' FOB : 1929 LOSS
Curly Byrd Has Better Bal
anced Eleven Than Last
Year's Grid Team. '
By W. H. Hottel, V. of Md.
College Park, Md., Oct. 9.
University of Maryland's foot
ball team is coming to Chapel
Hill Saturday confident that it
will not be beaten by any such
score as 43 to 0 by which the
powerful Tar Heels won -at Col
lege Park last October. How
ever, the Old Liners realize the
strength of the Carolina team
and are not making any idle
predictions of walking off with
the long end of the score.
Maryland, though, has a team
good enough to make the after
noon interesting for the Tar
Heel aggregation and is sure to
give the fans a few thrills before
the battling is over.
North Carolina was much
further advanced when it met
Maryland last fall than was the
Old Liners who were in the
throes of development, but
Byrd's charges, after having had
their first real spring practice,
are much further along than
they, were at this time a year
ago. Facing Yale on October 4
and North Carolina this week
and having in mind that wallop
ing the Tar Heels gave them last
fall, the Old Liners just had to
hustle their development, al
though the size and calibre of
the squad hardly justified it.
Maryland showed a lot of
power against Yale and the
score does not do the Old Liners
justice, for it was only because
of . their own slips, mostly
mechanical, " that they did not
stay in the running to the finish
with a good chance to have won
the game. ' .; v
The Old Liners have a. well
balanced line that will average
a shade better than 180 pounds
and a fleet backf ield quartet that
will hit around 164 at the best
and around 160 at the lightest.
There is much more speed, too,
back of the line than there was
last year and this should help
greatly in the defense against
such speedsTers as Branch, Slus
ser, and Erickson. ; ;
Maryland doubtless ..will start
the Carolina game with the
same men who began the con
test against the Elis at New Ha
ven last Saturday. This was .as
follows : Pease and y Norris,
ends ; Fisher and Carlis, tackles ;
Hay den and Kracjco vie, guards;
Faber, center ; . Woods, , quarter ;
Chalmers and Berger, halfbacks;
Poppelman, fullback.
Evans, Maryland's heady back
also will get into the game early,
if he does not start. -
Floyd Haywood Is
Declared Ineligible
Coac h Collins' r e s erve
strength at right tackle was fur
ther reduced Wednesday, due to
the fact that the Southern .Con
ference rules prohibit a person
from participating in athletics
for a period of more than five
years after the beginning of his
college career.
The victim in this case is
Floyd Haywood. He attended a
junior college for two years
and then remained out of
school for one . year before en
tering the University here. By
the above ruling he has been de
clared ineligible for football.
Peyton 1 Abbott, assistant
wrestling coach, was undefeated
in college competition.

Captain Strud Nash may not start the Maryland game because
of an injury to his eye received in the V. P. I. game. The wound,
however, is healing up nicely, and the Tar Heel Captain probably
will see action before the game is over. ,

letramural Results
Delta Psi Wins
The Carter and Branch com
bination proved too much for the
Phi Delta Theta team yesterday,
the Delta JPsi outfit winning by
a score of 12 to 0. Carter scored
a touchdown early in the first
quarter on an end run for the
first tally, and his pass to Pax
ton in the third put the game in
the bag. Both teams played a
great game with excellent de
fensive work on either side, but
the Delta Psi offense was too
strong for the opposition, push
ing over six first downs to the
Phi Delts' pair.
Phi Alpha Overwhelmed
The Phi Sigma Kappa's knack
of nailing long passes for big
gains gave them an easy win
over Phi Alpha, the score being
28-0. Teachey, star for the Phi
Sigs, was on the passing end,
and Fitzgerald and Vick, were
on the receiving end of most of
the passes that went for gains.
Thomas also starred in several
of the plays, and in the first few
minutes of play he was respon
sible for the first touchdown, in
tercepting one of" the Phi Alphs'
passes to run 50 yards for the
score. His kicking and defen

In the doubles, Carolina also
fared well, advancing to the

team composed of Talbot and
Sloan, 6-2, 4-6, 7-5. Hines played
erratically and Only the scintil

