Three Positions Still Unfilled
As Practice Draws To Close
Catcher, First-Baseman, and
Shortstop Not Yet Chosen
From Applicants.
With the last full week of
practice before the opening
game with Washington and Lee
next Tuesday ahead of them, the
Carolina baseball team still has
three uncertain positions. Merry
battles for the catcher's berth,
first base, and shortstop are
being waged daily.
Four men are leading the
race for the backstop job at
present. Norman McCaskill, a
letterman shifted from second,
Jim Tatum and Red Matheson,
two reserves from last year, and
Profest Strayhorn, last year's
f rosh receiver, are the four lead
ing candidates. Joe Parker and
Farrell are two other dependable
receivers who may see action.
Johnny Phipps and Dutch
Leonard are waging the hottest
battle over the shortstop job and
at the present, Phipps should be
given a slight edge. Leonard has
shown an improvement in his
hitting, however, and should this
continue, he may oust the taller
and heavier Phipps. Over at first
another close battle is going on
between Jim Dixon and Tommy
Temple. Dixon is a letterman
from last year, though he play
ed then in the outfield. Temple
is out for his first year but he is
an upper classman. Temple has
a powerful batting eye but lacks
Dixon's experience around the
initial sack. Dixon should get
the call with Temple being held
in reserve. The latter should
get plenty of chance to play due
to his excellent batting so far
this season.
Captain Willie Powell and
Vergil Weathers, two veterans
will cover third and second res
pectively and are looking espec
ially good. In the outfield, Coach
Hearn can pick his gardeners
from an experienced bunch.
Croom, Brandt, Peacock, and
Hornaday are all letter outfield
ers, and then there is Gene
Zaiser and Vick, two promising
sophomores.

ACCORDING TO MEMBERS
of the Duke's spring sport

to win any of the spring con
tests. For some unknown reas

how badly they were going to
trounce our racketeers. These
haughty Devils even went down
on the courts and broke the
news to Coach Kenfield himself.
Hines, and the rest of the Caro

about the way the talk went.

DELAY OF GAMES
Scheduled Contests Will Be Played
Later in Baseball and
Tennis Races.
Yesterday's inclement weath
er rendered baseball diamonds
and tennis courts unfit for play,
necessitating the postponement
of all intramural contests listed
for the day. The games, which
were to have been the openers
of the season in both sports, will
be scheduled later in the season
according to Herman Schnell, di
rector of intramural athletics.
Five baseball and five tennis

FETZER REPORTS
ON BOXING MEET
National Intercollegiate Boxing Asso
ciation Meets at Penn State
For Rule Revision.
Coach Bob Fetzer has return
ed to the University after at
tending the Eastern Intercol
legiate Boxing championships at
Penn State last Friday and Sat
urday. During the same period that
the boxing matches were being
run off, the National Intercol
legiate Boxing Association held
a meeting. Coach Bob also at
tended the boxing meeting, held
by the leading men among col
legiate boxing circles in the
United States, and brings back
a report of the meeting.
The main question brought be
fore the gathering was that of
rules and regulations. A sub
committee was appointed to
study these and formulate new
definite rules which will be put
on the same basis as the national
collegiate football rules ; that is,
rules which all the colleges in the
United States will go by in hold
ing matches between two dif
ferent colleges.
The sub-committee is schedul
ed to bring their report to a sec
ond meeting of the boxing assoc
iation which will take place also
at Penn State during the time of
the annual Penn Relays.

WINTER PRACTICE
RESUMED TODAY
ON KENAN FIELD
Coach Sapp Puts Squad Through
Work-out in Absence of
"Chuck" Collins.
Yesterday afternoon on Ken
an field Carolina's football squad
held its first practice of the sec
ond part of winter football.
Forty-five reported, regardless
of the bad weather.
Due to the absence of Coach
Collins, Coach Sapp took charge
of the initial workout. The
practice consisted mostly of limbering-up
drills and passing, in
order to get the players in prop
er shape before hard work is
undertaken.
The coaches plan to keep the
football squad out three more
weeks before quitting until next
fall. During this time the mem
bers of the squad will be given
individual attention in an effort
to iron out the various faults of
the candidates for the 1933 ele
ven. The majority of the squad
which reported yesterday were
freshmen and without doubt
they will be the making of next
year's eleven. Babe Daniels,
giant center, who is scheduled
to go far among Southern Con
ference players, was out and
ready to go. Daniels did not play
last fall due to an injury.

He began his professional
career by teaching in the public

state normal school, and suc

he is a graduate, the Massachu

ILLUSION:
The magician exhibits a flower pot with hinged sides
on a table in the center of the stage. He opens out the
sides to show that this container is empty. Closing it
up, he places a screen between it and the audience.
After a short period of magic incantations he removes
the screen. The astounded audience sees a beautiful
girl, covered to the shoulders in lovely flowers, rising
from the "empty" container. Where did she come from?
EXPLANATION:
The girl was hiding behind the drape of the table.
There is a trap door in the bottom of the flower pot,
with a hole large enough to allow her to crawl through.
The flowers, called "magicians' feather flowers," are
a regular part of a magician's outfit. The flower girl
wears a rubber tunic and a bathing.cap to keep the
flowers compressed into small space. She slides the
tunic down and the flowers expand when she emerges.
