With about a week left before the opening game here with Wake Forest, Coach Chuck Col lins is sending his ( charges through practice behind closed doors. Freshmen have been posted at the gstes of Kenan Stadium to keep out would-be spectators. , - The first part of the practice session Friday afternoon was taken up with setting-up exer cises, with some v kicking and passing. Collins is still looking for a punter and passer. . No heavy, work was done. The, first and second teams engaged in a drill in running and passing plays. The first team showed Woollen, quarter; Phipps, left half; Slusser, right half; Chand ler, fullback; Walker," left end; Hodges, left tackle; Mclver, left guard; Gilbreath, center; Fysal, right guard; Underwood,' . right tackle; Brown, right end.; An other combination with the first string line had Woollen at quar- SPORTS By Jack Bessen Greetings.

The second team was made up of Brandt and Bridgets, ends; Barclay and Newcombe, guards ; McDade . and Smith, tackles, Alexander, .reserve end last year, worked at second string center. Peacock, quarter ; Dan iel, right half ; White, left half; and Lassiter, fullback, were in the backfield. Both teams had chances to show their wares on the offen sive, and both ran the passing plays a little more smoothly than the running plays, which con sisted mainly of off-tackle and end runs. Phipps seems to be Chuck's best bet for a passer, but at the present the former freshman star is d little slow in getting off his passes. However, he should develop into a real passing tnreat oeiore tne sea son is very old. Should Phipps fall down as a passer, Collins could use Croom and Daniels. Al Jloward, former Notre Dame star, has been supervis ing the work of : the reserves since the fall training began two weeks ago. Howard, a full back, graduated from the South Bend institution last June after playing four years. His con tract calls for him to be here for the fall and winter practice ses sions. Friday he was concen trating on Anacauskas, fresh man star last year. Anacauskas weakest point seems to be pivot ing, and Howard had him work ing on it all during the practice.

This will be Slusser's last year in the blue and white uniform, and he should get the recognition due him as one of the best and fastest backs along the Dixie front. Rip, who steps the century in .10 flat will have plenty of opportunities to show his speed on Kenan's straightaway. s go. r or example, L-eity u jjoui, formerly of the Giants, Harvey Hendriek, late of Brooklyn, Jum bo Elliot, who also wore the spangles of the Robins.

Few. students may know it but a Dartmouth-North Carolina game for 1930 missed by the proverbial eye-lash.

Action started in middle west football September 15. when Notre Dame and all the Big Ten teams began in earnests their drives toward coveted titles. A conference ruling prevents any organized play until the middle of this month. " ' Notre Dame, a mecca f or out standing gridiron squads, faces as tough a schedule as last year when it went through a strenu ous season undefeated. With five varsity first string men back, Coach "Hunk" Anderson has to select his players from a coterie of 115 men. Games with Indi ana, 1 Northwestern, Drake, Pittsburg, Carnegie Tech, Penn sylvania, Navy, Southern Cali fornia, and Army are slated for the Irishmen. Considered as na tional champs last year, ' the South Bend army of players will have another claim at national honors if it goes through this tough schedule unwhipped. In Big Ten circles, critics have conceded the best title chances to Northwestern, Michigan, and Purdue. Michigan and North western tied for first place last year without suff ering a setback. An. imposing schedule is' ex pected to furnish excellent oppo sition for Northwestern as she meets Nebraska, Southern Cali fornia (L.A.), 'Notre Dame, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota. , Coach Hanley of the Purple team has five first string men back, including two men picked by the late Knute Rockne on his all-American team. , They aire Rob Russell and Pug Rentner. Michigan under Harry Kipke's tutelage vhas an aggregation of sixteen lettermen'back, of which j nine are first string men from last year. Leading the pack is Captain Hudson, one of the best backs iii the Big Ten. Michigan plays an intersectional game with Harvard this season.

With only one letter man re turning from the 1931 squad and several of the most prom ising freshman prospects num bered among the missing, Caro lina's 1932 boxing outlook is anything but hopeful. And on top of this unusual dearth of material, the Tar' Heels face the hardest schedule in history this 'winter. Marty Levinson, brilliant featherweight last winter, will be the only monogram wearer back, on . the Hill this year. Lev inson lost only two fights last year and was a semi-finalist in the Southern Conference tour nament at Virginia. Marty scored one technical knockout during the 1931 campaign, and turned in five victories by the decision route against his two- losses. Stoops of Penn was the first man to gain the verdict over Levinson and his other defeat came in the Southern tournament at the hands of Captain Southgate Martin cf Duke whom Marty had already defeated in a dual meet. Piatt Landis, the other letter man expected to return, is in Europe this fall and will not be, able to get back before the sea son is well under way. Landis was a lightheavyweight last year and turned in several cred itable performances after being handicapped during the early part of the season with hand injuries. A great deal depends on a group of rising sophomores who fought last winter on the South ern Conference championship team. If the sophomore ma terial, comes through with a great deal more success than is now expected, the Tar Heels should have a fairly good sea (Continued on last page) The University Shoe Shop Welcomes its old friends back on the Hill and looks forward to making many new ones during the coming year.- You will find the same Best Quality mater ial and workmanship with our prices re duced and we are Owned by Carolina Men Phone 3016 .Notice to Engineering Pupils Why pay someone to do your typing when, for two dollars a week,' you can take a course Tn touch typewriting right on the campus?
