PAGE TWO Deacs Point Activities To Elon Contest Wake Forest College, Sept. 9. With only one week remaining be fore their first game of the season against Elon in Greensboro Satur day night, the Deacons of Wake For est are going forward rapidly now with their workouts and Coach Pea T head Walker has said that he expects to have his boys ready for the en counter. At this stage of practice, the Dea cons seem to be just about lined up for their first engagement v. ith Elon. John Jett is at left flank. Capt. Rupert Pate will be ..ext to Jett at tackle. Carl GivJer se ms “in” at left gaurd, and Butch Clark is the center. On the right side of the Deacon line, Louis Trunzo is a certainty for guard. At the tackle will be big Clem Crab tree and out on the end Paul \\ a ivers is tne No. 1 man. The backfield will shape up with Red Mayberry at quarterback; Mar shall Edward and Jim Ringgold, halves; and John Polanski at full back. Pre-season forecasters had pre dicted .first string }•■ i ons for end Eddie Woolbert. halfback Tony Gal 16vich, and gilarci Tom Tingle, but these players reported late and have not yet been able to oust the - boys who filled their places befov came into camp. Ot course, there's still a week before the initial game and- a possibility that some changes will be made by Coach Walker in the starting lineup. The Deacons are getting plenty of pass defense work in their daily ses t sions. They fear the two fine Elon * triple backs—Lee Fones and Charlie ! Pittman—and are hoping to ba‘ down ’ their tosses. Too. the Wake Forest » linemen are getting their share of ' drills in rushing the throwers, and | this may ultimately prove Wake’s i salvation, should the backs ■ >l l down in their defensive assignment. The best pass defense anyway, is a big . hard charging iine that doesn’t give 1 the passer an extra second to get | loose from the pigskin and the Deac . coaches may operate a great deal by * this theory. ‘ Battles for first line reserve posts . are waging at most of the positions. ‘ The ends are Pat Geer, Bit* Yanden ‘ Dries, John Barrett, Herb Cline: “tackles, Ted Kunkel, Gastcn Grimes, and Larry Pivec: guard Ka- I priva and Beverly Moser; backs, » Fred Welch. Molly Layion. Pete Hor * chak. Flash Dowdy, Bill Eutsler and l Joe Kuchinski. 1 Sophomores on the No. 1 club are ' John Polanski and Carl Givler. Capt. ‘ Pate and Crabtree are seniors, and u others are juniors. Geer. Vanden Dries. Kunkel, Pivec, Kapriva, Layton. Welch, Eutsler, Dmvdy and Kuchinski seem to be the best reservists. i * ■ - - I f Heels Begin Tapering Off * For Openers t t- ! ■ ' Chapel Hill, Sept. 9.—The Caro . lina football squad showed genera! * improvement ail along the line as the i * second week’s drills closed today ■ but it was the ends who set the pace ; up front. t Blocking, tackling, and snagging passes like veterans, Paul Severin and Jim Mallory, the two 180-pound lettermen, have been flashing mid - reason form.

And if and when the third v-d- ! : eran > Chuck Kline, gets over his baseball injury, the Tar Heels should ■ be well fixed at the flanks. , Although lacking experience for ; the most part, the guards have also - been coming along, but the short age of material at tackle and center * remained a problem today. Bob ; Smith and Gates Kimball are the ' only proven veterans back at these * positions, and Smith wa l- on the sick - list until yesterda; id won’t be ; ready for heavy work for some time.

YAaJK££S ial (92fT lowa Sports Scribe Does Well In Comparing Events John O'Donnell, sports editor of Davenport Democrat and Leader, of Davenport, lowa, has written the following in his “Sport Chats”, in comparing happenings' in America with tnose in Europe, which is printed becauseof its timeliness: The difference: Over there they drill to die. Over here we piay to live. They march into trench. We march Into stadiums. They pay off on murder. We pay off on base hits. They have a mouthpiece. We have a megaphone. The “E” in their book of rules stands for blood. In ours it means baseball. They rattle the sword. We rattle the bat. Every batter who steps to the plate has two strikes on him over there. lie can never be even with the pitcher. Over there it is a steel hel met. Over here it is a peaked cap. Applause of the enemy is punishable by death. Over here the rival pitcher gets as much credit as the home town twirl er. Over there they never reach home base. Over here we can , touch all the bags when the ball goes over the fence. Over there they are signed up Over here we sign up. They die when drafted. Over here the draft means a promotion.' There are only two leagues over there, the rulers and the people. We have the majors, the Double- A, the A, B, C, and D leagues, to -ay nothing of the semi-pros and the amateurs. Over there they are ordered Over here we barter. The firing squad over there means a gang of men pointing guns at a doomed soul. Over here it means a group of .800 hitters. Over there they have a play thing—a gas mask. Over here we play with a bah and a bat. Theif tjNm..n..Ger fhei* ero (for publication) is «- ch :ctionist. Or rs is the home run king. Mr. John Public is the for gotten man over there. Over here he is the dictator. They swing at human heads. We swing at horsehides. They collect on force. We col lect on class. The shadow of their boogie man du-kens every door. The batting averages carried in the papers con cern nits made by bayonets. The won and lost column tells the story of defeats only. The leading pitcher is not classi fied as a southpaw or a right hand er. He is the whip artist who lashes those who fail to bow to his will. Over there a defense is barb-wire entanglements concealing guns ticketed to blow bodies to bits. , They put 55,000 into a pub lic square to kid themselves into the hysteria of war. We put 55,000 in a park to applaud youngsters vieing with veterans in good clean fun. Their umpires are dictators who write the rule book. We have umpires who follow the rules written by impartial au thorities. They have one-man teams. We call our teams a nine. There are no squawks over there. We have fun squawking if a hamburger costs a nickel too much. They talk about the size of can non balls. We argue about the weight of baseball. “Out” over there means death. Over here it merely means retire ment from the paths. It takes a firing of a church, a smearing of a business house or destruction of human beings to get the headlines across the ocean. Over here the illness of a star first baseman is given the big type. Pain is the keynote over there. In our land they pay off on fun. The leaders are hoggish over there. A 21-year-old farm boy pitching a one-hit game over here rates more notice than a carload of politicians. Insurbordination over there calls for a concentration camp at its best and a bullet at its worst. Over here a SlO fine or three-days’ suspension are met ed out. Over there men are judged like cattle. Over here a player can demand §50,000 a season and get it. A flag means a funeral pro cession over there. Over here it designates a season’s perfor mance well done. They speak of world wars. We speak of world series. Their czar rules with the iron hand. Our ezar dispenses justice and protects the weak. Over there the only boss is the government. Over here we may play with St. Louis one year and the Giants the next. The goose step is the thing over there. Over here all man agers teach the hook slide. Their propaganda is poisonous. Ours is ballyhoo to get the crowd out in the sunshine. They damn. We praise. Persecution of individuals is a national pastime. In our land an OBrien, Ginsberg, Olson and Wy socki get together and make a swell infield. Leader-worship over there is a duty. Over here we rrlix the razz berry with the money and get a dandy combination. They are arrested for thinking. We have our own opinions of um pires and get away with it. Over there! You take it. I don’t want any of it, thanks. I’ll take the land where the triples replace cripples, where the boom of a bat resounds louder than the boom of a can non. I want to see youngsters run ning the bases, not the gaunt lets. My country ’tis of thee—and how! ’ AMERICAN LEAGUE Team: W. L.

