That his play was superb is substan tiated by the records. He did cot drop a set in the entire tournament, only allowing Gor don Robinson to once come within calling distance. Gordy captured a 7-5 set after having absorbed a 6-0 love drubbing in the opening set. . . Ramsay play ed a total of 10 sets, eliminating such competition as Caton (Duke), Robinson, De Gray and Henderson. During this exer tion he won 61 games and only lost 24. Summarizing that yet more, we see that Ramsay limit ed his opponents to an average of 24 games per set. Not bad! Speaking of that tennis" final between Potts and Henderson on Saturday: we spotted quite ' a few notables mingling-with the spectators; namely Dr. Archi bald Henderson, Head Coach "Bear" Wolf, and President Frank Graham. We can easily understand why Mr. Henderson was present; we venture to say that Mr. Wolf had heard rumors of Archie Henderson's "constant plugging" and was scouting pos sible material to plug the 36 line ; but we are unable to deter mine what was Graham's plan! Speaking of Mr. Archibald Henderson, eminent mathemati cian and biographer: we are prompted tbquote Miri. r A few days ago after Archie had caus ed a stir at Pinehurst some weeks ago with a victory over Rainville, Canada's Davis Cup per, Dr. Henderson was heard to say, ""All this publicity for Archie is doing me no good what soever. iTeviousiy Arcnie was referred to as Dr. Henderson's son, and now Pm being intro duced as the father of Archie Henderson, the tennis player. Woe is meT And sneakmG: or our new friend. Rav "Bear Wolf: -we 7 " can thank a Trad f ootball knee that we are fortunate enough to have hnn as a coaeh. ine ex planation is very simple--: Hay was quite a Daseball player m his dav. captaining: the Texas Christian "University ball team, and was signed by the Cincin nati Reds immediately after graduation. He was farmed out and played two years of minor league ball. However, as mentioned, a bad ""football knee caused him to drop the diamond pastime iand return to the grid iron as a coach. See ? And not speaking of Coach Kenfield : we intend to mention him although he doesn't fall into the present scheme of discussion. We offer him our appreciation for ref ereeing at the conference tennis final. Coaeh mounted the pedestal (after tottering preca riously on the way to the top of the high chair) and gave a splen did demonstration of how a mumbling score-caller should call the score. Yearling Nine to Play Last Game Under Coach James Today; Imps Favored Captain TO BEGIN AT 4 O'CLOCK Duke's freshman baseball team comes to Chapel Hill today to act as a participant in a game which signifies two things the final game of the season for the Tar Babies and the last game to be played by a Carolina team un der the tutelage of Coach "Lefty" James. Play win start at 4 o'clock. . , The Blue Imps have been in stalled pre-game favorites but the psychological advantage will be on the side of the Jamesmen. The Tar Babies are out to end James coaching career in glory, maintain their three game win ning, streak, and atone for the two previous defeats at the hands of Duke. Powerful -"-"v The visitors, though, have a very nice ll game winning streak of their own to maintain and do not intend to have it broken at this stage of the sea son. Their club, led by Bergman and Truesdale, has played con sistently good ball and should prove to be a mighty tough ob stacle for the freshmen to hur dle. Improved On the other hand the. Tar Babies have come a long way in their last four games. Just now they are about at their season's top form. The fielders have lost their error-making inclina tions, the pitchers have come through nicely, and the hitting has been almost up to par. Thus, to all appearances, the two teams are as evenly match ed as possible. The score might be large, but the game will be a close one with the issue being de cided in the closing innings. . Cahill, Duke's star pitcher, will start on the mound for the Blue Imps. For the Tar JBabies Coach James will use either Wat son or Davis. S. A. E.

Keward. past weekend there was prob ably the closest competition in the individual events that there has been since the forming of the new conference;, not only in the events but in team competi tion. Duke was far ahead but Car olina and Virginia had it nip and ruck with the outcome being Carolina 34 1-2 to Virginia's 31 2-3. Then came a fight for fourth between Clemson, V. P. L, Maryland and V. M. L, whose scores ranged from 22 1-2 t 18. With the . enlargement of the conference next year the team scores should be hotly contested. Treads In Hunning In the running events Caro lina can claim superiority since she led with 28 points. Duke scored 24 points and Virginia scored "23 points in the running events. Duke scored 44 1-3 points, in the field events, 14 of which came from the broad jump. In the two mile run Jones, Haywood, ntd Daniels ran their best races of this season to score ight points for Carolina. BS1 Daniels was certainly csie happy boy. At first it seemed that he was not in the race but Bill knew what his pace was asd aft er the first mile he began to pass the field in front of him. Bill's determination far surpasses the majority of Carolina field men's capabilities. Sprints In the sprints Earl Connell de serves a hand for the swell 220 he ran Friday. Not conceded a chance of qualifying he ran ap proximately 21.4 sec Jim Finlay is another boy who came through for Carolina scoring four points with fourth place in both the 100 and 220. The difference be tween first and fourth was not much in those races Saturday.

L Petersox After the strong Duke nine " had led 3-1 for the first three innings, Carolina put on a strong fourth inning rally to score four runs and then scor ed two in the sixth to win their first game from the Blue Devils in two years by the score of 7-6. Although the team made six errors, John Humphries, Caro lina's star sophomore pitcher, pitched good ball all the way through the game. He gave up eight hits and five bases on balls but he struck out seven men to keep them under control. He registered his first two strike outs as he fanned "Ace Parker the first two times at bat. Triple Burnette singled in the fourth, Bullard flied out to right field, Strayhorn and McCarn were giv en bases on balls, then Shapiro hit a triple to score the three men on bases. Shapiro came home on a wild pitch to score the fourth run. After Strayhorn had hit a double in the sixth and reached third, Groome singled. The Tar Heel catcher stole home after, Groome had stolen second. Groome scored the second run of the inning as Montgomery col- ected his second hit of the after noon. 'Tete" Naktenis, Duke's star- pitcher who had lost but. one college baseball game until yesterday, was knocked from the box in the fifth inning. Three other pitchers were used during the game including Barley, who- is scheduled to pitch in their game here tomorow in the final match of the season. 6 E l 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 nT,nmnn4AInw -u4.

PcSe Vault In the vault Carolina can feel proud of MaeDonald and Dudley who did their best of the year and yet failed to place. Dick Bear really did jhimself proud as he cleared 12 feet 6 inches to give Carolina 3 1-2 points in an unexpected tie for second place. Ed Juliber showed signs of Ending himself in the shot put as he got off a throw over 44 feet that equals his distance of last year as a freshman. Juli ber was fourth, in front of his teammate Tom Evins. In the relay Carolina did not show, as well as expected. Ull man and Farmer ran excellent races but the exchanges of the baton were very poor causing Carolina to lose inexcusable ground. In the special events Carolina men showed that the Olympic team will probably be honored with their presence. LeGore got off the excellent throw of 212 feet but still in warming up he threw further. Harry William son ran a minute 23.2 seconds of the 880 meters which seems to be the fastest in the country so far this year. Harry's first quarter was 53.8 which is ex ceedingly fast. rifke bits: Rainey. Stolen, bases: Burnette, Strayhorn, McCarn, Shapi ro, Groome.
