Page Three,
The Carolina coaches began
concentrating attention on offen
sive line-play yesterday, and in
dications are that the Tar Heel
forwards are in for a siege of
work before Coach Collins sends
them out to block Vandy's mas
sive front wall here Saturday.
Carolina's first and second
lines both looked fine defensively
in holding Wake Forest without
a single first down last Saturday,
but June Underwood, center,
and Frank Smith, tackle, were
about the only boys whose all
round work drew any praise
from Head Coach Collins.
Underwood, a former tackle
himself, played the whole game
and looked genuinely good in
every phase of play. Smith,
who has just broken in as a reg
ular, was a power on defense ;
his blocking was good on the
whole; and it was he and Under
wood who blocked Wall's punt
and gave Carolina the last big
scoring chance it squandered in
the fourth quarter.
Coach Collins let slip a sarcas
tic comment and suggestion to
the linemen yesterday which
shows pretty well how he feels
about the Wake Forest tie.
"On practically all the run
ning plays the offensive men for
Carolina formed their contact on
the defensive man," he said,
"and the interferers were able to
get through very nicely,
"The only trouble was the
blockers did not hold the defen
sive men out long enough to al
low that all-important 'person,
the ball carrier, to get through
' the hole.
"Our hope is that during the
coming week we will be able to
impress upon the offensive line
men that they should also, out of
sheer politeness at any rate, al
low the ball carrier occasionally
to get beyond the line of scrim
mage."
Heavy blocking practice has
been ordered for every day this
week, and with the players feel-
ins: about as badly about the
,Wake Forest tie as Coach Col
lins,' all indications are that the
Tar Heels will be-a much strong,
er club Saturday.
They will need to be. Vander
bilt is packing a 195-pound line
and a 175-pound backfield, with
some nine regulars back from
last year, and McGugin's Com
modores are rated as one of the
most powerful teams in the coun
try and one of the biggest favor
ites for the Conference title.
Vandy will bring to Kenan
stadium one of the greatest stars
in the South, Dixie Roberts, who
ran wild ao-ainst Mercer last
Saturday.

FROSH BOXERS REPORT
First tryouts of freshmen in
terested in boxing will take place
today in the Tin Can at 4 :00 p.
m., according to an announce
ment by Head Coach Arch T. Al
ten.
Coach Allen, himself former
captain and southern welter
weight champion, in his second
year as freshman boxing coach
last year turned out one of the
best freshman mitt teams ever to
present Carolina. -
What the gentlemen in Con
gress appear to need is exercises

