With the first two positions defi nitely going to senior epeeist Dick Preudenheim and John Finch, East ern intercollegiate champ, the epee team stacks up right well against any . mm . opposition. Either Hank Smernon or Stan Whyte will carry on in third place " for the first bout, alternating" through out the meet. SABRE Bloom and Lome Payne are two def inite sabre s'tarters, with the remain ing post a toss-up between Bob Tol mach, brilliant sophomore, and Wayne Williamson, senior veteran. Others slated for some cutting today are Ern est Stich, Fred Broad and Tom Vance. The Winston lads last year took the Carolina reserves into camp 8-7, fenc ing an all-foils meet. However, dur ing the" fall Shermer has whipped into shape a complete team ready to take on the best Carolina can offer. This is also the opener for the Twin City swordsmen, and they are all keyed up over maintaining an undefeated rec ord over the Tar Heels. WINSTON MEN Led by Coach Shermer and Carlyle Bogle, who each won two out of three here last winter, the Winston-Salem club nearly has an all-veteran team. Besides Shermer and Bogle, there are Julian Daye, Wilford Brown, Gordon Macklin, Josh Frazier and Cliff Jacob son. Staunchest of the newcomers to the Twin City club is Randy Reece, first string epeeist for Carolina team dur . ing the past two years. Irvin Cobb, and Paul Ernest are other new men. In its second year at Winston-Salem, , fencing has gained greatly in popular ity. This year the Winston club will engage a four meet schedule includ ing participation in the South Atlan tic tournament at Chapel Hill in April.

Since my lawsuit, they've made a law which says that half the money a minor earns in the movies must be put in a trust fund for him. Yes, my lawsuit has been settled. Nowadays kid actors are better trained. Each one gets in dividual treatment. On some you have to use boxing gloves and others need a clothes hanger across their fannies." FAVORITE Of all the pictures he has made, Coogan's favorite is "Johnny, Get Your liair Cut," made at the close of the silent era. He liked it because it dealt with horse racing and he en joyed riding. When he entered college at Santa Clara, he quit the movies temporarily, became a cheerleader and got himself injured in football. He transferred to the University of South em California and graduated as an English history major. His last Hol lywood picture was "The Sky Patrol." Coogan's chief hobby is flying. He has his own plane in California and while on tour sometimes rents one just to spin ardund. in a while. He had hoped to fly over Chapel Hill yesterday but the weather was too bad. TOUR HISTORY Coogan has been touring "What A Life" for. 14 weeks and plans include an additional 10 or 12 weeks of one night stands. Though he has appeared in vaudeville for the past eight years, this is his first legitimate play. After the tour is over, he intends to vaca tion in Miami and then appear; in a Broadway play next fall." The company gave a show night be fore last at the Woman's college in Greensboro, and Coogan raved about the attractions of the women students he saw there, particularly one who was an usher and who roamed around the campus all night with a member of the cast. He called the girls "sharp." That day he had lunch with Jim La lanne whose football ability he praised highly and said he hoped Santa Clara would play some southern colleges next year. While in his dressing room Coogan was cussing out the bus driver who transported the cast from Durham to Chapel Hill last night at breakneck speed. "Where the hell did that of a think he was going? I'll have to enter him in Indianapolis next sum mer." Phantoms-Deacons (Continued from page three) is also gone. The Deacons are built around three lettermen, Bill Sweel, Vince Convery and H. O. Barnes. Sweel and Convery are guards, Barnes a forward. They've been beaten once this year, taking it on the chin from Clemson Wednesday night when Bonnie Banks McFadden made his first cage appearance of the year. To balance that, Wake Forest has triumphs over Washington and Lee, South Carolina and Furman. Realizing that the Deacons, even without Waller and Owen, will be as dangerous a team as the Phantoms will be called on to face all year, Lange put Carolina to work yesterday. He believes a good practice is the best way to get a team in shape. The Phan toms had a good one yesterday. Lange kept digging up intramural teams to pit against the varsity. And the var sity went to work, trying new plays or attempting to improve the old ones. Intramurals (Continued from page three) Ruff in No. 2. Both men counted 18 points apiece.

