This afternoon's game" will mark the third day of outdoor work on Emerson field by the diamonders. Yesterday the squad took a windswept hitting, infielding, and outfieldmg drill, that was at times interrupted by the gusts of miniature dust storms. Stirnweiss George Stirnweiss, who brought joy to all his beholders during the pigskin season, brought some more joy to base ball followers by his work at second during the infield drill. George picked up everything that came close to him, and ex hibited an arm of steel. Today's game will give Coach BunnHearn his first opportunity to size up pitching prospects for this coming season.

Dependable Druggists Since 1892 The strongest division of the Tar Heel fencing team will not see action in the second meet for the Blue and White swordsmen Saturday against Kentucky. The invading Wildcats have no epee team and thus the Blue and White epeeists will have to be content with just watching the proceedings. In place of the epee matches two extra sabre contests will be held. Thus, there will be nine foil and nine sabre bouts, a total of 18 instead of the conventional 17. Kentucky This is the first year of inter collegiate competition for the Kentucky fencers. In their open er they were disastrously de feated by an exceptionally strong University of Illinois squad. The Kentucky fencing team is tutored by Dr. Scott D. Breck inridge, twice the national foils champion, epee medalist, and Olympic team member. Assist ing him is Dr. P. M. Knapp, formerly of Columbia university fencing team. , The Invaders The six man team invading Chapel Hill this week-end from Lexington will be captained by Scott D. Breckinridge, Jr. The foil team will consist of Virgil K. Beasley, Captain Breckin ridge, and W. S. Riley. Stanley Hays, Harold L. Riley, and Chester Robbins will oppose the weak but greatly improved Tar Heel sabremen. So, that leaves Epeemen Ber nie Aleskovsky, undefeated so far and with only one point scored against him, and Bill Kaplan accessible for judging while Captain Allan Bloom, Richard Gips, Dave Malone and possibly James McCallum will take up the blades in foil accom panied by Bloom, Gips and Mur chison in sabre.

It was previously an nounced that four ' grapplers would make the trip, but George Patrick and Ike Davis, 135 and 155-pounders respectively, will be unable to compete. Entering the meet for Caro lina, are Johnson Harriss, 118 pounds, and Tom Pitts, 145 pounds. ; During the current sea son, both headed, the otherwise weak Tar Heel attack. Harriss gained his sixth straight victory and the Big Five championship in his weight last week by deci sioning Levy in the State college meet. Mr. Pitts Pitts, sophomore class presi dent who would much rather wrestle than try to get a budget passed, lost his first match in two years when he was deci sioned in the Washington and Lee contest several weeks ago. Captain of last season's fresh man tkam, Tom will prove plen ty troublesome to the big shot matmen from VMI and Wash ington and Lee, who are tied for first place standings in the con ference. The last individual champ for Carolina was Percy Idol, who i brought home the heavyweight crown in 1934. "Percy," says Coach Chuck, "was the greatest wrestler I've seen at this Uni versity in the 13 years I've been here." The coach will referee the Carolinas AAU wrestling meet at High Point, March 11 and 12. Pitts is likely to enter the event in the 145-lb. class, and George Zink, grappler of last year, will fight for the 118 lb. title. The conference tournament is being held at VPI this year, and will open with the preliminaries tomorrow afternoon and con tinue through Saturday. There was no meet last year.

Howe, Jr. It's going to be an extraordi nary afternoon. Carolina and Washington and Lee, as is well known to one and all, the usual finalists, are meeting in the aft ernoon, not in the evening, mind you, but the afternoon at 4:30 Duke and State, with a bit of a grudge to settle, will meet in the first round at 9:30. Those are the headliners in today's open ing round of the Southern Con ference, basketball tournament in Memorial auditorium this afternoon in Raleigh. Clemson and Richmond, the latter squad without the excel lent services of Captain Pete Jacobs, will meet in the seal- breaker at 3 o'clock and The Citadel and Maryland will start the evening proceedings at 8. Two Complete Teams Coach Walter Skidmore will take 10 men, the maximum number allowed, to Raleigh this afternoon and, if all goes well, will take the same number to morrow. The tournament, we hesitate to say game, will be the last Carolina action for Andy Bershak, Captain Earl Ruth, Pete Mullis, Foy Grubb. Both WDNC and WPTF will carry complete radio coverage of the tournament. Should Carolina win this aft ernoon, it will play the winner of the Richmond-Clemson game tomorrow night and should it win that game, it will play the winner of the game between the winners of the State-Duke and (Continued on last page) position.
