John Feuchtenberger fared . much better than his brother for he defeat ed Bill Croom in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2, to put the match into a 2-2 dead lock.

Netters Have Fine Record In Individual Match Play Netmen Win 146, Lose 13 Matches In Season's Play Individual losses on the University of North Carolina's crack, undefeated tennis team, were few and far between this spring. Winners of 17 consecutive dual con tests, the Tar Heels, individually speaking, had a phenomenal winning percentage of .918. The season rec ord showed 146 individual triumphs against only 13 losses. In . singles competition Coach John Kenfield's proteges won 104 matches and drop ped only seven. In doubles play they were victorious 42 times and beaten on only six occasions. Everett And Anthony Unbeaten Two of the Carolina regulars, No. 1- ranking Harris Everett and No. 3 Ham Anthony, went through the season without a loss in dual meets in singles. Each turned in 17 straight triumphs. Captain Zan Carver, No. 2 man in the lineup and Southern con ference singles champion, won 15 sin gles matches and was- defeated only once. The defeat was administered by Navy's Joe Hunt, who ranks No. 3 collegiately in the nation. The other three players on the No. 1 team, Chuck Harnden, Rinehart Freeman, and Frank Robinson, offer ed fine brands of tennis. Robinson won 10 singles matches in as many starts, while Harnden was credited with 12 victories against only one de feat. Freeman was beaten only twice in an even dozen matches. In doubles play the No. 2 duet of Anthony and Everett, North-South and Southern conference champions, was unbeaten in six matches.

The Tar Heels held scoreless, Yale, Cornell, Duke, George town, Williams, Haverford, Virginia, N. C. State and Wake Forest. - Kappa Sigma Stages Rally To Win, 4-3 By Richard Morris . Combing the offerings of Doc Sie wert for five hits in the last of the seventh, Kappa Sigma staged a four run uprising to down the Physical Educators, 4-3, in the final intra mural game of the season. Undefeated in the past two seasons, Kappa Sigma claimed its 20th con secutive victory by marking up the three-run defeat. Nick-Nack Austin opened the rally with a smashing single to left field. Sigler followed suit by lofting a bingle, and Lalanne came through with a base hit to load the bases. Bill Faircloth then scored Austin on an outfield fly, and Leo Leblanc doubled over second base to score Sigler and Lalanne. Wooten's single to right brought in Leblanc with the winning run. Physical Education had everything its way for the first six and a half innings and appeared headed for a surprise victory. Both Siewert and Hambright pitched superb ball but it .'just wasn't in the cards for the "Doc" to win. The Educators got to Ham bright for six hits, two by Andy Bershak, and one each "for Walter Rabb, Doc Siewert, Marv Allen and Pete Mullis. With the exception of the first' inning the losers played flaw less ball, turning in several spectac ular plays. Bo Shepard, Dick Jamer son, Marv Allen and George Radman were exceptionally good. Shepard opened the third inning by walking, went to second on a sac rifice" bunt by Mullis and scored the first run of the game when Rabb sin gled. In the fifth Physical Educa tion produced its other two tallies on hits by Siewert, Allen, and Mullis and a fielder's choice. The coaches threat ened again in the first half of the fi nal frame. Bershak singled, went to second on a wild pitch, to third on a fly and attempted to score on an in field out, but Bob Rose threw to Aus tin who in turn tossed to Sigler at the plate for the putout. Shortstop Cecil Wooten paced the winner's attack with a triple, double and a single in three attempts. The last hit drove in the winning run. For the first six innings Kappa Sigma got only four hits off Siewert, and Wooten and Edwards secured those. Tennis Summary -' Barnes (SAE) beat B. Feuchten berger (Phi Delt) 6-4, 6-2. J.

