Thursday, April 11, 1929 THE TARHEEL Pagre Thrca HEELS TO DEFEND THEIR GOLF TITLE Five Teams to Battle in Second Annual Sedgefield North Caro lina Intercollegiate Championship. The University of North Carolina Trill defend its title to the inter collegiate golfing crown of the state over the course of the Sedgefield Country club the latter part, of the "week, -when at least three and possi bly five leading college teams will assemble to do battle in the second annual Sedgefield North Carolina In tercollegiate Championship. The three teams which have defi nitely entered for the event are the University of North Carolina, Duke University, and Davidson College. Wake Forest may send a team to take part in the mix-up, as may also State College. v While the event is scheduled for performances on each of three days, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the first two days will be devoted "to team matches between the several schools. The big offensive will be held Saturday when the competing teams will play 36 holes for the best aggregate score and school cham pionship honors. In addition to the tropny to oe awarded the winning team, the low medalist and best indi vidual college golfer in Saturday's 36-hole engagement will be awarded a trophy. Last year, the University of North Carolina won the championship crown with an aggregate score of 685 points for the 36 holes, and with a lead of 35 points over' Davidson college, its nearest competitor. Playing for the Blue and White last year was the formidable Tom Tloyster, June Adams, W. B. "Mason, and Luther Steward Royster was the low scorer for his team, hanging up a card of 169 for the 36 holes. While the university carried off the team honors last year, a member of the Davidson team annexed the low medalist honor and the individual in tercollegiate championship of the state. This title went to Davidson's Boyce Martin by virtue of 169 for 36 holes and his victory in a play off with Royster of Carolina, who had the same number of tallies to his credit. Spring Basketball Practice Is Held Three Times Week Spring basketball practice is now being held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons in the Tin Can. Coach Shepherd urges that al men who are interested in trying out for next year's varsity and who are not occupied in some other form of athletics at -present attend these practices. Although the squad numbers around fifteen candidates at present, only four of the varsity squad of the past winter have been attending them, Teams are picked from those presen and scrimmages held. A great dea of interest is being manifested by. the applicants and it is likely that sharp competition will be afforded the vete rans in securing berths on the 1930 team. Those members of the past winter's squad now attending are Marpet Dameron, Choate, and Farleigh Practices beerin promptly at four o'clock. Student Oil Engineers Operate Real Refinery Norman, Okla A 250-barrel oil re finery provides a laboratory for stu dents of petroleum engineering at the University of Oklahoma.

CARL SANDBURG TO BE AT DUKE Famous Poet and Lecturer to Give Program under Aus pices of Faculty Club. -Wright, rookie pitcher, had the Old Liners eating out of his hand Tues day afternoon and his team mates piled up seven runs to give the Tar Heels a seven to. one victory. The Heels bunched their hits in the second inning to score four runs and again in the fifth for the remaining three. The Old Liners' lone score came in the third inning when McGan receiv ed a walk, Kay hit a single, and Mc Gan was allowed to score when Sat terf ield '.missed a hot one hit by Ra- dice." Rand, sophomore second-baseman, found one of Hess's hooks in the second inning and added one more to the .Heel's list of home runs by driv ing it far out into right field. Phil Jackson, following Rand, completed the downfall of Hess by driving one into deep center for another four, bag ger. Leschinsky then relieved Hess and the scoring was stopped for that inning. Captain Nap Lufty, for the Heels, and McGan, catcher for the Old Lin ers shared batting honors each making two Tuts out of three trips to the plate. The fielding by the Tar Heel infield ers was not up to its usual standard. Several costly plays were made that could easily have been-chalked up as errors without hurting the scorer's conscience. This was the last game on schedule before the Heels start on their north ern trip today. They are scheduled to meet the Old Liners again tomor row on Soldiers Field and meet the Cavaliers the following day in Char lottsville. V. M. L, V. P. L, and Washington and Lee are on tap for successive days next week.

Leading lights will be Captain Backus, in the half-mile and mile; Grant, sprinter; Pomeroy, pole vaulter; and Sandifer, in the sprints and broad jump. Captain Backus won his mile from Maryland in 4 minutes 38 seconds and came back to run the half in 2 minutes flat. Grant won both sprints; Pome roy cleared 11 feet 6 inches in the pole vault, and Sandifer jumped well over 21 feet in the broad jump. Those records speak for fine bat tles here next week, for the Tar Heels will n resent stars in each of these events. Dave Nims and Minor Bark ley will battle Backus in the half mile, . and Barkley will team with June Fisher in the mile. Ken Smith and Ken Gay will battle Grant and Sandifer in the sprints, and the bril liant Vernon Cowper will be after pole vault honors. Cowper has cleared 12 feet 9 inches this year.

Williams Elected To Head Debate Council Is Member of Rising Senior Class; Suucceeds Bledsoe of Asheville. Carl Sandburg, famous lecturer and American poet of note, will give a lecture-recital, called by him "lec- turette," at the Duke university audi torium Saturday evening at 8 o'clock. The program is the last of a series being held under the auspices of the Faculty Women's club and the Duke university lecture council. Mr. Sandburg's programs are a combination of lecturing and of sing ing and of dramatic entertainment. tie recites some of his own verse, sings some to the strumming of his guitar, and lectures some. Rarely have Durham lovers of literature and of folk songs been afforded such an opportunity as will be given them Saturday night. The poet's books have made him known the world around as the voice of America speaking for her new civilization. American critics, for a long time hostle, have now ac corded him a place in the ranks of the foremost modern writers of verse. Like so many other men who have attain rame in the field of litera- Sandburg has led a very life. Born on an Illinois prairie, he spent his formative years on a farm and working in brickyards and potteries. At 13 he stopped school but later returned and studied for a while at Lombard college in Ill inois. x. . He has lived the life of a tramp; he washed dishes in Denver hotels, worked in mines, saw active service in the Spanish-American war in Porto Rico, and represented a news paper syndicate in the Scandinavian countries during the world war. From this wealth of experience he draws the themes of his poetry and his songs. He- is considered by many critics the most representative Amer ican poet since Whitman. During the course of the business session of the Debate Council Monday night J. C. Williams, of Linden, was unamiously elected president of that organization. Williams, who is a member of the rising senior class, suc ceeds Taylor Bledsoe, of Asheville. To date he has represented the Uni versity in eight intercollegiate debates. bate Council is: J. C.
