TUESDAY,
Not to
Mince Matters
By Harry Hollingsworth
With nothing else to do (you know,
with exams coming Tar Heel men
have nothing to do) we stopped by the
coed field yesterday afternoon to watch
our first game of coed Softball this
season.
The game was quite interesting, at
times, what with the pitchers hitting
home runs and the outfielders fan
ning and umpires calling plays they
didn't see. .
We envy the men in K dorm.
They get a box seat at all the games,
and as each girl came to bat yester
day the K residents, pulling for one
side or another, would pass remarks
about the hitting and fielding abil
ity of the girls.
Mary McCormic, the winning
pitcher, received the biggest build
ep of the hitters, but Ditty Kelly,
playing shortstop, was the fielding
sensation.
Shortly before the game started,
Dick Jamerson, looking from the win
dow of his office in Woollen gymna
sium, remarked that her throwing arm
was much better than many men's on
the campus. .
Judging from the amount of fuss the
coeds made, they either don't take
their baseball very" seriously or they
just don't believe in arguing with the
umpire. Even when an umpire called
a play she didn't see, the girls accepted
it in good grace and kept their
thoughts to themselves.
Gathering Bits
Charlie Rich, third baseman and
leading hitter for the Tar Heels this
season, refused a contract with a
Class C Virginia team last week.
... Harry Montgomery, winner of
the Patterson award in 1936 and one
of Carolina's football greats, stop
ped by the gymnasium yesterday.
... Since it was the first time we
had ever seen the. former gridiron
star, we were quite surprised to see
such a small man. . . . In checking
through the records in the Athletic
office yesterday for three-sport men,
we astonished at the number of two
sport men Carolina has had. ...
Three-sport men are almost a rarity.

Frosh Netmen
Rack Up Seven
Wins for Year
t
By Mannie Krulwich
s Winning seven meets and losing
two, the Carolina frosh tennis team
recently completed its 1941 season.
Marshall Chambers, Harold Maass
and Barden Winstead, No. 1, 2 and 3
singles players during the entire year,
played consistently well and appeared
to be the principal men developed by
the team.
Two Defeats
Charlotte high school and Scar
borough Prep gave the Tar Babies
their only defeats of the season. Car
olina defeated Charlotte in a second
meeting between the two clubs, 5-2.
In the opening meet of the season
Charlotte gained its victory over the
Tar Baby team, 5-4. In all fairness
to the team, however, it should be
said that when Scarborough defeated
it, Chambers and Maass were playing
in the North-South at Pinehurst, and
were unable to be in Chapel Hill for
the meet. Scarborough won, 9-0.
Sinks Peddie
Following its defeat in the' first
match of the season by Charltte high,
the team gained its first victory of the
year by whipping Peddie prep, 6-3.
The Blue Imps fell twice during the
year to the Tar Babies, 8-1 the first
time and 7-2 the second time. In the
first Duke meet Milton Cash, Mark
Griffin, Shelton Coons and Fred Rut
ledge were regulars in the lineups and
were turning in some well-played sets.
Flashy Finish
Defeating State twice, 7-2 and 9-0,
and Winston Salem high school, 6-3,
the frosh closed their season with
three impressive wins.
- Two matches, one with Washing
ton and Lee frosh and the second
with State frosh, were rained out dur
ing the season.
Giving every man on the team an
opportunity to play, Coach John Ken
field used every freshman who re
ported and stayed out in at least one
match.

If the results of the first University-sponsored

held at Woollen gym Friday and Sat-

I come in future years, then it seems
apparent that the affair will become
an annual fixture.
True, each and every scholastic
track star tendered an invitation
didn't rush to the Hill in the fall, but
a sufficient number of the school
boys, eager and hopeful to learn the
finer points of the cinder sport, came
up tv the University to merit the rep
etition of the event next season.
The two day conference, which drew
some 20 athletes from eight state high
schools, proved to be a success not
only from a good-will standpoint, but
also from a competitive point. The

Bobbitt's Achievements in Sports
Is Best Record Here Since 1934
Winner of Letters f
In Football, Boxing,
Baseball This Year
By Harry Hollingsworth
The second name among the men re
ceiving monograms for baseball in
last Saturday's paper was M. E. Bob
bitt, known among his friends as Mike
and listed in the student directory as
Mike E. Bobbitt, 4, M., Greensboro.
That letter was . Mike's third mono
gram this year in a major sport, hay
ing already received letters in foot
ball in the fall and boxing in the win
ter. .
By receiving the letter in baseball
Mike became the fourth Carolina ath
lete in recent history to get three let
ters in the same year in major sports.
Stewart Chandler, '33, received let
ters in football, basketball and .track,
and George Brandt, .'34, received let
ters in football, basketball and base
ball. Back in 1921, '22, '23, '24 Monk Mc
Donald, probably the greatest athlete
Carolina has ever had, was awarded
letters in football, baseball and bas
ketball for four consecutive years.
The Southern conference had not been
formed then and men were able' to
compete for more than three years in
sports. , . '
First Diamond Letter J
Other than his three letters which
he received this year, Mike has other
letter in football and one more in box
ing. iis baseball letter was tne nrst
he has received in the diamond sport.
Because he was injured in pre
season practice last year, Mike was
unable to compete in baseball and,
therefore, has another year of eligi
bility, but doesn't think he will be back
next spring to play.
Overnight Star
'Having played only football and
baseball before coming to Carolina, he
was induced by Coach Ronman of the
boxing team to come out for the ring
sport, and his success was practically
overnight. He responded to Ronman's
coachine and developed into a first-
earn man in his first year.
Although he played three years of
botball, his junior year was his best
season on the gridiron. .At the block
ingback post in the backfield, which
contained at one time or another
George Stirnweiss, Jim Lalanne, Har
ry Dunkle, Sid Sadoff and George
Radman, Mike was a consistent perT
former in all the games.

Ray Wolfe, coach of the team, shift
ed Mike to end last season when he
was unable to work into the single
wingback formation Wolf planned for
the team.

meet, held Saturday afternoon at Fet
zer field, matched the visitors against
the undefeated Tar Heel frosh, and
was a revelation on several counts.
Primarily, it showed how far high
school track has come in North Car
olina during the past several years
and. secondarily, it indicates that the
annual state championship meet, held
here each year in April, is staged
much too early in the season.
For example, there is the exception
al case of Fayetteville's Bill Yancy
who won both the shot and discus
events in the early spring meet.
Yancy put the shot 44 feet 3 inches
on that occasion and threw the discus
112 feet 5 inches. Here Saturday he
heaved the iron ball a good 48 feet
1134 inches and went to 121 feet
6 inches in the discus. Then there
are Salisbury's Julian McKenzie who
bettered his April mark in the mile by
five - tenths of a second, and Greens
boro's Frazier who clipped four-tenths
of a second from his winning time in
the 200-yard low hurdles.
