TAR HEELS AND CAVALIERS WILL FIGIOM Boxing Team to Encounter Vir ginia at Charlottesville; Heels Defeated Southern Champions Last Year. v For the third time' in as many week-ends Coach Crayton Rowe and the Carolina leatherpushers journey into Virginia territory. The Tar Heel coach and eleven men left by special bus Friday morning' to take some limbering-up exercises before taking on the Southern Champions of the University of Virginia tonight. " Without a doubt the engagement of the evening will be the hardest for the wearers pf the Tar Heel colors of the entire season. The Old Dominion club has been an outstanding one since the introduction of the scrambled ear in dustry there. They walked off in fine style with the Conference tournament last year and Virginia supporters are doping them to repeat the act '' at Charlottesville this -season. That re mains to be seen. - . Coach Rowe's maulers are no slouches at the manly art themselves. With what appears to be the best team in history the Heels are training for the Virginia match. Last season the Carolina boxers trimmed the Virgin ians 5 to 2. This was the first time that a Southern team had turned the trick and the third time that it had ever been done. Colgate " whipped them in 1924, the year that team won the national collegiate crown, and Peen State ekedout a. victory in '26, the season they wpnnational honors. Quite a record for any team! But the Tar Heels broke it up once. The Old Dominion glove slingers have two All-Southern men to tie their star to this year. These veter yans are Frank Gilmer, lightweight, and Virgil Kelly, bantamweight. With these luminaries as headliners, La Rowe has practically a veteran team to vie with them'.1 Carolina also has two all-southern members as her quota. Captain AEd Butler and "Ox" Shuford are the wearers of this hon or. Butler fights in the welterweight class and Shuford the heavy.' Neither of these have ever been defeated in collegiate boxing circles. Charlie Brown, middleweight and runner-up for an all-Southern position last season, is the .only other veteran on the Tar Heel squad. These three came through with victories over Virginia last year and are booked to repeat. Ad Warren and Carpenter turned in the other Carolina victories over the Charlottesville team. ' The following men survived the final tryouts previous to the trip and will make the Virginia trip: Coley and Bobbitt, bantams; White, feather weight; Allen, lightweight; Captain Butler, welterweight; Brown and Mill er, middleweights; Sapp, lightheavy; "Ox" Shuford, heavy.

Ehrhart of Jackson, N. C. Carolina's Hopes for Success in Crucial Game Are Pinned on Teamwork; Price and Van story Expected to Be in Lineup The winner of the state basketball title for the year will be-settled to night when Carolina plays host to Duke in the Tin Can for the first , meeting of those two teams this year. For Duke there is more than the championship at stake. Winning to night would break a long line of loss es to teams from Carolina in basket ball and football as well. The boys over in Durham had a . victory all doped out during the fall when they met the Heels in football. A tri umphant invasion of the Hill by their victorious student body after the game was all arranged, but it so happened, as their Chronicle explained, that their team was "in no frame of mind . to play ball" and so lost. The Meth odists are, now confident that , their basketball team can do what . their football team couldn't. The Blue Devils are touted by the press of the state as being an aggre gation of stars that can trouble any team. This quartet of sophomore flashes, Jankoskis, Farley, Werber, and Duke, made quite an impression on the fast freshman quint of last season which won the state title. Their team has won all of its games this year. L The fact that Wake For est lost its game there by a much larger margin than it did when play ed by Carolina in Raleigh causes con siderable optimism in Durham. Carolina's hopes for success depends on its much talked of team workA al though two. men, on it were consider ed the best" in the South after being seen in 'action against the best teams of the South in the annual conference tournament in Atlanta. Carolina's.; two guards, Dodderer and Morris, have proved to be a very effective, check to several "aspiring high scor ers already this season. If Price and Vanstory are in shape to play to night, Coach Ashmpre will have four forwards who are a serious threat to any opponent. Vanstory was a reg ular forward last year, but has been out for the last several weeks be cause of illness. His place has been very ably held , by Henry Satterfield, whose only drawback is lack of length. However, since Duke claims to have the smallest team it has had in years, he should not be bothered so much by this short coming. . In all games with teams that Duke has also played, except Wake" Forest, the White f Phantoms have made a more impressive record. They over came Georgia with six point lead, and Duke had to play two extra periods the following night to -win from them by two points. State lost a hard game to Duke in Durham by three points, and Carolina came out ten ahead of State in Raleigh . the past Wednesday. From comparative scores, the Hillr ians have the edge, but such reckon ing is undependable. They have one loss to their credit, losing one of three games to Tulane during their trip of the first of the season. It is recognized that the game to night is the most important one of the state this year, and that two good teams are playing.
