Defense Heads To Meet Here This Week Prof essor Coates Releases Complete Conference Details Famous Trumpeter Spivak, noted as the "Sweetest Trumpet Player in the World," gain ed his fame as an orchestra leader dur ing an engagement in Westchester county's cradle of bands, Glen Island Casino. Rising rapidly in the public eye, Spivak quickly developed an in dividual style .that clung to his name throughout the country. Prophets to day are quick to predict great things for thp Snivak outfit in the near future. "We consider ourselves very fortu nate to have been able to obtain such an rmtfiinrhnf- vountr orchestra for the midwinter set," said Diffendal last week. a splendid scrap out of it in the first half. Lange's crew was steamrollered in the final period as had been most Duke opposition before it, and try as they might the Bantams were no match for the Dooks. Duke Bombardiers There was no single factor contri buting to the Carolina defeat unless it could be the Devil bombardiers themselves. True, the Phantom de f ense did split wide open as never be fore. The home club made a tragic mistake in failing to pick up loose men on the end of the fast breaking Duke plays. Once a Duke man was alone on the floor for the briefest part of a second, bang! It was another double dose of trouble for Carolina. In addition, the Tar Heels relinquished control over jump balls. On few oc casions during the entire game did the Carolinians come up with the ball af ter a pair of opposing players had See BASKETBALL, page U Local officials and defense chairmen throughout North Carolina will hold a series of district meetings next week to discuss war-time emergency prob lems of countries, cities and towns.

By Walter Klein The University tomorrow will strike out to fulfill a $1,000 emer gency Red Cross-World Student I Service goal by means of a special campus organization under co directorship of Jean Hahn and Hundley Gover. A staff of more than a score of students now being assembled will go into action immediately, arranging for the quota's fulfillment by means of personal solicitation and pledge cards. Designated as entirely separate from annual Red Cross roll calls, USO cam paigns or similar drives, the local, stu dent effort is a University war-time measure arranged for financial and material aid to American soldiers, cit izens and students throughout the world's battle-torn war theaters. At sessions Friday and yesterday YMCA officials, led by director Harry Comer, and a small group of student leaders formulated concrete plans for the emergency drive.
