WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, FACE FOUR THE DAILY TAR HEEL WING'S Corner By BILL KING DTH Sports Editor ar H el Footbai ers Drill For em'son Tar Heels Still Optimistic Tatum "I still U'lu'vi' wo fan have a fine ball club by mid -season," sai.l Inn Tatum at his weekly press conference yesterday. Tatum told newspapermen that he didn't feel at all like he did after the N. C. State game of a year ago. The Tar Heel mentor indicated that he knew last season that he was in for a long year, but this year 'there is a lot of hope for us." .Naturally we wore disappointed after the State game Saturday." Tatum continued, "but the boys showed improvement and definite hope tor the future." Sunny Jim readily admitted that State was the better ball club Saturday but was a bit perplexed that the Tar Heels were favored in pre-game dope. He referred to a statement made by Wolfpack chieftain Earle Edwards prior to the game that Caro lina was picked to win because of Tatum's coaching record. Tatum was disappointed and a bit amazed that his team did not. score.' 'Why. In-fore the game." he stated, "I would have staked my life that we would score as much as three touchdowns. Passing Was Big Disappointment Asked if he thought "breaks" was an instrumental factor in the outcome. Tatum replied: "Anytime a same is that close the breaks are omind to play a bij; part. Wj got as many breaks as State but ours were spread out and their's came together." What phase of the Carolina play disturbed Tatum most? Pass ing! "I don't understand it," he said. "I know we have three good passers yet we could do little through the air Saturday." Sunny Jim was reluctant to single out any individual stars, but remarked that Co-Captain IUiddy Payne "placd one of the best ames I've ever seen him play." Sophomore Backs Should Develop Tatum praised the work of his taekh's. all six of them. He iruli- 1 cited that since there were s many sophomores in the line he miuht ; make some personnel changes, though nothing radical. ; The Tar Heel coach pointed cut that it takes sophomore backs less time to develop'thm soph linemen and viewed that by mid- j season some of his sophomore backfield men should be playing like veterans. T.itum was r. -minded that earlier he had expressed pleasure in lu nifen-ive prospectus -: the Tar Heels got only 73 yards rushing. lAidcr.th lie t!t that tli.it u.is just one of those things that happens1 in foith.il!

C. State last Saturday, were reported j in high spirits as they readied i themselves for Frank Howard's i tough Tigers. Clemson walked over a weak Presbyterian team, 66-0, in its opener last Saturday. Clemson. the ACC representa tive to the Orange Bowl in 1956 is reported to have the guns again and should bring a formidable out fit into Kenan Stadium Saturday afternoon. The Tigers are deep and experi enced with a great array of sopho more talent. Frank Howard, the Card Heads! Terp Tickets On Sale Now since they go against one of the nation's toughest, Navy next week. Also, the Tar Heels would like to end an ll-gama losing skein that dates back to the N. C. State game in 1956. Of course the Tar Heels have won since then (twice and tied one) but all was lost when it was learned that an ineligible player had played in '56. At present, Carolina is in good physical shape. Only sophomore Nelson Lowe and junior Emil De Cantis are taking things easy. Lowe, a quarterback, missed the State game and might have to sit out the Clemson affair because df a pulled ligament. DeCantis' status is undetermined at present. He suffered a bruised chest Saturday. Daley Goff, who was injured on the last play of the game Satur day is back in harness.

But the Tar Heels are far from It's been a long time since the two clubs have met. Back in 1915, Carolina took a 9-7 win over the Tigers and the Atlantic Coast Con ference cohorts haven't met since. Carolina has a 3-2 edge in the all- sufficient mental and physical! habits. ... It is a man's game, built solely f.:r courageous, clean and intelligent men." Such was veteran Coach Halo K.-insun's greeting yesterday to the remnants of his fine 1956 cross country squad which swept to a 12 1 record and the ACC cham pionship last fall. Hansen, although met the type to ciime forth with an rut-and-out prediction, seems to be confident that his boys have enonuh ammu nition to carry them through to another top year, de-pite the loss ; f great .lim Heatty.

