Tuesday, January 28, 1930 far Heel-Pack Gage Tilt In Raleigh Tonight May Hold Key To State Race Carolina And State Both Have Same Standing In Big: Five Chase. DUKE AND DAVIDSON LEAD Ashmore Expected To Send Same Line-up Against 1929 Champions Used Against Dea cons Saturday; Neiman Likely To Start In Place. Of Cleland. Carolina's meeting with the C. State, cagers in . Raleigh tonight will be watched with keen interest by sports observ ers in the state and in the South ern Conference, because of the bearing its outcome will have .on the state title race and its test of the strength of both teams. In the state race Carolina and State, are tied for third - place, with Duke and Davidson hold ing the first two positions, while both the Tar Heels and the State .cagers are looked forward to as strong contenders for the con ference title, which the Wolf pack won last year. While Carolina was .trouncing the Deacon quintet last Saturday . night, the Duke Blue Devils de feated the State cagers 35-31. In games with Washington , and Lee both quints lost by approxi mately the same margin. On the basis of early season-records both teams will enter the fray tonight evenly matched. The game should also throw some light on Carolina's chances for victory in the Duke game next Saturday night. 1 Lack of veterans is the reason for the poor showing made by both Carolina and State thus far this season. The Wolf pack has nnlv Larrv - Hear, stellar for- ' ward, and Maurice Johnson from last year's team,- while the Tar Heels have only Harper, Marpet and Brown. The Wolf pack is without the services of Frank Goodwin, brilliant center, who led them to a Southern Con ference title last year, while the Tar Heels lack even one veteran forward. Coach Ashmore has an nounced that he will probably start the same team that hit such a fast stride against Wake For est last Saturday night, except Dave Neiman, substitute for ward who showed , up so well against the Deacons, may replace Cleland at forward. That team showed. Dameron and Cleland, forwards; Harper, center, and Brown and Marpet, guards. Duke Leads Big Five Duke University's jBlue Devils are leading in the race for Big Five honors with two victories as a result of their squeeze-out, 35-31 victory ov er State Saturday night. The Davidson Wildcats, with a win at the expense of Caro- na in their only game in the J oop, are holding the runner UP position. Carolina and State, each with one loss, are tied for Mrd, and Wake Forest brings up the read with three defeats and no win. Although the Demon Dea cons showed a good deal of improvement in their game, the Tar Heels had little diffi Cl in annexing a 49-19 victory in Raleigh. The play f Marpet and Dameron was krgely responsible for the ne-sided victory. Going into the game as favorites, Duke found the go in2 tough against State's Terrors and needed all their resources to keep in front. The game was hard fought and closi frnr siari in fin- ish- State's inability to make free shots handicapped .them, j Co-Ed Basketball Today: Leaksville Here. Wednesday: Chapel Hill High here.

With three weeks of hard work concluded, four lettermen and four sophomore speedsters are running a neck and neck race for the. honor of carrying Carolrria" colors in the select mile relayj of -the Milrose Games at Madistm Squar Garden, Feb ruary 8. ' ' ' Whether age and experience will win out, or whether youth and ambition will triumph, re mains to be seen. Official try puts, to be held the last of the week, will tell the tale and end the long grind of conditioning, dash work inside the Tin Can, and quarter-mile trials around the big cinder track. The veterans who are making the strongest bids for team places,, are Captain - Dave Nims and Dick Garrett, letter quar-ter-milers ; Minor Barkley, let ter miler, and Ken Gay, letter sprinter. ' Garrett, Nims and Barkley held down three of four posts on the Tar Heel team that won the mile relay at the state cham pionship track meet in Greens boro last spring. Nims does the quarter in 51 flat. Garrett is his closest rival in the Tar Heel camp! Barkley. is a regular miler, good on the quarter-mile also. Gay, star in the 100 and 220, led all Tar Heel track scor ers last spring. There are likewise three mem bers from last year's champion ship freshman half-mile relay team, which came in first in the select Georgia Tech relays. These boys Charlie Farmer, Lionel Weil and Wallace Case give promise of pushing the veterans hard. Farmer especial ly is a great prospect. The Wilmington greyhound did 10 seconds on the 100, 21.4 on the 220,' and 51.2 on the 440 as a freshman, to give himself a rat ing as one of the greatest sprint prospects seen in the south. Dale Ransoh, who is coaching the relay candidates, said today that'! five men" would probably make the "trip, and that there was y possibility that some of the men would be entered in in dividual events at the Milrose" games. v Sigma Nus Score 58 Yesterday the Sigma Nu bas ketball team literally walked from 'the Chi Psi team &8-15 in a game at the Tin Can. Johnson tallied 32 points for Sigma lu. Campbell, Chi Psi, played well, scoring all of the losers' points. Allen also played a good game for Sigma Nu as did Griffith. The lineup: Chi Psi (15) Sigma Nu (58) Avery Allen (15) R. F. Mitcham Johnson (32) L. F. Glascock . ... Griffith (8) C. Hovis : Wright (3) R. G. Campbell (15) .. .. .. Skinner (2) L. G.

