Thursday, May 23, 1929 THE T A R HEEL Pasre Three DEMON DEACONS BEAT CAROLINA SEVEN TO TWO Game Was Very Slow and There Were Many Errors; Lanning Hurled Good Game. Wake Forest defeated Carolina yes terday afternoon on Emerson Field by the score of 7 to 2. The game was marked by a number of errors on the part of Carolina, and inability to hit in the pinches. The hurling of Lan ning for Wake Forest was very good. He gave the Tar Heel batters few hits and most of these were widely scattered. The Deacons scored two runs in the first inning by getting clean hits off Ball. They scored again early in the second inning and Ball went to the showers. Fleming relieved Ball and retired the side with one more run. Fleming fared well until the seventh inning when the Deacons bunched hits for three runs. Fleming was relieved by Wright, and he held the visitors scoreless during the remain ing frames. Carolina's runs were scored in the fourth and sixth innings. Maus sin gled to right field, was sacrificed to second, got to third on a fielder!s choice and scored on a long fly to right field by Jessup. The other run came as a result of a triple to left field by Jessup and a long fly by Luf- ty.

These men were outstanding last fall, especially in the two final games of the season. In these two frays practically all of the scoring power was furnished by the driving sopho mores. These men stowed up to advantage in the spring football games and all of them give promise of being even greater threats next year than they were while playing their first season on the var sity.

(Bob) Kell, of Pascogoula, Miss., member of the senior class at Davidson College, has been named winner of the Norris Athletic trophy cup, for having rendered the most valuable services to Davidson in an athletic way during the past schol astic season. Kell won a clear majority on the third ballot over Dan Leftwich,- of Convers, Ga., and Tom Brohard, of Grafton, W. Va. Eight students were nominated and voted upon by mem bers of the student body. The three in the final ballot were letter-men in both football and track. ;" Bob Kell brought fame to himself and the college during the 1929 foot ball season, being one of -the ! "-best ball-carriers on gridiron teams of North Carolina. He frequently pvarfpd his tacklers to sidestep 1 f or many long runs, his last sprint' be ing an 80-yard dash for touchdown on a returned punt. At times during the season he acted as quarterback. Kell has also been a prominent mem ber of Davidson's track team, run ning in the dashes and on the relay team. In addition to his athletics, Kell was president ofthe Davidson student body last year and was; out standing in leadership roles oh the campus. Norris, Inc., of Atlanta, Ga., has been awarding large silver loving cups annually to the Davidson student who brings the most fame and re flects the most credit on the college by his participation in athletics. Other winners have been Red Laird, Harry Vance, Ernest Bohanon and Charlie Harrison. Kell will be pre sented the 1928-29 cup at commence ment. X A New Remedy JESSUP LEADING CAROLINA HITTER SheT, Barnhart, and House Also Hit Well for the Season; Wake i?oct anil State Left on 1' vive f Schedule. Bob' Jessup, veteran Tar Heel out fielder has apparently cinched the batting championship of the Carolina baseball squad for this season. He is far out in front of his mates as is shown bv the latest averages com niled after the Duke game. Only yesterday's game with Wake Forest Voc rmf vpf. been fieured. Since he has a lead of nineteen points over his nearest rival,, the Greensboro boy's 1ad will hardly be threatened by any the averages made by nlav aeainst the Deacons. Statistics Compiled after the fina Carolina-Duke game on Friday show Jessup with, 17 hits in 44 attempts this season, giving him a grand aver o ,vF aQ fnr 15 erames. Next m line is Phil Sher, sophomore outfielder with an average of .370 m 10 games Other leading hitters are Barnhart .368: House, .350: Maus, .339; White head, .333; and Sattertieia, .at. Most of Jessup's blows have been singles, although he has one double J linvna run f n his credit. He mm vuc uuiuv - 7 - hails from Greensboro, and he cele brated his home appearance in the rarnlina-Vireinia classic eiuiiu here with his lone Ruthian swat of the year. However, the long distance honors eo to other Tar Heels. Cautain Nap Lufty and Phil Jack son have each smacked three home runs this season to tie for the "Babe Ruth" honors of the squad. Lufty also shows three doubles and one triple during the year. Henry Satter field, playing his third and final season,-, heads the three-ply hitters with -f,t. .Ti'r.lGs. and Jim' Barnhart is showing the way to the two-bagger legion with four of the half -circuit blows.

