? . . North Carolina Engages Texas Christian 'Aerial Frogs' Saturday Afternoon Demon Deacs Tangle With Clemson In Important Conference Tilt Texas Christian Had Best Aerial Outfit in Nation Last Season Dean Bujgley, 155-pounder, U Rate<l Better Than Baugh Or Davey O'Brien By TOM BOST. JR. Chapel Hill ? Texas Christian's crack aerial express, the fastest and most proficient passing outfit in the nation last season, is roaring on all cylinders again and ready for an other record run when the Horned Frogs meet North Carolina at Chapel Hill Saturday at 2 o'clock. Last season the Express broke all records in the country for speed and distance. Two hundred and forty - five passes were attempted and 120. or 49 per cent, were completed for a total of 1485 yards. And now the 1940 Express appears to be every bit as fast and efficient as the 1939 record breakers. In their two games this season, TCU has con nected on 50 per cent of its passes. Last week against Arkansas, the Frogs, propping for the Tar Heels, kept their aerial guns well under cover but revealed enough to win easily and coast in. The Christians tossed only nine passes but hit the bulls-eye six times. Three of these completions were converted direct ly into touchdowns and TCU won, 20 to 0. Leading the aerial siege against the Tar Heels will be Dean Bag ley, the phenomenal sophomore pitcher, and Jack Odle, Glenn Cow art, and Kyle Gillespie, who success fully directed the 1939 passing champions. Odle and Gillespie are running ahead of the all-time completion percentages of the great Sammy Baugh and Davy O'Brien, TCU aerial magicians of several seasons ago. Odle and Gillespie have percentage marks of .538 and .495 respectively, as compared with .482 for O'Brien and .458 for Baugh But to the 155-pound Bagley goes the credit for sparking TClTs open ing victories over Centenary and Ar kansas. And while Odle and Gilles pie are surpassing the marks of Baugh and O'Brien, it's Bagley whom tne ltu supporters are acclaiming as good or better passer than the two boys who are leaders in the pro fessional leagues today. Bagley scored one touchdown each against Centenary and Arkan sas, but it was his spectacular pass ing that set up directly or indirectly the majority of the other touch downs. The hurlers for Carolina will be Lalanne, Pecora and O'Hare, with Severin, Connor and Bobbitt doing the catching Biggest of a Big TCU Line At 229 pounds, Woodrow Adams Is the heaviest man in the ruffed Texas Christian line which averafes 208 pounds?IT pounds per man heavier than the Carolina forward wall. The two teams will meet in Chapel Hill Saturday afternoon in what promises to be the most spec tacular aerial battle ever wit nessed by football fans of this section. V.M.I. Keydets Meet Davidson Tomorrow V M I's football squad, consist ing of three full teams, journeyed to Charlotte today, where the fight ing Squadron will meet Davidson College Saturday. More than 500 members of the Corps of Cadets will go to Charlotte for the contest. Coach Pooley Hubert is planning to start James "Son" Shelby at quar terback in place of "Bosh" Pritch ard, who has been recuperating from injuries in the Duke game two weeks ago, but the Hopewell Hurri cane is sure to see service. "Ripper" Walker, blocking beak, along with "Sweet Nellie" Catlett, who has scored four touchdowns in three games, and Joe Muha, 195-pound sophomore triple-threat, will com plete the starting backfield. Davidson will probably present its best team thus far this season with the return of Granny Sharpe, sparkplug in the Wildcat offense Coach Gene McEver feels that after the battle last year, which V. M I won 2 to 0, anything can and usually does happen when these two fight ing organizations get together on the gridiron. NOTICE OF SALE North Carolina. Martin County.- In The Superior Court.

Pope Hildreth Mobley and Harrison and Carstarphen Bitter Memory Of Last Year's Defeat In Minds of Deaes rjenittoir* Ti(ygt?r? Offer larg er Array of Star Baek fieltl C.umli<lutr* A game, earmarked as one that may go down in history and long be remembered by backers of the rival schools, is scheduled for Clem son's stadium Saturday afternoon between the Deacons of Wake Forest and the Tigers of Clemson. Wake Forest is the only major con ference team which is meeting Duke. North Carolina and Clemson this year. These were the three outstand ing clubs in the pre-season figuring. The Deacs have already beaten North Carolina and if Clemson should win from Wake this week, the Tigers would be assured of at least a tie for the crown, since it is unlikely they will lose to any other league team. There are many possibilities hing ing upon the outcome of Saturday's game at Clemson. and this, coupled with the natural rivalry existing be tween the two teams adds up to a great ball game Last fall Clemson won 20-7, and it was mostly Banks McFadden. Shad Bryant and Charlie Timmons in the backfield for the Tigers. Now it's Aubrey Rion, Chippy Maness, Booty Payne, the same Timmons, Dan Cole man, Georgie Floyd and about a doz en others. Wake Forest doesn't hope to match Clemson's numbers, but with Cap tain Jim Ringgold, Tony Gallovich, Jolting John Polanski, J. V. Pruitt, Marshall Edwards and Key May berry all ready to go, the Deacons will be popping off some fireworks themselves. No doubt, it will be a great day far the rival backfield stars, but when those two lines crack heads, this will be something else. Both are big, powerful and headed by veter ans, and probably herein is where the difference in the clubs will out. Clemson's Joe Blalock, All-South ern end, George Fritts and Bill Hall, tackles, and Captain Bob Sharpe are the boys who seem to do the most damage to their opponents They all Sl.nted against Wake Finest last year John Jett, end; Carl Givler and Frank Kapriva, guards, and John Pendergast, center, were in the start ing line-up for Wake Forest against Clemson in '39 and will all be in there again Saturday Two soph tackles. Pat Preston and Tony Ru bino, and Senior Paul Waivers, end. will round out Wake's No 1 line. DRIVE CAREFUL More people are killed and injured ' on Saturday than on any other daj of the week.
