CHAPEL HILL, N. C, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1936 b I I SEE BY THE PAPERS By Ira Sarasohn 4 Among the many eventful things that have happened in the sports' world since this column last appeared is the discovery of boxing's "white hope." According to a United Press article of February 7, Steve Hamas has announced that he will be ready to take a crack at Louis next summer. Hamas last appeared, in the squared ring in Germany last summer in a bout with Schmel ing. In the course of the fight, the German lad administered a sound beating to Hamas with the most lasting hurt being an injury to the knee. Since then, the former University of Penn sylvania athlete has been nurs ing the injury and has been forced to curtail his athletic en deavors. While undergoing treatment for the injured knee, Hamas was operating a night club in our home city, Newark. While vacationing, we had a chance to speak to Hamas and he claimed to be itching to get a. crack at the Detroit boxer. The United Press article re vealed that the doctor gave Ha mas the 0. K. and now Steve is ready to K. 0. the Brown Bomb er. Speaking of Louis reminds us of an excellent crack passed by one of the sports writers con cerning Joe's quiek knockout of Retzlaff , the Fighting Farmer. The crack was to affect that the A. A. A. provided for the ploughing under of many farm products but Louis provided for the ploughing under of a farm er. ' . The present spread of colds expresses better than anything our former contention, that this school is in DIRE need of a suitable athletic plant. Who can deny that the trek in sweat soaked clothes from the Tin Can to Emerson's lockers wasn't an important factor in laying up two varsity boxers with the nu? It is too bad that some of WRESTLERS GIVEN TOUGH MAT DRILL Quinlan Seeks to Put Candidates Back Into Winning Column With More Practice COACHES TO SHOW MOTION PICTURES OF TRACK EVENTS Show to be Part of Training for In door Track Meet Coming Soon With only two days remain ing before the V. M. I. meet. Coach Quinlan sent his wrestling candidates through a hard prac tice session yesterday in order to try to swine- hart inn fho winning column again. The Tar Heels will have full strength except for Captain Bonner with the return nf Frank Umstead and Sam Lytle, who have been held out on ac count of injuries and sickness. Bill Kephart, a reserve, will wrestle in the 145-lb. class which was formerly filled by Bonner. Looks Good Ed Tankersley, who has turn ed in wins in the last two meets over V. P. I. and Navy, should show up well against his Cadet opponent. Coach Quinlan is ex pecting the other members of his team to give the Cadets stiff competition in their bouts. The freshman Wrestling team received another blow yesterday when Crystal, the star heavy weight, left school for a week end trip to Florida. He will be replaced by Hod, a .reserve in the 175-lb. class who has been sick for several days. Co-captain Hastie and Judson were able to be out for practice yesterday after being on the sick list for a while. Coach Quin lant plans to replace Peacock with either Davenport or Mich aels, who are reserves,, in the 145-lb. class. It is hoped that Co captain Woodson will be back be fore the team leaves for V. M.SI. to fill his regular post in the 175-lb. class. The Tin Can is the daily scene of sprinters, distance runners, vaulters, jumpers, and weight throwers, working hard to get in shane for the indoor track meets which come in the near future. Although this intensive pre paration is beginning to show results, Coaches Bob Fetzer and Dale Ranson have decided to help more, by showing moving pictures on Sunday , afternoon, February 12, in the banquet hall in Graham Memorial. The pictures which will be shown Sunday afternoon at 3 :30, will show Intercollegiate record holders, Olympic champ ions, and winners of the I. C. A. A. A. A. meet in. action. There will also be some pictures of Carolina's best runners in action. The coaches believe that these pictures will prove not only ben eficial to the track squad, but a genuine source of entertainment for all interested in track. You do not have to be a member of the track squad to attend these pictures. Moving Pictures BABIES PRACTICE FOR STATE GAME First Year Basket ball Squad Gotes Through First Work out in Five Days The Student Co-operative Clothing Store HAS THE PRIVILEGE TO ANNOUNCE THAT MR. FRANK STYLE EXPERT OF D'ALONZO LANCASTER WILL BE AT THEIR STORE TODAY & TOMORROW A complete Spring line of patterns will be on display The Tar Baby basketball squad went through its first workout in five days yesterday afternoon and outside of a lit tle stiffness showed plenty of pep. Most of the period was filled with offensive and defensive drills. The session was climaxed by a 15-minute scrimmage with the varsity in which every man on both squads was given a chance to show some form. The frosh, though at times ragged, put on a rugged exhibition. State Frosh The game with Asheville high school, scheduled for to night at the Tin Can, has been definitely called off, but the tilt with the State frosh will go ahead as a preliminary to the varsity game, at Raleigh. All members of the first string line were present, and the boys are anxious to avenge their two- point defeat at the hands of the Techlets last month in the re turn encounter tomorrow night. Practice will be held tonight. LAWSON TO TURN GYM INSTRUCTION TO CALISTHENICS Upporclassmen Request That Routine Return to Plan Last Quarter After a brief trial at gymnas tics for the entire group, the gym classes will return to the old calisthenics system used last quarter. Dr. R. B. Lawson, By- num director, made this an nouncement yesterday. The change to the old system, he stated, is due to the requests of upperclassmen. However, gymnastics instruction interest ed a large group. For this group, special periods will be held prior to the regular Monday, Wednes day, and Friday gym classes, and also on Tuesdays, Thurs days, and