DECATHLON TO B SECOND ANNUAL E HELD NEXT WEEK Intra-mural Department An nounces Plans for Its Second Annual Decathlon Which Will T?p Held on Emerson Field Next Week. FOOTBALL TEAM HAS TEN GAMES Prospects Bright for Strong Team Next Fall; Schedule Shows Ten Stiff Battles. Beezle I went home quite a bit under the weather last night and my wife didn't suspect a thing. Bub Couldn't she smell your breath? Beezle That's just it. I ran the last block home and when I got to her I was all out of breath. - The second annual Intramural De cathlon contests to determine the best all-round track athlete in the Univer sity will be run off next week. The contests will be run- in two sections, the Open Decathlon which is open to any bona-fide student in the TJniver sity, and the Movice uecatmon open only to students who have not com npted in track athletics in the Uni versity. The Decathlon contests will be con ducted in ten selected track and field events, with every entry to compete in all ten events , to make up his score Scoring will be based on comparison with existing University records in the ten events, with a performance equalling a record to receive a score of 1,000 points. Other performances will be scored according to a percent age basis. Fordham Won Last Year Jeff Fordham, former Tar Heel football and track star, won the first annual Decathlon last spring with a score of 8,488.1 points out of a pos sible 10,000 points. Close behind Fordham came Johnnie Stafford, varsity hurdler and broad " jumper, with 7,987.1 poiits; " Johnnie Fort, 7,892.9 points; Chuck Erickson, 7,767.0 points; "Ookey" Neiman, 7,680.5 points; and Bill Dry, with 7,634.37 points. Other athletes scoring in the final standings last year were Winslow Smith, C. W. Hadley, Phil Gallengher, "Dusty" Skinner. "Skeeter" Park, Charlie Medford, and Ben Summer. Others entered the Decathlon, but failed to complete their schedule of all ten events. These men who plac ed in last year's finals will not be eligible for the novice section this year, but must compete in the Open Decathlon along with all varsity and freshmen monogram and numeral winners. The Ten Events The events listed in this second an nual contest will be the 100 yard dash, the high jump, the discus throw, the shot put, the 440 yard dash, the broad jump, the javelin, the pole vault, the 120 yard low hurdles, and the one mile run. The Open Decathlon will be run on Monday and Wednesday next, week, with five events each day. The Novice section will compete on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, also running five events each day. The events will start at 4 o'clock each afternoon. The first "day's events on Monday and Tuesday will consist of the shot put, the discus throw, the high jump, the 100 yard dash and the 440 yard dash. The second day's events, on Wednes day and Thursday will consist of the mile run,' the pole vault, the javelin, the broad jump, and the 120 yard low hurdles. All University students are urged to enter this annual event, and none need hold back because they think they are not good enough in all events. In deed, it is the performer who is "just fair" of "even lower than average" in all events that may place higher than the one who is a star in one or two events- and far down in others. Anyone desiring to enter the Open Decathlon will report on Emerson Field next Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Report to either Dale Ran son or Wallace Shelton on the field. Now that this year's sport schedule is about over, fans are beginning to discuss football. It is only a matter of three short months until the pig skin artists will begin practices. But Coaches Collins, Cerney, , Enright and Fetzer must solve several prob lems in that three months time before the opening game with the Deacons on the 28th of September. As a whole the outlook is very bright, but the mentors must fill several gaps. The positions left open by the graduations of Sapp, Schwartz, Presson, Howard, Schuler, and Gresham will be, hard to fill, but the coaches will have plenty of; good material up from the f resh manteam to take the places of the veterans. The freshman team boasts the South Atlantic championship, and it is sending up some of the best mater ial ever to graduate into varsity ranks. The coaches have all that anybody can expect in the way of backfield men. Next season there will be three different combinations one as good as the other. Wyrick, Jack son,. House, Magner, Maus, Erickson, Spaulding, Ward, Nash and Harden together with Rip Slusser, Shorty Branch, 'and Housten up from the freshman team are the men from EAST AND WEST TO CLASH HERE TITLE GAME Shelby and Raeford Meet Here Saturday Afternoon for State High School Championship.

"While Holt is eligible for one more year, at as doubtful whether he will be hack next season, since he graduates this spring. Morris, Reid, Nelson, Parsley, Tahb, and Huffman are the flankmen. Adkins, Koenig, Alexander and Hose are probable men for the tackles. There will be no wor ry, -over the iguard positions, since Captain Farris, -Eskew, Blackwood, Hutchinson, Mclver, and Dunavant can j ail take icare f the center of the line i. Gilbreath and Lipscomb seem to have the center position to themselves. The Tar Heels are undertaking a very ambitious schedule next year. While there is no intersectional game, yet the Heels will meet two of the strongest teams in the south when they stack np against Georgia and Georgia Tech. The schedule calls for ten games in all, but eight of these are with conference foes. The complete schedules Sept. 28: Wake Forest at Chapel Hill. :V' Oct. 5: Maryland at College Park, Md.

The semi-finals of the Annual State Championship baseball race among the high schools of North Carolina were run off Saturday. The winners of these two games will clash here next Saturday for the title. Clayton and Raeford met at Fayet- teville for the eastern title and after a close battle the Raeford team emerged as the eastern representa tive. McNeill : Continued his good pitching and seems likely to turn in a creditable performance , here . this week-end.. Shelby met Winston-Salem in the western finals and again . strong pitching by Hamrick pulled the Shel by club through to win.. Shelby and Raeford are to battle here next Saturday , afternoon on Emerson field for the state title. These two teams are the survivors of the race in which more than ; sixty teams representing, high schools from all over North Carolina were entered. An interesting feature of the race this year was the fact that both Clay ton and "Winston-Salem were eliminat ed after each had a chance to go to the finals. These two teams were the winners in 1926 and 1927 and since then each has been a constant threat. In the final game last spring Forest City won a thrilling ten inning game from Whiteville here on Emer son field. Quite a few supporters will be on hand to cheerieach team as the game Saturday will be the climax of high school athletics for this season. The Tar Babies will play the State Freshmen this afternoon at three-thirty on Freshman Field. This is the last game of the sea son for the Tar Babies, and it was scheduled for Tuesday afternoon, but the game was postponed on account of rain. The game this afternoon will decide the runner up position in the state freshman baseball race. Layton and Kush- ner will probably be the Tar Baby battery for the game this after noon,' LOCAL GOLFERS Largest Golf Tournament of Year Will Be Held on Chapel HiU Course Saturday.

Besides Harper, he was the only man to win a first place. However, Cowper was tied by Frederick of Mississippi A. and M. for this position. Each vaulted twelve feet one inch to top all competitors. Schoolfield of Sewanee gained third position by virtue of a vault of eleven feet ten, topping Neiman of Carolina. Cowper has been one of the most de pendable men on the track squad this year, having won in practically all of the dual meets as well as the State Meet. Cowper's winning mark of last Saturday failed to threaten the ex isting conference record. Odell of Clemson set this at thirteen feet three inches last year by an excep tionally fine performance.
