This afternoon the annual State Inter
collegiate track and field meet will
close in Greensboro.
Carolina, seven times winners of
the title, is set for another crack at
the championship. Coach Bob's athl
etes have been so successful in their
quests of titles during the past seven
years that the Tar Heels rule as
heavy favorites despite the outstand
ing ability of many athletes from
other institutions.
Reports from Davidson indicate that
Currie, record holder in the two
sprints, will be unable to run this
afternoon. Two years ago the David-

With the return of Marshall Rand
to his regular second base post, the
stock of Carolina's baseball ' nine
took a big jump. Also with ten days
of rest after more than a month of
strenuous playing the Heels should
improve.
Coach Ashmore has been forced to
use the three regular pitchers in all
games, and the strain was beginning
to tell on them when the Heels met
V. P. I. and Duke last week-end. But
with the rest all three hurlers are
expected to be in trim for the three

and Virginia.

years ago he set two state marks.
One of those marks is likely to go by
the boards today, but the other is
likely to stand. His record of 21.6
seconds for the 220 will hardly stand
before the furious pace of Gay of
Carolina, Smith of Carolina, Melton
and Stout of State, Mulligan of High
Point, Murray of Duke, and Whittle
of Davidson. However, the centry
mark of 9.6 seconds will hardly be in
danger.
Other Davidson men who will be
out this afternoon are Bob Kell,
speedy 440 man, and Tom Nell, half
miler. Both of these men had been

Season's performances favor the
Tar Heels this year. With strength
equally divided throughout the team,
j. the proteges of C&acfr Fetzer look
eood. In only one event are the
Heels weak: the javelin throw. Be

through the field events Carolina has
an array of stars to make any team
feel uneasy. State and Duke both ap

several stars who will . compete des

With Currie out, Gay, Stout, Mel
ton, Murray, Smith, Whittle, and Mul
lisran will split honors in the y two
sprints. Harrison, Tar Heel quarter-
miler, looks like the best bet in the
440. Whittle, Perry, and Stafford are
leading contenders for the two hurdle
races. All three men have turned in
excellent times this year, and the two
Carolina men have lost only one race
in the dual meets.
Woodward, Ashworth, Nims, and
McGinn will fight it out for the half
Phil Jackson, heavy hitting utility
man, has been playing second during
the absence of Rand. While the Gas
tonia boy has been hitting creditably,
his fielding hasn't been up to that of
Rand's. The combination of Rand
and Whitehead around second base
has pToved one of the best in "Big
Five" circles. Rand was injured in
the first V. P. I. contest and upon the
team's return to Chapel Hill he was
placed in Watts Hospital for treat
ment. Monday he returned to the
diamond. His lay-off apparently
hasn't affected his playing, for in
practice this week he has been going
great.
Wright probably will get the call
against the Deacons with Ball and
Fleming being held over for the Vir
ginia games. However, with a three
day interval between the games Coach
Ashmore may send any one of the
three against the Deacons and then
use them against Virginia. Fleming
was used against both V.P.I, and
Duke last week effectively.

HITS BALL HARD
Ashmore's Men Bang Out 146
Hits in First Ffteen
Games.
The University of North Carolina
baseball squad, undefeated leaders of
the Southern Conference Tri-State
League, ds still using the big bats to
advantage. The Tar Heel squad is
still hitting in the magic .300 divi
sion, and that heavy clouting has
been a big factor in all victories this
season.
With the season two-thirds away,
and with thirteen games won in the
first fifteen starts, the v records show
that Coach Jim Ashmore's outfit has
driven out 146 hits in amassing the
squad's .308 in the percentage col
umn. That means that nearly ten
hits per game have carommed off tHe
Tar Heel sticks.
Phil Sher, diminuitive sophomore
outfielder, is leading the Tar Heel
parade. Sher is hitting an even .400
in eight games, having hit ten times
in 25 official trips to the rubber. An
other pair of outfielders, Jim Barn-
hart and Bob Jessup, trail Sher with
.373 and .358 averages. Both Barn
hart and Jessup hit from the port
side. '
These three leaders top their mates
by many points, for Jimmie Maus and
Henry Satterfield are next in line
with .327, followed by Whitehead with
.326, Jackson with .323, and Captain
Lufty with a .315 average. -
Several of the Tar Heel stars have
tumbled half a hundred points in late
games, but they now have a ten-day
rest to regain their batting eyes. The
next game on the cards is with Wake
Forest on the Deacons' own ground
on Tuesday, May 7 Other games
left (this season are with Virginia in
Chapel Hill, May 10; Virginia in
Greensboro, May 11; Duke in Chapel
Hill, May 17; State in Raleigh, May
20; and Wake Forest in Chapel Hill,
May 22.

Dave Nims, Carolina's star half-
miler, is expected to lead a fast pace
in the half-mile event "at Greensboro
today. He ran this race at Duke on
April 24 in 1:58 minutes flat, and
broke the state record by one and
one-half seconds. The record was pre-1
viously held by Evans of Carolina who
ran the 880 yards in 1:59:4 minutes.
In his career on the track Nims
has run events from the 220-yard
dash to the mile sprint. He entered
Carolina as a distance man and has
since run in, these .other events. In
the dual meet with Duke, Nims placed
second . in the 220-yard dash before
winning the half-mile.

"Representatives of the University
in this year's golfing classic of the
South will be: Meade Willis, No. 1;
Charles Chatham, No. 2; June Adams,
No. 3; Luther Stewart, No. 4;. June
Adams has been Captain and Mana

sports. . Luther Stewart is playing j
his second year on the varsity aggre
gation; Willis and - Chatham are
sophomores, playing their first year
of varsity golf.
A -series of challenges among the
second round of ranking University
golfers led to a play-off over the
Hope Valley links on Thursday of
this week. The 18-hole match for
positions yielded Willis Henderson,
No. 5; Dave Craig, No. 6; Sam Pet-

The Southern Conference matches
which open in Asheville on Thursday
next will mark the culmination of a
so-far successful season for the
Carolina golf team. The University
golfers have already annexed the
North Carolina Intercollegiate Cham
pionship by virtue of its decisive vie
tories in the Sedgefield Tournament
in early April. Defeats at the hands
of Duke and Georgia Tech have been
favorably overshadowed by brilliant
victories scored over Washington and

Wrist Watch That Winds

A self-winding wrist watch, ii about

The principle of the watch Is simple,
the' essential device being, a weighted
segment pivoted In the center of the
watch which, swinging with the statu
al movement of the arm, moves a gear
connecting with the mainspring. A
friction spring exerts a presskre which
discontinues the action when, the
mainspring is fully wound. I
It is said that overwinding of the
watch ,14 Impossible, as the mainspring
is always tinder equal tension, a fact
that obviates mainspring breakages
and makes for accuracy in timekeep
ing. Moreover, sinoe there is no wind
ing stem, the case la practically air
tight and resists the entry of dust ana
moisture. TO set the hands, all that
is necessary is to turn the outside cir
cular Jims.

least thirty hours after being worn for