The University boxing team, holders of the Southern Con ference title, today get down to hard work in preparation for three engagements that the Tar Heels are, to hold with. Confer ence opponents in the brief spell of eight days. V. M. I. will be met at Lexing ton Saturday night. Duke will be taken on here February 4 in one of the classic events of next week's North Carolina sport schedule. : Virginia will be met at Charlottesville February 8. " To date the team has won from Washington and Lee and V. P. I., both by the count of 5 - 2. . .. Coach Creyton Rowe has the men in good'shape to begin the week's work for V. M. I., except for the scrappy little 125-pound-er, Harry Sheffield, who was kept out of the V. P. I. meet due to a bad arm. Sheffield's substitute fought gamely but couldnt quite match V. P. I.'s Towler, and the Tar Heels drop ped one of two matches here. Sheffield's arm showed im provement over the weekend, and it is hoped to have the little blonde blizzard" back in shape for the Cadets. V- Evan Vaughn, the 115-pound- er, with the dynamite punch, the only other loser to V. P. I. was recovering from the bump ed head that rendered it im possible for him to continue his scrap with V. P. I.'s clever little bantum. He should be in good shape for the Cadet's 115-pound-er. . Captain Allen, Noah Good- ridge, Obie Davis, John War ren, Bill Koenig, all of whom won their fights, are in good shape. Allen and Goodridge looked at the top of their ca reers against V. P. I. Davis, who missed early practice, is fast rounding into shape. Koe- nig, the iootDaii lighter is gaining a ring confidence, that with his" fine form and size and speed, may make him a great heavy. Frosh Will Meet Tough Opponents During This Week With their five-game winning streak stopped abruptly by the Wake Forest Baby Deacons in a game played last Saturday night in' the Raleigh city auditorium, the Tar Babies began practice in an effort to start all over again. Saturday the freshman were unable to hold the ball. This may have been caused by the very-poor lighting system in the city .auditorium, but the fact re mains that the Tar Babies lost many golden opportunities to score. Coach Rex Enriglit will drill the boys in holding on to the ball and perfecting their for mations. In all probability there will be a light ' practice game at the Tin Can. This week the freshmen will tackle the hardest part of their schedule. There are no less than three games carded for this week. Tonight the Tar Babies will travel to Raleigh to take on the Wolflets on the State floor. The Wolflets are said to have a fine quintet, having defeated the Baby Deacons 19-21. Coach Enright will take about 20 men on this trip. Thursday the frosh travel to Durham to take on the Durham Bull Dogs in a return contest. Recently the Tar Babies administered a sound defeat to the Durham quint, but the Bull Dogs are traveling at a fast rate, and a good contest should follow. Saturday will be the big night.

Sports (By Browning Roach) The Wildcats of Kentucky proved themselves a dangerous foe last week by trimming the Mississippi Aggies twice in sue sion and bringing their total up to four games won and none lost. This gives them a tie with Washington and Lee for confer ence leadership. The Genarals retained their prestige by a sec ond victory over the Virginia Cavaliers. The three other un defeated squads, Georgia, Ala bama and Sewanee, held a firm grip on their positions, and the general standings of the teams remained practically unchanged. Alabama, after being idle in conference play since the two early season victories, reopened her attack with a win over Vandy Thursday. Georgia again eked but a last minute, victory over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets when Captain Henry Palmer sank the deciding shot just before the final whistle. N. C. State, 1929 champs, suc- ceeded in putting V. M. I. down Monday in the first game for the Cadets, but lacked the punch necessary to whip Duke Thurs day and the 1929 runners-up won 35-31. Tennessee returned to prom inence with victories over Geor gia Tech and Auburn. Mary land, fresh from a victory over Navy, continued her stride arid walloped V. P. I. Saturday 44jmet Davidson and Wake Forest. to 27. The Tech outfit lost to Virginia 28 to 21 earlier in the week. Mississippi, Tulane and Florida took a rest from inter collegiate activity and merely engaged in a few practice games to keep in shape. Results for non-conference games engaged in last week are : South Carolina 29, Woffard 23 ; South Carolina 20, Furman 39 ; North Carolina 44, Wake For est 18; Virginia 36, Richmond 35; Clemson 51, Woffard 21; V.
