Tar Heel Cagers Take tong
But Listless Practice Drill
"Bo" Shepard's White Phantoms
Look Bad in Work for State i
Contest Tomorrow Night,
SNOOKS AITKEN BACK OUT
Star. Forward Returns to Work
But Takes Things Easy Be
cause of Ankle Injury.
Phantoms took a long but list
less workout yesterday in the
Tin Can in preparation for their
next Big Five battle, N. C. State,
tomorrow night in Raleigh.
The Tar Heel basketeers
looked far from top form, unable
to hit the basket with any de
gree of frequency, and showing
lots of ragged passing. Coach
Shepard started the first five in
a passing and shooting drill from
set plays and finished the prac
tice with a scrimmage between
the first and third teams. In
the contest the varsity was held
on even terms by the reserve
outfit.
Same Line-up
The leading five was still made
up of Long and Weathers, for
wards ; Glace center ; and the
McCachrens, Captajn Dave and
Jim, guards. At the end of the
workout the varsity was told to
shoot fifty fouls, at which phase
of the game Carolina was very
weak in the battle against Vir
ginia.
Aitken Back Out
"Snooks" Aitken, nifty little
forward who was injured a cou
ple of weeks ago during the
Virginia trip, was back in uni
form yesterday, but limited his
work to passing and shooting.
If the brilliant regular is ready
to go by Wednesday, Coach Shep
ard will be able to use his for
wards in such a way that they
won't tire as thev did in the
. contest last Friday,. , .., - .,
The White Phantoms '., Will
have their first real test in the
battle with the Wolf pack Wed
nesday. So far Carolina has met
only Wake Forest and Davidson,
the weak teams in the state. The
State team gave the Blue Devil
outfit quite a scare last week be
fore losing 33-29.
Only Two Tilts For
Maryland This Week
Owing to the mid-year exami
nations, the University of Mary
land will have only two varsity
athletic events this week, a dou
ble bill on Saturday night in
which the basketball quint will
oppose Virginia Tech and the
boxers will meet Western Mary
land. The Old Liners figure to get
an even break, as they will be
favored over the Gobbler bas
keteers, whom they beat at
Blacksburg last Saturday night,
29-24, but the mittmen, although
they have defeated Richmond U.
412-3 and V. M. I. 6-2, will
be underdogs in the match with
the Green Terrors.
On the Western Maryland
ring team will be Don Keyser,
155; Andy Gorski, 165; and
Bernie Kaplan, 175, all of whom
won bouts against Maryland
last year. Maryland has only
one boxer who was credited with
a win in the tilt with the Terrors
last season. He is Harry Car
roll, who won in the 125-pound
class by default. Harold Burns,
lightweight, who scored last
year, is in school but has given
up boxing, as has Hale Mathias
who won the 115-pound scrap
from Western Maryland. Both
were outstanding performers..
Pontecarvo, Western Mary
land's highly touted heavy
weight, also is deemed sure to
win Saturday, and the Terrors
appear better balanced than the
Old Liners.

Returns to Action
"Snooks" Aitken, varsity for
ward, who hurt his ankle in the
V. M. I. same during the Vir
ginia invasion, returned to ac
tion yesterday. Aitken took only
light work yesterday; however,
it is hoped , that the diminutive
Tar Heel sharpshooter will be
in condition for the N. C. State
game Wednesday night. - While
Aitken was out, Morrie Long,
veteran reserve, capably filled
the Charlotte boy's shoes; Long
featured Carolina's win over
Virginia.

TAR BABY CAGERS
FACE TTOH TILTS
Wolflets and Strong Oak Ridge
Team to Be Met This Week
In Real Court Tests.
The Tar Baby quint, with' two
scalps already under their belt,
will meet some strong competi
tion this week. The Yearlings
journey to Raleigh to meet the
Wolflets on Wednesday and play
hosts to Oak Ridge on Friday.
So far the 'Babies have shown
great strength, both offensively
and defensively in defeating the
Wake Forest frosh and the
Louisburg Collegians by decisive
scores. - But when they meet the
State College frosh they will hit
some real opposition. The Wolf
lets hold a thrilling 25-24 vic
tory over the Duke yearlings.
The Cadets from Oak Ridge
also present a strong club. Last
year the Cadets' big shot was Al
Crater who is playing star for
ward for the Babies this year.
Also Coach Sandy Dameron of
the yearlings remembers this
Crater as the, man who scored
19 points for the Cadets.
The same team which started
against the Louisburgers - will
probably get the call Wednesday
night against the Wolflets. That
team is at forwards, Johnnie
Rainey and Al Crater; at center,
Frank Ramsey; at guards, Jim
Hutchins, and' Bob Stuart. Buck
McCarn, center, and Red Folger,
guard, are the outstanding re
serves who are sure to see action.
