Saturday, March 9, 1929 THE TARHEEL Pase Threa n i l ! i 3 UVI 3 f i 1 Ccmo) 0 1 1 ; 1 D s- TAR HEEL STARS RETURN FOR TILT Captain Schwartz and Other Old-Timers to Don Uniforms Against Material Molded from Freshman Team of Last Year. Captain Harry Schwartz and other Tar Heel stars who finished their grid careers last fall will once more don their moleskins as the "Monogram Men" o f the Tar Heel squad play the "Youngsters" in Kenan Stadium this afternoon. This classic, carded for 2:30 o'clock, is the annual feature of the closing of winter football maneuvers of the Tar Heels, and is expected to produce plenty of real action. Interest in this game is manifested by people, through out the state, and many outsiders are expected to attend.''' . Football fans of the Old 'North State saw the Tar Heels lick Duke 14 to 7 last December and mourned the passing of such brilliant figures as Schwartz, along with others, like Odell Sapp, Sam Presson, Earl Dona hoe, Shine Howard and Bud Shuler, for all of them were topping their grid careers. However most of them will wear "Monogram" colors against the Tar Heel "Youngsters" today. " This feature of the annual closing the winter football maneuvers of the Tar Heels promises to produce a real struggle. The Youngsters" will be molded mostly from the freshman squad of last fall and those rookie stars know what it is to be undefeat ed. They will be out to keep their spotless record and to defeat Captain Harry Schwartz and his veterans in their very last football game. As this game is always played for the benefit of the "Monogram Club," a charge of fifty cents will be made. The line-up: "MoTinPTam Men" " Naw Mpti" Position ...........: ..........

McAllister GOLFERS TO USE KENAN STADIUM Action of Authorities Makes Link Game a Recognized Sport at University. MOUND TALENT IS DARK SPOT ONTHE DIAMOND Many of Last Year Freshman Twirlers Have Dropped "Out Of School; All Other Positions Will Have Hot Competition. Winston and' Wilmington Fight for Title Tonight -s Three Carolina Grid Players Are Given' Watches By Journal Kenan Stadium will find use this spring as the practice ground of the Carolina golf team. With the utili zation of the stadium as a practice field, golf ; takes its place as a rec ognized sport. In ', addition to pro viding the stadium for a practice field the athletic authorities have placed Kenfield, tennis coach, as supervisor of the team. Kenfield will devote part of his time to tennis and part to golf . The addition of Kenfield will mean that the sport will rank along with other minor sports, at the University. An unusually attractive schedule is to be played by the linkmen this spring. Beginning early in April the golfers will play dual matches with Davidson, Duke, Georgia Tech, and will enter the state championship matches in Greensboro at the Sedge field course during the latter part of the month. May will find the team opposing Sewanee, Duke, and Washington and Lee, besides participating in the Southern Conference matches which will be held in Asheville. ' Last year the team won the State championship from Duke in - Greens boro, but according to information from the Duke camp ,.the Durham team will be much stronger in the sport this spring. . Practice will be held Monday after noon in Kenan Stadium at 4 o'clock. Practice will be held three days a week during the spring quarter. June Adams has been selected as manager of the team. A ladder will be arranged and Matches for positions on the ladder will be played as last year. Now that the basketball season is completed the call for baseball can didates will be issued by Coach Ash- more in the near future. Captain Lufty has been emphasizing the need for prospective pitchers to limber their arms during the winter prac tice in the Tin Can and quite a few twirlers have been taking daily work outs. However no real practice will get under way until the weather per mits the squad to get in some out door work. - Pre-season dope seems to point ' to a strong aggregation this spring if Coach Ashmore is successful in un covering some latent mound talent somewhere on the Hill. As things now look there will be only one let- terman back to fill - the hurling role. Jim Ball, who worked the full route in some of the minor games last year and was used as a relief hurler in others, is the only man back with much experience. Ray Farris got into a few games near the end of the season last spring and on the basis of his showing then, bids fair to develop into a creditable mound performer. The Tar Baby nine last season produced quite a few good hurlers but none of these are in school at present. Edwards, lanky speedball artist, has dropped out for a while. Johnny Hurt who was another fresh man star is not back in school this year. The other positions seem likely to be well' filled since there is a great deal of material from last year's squad and some good men coming up from Coach Cerney's freshmen. First base, so well covered by Ed Mackie, is left open by his absence. However, Phil Jackson and Billy Brown, both candidates last ,year will probably come through td make the competi tion hot for this sack. Ed Burt, a creditable performer at, the keystone sack for the last two seasons will be back. Pete Wyrick who starred at this post with the freshmen last year will be out to get the job. With these two men on hand there should be little worry about this position. Henry Satterfield can be counted up on to cover the shortfield unless some mighty ' capable performer turns up. Captain Lufty will be Jback out for his third base job with competition being furnished by Burgess White head, leading hitter and fielding star on last year's frosh. Jimmy Maus, all-state catcher last year will prob ably hold down this position with Henry House and Ellis Fysal as un derstudies. The outfield will find Tom Coxe and Bob Jessup back in their places in center and right re spectively. ' The other outfield post will be filled by Magner or some oth er of the , crowd of capable fielders on hand.1, While the above is just a brief sum mary of "what the prospects look like at present, there is great likelihood of there being some shifting done before Coach Ashmore sends his 1929 diamond performers into their first battle. Gobbler Grappler r Made JPoint Kecora , At the end of the football sea-, son of last fall, the Atlanta Journal selected teams from the most outstanding men of the Northern and Southern Confer ences and invited them to Atlanta to participate in a game between the two sections. Due to the "Georgia Tech" eleven going to the Rose Bowl, interest subsided in this venture and the game was called off. Football fans will be interested in knowing that Harry Schwartz, Odell Sapp, and Ray Farris were among those selected. Since the game was cancelled, watches were sent to those players having been invited. These three mem bers of the Tar Heels will be presented theirs this afternoon immediately preceding the game between the "Monogram Men" and the "Youngsters."

