In the spring of 1940 Henderson extended Don Budge, then at the heighth of his career, to a three-set win here at Chapel Hill in an exhi bition match. Henderson took the first set from his famous opponent, 6-2, but Budge displayed the skill that made him amateur and professional king and won the next two sets from the less experienced Henderson. Later that year Henderson added an upset victory over Bobby Riggs See TENNIS page $ Frosh Netters Defeat State Dropping only one doubles engage ment to a weak team of State fresh men, Carolina's yearling net team thumped the visiting Baby Terrors by the score of 8-1, yesterday for its fourth victory of the season against one defeat.

State plays Duke in. the ond contest. Benton, who Tuesday limited David son to seven well-spaced hits to win his fifth victory of the season, will be attempting for the second time this year to pitch a game after only a one day rest period. Benton Beat Deacs Once Fifteen days ago Benton hurled the Tar Heels to a 4-1 decision over Wake Forest in the Deac's back lot and two days biter won a brilliant 5-4 triumph over State. Against Wake Forest last time Ben ton wa3 touched for only six hits. He fanned four two of the strikeouts coming when the Deacs filled the bases with only one man out. He left nine men stranded. Wake Forest Improves Wake Forest has shown consider able improvement and will provide Carolina some tough opposition. Eith er Art (Lefty) Vivian or Jakie Pearce, whom the Tar Heels belted out of the box in the first tilt between the clubs, will oppose Benton. Should Coach Bunn Hearn change his mind at the last minute and hold Benton out of the game, Charlie Moore, who has won three games without a loss, will get the starting nod. Moore, a 6 foot 3 inch right hander, licked Virginia Tech 6-3, South Carolina 12-1 and Virginia 18 1.

VU' y Lloyd, Bennett Holzman Give Track Team Valuable Points Pole Vaulters Have Been Overlooked, But Deserve Praise A typical University athletic organi zation customarily emerges with one or two outstanding competitors whose luck it is to obscure the work of lesser teammates by. virtue of outstanding t performances. Such a team is Carolina's track and field unit. Rich Van Wagoner, Mike Wise, Roy Cathey and several others have been grabbing the headlines for years with clock-like regularity. The job that they have been doing cannot be over estimated, but yet it is well to look at the other side of the picture. There are at Chapel Hill a number of men without whose work in piling up vital seconds and thirds, as well as occasion al firsts, the track team would be far from the attainment of its present rec ord. Lloyd, Bennett Star Of such calibre is Coach Bob Fetzer's pole vaulting twosome of Jim Lloyd and Truitt Bennett. For two years now, Lloyd and Bennett have been Tendering valuable service in the interests of Tar Heel track and field might and have picked up little recognition in doing it. Last season they were an indis pensable part of the resurgent Carolina club that almost caught Duke napping in the conference meet and this season they have proved to be an even greater asset. Actually the pair hasn't been See TRACK, page 4 Pi Phi Plays ADPi Pi Phi plays ADPi today at 5 o'clock in the only coed softball game scheduled. There was no game yesterday.

Tying the game at 1-all in the last of the seventh and going ahead in the eighth, SAE edged out TEP in a close 2-1 win. Arnold Salzberg, TEP hurler, pulled himself out of a bad spot in the seventh, allowing only one run after the bases had been loeded with none out, but Claude Strickland singled home the winning run in the eighth to give SAE the contest. Kappa Psi downed Phi Gams No. 2 in another overtime contest, pushing across two runs in the first of the eighth.

" i Lewis or Sparger To Pitch Game For Tar Babies By Bill Woestendiek Definitely back on the winning trail again, the Carolina freshman ball club will clash with the Company E, 134th Medical infantry team from Fort Bragg on Emerson field today at 4 o'clock. Either George Sparger or Bart Lewis will toe the mound for the Tar Babies. The frosh gave their best baseball performance of the current season over in Durham Wednesday when they administered an 11-4 drubbing to the Duke yearlings for their fifth victory of the year. The Tar Babies will be out for No. 6 against the army club today. Fort Bragg Strength Unknown The Fort Bragg nine is of an un known calibre, but will undoubtedly field a strong team against the home club in this afternoon's game. George Sparger and Bart Lewis, right-handed frosh hurlers, have each won one game this spring and one of these two men will be seeking his second win. Lewis has suffered one loss, while Sparger is undefeated. Fraise is due in large quantities to the Tar Babies for their excellent showing against the Blue Imps Wed nesday. The men were all in top form and Coach Jim Tatum stated that he was greatly pleased by the perform ance. Green and Lee Praised Special bouquets should be given to the batterymen, Joe Green and Bill Lee. Green turned in what was by far the hurling masterpiece of the fresh man season in being the first frosh slinger to pitch a complete game. The Weldon lad completely subjugated the Imps with the exception of one bad inning in which he walked three men and turned in a performance that Coach Tutum termed "wonderful." Bill Lee, former Fuquay Springs high and Darlington prep star, has come a long way since the start of the season and is now one of the team's top performers. Placed in the So. 1 receiving spot at the start of the season by the ineligibility of Truck Holtzclaw, Lee took over in a See FROSH BASEBALL, page U BUY COAL NOW SUMMER CASH PRICES FITCH LUMBER CO.
