NYU Lost To Richmond . . atlp Car . . . NYU Plays Here Tonight CHAPEL HILL, N. C., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1938 oxers Smash Through With Easy Win Over State Men0 6-2 Lee Wrest f B Harriss Gets Lone Victory; Frosh Turned Aside, 23-15 Davis Loses First Mat Match To Farrier In Best Bout One Fall; One Draw By William L. Beerman Losing the first bout on a de cision, the Generals of Washing ton and Lee marshalled their forces for a complete rout of the Tar Heel wrestlers in the Tin Can last night and strutted away victorious 231-4i. It was the tenth straight time for a Carolina team to go down in defeat before the wrestlers from Lexington. Opening with a fast-moving 118-lb. contest, the only one for Carolina to win, the meet pro gressed in the victors' favor be fore a small crowd of 250 fans who found little to cheer about until the match between football-playing Jim Woodson and his Mexican opponent, Henry Braun, came up. Woodson found an even match in the 175 pounder and battled for 13 min utes to secure a draw, the bout running into the extra periods. Harriss Johnson Harriss, unbeaten at 118-lbs. this season, saved his teammates from utter ruijj by getting the referee's decrsion over Harry Crane. A letterman on the conference champion basketball squad of last year, Crane recently gave up the sport to enter wrestling. Beginning their march to tri umph in the next bout, the Gen erals rolled onward over the reluctantly-retreating Carolinians with a steadiness that won them two falls and four decisions, the other match ending in a draw. First Defeat Spoiling his perfect record of wins, Tom Pitts, freshman cap tain of last year, dropped a close decision to Nielsen in the 145-lb. class. Pitts, never defeated since he began wrestling here, found his style of attack ineffective against the aggressive General grappler. The best struggle of the eve ning saw Ike Davis lose his first mat encounter on a decision to Farrier. Outweighed, the red headed Davis refused to be be pinned and fought hard for the lead, but the more experi (Continued on last page) STYLES FOR SPRING -o Select your spring suit now while our stock is complete.

Losing the first bout, the young Generals came back to win the next five straight before dropping the last two. Opening the evening's pro gram in a 118-lb. bout, Walter Lambeth gained an early advan tage that ended in his favor as he pinned Washington and Lee's Sam Ames with a half nelson and wrist lock in 2:10.

Tonight at 8 o'clock in the Tin Can the Violent Violets of NYU clash with Carolina's White Phantoms in the biggest inter sectional basketball game these parts have 'seen in years. The Gothamites come down from the big city with a record of 11 wins in 12 starts. Not since the Gophers of Minnesota left their imprint in the opening game of the Violet schedule, have the New Yorkers been beaten. Since then they have beaten such representative east ern teams as St. Francis, Man hattan, and deorgetown. Carolina Record Carolina will carry no mean record into the match for that matter. For the Blue and White in 13 games have won 10 clashes. Fheir three defeats came in the middle of the season at the hands of Wake Forest, Princeton, and St. Joseph. Dur ing the year, the Tar Heels have had winning streaks of seven straight and three straight. To night they will try to run he three string to four. NYU, coached by Jake Cann, one of the nation's greatest coaches and in his day one of its greatest players, has long been noted for its great teams. Year after year Cann has tutored strong, well-balanced aggregations, that have rated high among the top quintets of the country. Twice Before Carolina has met NYU twice before on the basketball courts. In both instances, the Phantoms fell before the onslaught of the Violets in Madison Square Gar den. Stage fright was the big- Dr. R. R. Clark Dentist PHONE 6251 1 Over the Bank Captain, My Captain :j f ' - Above are the two captains in tonight's Carolina-NYU battle at the Tin Can. Earl Ruth on the left is in his second year as leader of the, White Phantoms. Ruth, who hails from Charlotte, was All Southern guard last year. This semester he has played top ball and is second to Pete Mullis in the Phantom scoring chase. To the right of Mr. Ruth, is Bernie Carnevale of the Violets. Carnevale a forward hails from Somerville, New Jersey. He is a senior at the New York school. So far this season, he has kicked in over 80 tallies to the NYU scoring total. As has been hinted before, the game will be a revenge match for Carolina, for in the past two years, the New Yorkers have beaten Carolina twice in games played in Madison Square Garden. Catching the Big Towners away from New York should make the Phantoms slight favorites in a toss-up game. Bloom In Tin Can Tonight ' At 8 : Violets Plucked Entering Virginia on the second leg of their south ern tour, the NYU Violets went down before the Uni versity of Richmond bas ketball team 34-25 last night. Tarlow, guard, was high scorer for the northerners with 8 points. Boardman, previous leader, was field to one field goal and two fouls. Burde, 6:4 center, was high man for Richmond with 13 points. gest reason for those two losses. But tonight the Phantoms will be right at home in the big and airy Tin Can, and that in itself should be enough to make the Blue and White slight pre-game favorites. Carolina should win, but by no more than five or six points. If the Phantoms are to come through, they must stop Irwin Witty, high scoring center, and Captain Bernie Carnevale. Witty has scored over 100 points this year. Ben Dilworth will attempt to hold him down tonight. Car nevale, a steady, dependable player, will be watched by Foy Grubb. Grubb, who has held Bill Mann down to two points and Jim Waller to five, will be ready to tackle the job. Mullis Pete Mullis should offer the chief scoring argument for the Skidmore lads. Mullis has scored 45 of the 90 points he has gar nered this season in the last three games. Either Tarlow or Dowd will be assigned to watch Dead-Eye Pete.

C, Feb. 4 Jump ing into the pro column with both feet here tonight, the Carolina boxing team smacked out a 6-2 win over the State ringmen while some 2300 noisy spectators cheered, booed and heckled the contestants. State's only win was in the 145-lb. class, the other point coming from draws in the 135-lb. and unlimited classes. Little Features Crowell Little was the thrill of the evening, decisioning Don Traylor in a rough and tumble three rounds. The two boys mix ed freely but the Carolinian cov ered nicely in the slug sessions and counter-punched more ac curately than Traylor punched. Although Little had a slight edge in the first two rounds, the third was all his and he made the most of it. "We Wuz . . Ed Hubbard, getting better day by day in every way, was awarded only a draw in the heavyweight bout although the judges favored him slightly in the balloting. Of the three- votes, one called no decision on the bout, one called it a draw,, and the third gave it to the Tar Heel. The decision being taken from the majority of the votes, the bout was called a draw. Billy Winstead gave the Tar Heels their first point in the bantamweight class by decision ing Billy Shaw. The Carolina , boy easily won all three rounds Captain Joe Murnick had no dif ficulty decisioning State's Ed Young after once getting used' to the unorthodox stance usedl by the Terror. Although Fisher and Brown locked arms in the second round! of the 135-lb. bout and did a double dive over the ropes and onto the floor, both boys re-entered the ring and boxed to a draw.
