Julian Smith Shows
That Good Men Also
Are Found On Bench
Chapel Hill.?There hasn't been a
better basketball player the last two
Carolina games than Julian Smith,
the Pitt County Panther. He made
12 points against The Citadel, added
six more in the VMI game, showed
the way in floor-work and fight in
both battles and generally appeared
to be the hottest thing to show in
short pants around these parts for
several cold winters.
Yet, when the season started few
people thought of Smith as a eager.
As recently as Friday night when the
Phantoms were doing a thorough job
of crushing VMI, Boy Armstrong,
who is in charge of rushing any and
all prospective students and learning
their habits, talents and aversions,
noticed Smith on the floor and ob
served, "well, there's one of my boys.
But I didn't know he could play
basketball."
Bill Lange may have had hope that j
Smith would develop but he knew
Julian was as green as unripe celery.
The boy hadn't been any better than
reserve squad on the freshman team
of a winter ago, and that didn't give
much promise for varsity preatness.
Things didnt happen in the first
few games of the season. Lange had
promised to substitute freely, experi
ment with men and positions, but
Smith didn't figure too heavily in his
plans. Not just yet The Phantoms
began their regular schedule against.
Applachian and Catawba with wins?
still no Smith. Conference triumphs
over Davidson, Virginia Tech and
Wake Forest . Brother Smith was
still on the bench, enjoying the
scenery, the trips but perhaps not the
idea of other fellows getting an op
portunity to perform.
That would bring the story up to
last Wednesday. The Citadel was
the opposition and by half-time the
first and second Phantom teams had
done such a thorough job of demolish
ing The Citadel that bystanders were
suggesting rescue squads be sent out
to save the Bulldogs from further
humiliation.
.bange tried to do ms part, or ne
thought he was. He sent the third
team out on the floor. There was
Smith. The thing becomes as ex
plosive as a country fair show. Julian
started slowly, took a couple of shots
and missed. Then he started putting
in baskets. He put them in from all
angles. He made all kinds of shots.
The stands laughed at first The
fellows on the bench smiled. Still
Smith kept making points. The spec
tators were standing and cheering by
this time; the players clapped. All
in all, Julian collected six field goals
He was cheered to the roof, to coin
a phrase, when he left the game.
The Smith performance against The
Citadel moved the lad, up to the St<6
ond team for Friday's VMI game. Wt
played seven minutes at the first half,
made three baskets. By this time
everybody had gotten used to Smith
exploding all over the place.
Julian it from Farmville and he
looks like he might collapse out on
the floor at any moment. He playaf
forward at Farmville high and was
reserve on the Tar Babies. He plana
to go into the commerce school and
major in accounting.
