Charlotte Returns to Take
High School Track Meet
Queen City Team Barely Man
ages to Nose out Wilming
ton 34 1-2 to 33 1-2.
Captain Henderson
Charlotte returned yesterday to
take back to the "Queen City" the
state track title after allowing it to
be held by Greensboro for one year.
Charlotte clearly proved themselves
champions of the North Carolina High
Schools, for in winning the title they
fought off the winning stride of the
flying feet from Eastern North Caro
lina. Wilmington, winner of two state
titles this season, sought a third. But
it was not to be for the well-rounded-ness
of the Charlotte lads gave them
the title by one point. The final score
found "Doc" Barret's trackmen lead
ing Wilmington 34 1-2 to 33 1-2.
Only one record fell before the on
slaught of the high school athletes.
Martin copped that with a heave of
170 feet 7 1-2 inches to break the old
record by six feet one half inch. Mar
tin's record compares favorably with
the throws of the college athletes in
the state.
"Doc" Barret brought a well-round
ed team up from Charlotte for it was
their second and third places that
won the meet for them. In only two
events did the Charlotte boys win
first the discus and the 440 yard
run. Mitchener took the 440 in an al
most blanket finish with Evans of
Charlotte, Lynch of Wilmington, and
Robinson of Wilmington. The race was
so close that it was difficult to pick
the winner at the finish. To Robin
son, winner of fourth place in the 440
yard run go individual honors of the
day, for the plucky Eastern lad came
back less than thirty minutes after
the finish of the quarter and took
second to Rankin of Wilmington in the
half mile
Wilmington's remarkable feat of
taking second place in the meet was
accomplished mainly through the ef
forts of five men Hancock, winner
of the two sprints, Rankin, winner of
the 880, E. Smith, winner of the low
hurdles, Robinson, and Bennett.
Others participated in the scoring but
these five scored 26 points' ' between
them.
However,, to Doc Barret, mentor of
the Charlotte team, goes the credit
of having one of the best high school
teams seen in a long while in the state.
While Wilmington and other teams
were piling up first places the Char
lotte boys were scoring steadily with
seconds, thirds, and fourths.
Both Coach Barrett, and Sinclair
have developed outstanding teams in
Charlotte and Wilmington. Charlotte
has won consistently for six years with
only a break last year when Greens
boro won, while Wilmington has taken
second place by one point two years
straight Dave Sinclair, Coach of
Wilmington, is a former captain of
Carolina track and while coaching at!
Wilmington discovered Farmer, star
freshman sprinter. He has another
star, Hancock, developing rapidly.
Sikes of Edward Best high school
captured the pole vault and tied for
first in high jump to score eight
points for his team.

State Yearlings on
Track Last Thursday
The Tar Babies came through with
a win for the second time this season
when they defeated the State Fresh
men track team on Emerson Field last
Thursday to the tune of 85 to 41.
In spite of the cold there were
many exciting races although at no
time was the outcome doubtful. Reid,
of Carolina, came through as the high
scorer of the meet with three firsts
and a tie for second. He took both
the hurdle races, as usual, and nosed

broad jump, also tying for first in
the high jump with Johnson, of Caro

TAR HEELS MEET
TECH IN ATLANTA
Fourth Cinder Test for
This Season.
Heels
Nineteen Tar Heel trackmen jour- i
neyed southward yesterday to meet
Georgia Tech. upon the cinder this af
ternoon. This is the third meet of
the season for Coach Bob's charges
and the clash today with Tech will
undoubtedly le the most dangerous
threat to the seven years dual compe
tition record that the Heels have yet
encountered this year. The invading
Carolina team will be for the most
part the same that met Washington
and Lee last Saturday. Captain
Johnny -Henderson and his ; mile co
horts, following their stab at tihe
Tech relays last week, will again lend
their strength to the North Carolina
track Aggregation.
The men making the trip to Atlanta
are as follows: Henderson, Adkins,
Bagby, .Barkley, Baucom, Brown,
Cowper, Garrett, Gay, Hamer, Harri
son, Harper, Lowery, Neiman, Nims,
Perry, Ruble, J. K. Smith, Stafford,
and Gra.y, manager.
This afternoon the Tar Heels will
meet the cadets from V.M.I, iir the
last game of a week's schedule which
showed four battles. On Monday the
bad weather struck Virginia and kept
Ashmore's men from playing. Then
again on Tuesday the rain made the
second game of the week impossible.
Wednesday the elements proved some
what milder and the Heels took the
measure of the V.P.I. club on a cold
and wet diamond. This fray was
marked by good pitching and rather
slack fielding on the part of both
teams. However, by bunchingtheir
hits when they were needed most, the
Tar Heels succeeded in winning eight
to two.
Starting a rally in the fourth frame
when a hit. batsman forced in a run,
Carolina ran up four,. tallies on a
double by Rand which cleared the
bases, s Again in the sixth and in the
seventh the Heels drove over runs.
The Gobblers were able to make their
hits count for runs in the fourth and
sixth frames only.
Fleming and Mapp were each
stingy with hits, the former allowing
only six hits and the latter only
seven. '
This victory was the fifth straight
for the Tar Heels in Tri-State League
play. It was also the first game that
the Gobblers played in the. Tri-State
competition. ."
This afternoon the Flying Cadets
from V.M.I, will show their wares on
Emerson Field. The cadets have a
strong club and the Heels are ex
pecting a stiff battle. Coach Ash-
more has either Wright, Ball or Flem
ing ready to start against V.M.I,
This will be the sixth game for the
Heels in Southern Conference Tri
State league "play.
At present Carolina is tied for
first place in the state championship
race with the Blue Devils from Duke.
Duke has chalked up two wins in
Big Five play and the Heels have won
the only game they have played, de
feating Davidson. Wake Forest
seems to have one of the strongest
teams in the state and are expected
to change the race, which was at first
conceded to be between the Heels
and Duke, into a three cornered af
fair. To date the State College ag
gregation has not showed much
strength and if it does not show a
reversal of form it will probably not
give anyone much trouble. Play be-
