School Team; Duke
Played Most Time
An all-time hign scoring mark for
a forward on Henderson high school
girls basketball team has been estab
lished by Miss Mary Florence Hough
taling as far as available records re
vealed today. A tabulation of the
season just closed shows that the
stellar forward scored 435 points in
the eighteen games played by Hen
derson.
Coach Bob Harrison, who made
the compilation, stated the young
lady scored 207 field goals, 21 free
throws in the 58 quarters she par
ticipated. A total of 72 quarters were
played by the Henderson team, and
if the forward had played the en
tire time, no doubt her record would
have far exceeded 500 points.
Captain Carolyn Duke led the en
tire squad in time played, working
in 59 periods, with Mary Gene Falk
ner ranking third, with 55 quarters.
Second best scoring honors went
to Hazel Finch, with 97 points in 30
quarters, and third in scoring honors

Tar Heels Won 3 Titles
In Winter Sports Program
Chapel Hill, March 3.—The Uni
versity of North Carolina’s athletic
teams fared pretty well during the
winter season which ends this week.
The Tar Heels won one Southern
Conference championship and two
State titles.
Track and boxing stole the show
in accomplishments. The 1939 track
men brought to the University its
sixth Southern Conference Indoor
championship with an impressive
victory over 11 of the League’s out
standing teams at the recent South
ern Conference indoor games.
Track received an additional boost
when James Davis, Carlton White,
Bill Hendrix, and David Morrison
beat the cream of the nation’s two
mile relay teams at the Millrose
Games in Madison Square Garden.
The victory duplicated the triumph
of the Tar Heels in the 1938 meet.
The varsity boxers made a suc
cessful defense of their state cham
pionship and pulled one of the big
gest surprises of the season by plac

two triumphs in the first .three

team was not up to its usual high
basketball standard and the team
won only 10 of 21 games.

Mussolini wants to add more ter
ritory to Italy’s possessions but he
doesn’t want to go to war about it.
This, it appears, makes him a sort
of pacifascist.
One problem bothering thef British
taxpayer is whether it wouldn’t be
cheaper to go to war than continue
paying Prime Minister Chamber
