JINX WORKS ON CAROLINA TEAM ON EMERSON FIELD Beautiful Aerial Attack Features Tar Heel Play in Latter Part of Game. STATISTICS MISLEADING Sapp, Donahoe, Whisnant, Ward, Schwartz, and Ferrell Star for University Team. The flying feet of a diminuitive Wake Forest halfback and the educat ed toe of a Deacon quarterback tipped the dope bucket into a succession of somersaults and loop-the-loops last Saturday afternoon, and in the scram ble that followed the white-jerseyed Baptist brethren loped off with a fourth consecutive victory over the Tar Heel grid warriors. x A field goal off Ralph James' trusty toe and Johnny Coxe's seventy-eight yard sprint over the goal line with a Tar Heel fumble in the opening . semester of play accounted for the Wake Forest points in the 9 to 8 win. The Tar Heels counted their double quartet of markers at the two ex tremes of play, for the first two points came on the fourth play of the game after exactly two minutes of time had elapsed and the final touch down in the . closing four minutes. Those first -two points resulted when' Phifer passed the ball over. Coxe's head in the Wake Forest backfield and Odell Sapp, Tar Heel end, rushed in on Coxe and threw him behind the goal line. " r - - - The final touchdown of the game resulted from a beautifully executed aerial attack, with Albert Whisnant heaving the pigskin for the Tar Heels. In possession of the ball on Wake Forest's 45 yard line, Coach "Chuck" Collins sent Patterson to right end to replace McDaniel. Patterson im mediately earned his spurs by snag ging one of Whisnant's heaves for a thirty yard gain. On the next play Billy Ferrell pulled another down over the Goal line for the score. yuo&ime ue m prospect, a Wake Forest end leaped high and smacked Captain Morehead's at-1 tempted placement kick down. The Statistics Tale And therein lies . the story of the victory! 'Twas a victory scored over a Tar Heel eleven 'that amassed eleven first downs agains$ three one of those three on a Carolina penalty and rolled up 303 yards from scrim mage against 96 for the Baptists. Aye! Those statistics tell an inter esting tale. Sad to say they don't count in the scoring, for if they did the disciples of "Chuck" Collins would have another victory to their credit. The figures of the ' yardage and first downs are only the beginning of the tale the figure books tell. The Deacons only penetrated the Carolina line for a total of 28 yards during the entire sixty minute setto. Of that gain, they earned only three yards during the opening half, and 'twas in that half the damage was done. Around the ends they had but little (Continued on page three) Crowd Hears Koch Read Sunday Night Shakespeare's Comedy Pleases Audi ence; Mrs, Pat Winston Plays Accompaniment.
