Although Carolina has enter ed only four men in the South ern Conference tournament, be ing held at Lexington, Va., to day and tomorrow, these four should gain individual honors as well as place their team in top ranks for scoring honors. Captain Bonner will be seek ing a higher title than the sec ond place which he holds in his weight when he meets some of the best stars of the tournament in his bouts.

Duke looks the winner. . with our Tar Heels running a close second. . . Maryland, Virginia and Virginia Tech will run neck-to-neck, finishing in the preced ing order. The Blue Devils' superiority in the field events give them the edge. . . they are also strong in the sprints and hurdles. . Mary land banks on Evans, Slye and Headley. . . Virginia on St. John, Hawley, Wilkin and Call. . . V. P. I. on Mothershead and Rol lins. Now here's a way for the Tar Heels to fly through with high est honors. . . Carolina has won the title in four of the past six Indoor Games. . . on with our solution. . . we'll count Harry Williamson good for two firsts or 10 points. . . from the rest of the team there are 15 men who are capable of scoring. . . each of these tracksters can aid the team cause by taking thirds and fourths, if he cannot gain the firsts and seconds. If we count two points each from all 15, our score would net pole vault. . . Barney Bannon in the high jump. . . Earl Connel m the broad jump. . . Ed Juliber in the shot put. Both Red Drake and Bob Gardiner will step out unless I'm sadly mistaken. . . both Tar Heels have scores to settle. . . Ed Juliber can do 46 feet if he puts all 220 pounds behind the ball. and everything he does will help in a big way because Duke has four ace shot-putters capable of taking 1-2-3-4 in the scoring. which means 11 points for the Duke cause. . . Dick Bear should repeat as pole vault champion. . he has looked good in practice. . two of our Reds (heads) , Mont gomery and Rosser, should run hot. . . they ran a brilliant race in Charlotte. . .watch Monty take the curves. . . and Roy step out in the mile. Most of the out-of-state teams will pull into town today. ..they are guests of the University to night. . . 50 teams were on the lost official count. . . approxi mately 425 athletes will partici pate in the Games. . . you won't recognize the Tin Can tomor row. . . everything has been torn up to make way for one of the most complete indoor track plants in the country.

Ferguson (Special to the Daily Tar Heel) Memorial Auditorium, Ra leigh, March 5 The Carolina White Phantoms began their de fense of their Southern Confer ence title here this afternoon by easily whipping the University of Virginia five 39-21. The Tar Heels ran up a lead of 11 points before the Cavalier courtmen could get the range of the basket and then added two points for every one of the Vir ginian team to come out on the long end of a 21-5 score at the half. Sophomore Earl Ruth and Center Latch Webster led the way for the Phantoms in the first half netting up four and three baskets respectively. Coming back in the second half, the Cavaliers continued to take the ball on the tap only to have it taken away from them by the alert pair of Tar Heel guards, Ruth and McCachren, who made the most of their op portunities enabling the Phan toms to rack up 18 more points before the final gun. Captain Ray Smith and Book er led the Virginian's attack in the second half, each scoring three baskets. Bershak contri buted one goal for the Tar Heels before he fouled out in the sec ond half. Ruth, Webster an McCachren plus the smooth co ordination of the entire Tar Heel quintet was the combination that spelled the doom of the Vir ginia five in this year's Southern Conference competition.
