Scoring touchdowns early in the second and third quarters and driving Jown to the eight yard line as the game ended, Duke, supposedly boasting jnly a stodgy, conservative offense, stole the passing fireworks from Caro lina. Unworried by the rain that fell in spurts throughout the game, the Blue Devils, led by their partners of backfield mayhem, Eric the Red Tipton, George Wart-a-man McAfee, playing his first game of the season, Bob Spangler, and Bob O'Mara were in command throughout the game. Every fan in the stadium came to see Carolina open up a Southwestern wide-open passing game but it was Duke that made the most of aerial warfare. A i 20 yard pass from Tipton to McAfee put the Dukes in position to score their t nrst touchdown, while a Tipton-to-Spangler toss, after .the interception of ' a Carolina forward, helped set up the second Blue Devil touchdown, i Altogether, Duke completed six out of nine passes with Tipton doing he notching for 87 aerial yards. Carolina outgained the Blue Devils with 111 yards by completing nine out of 14 passes, but not a toss was effective when it counted. So, Duke was able to maintain its position among the -""li-- rvV?n folks of the nation, keeping its record unsullied unbeaten, unscored upon, and certainly unembarrassed. So . stout were the Duke defenses, that only once did Carolina get past the Duke 45 yard line. That was near the end of the first half when sparked by a 44-yard run by George Stirn weiss, the Wolfmen drove to the very shadows of the Duke goal post before Bob Spangler intercepted a forward pass on the Blue Devil 10 yard line. Carolina seemed to lack spirit and dash. The rain dampened the Tar Heel attack, and that helped put the lid on the team verve. George Stirnweiss helped keep the flicker of Carolina hopes alive while he was in the ball game. He strived valiantly but could not outkick Eric the In this roadster Russel Ludwig Owen was fatally injured yesterday noon.

Jim Lalanne, the Bayou kid, came out form under the publicity landslide to pace a weak Tar Heel attack in the fourth quarter that back-fired when Tipton intercepted a forward at midfield to start a Duke drive that ended on the (Continued on Page Three)
