Mnnipsill Himns TdDMdDiPiPdD w s Mike Wfiims by SHELLEY ROLFE Following is a letter received by this department from CoL Robert W. Madry, director of the Univer sity news bureau, in answer to an ill-timed and ill-conceived blast con tained hereabouts yesterday. Mr. Shelly Rolfe - v Sports Editor The Daily Tar Heel Chapel Hill Dear Mr. Rolfe: ! It's very commendable on your part to do what you can to secure proper credit for Co-Captain Steve Maronic, Carolina's fine tackle. Your remarks in this morning's (Saturday's) column, however, were far wide of the mark and were with out justification. Had you talked to me before writing, as you have since, I could have told you many things that would have set you straight. The University News Bureau has from time to time been chided gent ly on the ground that we were over publicizing certain players who were candidates for all-star teams. But your column offers the first in stance, so far as I know, where we have been charged with underrat ing the performances of our play ers. I cannot set forth here the pro gram we follow in building up worthy players for all-star teams. There is no particular secret about the plan, but we see no need for publishing the detail's. Suffice to say that it is an ethical program that has proved suc cessful in the past, as witness George Barclay and Andy Bershak. I don't think we have missed oujL on any who should have made first All America teams. As far as Steve Maronic is con cerned, we have been trying all sea son to see that he, and the other players, got all the publicity credit due them. Realizing we had to .con centrate on one player as soon as possible after the season opened, we did this. Mr. Maronic has made one All-South team, and he may make others. He may make somebody's All American, or he may not. I don't know. I think you may rest assured, however, that in the majority of in (Continued on last page) 0AiLAM. n ' s j stw : i rvoo I ouuuieriL vuiuerexice iross iouniry inampiims xaao .. . j - . , . .. , .

Druggists FRAT, DORMITORY CHAMPS TO MEET FOR CAMPUS TITLE By RICHARD MORRIS Intramural touch football concludes its 1938 program when Zeta Psi, fra ternity champs, and Grimes, dormitory titlists, tangle for the campus title on Fetzer field tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock. Both teams advanced to the finals with undefeated records, un tied and unscored on, and these facts alone should account for one of the hardest fought and closest battles of intramural history. i The game will probably be featured by razzle-dazzle aerial attacks from both teams, as this has been their main offensive weapon throughout the season. The teams have completed schedules of practically the same cali bre with almost identical results. Zeta Psi, however, according to the statistics, appears to be a little the strongest offensively as they have scored 175 points in nine games, while Grimes has scored only 161 points in a like number of contests. Grimes makes up for its slight offense weak ness by having more defensive power than the fraternity team, and thus the two teams should go into the battle with an even rating. The fraternity team won its place in the campus finals by gaining a 5r2 first down victory over Phi Delta Theta, last year's campus titlists, in aplayoff ganlfe last Thursday. Ed Clark, Wilson, A. Carr, and Clements have been the main factors in the most successful intramural touch football season that Zeta Psi has ever had. Clark has been the sparkplug of the whole team. His work in the backfield has probably, been the best in the fraternity league this year. He has developed into an expert in passing and kicking, and his great de fensive work has been the Zete's greatest asset in keeping its goal line (Continued on last pagej Carolina's cross country squad won the Southern conference champion ship yesterday for the third straight year, topping Maryland, Davidson and Duke. .

BEERMAN ' Special to the Daily Tar Heel) DUKE STADIUM, Durham, Nov. 19. A defensive State college Wolf pack in bright red and white uniforms played very good football here this gloomy afternoon and made Duke uni versity look a little pushed in getting its one-touchdown victory. That was all though. Looks, like the well-known book cover, do not tell the story, and following the game Mr. Wallace Wade retired to his home and dreamed of dire things to confront Pittsburgh with come Saturday next. The great coach toyed and experimen ted all afternoon, using his second string players for a large 'portion of the game time. His dependable stand out, Eric (The Red) Tipton, enjoyed another fleeting hour of fame and bettered his chances of being a sure shot for All-Conference honors. He was the leading light in a field of shin ing satellites. Another gentleman, who did not play all the game, practically cinched himself for mythical honors of one sort or other. This chap, Ed (Ty) Coon, brutally assaulted the Duke backs with repetitious ease and at times made even the practically im penetrable Blue Devil line seem inef ficient. Con the flashy played with sleeves rolled up, Wojciechowicz style, and the tackles he managed to make were both spectacular and telling in effect. State rallied twice to threaten dan (Continued on last page) "Quiet Please An Announcement By The BULL'S HEAD Book Shop" 'Waii's Hope" (a novel of Revolutionary Spain) by Andre Malraux.

