Accordingly, the Tar Heel, Num ber 18-W will be distributed to the V-12 at Swain Hall this noon and at dinnertime. Reason for the free distribution of this one issue of the paper was that, "we have set up a trimester fee for voluntary Navy subscription and we don't want the Navy men to feel that they are being asked to buy an un known quantity. "Also, it is a tradition on campus that everyone gets the Duke issue." The PU board spokesman further expiamea ma xn wm u t assue of the paper that will be so di-" tnbuted.

The part of Kurt' Muller, portrayed on the screen and on the stage by Paul Lukas, is played by Foster Fitz-Simons. The part of Sara, Kurt's wife, the part Bette Davis portrayed on the screen, is played by Ruth Oncley, who played in the "Boss of Bar Z."

Bine And WMte lm I Varsity Hopes For Conference Championship Cameron Brings High-Scoring Team Into Kenan Stadium This Saturday By Lloyd S. Koppel Carolina's surprising Tar Heels will be hell-bent for revenge this Saturday afternoon when they tackle Duke's Blue Devils for the second time this season. Riding on the crest of a 9-6 upset of powerful Pennsylvania, the Tar Heels will attempt to halt the high scoring Durham team, which after eight contests boasts a total of 308 points, ranking second in the nation to Notre Dame's 312. Previous Contest . In the previous contest this year, Duke handed the Blue and White a 14-7 drubbing. This game, however, is to be played with two almost entirely dif ferent squads than those which faced each other on Oct. 16. Furthermore each of these new organizations boasts equal undefeated records, and Carolina will have the advantage of playing on their home field, where they haven't lost a game all year. The Blue Devils will be battling for national recognition and sole, possession of the Southern Conference title. Coach Tom Young's crew will fight it out only for a share m Conference glory, since the previous loss to Duke prevents them from gaining a lone championship, come what may. National Ranking The iron Dukes lost only, to Navy so far this year, and have a good chance to wind up the season with the highest national ranking ever won by an eleven from this state. In the last tabulations from the National Collegiate Statistical Bureau the Blue Devils stood No. 5 among all the teams in the country in rushing, No. 6 in total offense, No. 3 in rushing defense, and No. 4 in total defense. Carolina Defense Although Carolina did not rank with the nation's elite on offense, the Tar Heels did stand No. 8 in pass defense and No. 14 in total defense, and fans generally expect them to give their favored neighbors a scrap, according to the time honored custom of this arch-rivalry. This return match cannot be successfully predicted according to early season dope, since each club lost half its game squad in mid-season by Navy transfers, and their places have been taken by new Jayvee and rookie stars. Revamped Squads ; Since the reorganization of the squads Duke has taken Georgia Tech into camp, 14-7; squashed hapless N. C. State, 75-0; and triumphed, with little ef fort over Virginia, 49-0. The revamped Tar Heels halted State unimpressively, 27-13; tripped a tricky South Carolina outfit, 21-6; and made history with last week's Penn victory. - Each eleven carries but four players who started in the Oct. 16 fray. Caro lina has Barney Poole, Ralph Strayhorn, George Grimes, and Hosea Rodgers. The Duke's Benny Cittadino, Charlie Carolina has six reserves who saw duty New Material The new lights, who have been outshining the veterans at times, include Henry, O. Poole, Cornogg, Jones, and Balitsaris, Folger, Borbely, Irwin, and Bush for Duke. Hosea Rodgers, 195 pound fullback transfer from Alabama, who broke through center and raced 34 yards for the winning touchdown against Penn, is leading the Tar Heel scorers with 24 Ralph Strayhorn, who played his best will be played against the home folks when the Durham boy starts at guard Saturday. The 200-pound NROTC lad made the All-Soph-Southern last year. Jack Fitch, who will open at wing back for Carolina Saturday, is from Etna, Pa., but he saved the Penn game for Carolina twice last week by running the star Quaker backs down from behind. Seaman Fitch, who starred for the Tar Heel f rosh last year, also gained 41 yards the two times he carried the ball against Penn. Myers and Thomason Billy Myers, who is running at both tailback and wingback and looking good in both spots, is tied with Vernon Thomason, another wingback and another Lexington boy, for second place scoring honors with 12 markers. - George Grimes, and his educated toe,- comes next in the tally line with nine, all on conversions, followed by Eddie Teague and Sammy Arbes with seven each; Joe Kosinski six; Jack Fitch six; and Barney Poole two. Poole, who plays end, scored his two points when he trapped Joe Michaels behind the goal, last week, to put Carolina ahead at half-time, 2-0. Other Scorers Big Bob Gantt is out in front of the Devils with 38 markers, mainly on extra points, while Luper, Hartley and Carver are tied for second place with 24 each. The Carolina-Duke feud dates back to 1888 and the first year of football in this state. Both claimed the spring, 1889, game on a forfeit, so the Carolina records show 14 wins, 12 losses and three ties. But the Duke book boasts 13 wins, 13 losses and the same three ties. S&F Directors 9 Brainwaves Still Brightening 'Gadabout' With opening night only a week away the directors of Sound and Fury are still getting brain-waves on phases of Carolina life and spirit that they missed in the original make-up of "Gadabout." The show is definitely not the Hellza poppin' type of revue but has a decided plot, and the dance routines and songs have woven themselves naturally into it. Specialty acts are the order of the day and a big feature of the show promises to be the Mixed chorus, model ed after Fred Warings Glee Club. In "I Knew You When," a sentimental ballad sung by the romantic leads, Betty Don Sweat and Harold Gould, the chorus forms a background. The dancing chorus, pictured last week, does a military tap dance to "Mad About A Military Man." This' specialty gives choreographer Lizzy Izen a chance to show her versatility. Besides originat ing and staging the dance routines, Miss Izen does a solo acrobatic tap dance while the chorus sings the melody. NUMBER 18 W easoiu To Tie Devils Milner, Fletcher Wall, and Buddy Luper. that day, while Duke has nine. Kosinski for Carolina, and Miller, Fleton, points. game of the year in last week's upset, "Gadabout" gains a Broadway touch when the chorus does a ballet to the accompaniment of Jack Ellis' "Pre lude to Dusk," which is on the order of "Rhapsody in Blue." To the other extreme in dancing tastes is the "Juke Box Boogie," number where Harold. Gould swings the lyrics while a group of 16 .jitterbugs show the audience what he's talking about. The campus Marines will delight in the fate or R. P. Dove, portrayed by Bill Russell, who starts out as an ador ing stooge for Marsha but he joins the Marines and she begins to realize his worth. President Winkler, played by Art Goldberg, worries a lot about Carleton College but can't seem to take time out from running Washington to run Carleton. If secretaries have a ' union, they will probably revolt when they see Kat Hill's perfect portrayal of Maxine, or what a good secretary should not do. And last, but not least, Wimpy, Mary Louise Huse's Scotty dog, plays the part of "Woofums," campus pet. f-lT
