Having won the first two battles, the Tar Heels will find Dr. Mai Stevens, the genial and erudite coach of the Violets, lying in wait with good fellowship, a few machine guns, and, by the by, a football team that is reputed to have reserves four deep and a first team averaging 200 pounds.. ..... , .. .. In case the man on. the street should, pop. the , question, the Violets are plenty, strong-this year. They tore through Maine with greater ease than a Re publican candidate for presi dent, then followed that with a 25-6 drubbing of Rutgers by the banks of the Old Raritan. This caused much groaning and hair pulling among the 'Td die for dear old Rutgers" set who en visioned a great team this fall under Harvey Harmon. It also made the future Violet grid foes turn uneasily at their practice sessions, for 'such power cannot be denied or words to that ef fect. NYU will start a team to morrow that has three back- field men and scads of lines men going over the 200-pound mark. It is potent, well versed in the fundamentals of the game, and adept, at digging Dp bewildering plays. 5 Up in New York, they ex pect NYU to beat the Tar Heels. Dr Stevens, himself thinks his ball club is equal to the task of taking Caro lina. Maybe so, but Stevens hasn't beaten a Southern team yet. He tried for four years while at Yale against Georgia, and each time he lost. He transferred his master-minding duties to NYU, but the jinx followed him as the Vio lets fell before Carolina twice. Leo Collins, who has been scouting Carolina for NYU, says this year's Tar Heel team is better than the '37 outfit, but he still thinks the Violets will win. Collins also added to be ware of Stirnweiss and Lalanne. Another thought he dropped around the NYU campus was that Bronco Brunner was a bet ter football player than Whizzer White, who at the moment is getting $15,000 a year for parad ing before the curious at profes sional football games. This corner with great trepi dation Dicks Carolina by a touchdown. NYU has bigger re serves, but. remember this: Any time a Southern team plays one from the North, it fights the (Continued on last oage) When In Greensboro Shop At "GREENSBORO'S BEST STORE" ' o The Home of Quality College Clothes o Varsity Entrains Tonight For NYU Tilt Tomorrow Tar Bateies MENTORS RUN SQUAD THROUGH FINAL DRILL The Carolina frosh football tutors put the final touches on their squad yesterday, and today they send them before the pub lic eye in their initial home ap pearance.

Opponents Work Out While the Carolina freshmen went through their final paces, their opponents were making last minute preparations before their encounter here today. In formation from the Techlet camp yesterday disclosed that the Tech first-year men may be without the services of one of their best backs, Buddy Hender son. This stocky, youngster from Cumberland, Md., ' injured his knee in scrimmage last week and will most likely be out of the lineup for the rest of the season. In their first game of the sea- son, m wnicn tney trouncea Bluefield College, 19-0, the Tech yearlings showed a potentially capable line led by Brad Mont gomery and Bob Lawson, hard hitting ends, Bill Tate and Johnny Wycoff , scrappy guards, Frank Debord and Ralph Unter zuber, vicious tackles, and Bill Zydiak, promising center.