A RINGER EVERY TIME YITH THE DAILY TAR HEEL CLASSIFIED jBa Coed Fencers Lack material For Strong Team After an initial and successive year in intercollegiate competition, women's fencing has been relegated to merely a physical education sport this winter. The main reason has been the lack of prospects for a successful team and that's enough to turn back any attempts towards a winning outfit. Last year, led bya bevy of coed in terest, particularly Captain Adele Austin, a novelty was introduced to the campus when a women's fencing team was organized, producing the first organized intercollegiate coed team ever at the University. Along with Miss Austin on the team were Mary Lewis, Jean Breck inridge, Frances Caldwell, Ruth Par sons and others. The women, under the tutelage of Varsity Captain Allan Bloom, underwent a seven-meet inter collegiate schedule, taking four of their meets. LAST SPRING TOUR During spring vacation, the swords men spent a week fencing five of the leading northern fencing teams, de feating Pennsylvania, Panzer and Long Island university, while losing to Maryland and a triangular meet to New York university and Brooklyn. After a slow fall, the coeds again took up the sport this past week, but learned that three of the coeds count ed on as stalwarts of the team were unable to come out Mary Lewis, Jean Breckenridge, and Frances Caldwell leaving only Jo Jones and Rose Knight, plus the fall students to form a team. With only one match scheduled, and that with the national champions NYU here and the team definitely weak, it was decided at a council meeting to stop the sport as a sepa rate intercollegiate activity and just conduct classes for beginners and those interested in fencing. OUTSIDE COMPETITION? Although it is possible that infor mal meets might be arranged with nearby schools, it is doubtful whether there will be any outside competition in coed fencing this year. There are no women's teams in this state at present, while the nearest opponent is at the College of William and Mary at Williamsburg, Va., and, also, the Uni versity of Maryland. From there up, teams are more numerous. Coached by Varsity Business Man ager Jerry Stoff, a small class of coeds meets twice weekly in the Tin Can, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 o'clock to 5 o'clock. The class will be open to new fencers all this week, after which time no new, fencers will be allowed to join since those already in attendance will begin working on the higher fundamentals of the sport. Miss Knight is coed manager of fenc ing. . But prospects for continued fencing are far from dead. It is rumored that Miss Austin will return to school next year, and she is expected to continue the sport, possibly returning it to in tercollegiate competition. But at present, all coeds interested are invited to the classes. It's open to anyone. Nation's Collegians (Continued from first page) proval everywhere, with these varia tions: 1. Although a good majority are in favor in every section of the country, the largest number of dissenters one-fifth in each case was found in the East Central and West Central states. - 2. Only 4 per cent more women than men are opposed to the ROTC. 3. Military training is most popu lar in schools where it is voluntary, least where it is not taught at all. 4. Of students who approve, well over half believe it should be volun tary only. The national tabulations are as fol lows: Students: Men Women Both Approving ... 87 83 86 Disapproving 13 17 14 Of those approving, these specify: It' should be compulsory 13 It should be compulsory 29 Did not specify ; . ..'...59 These approve: In schools where it is voluntary ....96 In schools where it is compulsory 92 In schools where it is not taught 82 It should be noted that this poll was taken after war broke out. Surveys figures show that since the start of hostilities abroad there has been a marked increase of approval of all matters that have to do with national defense. Send the Daily Tar Heel home. State Becrins Remedial Instruction In English For Deficient Frosh The English department of State college began with this term a radi cal departure from precedent by ini tiating a "remedial" program for freshmen found deficient in English. Dr. .Lodwick C. Hartley', acting chairman of the English department, says that the program was deemed necessary because of the very high percentage of freshmen entering col lege each year without adequate train ing in the fundamentals of reading and writing. This deficiency, he said, is not confined to students coming from any particular class of high schools, but appears to exist about evenly all over North Carolina. He announced that all freshmen term have " been placed in special classes designed to give them train ing in the fundamentals of writing and reading. "Our work,'1 commented Dr. Hart ley, "is now in an experimental stage. We should not like to predict the out come, but we believe we are moving in the right direction." Classes for the deficient freshmen meet on the regular college schedule of three, hours a week. ,The class periods are devoted to problems in composition and reading. A-fourth hour is devoted to laboratory work consisting of writing under the im mediate supervision, of the instructor. t Infirmary Annex (Continued from first page) edV Yesterday nine patients were dis tributed in the three examination rooms, the lamp room, and the upstairs hall. . The nursing staff has .been more than doubled, and both doctors and nurses have been working overtime. And still the stream of ailing shows no sign of slacking. Dr. Berryhill doesn't attribute the increased number of colds to the pres ent weather. "There is a peak of res piratory diseases every year in Jan uary and February. There has been an increased number in almost every community this winter, even where the weather has not been sereve."

This Collegiate World (By Associated Collegiate Press) Indiana University students are jit tery these days: There's a local fire man who is seen frequently in student meeting places who looks exactly like the university president, Herman B. Wells and his appearance causes no end of consternation. But the fire man's a thoughtful guy, though, and if you dont believe it, listen to this:lheaded by Vera R director J "I walk across the campus quite often and always try to be friendly, because I wouldn't want to damage President Wells' reputation for friendliness." We don't go in for exam boners very often, but this one from a Hillsdale Col lege quiz contains more truth than boner: "A moron is a person with several husbands or wives, an insane sort of an individual." Big business has at last invaded the realm of collegiate party-throwing. A University of Detroit student has or ganized "Parties, Inc." and the new firm will guarantee the success of any social function from, a hayride to a wedding. But the company wisely will have nothing to do with your escort for the evening. YouH have to take care of that little matter without the firm's expert advice!
