Saturday, May. 25, 1929 T H.E TAR HEEL Page Threa Uli M K If K-flt lulu SEASON THY m 'A . H. tt j? f H J U ! U ODAY Carolina Battles State in Final "Bi Five" Game Today the Tar Heel baseball team will meet the State College team in Raleigh for the last game of the sea son. This game was scheduled to be, played last Monday, but on account of rain it was postponed until today. The Carolina team will undoubtedly try to make up for the defeat suffered at the hands of Lanrting and the Wake, Forest Deacons last Wednesday. That day was indisputably an off day for the Tar Heels, and they are sure to come back today to defeat State for the second time this year. The first time that Carolina met the Wolf Pack, they beat them 6-5. The game was probably the most thril ling one witnessed on Emerson field4 this year. It was a ten inning af fair with both teams playing excellent baseball. State was compelled to. use three pitchers, while Carolina used two. Although State is not looked upon as a strong opponent, due to their low standing in the Big Five League, the game today will be a hard-fought one. State will be trying to avenge the former defeat, while the Tar Heels will be trying to prevent them from doing it. . State will, in all probability, use Captain Allgood . on the mound. Allgood started against the Heels in the last game, but their hard-hitting team soon knocked him to the show ers. He is the best State has, though, and is a formidable pitcher. Although the Carolina boxman has not been an nounced, it is thought that Wright will get the assignment. To date the Tar Heels have not lost a game in the Tri-State League, the championship of which they clinched two weeks ago. They have played nine in the League. State is the only obstacle that stands in their way to a nerfect record. : r: i - Coach 'Ashmore has been far11ffron? satisfied with the work of several of his players in recent games, either because they had 'slumped in their batting averages or because of costly errors they made. One would not be surprised to. note one or.$WQ changes in the line-up that faces State, for the Carolina squad is determined to win that game and thereby keep the Tri-State slate clean. - Bob Warren Takes Position at V. P. I. As Athletic Coach It is a long jump from a college football star to a college ' athletic coach, but Bob Warren, football cap tain at State Cllege last fall, and a member of State's Southern Confer ence championship basketball team, did just that. He has been appointed varsity basketball coach and athletic trainer at Virginia Polytechnical ! In stitute. He is to report for duty, September 1. Warren is one of the best all-around athletes in this state of recent years, and his coaching will be watched with interest by many North Carolina fans. Rifle Club To Hold Try-Outs for Medals Tryouts for marksmen, sharpshoot er, and expert rifleman medals ; will be held this afternoon at two o'clock on the range of the Carolina rifle club, which is located about two miles southeast of Chapel Hill. All men are eligible and those who wish to try out are welcome.

' Dave Nims, star trackman for the past two years, will probably lead the strongest track team ever to repre sent the University on the cinders next year. Besides himself, Captain- elect Nims will have practically all of this year's team back for further competition and several star fresh men. . Nims ran the four-forty last spring and came back to turn in the fastest half mile in the state this year. Every event will have strong men in it next spring. In the sprints there will be Farmer, Gay, Slusser, Smith, and Case; in the middle dis tances there will be Captain Nims, Garrett, Weil, Roy Brown, Barkley, Hamer, and Medford; in the distance runs , Barkley, Lowery, Baucom, Phoenix, Pierce, and Farris ; in the hurdles, Perry, Stafford, Reid, Slusser, Lowery, ; Skinner, Yarborough, and Goodwin; ; in the jumps Neinlan, 'Ar nold, Dry, Smith, Parsons, Bagby, Reeves, Mebane, Hadley, and McAl lister in the weights, Adkins, Dam- eron, Ruble, Thompson, Theron Brown, McAllister Remsett, Gilbreath, and Harpek ' ' -- TAR BABIES LOSE TO STATE FROSH Carolina First Yearmen Now in Tie With Wake Forest in State Rating. Coming as a surprise to many people, both in the University and town, is the announcement of the resignation of Lester C. Belding, coach of freshman athletics, to accept a position as coach of athletics at Greensboro High School. Mr. Beld ing was graduated from the Univer sity of Iowa and accepted a posi tion as . coach at Clinton, Iowa, high school, where his teams made note worthy performances in all contests. Mr. Belding then came to the Univer sity of North Carolina as freshman coach, and while here, his teams have made a most enviable reputation in all sports. During the current year, the freshman football team won the South Atlantic Championship, the basketball team was runner-up for the State Championship, and the track team was the undisputed State Champions. It is with regret that we see him go, but it is greatly to Greensboro's advantage for having been able to obtain him, and we are sure that his past success will con tmue with his future teams at Greensboro. Crayton Rowe, of Charlotte, who coached the Tar Heel boxers to a Southern Conference title in 1928, has signed a contract t take over the coaching reigns again next winter af ter being away for . a year.- He will fill the role of Coach Chuck Quinlan, who led the team to the Conference championship this year. Quinlan is kept busy by coaching wrestling and with acting as trainer in other sports, and the University athletic department is glad that Rowe is coming back. EAST AND WEST MEET FOR HIGH BASEBALL TITLE The Tar Babies lost a close game yesterday to the State College fresh men by the narrow margin of 2 to 1. This was the last game for both teams and the loss by the Tar Babies shoved them back into a tie with Wake For est in the state freshman race. The Wolflets put over the winning run , in the ninth inning when Wilkie ! scored on Moore's safety. The Tar Babies were unable to score in their half of the ninth. The State yearlings pushed over their, first run in the fourth, but the Tar Babies scored one in the fifth to tie the count. The teams were fairly evenly match ed. Morris pitched for the 'Wolflets and allowed the Tar Babies but three safe blows. -Longest, elongated Tar Baby hurler, allowed six safeties, but he fanned eleven of the State year lings.' Wilkie, f echlet shortstop, and Johnny Branch, Tar Baby infielder, carried off the fielding honors of the day. . c- The baseball teams from Shelby and Raeford, which will meet on Em erson Field today, at 3 o'clock for the State high school baseball title, have arrived on the scene of battle and are all set for the engagement. Both teams arrived yesterday after noon, and at the conclusion of light periods of batting and fielding prac tice both coaches pronounced them "all set" for , today's championship Birds' Build Nests In Instructors' Cabinet COX PLAYS LAST GAME Tom Coxe will end his career as a Tar Heel today in the game with State College. This is the third con secutive season that Coxe has worn a Carolina uniform. During this time he has played some very good base ball both as an infielder and in the outfield. He made his debut at sec ond base in 1927 but near the middle of the schedule he was shifted to the outfield. Last season he took over Son Hatley's position in the center garden and has continued to hold it for the past two seasons. Coxe has always been a terror when on the bases and his speed has been a dis tinct asset to the Heel attack. Dur ing his first, tWo campaigns Tom hit over three hundred and fifty. This spring, however, he has been in a slump and has failed to hit up to usual form. As a defensive player Coxe has been outstanding, his speed enabling him to cover much more than his share of the outer garden. He will be greatly missed next year.

