CLEMSON AT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA- The Trojans have a good shot at the Rose Bowl and are currently unbeaten. They are too much for Frank How ard's Tigers. USC by 13. STATE AT DUKE: Another family affair. Flip a com and take your pick. The Wolfpack is better than 1-4 and the Dookies are in their traditional mid season skid. Statae by 7. SOUTH CAROLINA AT TENNESSEE: Paul Dietzel must be getting tired of playing SEC teams. The Vols are nothing but tough, losing two games by four points. Tennessee by 10. VIRGINIA TECH AT VIRGINIA: Bobby Davis can do wonders with a football and when he's hot, UVa. can beat anyone. Tech is rolling, too, though, enough to win by 6 points. NOTRE DAME AT OKLAHOMA: I absolutely will not pick against Notre Dame. But Oklahoma is un beaten and their field is known as "th-s snake pit." The Soo ers will give the Irish a real run for their shamrocks. Notre Dame by 4. FLORIDA AT LSU: There are not many teams that beat the Tigers in Baton Rouge at night. There are not many teams that have Steve Spurrier, the best passer in the land, either. The winner of this game may wind up in the Sugar Bowl. With crossed fin gers, Florida by 7. HOUSTON VS. MISSISSIPPI: Ole Miss is just not the powerhouse it used to be. Houston, on the other hand, is a rising giant. Houston, by 10. ; TULANE AT GORGIA TECH: Don't laugh at Tu lane. They've carved out a 4-1 record. But Tech is headed into someone's bowl game and just have too much. Tech by 17. PURDUE AT MICHIGAN STATE: The Spartans are simply devastating. But everyone needs an upset. Since MSU can't go to the Rose Bowl, Purdue probably will. A victory here would be just that much sweet er. Bob Griese is due to throw the ball all over the stadium. Purdue by,3 ,;-;;.s .... U.C.L.A. AT CALIFORNIA: Gary Beban is a re markable young quarterback and the Bruins can scent those roses again. Don't bet against a team averag ing well over 30 points a game. U.C.L.A. by 20. DARTMOUTH AT HARVARD: No bowls here, but the best of the Ivy League will decide the champ ionship. Mickey Beard makes Dartmouth tough. Har vard leads the nation in rushing offense. In a close one, Harvard by 2.

Robl in Jrroiii By JOEY LEIGH DTH Sports Writer "You can't keep a good man down." This may not be the motto of Tim Karrs, but for his first three years at UNC, it sure fits him to a "T". Karrs, a three - sport letter man at Harbrack High School in his hometown, Latrona Heights, Pa., has been playing football since grade school. At Carolina, Karrs was the quar terback on the Tar Babies un defeated 1964 team, was the signal, caller for last year's scout squad, and this year was No. 3 quarterback, on the spe cial kickoff team and prac ticed at fullback. Whether it be at quarter back, fullback, or kickoff re turn man, Karrs took on all the assignments which his coach es gave him. His desire, his ability and his dedication to football have shown the coach es that he deserved to play somewhere. And somewhere he will play. Tall for a quarterback at 6'3", Karrs' ability in high school .Red. Shir lo tarter was apparent to some 25 col leges that sought to recruit .him, among which were Mis souri, Minnesota, Arizona and Penn State. As a red shirt last year, Karrs stated, "We would be the opposing team for that week. When they have a great er went to the sideline with injuries, Karrs found himself the first and only quarterback. "When I first went in, I was a little nervous," Karrs said. "I had not practiced at quar terback for a long time and I was unsure of the new plays put in especially for Notre player such as Nick Eddy or Dame. Coach Hickey just said Charlie Noggle, we try to iook to me, "you u nave to run me like they do running the same plays and wearing the player's name across our hel met. If we have depth at one position, the third and fourth team are held out. This gives us another years' eligibility and experience." Karrs, a fullback for the ten days prior to the Notre Dame game, was thrust into an un enviable position at South Bend. After the game, Coach Jim Hickey said of Karrs and his performance, "Tim did a fine job. I salute him." Karrs was sitting on the bench at South Bend as the second team fullback. As the first quarter ended, Karrs re ceived a promotion. When Danny Talbott and Jeff Beav- team!" "I received a lot of encour agement from the coaches and my teammates," continued Karrs. "They kept telling me that I could do the job. Coach Hickey called the plays. Wes and Riggs were running well off tackle and Maze up the middle. Passing wasn't too difficult, except