McNutt Cancels Engagement
To Speak Here On CPU Bill
Union Opens Drive
To Obtain Dewey
For Spring Speech
Paul V. McNutt, Federal Security
administrator, yesterday wired Harry
Gatton, chairman of the Carolina Polit
ical union, that, due to unf orseen duties
in Washington, he would be unable to
keep his scheduled appearance on the
union's platform here April 2.
The cancellation of the McNutt ad
dress left the CPU with a spring quar
ter slate of speakers that includes New
Hampshire's New Deal-blasting Styles
Bridges- on March 26, Rochester pub
lisher Frank Gannett on -either April
11 or 16, and Missouri's crime-busting
governor Lloyd' C. Stark in May. A
drive is how also underway to secure
New York's mob-smasher Thomas E.
Dewey for an appearance here also in
May.
Mentioned prominently for the Dem
ocratic nomination for the presidency
last fall, handsome, white-haired Mc
Nutt has received several sharp re
verses from both the conservative and
liberal forces within the party. The
most telling blow to' the former In
diana governor's chances for the nomi
nation next July was the flaying Sec
retary of the Interior Harold Ickies
gave him two months ago. Since then,
political observers have predicted a
continued falling off in popularity for
the bronzed Federal Security adminis
trator. Taking over the number one spot
behind the President in the race for the
Democratic nomination is Burton K.
Wheeler, who last week unofficially
received the backing of the CIO and
John Lewis. The Montana senator, who

MERMEN ROLL UP
60 POINTS, SET
SCORING RECORD
Fleming Stone Gets
'Most Valuable' Cup
For Double Victory
By LEONARD LOBRED
From creation to the zenith in two
years! That briefly describes the rise
in two seasons of Carolina's varsity
swimming team from next-to-last to
first place in the. Southern conference.
The Tar Heel mermen yesterday es
tablished an all-time scoring record of
60 points while winning the tenth an
nual conference championship meet.
Duke was second with 34 points. Clem
son had 27, State 17, William and Mary
13, Washington and Lee 12, and VMI
nine.
Tutored since swimming was inaug
urated here last winter by Coach Dick
Jamerson, who swam only once in his
life, in a competitive swimming race,
the Carolina mermen blanketed the
rest of the field so completely that after
the first event there was little, doubt
that they would win.
While all of the times went in the
books as conference records for a 50
meter course, pool records in three
events were lowered, the first by Flem
ing Stone of Carolina in the 100-meter
sprint, another by Sid Ingram of State
in the backstroke, and a third by Car
olina's free style relay team of Buzz
Mitchell. Whit Lees. Ed Mueller and
Fleming Stone.
Winners of only two of six meets
last year and seventh in the confer
ence out of eight starters, the Tar
Heels acocmplished the almost un
heard-of feat of winning the champion
ship in their second year and in doing
so added to their honor by becoming

was never in the
game, 39-23, t to

championship. It
was the first Phan

W&L in the finals and the third since
the Southern conference split up and
the" tournament was moved to Raleigh
in 1933.
George Glamack pitched the Phan
toms to triumph in the final game of
the season and tournament just as be
had done in every battle leading up to
this big one during the tourney and
the regular season. The man who has
captivated the crowds as few cage per
formers in past tournaments, pitched
in 18-points and there' was "nothing
Duke could do to stop this machine who
keeps making marker after marker,
game after game. Eddie Cameron, see
ing the championship fleeting away be
fore his eyes, tried Chuck Holley on
George ; he used Clyde Allen and still
there was no way of halting Glamack.
Coach Bill Lange of the Phantoms