This is not the first time that wrens have ..chosen a University of fice ffpr their testing place. Last spring, a pair nested in the office of M. S. Breckenridge, and there raised a brood of four small birds. This year a pair nested in the very same place and raised a family of five. Mr. Breckenridge stated that the birds grew very rapidly and soon flew out of the window of his room. , Whether the birds who nested, in this office this spring are the same that lived there last spring is a mat ter of speculation,, but as wrens raise two or three broods a year, it is pos sible " that those who have usurped the pigeon hole in Murphy are the same ones that have already nested in Mr. Breckenridge's office. Mr. Breck enridge said that he was going over to see the birds in the English office to determine if they are the same pair wno were his euests earlier in the season. All last spring while the wrens stayed in Manning Hall, a window was left open for them ,and the same thing is now being done in Murphey. Tom Madden, said to be the' humani tarian of the group of English in structors started the idea of leaving the window and cabinet open, .. and now the janitor has been instructed neyer to close it. , The' only complaint against the birds comes from Hill Shine, who has files for his set of papers just under the place the birds have chosen for their home.. His objections, which are on ly slight ones, are overcome by the spirit of the others using the room, who are very interested in seeing whether, they can be as successful in having a brood of young wrens in their office as Mr. Breckenridge did earlier in the spring. - Notice Faculty and Graduate Students .Copy for' Research in Progress for the year ,1928-29 is now due and must be submitted before June 15, accord ing to an announcement by the Gra duate office. AH graduate students and members of the faculty who wish to contribute to the new issue are re quested by the Graduate Office to turn in their work to the office as soon as possible. TRACKMMMEET TO CELEBRATE AT ANNUAL BANQUET Dave Nims is Chosen to Lead the 1930 Cinder Team; Alex ander Will Manager. Annual Decathlon Contest on Monday The second annual Intramural De cathlon contest to determine the best all-round track athlete in the Univer sity will be run off Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and .Thursday of next week, as previously announced. The contests will be run in two sections, the Open Decathlon which is open to any bona-fide student in the Univer sity, and the Novice Decathlon "whieh is open, to students only who ave no competed in track athletics at the University. V , There are large delegations with both teams, and with many more sup porters expected to come this after noon, a record crowd is being pre dicted. Governor Gardner's son Ralph is manager of the Shelby team which won the western championship, and the Governor, it is thought, may lend his7 prestige and pulling power to the side of the western champions. Both teams have exceptional rec ords, and prospects are for a battle that will rival in the way of thrills the 10-inning game of last year, in which Forest City won the title from Whiteville by a 2 to 1 margin. - Shelby scored 60 runs to all op ponents 9 in this year's champion ship games, coming through to the finals by victories over Cliff side, Henrietta, Caroline, Lincolnton, Black burn, Norwood, and Winston-Salem. Baef ord defeated Fayetteville, Laurin burg, New "Bern, and Clayton, more than doubling the score on each op ponent. Casey Morris, former star Carolina catcher, is the Shelby coach. W. C. Hodgin, of Davidson, coaches the Raeford . team. , . . ;, The University, .of North Carolina track team formally closed its 1929 season last Thursday night at a ban quet given to the members of the squad. The gathering was more in the form of a spread than that of a banquet; there being very little for- mality attached to it. Captain Johnny Henderson acfed as toastmaster and ably performed his task. Dr. Laurence, Dr. Harland, Coach Fetzer, and Dr. Caldwell all gave short talks .upon varying topics. Members of the team were then, called upon to say a few words and in response to such a request Puny Harper, Harrison, Cox, and Brown all rose to their feet and delivered stirring addresses. Dave Nims was chosen to head the 1930 track team. . Nims ran the, 440 for the Tar Heels last season and proved ; himself to be a consistent point gainer. This year he was shift ed to the half and has also ran the 220 and the 440. In a recent meet with Duke he lead a .fast field in the half mile race and succeeded in top ping the 'state time by a full two sec onds. The Heelmeri'. could not have chosen better their leader for 1930. Johnson Alexander will manage the team next year; as his assistants he will have William Dunn and George Newman. ' ' u Following the banquet the members of the squad were guests of the Caror The occupants of Mangum dormi tory will be the guests of the Caro lina Theatre tonight.