against the wind." About the passing situation, Karrs said, "If I threw the ball high the wind would really take the ball. I tried to throw r low shoulder high passes so we would have a better chance for completions. Once. I tried to hit Knott, the wind was so bad that the ball drop ped real quick and went be tween his legs." Once again the passing com binations of Karrs to Carr clicked for Carolina. As fresh men in 1964, Karrs and Can helped to run six opponents ragged. At South Bend, Karrs completed 10 for 20 and out of these ten, Carr had eight "With a wisp of smoke and o magic stick OF Fauntlcroy tcill make his pick" That's right, football fans, OV Fauntleroy will make his pick. ThaVs me, you know. "Lord Fauntle roy is his name. I dropped the "Little" bit a long time ago. These are the opening lines from the First Fauntle roy column. They appeared on September 18, 1965 in the Daily Tar Heel. A lot of words were written, a lot of predictions were made, and a lot of people worked on the col umn during Fauntleroy's short life. The original idea belonged to Pat Stith, last year's sports editor and later managing editor. He wanted to put some life into the job of predicting, he wanted a character to do the job, and he knew that a hum orous ficticious prognosticater would do the job. So Fauntleroy went into print. He was disguised as the likes of Jane Mansfield, Elizabeth Taylor, a horse, Tony Randall, and even Pat's two year - old son "Bo". Fauntleroy was written first by Gene Rector. Gene made him a poet and gave him his supremely self confident character. Rector made the column work. It was interesting and amusing. It had wide reader ship and every week throughout the long football seson people looked foreward to it. Faunts made mistakes. One Saturday he missed six out of his ten predictions. But always he came back receDtions "Ten days lack of practice with an outrageously original excuse. did not hurt my passing, stated Karrs. "The wind and hard rushes by the opposing linemen caused a few incom pletions. I wasn't too sharp, though. I should've completed more." Coach Hickey said after the Fauntleroy lasted through the basketball season last year and was, of course, revived this September. A lot of people worked out secret frustrations writing it: But the column was a gimmick, and people didn't take long to tire of it. It's tough to pound out some-, game that special plays for thing amusing and original under the pressures of a Notre Dame had to be dis- deadline Rector was able to do it when Faunts was carded when he lost his first i i. n ii r-t two quarterbacks.

He lasted only a year, and now basic offense and I didn't know t f f. wisn of smoke and made stick". And I'm sure you'll agree that it's better this way. the footwork Karrs. at all," said M 1 1 ton s Harriers Seek Win No. Five MONOGRAM r?r f X 9 1 DINING ROOM Luncheon Special For Today Spiced Luncheon Heal WApple Ring Choice Of Two Vegetables Salad WDressing Beverage Homemade Layer Cake s 97 By DRUMMOND BELL DTH Sports Writer After a 15-50 shutout at the hands of the Maryland Terra pins last weekend, Carolina's cross country team meets the Clemson Tigers on Finley Golf course at 11 o'clock today. Against Maryland the har riers were outclassed as the Terrapins took the first six places. However, Carolina's top runner, Mike Williams, was not up to par and should give a better account of him self today. Also, the sopho more quartet of Steve Wil liams, Joe Lasich, T r u i 1 1 Goodwin and Jim Hotelling did not finish together as in pre vious meets which was a de cisive factor. Today Coach Hilton hopes that his team can come back from their loss and run as a group in order to defeat a me diocre Clemson squad. The Tar Heels will be lead by co-captains Trip MacPher son and Charlie Worley, both of whom have begun to show their form of old. Again, Coach Hilton will have a strong sophomore contingent consisting of Truitt Goodwin, who was Carolina's first fin isher against Maryland, Jim Hotelling, Joe Lasich, Steve Williams, Kent Autry and Wayne Franklin. Juniors Mike Williams, Bill Bassett and Fred McCalf are ready to go and give the har riers extra depth. Clemson has not beaten the Tar Heels for seven years in dual meets and will be out to break this string. However, it appears that Carolina has the advantage again as their depth is superior to the Tigers'. Hopefully, the meet will not be as tough as Maryland since the harriers will have little time to rest up for their next meet against Wake Forest on Tuesday at Chapel Hill. SAYS SO IN THE BOOK . ST.
