Not to
Mince Matters
By Harry Boilings worth
A neatly-lettered sign bearing seven
suggestions in which the Blue Dolphins
could prepare themselves for defeat
ing the University of Florida swim
ming team with the words "cancelled
at the request of Florida "written
across it was the only sign at the
swimming pool yesterday afternoon
about how the swimmers felt.
But one could be sure that in each
heart of every member of the varsity
team there was an ache an ache of
disappointment at not being able to
swim the 'Gators this year.
"When a group of men lite those
swimmers look forward for six
months or more to a certain meet
and then have all their hopes dash
ed to bits in one short minute,
there's bound to be some disappoint
ed feelings.
Coach Jamerson told me in his
office before he left to go to the
pool that announcing the cancella
tion to the team was one of the
hardest things he had to do since he
came to the University four years
ago. To me, it was also disappoint
ing, for I had kinda shared the
team's enthusiasm and had looked
forward to seeing the Dolphins, gain
revenge for a defeat suffered two
years ago.
It's almost a calamity to have a
team like the Carolina squad and not
get a good, strong schedule arranged
for it. Scores of all the meets this sea
son have clearly demonstrated that
Carolina is out of the class of practi
cally every team in the Southern con
ference. Duke, whom 4he Tar Heels
haven't met in a dual meet yet, is the
only team in the loop which has even
an outside chance of licking .Carolina.
And I feel that chance isn't much.
All the Dolphins have to swim
against is a record book. And that's
not a very exciting way in which to
swim a meet. Swimming is one of the
most competitive, as far as individuals
are concerned, of any sport except
track, which ranks on an equal basis.
Even though the Tar Heels have
had only one or two real good, close
competitive races all season, they've
been doing a swell job of swimming
against the record books as can be
attested by the number of nationally-recognized
records which have
fallen to Carolina swimmers.
But that still doesn't take away
the sting of not being able to swim
Florida this year.

Lose Big Chance
To Gain Revenge
By Harry Hollingsworth
The hopes of the varsity swimming
team, for the past six months crashed
and drowned in Bowman Gray pool yes
terday afternoon when Coach Dick
Jamerson announced that the Univer
sity of Florida has requested that its
meet with the Blue Dolphins February
26 be cancelled.
Florida, the only team in the South
to bear the distinction of beating the
Dolphins and not being defeated m a
return meet, wrote that since the Uni
versity of Florida athletic officials had
decided to curtail some spring athletic
contests because of the world condi
tions, it thought best that the meet be
called jiff. It was assumed that sche
duled meets which Florida had with
State, Duke, and Virginia were also
cancelled.
First Meet in Two Years
This was the first meet the Dolphins
had scheduled with Florida since the
'Gators gained" a 52-23 victory over
Carolina two years ago. And members
of the swimming team had been looking
forward since last September to meet
ing the 'Gator tank team again.
According to all scores of meets and
individual performances, Card 1 i n a
would have been a slight favorite in the
contest. No doubt one of the strongest
teams in the south, the Blue Dolphins
will continue measuring their perform
ances against the record books rather
than in dual meets with teams of the
same calibre.
Three More Tests
Only three moretests remain for the
Tar Heels this season and unless some
thing happens to about half the team
the Dolphins should have little trouble
in dominating the proceedings. They
swim Washington and Lee here Satur
day, Duke at a still undecided place
March 3 and finish the season with the

Over Last Meet
Jumping off to an early lead for the
second consecutive time this month in
an indoor interclass meet, the senior
class led by Mike Wise, Warren Men
gel and Dick White scored 28 one-half
points in the opening day of the indoor
meet held in the Tin Can yesterday.
The seniors were followed in second
place by the juniors with 16 one-half
points, the frosh in third with 12 and
once again the hapless sophs got off to
a slow start with a total of three points.
As was anticipated by the coaches,
performances in this second meet ex

held two weeks ago. Rich Van Wagon

Little is known of the strength of

likely that the frosh can win handily
tonight. The Little Wonders are coach

rank high in the South Piedmont con

The greatest basketball team ever to set foot on Carolina hard

day replete with fanfare, ten former collegiate captains, a national
record holder in scoring and the unmatchable George Glamack.

University's Blind Bomber. The Johns
town giant is the prima donna of this
evening's affair and, as far as the
student body is concerned, this is his
show.
The Carolina varsity five doesn't
share the consensus of opinion. To be
certain they, too, hope to provide a
warm reception for George and his new
teammates, but in an entirely different
sense. Believing themselves to be on
the road to success in these last weeks
of the conference race, following a
smashing 62-26 win over Washington
and Lee last Friday night, the Tar
Heels will be in there for all they are
worth. If sheer scrap, morale and spirit
can beat lofty reputation, Lange's crew
will make the going rough for the visi
tors. Spotting the professionals four
inches of height per man and a good
deal of experience to boot, the Bantams
will be suffering under a decided handi
cap. Still Lange's crew isn't to be sold
short and can be counted upon to take
the fight to the opposition from whistle
to whistle.

luminary and league high-scorer last
