Tar Heels Prepare
For Davidson Game
Long Scrimmage
With Freshmen
Marks Practice
A long, hard scrimmage was the
order of the day in Kenan stadium
yesterday, as the. Tar Heel gridders
continued' rushing preparations for
Saturday's game with Davidson in
Charlotte.
The second and third teams scrim
maged most of the afternoon while
the first-stringers faced Davidson
plays as run by Coach Bill Lange's
Tar Baby eleven.
None of the men looked particular
ly good in the early afternoon scrim
mages. Later in the day, however,
the varsity started scrimmaging the
frosh. and tore the younger team to
shreds with some hard running and
plunging. Bill Sigler stood out and
got off for one long touchdown run.
Joe Austin, playing only intermit
tently throughout the afternoon, also
scored for the regulars.
The third team outscored the second-string
eleven in their long scrim
mage by two . touchdowns to one.
Johnny Pecora sparked the lighter
third stringers to their two scores.
He passed to Walt Thorburn for one
tichdown and hit Hugh Bigham with
another heave for the second score.
Billy Myers, running on -the second
team yesterday while Shot Cox took
over the first-team reins, scored his
eleven's only touchdown.
Blocking and tackling were empha
sized again yesterday by Coach Jim
Tatum, who directed the scrimmage
between the second and third teams.
Some of the play was sloppy, with a
few men standing out. The men did
not appear to be on razor edge and
lookecT as if they must still work to
be ready for the fighting Wildcats
Saturday.
. The frosh ran Davidson plays
against the varsity with fair success.
Here again no man stood out in the
workout. However, towards the close
of the afternoon, Coach Tatum gave
the first eleven the ball and let them
tear into the frosh line. Hugh Cox
was at tailback far the first team,
with Clay Croom, Mike Cooke, and
Bill Sigler rounding out the second
ary for the second straight day. Joe
Austin also saw some service, but his
kn,ee, hurt in the Tulane game, still
bothers him a little.
Tank Marshall, senior guard, again
was forced to work out lightly yester
day. Reoccurrence of his old knee in
jury kept him out of the State game
for all but a few minutes, and it is
still indefinite as to whether or not he
will -see much service against David
son. The rest of the first eleven shaped
up the same as it did in the State
game. Jack Hussey and Chaven Tur
ner were at ends, Bob Heymann and
Joe Wolf at tackles, Ralph Strayhorn
and Andy Karres at guards, and Chan
Highsmith at the pivot spot.
Reports emanating from the Da
vidson camp indicate that Coach Mc
Ever is drilling his men hard in an
attempt to get the Wildcats ready to
upset the Tar Heels. Davidson's club
is definitely on the upgrade and Caro
lina will face a stiff obstacle Satur
day. Brubaker Shatters
Pi Phi Backfield
In Terrific Tussle
By Phyllis Yates
The highly favored Spencer dorm
hockey team yesterday afternoon
smashed through the Pi Phi eleven, 2
to 0.
In a match marked by hard hitting
and rough playing, the Spencer girls
drove to the lead with a tally off the
stick of center Brubaker, playing
strictly heads-up ball all the way.
This score came in the second period
of play after an uneventful first quarter.
Brubaker came back with the sec
ond goal in the final quarter of play.
But only after her teammatts, Chap-
pell, Hunt and Flanagan had fought
hard to clear away the Pi Phi defen
sive. McCaskill, Miller and King were
outstanding in the sorority's backfield
and worked all the way to back up
their weak forward wall.
The new combination team of Town
Alderman has its first match this af
ternoon against the Kenan squad.
Play will begin promptly at 2 p.m. in
Kenan stadium.
The North Carolina-Davidson head
liner at 2:30 Saturday will mark the
first time a Tar Heel eleven has played
in Charlotte since 1936.

RAY JORDAN won't be carrying the mail Saturday when the Tar Heels
and Davidson renew their interesting rivalry. A fullback in 1941, Jordan
has been shifted to center this fall and it'll be his job to feed the ball to his
backfield mates. Jordan is catching onto his duties nicely and moved up to
the No. 2 spot behind Chan Highsmith, current sophomore sensation.