Mar.
After Saturday's game, the
majority of the spectators wTere
ready to relegate the Tar Heels
to the scrap heap for the year.
The University team did not live
up to expectations, but the grid-
ders certainly aren't as bad as
they -looked. Although they
failed to score, the Tar Heels
were four touchdowns better
than the Deacons, and with a
little more work this week, Coach
Collins will demonstrate that
fact to Vanderbilt's crack outfit.
Against the Deacons, Carolina
used nothing but fundamental
plays, but against the Commo
dores, the boys will "shoot the
works."
E. K. Hall and his Rules Com
mittee came in for plenty of
criticism Saturday. Everyone
the writer spoke to concerning
the changes agreed on one thing
-that the game was perceptibly
slowed up. If Saturday's game
was any criterion, football is not
going to be the glamorous spec
tacle it was in former years. The
change that came in for most
criticism was the one which
automatically made the ball
dead when any part of the play
er's body except his feet touched
the ground. And the way some
of the Wake Forest players were
pushing or bowling over the Tar
Heel backs, many fans thought
that there was a rule against
tackling.
Tomorrow, weather permit
ting, about 75,000 persons will
jam the Yankee Stadium to see
the opening game of the World
Series, with the New York Yan
kees and the Chicago Cubs pro
viding the entertainment. Col
umns have been written about
the stars of the Yankees, Babe
Ruth and Lou Gehrig, while just
as much space has been devoted
to Kiki Cuyler, Lonnie War-
necke, and Gabby Hartnett of
the Bruins. But the writer still
thinks that most of the thrills
will be provided by some of the
lesser known players, who have
that most annoying habit of
"robbing' the show" from the
the writer thinks that the play
ers like Joey Sewell, Bill Dickey
and Earl Combs of the Ameri
can League champions, and El
wood English, "Hoss" Stephen
son and Charley Grimm of the
Cubs will be leading the runs
batted in column.
Here and There
One reason why Chick Mee-
han was unpopular at New York
university is that the players
were bucking against his slave
driving tactics. . . . If the 1932
World Series sroes the seven
scheduled games, a new gate re
ceipt record will be made, the
figure hovering around the $1,
500.000 mark. Not bad I or a
year of the depression. . . . Al
though Vanderbilt and Tulane
are pre-season picks for the
Southern Conference1 Crown,
rnarh Al Howard thinks that
the winner of the Tennessee
Alabama game will be-the title
holder. Carolina plays Vandy,
Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and
Tech, all of whom are "pre
season champions."
Duke university, as a result
of their 13 to 0 win over David
son college, took the lead in the
race for Big Five honors in the
state. The University of North
Carolina and Wake Forest were
in second position after their
battle which ended in a 0 to 0
tie. State has not vet met a Bii
Five opponent.
North Carolina State had a
long lead in all scoring depart
ments, as a result of their 38 to
0 victory over Appalachian col
lege. Duke's thirteen was the
nearest to State in total points,
as none of the other Big Five
teams crossed the goal line. Ray
Rex, State's sensational sopho
more fullback, was first in in
dividual point scoring. The
middle-west boy had a total of
twelve, while two more State
backs, McQuage and Komios,
were second with a touchdown
and an extra point each.

BASEBALL CALL
BRINGS FEW MEN
Due to threatening weather
the call for fall baseball enthusi
asts was answered by only some
twenty-odd men. Among this
squad there were several letter
men, the most notable of which
wre Jim Griffith Willie Powell,
an;d Paul Dunlap. Others to re
port were Fred Crouch, pitcher,
Red lathewson and Bandy Par
ker, catchers, all of last year's
reserves and several of . last
year's freshman team : as Zaiser,
outfielder and Patterson, infield
er. . . '
Coach Bunn Hearn expects a
squad of about thirty-five to re
port when the Weather improves
and then he intends to start the
regular inter-squad games be
tween the rookies and the veter
ans. Yesterday was spent in hitting
and fielding practice in prepara
tion for the coming games.

On Sports
By Morrie Long
Fresh from an unimpressive
victory over Mercer, Coach Dan
McGugin's Vanderbilt charges
are favored to capture the clash
this Saturday with Carolina.
Led by Pete Gracie, all southern
center and one of the finesf in
the nation, the Black and Gold
squad includes seven veterans:
Leyendecker, Talley, Beasley in
the line, with Roberts, "Good"
Fortune, and Henderson in the
backfield. "Mighty" Close, quar
ter, is lost for the season on
scholastic difficulties. Last
year's setto at Nashville was ex
pected to be a walk-away for the
Commodores, but until the
fourth quarter the battle was
t i r i
anyone s game, tne nnai score
ending 13 to 0.
Schmeling vs. Walker
Ireland's pride, Mickey Walk
er, is expected to lose the deci
sion to Max Schmeling in their
heavyweight bout, the younger
and stronger German going into
the fracas with betting odds of
3 to 1 favoring him. Johnny
Risko who was knocked out by
the4 Teuton and who holds a de
cision over Walker, picks the
Irishman to win because of his
damaging body punches. Schmel
ing looks too tough.
Ruth's Pitching Record
The most picturesque figure in
baseball, Babe Ruth not only has
accomplished things with his
bludegon, in previous world
series, but he has a pitching rec