"They're throwing more passes this season," Tullai avered. What was the most impressive thing alxiut Clemson? Hustle. 'They never loafed." Cheek commented. '"They carried out their assign ment on every play despite the fact they were way ahead." Carolina Harmony; Tickets On Sale Sports notes gathered from here and there. Athletic Director Chuck F.rickson figures the Clemson game will draw about' 25.000 fans to Kenan Stadium. The State game drew 39.000 and was the largest crowd at Kenan since the Tennessee game back in 1953. Three members of the Carolina football team are currently practicing the art of instrumental harmony. Halfbacks Wade Smith and Danny Droze have been meeting in Buddy Payne's room fre quently for a jam session. Droze plays the banjo uke, and Payne and Smith play baritone ukes. Smith and Droze divide the mel ody and tenor parts while co-captain Payne sings bass. Jim Tatum is of the opinion that both his Tar Heels and State College played like a couple of high school teams after the first quar ter Saturday. What else can you expect when it's as hot as it was Saturday? Carolina students are reminded that Maryland tickets are on sale right now at the gym.

(tie) Mississippi (1-0) Penn State (0-0) The first major games of the 1957 season did nothing to alter the general pro-season belief that Oklahoma has the strongest col lege football team in the land. Striking with awesome speed and power against a team that had been regarded as the best in the East, the Sooners . demolished Pittsburgh 26-0 last Saturday and ran their record winning streak to 41 consecutive games. The result was reflected today in the first Asociated Press week ly ranking poll of the new sea son. Oklahoma had been the pick I of the sports writers and broad-! casters in the pre season poll i when they rated the teams in the way they expected them to finish. I Oklahoma was again an over-! whelming choice in the first week-1 ly rating, based on what the teams have shown so far in the new season. ! and Navy, which gave Boston Col lege a 466 battering, advanced to fifth. Tech and Navy had been rated 11th and 12th in the pre- i season voting. Others in the first 10 this week were Minnesota, Duke, Tennessee, Oregon State and Michigan. Duke caught the eyes of the voters by whipping South Carolina 26-14 and Oregon State thumped South ern California 20-0. The Big 10 teams and Tennessee don't open their seasons until next Saturday. Pick Braves In Series By JOE REICHLER MILAVVUKEE, Sept. 24. LW A newly confident Milwaukee team and its suddenly cocky manager, Fred Haney, actually boasted to day how they were going to "take" the proud New York Yan kees in the World Series. And it is surprising how many baseball- wise people here agree with them. Frank Lane and Fred Hutchin son, general manager and field manager, respectively of the St. Louis Cardinals, whose desperate drive to overtake the Braves came to a dramatic tnd last night, are among those who think Milwaukee will humble the American Lea gue's practically perennial cham pions next week. Each has a different reason for stringing along with the Braves. Hutchinson, a former pitching star with Detroit, thinks pitching, with emphasis on Warren Spahn and Lew Burdette, will win for the Braves. Lane picks the Braves on power. "Pitching is usually the decid ing factor in a short series," Hutchinson pointed out. "To my mind, Milwaukee has stronger pitching than New York. I look for Spahn to be the outstanding pitch er in the series. He has the savvy and experience. He's at his best in big games and I believe he ha the kind of eauipment to stoo team like the Yankees. I wouldn't j be surprised if he wins two and ! mavhe thre? games. I look for I Burdette to beat the Yankees at j least once. " - I I.ane. somewhat recovered from yesterday's tough lpss that forced : his R?dbirds to settle for second i j place in the National League race, j was voluble in his praise for the Braves. Milwaukee will prove as good a Series representative as the Na tional League has had in many years," he said. "It is a young team, spirited and hunsry. I think the Braves will come into the se ries with a better mental attitude than any of the Brooklyn teams that faced the Yankees during the j past 10 years. That's because the 1 Dodders, having been beaten by , the Yankees so often looked upon them with unrestrained awe and regarded them as sort of super men. "On the material side, the i Braves have more power than th? i Yankees. I know all about Mickey Mantle and Yogi lierra and no- any more than I do. But Mantle I is hurting and Berra has not had one of his good years. Ticket sales io students for the Maryland game, Oct. 19 in College Park, are lagging behind expectations, Vernon Crook, business manager of athletics, said yesterday. Mr. Crook said he was sur prised that less than one-fourth of the 1,000 tickets allotted for students have been sold. He said after this week the tickets remaining will be on sale to the general public. Chancellor Aycock has desig nated the game as the annual football holiday, and classes will be suspended that Saturday. No definite plans for a train or bus caravan have been made as yet, but officials hope arrangements can be made by the end of this week. Queen Eliazbeth will be pres ent at the game, and it has been announced sne will sit in a spe cial box on the Carolina side of the field.
