'Ike Tar Heel Phi Gams Take Mural Football Cup TUESDAY, JANUARY 2, 1945 A. .A MS A I I I wm t intramural Managers To Hold Meetin FTH n a White Phantoms To-Face Their Major Opponents This Week f'y Phantoms To Face Three Foes This Week Sports Gagers To Meet Wake Forest Five Tomorrow Night By Irvin Smallwood The White Phantom basketbal team returns to active duty after two weeks- in Woollen gym tomorrow night at 8 o'clock, entertaining the Demon Deacons from Wake Forest in a Southern conference encounter . It is the first time Carolina and Wake Forest have met in two years. Coach (Lt.) Ben Carnevale's quint will be gunning for its sixth win in seven starts in the tilt tonight, and will be playing the first of three games on deck this week. Others to be faced include Maryland and South Carolina, and both battles will be on the local courts. South Carolina hand ed the Tar Heels their first defeat of the season in Columbia December 16. Same Line-up to Start It is anticipated that the same line up that has started the previous games this season will get the initial nod tomorrow night, but John Dillon, who has been showing some marked improvement in recent practices, may be in the linenup in place of Bill Allen. Don Anderson, Manny Al varez and Paxton are also pushing the first-stringers, Jim Jordan, Ira Norfolk, Jim Garvin and Clive Thomp son. Carolina's hardwood performers got down to serious busmess, immediately after returning from Christmas leaves last Thursday, and practice sessions both of the scrimmage and "skull" nature were held Sunday afternoon. Although he hasn't broken into the starting lineup as yet, Don Anderson, sole returning letterman, continues to be among the leading Phantom scorers. Also staying high on the list of point-getters are Thompson, Al varez and Jordan. Too,. Jordan had been looking good under the basket on rebound work. . Play Maryland Friday Included on the list of victims of the Carolina attack to date are Ft. Bragg, Camp Butner, High Point Col lege, Catawba and Morris Field of Charlotte. Ft. Bragg and Camp But ner were both rated as being among the strongest service teams in this section. The only setback marring the White Phantom record came at the hands of the Gamecocks "-. of South Carolina, but Coach Carnevale's boys will be fighting hard to square things in the clash here Saturday night. Maryland plays here Friday night. , The Duke Blue Devils, who nosed out Carolina in the finals of the South ern conference tourney last season, will not compete with 'the Tar Heels until January 20, and the second tussle is slated to be reeled off Febru ary 14 in the final game of the sea son in Durham. The Southern loop playoffs will be held in Raleigh March 1, 2, 3. ' ' ' ' ' i v.v..-:o:-::.:-v-vw..v.-.v.v.v.v.v.-.-.-.v.-.-.v-:A'. V , ' i ,U , ' ' V f'l v-: - - 'tJ y ' ' , - SV. , 4 I ' " !

Jordan is second highest Athletic Council Takes Its First Step In Football Reconversion, Hires Snavely The big news that the Tar Heel sports department has been eager to break blew up when there was no Tar Heel, but there is the old saying "bet ter late than never." s Signing of a five-year contract with Carl Snavely, former successful Tar Heel coach for two years and mentor of the Cornell gridsters for the past nine years, by the Athletic Association on December 20 is the big news which has been a rumor around Chapel Hill now almost since the same time last year. The" board of trustees is to pass on the decision in a meeting this month. Snavely has been heartily recom mended by the athletic council, Dean of Administration R. B. House stated. The trustee clique is considered only a matter of formality. As for salary scorer on the team. The lanky NROTC figures, the trustees have passed on a eager is a handy man under the bas ket. Jay vee Outfit Tangles With Plant Defense Mathismen Battle Carrboro Court Foe Carolina's once-beaten Jayvee squad engages a strong court team from the National Munitions of Carrboro at 7 o'clock tomorrow night in a prelude tussle to the Carolina-Wake Forest contest. The ineligibility of Clyde King to participate in varsity contests had added needed strength to the "B" crew. King played first string on the varsity five until the Southern con ference ruled the diamond star ineligi ble because of professional contract. Ray Walters will pair with King to fill the guard slots. Walters has ap peared in only one contest this season, but the football and baseball star is a veteran of two seasons on the hardwood. John Gregory and Huse will be at the forward positions, and. Dewey Bowman will start at center. Athletic Awards Are Given To 40 Players During Fall Quarter $12,000 per year coaching maximum However, the exact figure .at which Snavely will begin with has not been revealed Snavely 's contract with Cornell ex pires March of this year. However, Cornell , has already released' Snavely, the final arrangements having been made, over the telephone from Chapel Hill to Ithaca, N. Y Just when Snavely will take over his new position has not been re leased by the athletic department as the trustee decision on the matter this month is considered a requisite