A touchdown and a field goal by a re serve back named Hofer brought No tre Dame closer to its goal of an un defeated season here this afternoon, as the Ramblers toppled Northwestern 9-7 before almost 50,000 paying spec tators. ' Hofer turned the complexion of the game midway in the second quarter by intercepting Soper's pass and dash ing down the sidelines 65-yards to a score to make the count 6-0. North western answered back with a touch down by McGura, and a conversion by Conteas that gave the Wildcats a 7-6 half-time lead. Hofer came in in .the third quarter xfrith both sides at an impasse. Notre Dame had gained six inches in three tries before Hofer rushed off the bench to kick a field goal from the 20-yard line. HARVARD JOLTS ELI -NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 19. Held scoreless for three periods, Har vard's potential power exploded with an 80-yard touchdown drive in the final period this afternoon to bring the Crimson a 7-0 win in the most classic of football rivalries played be--- (Continued on last page) STATE GOES DOWN FIGHTING BEFORE BLUE DEVILS, 7-0 By SHELLEY ROLFE (Special to the Daily Tar Heel) DUKE STADIUM, Durham, Nov. 19. With a defiant flip towards next Saturday's all important game with Pittsburgh, the Blue Devils of Duke remained this afternoon as the only major unbeaten, untied, and unscored on team in the country, t downing State 7-0 before 11,000 fas in the muggy dampness of quarter-filled Duke stadium. Eric the Red Tipton, mainspring of the Duke backfield, brought the only score across on a personally conducted 46-yard drive in the second period. The triumph, eighth of the season for the Wademen, clinched for the Dukes their fourth Southern conference championship in the past six years. STATISTICS DONT LIE Although held to one touchdown, the. Devils rolled up 13 first downs to four and gained 189 yards as against State's 86. State threatened to score three times, but each time the mag nificent Duke line, paced by hell bent for All-American Dan Hill at center, threw back the Wolfpack thrusts. Duke struck quickly in the dying minutes of the first half to whip across the only score of the game on three straight first downs in seven plays, everyone of them by Tipton. He started the march on the State 46, cutting back around right end for 12 yards to the Wolfpack 34 and a first down. Then a line buck and a pass play (Continued on last page) TERPS SECOND; DM RUNS ml TO NEW RECORD By LEONARD LOURED Two days ago Coach Dale Ran son told his Tar Heel harriers he expected them all to finish within the first 15, and yesterday, led by Captain Bill Hendrix, who eet a new conference and course record of 25:25.7, Carolina's cross country team did just that in winning the South ern conference crown again. Caro lina" scored 28 points, Maryland 58. Davidson 83, and Duke 102 points. The Tar Heels not only placed eight men among the first 15, but also five out of the first 10. For Carolina Bill Hendrix was first, Tom Crock ett, Dave Morrison, sixth, Jim Hall, eighth, Frank Wakeley, tenth, Clifton James, eleventh, Wimpy Lewis, twelfth, and Clarence Fink, fifteenth. It was Carolina's ninth conference crown, in 15 years and the third in a row. WEATHER BAD FOR RECORDS Although his chances for a record were lessened by the rain, Hendrix did what he planned using all his strength on the first four miles and coasting in the last mile. Hendrix ran the fh-st mile in 4:45 and at the end of four miles his time was sev eral seconds over 20 minutes and he held a 120 yard lead over Jim Ke hoe of Maryland, who was second at the finish. And running most of the way in heavy rain and on soft dirt, Hendrix broke Bill Morse's old con ference record of 25:34 by 8.3 sec- onds, Kehoe's second place time of ?6:14 .2 was not as good as his third place -performance last year. He was pushed all the way by Tom Crock ettj who was determined to beat Ke hoe. Crockett istayed on Kehoe's (Continued on last page) CAP'N CRICKETT Tom Crockett was unanimously chosen captain of next year's Caro lina cross country team following the Tar Heels' victory in the conference harrier run yesterday. Crockett went out for cross country last fall when, because of a Tab Heel. error he was nicknamed "Jintv Crickett.". In competition last spring, he set a Fetzer field record of 9:51 in the two mile run. His 26:32 in last . year's conference harrier meet is the -fourth fastest Carolina time qn rec ord. This year he tied for first . against Maryland in dual meets, and, took third yesterday in the confer- -ence run. Coach Dale Ranson was presented ' a silver pitcher from the squad.
