Thcrsday, March 31, 1932 TAR HEELS WILL PLAY MARYLAND, VIRGINIA ON TRIP Baseball Team Prepares for In vasion of Northern States In Two Weeks. Boasting successive victories over Davidson and the Univer sity of Maryland, the Carolina nine began preparations yester day afternoon for a two-game northern trip. . After a week's layoff the Tar Heels will meet the University of Virginia in Charlottesville April 8, and on the following day the Old Liners will get a chance to revenge their 4-0 shutout at the hands of George Hinton. Virginians Strong The Virginians again have a strong nine and are doped to give the Tar Heels a hard game. Last year the Cavaliers bowed to Carolina 6-1 on an extended northern invasion, but this year the Virginia nine has been greatly strengthened, while the Tar Heels suffered several losses by graduation. V. M. I. and Duke Next Following the Maryland game the Tar Heels will return home for games with V. M. I. April 16, and Duke's Blue Devils April 23. The Blue Devils, rated as the team to give the Tar Heels a battle for state honors, have been greatly weakened by infield losses, but the Devils still have a strong team in the person of Bobbie Coombs, : all-American pitcher last year and nephew of Jack Coombs, Duke's coach. Last year Duke split with the Tar Heels, with Coombs win ning one game easily, and Cap tain Cecil Longest holding the Devils hitless for seven innings in the return affair. TAR HEEL 'SKY DEVILS' HAS GOOD AIR SHOTS "Sky Devils," playing today at the Carolina, is a fast-moving picture based on the adventures of three Americans in the war, and has been filmed on an extra vagant scale. In it was used an air fleet of fifty-five planes to' make the sensational flying se quences, one scene alone shows fifty ships in action above the clouds. This is Howard Hughes' nrst comedy production since "Two Arabian Knights," four years ago. ine story of "Sky Devils is an original written by a large staff of famous authors- includ ing Robert E. Sherwood, noted playwright and critic; Robert E. Benchley, famous humorist ; and Joseph Moncure March, who wrote the dialogue for ''Hell's Angels." It is written purely from an entertainment angle with Spen cer Tracy and George Cooper m the leading roles, and Ann Dvorak, a leading lady new to the screen, playing opposite them. William Boyd, Billy Sevan and Yola D'Avril are also m the cast which was. directed h Edward Sutherland. George Hinton's trick of shut ing out Maryland Tuesday and allowing only five hits was a performance worth noting. It isn't often that a college pitcher does a thing like that against first class opposition, and partic ularly a Carolina pitcher. George had excellent control against the Old Liners and if he keeps that iip he'll be troublesome for al most any man's team. Dunlap seems to have found the range if that homer and double Tuesday are any indica- ion, and the sooner he gets to smacking them with greater regularity the better the Tar Heels' chances for the state title will be. Weathers, too, has shown hitting abilities in his wo appearances this year and if he continues to come through, one of Coach Hearn's biggest worries will be over.

If the usts and the new student's choice &gree, both will be notified by "ie first pledging date. Page Three SIDELIGHTS By Phil Alston Smokey Ferebee has solved the short ston nroblem. He seems to have a habit of com ing through at the right time, which is convenient. Bozey Berger, Maryland's all- American baskeball guard, couldn't do much with George Hinton's curve ball, but he cer tainly handled third in fine style and looked the part of a great ball player.
