INTEREST SHOWN
M INDOOR MEET
Enthusiasm Has Become Wide
spread Over South; Track
Luminaries To Compete.
Widespread interest all over
the south is "being evidenced in
connection with the coming in
door track meet, to be held in
the Tin Can Saturday, March 8.
The project lias grown from the
stage of an invitation meet into
an accredited southern confer
ence indoor track event, which
compares with the basketball
tournament In Atlanta, the box
mg tournament in unarlottes
ville, and the wrestling tourna
ment .at V. M. I.
This will he the first meet of
the, kind ever held at the Uni-
versity. Unusually long straight
aways will aid the three hundred
contestants in their attempts to
lower southern intercollegiate
time records. Saw dust pits for
the pole-vaulters and high-jumpers
complete the equipment
which reproduce as nearly as
possible the favorable conditions
of an outdoor meet.
In addition to the ten college's
and universities entered in the
intercollegiate -events, there will
be a large number of athletes
from high schools and prepara
tory schools of both North Caro
lina and Virginia. ' "l''t vr": ;
Several stars are attracting
the focus of public attention
upon their respective events.
Hamm, of Georgia Tech, holder
of the worlds record in the broad
jump, arid also holder of the
southern intercollegiate record
for the 220-yard dash, is the in
dividual star of the meet.
Among the freshman entries,
Lauck of Virginia and Jensen of
North Carolina are expected to
provide one of the most interest
ing races in their three-quarter
mile contest, having finished first
and second respectively in this
event at the Virginia indoor
meet.
Officials include J. V. Mulli
gan, a nationally known starter;
W. A. Alexander, head football
coach at 'Georgia Tech, as ref
eree; and other notable figures
in southern athletics. The Uni
versity loud-speaker with a
special announcer will enable the
spectators to follow more easily
the different events.
Coaches Shifting
Football Players
The Tar Heel football coach
es, looking at the 1930 season,
have begun already to convert
men from one position to an
other. Major changes so far are
the shifting of Hodges and Red
ding, freshman" centers, to
tackle, where both men have
been showing well, and shifting
of Davis from guard to end,
where the fast youngster has
shown real class. All three men
will be seen in Saturday's final
winter battle here between the
Rookies and Monograms.

SPORT RAMBLES
Rovlhae Hamilton
In the Readers' Opinions col
umn of this paper is a letter re
plying to our column in the
Thursday issue. The letter is
signed by a gentleman calling
himself "Carolina" and we be
lieve that it calls for reply.
In the first place, we beg to
assure the gentleman that our
statement of the existing situa
tion between football and the
winter sports is correct. We
have no desire to misrepresent
the facts involved, nor have we
any possible reason for doing
so.
In the second place, this ques
tion is not only one of concern
to the coaches it is a matter
that every student has a right
to know about and to -take in
terest in. As a student in this
University and as an individual
interested in the development of
every sport at Carolina, we feel
that, in presenting the facts to
the student body, we are abso
lutely - within our rights.
If "Carolina" will read the
Thursday column he will see
that, while we admitted that
football is Carolina's most im
portant sport, we emphatically
denied that its importance was
so great that the other sports
must give way before it. We do
not think that any Carolina team
is so unimportant that those who
wish to participate in it may be
denied the right on account of
the desires of another man.
The next criticism made by
the author of the letter is that
as far ai- he knows; there is no
very good football player on
either the basketball or wrest
ling team. He wishes to know
why the coach should wish to
bother with them. - Presumably,
it is because he is interested only
in the development of the foot
ball team, no matter if it is at
the expense of the winter
sports. And, as for the good
football players, which Mr.
Carolina knows nothing about,
we beg to point out that the
wrestling team lost its best
heavyweight to the football
team, and that in addition to be
ing a good wrestler, Mr. Thomp
son is a good football player.
In closing his letter "Caro
lina" accuses us of getting all
hot and bothered over some
thing that doesn't amount to
much. Again we beg to differ
with the gentleman and assure
him that, in our opinion, this
thing amounts to a great deal.
We maintain that every Caro
lina sport is important and that
no coach has the right to hurt
the success of somebody else's
team by robbing him of his ma
terial. And that is what it
amounts to when a man is co
erced from one team to another,
in spite of the fact that the lat
ter is no longer in season. We
are not denying the right of the
football coach to hold winter
practice. We are only denying
his right to inveigle those men
who are useful in some other
sport into taking part in it. As
far as the other 'football players
are concerned we say "go
ahead."
The only way that Carolina
is ever going to amount to any
thing in the field of sports as a
whole is not by the development
of one team, but by the develop
ment of the teams in every field.
The only way that these
teams can be properly developed
is by the cooperation of all the
coaches. And this column
is interested in obtaining
that cooperation chiefly because
we want to see Carolina well
represented in every sport,
rather than in one, and because
CHARLOTTE AND
DURHAM TO BIEET
IN TIM CLASH
High Schools Sleet Tonight In
Tin Can For Class A State
Championship; Spencer-Trenton
Meet For Class B Title
Follows.
Two undefeated quints, Char
lotte high representing the West,
and Durham high carrying the
Eastern colors, will meet here
tonight for the class A basket
ball title of North Carolina. The
feature battle is to be played in
the Tin Can at 8 o'clock.
It will be the first half of a
doubleheader, which will also in
clude a battle between Trenton,
Eastern7 winners, and Spencer
from the West," for the North
Carolina class B title, to begin at
9 o'clock.
Charlotte high, led by Aitken
and McCrachren, ended a
straight line of 12 victories in
the Western conference, with
Saturday night's 17-13 win from
Asheville high. Asheville, fin
ishing with 10 wins to 2 losses,
had defeated every team in the
West but Charlotte, and led the
Wildcats 11-10 at the third turn,
but could not match Charlotte's
great final quarter comeback.
Durham High, led by the big
football star and forward Ed
wards, and by Holloway, a guard
and former captain, showed
great power in winning the
Eastern title from Raleigh.
20-12.
In the class B race, Trenton
took a nip and tuck 27-22 game
from Lumberton for the honor
of representing the East, while
Spencer defeated Welcome in
Salisbury last night for the
Western title.
An interesting sidelight of the
battle will be that Durham high
teams have won the, state title
in 1916, 1918, 1925, 1926, and
1927, while Charlotte high teams
have been, several times in the
finals but have not won a title.

