Big Eastern Team Added to Tar
Heel Schedule; May Come
The 1930 editionof ihe Tar
Heel cinder path artists will be
confronted with an exceptionally
difficult task injmaintaining their
dual meet record of no defeats
in eight seasons because of the
addition of Penn State to this
year's ' track schedule. Penn
State boasts one of the strong
est teams in the country and in
recent years has riot only main
tained a splendid team record
but has developed a great num
ber of individual performers.
Alan 'Helf rich and Bill Cox rate
among the greatest of the for
mer stars. Last year Offen
hauser equalled these men in
rank when he ran a 4:21 mile
and a 1 :56 half mile in one
afternoon. Eenn State's four
mile relay team last year broke
the Penn Relay championship
record for that distance, and
this year's team will number
three members of this team with
Bill Cox lacking. Both Carolina
and Penn State have been noted
for exceptional distance runners
in cross country and track,1 the
former leading the southern con
ference and the latter the I. C
A .A., -A.. .A..
According to' University ath
letic officials the scheduling of
Penn State is a tacit aeknowl
edgement on the part of the Uni
versity athletic, council of the
: splendid work done ; by former
Carolina track teams and an ex
pression of confidence in those
men now on the varsity' squad
who are being looked to for a
continued maintenance of " the
spirit which 'has carried the
team through so great a number
of successful seasons. This
meet with, Penn State is to be a
home and home meet, which
means that the Nittany Lions
( will bring their great team here
either ;next spring or the year
after, the place being undecided
; as yet. -
An interesting sidelight, on
this meeting of the Tar Heels
with Penn State is the fact that
Coach Nate Cartmell, famous
- amateur and prof essional sprint
er who coached at Carolina be
tween 1911 and 1914, Vis now
track coach at Penn State: Cart-
mell's name will be familiar to
many Carolina alumni of that
period.

at Emerson field Friday after
noon at 3:30.
The Tar Heels usually start the backfield combination pictured above. This combine has proved
about the smoothest starting foursome the Tar Heel mentors have found, and, with the possible
exception of Wyrick, will be the quartet that will open against Georgia in Kenan stadium here
Left to right are Strud Nash, right half ; Yank Spaulding, fullback; Pete Wyrick, quarter; and
Jimmy Ward, left half. .All played.' in' -the memorable Georgia Tech victory except Wyrick, and
acquitted themselves in rare style. r v .
Nash was one of the Heels' most consistent backs last season, and with a good start this year,
looks to be headed stright for All-Southern. Spaulding is a great man at backing up the line, a
fine pass receiver and interference runner, and a hard driver. Wyrick is a brainy field general
and a stellar interference leader. Ward, -playing his final season, is leading the North; Carolina
college backs in point-scoring, and is a triple-threater. . ..."
Heels Use Strong Offense To
Keep Grid Foes From Scoring
Ward Still Leads
Four of the South's premier
collegiate hurdlers wiir feature
a contest, between the halves
of ; the Carolina-Georgia foot
ball game, next Saturday after
noon." " Coach Fetzer's plan is very
uniaue in that an event of this
nature has never been staged
during' a football game at the
University before.
Heath Whittle of Davidson,
considered best in the south,
and Bill Perry of Carolina will
face each other for the , third
time. At the last state cham
pionship meet , Whittle : beat
Perry by less than a foot.
Besides these two there will
be an entry from the Univer
bi'v nf Gporcia and another
hJ A SJ "- w O ,
from Davidson, who - will en
erase in hurdling.
Not only is this event for, the
amusement of the football fans
but ' interest in hurdling is ex
pected to be stimulated among
the students.
In 1900 Carolina won six foot
ball games, tied one, and was
beaten byk -Virginia for the only
loss of the season.

form a great quartet of ball

Smith is a constant threat from
his flank position.
But tne Tar Heels have a sort
of super-scoring machine that
functions on the theory that the
best defense is the super-offense.
The team ran up seven
touchdowns on 1 Wake Forest,
and Eddie Brietz, Associated
Press sports writer, lauded them
as the "team of a hundred
They ran up seven more on
Maryland, and Curley Byrd, Old
Line coach, called them the
greatest team in the South At

These Tar Heels have, scored
exactly 109 points in . three
games and had just one touch

to the greatness- of Stumpy
Thomason, .Georgia Tech's All-

The secret of all this scoring
power lies in a wealth of back-
field material. Head Coach
Chuck Collins hurled exactly 10
backs at Georgia Tech. It has
been likewise all season, onry
more so. Coach Collins believes
in a fresh backfield running top
speed, all steam and power.