Milne, Hollander Sadlik, Rue, Banks Display Promise By Ben Snyder It's an athletic tradition that the June graduation blues come just as regularly to a coaching staff as they do to the departing seniors 1 them selves, and early in the spring it ap peared that the epidemic was destined to make, a premature appearance. The very mention of the word di ploma to any one of the track staff on Fetzer field would bring forth dour glances in the direction of Dave Mor rison, Johnny French, Billy Groves, or any other members of the class of '41 who happened to be working out at the time. The current freshman class was not expected to hold track and field competition back at the Uni versity, but it seemed quite likely that the frosh would make no sizeable con tribution to the Carolina varsity squads. The yearlings' season didn't open auspiciously on April 18, but in their 66-60 victory over the Duke frosh some hope for the future could be seen. On that occasion Jack Milne, John Sadlik, Bob Banks, George Eue and several, others made respectable showings and the prospects for 1942 began to brighten appreciably. It was on April 26 that the poten tialities of the club really came out of hiding. The Tar Babies on that date, annexed the Carolinas' Junior AAU title by grinding out 66 points over the Duke Blue Imps, who had 42 points for second place honors. Be hind the two leaders came the N. C. State freshmen, Belmont Abbey, the Wak.e Forest frosh, Salisbury high, Greenville high and Easly, S. C, high. It was satisfying to note that the point totals of those six aggregations were in their entirety seven markers below the number amassed by the locals. In the meet, Dick Hollander dis tinguished himself by winning' the half-mile, Jack Milne walked off with the two-mile title, Jack Ott won the broad jump and John Sadlik beat out Bob Gantt of Duke to win the discus with a fine throw of 127 feet 3 inches. Bill Reavis, Harris Davis, Jack Emack and Rue combined to take the 440-yard relay, tying the meet record of :44.7, while Jim Per rin, Frank Hardy, Tom Jewitt, Art Truxes, Paul Thompson, Marshall Parker, Bud Evans and Phil Edmonds added important points in the runner up positions. The climax meet for the freshmen, however, was not in intercollegiate or interscholastic competition. ' On May 2 and 3, in the annual interclass meet, they hit their peak. After getting off to a slow start on the opening day's events, the class of '44 suddenly pull ed out from behind the sophomores and the juniors to make the class race a real thriller. Sadlik, Ott, Paul Thompson, Rue and Hardy were all in great form as the first year club took event after event from the fav ored juniors. With one event emaining, the 220- yard dash, the score was tied at 55 points apiece for .the leading frosh and third year men. As luck would have it, no freshmen were entered in the event and consequently : the juniors took the race and the inter-class championship by five points. The se niors were in last place with 44 count ers. That cast a different light on the situation for next year, and from there on it was felt that the seniors' departure would be keenly- felt, but that it would not be an irreparable loss. The freshmen team went from there to the end of the season by com ing through with two dual meet vic tories. Duke was thumped very con vincingly at Durham, 75-51, and last Saturday the Babies kept their slate clean with a 59-41 victory over a team of carefully selected high school all- stars.

Jim Thorpe, the greatest all-round athlete, was sent to the minors be cause he couldn't hit curve balls. Hambright, Dill Chosen Pitchers On Mythical Club By Earle Hellen Kappa Sigma, fraternity champions for two years straight, dominated the annual all-fraternity team, selected by the intramural officials, this year by placing five men on the first team and three on the second outfit. This year's team possesses power at the plate, excellent pitching, and a fine crew of defensive players afield. The team compares favorably with the all-tar teams of previous years and can be ranked at the top of the list. Hambright And Dill Pitchers The selection of the pitchers was an easy job for the officials. Jim my Hambright of Kappa Sig and Tommy Dill of DKE received the nod over the other hurlers almost by unanimous vote. These two have per formed excellently the whole season and were, without a doubt, the two best in the fraternities. Hambright has not been defeated in .two years and has pitched every game the Kap pa Sigs have played during that time. This year he chalked up eight victories and ended his career by pitching the Kappa Sigs to victory over the strong Physical Education team yesterday. Tommy Dill, Hambright's mound mate, was the sensation of the intra murals this year. He pitched two no-hit, no-run games and won six games while losing one. In seven games Dill gave up 15 hits. The highest made off him in any game was four hits hits. The only game he lost was to Chi Phi, who secured only two hits. Buddy Wills, the hustling little catcher for Chi Phi, was chosen as the battery mate for Hambright and Dill. He was the sparkplug of the Chi Phi team which just missed getting into the finals. He had a batting mark of-.412. , Thorpe At First In the infield John Thorpe was given the nod over Bob Rose at first base. Thorpe, Zeta Psi star, finished the season with a batting average of .481 and this power at the plate gave him the advantage over Rose, the Kappa Sig -star. . Mac Edwarfis of Kappa Sig was placed at second base, winning by a wide margin over all opponents. At shortstop Bill Conley of Pi Kappa Alpha and Cecil Wooten of Kappa Sig waged a close battle with Conley coming out the victor in the final tabulation of votes. Conley was the spearhead of the See INTRAMURALS, Page i TRADE THAT DREAMBOOK for a check book Gibbs train ing turns timid B.A.'s into suave and esteemed secretaries.
