GOOD MORNING
Deacon vs. Archie
By GLENWARD BLOMME
Folks, did you ever see a soldier hunting a demon with
an anti-aircraft gun? Well, if you haven’t (and I am not
«o sure some of you lads haven’t seen more than a demon
on the night of a big grid game) your opportunity is not far
awav. Jim Weaver, director of athletics of Wake F.orest
college, has made tentative arrangemnts with officials of
Camp Davis to open the 1941 grid season in Wilmington. Of
course if enough interest is shown by sports fans other
LJ ’ Ml 1 -
wise the game will De movea
to some other place. I wonder
if you realize just what this
game will mean to ^Vilming
ton? Read on and see.
Big-Time
Friends, Wake Forest is big-time
football! How many of you have
seen a really big college game
other than the one held each year
at Legion field? The Demon Dea
cons put the skids under Ray Wolf
and his North Carolina Tar Heels
last season and then went on to
mop up some other big teams such
as George Washington and Mar
shall. They rate right up among
the top teams of the Southern Con
ference and boast eight lettermen
from the varsity in the lineup this
season. Do you want these war
riors of the Old Gold and Black to
show their wares on your gridiron
and put your town on the list of
good football towns? Start talk
ing it up and please do ’not fail to
call or write me so I can tell the
toys where they stand.
Probably you are already ask
ing yourself the topmost question.
"What about the calibre of thr
soldier eleven?” Frankly I haven’t
received all the information about
each player, but I do know some
of the boys were high ranking
stars on college teams throughout
the country. One lad is from Geor
gia Tech and has played in the
Nose Bowl. Another hails from
Notre Dame where he starred in
the line. There are dozens of
others whose names have blazed
across the sports pages of the
country. The squad will open work
on Sept. 2 under five expert coaches
headed by Captain Aaron Lazar,
former center for Army. One of
New Hanover High school’s prod
ucts is right among the mentors.
' am speaking of Earl Robinson,
firmer Clemson athlete and coach
of Tabor City High last season,
how stationed at Davis.
Admission
The more I write about this
fame the more excited I get. One
of the features of the game is the
admission price. School kids and
^odiers will be admitted for 50c ii

PEPSIS DEFEAT
SOLDIERS, 5 TOO
The Pepsi Colas continued their
string of wins over teams from
Camp Davis in a twilight game at
Legion field yesterday, by the
score of 5 to 0.
Hunker Benson worked the first
four innings and allowed no hits
while whiffing four batsmen. John
ny Edens finished the game per
mitting only three safeties and
fanned three. Jennings Edwards
was the Pepsi receiver.
Griffith started for the soldiers
and pitched the first three innings
giving up five hits. Lefty Host
nick finished the game and allowed
no hits. Holt and West caught for
the losers. Hawkins for the Pepsis
and Shay for the Davis team were
high men with the stick with two
for three.

Soldier Squad Made Up of
College Players Excel
lently Coached
CAMP DAVIS, Aug. 27.—Capt.
A. M. Lazar, former center at
West Point and head coach of the
Camp Davis football team, has an
nounced that the soldiers will hold
their first practice session Tues
day, Sept. 2, in preparation for the
opening game with Wake Forest
college on Saturday afternoon,
Sept. 20, in Wilmington.
More than 75, possibly 100, can
didates will try out for the Camp
Davis team. Assisting Captain
Lazar with the coaching detail will
be Cept. M. L. Vander Meer, for
mer Michigan State coach; Lieut.
George W. Fatheree, coach at Mis
sissippi State; Lieut. Henry John
son, mentor at Springfield college,
and Lieut. Earl Robinson, who
starred at Clemson £nd last year
coached at. Tabor City High.
Because the service squad has
not yet been assembled, Captain
Lazar has been unable to compile
a roster of former college stars
now on duty at Camp Davis, but
the team probably will consist of
numerous former midwestern and
eastern college stars.
One of the notables on the squad
is Peter Arboit, who played end
for Notre Dame. Followers of the
Fighting Irish will remember Ar
boit as the lad who snared a pass
in the Army game in 1939, raced
from deep in Notre Dame terri
tory to the Army five yard line,
and thus set the stage for the
winning touchdown. Arboit is a
private in the 94th Coast Artillery
regiment.
The Camp Davis-Wake Forest
game will be held at the American
Legion stadium in Wilmington. It
will be Camp Davis’ first appear
ance against college competition.
That in itself will attract thousands
of soldiers. Wake Forest’s enviable
record last year indicates the sol
dier eleven will be facing the
toughest kind of competition.
JUGGLED TIGERS

