UP Nominee Defeats
Walker By 99 Votes
Vance Fills Post Left By McKenzie;
Other Officers Take Over Duties
Charlie Vance was elected president of the student body last
Wednesday by a 99 vote margin. Vance, the University Party
nominee, defeated Bill Walker who was running as an independent.
The third candidate, Walt Brinkley was eliminated in an earlier
election. The run-off election was requested by Walker after
Vance received only a plurality in the first election.
Charlie Fulton, chairman of the
Elections Committee of the Student
Legislature, has announced that the
final tabulation was 753 votes for
Vance and 654 votes for, Walker. The
vote in Everett was 66 to 49 in favor
of Vance; in the "Y" it was 359 to
216 in favor of Vance: at Swain it
was 257 to 116 in favor of Walker; at
the Medical School it was 63 to 16 in
favor of Vance; and at Kenan it was
149 to 116 in favor of Vance.
Jimmie Wallace received nine write-
in votes and Walt Brinkley received
one. These had, however, no official
standing.
Takes Over Office
Vance takes over the office imme
diately. He succeeds Bill McKenzie,
who resigned and left school due to
poor health. Pete Pully, the new vice
president, has already taken over the
office left vacant by Dick Ford.
' Vance comes from Winston-Salem.
He recently returned to Carolina af
ter serving in the army. ' While on
campus before, he held many impor
tant offices including Speaker of the
Legislature. He and jhe other newly
elected officers will serve until the

Old Twelfth Man Pep
Reborn In Tremendous
Fetzer Field Rally
The stage was set last night for
today's classic between the Tar Heels
&nd Duke with a tremendous bonfire
pep rally held on Fetzer Field. More
than 2,000 students attended the big
gest rally of the season which started
at the Y Court with the University
band leading the torchlight parade
down through town, past the women's
dorms, and on to Fetzer Field where
some of the finest examples of that
Carolina twelfth man spirit were displayed.

Underdog Tar Heels May
Spring Upset Of Season
More Than 40,000 May Attend Classic;
Carolina Squad Plagued By Injuries
By Irwin Smalhvood
With a crowd of more than 40,000 expected to be present, Caro
lina's Snavely-coached footballers will pay a visit to Duke stadium
this afternoon at 2 :30 o'clock, and the annual classic grid skirm
ish between the arch rival Tar Heels and Blue Devils will be
reeled off as the climax to the first peacetime season in four years.
The battle today, which finds the charges of Coach Eddie Cam
eron keyed high, will be the tilt that will send one of the schools
ahead in the won lost column of the over quarter-century rivalry.
Both institutions have won 14 games, five of the Blue Devils tri
umphs having come since 1940, when the UNC lads last turned
the trick, 6-3.
Duke will be in the favored posi
tion for the tussle, on the basis of
their season record, but as has been
shown many times in the past, rec
ords don't mean much to the players
ot either side, lhe lar ieels are
rated in the best position to turn the
trick since they fought the Blue
Devils to a 13-all deadlock back in
1942.
Two Wins In Ten Years
A Carolina football team has not
been able to beat the Dukesters but
twice in the past 10 years, although
they held the foes from Durham to
a 13-13 tie once.
, For the afternoon, it promises to
be an interesting game, if nothing
else, with the Tar Heels heaving
plenty of passes, and -the Duke
charges ploughing away at the tough
Carolina line. The Duke offense, long
heralded, will be a big test for' the
UNC forward wall, coached so ably
by Max Reed. The Carolina line
fought Tennessee tooth and nailj
through four rough quarters, yielding
only seven first downs, one of which
was in the air. It was the line, too,
that made such a good showing
against Georgia Tech iiTthe collegiate
opener September 29, and again
against Wake Forest this past week
end. Coach Snavely will be sending two
backfield men in to start today who
were in that .same lineup when the
opening whistle blew last year. That
pair is Bobby Warren, tailback, and
Jim Camp, wingback. It was Warren
who engineered the two Carolina
touchdowns last week-end against the
Deacons from Wake Forest, heaving
a pass to Max Cook for one and run
ning around his own left end for the
other. Camp, one of the fastest men
on the team, has been showing up
well in drills, but his spot will, more
than likely be shared with Bob Oh
phant, rugged Marine wingback who
has been a stalwart of the backfield

Legislature Asks
For New Election
Of Frosh Officers
Announcement was made by Char
lie Fulton, temporary chairman of
the Elections Committee, at the Stu
dent Legislature's meeting Thursday
night that a re-election of freshman
officers will be held on Wednesday,
The reason given for this was that
the Elections Committee had over
looked the presence of some 25 fresh
nan Marines on the campus and so
these Marines were unable to cast
their ballots.
The following bills were introduced
to the Legislature and referred to
the Ways and Means Committee for
a report next week: A bill to set up
a committee to organize and conduct
the orientation of new students enter
ing Carolina; a bill to establish an
executive committee of the Student
Welfare Board to take care of the
Board's more important work; and a
motion recommending that the Stu
dent Welfare Board conduct an in
vestigation on the condition of
wages and prices in the Book Ex
change.
Pete Pully announced his resigna
tion as Clerk of the Student Legisla
ture due to his recent election as
Vice-President of the Student Body.
Lorena Dawson was elected to fill the
vacant position.
