The Tar Babies will also be represented in these sports but in only one case do they meet the same school as the varsity. The pre liminary game at Duke Satur day night will be the only en gagement that the Tar Babies will have at the same school with the varsity. - The basketball team -will at tempt to revenge itself for the 36-14 defeat handed it by the Blue Devils last Saturday week in the Tin Can. Comparative scores of the two teams do not indicate that the Blue Devils have such a large margin of vic tory over the varsity, although they do show an unfavorable margin. The Southern Conference championship boxers will en deavor to add to their string of victories when they meet the Florida mitmen in Gainesville. The Florida aggregation is re ported as having another strong team to put up against the Tar Heels this year. Last year the 'Gators were one of the strong est contenders for the conference crown and a close match is an ticipated by Coach Rowe. The wrestlers will have their second Big Five meet of the week tomorrow night when they meet the N. C. State matmen in the Tin Can. The Tar" Heels have just returned from a vic tory over the Davidson Wildcats by a 14-12 count and another close match is expected when they meet State. The Tar Babies will send a team against the Blue Imps as a preliminary to the Carolina Duke tilt in the Bull City. The Carolina frosh lost on February 1 to the Duke frosh quintet by a 36-19 score, and will be out for revenge when they meet to morrow night. Both the freshman wrestlers and boxers will send teams against the Oak Ridge Cadets tomorrow night when they meet in the Tin Can. This is the only meet for the frosh mat and mit men for "this week.

"Georgia" and "Georgia Tech' ' winners in last week's games, are to be the opponents. "Georgia" is slated for the role of irresistible force. The stel lar varsity backs, Branch and Nash, and the stout freshman Croom have made the "Georgia" backfield an irresistible force in two games previously played. House, veteran, broke his arm yesterday and will be out dur ing the remainder of winter practice. "Georgia Tech" is thought by many to have the strongest line of any of the winter practice teams, and will have the role of immovable object in this inter esting battle. Blackwood and Fysal, letter guards, with a strong freshman, Allen, constitute a real bulwark at center. Sharkey and Collins, tackles, and Nichols, end, all giants, were among the most outstanding of last year's fresh man line crop. "Red" Parsley, letter end, rounds out a great line. The teams will be holding their first battle of the regular six-week schedule, to make the game all the more interesting. "Georgia Tech" has its own backfield strength, and will like wise expect to make things hot for "Georgia" in a ball-carrying way. , The "Jackets" showed their offensive power with a crushing 18-0 win from "Virginia" last week, in which the outstanding stars were Bill Suggs, 190-pound fullback, and Chuck Erickson, sprinting halfback, who is never down -until pinned flat. , When Chicago established its cotton exchange, it made Hous ton the delivery point. New York and New Orleans followed and the Houston-Galveston mar ket quickly became the world's greatest. LEADS Picked Up Here and There ' by Will Yarborough . , Wherein We Disagree Condemnation of the spirit exhibited here at the recent Carolina-Duke basketball game by Herbert O'Keef, columnist and sports editor of the Duke Chronicle,' shows that either O'Keef is undertaking his peri odical attack against everything existing here or he is attempting to inveigle the Tar Heel column ists into a controversy. V Observers of the actions of student spectators know that there was nothing in the booing and hissing at the Duke game indicating feeling against the visiting team; The same might have happened had Carolina been playing Davidson, State, Wake Forest, or any other team. At the time of the hissing Caro lina was behind and the students thought that the referee's deci sions favored Duke. There is nothing in such actions to com mend. We, along with editor Holder, deplore it. But for O'Keef to wave the red flag and say that Duke doesn't feel like lowering itself to such a plane demonstrates only prejudice against Carolina, on hie part. Caustic remarks in his column last year irritated us slightly. Claims of the sport department there last spring that Duke was justly entitled to several cham pionships held at that time by Carolina amused us. O'Keef 's remark that the spirit shown by the student body here, at the Duke game was the rottenest he had ever been forced to witness is sheer non sense. Let him hark back to the boxing bouts last winter. Do not misunderstand us. We are offering no defense of the students' actions in hissing the referee's decisions, but we mere ly attempt to correct impres sions which readers may gain from reading O'Keef's column. This is re-opening what may be an old sore with the Chron icle's columnist, but we happen to be acquainted with certain tendencies of the Wilmington boy to exaggerate. And Another Thing In the editorial response to O'Keef's column the remarks of a "staunch supporter of Univer sity teams" stated that Caro lina basketball teams were un popular in Atlanta. We aren't going into the testimonial busi ness, but we venture to say that Tar Heel teams are. as popular in Atlanta as any other, except ing Tech. We have always been received . enthusiastically down there. Followers of the team thjnk that these receptions are evidences of the popularity our teams enjoy in Atlanta. House Is Injured In Practice Game A special attraction was pre sented to a stadium 'entirely empty of spectators yesterday afternoon when the members of the monogram club and the members of the squad without letters, staged a prologue to the annual game played for the benefit of the Monogram Club, which is to be played in March. The scrimmage, which lasted for thirty minutes, was due largely to the fact that the members of the Monogram Club were at the stadium in uniform for the pur pose of having a picture taken. About two minutes prior to the closing whistle, Henry House, while making a beauti ful end run, was thrown sudden ly to the ground and was carried from the field with a broken arm. This was the 'only serious casualty of the game.

