Score Fails To Tell True Story
As Revamped Squad Takes 21-6 Win
North Carolina faced South Carolina last Saturday with seven new members
on the starting line-up and still managed to crush the Gamecocks 21-6. The
score was far from indicative of the game.
Scoring shortly after the opening kickoffthe Tar Heels were never seriously
in the hole, and continued to romp all over the field. Once again, however,
' that final scoriner nunch was lackincr.
and at least four other scoring possi
bilities were muffed.
Gamecock Tally
The only Gamecock tally was a re
sult of one of the Tar Heels' common
intercepted passes. Striking at the
gates of a probable score late in the
second period, the Chapel Hill crew at
tempted a pass to Grimes which was
intercepted by Joe Shaw on the Game
cock 20 and run 80 yards for the losers'
lone marker.
Coach Young's revamped aggrega
tion didn't gamble with aerials for any
appreciable time, however, as one
glance at the statistics will prove. It
was strictly a rushing contest for the
JNortn Carolina eleven, wnich ran
through more than 300 yards on the
ground. The passes that did connect
were few an dshort, giving the winners
a full 15 yards gained via the air.
Revamped Squad
The substitutions from the Carolina
bench were strange to a varsity fan,
but the scoring was reflective of the
Tar Heel squad previous to the Navy
shtake-up. It was Eddie Teague who
broke away for 43 yards and the open
ing touchdown, and Hosea Rodgers who
took Georgie Grimes' lateral in the
second period and ran 32 yards for
the second tally, adding to this the
Tar Heels' final touchdown of the day,
when he smashed over from the 1 yard
line, late in the third quarter.
All eyes were, of course, on the new
material, for while Duke was mop
ping up over in Raleigh, with a deplet
ed Blue Devil squad, Coach Young was
testing his charges for the all-impor
tant posts in the all-important classic

Next Week
Next week's opponents from the
University of Pennsylvania were, in
the meanwhile, taking a defeat at the
hands of Navy and may be expected
to bounce back with vengeance.
Toward the goal of winning their
next game, the Tar Heels were seen
to have held back all possible tricks
and break-away plays against the
Gamecocks. It may be truly said that
any Duke or Penn scout lurking in the
stands went home sadly disappointed.

Swimming
With a brilliant record of four Sou
thern Conference titles behind them,
the Blue Dolphin squad, under Coach
Dick Jamerson, opened practice last
Monday afternoon, with many of the
last year's swimming stalwarts re
turning to bolster hopes in defending
the Mermen's title during the season
ahead.
Determined in his actions, Coach
Jamerson immediately guided his
squad through a series of routine
drills, working out the raggedness
showing up in early workouts.
Hopes of keeping the team's rating
among the first ten ranking swimming
squads in the nation, will hang on the
shoulders of the 22 prospective candi
dates reporting for the opening call.
Heading the list were captain-elect
Denny Hammond, the standout star
for the Dolphin team of 42 and holder
of the new national collegiate breast
stroke record. Hammond is also rank
ed high among the backstroke perform
ers in the country and has shown ef
fectiveness in the 220 freestyle and one
leg of the 400 relay.
Buddy Crone
Buddy Crone, six-times holder of
the Carolina AAU diving crown and
ranked fourth in the country during
his freshman year. He is expected to
be Carolina's top performer in this
division. Percy Mallison, who was
rated No. 1 in the nation on the 100
will add strength in this event.
Coach Jamerson also plans to use
Ben Ward, a star sprinter from Golds-
jboro, who aided Carolina to take the
CAAU meet at Tarboro in the 300
meter individual medley, while George
Whitner, a stalwart in the ,800 meter
freestyle has broken the tape at
11:36.6, as compared with the old rec-
Coach Jamerson urged all prospec
tive swimmers interested in goings out
for the team, to report at the Bowman
Gray Memorial Pool this afternoon at
5:15 and the "more the merrier," he
says.

Alex Howard, of the "Admirals," were
leading the field in the University's in
tramural sports activity Friday as the
new program neared its first semes
ter's end, and winners were scheduled
to be decided in final games Monday

points with a total of 3,420. In third
place were the V-12 "Pre-fieeters,"
who had 2,625 points.

A DURATION DO!
Your shirts are valuable items these days and
appreciate special handling.
Turn up your shirt collar before sending it
to the laundry. A collar washed flat doesn't fray
so easily at the crease.
Have your shirts laundered frequently. A too
soiled shirt requires more scrubbing and conse
quently wears out more quickly. "
Go easy on the starch. Starching stiffens fabric,
so that it breaks instead of bending.
When you buy, buy Arrow. Arrow shirts are
longer-lasting, better-fitting, and carry the San
forized label (fabric shrinkage less than 1).

Season Tickets
All Carolina V-12 students who are
interested in the winter sports pro
gram from the spectators point of
view may procure season tickets at
the Carolina Athletic Association of
fice in Woollen gymnasium.
These ducats are currently on sale
at a modest $2.00, which would ac
tually figure only a few cents per
contest considering the fact that bas
ketball, swimming, boxing and wrest
ling are included in winter sports.
Furthermore, this pass will entitle
bearer to admission the forthcoming
Duke-Carolina football fracas.
Box office officials state that sales
have not been as numerous as ex
pected but this can probably be at
tributed to the fact that few V-12ers
knew about the situation.
Game schedules have not been an
nounced but will be made public in
the near future.

