One of the most important games on the Tar Heel schedule will be played this afternoon when Coach Duke Duncan's aggregation take the Wake Forest De mon Deacons into camp at Wake For est. The contest will practically decide the Tar Heels' chances towards state championship honors, and the Duncan men are expected to put up a stiff scrap before they concede the game to the Deacon's win column. ' It is not definitely known just who will occupy the mound for the Tar Heels this afternoon since "Duke" persists in upsetting all predictions made by snorts scribes, but it is thought that because of the fact that "Lefty" Westmoreland and BUI Poyner have both had their turn on the hillock during the past week, Odell Sapp will probably receive the hurling assignment today. Sorrell.ithe Deacon's star moundsman. worked against the Duke University Blue Devils Tuesday and it is not thought that he will occupy the mound against the Duncanmen today. Eliminating the "speed ball artist" from the affair, the Deacon's choice for the mound position is doubtful However, should Sorrell get the assignment for the Deacons, the Tar Heel "murderer's row" will have Just heaps of fun connecting with his fast ones for extra base knocks. When "Hat" Hatley, Mackle, "Moose" Tenney, Bob Sides, and Bill Sharp face Sorrell at the rubber, it will be a great contest The Deacons handed the Blue Devils an awful walloping Tuesday. While Sor rell was holding the Duke sluggers to two lone bingles, both off the bat of Saunders, his team-mates were knocking three Duke hurlers all over, the lot for a total of eighteen safe swats which counted for' eleven markers.