Charlie Root Wins 200th Major Victory
ALL TRIUMPHS
MADE WITH CLUBS
Veteran Steps to Plate With
Bases Loaded in Ninth
and Singles
BOSTON, Aug. 27.—(fl)—Old
Charlie Hoot who is closer than the
next second to being a grandpa,
hung his 200th major league tri
umph on the walls of baseball’s
Hall of Fame today as he set
down the Boston Braves, 6-4, in
the second half of a twin bill.
Old Charlie, who was 42 last

cherished triumph certain, after
his Chicago Cubs dropped the
opener, 6-0, by stepping to the
plate in the ninth with the bases
loaded and beltn g a clean single
to center for two runs.
His victory adds his name to a
distinguished company of five ac
tive pitchers who have attained
the 200 victory goal in their major
league careers but Old Charlie’s
is the more precious to him for
each and every one of his tri
umphs was chalked up with the
Chicago Cubs, for whom he has
toiled for 16 years.
Others holding the honor are
Robert Moses “Lefty” Grove, of
the Boston Red Sox, who attained
his 300th victory here last month;
“Fat Freddie” Fitzsimmons of the
Brooklyn Dodgers; Carl Hubbell
of the New York Giants; Ted
Lyons, of the Chicago White Sox,
and Charlie "Red” Ruffing, of the
New York Yankees. 2

Hogan And Sam Snead
Men To Beat In Hershey
HERSHEY, Pa., Aug. 27.— UP) —
Ben Hogan and Sam Snead, win
ners of nine of the 24 major golf
tournaments of 11941, stood out to
night as the men to beat for the
$5,000 Hershey Open Championship
over 72 holes of medal play in the
next four days.
Hogan, now the host professional
at the Hershey Country club, car
ries a remarkable record into the
tournament. He has won $12,733
this year, $4,000 more than Snead,
the nearest competitor among the
golf professionals. Little Ben has
averaged 70.3 strokes per round,
while Snead is second in this de
partment, too, with an average of
71.04 over 65 eighteen-hole rounds.
Hogan and Snead have just about
spread-eagled the field in the com
petition for the Vardon trophy,
given to the professional golfer
with the best accomplishments
over a year’s period. Hogan has
418 points; snead, 343, with Craig
Wood, U. S. Open champion, in
third place at 316.
Hogan has finished in the money
in 53 consecutive tournaments. He
has the Hershey Open, the Tam-O
Shanter, at Niles, 111., the Atlantic
City, N. J., Open; the Heart Invi
tation at Philadelphia and the
Providence, R. I. Open remaining
to catch Snead’s all-time record
of money winning in a year—$19,
908 set in 1938.
Angel Likes ’em Tough;
Cowboy Is The Answer
The giant Swedish Angel likes
’em big and rough. The man whose
face is his fortune clashes with
Cowboy Luttrall in the feature of
the crack wrestling bill at Thalian
hall tomorrow night and the' erst
while cowhand figures to make
things plenty interesting for the
Angel.
The Angel is a powerful fellow,
a towering giant with the strength
of two ordinary wrestlers. He can
wrestle, has a flock of fancy holds,
but still he prefers to mix it in
rough and tumble combat at which
Cowboy Luttrall excells. The scrap
figures to be rough as a peace con
ference.
Jack Pfefer, the most successful
of all present day promoters, a
fellow who has made more than a
million smackers out of the cauli
bower industry, discovered the
Swedish Angel when the latter was
strong man for a circus, signed
him to a long term contract on a
hunch. And the Swedish Angel
has made plenty of money for
Pfefer.
While he has a face that would
stop a clock, the Angel has a mag
nificently proportioned body, has
posed for several sculpture pieces.
He moves about the ring with
amazing speed, and when he shoots
his forearm punch to his rival’s
chin the latter invariably goes
down.
Cowboy Luttrall was selected
from a list of 23 available grapp
lers ar the one best qualified to
give the big Swede a terrific bat
tle. Cowboy got a little too tough
and was disqualified for extreme
roughness on the last bill. Things
always happen when Cowboy is in
the ring.
The masked Red Shadow tangles
with Mark Hoesly in the support
ing bout and this one also figures
to be a lively encounter. The mys
tery man used the backbreaker to
conquer popular Sailor Barto Hill
last week. He is now on a winn.
ing streak, but ragged Mark
Hoesly may break the Shadow’s
string of wins.
Both bouts will be two out of
three falls, the Angel-Luttrall
brawl limited to an hour, 15 min
utes and the Red Shadow-Hoesly
bout limited to an hour. Doors
will be opened at 7 o’clock, action
starting at 8:30.
The card appears to be stronger
than the average and promoters
are hopeful of a big turn-out.
