problem confronting the Tar

a six-foot yearling high jumper.
Dale Ranson stated that he is so
anxious to get his man that he
is tempted to do like Wisconsin's

STETSON D GIVES
TO STUDENT FUND
Chapel Hill Branch Donates Five
Per Cent of Total Sales to
Emergency Loan Fund.
A check amounting to $40.00
was received recently by the
University las the second dona
tion to the University loan fund
by Stetson "D" Tailors, Inc., of
Baltimore. The first check sent
by Maurice Robinson, president
of the firm, was for $125.28 and
was received January 25.
The additions to the' fund
came as a result of an announce
ment in the Daily Tar Heel
that was brought to Robinson's
attention by L. V. Huggins,
graduate of the class of 1925,
who has returned here as dis
trict manager of the Stetson
"D" stores in North Carolina
and Virginia. The announce
ment stated that the University
short-term loan fund was ex
hausted and interested Robinson
to the extent that he authorized
Huggins to give five per cent of
all sales of the Chapel Hill
branch from January 16. The
first check followed a sale by the
local store that determined the
relatively large amount of that
donation.
The funds received are
handled by the regular loan fund
committee composed of Presi
dent Frank P. Graham, R. B.
House, F. F. Bradshaw, C. T.
Woollen, and Harry F. Comer,
and are put into immediate use.

son 2; second round, Napoleon

inson 3, Napoleon 2. This gave
the bout to the Penn State box
er with a margin of one point.
It was a close fight, and Napol
eon wron on his speed.
I Piatt Landis , won his fifth
straight fight Saturday against
a man who outweighed him by
about thirty pounds. Popeye
had to go more than one round
for the first time in his last
three bouts and he had to win
on boxing and not fighting.
Piatt said he clipped his man
with two terrific blows in the
first round which didn't even
phase him so he- decided he'd
better try to box and keep from
falling himself. He said that
guy could certainly tak'em. Sam
Giddins and Torn Parsons both
looked good and the majority of
the Carolina squad felt that Sam
deserved a win and Parsons a
draw at least. This is not print
ed in the form of a protest but
merely to point out that the
fights were not one-sided. The
Tar Heels made a good enough
showing to be extended an invi
tation to the National Intercol
legiate boxing tournament in

teams are still unbeaten in both
loops, Old East, Best House,; and
Swain Hall in the dormitory

S. A. E. in the fraternity loop.
S. A. E. meets Chi Psi this af
ternoon in the headliner and T.
E. P. may be stopped by Kappa
Alpha which would settle the
fraternity question. Ed Ever

well for individual scoring hon
ors of the fraternity league un
til his last game last week. Ed
had a little trouble finding the
right basket that day; he said
he was shooting at three or four.

The whole thing was in the bag.

KENTUCKY BEATS
CRIMSON TO TAKE
SOUTHEAST LEAD
Wildcats Rule as Heavy Favorites to
Win Tourney at Atlanta After
Victory Over Tide.
Kentucky's Wildcats ran their
string of victories to seven as
they turned back Alabama's
Crimson Tide 35-31 in Birming
ham Monday night. This Svin
gives the mountaineers the un
disputed claim to the throne of
the southeastern conference bas
ketball throne. .
Alabama shot its bolt in its
"big push." The Crimson would
have tied the Wildcats for the
top of the conference court
standings if they had triumph
ed. m The rangy and equally rug
ged Kentucky Colonels proved
their superiority over the Ala
bama boys before a partisan
crowd of Alabama supporters
and appear to have the inside
track as a heavy favorite in the
Atlanta tourney.
Kentucky recently licked the
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
45-22, but the game had more
thrills than the uneven score in
dicates. The Kentucky v quint
played on even terms with the
Engineers more than half of the
first period and part of the sec
ond quarter, but Forest Sale,
all-southern center last year,
led the way to a brilliant attack
which blasted aside the confer
ence hopes of the Atlanta team.
Alabama had a hard night
last Saturday and this could be
attributed as one of the causes
for its recent downfall. In their
big week-end contest the Crimr
son found the Mississippi State
College game hard sledding and
trailed all the way until the
wanning minutes of play when
Alabama put on a sensational
rally to cop the game, 38-36. t
MOST SOUTHERN
COACllES PLEASED
WITH NEW RULES
( Continued from page three )
He listed two other effects. The
new rules make possession of
the ball more valuable and
strengthen the defense. The out-of-bounds
rule improves punting
and virtually eliminates the dan
ger of slicing kicks outside with
no gain. ,
Reduce Injury . v
Dan McGugin of. Vanderbilt,
presidentr oh the national; foot
ball association says -the jiiain
dutyr qfrihe-ideline rridew.as; J
reduce -hazards oof injury. he
new rule will reduce lots of. tack
ling out of bounds. V
Clipper Smith of State didn't
think the old clipping penalty of
twenty-five yards was enforced
as it should have been and that
the new penalty of fifteen will
be better. Bill Alexander of
Georgia Tech hopes the new
sideline penalty will bring more
strategy and thrills. Alexander
says a quarterback would be
able to run back into the end
zones without danger of being
caught close to the sidelines. The
rule will speed up the game since
the useless sideline buck is out.
Biff Jones of Louisiana, on the
other hand, isn't so sure the
sideline rule will help' the game
any. He fears it lowers the value
of both strategy and kicking
ability.
