FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1934 THE DAILY TAR HEEL PAGE THBEB Gl da GI193S Outstanding: Two-Miler On Title - Holding Track Squad, y Ranson Runners Finish Highly Successful Season. NETTERS PUT UP RACQUETS UNTIL SPRING QUARTER VARSITY QUINTET ' HOLDS PRACTICE L0NGHARD Coach Shepard Finds Great Dif ficulty in Filling One of Guard Posts. Joseph Edmund Waldrop, bril liant cross, country and track star for the past two years, was elected yesterday by his team mates to captain the harrier out fit in 1935. ' The Greenville boy is a "senior this year, but, having been kept on the bench during his sopho more season because of a bad leg, he will be eligible to finish his career as a runner next fall. Waldrop skyrocketed to fame as a runner about as fast as any person ever attending the Uni versity. Coming from a small town, he had had no experience at all when first he came to Caro lina. , - Early Development However, during his first year, Waldrop ran second only -to Harry Williamson on the fresh man harrier club. He also showed form as a miler on the yearling track team during the spring. In his sophomore year Wal drop stayed out of cross country because of his leg but was a fairly good miler on the South ern Conference championship track team of 1933. Last season in cross country, Waldrop first began showing real form as a distance runner. Al though handicapped most of the time with a strained muscle m his side, he managed to run fair ly high on the harrier club and finished among the leaders in the Southern Conference meet. Fame Starts However, it was on the 1934 track team that Waldrop gained most fame as a runner. Again trying the mile he was just a fair man. About the middle of the season the Greenville boy was shifted to the two mile dis tance and at once began improv ing, getting hislnitial first place in the dual meet with Navy. Then in the Southern Confer ence track meet , at Duke, Wal drop turned in one of the really surprising performances of the t via day. .Not even thought ot as a a possible first place finisher in the . two mile run, he breezed along in fine style and nosed out Bird of Duke and Dunaj of Wash ington and Lee in a great sprint ing finish for the title. During the past season on the cross country team the new cap- (Continued on last page) Ladder Play Ceases with Willis And De Gray Holding Top Positions.

FIRST STRING SCRIMMAGES Coach Quinlan Calls For More Grapplers The varsity and freshman erramolers are undergoing m- w J. f tensive workouts daily at the Tin Can under the guidance of Coach Quinlan. The squad now numbers .close to 60 and is in creasing in size every day. How ever, excellent opportunity of making the team is afforded to entrants in the 118 lb, 125 lb, and the unlimited classes on both the varsity and 'frosh teams as the present number of competitors in these classes is comparatively small The Tar Heel mentor is quite optimistic for the success of the team as compared to last year's showing. The squad has most of its varsity wrestlers from last year and is backed up by the crack freshman team which went through v an undefeated season. The first varsity match will be held sometime in the middle of January and will Be followed by about seven more matches. A definite schedule of the dates of the meets will be announced in a day or two. With the general acceptance of Old Man Winter in Chanel Hill, the varsity and frosh ten nis stars have packed away their well-worn racquets and are pre paring for the yearly layoff. At the end of this week, out door play will come to a1 close, and the sole field of play will be situated in the Tin Can. A few of the nlavers have alreadv taken advantage of the court in the huge arena and have started nightly workouts. The Pinehurst Country Club has just announced its opening fall tournament starting Satur day. If there are yet varsity stars desirous of good competi tion, they will probably enter this annual event, but there is doubt as to whether any Tar Heel will make the trek to the Carolina resort. 1 Willis Tops Varsity Ricky Willis heads the varsity as the fall play takes its closing bow, and will retain that posi tion until the start of ladder play again in the spring. When the opening ladder standing was issued, Willis was in third spot but due to his victories over Levitan, he replaced the varsity captain at the top. The only unranked player to break into the first ten was Gene Goodes, who replaced. Jimmy Johnston on the ladder. Other- wise, the ranking is identically the same, outside of Henderson's rise of three places. Roth Abels and Dowd dropped one in ad vance of Archie's surge into seventh place. The first three on the frosh list have retained their positions with De Gray at the top, follow ed by Robinson and Foreman. The 'greatest advance was made by Seymore Fast, who moved four notches in taking fourth place from Ray Bartelman. Van Hecke and Parker are the only two to drop from the ranking and were replaced respectively bv Jimmy, Bloom and Bob Hagey. Bloom came from nowhere to take seventh place through three successive victories, whereas Ilagey moved into the big ten by virture of a default from Parker. Coach Bo Shepard sent his whole squad through a scrim mage yesterday in the Tin Can, preparing for the opening of the basketball season shortly af ter the Christmas holidays. The cagers started the after noon with the usual shooting and conditioning drills. The scruos tnen went through, a practice contest while the out standing candidates for the team got their eyes on the bas ket from the foul line. finally Coach Shepard sent his first lineuD on the floor against some reserves. Captain Snooks Aitken had his usual place at forward and was pair ed with Mel Nelson, letter re serve last year. Ivan Glace. another regular veteran, ran at the center post, while Jim Mc- Cachren, All-Southern, rounded out the, letter players at one of the guards. Coach Shepard will probably have the most difficulty getting a capable starter for the other guard left vacant by ex-Captain Dave.McCachren. Ben Blood, letterman, is suppose to have the (Continued on last page) OTEIrty T wo TO WEIGH IN AT EMERSON Boxing intramurals which previously had been called for Monday, have been shifted a day and will start instead on Tuesday, December 11.

Eack team was the outstanding eleven in its section, with the exception of the Middies Who rank probably second to Pittsburgh.

They were George Bar clay, brilliant guard ; Frank Larsen, leading flankman of the nation ; and Fred Borries, rank ing Midshipman backfield star. Don Hutson, Francis Lund, and Bobbie Grayson failed by one to garner all the votes. Bob Reyn olds. Charlie Hartwig, and Mil lard Howell lacked two votes. The closest race was for the pivot position with Lester of Texas Christian and Robinson of Notre Dame battling for top honors, and the Rambler getting first choice by a lone vote. All-Campus Correction With the names-and-resid-dences-listing in the student directory giving us a little "bum steer," the name of "Bucky" Harris, All-Campus selection from S. A. E., was erroneously given as Richard M. Harris, who is a member of the same fraternity. However, we take this op portunity of saying that "Bucky's" f ull insignia is Wil liam Clinton Harris, Jr., and to apologize for this misleading error.
