I Big Track Meet1 On Deck Saturday7 Baseballers Clash With Duke Tomorrow TUESDAY, MAY 29, 1945 PAGE THREE :aro!iiniai Seeks- RatM Lmp Win Ovr Devil. Trackmen Turn Attention To. Large Field Expected For Ninth Meet After taking their third win of the season Saturday by turning back Hunter Field, Ga., 57-42, Carolina's men of the cinder trails turn all their attention this week to the Ninth An nual Carolinas Track and Field Cham pionships slated to be reeled off here in Fetzer stadium this week-end. "This will be the biggest track meet held at Carolina since the In door classic last winter," Coach Dale Hanson said yesterday, "and it wil - be one of the best of the spring season for the fans." Entries are expected from Duke, Carolina, South Carolina Camp Peary, Hunter Field, Cherry Point and possibly Pre-Flight, and many other contestants are antici pated from various schools and col leges of the Carolinas. Included in the entries will be Bova and Shrader, who. led Hunter Field "here last Saturday; Montgomery, Fen ton and Hansen of Cherry Point; La Hue, Irwin. Dibble and Nordin, of Duke; and maybe Charlie Beetham of the Pre-Flight school. Beetham may team up with the Cadets in their run ning, but the members of the Pre Flight school entering may have to run unattached. Montgomery, of Cherry Point, did J.3 feet five inches in the indoor meet here last winter. The Carolina squad in its entirety will be entered in the meet, which will have a maximum of five entries from each school, and although first places for the Tar Heels are hard to predict with the large field of entries, Coach Ranson's lads may be high in the scoring if they are able to comer up with a sufficient number of second, third and fourth places. In' the' meet "Saturday with Hunter Field, Carolina (had things their own way most of the way, although many of the races, namely the 880, mile and two mile runs, were very close. Bobby Dodson, lanky Carolina mid dle distance man, came up with his best performance of . the year to take the half mile over Hunter Field's jfav ored Bova. Dodson led most of the way and accepted a last 220 challenge successfully to do the two laps in 1:59.9. Forrest Leathers, Carolina miler, lost in the last 220 to Bova as Dodson won in the half. Bova put on a good kick in the last yards to pull ahead of Leathers by about four yards by the time he crossed the finish line. The two mile run was about the same, Castle of Hunter Field beating Carolina's Doug Erath in the last 220 yards. Whitey Holden was right be hind Castle and Erath for a close third spot. In the dashes Carolina had about its easiest and most successful time of the year, with Don Clayton and Ted Haigler leading the way. Clay ton took the 100 with Haigler run ning second, and Haigler came up m the 220 to place first. Morman, of Carolina, finished third in both the dash events. By previous agreement, neither the hurdles or the pole vault counted m the final tally of points. The summary: 100-yard dash won by Clayton, UNC; second, Haigler, UNC; third, Morman, UNC.

Out of the 25 teams that have par ticipated in the event, none have fin ished their schedule without suffer ing a setback. The two teams that hold the distinction of having only one reverse charged against them are the Phi Kaps and Sigma Chi. Incidentally these two well-rounded softball clubs are seeded tops in the play-offs. Setting the earlier season pace were the softballers from Vance Dorm, but later the V-12ers dropped a couple of unexpected games to end the season Finals of Mural Cinder Event To Be Staged on Fetzer Today Following qualifying rounds held by individual teams last week ap proximately twenty squads opened competition in the semi-finals of the intramural track meet on Fetzer Field yesterday afternoon and the winning cindermen will advance into the finals at 5:30 today, again on Fet zer Field.

Duke capitalized on Carolina errors last Wednesday here to turn back the locals, 10-4. Coach Bunn Hearn, veteran men- tor, has not voiced a definite choice for the starting hurling duties, but either Chuck Hayne or Red Forrest will undoubtedly get the call. For rest is the loop's leading pitcher with a three and nothing record, and Hayne sports a two and one record. Hayne was the losing pitcher against Duke last week despite his good hurl ing job. Hayne or Forrest Opposing Hayne or Forrest on the hill for Duke will probably be Lefty Griffeth, winner of five Ration league games as against two setbacks. with five-hit pitching in the last meet ing, but the Blue Devil was hit freely by Pre-Flight Saturday as the Cloud- busters downed the Dukesters, 12-8. Carolina's baseballers will be play ing hard, after going all to pieces in the first Duke-Carolina tilt, and judging from performances in the ORD game Friday, the local fielding is back to its usual good state. (Note: In the game with the Tech Hawks from Greensboro, Carolina infielders handled nine chances without a bob ble.) Coach Hearn's lads just had one of those 'bad days' that are bound to come,- and they should be back in their normal form tomorrow that has netted them six wins against two loss es and the Ration loop leadership so far. Same Infield No deviations from the infield com bination of Frazief, Gregory, Thomp son, Hughes and Zientek are antici pated, and the outfield combine of El ger, Fahey and Mullen is also ex pected to remain in the starting role. After the tussle tomorrow, Caro lina will have only three more league encounters on their slate two here and one away. Pre-Flight will be met here Saturday and then a game here and a game there will remain with Duke. These last two games will un doubtedly determine the winner of the She made guns grow cold... and hearts Burn Hot-as she settheWest afire! FRIDAY M o -. "mm Saturday 1945 Ration League bunting. ORD Takes Tilt ' The local nine ended the week's play here on Emerson field Friday by dropping a 9-0 decision to a superior, star-studded Overseas Replacement Depot club from Greensboro, but the Tar Heels showed marked recovery from the spell of erroring of Wed nesday. ORD's Tech Hawks, sporting two former major leaguers and a host of others who are more than ready for the jump, hopped on Red Forrest with their big bats in the second, third and fourth frames for all nine tallies, but after that they were held to just two hits for the final five in nings by Forrest and relief hurler Tommy Andrew. Andrew hurled the last four stanzas and gave up the two safeties. Elger Banged a Triple Carolina put three men on base in the fourth inning with none outr but Red Hughes was caught off third by former Philadelphia Athletic Jim Castiglia. The next two men, Bob Fahey and Al Chappell, fanned to re tire the side. In the sixth hard-hit ting Al Elger connected for a long triple with two down only to die on base as John Gregory fanned before the pitching of Joe Harrincrton. Hughes singled in the ninth and came home on a hard double by Gregory but the lanky ifehortj stop was . nipped at the plate by the fast relay of the ball by the veteran visiting baseball crew. Hughes led the Tar Heels at bat with two for three, and Tommy Thompson, Elger, Gregory and Fa hey each got one base knock. ORD was paced at bat by Castiglia, but such men as Lee Gamble, outfielder with the Cincinnati Reds before en tering the army, and many others added enough hits to the ORD column to make the total 10 before the fray was over. r WALTER WANGER Present V f wedm danced C I y irh YVONNE DeCARLO ROD CAMERON .
