CAROLINA DEFEATS STATE BY 13-7 COUNT _ * X X 4r 4r 4r +44 4 4 4 4 4 4 ★★'4 4 4 4 LALANNE GIVEN CREDIT FOR W» Scores One Touchdown, Sets Up Another, Then Snags Man To Save Game BY FRANK B. GILBRETH RALEIGH, Oct. 19—UP)—Sweet Jim Lalanne scored one touch down, set up another and then saved the ball game for his North Carolina mates by coming out of nowhere and nailing a runner from behind, as the Tar Heels defeated N. C. State 13-7, in an action pack ed southern conference game here today before 15,000. State took an early lead, scoring five minutes after the opening kickoff. The touchdown was set up after a State punt bounced off the leg of Don Baker, and was cover -ed on North Carolina’s 21 by Ralph Burt, State guard. Pat Fehley gained 11 and a pass from Dick Watts to Jack Hurkabee was good in the end zone. Fehley kicked the placement. Lalanne evened the count with 10 seconds left in the first quarter. Plunging over left guard from the two-yard stripe, Harry Dunkle con verted from placement. Sweet Jim took over personally in the third period. Starting on State’s 43, he carried the ball for eight successive plays, swivel-hip ping through the Wolf pack line for 42 yards. He went over on the ninth play, but his mates were off side. Two plays- later, however, Paul Severin scored on an end around. Severin’s placement was wide and short. State came within an ace of a Hollywood finish in the final quart er, when Fehley, standing in his end zone, tossed a pass to Watts in the flat. Watts galloped 25 yards, and then shot a laterr.1 back to Fehley, who was in tint clear. Fehley raced all the way tc North Carolina’s 16, where he was pulled down from behind by Lalanne. A light drizzle fell during most of the game, which was a high light of Greater University Day here. Both State and Carolina are units of the Greater University of North Carolina. The Tar Heels were favored to take the game in a walk, but the fighting Wolfpack made things tough from start to finish. Star of SI .te’s attack was Dick Watts, whose flashy runs and passes kept the Raleigh team in the game all the way. Even after Lalanne’s sensational burst of speed prevented Fehley from scoring in the final quarter, the Wolves kept coming back, and coming back, until most of the spectators were on their feet in various stages of hysteria. Lalanne’s tackle gave State the ball on Carolina’s 16. On* the very next play, Watts — cold as a cu cumber—shot a beautiful pass to Marion Stilwell in the end zone. The ball was right in Stilwell’s mitts but he dropped it. Three plays later, Carolina got the ball on downs on the 11, and Lalanne punted to his own 48. 3 Georgia Tech Proves It Still Has Plenty ATLANTA, Oct. 19.—UP)—1The op position can quit pursing those hopes that Georgia Tech would be a bit softer this season—the Techs have it again and they proved it to 20,000 home customers today by walloping a tough Vanderbilt team, 19-0. The Yellow Jackets made it look like an easy job to beat the Com modores as they cashed in neatly on power, passing and alertness but Princeton and Kentucky can tell you that Vandy is no pushover, so it must be that Alexander’s rag time band has something on the ball again. 1 BOWLING INDEPENDENT LEAGUE Ramblers 12 3 Total Eriksen - 199 184 163 546 Keen- 117 129 _ 246 McNeil- 140 153 177 476 Schadt - 151 163 147 461 Dummy_' 100 _ ... 100 Crute - — 90 136 226 Reece - — — 140 140 Totals - 713 719 763 2195 Sneeden York 12 3 Total Morse- 154 167 148 469 McKeithan - 146 161 125 432 Register - 180 161 200 451 Sneeden_ 149 _ _ 149 King - 132 145 165 442 Hayden_ — 144 139 283 Totals _ 761 778 777 2316 Jewell’s Serv.
