MeGeelian Talks Of
Fumbled Ball Rule
Bill ' Cox, Greensboro News
sports editor, pays compliment
to the N. C. band. In his col
umn he says:
s Will McGeehan, the well
known stick of caustic who re
ports events for the New York
Herald-Tribune, saw the Tar
Heels beat Tech, and Will come
out flatfooted and say that Caro
lina outplayed the losers all the
way around.
"He said in part, 'If there is
any snappier band in the coun
try than the Blue and White
uniformed band of the Univer
sity of North Carolina, your cor
respondent will travel any dis
tance to see and hear it.' The
tooters even outcharged and
outsmarted the enemy; an added
honor, some claim.
. "McGeehan doesn't tell the
teal tale.. The--Carolina band
probably won that game. v They
have a fellow down there who
leads the grand march .with an
undulated pipe in his mouth,
McCorkle is the name. Here
they come first thing yousee is
the pole the major totes; he
swings it like it was nothing but
a pole a trick in that. That's
not half of it.
"The Tech team probably be
" came so confused when they saw
that guy breaking training with
a pipe in his mouth that they
didn't recover until it was too
late. Pipe smoking drum majors
are scarce, so scarce there is
only one in existence. The sight
is disconcerting to citizens as
well as players. What' would
happen should the pipe fall from
his mouth shudders perish
the thought. .
"That bird certainly takes
chances. Anything could hap
pen, but he marches on and on
and never misses a lick puff
for puff and beat for beat. The
experts could trace the victory
to his rank bravado. McCorkle
, and his tooters scared Tech stiff.
The rest was easy.
I "In the fight racket they call
that putting the bad eye on 'em.
Teams have been known to try
the same in football, but it was
never as subtle as this. We look
for a wave of pipe smoking drum
majors. Bigger and better pipes
will probably settle the issue."

MRS. MOSHER TO ATTEND
MEETING OF A. A. U. W.
Mrs. E. R. Mosher of Chapel
Hill, who was recently elected
president of the North Carolina
division of the American Asso
ciation of University Women,
will be in Greenville on Thurs
day to attend the first meeting
of the association branch there.
This chapter, with 30 charter
members, was organized in May.
For this reason its members are
particularly fortunate in having
Mrs. Mosher speak to them on
the objectives of the organiza
tiqdi at their initial gathering.
Mrs. Mosher presided over, the
meeting of the executive, board
in High Point last Saturday and
will doubtless outline to the
Greenville group some of the
policies and plans formulated at
that convention.
DISTINGUISHED GRAD
VISITS CHAPEL HILL
Johnny Branch, whose name
has been appearing in the sports
pages all over the country, was
the subject of an article by W.
O. McGeehan in yesterday's
New York Herald-Tribune. His
column, "Down the Line," which
is syndicated throughout the
United States and Canada, dis
cussed the new football rule
which limits the penalty for a
fumble.
He cited our game with Geor
gia Tech as showing the effect
of the rule. After stating that
fans and rooters at football
games will probably dislike this
rule for it will rob them of much
exciting melodrama, he contin
ued to say:;
v "An incident showing the ef
fect of this ruling occurred on
the previous day,-when the Uni
versity of North Carolina beat
Georgia Tech in one of the most
truculent games that has been
staged ' since they reformed the
game of intercollegiate football.
"Young Johnny Branch, the
quarterback of the Tar Heels,
scooped up a loose ball. Pre
viously the fleet-footed Branch
had swept through the Golden
Tornado like a counter whirl
wind. With all the Tornado
- . - -
swirling about, him, he was able
to twist and tear his way
through to a touchdown.
"Branch received the ball and
waited just for a second. Then
he grinned and moved rapidly
in the direction of ihe goal line
of Georgia Tech. He knew the
rule. In fact, throughout that
game he showed that Ke knew
nearly everything concerning the
game from the fundamentals,
which they teach in the prelim
inary practice, to the greater
puzzles that the Tules committee
invent during the winter.
"When he had cleared the last
remnant of the Golden Tornado
he stopped abruptly and laughed
as he tossed the ball back in the
direction of the point when he
recovered the fumble. It was a
gesture that said: 'The Tar
Heels could have had another
touchdown, if it had not been
for that fool rule.' It is ny no
tion that all the impartial and
many of the partial spectators
agreed that it was a fool rule.
"It is written that in the
United States it is easier to get
a fool law or a fool rule passed
than it is to have it repealed.
But it is my notion that as the
season progresses there will be
enough examples of the anti
climax it has brought "to this
game so that the rules committee
will be doing plenty of reconsid
ering on this particular point.
It will be made quite apparent
that this was one of the most
radical changes in the game
since they started shuffling the
goal posts back and forth. The
committee should rule that it was
'noble experiment,' but that,

Mr. Noe, also a graduate of

Coaches Collins and. Cerney and j
spoke to the team. - Coach Col

team, but 35 men who played to

that they certainly played o-