BOXING TEAM IS LAGIQNG BANTAM IN FLORIDA MEET Team in Good Shape on Eve of Bouts With Powerful South ern Team; 12 Men Make Trip. (By E. B. Shemwell) With a squad of 12 men picked to make the trip to Florida, the Tar Heel varsity boxing team had a vigorous workout yester day afternoon in the Tin Can. Captain Archie Allen looked unusually good in the ring, and knocked his sparring partners around in a way that looked bad for Florida and South Carolina. After four fast rounds in the ring, Captain Allen worked out with the bags for a few minutes that showed his condition, which might be pronounced perfect. Goodridge looked as good as ever in the ring, and showed rare form. Hoke Webb worked several fast rounds, and showed the large number of spectators that Coach Rowe has no short age of first-class reserves. His overhand right looked especially dangerous, and his left was good too. Another prospect for next year's team who showed up well was Tom Parsons. Parsons was a good freshman fighter last year, but this year has been un able to come out on account of a . knee injury, yesterday he worked out a fast round, and looked good. . Little Harry Sheffield, the lit tle flyweight with the big fists, was looking like a million, and is apt to do things down in the land of sunshine. Sheffield has Jost only one fight this year, a close decision to Washington and Lee. He lost a judgesLde cision after having floored his man three times. Add Warren was on the job working out the heavies, and is expecting to get them in prime shape. Coach Crayton Rowe took the following 12 men with him: Sheffield and Cohen in the 125 pound -division ; Goodridge and Farris, 135 pounds ; Captain Allen and Webb in the 145 class; Davis, 126 pounds ; Warren 175 pounds; Koenig, unlimited, and Smathers, Avery and Rosenfeldt in the heavier weights. The team left last night and will fight Florida Saturday night and the South Carolina Gamecocks Mon day. Reformers in Boston are working through the state legis lature to outlaw the professional boxing game. v . :l...v.-x:.-.:-:-:-:-.-::-AvwA ss&.-y, .- x-: : :;::-:-:-:-:-: ::-: :-:-:.:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:A..

Varsity Wrestlers Down Davidson 14-12 In a close and hotly contested match, the Tar Heel matmen downed Davidson by the score 14-12 in the Davidson gym Wed nesday. The outstanding match of the night was the exciting scrap in which Stallings, unde feated Tar Heel 125-pounder, threw his man in 3 minutes, 25 seconds. Ferguson, Carolina 175-pounder, lost his first fight of the season when he lost a close time decision to Warren of Davidson. Cowper won his fight with Christenburg, David son 165-pound man, in a thrill ing extra period match. In the 125-pound division, Bell of Carolina, lost a close time de cision to Cowan, while Albright, Tar Heel 135-pounder, beat Brown of Davidson on time. Tsumas of Carolina won a time decision over Thad Brock, Dav idson's all-state end, wfhile Houghton lost by time to Bud Raker, another Wildcat . grid star. TEAM Ti HANGE ATTACK FOR CAGE GMIE WITH DUKE To Launch Counter-Offensive Against High Scoring Blue Devil. Quintet; Showed Scor ing Power Against Loyola. The Tar Heel backetball team is planning to turn the tables and launch a counter-offensive against the. fast Duke quint when the two teams hold their second meeting of the year in Durham Saturday night. The Tar Heels, without a vet eran forward, played mostly defensive ball in the first Duke game. Duke won, by the un expected margin of 35-14. Coach Jim Ashmore now is planning new tactics for Satur day,, night's; contest, which is slated to start at 8:30 o'clock. And those who have followeid the; Tar Heels closely think the. sensational 14-point rally against , the strong Loyola quint Wednesday night , may be a strong sign that that will be precisely what the Tar Heels will do against Duke. .That 14-point rally, which in nine -minutes brought the Tar Heels from the short end of a 22-11 count to the long end of a 25-22 count, was the first great offensive drive the Tar Heels have shown all season. Sup porters are hoping it gave them confidence, and will start them on the offensive after the fast Duke club, matching Duke's speed and drive with speed and drive of their own. .' Neiman and Greene, for wards, shared - honors in that drive with Harper, regular cen ter, arid Marpet and Brown, reg ular guards. This combination, pairing the fastest floormen of the Tar Heel forwards, will undoubtedly, be seen, in action against Duke, al though Sandy .Dameron, defen sive star, may; get the call at one forward in place of Greene.