for further plnaning. Snavely will be here for spring drills, the athletic council stated if the trustees pass the council decision. Strictly a business man when it conies to football, Snavely is recog nized for his unique team organiza tion. He stresses the importance of ; jp' &&&&&&sfmtffit&f m nryiMM mi nn im r ft"" - Large Field Of Entries Expected For Cage Event Plans for the forthcoming intramural basketball league will be drawn up at a meeting of all team managers in 304 Woollen Gym tonight at 7 o'clock. All teams who are expected to enter the cage tourney must have a represen tative at this meeting,' Walt James asserted. A large field of entries are expect- SNAVELY plenty of .rest for his trainees, watch ing in particular for fatigue among the players. He was one of the" first coaches to advocate the use of films as an aid to classroom football Though he produces from his single wing with variations some tricky of fense, Snavely's main dish is defense. Snavely while here at Carolina in 1934' and 1935 produced the first Tar Heel Ail-American in George Bar- kly and almost saw his '35 squad travel out Pasadena way to play in the Rose Bowl, but Duke shattered Tar Heel hopes with a 25-0 shellacking. His '34 club lost only to Tennessee. The Duke-Carolina classic promises to be quite an affair with Snavely around because Wallace Wade and Snavely would rather match football wits than s play in a thousand bowl games. : Phi Gams Win Tag Football Championship Phi Delta Theta . Beaten In Finals - Billy Edwards paced the Phi Gam ma Delta fraternity to a 19-6 tri umph over a strong Phi Delta Theta squad in the finals of intramural touch football tourney. The contest was a hard fought battle all the way , but the Phi Gamms grabbed a decided lead after the half and were never threatened The running and passing of Ed wards featured the play, while Ted Haigler played a valuable role in the victory. Bob Koonts and Dave Nichols were the big threats for Phi Delta, but the strong defensive performance that the Phi -Gams offered hindered the usual impressive offensive play of- the losers. . Phi Gamma Delta reached the finals by whipping Kappa Sigma and Med School No. 2, while Phi Delta Theta advanced to the play-offs by defeating Med School No. 3 and S. A. A. By copping the touch football crown, the Phi Gams lead in the point , system, but several events are still on Invitation Indoor Track Meet To Be Staged On February 10 Carolina, Cadets To Sponsor Event Graham Stars As Pre-Flight Trims Duke Five, 58-43 All-American Ace Scores 27 Points Carolina Pre-Flight and Otto Gra ham again proved too much for Duke university last Friday night as the Cloudbuster hardwood crew toppled thA Blue Devil cmint. 58-43, in Wool len gym. Graham, who starred in the Pre Flight gridiron triumph over the Sugar Bowl Duke eleven,- accounted person ally for 27 points as he turned in his best performance of the year and showing his All-American ability. Pre-Flight led by only 29-22 at half time, but during the waning minutes of play, the Cloudbusters pulled ahead of the faltering Devils. Duke missed several good chances during the game to take the lead, but just as the Blue Devils threatened, Pre-Flight got hot and pulled out in front. On Friday night the Pre-Flight cagers journey to Raleigh to tangle with an N. C. State five and Camp Butner, will travel to Chapel Hill on Saturday night to tackle with the once beaten Cloudbusters. The soldiers inci dentally handed the Cadets their lone loss.

Sports FROM THE EMININE ANGLE By Laura Parker Chi O's Win Hockey Crown ... Climaxing the fall hockey season, tne -Um Umegas triumphed over a strong team from Spencer Dorm 3 to 2 in the final game of the schedule Chi Omega surged into an early lead as Jeff Foster made two goals. Anne Christian quickly followed with one for Spencer, and at the half the score stood at 2 to 1. In the second half. Grace Brewster, Chi O manager, made what proved to be the game-winning goal, and ended the day's scoring for Chi Omega. Spencer fought valiantly to offset the early Chi Omega lead, and in the closing minutes, Joyce Fowler scored for Spencer, but the game end ed at 3 to 2, giving the s Chi O's the league championship. - ! Random Notes: . . . Nothing is defin ite on it yet, but attempts are now un der way to stage a water pageant sometime later in the winter. Recent ly a Christmas water pageant was pre sented at Greensboro by the girls at W.C. Two members of the UNC fac ulty, Miss Ruch and Miss Blanchette, and two students, Anne Hodges and Margaret Eller, were invited. All four brought back glowing reports, so un der the supervision of Miss Ruch, a somewhat similar pageant is now un derway here. Incidentally, Prince Nufer, manager of co-ed swimming intra-murals, once had a leading role in a Woman's Col lege pageant. . . . Latest name to be added to the Woman's Athletic Asso ciation placque for hockey is that of Chi Omega . . . a placque is kept for all major sports, and each year the name of the winning team is added . . . the placques were first given in 1940, and the present ones hold spaces for the names of winning teams through 1949.