"Wee Willie" Davis, 230-Pounder, Scored Maximum Point Total Past Season Blacksburg, Va., March 8. Cadet William G. Davis, popularly known as "Wee Willie" in spite of his 230 pounds and his six feet four inches set a new scoring record this winter for V. P. I. wrestlers by rolling up 35 points in seven meets. Wrestling in the unlimited class, Davis made a perfect record in winning by a fall over every opponent. This feat amassed the maximum score possible in seven bouts and made him the first perfect scorer in Gobbler mat history. The Tech giant wrestled in only five of the seven meets. He' pinned to the mat the shoulders of Stout of N. C. State; Davenport, of Virginia; Thompson, of North Carolina; Davis, of Duke; and Crane, of U. S. Naval Academy, 'and won from Virginia Military Institute and Washington and Lee University by default. Davis is a junior and has another year of competition.

The Southern Fencing Conference champions of the University of South Carolina, meeting one of the few de feats of several victorious seasons, were decisively beaten by North Caro lina swordsmen in the Tar Heels' first intercollegiate meet of the year in the Tin Can Thursday night. A three-man foils team composed of Glickman, Hatem, and Esteps, re presented North Carolina, and Reese, Riley, and Cardwell of the Game cocks were the contestants in the night's . program. As the clashes were under Conference rulings, Hend lin,' and Fred, and Digby Wardlaw were disqualified, being first " year men. These three compose the Tar Heel sabre team, and by mutual con sent of the two University squads, only the .f oils matches were listed as official. . Captain Reese of South Carolina, ehampion of the Southern Fencing Conference and many other openncl private meets, and who is herald ed as one of the finest fencers in the South today, flashed excellent form at times, but was defeated in his first match by Herbert Esteps, five" touches to two. He retaliated, how ever, by defeating "Shag" Hatem, in his ensuing encounter, five to . three. Owing to the method used in con ducting Conference meets, every man on each of the teams engages every other man of the opposing squad. Of the nine matches fought Thursday night, North Carolina was victorious in seven. Both of the losing bouts were closely contested, Glickman los ing to Riley,' and Hatem losing to Reese, by the score of five to three. Glickman, captain of the North Carb lina team, probably showed slightly better form than his team-mates, al though the others exhibited a highly finished skill. A very satisfactory gallery was on hand for the matches and the crowd evinced mu'ch interest and enthusiasm in the encounters. Other intercol legiate meets are being contemplated, as the success of the contest Thurs day night warrants further competi tion. " v ; - s Complete scores are as follows, each touch counting as a point for the con testant making it, and five touches winning the bout: State champions for the last time in 1919, ' Winston-Salem high school basketeers will be trying to break a ten-year titleless stretch as they go up against the strong Wilmington New Hanovers here tonight in a bat tle that will determine the 1929 state quint championship.

This year the Tin City team pull ed a big comeback and made every body know they were very much in the running. Defeating High Point in the Western semi-finals, the Win ston-Salem team pulled a sensational rally in the last three minutes of their Western titular game with Charlotte as night. They scored six points and -won, 20-15, to enter the finals with Wilmington. Weaver, rangy center, was one of the big guns in that attack, and he is expected to be a big factor in Win ston's battle with Wilmington here tonight. The Wilmington team, which has three veterans back from last year's title winning aggregation, beside a fine group of new men, arrived on the field this morning, and will take their first workout in the Tin Can this afternoon.

"VIRGINIA". WINS CHMMONSHIP Earned Title By Defeating "Georgia -Tech" in Fast Game 8 to 6.

The final battle proved more or less slow in comparison with the preliminaries that had -carried the rival fives to the Greek letter finals. The Dekes had nosed out the Tau Epsilon Phis 14 to 13 in the semi final of the upper bracket. The Kap pa Sigs came back strong in " the second half to whip the Betas 18 to 15 in the lower draw. Captain Bo Shepherd led" his Kappa Sigma five's attack against the Dekes on Thursday afternoon, but the entire team showed some fast floor work. Charlie Chatham and Snake Willis teamed with the Gray brothers and Julian Fenner to uphold the . Deke standards. They were unable, how ever, to penetrate the " sterling de fense of the Shepardites. The Carr dormitory tossers present one of the fastest outfits seen-this year, 'playing against dormitory com petition. They may not show such , a powerful attack against the frater nity champions, but Captain Shepard and his men have' a hot night just ahead. The Carr quint is built around such stellar performers as Linger feldt, Hewitt and Rape. "Red" Rape, star guard, played with the New Dorms five that won the campus title last winter.

"Virginia" strengthened her lead early in the second half when Wyrick passed to Jackson who ran the remaining distance for. the win ning touchdown. "Tech's" touchdown came in the fourth quarter when Branch, fresh man quarterback, started on an off- tackle run, reversed his field, and sped, almost untouched, across the Virginia" goal. The "Tech" team was .threatening to score as the final whistle blew, the ball being in their possession onthe thirty yard line and their backs going strong. Wyrick, one of last fall's varsity quarterbacks, stood out for the win ning team and his passing and run ning featured the game. Suggs, Gil breath, and Tabb also did stellar work for the "Cavaliers," Fenner and Eskew starred for "Tech." , "Virginia" "Georgia Tech" Position: Tabb ....-.:..
