Our last venture in the art of
procrastination or is it' prog
nostication was rather unsuc
cessful and we are still haunted
by it. Nevertheless, here is an
attempt to pick winners m contests-:
that the officials often
miss. Who can forget the fam
ous decisions rendered by Ally
Wolfe last year? His job is one
we'd rather not have because un
less a fight ends in a knockout
the decision of the official will
always be -rebuked. Mr. Wolfe
probably called last year's fights
the way he saw them, and no
complaints have a right to be
registered.
In the featherweight division,
a field of eight men are entered.

the shortness of his arms. If the
stocky Carolina captain should
be fortunate enough to meet
stocky men in his weight instead
of lanky lads, he stands a good
chance to go through to the fin

Final Minutes of Play
TO MEET V. M. I. TONIGHT
Basketball Tonight
Carolina's varsity cagers re
turn to action on the home
court here tonight for the first
time in three weeks when they
engage the V. M. I. Cadets at 8
o'clock.
The Tar Baby court squad
will meet the Oak Ridge cadets
in the Tin Can at 7:30.
Outscoring a game Chi Psi
contingent in every period, D.
K. E. concluded a sensational
drive that fully earned for them
the fraternity intramural bas
ketball championship yesterday
afternoon in the Tin Can as
they turned aside Chi Psi by a
35-24 count.
Immediately after the Chi Psi
D. K. E. championship game, Old
West took the court against the
defending champions, Mangum,
and proceeded to blast them off
the court as they displaced the
former title-holders by a 29-11
margin.
First Period Spurt
Holding Chi Psi to a lone
tally in the first period, D. K. E.
assumed an 8-1 lead in that quar
ter as Moore and Montgomery
scored two baskets each. Willis
started the second period with
a two pointer for D. K. E., and
Foreman scored Chi Psi's first
field goal after 10 minutes of
play.
Hagey and Atwood tallied for
Chi Psi as the last half got
underway to bring the score up
to 21-11. The Dekes then went
on a scoring splurge that saw
Willis and Moore combining in
a great bit of team play to give
D. K. E. the eds:e 30-11 as the
quarter ended. With D. K. E
inserting new players in the
final period, Chi Psi proceeded to
show a bit of scoring power as
Hagey and Foreman tallied to
bring the final score to 35-24.

Although the score of 20-18

Tar Heels than they did against
State and Duke earlier in the

Good Bout
Carolina s Williams was
thrown for the first time this
year when he ran up against
Wildcat Blackwelder in the 165-
lb. class. The latter regularly
holds down the 175-lb. post, but
was moved down for this meet

SENIOR GIRLS WIN
CLASS CAGE GAME
Defeat Junior Co-eds 45-34 to Win
Class Championship
By Fletcher IF. Ferguson
Raleigh, Feb. 27 Carolina vir
tually captured its third conse
cutive Big Five basketball crown
here tonight as it came back in
the second half to defeat N. C.
State 31 to 29 before a capacity
crowd of 4,500 fans.
State led for practically the
entire distance, holding a 20-15
advantage at half time. Howev
er, the Phantoms were not to be
denied and with brilliant shoot
ing by Nelson and Pete Mullis
in the closing minutes of play,
came through to victory.
Berry High Scorer
Connie Mack Berry, the
Tack's great center, led the scor
ing with 13 points, while Nelson,
definitely back in form, was runner-up
with nine. Earl Ruth fol
lowed with eight.
State led the play the entire
first half, Dalrymple and Wom
ble continually setting up long
shots for the massive front post
men to follow. Carolina received
a severe jolt after only 10 min
utes of play, when Andy Ber
shak was forced from the game
on four personals.
The final 10 minutes were as
thrilling as any fan could hope
for. State was out in front by a
24-16 margin. Two fouls by Ka
veny and a one-hander action
shot by Mullis brought Carolina
to 20. Berry scored his final
points of the game as he follow
ed up Flythe's long shot.
Behind by six points, Carolina
kept fighting and fighting hard
as Nelson paved the way; Twq
successive, f ouls by Dalrymple on
Nelson gave the Tars 22. The
brilliant forward theni added
three more as he made good a
field goal and being fouled whilo

The senior co-eds defeated the
juniors 45-34 in the final game

wards, and Frances Caffey, Hes
ter Campbell, and Anne Baker,
guards assumed a lead of about
10 points which was not threat
ened seriously by the junior sex

Ross and. Nancy Lawlor also
helped carry the seniors to vic
tory.
