I Tar Heels Take Conference and State Crowns; Lose Only One Dual Meet; Set Carolina and Tech Relay Records. TAKE 9TH STATE TITLE Looking Them Over by Browning Roach The flying sophomore Charlie Farmer led the point-getters for the University of North Carolina's Southern Conference track champions during tl highly successful season just rlosed. an official summary of season results disclosed today. Farmer scored 100 1-2 points. He won the 100 and 220 dashes in every dual meet, won the 220 at the bout hern Conference: meet and placed in the 100, and tied both Southern dash records. Another sophomore was sec ond honor man, Theron Brown rolling up 85 points on consis tent work in the discus, javelin and broad jump. Minor Barkley, senior distance ace, came third with 65 points gathered on fine races in the half mile and mile. The season was considered one of the best of a number of fine track seasons Carolina has had in the nine-year regime of Coach R. A. Fetzer, who is gen erally regarded as the dean of Southern track. Besides winning the Southern title, the Tar Heels took their 9th straight State title, and won every dual meet except from the strong' Princeton team by at least 25 points. Their victories included the strong Penn squad and Washington and Lee's Southern Indoor Cham pions. In-the Stato meet the Fetzer legion triumphed by a tremen dous margin, scoring 76.8 points while N. C. State came second with 26, trailed by Davidson, Duke, Wake Forest and High Point in order named. In the Southern meet the Tar Heels scored first on 40 1-2 points, followed by Georgia with 28, and trailed in order by Miss issippi A. & M., Tulane, Auburn, L. S. U., Tennessee, N. C. State, Georgia Tech, Alabama, Vander- bilt, Kentucky, Maryland, and Duke. Charlie Farmer and the Tar Heel relay teams also carried off principal honors at the Georgia Tech relays, where the Tar Hee entries set lour oi six new records. . " Seven University records went down before their stellar work and an eighth mark was tied Farmer tied the 100-yard mark at 9.8 seconds and lowered the zzu-mark to 21.2. utner new records were credited to the half and mile relay teams, and to Barkley, half-mile, 1:56.5; Nei man, broad jump, 22 feet 5 3-4 Bagby, high jump, 6 feet 1-4 inch ; Arnold, vault 13 feet. The other leading Tar Hee point-winners, trailing Farmer Brown and Barkley, were Slus ser 54, Gay 45, Perry 41 1-2 Arnold 33 1-3, Baucom 33, Bag by 33, Neiman 32 1-3 Adkms 32, Weil 24, Lowry 22, Johnson 20 1-2, Nims 18 1-4. The recent fiasco of the War- ren-Middlekauf bout scheduled at Durham leaves ring authori ties still in the dark as to the relative standing of the ex-col legiate pugilists. The four out standing: ex-college boys in the ring game are Marriner of Illi nois, Middlekauf of Florida, Warren of North Carolina and Hansen of Nebraska, all of whom fight in the heavyweight di vision. Hansen having been knocked out several times in recent bouts, Marriner's record carries a trifle more prestige than any of the) others of the college quartette, while the winner. of the War- rpn-Middlekauf f ierht had it taken place would have been advanced a notch or two in his professional standing. Besides Add Warren, the card for the fight at Durham carried the names of four other Caro- ina men. Ox Shuford, class Of 29 and football star, scored a decisive knockout over Bill Suggs, another Carolina man and a fullback in. football, while Add Warren's brother John, and Obie Davis, both class of '31 and ettermen in boxing, saw action in the preliminaries. Carolina men almost had a corner on that ring program. A srlance over the records shows that Carolina's pertor mances in athletics for the past year were not at all bad. In football the Tar Heels made it nine out of ten games, scoring four shut-out victories, allowing only one team to register more than one touchdown against them while they themselves scored more than 40 points on half their opponents and never scored less than twice in any game, and piling up 346 points to be second in the nation in scoring while letting their op- nonents eet an average of six l: w - points a game. In basketball the Tar Heels did a little better than break even with ten wins and Mine losses. In baseball they turned in a similar record of 13 games won and 12 lost. In boxing, Car olina had a successful season, losing only two of eight matches to the strong Penn State and Florida boxers.

Winning 10 athletic champ ionships in one year is no ordi nary feat, but teams represent ing the University of North Carolina during the collegiate year 1929-30 have done just that. The Tar Heels lay claim to three Southern Conference tit les, namely, the track and cross country championships and the tea mtitle in tennis, and to seven state championships, namely, football, cross-country, boxing, wrestling, track, tennis, and golf. That makes the total of 10. The record is believed to be as good as any in the South for the year 1929-30 and to rank with the best in the country. It is the second consecutive year that the Tar Heels have won ten championships. Last year they won the Southern Con ference titles in cross-country and boxing and eight state championships.

Nims holds the University quarter-mile record, was leader of the State and Southern cham pionship track team. Merrit led the tfennis team throuerh an undeteated season to a Southern team champion ship. ! - ' Chatham led the Tar Heel golfers to another State title and to a season which allowed but two losses. Out of seven track' meets Car olina came through six of them with large-score victories and lest only to the Princeton Tigers, who boast an unusually strong squad of individual and collec tive stars. In addition, the Tar Heels captured the state and southern conference crowns and set four new . records in the Georgia Tech relays. Carolina records in the 220, half-mile run, broad jump, high jump and pole vault were set by members of the 1930 track team and the 100 yard ' dash record was equaled. For the fourth consecutive time Carolina annexed the Sou thern conference title in cross country, and won two out of three dual meets. The tennis team went through a very suc cessful season, winning 12 dual matches and tying one and hold ing within its ranks the state titles for both singles and doub les. Iri golf, men representing Carolina won seven out of nine matches played, with the mar gin of victory in both matches which were lost being 9 1-2 to 8 1-2...
