Team contests are all very inter esting, but it's man to man conflict that causes the customers to fight their way to the box office for the privilege of laying money down and for the added honor of spending a pleasant evening sitting on back- less-uncomiortaDie seats. conse quently while everyone will have an academic interest in the Maryland-Carolina-Duke-W&L-W&M, et al, conference title race, the chances are the mile will bring out more citizens than all the relays, sprints, et al, combined. Seems as if there is an honest-to-goodness rivalry between two men in the mile. Nothing like the Cunning-ham-Fenske-San Romani business, understand, but very warm just the same. Jimmy Davis of the Tar Heels and Mason Chronister of Maryland have been running against each other ever since their first indoor meet their sophomore year in 1938. The rivalry has been blown up by artful words until now it is the biggest thing in southern track history.- - ; .-. Davis and Chronister have run against each other five times their college careers and Li'l Mason has beaten Davis exactly once last winter. That was a cute mile they had too, everyone ran an extra lap and no one ever figured out what happened. Dale Ranson, of the local track masterminding department, is still looking for the guy who couldn't count laps and any mention around Mr. Ranson of the race is a cute way to invite disaster and a firing squad. . Chronister took the lead toward the end. Davis looked like he was holding back. Jim was probably waiting for a bell lap finish. The only trouble was that the bell lap came when the race should have been over and the boys were supposed to be trotting around in their sweat suits, smiling for the photographers and perhaps wishing for a nice cool bottle of suds. There was much consternation at the muddled bookkeeping. The Weils of Goldsboro, Davis' home town, had gone to the trouble of putting up a cup. What could be more fitting than to have a local boy win ? He could carry the cup back to Goldsboro, and per haps even exhibit it at some local hock shoppe. Chronister won and Mason is from Baltimore which is a long way from Goldsboro. It was all very dis tressing. Jimmy gave Mason his lumps in the outdoor mile at Fetzer field. Jim, turning in one of the best col lege miles of the year, took first in 4:112 and was immediately marked as a gentleman to be remembered when it came time to pick Olympic teams.

C, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1940 The University Of Maryland Running Crew Five Champions 'P- ..i . v 1 r j "I 4 J The University of Maryland has long been famed for its distance runners. Five of them won individual champion ships last year in the Southern Conference Indoor games a nd four of these combined to form the winning one-mile relay team which gave the Terrapins 30 points, their total score. These five men are pictured above in the usual order: Joe Murphey, 60-yard dash; Alan Miller, 440; Jim Kehoe, 880; Mason Chronister, mile; and Tommy Fields, two-mile. All are back to run in the games in Woollen gym February 24. Matiinen Come Close To Victory Over Generals; Frosh Also Bow By FRANK GOLDSMITH Carolina's surprising wrestling crew yesterday put on one of the fin est exhibitions of fighting seen around Chapel Hill in many a year, and in the process almost pulled the upset for which Coach Quinlan has been wait ing for eight years. But a rugged, experienced Washington and Lee con tingent eked out an 18-12 victory on two falls to remain dominators of the conference. In the preliminary fresh man afair, the Tar 3aby grapplers dropped a 19- 13 decision to the Little Generals. Pressing the highly favored Gen erals throughout the afternoon, the Carolina matmen took four out of eight battles, but Washington and Lee's fall wins in the 136, 165, and 175 contests told the story of defeat for the Tar Heels. Getting revenge for the defeat last winter, the W&L frosh had matters pretty much in their own hands, and sewed up the Tar Babies' winning streak with de cision wins in the 175, and unlimited affairs. Carolina Gene Devant's 121-pound victory over Jim Hammett of the Gen erals proved to be the feature bout of the afternoon.

The meet this year will be held here in Woollen gym on February 24. And that story is again true this year. At least, Maryland has the run ners. The Terrapins have five of the best trackmen in the south, all of whom won first places in the 1939 conference indoor meet in running events from the 60-yard dash through the two mile run. Leading the Terps is Jim Kehoe, one of the ranking middle distance men in the south and east. Kehoe won the 880 in last year's meet, setting a new record of 1:56.8, and ran a leg on the one mile relay team, which also set a new conference indoor record of 3:29.3. In his best shape ever, Kehoe has been blazing the boards in the early winter meets, and has turned in (Continued on page 4, column 3) CAGE OUTCOME DEPENDS AGAIN ON TWO CENTERS Bonnie Banks McFadden, the most magnificient" piece of basketball flesh in the Southern conference who has not exhibited his muscles in Chapel Hill since his sophomore year when The Carolina freshman basketball team, leaders in the state freshman race, play Campbell college tomor row night at 7 o'clock as prelim inary to the Phantom-CIemson game. he was first acquiring a reputation, comes into Woollen gym tomorrow night at 8:30 to lead Clemson against (Continued on page 4, column 4) Clemson Numbers Here are the Clemson numbers.