At one time the University
buildings were for rent.
When Georgia and North
Carolina meet this week-end
in wnat is predicted to be
a death strucrerle. four coach
es of one great family will watch
silently upon the sidelines. Re
gardless of who wins this com
ing tilt, which -the sports tribe!
are saying will show the 1929
southern conference champs in
action, a portion pfhe credit
arid praise for the style of play
must travel up and over to Notre
Dame and center upon the foot
ball famous Kriute Rockne.
Chuck Collins, Bill Cerney,
Frank Thomas and Harry Mehre
all broke into" gridiron renown
under the tutoring of Rockne.
The clash of the two Notre
Dame-coached teams, playing
the same general : tactics, and
showing relatively the same po
tential strength, should be inter
esting. '.
There is just one difference in
the Tar Heel and Bulldog at
tacks. Harry Mehre down in
Peachland 'teaches the Notre
Dame system, shift and all, ex
actly as the master Rockne.
Head Coach Collins up in Tar
Heelia has left the shift off and
adapted the system slightly.
Collins and Cerney starred at
Notre Dame in 1922, 1923- and
1924. Mehre played his last sea
son i the year before. He was
counted one of the greatest cen
ters Knute Rockne ever turned
out and played on the - great
Southbend team of 1920 that
blanked the Army 27-0 one Sat
urcjay and the following Tues
day did he same thing to Rut
gers, only by a seven-touchdown
margin. Collins was regular
end on the great Four Horse
men eleven of 1924. Thomas
was Notre iDame's quarterback
in 1922,
The team that Collins ; and
Cerney will send on the field
Saturday, is a culmination and
product of four years of hard
preparation. The Carolina men
tors dfd not, when they first came
to the University of North Caro
lina, build for the present. They
bided their time and stuck with
almost hard-headed persistency
to a system which they believed
would, someday lift North Caro
'lina above the ordinary run of
football teams.
With the football season ap
proaching its climax in the game
with the Georgia Bulldogs here
Saturday, athletics seem to be
reaching the peak usually at
tained during the fall quarter.
The various sports are holding
early practice in preparation for
the more strenuous work which
will come later. ,
The boxing team which won
the southern conference crown
or the f last two out of three
years is working out daily under
the coaching of Creighton Rowe,
he man who put boxing on the
map nere at tne university.
Prospects are good in practically
all divisions except the heavy
weight. However, Coach Rowe
hopes to fill this post before the
season opens,' with some hefty
fellow from the football squad.
An analysis of the team shows
that every weight with the ex
ception of the above mentioned
heavy division has a varsity man
from last year back to fill it.
Thus it seems from the way the
boys are showing up in the early
workouts that the Heels will
have a bunch of pugs fighting
this winter who will make a
strong bid for another cham
pionship.
The wrestling team is also
working daily in. the Tin Can
and the prospects are looking
good. Practically the entire per
sonnel of last year's team is back
in school and augmented by some
good men from last year's fresh
man aggregation , the mat artists
should prove stronger than they
were last season.
While the usual early basket
ball practice has not officially
begun, several of the men from
last year's varsity and freshman
squads have been working down
in, the Tin; Can and getting their
eye on thelasket in anticipation
of the beginning of real work.
" The tennis squad, faced with
a tough schedule and weakened
by the loss of Shapiro and other
men from last year's team,' is
working daily under the eyes of
Coach Kenfield. While the star
material of last year is partially
missing, such men as Yeomans,
Scott and Merritt can be count
ed upon to form the nucleus of
a team which will prove danger
ous to all -opponents. Ione of
the places are filled, sinee the
rankings' are yet to. be .estab
lished by. means of , competitive
play. All men interested in go
ing out for tennis are urged to
do so as soon as possible.
Bo Shepard, the new head of
intramural athletics, has his de
partment working smoothly as
the second week of the annual
tag football race progresses.
Several of the dormitory teams
have been showing potential
strength in the early games.
New Dorms, always a team to be
feared, is a threat again this fall.
The Pi Kappa Phis, winners of
the campus championship last
year, have a strong aggregation
though they will be pushed for
honors by several other smooth
working combinations.
Fall baseball practice is being
held under the direction of Coach
Ashmore and every afternoon a
score or more candidates are
working down on the diamond at
the far end of the intramural,
field. Interest is keen and the
men are taking the work seri
ously with the idea of develop
ing both batting and fielding by
this daily practice. Several of
the men from last year's varsity
are on hand every day and their
number-is augmented by mem
bers of last year's freshman
team and by men going out for
baseball for the first time.
The cross country season
which opens shortly will find the
Tar peels in top shape and ready
to make a strong bid for another
southern championship. The loss
of several stars may have weak
ened the team to some extent
but the acquisition of several ex
cellent performers from - last
year's freshmen will probably
make up for this.
Coach Ranson has been put
ting his men through a daily set
of conditioning exercises and
they are fast getting into shape
for the five mile grind which will
take place when theyv open the
season in a short time.
Fall track practice has been '
begun and many of last spring's
stars are taking workouts every
afternoon.
A rapid survey thus shows
that athletics at the University
are in full swing though the sea
son is on for only one or two
teams. The early practices which
have been instituted here during
the last few years have been
very valuable and this season,
from advance indications, they
will probably bring several po
tential stars to light. '
