Johannes Hoops Lecture v 3:00 P.M. Room 110 Murphy Hall Carolina vs. Georgia Tech 4:00 P. M. Emerson Field VOLUME XXXIV Duncanites Lose To Georgia Tech Score Of 10-5 CHAPEL HILL, N. C, TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1926 NUMBER 76 By MON AFTERNOON Heavy Hitting Features Game Mackie Sensation With Stick; TAR HEELS WEAK AT BAT Westmoreland Occupies Hillock for Carolina With Edwards Opposing Twirler for Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jacket baseball aggrega tion from Georgia Tech handed the Tar Heels a 10 to 5 defeat on Emerson Field yesterday in a game filled with pretty fielding and hard hitting by both teams. The Techmen played a little steadier on the field, and thereby hangs the tale. Seven miscues were contribut ed by the Duncanites while four bobbles were made by the Yellow Jackets. Mackie,' the fleet Tar Heel right field er, wins the batting honors of the day with a triple and two singles out of four trips to the plate, while Wycoff, the Tech center gardener, ran him a close second with a double and two singles out of four trips. Angley, the hard-hitting Yellow Jacket receiver, smashed out a single, a triple, and a four-bagger out of five times at bat. Fielding honors for the contest go to the entire outfields of both teams, the Yellow Jackets probably having a little the better of the argument The gard eners roamed the fields far and wide and pulled theni in from all angles and all positions. "Kirby" Hatley made a beautiful play of Brewer's double in the fifth to hold Crowley on the third sack. Besides handling himself unusually well in the field, Hatley obtained two safe swats, both of the one base variety, out of four trips to the rubber. Wycoff, the Techman center gardener, also con tributed several thrills to the game by his running catches of balls hit to the center field. - Edwards, hurling for the Techmen, pitched a superb brand of baseball. He . gave one free pass to the first sack, and did not strike out a man, but he kept the Tar Heels-sluggers hitting in the hands ' of his" teammates throughout the affair, and was especially effective in the pinches. ; Westmoreland, who worked for the Duncanites, contributed a fair brand of (Continued on page four) COKER CONTINUES WORK ON CAMPUS Trustees Appropriate $5,000 to Make Campus Beautiful.

Mackie, diminutive Carolina out fielder, playing his first year on the Varsity, has been hitting the old apple lately with a consistency that is really astounding. His batting has featured almost every Carolina baseball game this year. Home runs and doubles are his favorites. HOOPS' SEMINAR COMMENCES TODAY Goethe's Faust and Byron's Manfred Will be the Topics.

I. track athletes Saturday at Blacksburg by the score of 87 5-6 to 38 1-6. The Tar Heels ran off with twelve first places out of four teen events.. The furious wind blowing was respon sible for a few good records and just as many bad ones. Carolina's real strength was in the hurdles and the dash es, and Mother Nature, as if conscious of the fact, helped the runners in these events along from the rear rather than slowed them up. McPherson, Carolina's premier dash man, set a new Carolina record in the 220 yard dash, when he negotiated the distance in the flying time of 21.5 seconds breaking his own record of 22 flat that he set last year. The wind had lulled a great deal when Mc Pherson ran his record dash, and it is hoped ' that 'University authorities will accept his time as a new record. Zack Williams Carolina shot putter, also estab lished a new Carolina record for the sec ond time in two days. At Virginia Thursday he busted the old shot record (Continued from page four) TAR HEELS MEET YELLOW JACKETS Play Second of Two-Game Se ries Today at Four. EXPECT CHANGE IN FORM PLAYMAKER READING GIVEN BY MACMILLAN Fulcher is Slated to do Mound Duty for Dukemen. 9 This afternoon at four o'clock the Tar Heels and the Georgia Techmen will plash on Emerson field for the second of a two-bame series on the home lot. By virtue of their ten to five victory over. the Tar Heels in yesterday's affair, the Yellow Jackets have the edge of the dope, but should Fulcher,' who will in all probability be "Duke' Duncan's choice on the mound, have his balls breaking nicely, and should the Tar Heel infield work as smoothley as it did against the Cavaliers on Emerson field last Friday, the tale might be read different after this afternoon's affair than It did last night. , The . Yellow Jackets beyond a doubt have one of the best teams in the South. Reeves on short, Moreland on second, and Angley behind the plate should be enough to bolster any infield to the high est point. All of these players exhibit a rare form of baseball, while they are (Continued on " pago four) FRIENDSHIP COUNCIL HAS BANQUET FRIDAY H. D.

One of the most elaborate entertain ments of the year was the formal ban quet given in the dining hall of the Carolina Inn by the Freshman Friend ship Council Friday night. After a four course dinner, H. D. Meyer, of the Sociology Department, delivered the address of the evening, his subject being "Leadership." " Bob Harper, President of the Fresh man Council, acted as toast-master for the occasion, and continuing from his speech of welcome throughout the two hours, the guests were given a program of skits, toasts, wit and humor. "Stumpy" Daughtridge paid a tribute to the . "fairness, sweetness, and wit" of the young ladies present, in his 'Toast to the Girls;" and the extemporaneous response of Miss Emily Markham was equally appropriate.

GIRLS ADD COLOR TO GAME Sapp Pitches Excellent Game for Dun canites Until Relieved in Eighth Record-Breaking Crowd. Before a record-breaking crowd esti mated at 6,200, the Tar Teels went down in defeat by the attack of the Virginia Cavaliers in Greensboro Satur day to the tune of 6 to 2. The game which was one of the most exciting that has been played by the Tar Heel aggre gation this season, gave the Virginians the series by a 2 to 1 count. : Sapp and Darlington, hurlers for the two teams, worked one of the prettiest games of the year. Thirteen safe swats were registered by' both teams, the Tar Heels getting eight of this total. Odell Sapp allowed the Cavaliers only four hits but dished out five free passes to first. Ills balls had the break to them that kept the Virginians guessing, how ever, they were able to solve them when hits were needed, and all four of the saftiesr registered counted ' for runs. Fred Darlington, who occupied the mound for the Cavaliers, allowed the Tar Heels eight safeties, but It was not until the final frame that the Duncan ites registered in the run column. Four baggers by Mackie and Webb, prevented a shut-out for the Cavalier pitching ace. j The batting honors of the day were won by Mackie with two doubles and a home run out of four trips to the rub ber. His first swat came In the fourth frame after Sides had rolled out, pitcher to first, and Hatley had whiffed at three, but he died on the second sack when Tom Young skied out to center His second double came in the seventh stanxa. He was first hitter to face Darl ington in that Inning, but he died on the second sack again when Young grounded out to short, Webb flew out to center, and Dodderer rolled out to third. His homer came in the ninth inning and pro duced the first Tar Heel marker. Webb, Tenny, and Hatley were the only three Tar Heels who connected with Darlington's offering for safe . swats.