Saturdays. The doctor requests that those who take their gym periods at Bynum should not fail to report as usual as the checking system will again be in force. He also desires that anyone interested in apparatus work should report one or two hours earlier than the regular gym classes, and also the other days of the week. They will be amply provided with instruction. PHANTOMS DRILL FOR STATE GAME TOMORROW NIGHT Tar Heel Basktetballers Prepare for Counter-Charge Into State Territory WINNER GETS FIRST PLACE ;the alumni that are in a position to start a fund for the building oi a gymnasium cant spend a couple of hours tonight in the Tin Can and help blow smoke without tobacco. Or maybe they would en j oy working up a good sweat and then run with us over to Emerson to the lockers. An experience of that sort will cer tainly change any ideas they may be harboring that we don't need a gym. Not'many folks around here are aware of the misfortune Jhat befell the great N. Y. U. quintet. Ranked as tops in the country, the New Yorkers went the way of most great mid-sea son teams and lost two games in a row. Last Friday night they lost to Georgetown on a Wash ington, D. C. court by a 36-34 count. On the following night in Philadelphia they lost by a ! 34-31 score to Temple's five. According to the New York pap ers, the i(ame wasn't as close as the score indicates and the Temple team was superior to the disheartened New York quintet. N. Y. XL's defeat throws a new aspect on the Olympic bas ketball situation. Up until the first defeat, no other team was conceded a chance to represent the United States in basketball in the games in Germany this year. (Continued from first page) - movies : "Eventually coior win be. used in all films, but the pres ent process is too expensive for extensive use. Technicolor is more popular in England than it is here. - "In Hollywood they are avoid ing the new decency censorship by going back to the 18th cen tury for their settings. People want excitement, and the mov ies are going to give it to them. The box office is the real cen sorship." Music "As for the use of music in motion pictures, I'm in favor of it just so long as it is subordin ated: I can't say just who the best actors are, but in 'The In former,' Victor McLaglen gave the best performance that I have ever seen on the screen. Mae West writes her own sto ries. Sometimes the producers wish she wouldn't. Garbo is a great actress, but as yet, she has not been able to do any thing outstanding Shirley Tem ple fs a born mimic, an extraor dinary person, and an actress." She continued, "Anna Sten is a marvelous actress, but Holly wood " almost ruined her I thought Noel Coward's 'Scoun drel' was a terrible bore 'What Price Glory' is being made into a talkie with Wallace Beery and Clark Gable I think the 'Thm Man' was one of the best come dies that I have seen Holly wood should make more come diesPaul Muni always over plays his roles." Returning to a discussion of Russian movies, she concluded her talk with, "They make a number of children's films in Russia, but no child is allowed to make more than one film for fear he will become conscious of his importance. The Russians asked me to mail them some American movie magazines. Per haps we should mail them all to Russia." With The Advertisers After a long dull lecture, it is really a pleasure to relax over a sandwich and drink at the Book Exchange in the Y. M. C. A. During the morning recess this is the most popular spot on the campus. Here can be bought through efficient and courteous service text books, college supplies, gifts, athletic supplies, college jewelry, and a late breakfast. The institution is owned by the University and managed by Mr. Klutz, mere is no pront on sales made by the book depart ment. While patronizing the Book "Ex" you are at the same time patronizing your University as well as obtaining articles of the highest quality at the most rea sonable prices. ELISHA MITCHELL Dr. R. W. Bost, professor of chemistry, gave a talk entitled, try" at the 366th meeting of the Elisha Mitchell society Tues day night in Phillips hall. The talk was illustrated throughout by slides, which were used to show the molecu lar structure of the various or ganic compounds. No Co-ed Baskietball lne co-ea oasKetDaii game which was scheduled for Tues day night between the girls and a group of town women was called off as was all of the col lege athletics. Coach Walter Skidmore bore down on his "White Phantoms yesterday afternoon and sent them through one of the hardest drills of the season in prepara tion for the N. C. State game tomorrow night. The Tar Heels are being groomed to attack the Red Ter rors in an attempt to get the co veted first place of the Big Five circuit now held by State's five The winner of Friday night's event in Thompson gym in Ra leigh will move up to this posi tion while the loser slides down to third place. Favorites Beginning their season as heavy favorites to win the Southern Conference crown, State beat everything in sight until the Tar Heels got hot one night and scared the Terrors in to a 37-35 defeat. Not to be out done, the Raleigh boys came back to beat Duke by a 36-33 count and Duke in turn eked out a 34-32 win over the local lads. This week's game will do much to straighten out the entangle ment of wins and defeats. The last time the . White Phantoms met the State boys, Captain Jim McCachren led his quint to their victory by pulling them from behind several times with well placed shots. Flythe, State forward, came through with 13 points to lead the even ing's scoring, but he "was press ed by his teammate at center, Connie Mack Berry, who ran up a total of 12 points. State Captain Charley Aycock (Continued on last page) A radio announcer comments on the failure of American ath letes to salute Hitler. He thinks no salute at all is better than some American salutes. JLet Us Prepare Your Car For " Your Weekend Trip Your Car Needs Lubrication After The Bad Weather.