Daily Dispatch Bureau, In the Sir Waiter I Intel Raleigh, Sept. 9.—During the first eight months of 1939 there were es tablished in North Carolina 51 new industrial plants, J. T. Anderson, in dustrial engineer and chief of the division of commerce and industry, Department of Conservation and de velopment, said today. In addition 66 new additions to existing plants were built during the same period, Anderson said. The ratio of new establishment is running slightly behind 1938, during which there were 124 new industrial locations in North Carolina and 78 additions to existing plants. Mr. Anderson reports, however, that prospects for the last third of the current year are bright and there is a distinct possibility that the rec ord of 1938 will be equalled or ex ceeded. Os the 50 new industries—2B were established in the first four months of this year, 23 during the four months between May 1 and August 31. Os the 66 additions —39 were es tablished in the first four months, 27 in the second. Os the new plants 29 may be grouped as textile, as follows: dyeing and finishing 5; hosiery 16; knit goods 2; cotton yarn 2; silk and rayon 1; and miscellaneous 1. Os the Other 22 the types follow: flour, feed and meal 1; food and kin dred products 6; furniture 1; paper and printing industries 7; mining 1; woodworking 1; and miscellaneous 5. Os the additions, 60 were to tex tile plants, of which 30 were hosiery. Other were dyeing and finishing 5; knit goods, 3; silk and rayon 5; cot ton goods 8; cotton yarn 5; and mis cellaneous 4. Minors Held 10 Pet. Lost Licenses Daily Dispatch Bureau, In the Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, Sept. 9.— More than ten per cent of the last 225 persons to lose their driving licenses in North Carolina were minors, according to figures of the Highway Safety Di vision. . , , Exact figures for the last two weeks show 229 revocations, with 25 minors listed among those from whom the right to drive was taken, giving a percentage of practically 11. As a matter of fact, this is probably below the true percentage of minors as ages for only some 175 of the 225 were listed and it is likely that a mong the fifty odd whose ages were not given there were some minors. Os the 25 under 21 who lost their permits, all but one were convicted of driving while drunk and there exists a possibility that the 25th was EASTERN THREAT By Jack*Sords + _ o«ie oFitteeAsrS ' K ' r * 1 L£APial6 GotSBRS AaIP #f $ \\ * ~.

A. Fetzer, Director of Athletics. Fordham is being ranked as the leading Rose Bowl contender in the East this year. Texas Christian, which gave the football word Sam my Baugh, Davey O’Brien, and the aerial circus, puts out some of the strongest and most colorful elevens in the country. The third new team on the 1940 card is Richmond University, which will take the place of V. P. I. Ford ham will replace Pennsylvania, and Texas Christian will replace New York University! This will be the first time North Carolina has ever met Texas Chris tian, which is Coach Ray Wolf’s Alma Mater, but the Tar Heels have played the mighty Fordham Rams twice previously, and both games have produced brilliant play and keen competition. Fordham won at Chapel Hill in 1937 by 14-0 after a great game in which the Tar Heels would have also taken away ff!r the same cause, though the records show that it was “driving after* license revoked,” leav ing it uncertain what caused the first revocation. For the first of tne two weeks covering the revocation of the 229 licenses, were listed 15 minors, of whom 14 were driving drunk. A dozen were convicted in legally dry counties, only two in counties with ABC stores. The second week’s fig ures show only ten minors losing their licenses, with seven of them for offenses committed in prohibition territory—Alexander 3, Mecklenburg Yadkin, Rutherford and Pender 1 each. Three were from ABC coun ties—one each from Craven, Lenior and Wake.

Ellington is a Middleburg boy, and made quite a record for pitch ing while attending high school there. Errors on the part of his team mates permitted the losers to score two runs.