STONE BROTHERS WIN THREE RACES, SET TWO RECORDS By LEONARD LOBRED Carolina's varsity mermen gained at least a tie for first place in the Southern conference season standings when they defeated Washington and Lee, 40-35, here yesterday with a group of second stringers accounting for a good share of the Tar Heel points. Although they didn't mathematical ly cinch the meet until the next-to-the-last race, the Tar Heels stayed at a comfortable distance in front of the W and L lads, who until yesterday had split two conference engagements. Car olina took an early lead and coasted through the closing events taking" sec onds and thirds while the visitors won the firsts. Carolina took only four individual first places, one by George Coxhead iii the diving, two by Billy Stone and another by Fleming Stone. Coxhead captured his fourth first in six meets while outscoring two W and L divers Billy Stone, with his two first places, one of which was a new school record, was high scorer, hitting the speed he showed all last winter and in early season meets this year. Billy went out in front in the 200 to win in 2:33.3 over Shultz of W and L, former Ohio interscholastic champion, and '' team mate George Meyer, a converted back stroker. He came back later to beat Shultz again, this time with a long lead. His time of 5:44.8 bettered the Carolina record by 6.4 seconds. Tom McQuade was third. Fleming Stone set the second new Carolina record when he beat Farber of W and L in the 100 in the time of 1:03.1, an improvement of .7 second on the old mark. Fleming had lost to Farber in the 50 and unofficially bet tered the University record in that event. Buzz Mitchell and Bill Peters) got third places in the 50 and 100. After the medley relay team of Lou Scheinman, Murray Drucker and Whit Lees, and the Stone brothers and Cox head had put the Tar Heels out in front, Coach Jamerson inserted his second stringers in the line-up, and they didn't fare so badly either. Thompson took the backstroke for W and L, and Lamar Gudger and Herb Langsman pulled into second and third positions. Warner won the breastr stroke, and Noel Woodhouse and Ben Lee were second and third there. Then Billy Stone turned in his record-setting race in the 400, and the meet was won. Washington and Lee won the free style relay, the final event, over a Tar Heel team of Haw ley Funke, Billy Thompson, Otho Ross and Ed Mueller, a combination of sprinters, distance men and breast-strokers. Leading Scorer -YY I-.'-- I j Fleming Stone has led the Carolina swimming team to victories in six of its seven meets. High scorer on the team with 60 points, Fleming won the 100-meter free style sprint yesterday from Farber of W&L and established a new Carolina record of 1:03.1. His second in the 50 and Brother Billy's two firsts netted the Tar Heels 18 points. SABREMEN ,GIVE FENCERS MARGIN OVER HOPKINS BALTIMORE, Md., Feb. 17 In as close and tense a meet as this fine old university will probably ever witness, the University of North Carolina fenc ing team outfought and bitterly at that a game Johns Hopkins outfit, 15-12. It was a three-hour, meet that was a toss-up until the third from the last bout of the sabre meet, when the lar Heel sabremen proved just an iota better than the Jays and that fraction of a difference in the slashing technique meant a win for the visitors. This afternoon it was Dave Ma lone's day as far as the records are concerned for he adroitly went unde feated in foils to contribute greatly to the Carolina 5-4 win in foils, a sur prising but most satisfactory result But it was Co-Captain Allan Bloom who brought home the bacon, so to speak, as he cinched the meet for the Tar Heels in the twenty-fifth bout of the contest, when he defeated the Hop kins captain, Al Agrin, a second string sabreist, 5-2. But Agrin ac quitted himself well when he led his epee team to a most shocking and up setting 6-3 epee decision by going through undefeated in that weapon.' Along with Bloom, Larry Payne also (Continued on page U, column 5) jmj iuhmiiHTh nrmiT Ti Bonnie Banks McFadden, left, was highly amazed recently at Durham. Duke beat Clemson, point one. A tall dark gentleman CAME UP to him and started talking basketball. Banks recognized the fellow faintly and began asking about George Glamack. The tall dark gentleman was George Glamack, right. How'd you guess it? Well, McFadden had an opportunity to find out about Glamack. Carolina beat Clemson earlier in the month at Clemson, Glamack made 17 points, McFadden only had 12. The two meet up again tomorrow night. It will be the same old story. The game depend ing on the two ... Can Glamack outwit and outplay the faster, better floor man again?