A civilian and a Navy man took the
prizes in last week's VARSITY foot
ball predictions contest. AS, V-12,
H. Carroll Botten, 1 Hewes Hall was
first and will collect the five dollar
prize prrvided by the Varsity shop.
$2.50 prize winner is Ed H. Levy, 300
S. Columbia Street.
Predictions nemesis was the Duke
runaway, with the upset victory of
Cornell over Penn State also tripping
up most of the would-be sages.
Despite the fact that they lost to
Navy last Saturday, Pennsylvania is
expected to rise again and give Caro
lina a stiff fight. In an inter-service
game, Sampson Naval meets Army and
will be up against tough opposition de
spite Army's loss to Notre Dame. Co
lumbia, with no victories to their credit,
meets an up and coming Navy team
fresh from their triumph over Penn
sylvania. Although Duke is definitely favored
over Virginia, prophets will run up
against difficulty in predicting a likely
score for this clash. An inconsistent
Penn State team will play Temple Uni
versity; if it's one of their good days
they should come out on top.
A generally weak Carolina Pre
Flight eleven faces Camp Lejeune.

Sponsored by the University club,
the grid-graph will preside as usual
for the benefit of Tar Heel fans. The
mechanical contraption consists of a
great board with lots of pretty lights.
These lights, by some absolutely un
canny means, show the position of each
player on each play.
In case football followers and Caro
lina boosters are planning to sit by
the fireside and listen to the game over
the radio Saturday afternoon, it might
be in order to note that there will be
no broadcast. So come deposit a mere
twenty-five cents in the little box at
Memorial Hall at 2:00 p. m. and watch
the Blue and White roll on to victory.
Having only scored 7 points the entire
season Wisconsin can scarcely hope to
have much chance against once de

Lange Cuts Squad
After 80 Report
For Practice
By Art Jones
Over eighty men reported for the
first basketball practice of the season.
Among them were stars of last year's
varsity and freshman teams, besides
V-12 players from the Southwestern
conference.
Coach Bill Lange has already cut the
squad to forty men and has started the
team on polishing up their defense. He
expects to have a well balanced team
and has high hopes that some of the
V-12's now on the football team will
strengthen his team after Thanks
giving. Veterans
Returning from last year's varsity,
which for the first time in Carolina's
history weren't invited to the Southern
Conference Tournament, are Bob Alte-
mose, star aeiensive center ana a
steady player, who received outstand
ing honors fpr his spirit on the court.
Lou was also captain of last year's
baseball nine. Bob and Lou are V
12ers. Coming up from the freshman team,
which last year went through an un
defeated season, are "Buster" Steven
son, outstanding guard, and Dick Don
nan, high scoring center.
N. C. State's outstanding player,
Bernie Mock, who is in the V-12 here,
is also out for the team. Last year
Bernie, who plays center, scored twenty
points in one game against a strong
Carolina Pre-flight five. He is expect
ed to be one of the mainstays of the
team. Against Carolina he scored 10
points in the first game, sparking his
team to a 47-36 victory. He only scored
five points in the second game, which
we won 45-38.
One of the outstanding civilians on
the team is "Soc" Crieticos, who made
all-state in South Carolina. "Soc,"
short for Socrates, scored an average
of twenty-two points a game in high
school. This is an excellent record con
sidering that he only averaged seven
teen shots per game.
The two men that Coach Lange ex
pects to build his team around are B.
Box and J. Dewell. Box hails from
West Texas State and was one of their
outstanding players on the freshman
team. He is six feet three inches tall
and is an excellent man on the offense.
Dewell is from Southern Methodist
University and played freshman bas
ketball there. Measuring six feet, three
inches, he is an outstanding player un
der the basket.
Both these men are playmakers, but
the coach doesn't think that they alone
can help Carolina control the boards.
I Barney and Oliver Poole, now playing
jon the football team, are expected to
join the basketball team. Coach Lange
'thinks that a tall man, like Barney, is
'all that is needed to make Carolina a
dangerous team.
I Barney played freshman basketball
jat the University of Mississippi. He
! measures six feet two inches and is an
excellent tea man. His cousin Oliver
j played two years of college football,
also at Mississippi U., and is six-three
' in height. Both boys are in the Marine
reserve.
' Schedule
j Many service teams are scheduled,
i besides our regular opponents. The
' opener will be late in November against
Camp Butner. To give our team some
pre-season practice, the White Phan
toms will scrimmage the Pre-flight
team often during the next few weeks.
The White Phantoms hope to raise
their twenty year percentage of .752,
during which they won 358 games and
lost 118. This record is one of the most
outstanding in the country.
So far there are nineteen men on
the first squad, with the rest forming
the Junior Varsity. Practicing from
five o'clock to six-thirty every evening,
the squad is getting into shape slowly
with emphasis being put on actual
playing rather than conditioning.
Coach Lange is of the opinion that in
tensive playing will aid the player and
condition him at the same time.
Lange is not satisfied wholly with
the turnout for practice. He thinks
there are more men on the campus who
can help the team greatly, who have
not shown up at practice. Those who
are interested are still invited to re
port for practice.
Boxing: Notice
All boys interested in trying out for
the yarsity boxing squad are asked to
meet at 5:00 this afternoon in the
Boxing Room at Woollen Gym.
