Jan. 29.—Who will stop Carolina's Glamack? is the oig question going around the Southern Conference this week. Will it be Herb Cline or Big John Jett at Wake Forest Tuesday night or all-American Banks McFadden at Clemson Saturday? Or will it oe an off-night and Glamack himself? And • »n the other sine 01 the ledger, can Glamack either stop or hold down these other ace. of tne hardwood? Basketball is one of the most un predictable as well as lastest of fea»v.es. but the answer promises two of the prettiest games and center duels in the most crucial week's play ti) date for the unbeaten Tar Heels. Carolina's 6-foot 5-inch center scored 233 points in the first 13 games, or an average of 18 a night. His high was 28 against :\T. C. State, j k.nd his low was'S against Catawoa i and Citadel, when he played only a i few minutes. What's more. 3ig George has made 'em when the chips were down and the Phantoms needed points. Take the last Wake Forest game. With two minute? to go Herb Cline, the Deacs' great guard, led them out in front 51-50. Every time the Tar Heels got the ball thereafter they turned and passed C ;v?.ck. And Big George obliged with two field goals to win 54-51. Ciine, the 6-foot 5-inc'n Jett, and Pete Davis each took a hand trying j t;> hold down Glamack that night. { but the big fellow still collected IT points. However. Glamack has yet to face Clemson's all-American Bonnie j Banks McFadden this year, and that j may be another story. One reason his partisans think no- j body will stop Glamack except j George himself is that the big fel low, who ironically is slightly near- I sighted, depends mainly on hard, j difficult shots rather than the short easy crips, whicn he often misses. The fact that other Tar Heeis turn j to Big George in a pinch like the ' Wake Forrest game is anything but u : reflection. They know he is the . nr- ' est scorer in the lineup, and the I hardest man to cover, and knowing j this they naturally "feed" the man ! wjfth the best chance to score. Tn fact, this is one of the biggest i reasons for the White Phantoms re- I markable undefeated record to date. It's one for all and all for one, and Paul Severin, 'mmy Howard, and ' the rest are jit: as valuable playing ! the floor and ••feeding" Glamack as I the big boy is ringing the bell.

YESTERDAY: Rrcnf tolls Romany iif> is breaking; off his i-npictfiin'nt lo marry Myra. Jfo urges Romany to •ntor the studio contest for Miss Television. CHAPTER 15 THE NEXT afternoon Terry telephoned. Romany stiffened when she heard his voice. He did not sound sober, even in the few words it took for him to ask if Cholly was there. Romany told him coldly that Cholly was not. And she added: "And you'll be doing- a great favor if you don't call here again. I'm sure Cholly agrees with me. She doesn't want to see you now, or ever." The singer muttered something under his breath, thickly, and hung up. For a long time afterward Romany could not shake her un pleasant feeling of worry. She tried to tell herself it was silly, and got up from her reading to wash out some of her lingerie because she wanted to keep busy Her chief fear was that Terry would come out and cause an un pleasant scene at the apartment. Of course they wouldn't let him in. But he was perfectly capable of standing and ringing the bell till he was taken away by a patrol wagon, or of yelling at the top of his lungs. When Terry O'Rourko was in his cups, no one could pre dict what he was going to do or say. Komany oiamca nerseir laiei iui not telling Terry that Cholly was on the beach, or at a movie. For Terry assumed if she were not with Romany, she was at work. A few minutes later he staggered, dis heveled and red-eyed, into-the Leo Dane Music Store. Chollj .was alone. She gave a little choked cry when she wev.t forward at the sound of the door opening and saw the drunken Terry weaving on his feet. He said thickly: "Hello, swee'heart! Hello, hello, hello! Thish is your li'l ole Terrv. Hi. baby!" Cholly never had seen Terry in such a condition before. Her face grew very white, and in her eyes was^ the fear that she always felt wWfa she saw someone greatly in toxicated. She knew it would be foolish to let Terry know of her fright, so she said as evenly as she could: "Hello, Terry. I—I'm pretty busy—" . He looked around through bleared eyes. Then he laughed thickly. "Sure—oh, sure. Terr'ble busy. Cus-cust'mers all over place." Then he laughed. It was an an gry laugh that sent cold chills all over Cholly. He looked like a mon ster in his wrinkled clothes. She was sure he hadn't even been back to his room to change his shirt ..since they had quarreled. Suddenly | Terry gave another laugh and I , hinged towar.'i her. 5 She stepped behind the counter : Inirriedly. 5 ••So!" he yelled then. "Homey ; " is right. She tole me oil the phone | yon didn't want to .see me." Cholly tried to soothe liim.* "Terry." her voice trembled, "why don't you go to your room and take a nice shower and get dressed up. Then when I'm through ! work I'll come up and we'll go out Sand have dinner.' She was frantic enough to prom ise anything to try to get him out of the store before someone came ! in fo" music, or before Moe Leo re- j I turned. It was so seldom Cholly was alone in the store. I Terry stumbled toward the coun ter and Cholly backed away. "Yeah," he sneered. "Yeah, you'll come to see me, sure! You're lyin'. I know. Romey was right. She's my . fric-n". She tells me the truth. I I ought to shlap—to slap your lyin' j face. You—" "Go! Please go, Terry," Cholly begged, her knees shaking until she could hardly stand. "If Mr. Leo comes back and sees you, we'll both ! get fired." j The words were scarcely out of I her mouth when Leo opened the i door. Terry, turning, laughed ! drunkenly. "My-my fian-fianshay here says | you're gonna fire me. Jus' for com : in' in to slice li'l swee'heart." j Cholly said desperately: I "Oil, Mr. Leo, I—I'm sorry! I've I tried to get Terry to go home." J Leo was a little man, but he stepped forward menacingly: | "Get out of here, you drunken j bum! Get out of my store! I won't have you ruinin' my business! Get ; out of here before I bust you one!" Terry stepped back, doubling his | big fists. "UKay, smart guy: wanna ngnt; C'mon fight!" Moe started for the door. "I wouldn't dirty my hands on | you, you tramp!" There was a policeihan standing at the curb. Cholly almost fainted wlien Leo called to him. The officer, as big Terry, came into the store. Cholly was sure Terry would put up a fight. "Come along, buddy," the officer said soothingly. "Let's take a little walk. Let's go take a little ride and ! buy a little drink," he wheedled. Terry looked uncertain. But Offi cer O'Malley had a way with him when it came to handling tipsy Irishmen. He led Terrv away with out a particle of trouble. Knowing who the singer was, he called an other policeman to take his post and took Terry to his room in a cab. O'Malley helped him to bed, where he lay down mumbling drunkenly an^ passed into a stupor. The officer went out and, closing the door, left Terry to sleep it off. Back at the store Cholly, fought back the tears in her- throat when Moe told her that Terry was through. And she knew he meant what he said when he threatened. "And if that bum ever sets foot in this place again, I'll fire you, too. I ought to let you go now, but I ain't a hard enough guy." There was nothing Cholly could do but swallow her pride and show Moe Leo she was grateful to him for the few dollars a week he paid her. Even that small amount was a God send when she had her mother and brothers and sisters to tmnK 01. Her first inclination was to be come angry because Leo held her in the least, to blame for Terry O'Rourke and his actions. But on second thought she knew she was being unfair. It wasn't ?s though she hadn't known Terry drank too much. However, she had never ex pected to see him looking as though he'd spent a week in the gutter. It was the end, in so far aa Cliolly was concerned. She felt cer tain, down in her heart, she could neither forgive nor trust Terry again. The humiliation boosted her pride, and when Cholly's pride was aroused, there was little hope she would ever weaken in her resolu tion. Even hor great love, which she was so certain would always be long to no one but Terry, would never allow her to be seen with him again. Somehow, Cholly managed to get through the afternoon. Moe, after his opening thrust, said no more. Fortunately the store became very busy, and Cholly was at the piano most of the time. When Cholly arrived home, Rom any knew something had happened. But before she had time to tell what had happened, Romany said: "You've seen Terry?" "Yes." Cholly nodded wearily. "How did you know?" Romany told her about the phone call. "That must have been what Terry was raving about." Cholly sat down, her chin quivering. "Oh, Romey, it was awful. I'm through! I could never look at him again. He—he was like a tramp." Romany blamed herself for the scene at the store. But Cholly re fused to listen to her apology for not using her intelligence. "It doesn't matter." Cholly said dully. "It's all for the best. It had to happen to make me see what a fool I've been." nomany nau a aeep rear mac later Cholly's reaction would be that she must save Terry from himself, and the gutter. But she gave not the slightest hint of this to her. Instead, she agreed with her absolutely that there could be no question as to breaking her engage ment and never being seen with Terry again. When the phone rang, Romany hoped that it would be someone calling to invite her out. She would, of course, take Cholly. But the call was for Cholly. It was Dover Hay worth. Without any hesitation Cholly nodded her little red head affirmatively when he asked her to join a yachting party that eve ning. When she hung up she was pale, but determined. Romany was sur prised and overjoyed at her good sense. A moment later Brent called! and invited her to join the party. Romany had just hung up fromj Brent's call when Bax phoned to in-! vite her to dinner. She told him she1 was going yachting, but invited him to swim the next afternoon.: They would read some more scripts,! Bax said, although he was fast los-j ing hope that Byrd-Crormvell would' ever re-cut "Paradise Is Here " ' That evening Dover called- for: Cholly with his boat, pulling up at the pier back of the apartment.; Nelson had arrived in his car a: few moments before and the three were waiting on the beach when the yacht came into view From the pounds of gayety. it was obvious there was quite a crowd aboard.

Capital Gossip By IIENRY AVERILL Daily Dispatch Bureau, In the Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, .Jan. 29.—The boys vvho make pictures can't sing, 3ill Sharpe, chairman of the Caroiinas Press Photographers Association Gridiron committee, sadly confesses. They tried to sing some of the | ditties written for the Gridiron din j ner to be given here February 4, but it wasn't even good harder shop harmony, Bill admits. And so the Swaneers quartet ol Durham, members of the Nell Hun ter group of singers, will do all the vocalizing for the skits. No more tickets arc available for | the affaii, it has been announced J by Jake Houston of Charlotte, pres j ident of the association. The orig | ina! 200 reservations have been ex | cetd by forty, and Houston says no more could be accepted. The '"Paul V. McNutt-for-Pres ident Eastern Headquarters" indi cates a sad lack of accuracy on a j map of eastern states ^ketcned on the back of its letter paper. Says the letter-nead: 'Eastern States and Electoral Votes" "Maine 10, New Hampshire 8," and so on down the line to "North Carolina :26". Now any school child knows, or •ought to know, that these figures are completely and entire inaccur ate. North Carolina has, for ln instances, 13 electoral votes, or just half as many as the McNutt uta tionery assigns it, and so it is with all "the others. It's obvious, of course, that the McNutters are thinking in terms of delegates to the Democratic conven tion, but it would seem that so prominent an organization as one seeking to elect a President of the United States would be a bit more •?arefui. There have been so many delays that news men are beginning to be very dubious about any report that .1 gubernatorial candidate will an nounce; but it really does seem that this week should get the lagt.
