Meanwhile Richard "Fish" Worley, en tertainment chairman and director of Graham Memorial, rounded-out a schedule of soldier-student programs for the two-day holiday. Work in Progress Already steps have been taken to convert dormitory basements into sleeping quarters for the armed ser vices, and rumors persist that, in case of immediate need, the Tin Can might be used to house the uniformed guests. Although much slack in the room problem has been taken up, Comer urged all "students who expect to leave for the week-end to register their va cant rooms at the YMCA this morn ing, or in Graham Memorial's Horace Williams Lounge this afternoon.

Informed by J ones, before the efforts had been expended that the Carolina Wake Forest Now Favored To Win Tilt Baptists Boast Mighty Offense Ready for Game By Harry Hollingsworth Labeled by state sports editors as a team which has gone so far this season on spirit alone and nothing else, the Carolina foot ball team plays an in-and-out Wake Forest team this after noon in Wake Forest in its sixth game of the season and its. third conference battle. Kickoff is at 2 o'clock. Today is the day for Carol ina's crucial comeback effort af ter the disastrous 52-6 licking by Tulane last week-end, and for that comeback effort the Deacons have a team which has displayed a mighty offensive power all season something which the Tar Heels at times have lacked. Deacons Favored For the first time since the early 20's, Carolina is not the favored team in the Deac-Tar Heel battle. Wake Forest, on the basis of its power dis played, rates with the bookies from two to six points better than the Tar Heels. Few people are expecting Caro lina to rally enough from last week's defeat to hand the Deacs their second setback of the season. Duke licked Wake Forest in the Devils' first game of the season, but even in defeat the Baptists were able to score two touch downs and kick both extra points for 14 markers. Impressive Record Against South Carolina, victors over the Tar Heels 13-7, Wake Forest hit an off day and was limited to a 6-6 tie. In all their games, however, the Deacons have been impressive, and word from their camp all week has been that they were ready to "shoot the works" against Ray Wolf's Tar Heels. . Wake Forest comes into the game with all of its players in top-notch shape. Carolina, though, will be with out Joe Austin and Jack Hussey. Aus tin was a starter when an injured shoulder forced him out. Hussey was 200-pound substitute end who was slated to see much action.
