed giant who was designed for basketball as surely as an eagle for flight." Incidentally, the name Rssenbluth appeared only twice in the article and he wa not the Carolina All-American, he was "their great forward." Tax finally issued a few bouquets to the Tar Heels in ,the last paragraph saying that they played well under presi'ure and that "it is impossible to give too much credit t( Frank McGuire and his crew of Tar Heels." Well, writer Tax certainly made sure that he didn't give the Tar Heels too much credit. There is a rumor that Sports Illustrated has received a great many letters concerning the article and has decided to give it another try this week. Let's hope so. ; Carolina Has New Baseball Coaches Little haj been said about the new baseball coaches at Carolina. This season, the Tar Heels have three new men in baseball. The new varsity assistant coach is Bill Wilhelm, a graduate, stu dent who got his sheepskin from North Carolina State.' Wilhelm is assisting head coach Walter Rabb, who only this year was made bf ficial head coach. 4 ' ' ;!' ' " - v- Wayne White, a '53 graduate here is handling the freshmen this season. White succeeded Henry House who res'igned 'to '"devote more time to his work as a gen eraF college advisor.' White, 'who captained the 1953 Tar Heels, is working on a masters in' Physical Education. '' Assisting White with the frosh is Nelville Cooper ,: another grad ' student. Cooper is a graduate of Elon College; All three men have play ed -professional baseball. : ' u I -'''!-'' " Mural Schedule To Run Everyday A new policy of the Daily Tar Heel Sports Department will be. space permitting, to publish the intramural hedule every day on the j Webster, lb uf " i'"o-- nit ion mai. icsmis Luiue in ioo laie ior prim on the next day, the Tar Heel is working with the intramural department on a pian mat will carry the up-to-date standings at least week. 4-Run Rally Falls Short By ED ROWLAND Oberlin College built up a steady lead .over the UNO froi baseball ers yesterday afternoon and with-j stood a 4-run ninth inning rally to' win, 7-5. It was their first win oL the season, and it was the first loss for the Tar Babies. ;i In the ninth, Frank Montgomery1 slammed his second homer of the'( afternoon t6 raise hopes for a Car olina comeback. Ray Burroughs fol- J lowed him with a triple, but an alert Oierlin infield converted a grounder into the final out. I Montgomery hit hu- first homer I in Uxe first inning to provide the j only run for Carolina until the ninth. Burroughs provided first inning fireworks with his initial triple, but he died on third. Tar Baby pitcher Ben Hamniett scattered ten Oberlin hits well, but nine Carolina errors paved the- way lor nis downfall, lie gave up a homer and. a triple to Joe Hodg son for the lone extra base blows the visiting Yeomen could muster, Hodgson's homer in the fifth gave Oberlin the lead for "keeps, and they ' increased it with four more tallies in the eighth. Two hits, a sacrifice, and three consecu tive Tar Baby errors handed Ober lin their' four runs. . ' " Bill Guerrera hurled seven fram es for Oberlin and won his first. Hammett suffered his first loss. The game lasted three hours. Oberlin and the ;Tar Babies will tangle again this afternon at 3:30 r . y 7 A 6 j i Bucs Beat A's FT. MYERS, Fla. (AP) Re lying exclusively on singles, the Pittsburgh Pirates today rammed across four runs in the first two innings and hung on for a 4-3 exhibition victory over the Kansas City Athletics. Bobby Friend, ace Pirate right hander, was credited with the tri umph. He gave up nine hits and all of the Athletics' runs in his seven innings, on the mound. The Pirates hopped on Virgil Trucks, veteran righthander who went all the way, right from the start. They pushed across a run on successive singles by Bill Vir don, Bob Skinner and Gene Freese in the first. Pete Brennan set a new UNC re- j .

(AP) The St. Louis Cardinals took advant age of Pete Wojey's seventh in ning wildness to score two xuns and went on to defeat the De troit Tigers 5;4 yesterday in an exhibition baseball game. In the hectic seventh Wojey, Detroit's second pitcher, twice threw the ball away on attempted pick off plays and forced in one run by walking Bobby Del ' Greco with the bases loaded. ' A Detroit rally against Hoyt j Wilhelm in the eighth fell a run j short when the Tigers could score only once after loading the bases on two walks and a single with one out. j What Is wrote to the university expressing interest in becoming a student In a letter addressed to 'The Head-Master," the 18-year-old Jo hansson explained he heard the game over a U. S. Armed Forces Radio Service broadcast. "I should like to know some thing about the studies at North Carolina University," he wrote. "I should like to study at an American college or university but I think it's rather expensive. I would rather like to get a 'pen friend from North Carolina, so if you know some sweet girl or a boy who should like to write to a Swede you can give them my ad dress." .

Soindor was the first Igloi-man to set a new record in this event with a time of 3:40.8.