Co-Eds Play Last
Game Here Tonight
The battling Carolina Co-eds
play their last home game of the
season in Bynum gymnasium to
night at 7:30 o'clock, meeting
Cobb Memorial high school.
The game will be a return en
gagement between the two teams
and the co-eds will be hoping to
avenge a previous 32-11 loss to
the Cobb team.
f The visiting team, which is
coached by Miss Mary Blackwell,
is one of the outstanding sextets
of central North Carolina.
The Cobb tossers, champions
of their county for eight consec
utive years, have won 15 of 17
games this season, and scored
576 points to all opponents' 305.
Neighbors and L. Gatewood,
forwards; T. Gatewood, center,
and Millner, guard, are playing
their fourth year together and
will probably start for Cobb,
with Sykes and Jones as the
other guards.
Louise Thacker, who scored
17 points in the last game, will
be at center for the co-eds, with
Lee and Johnson, forwards, and
Currie, Curry and Hill, guards.
Betas Defeat Ruff in
Beta Theta Pi No. 1 and Ruf
fin, two hitherto undefeated
teams, met in a fencing bout
yesterday afternoon with the
Betas coming out on top after
a hectic and well fought match.
The fencing of both teams was
far better than that displayed
in their first matches. Fenker
of Beta Theta Pi showed up best,
winning two bouts and allowing
Potter : to complete his last
match. Silver and Aycock of
Ruffin and Brown of the Betas
all showed a fine brand . of
fencing, each winning two and
losing one.
The Chi Phi fraternity an
nounces the pledging of John
Alexander Currie, New York,
and John Whipple Lester, Hart

TEAM PICKED BY

Men Selected Solely On Merit
Of Playing Exhibited During
Winter Football Games.
Following up its policy of se
lecting all-state, all-intramural,
and all-everything teams, the
Daily Tar Heel announces its se
lections for the all-University
winter football team. It is to
be plainly understood that these
positions are filled without re
gard to any past performances
cf the- players, but are chosen
solely on the merit of the play
ing exhibited in the winter prac
tice games. The number of
games participated in is taken
into consideration in making
the choices, and a player who
has played a consistently good
game during the entire series of
scrimmages is given preference
over the man who pulls a bril
liant performance in. one or two
games and is mediocre in the
others..