The Pi Kappa Phi's were de
f eated again today to the tune
of 13-0, this time losing to the
Phi Kappa Sig boys in the
roughest game of the afternoon.
The Pi Kappa Phi's were anxious
to avenge the defeat of severa

yard. '
Manning ana Winston were
the ground gainers for Phi Kap

down and figuring heavily in the
drive that netted them four first

The World Series is a thing of
the past and we will be able to
waste our study time watching
football instead of listening to
Graham McNamee voice feeble
puns on the late tiff over the
radio. . -?
Last Saturday's grid results
showed many teams on the
side of the ledger as a huge crop
of goose eggs figured in the re
sults of some of the major
southern clashes. Among the ag
gregations white washed was
Sewanee, who fell before the
Kentucky Wildcats by a 37 to
0 tally. Although the Blue and
White backs ran wild for the
greater part of the game, figures
showed that Sewanee made more
first downs against Kentucky
than Tennessee last Thanksgiv
ing when the Vols were held
to a 6-6 tie. Time and again the
Sewanee boys would capture the
pigskin and march off down the
field in a series of line smash
ing plays, but the Big Blue would
get a lease on the ball and run it
back in long sensational drives.
It was disheartening to the Se
wanee crowd, but it all goes to
show how a couple of fast backs
can turn a good football game
into a rout.
Though he failed to share
scoring honors with his flashier
team mates, a lad by the name
of Johnson looked mighty good.
Several years ago, five rangy
basketeers from Ashland - (Ky.)
high school came, saw, and con
quered similiar teams from all
corners of the nation in the na
tional tourney at Chicago. Their
captain was Ellis Johnson, who
was afterward named as cap
tain of the All-American team
picked by sports scribes as re
nrRAntat.ive; of the best hard
wood talent in the country. The
next fall the gridiron blazed with
the flying cleats i of this same
lad as'Johnson led his gridiron
TYi aa to the alleged national
high school football champion
ship. Last, year Johnson entered
Kentucky and proceeded to make
freshman football history. Near
the end of the year when the
frosh Blue Devils met the Ten
nessee yearlings Johnson again
led his team through a supreme
struggle that ended only when
the big back was tackled on the
goal line as he was plunging over
for a touchdown on a frozen
field. When the pile untangled,
Johnson was lying motionless.
It was at first though that every
bone in the doughty back's body
was broken, but later he was
given a fighting chance for his
life. Now he is back in the ranks
of the Blue and is one of the
most promising soph ball toters
in the South. A truly great come
back. We'll hear more from this
lad.
.
World Series sidelights say
that when George Ernshaw came
out of the dugout to bat in the
eighth inning of the last game,
the stands rose and gave him an
ovation great enough to warm
the heart of any ball player.
Whereupon, George stepped to
the platter, turned, doffed his
cap, and biffed a high fly to
"deep center field. Lucky for the
Cards that George didn't bow
and fling kisses to the stands or
he might have knocked a few
boards off the center field fence.

The freshman squad irt pre
paring for the game - with the
Maryland ; first year men ; is
buckling down to some very hard
work. As yet no definite selec
tion for the first eleven has
been made, consequently com
petition is keen. Among those
men who are showing up well
are : Hackney and Woolen,
quarterbacks ; Witner, Weisker,
and Phipps are other prospective
backf ield men. In the line, Mc
Iver, Mullis,.and Barkley are
showing up well. The coaches,
however, have made no predic
tions as to the power of the
team. The possibilities, neverthe
less, are promising.

Coaches Send Entire Sq
Throu-h Lcng Drills in Bice!
V ing And Tacldinir.
Ihe iar Heel team went
through one of the 'stiff est and
roughest workouts of the season
on Emerson field yesterday af
ternoon, when Coaches Collins,
Cerney, Fetzer and Sapp sent
the squad ' through drills in
blocking, ' tackling, taking out
ends, and going down under
punts. . .
In his radio address over
WPTF Wednesday night Coach
Collins lamented the fact that
1 Carolina is so weak at tackle
and end, and judging from the
practice session yesterday, he is
determined to eradicate this
weakness very soon.
Line scrimmage for five lines
was in order for the first part
of the afternoon with Coaches
Collins and Fetzer taking special
care to see that every lineman
"got his man." The buckboards
were also pushed about the field
for some time. Coach Cerney
had five backfields taking out
ends for an hour on both off
tackle and end-run plays.
Later in the afternoon . the
coaches lined up the tackles
If our to the row and four rows
for ' stopping freshman backs,
who ran down these lines. Ends,
backs, guards and centers were
sent 'through similar tackling
drills also. Work for the after
noon ended with five teams going
down under punts. Branch and
Mails 'did some crood kicking
while the elevens charged down
the field to get the back receiv
ing the punt.
It seems highly improbable
that : Underwood and Thompson,
regular tackles, will be able to
start the game tomorrow, since
they are both limping consider
ably from old wounds. In this
event McDade will replace Un
derwood, with Harry Hodges re
placing Thompson. McDade
showed ifp well in the V. P. I.
game, but Hodges is an untried
reserve :;-..:
Curly Byrd has announced
that he intends to leave Chapel
Hill Saturday night with his
team having made a far better
showing than they did against
the ' Tar Heels last year. The
Carolina" coaches expect a tough
battle from the Old Liners with
such star ball carriers as Ber-