Seniors Take
Easy Triumph
In Track Meet
The seniors came through for their
second straight win in the fall inter
class meets yesterday afternoon by
rolling up a score of 45 points. The
freshmen and sophomores wound up
in a tie for runner-up honors with 34
each, with the juniors bringing up the
rear with 18.'
Mike Mangum and Roy Cathey
again led the seniors, accounting for
33 points between them. Mangum
won firsts in the 60-yard dash, broad
jump and both hurdle races, while
Cathey broke the tape in the 330 and
660-yard runs besides gaining a
fourth in the sixty. These two boys
were also members of the winning
half-mile relay team. Rich Van
Wagoner and Bill Thomas ran the
other two legs. Co-captain Truett
Bennett won the pole vault and Win
Capel tied for top honors in the high
jump to wind up the fourth year
team's scoring.
Julian McKenzie, who finished first
in the three-quarter mile run, was the
only freshman winner. However, Nel
son, Schultz, Briley, Mirsky, Cordon,
Miller, Sessons, Wall, and Graham

victory over the Steele Barracks boys
Levy and Levin scored for the winners
on passes, and Warren ran for the
other touchdown. Black and Finn scored
the two touchdowns for the losers by
catching aerials. Henson also played
a fine game for the losers.
Steele scored its third victory of the

26-14, in a free scoring game. Davis
looked very good for the winners as
did also Calloway and Long. Shaw and
Graham stood out for the defeated

DKE continued its undefeated season
by trouncing ZBT, 27-0. Outstanding
for the winners were Rodman, Gibbons,

played well for the losers.
In one of the most closely contested
games of the year, Phi Gamma Delta

For Saturday Game
The identical eleven that opened
fire last Saturday in the 9 to 0 vic
tory over Syracuse will be on the field
for the opening kickoff for the Pxe-
flight school Cloudbusters Saturday
against Georgetown university's Hoy
es at Washington, D. C, it was an
nounced yesterday bv Coach Jim
Crowley, head coach.
The starting unit averages 191
pounds per man in the line with
Game Captain Joe Frank, a George
town-graduate, the heaviest at 210.
The light backfield tips only 174
pounds per man with left halfback
Leonard Eshmont the biggest at 185.
All players are in top condition and
all are hoping for action against the
Georgetown outfit that has been high
ly publicized, verbally, by Frank, who
knows what the Hoyas can do and
who was the most surprised man in
the country last Saturday when he
heard the score of Boston college's
triumph over his alma mater.
As indicated by the lightweight
backfield, the Cloudbusters will rely
on break-away running, rather than
power, for yardage and, they hope,
touchdowns. ' Lou Buf alino, ex-Cor
nell star, gets the call at fullback. He
weighs 170 pounds and can shake
loose for distance runs if given half
a chance.
The lad who doesn't. need even half
a chance to get under a full head of
steam is Walter Zwiezynski, 175
pound right halfback who once star
red for Lafayette college. The lead

In his march to a final berth, Small
won over three players, Forbes Milli

was the only opponent to oppose
Small on the courts, the other two go
ing down by defaults.
Cash and Slaughter are scheduled
to clash for the remaining final brack
et tomorrow afternoon. Coach John
Kenfield also announced that the finals
will be held Tuesday at 3 p.m.
Frosh Cagers Note
Freshman basketball practice will
be held at 3:45 p.m. on the outdoor
courts until Monday, Coach Doc Sie
wert announced yesterday.
The hopes of the Tar Babies of over
coming the Virginia Baby Cavaliers to
morrow afternoon in Kenan stadium
were dealt a serious blow yesterday
afternoon when the second Tar Baby
this fall was removed to the list of
those not to play any more this sea
son. Jack Fitch who had been a main
stay for the frosh at his first string
wingback position went into the infirm
ary last night suffering a fracture of a
small bone in his left leg which he re
ceived when drilling against the var
sity. Fitch received his injury when
he twisted his ankle after jumping for
a long pass.
It was in the Wake Forest game last
Saturday that Rutkowski, first string
guard, received a head injury that re
quired his being taken from the game
early in the second half. Although Rut
kowski was at Kenan stadium yester
day to watch the freshmen scrimmage
and run Davidson plays against the
varsity club he wasn't in uniform, and
isn't expected to don gridiron togs the
rest of this fall.
Also in the Wake Forest game Jack
Fitch wrenched his left ankle slightly,
though not enough for him to be taken
from the game. Fitch had been rest
ing his ankle all this week with no
body contact in. the workouts, but fate
deserted him yesterday.
The freshman coaches now face the
task of finding someone capable
enough to fill in Fitch's shoes and work
along with Doc Blanchard, Rusty Cra
ver, and Jim Culberson. Fitch's star
roles this season have been taking a
flat pass over center, and carrying the
ball on reverses.
The probable choice to fill Fitch's
vacated post will be decided by the
freshman coaches from among Bill El
lis, Toler, and Stephanie. Frank Toler
is now occupying the second string
wingback position, and gets the favor
ed nod for the position, but both Ellis
and Stephanie are likely choices. Ellis
played from the tailback post against
the Deaclets, but earlier this fall he
has been running from the wingback
slot. Stephanie, who made All-Virginia
last year, has been out with in

Major Aerial Bombardment
Expected in Davidson Game l
By Tom Bost, Jr. .
If last week's contests be a criterion,
the Tar Heel and Davidson football
teams are expected to play a fast,
wide-open contest, with the emphasis
on passing, in their annual scrap at
Charlotte Saturday afternoon.
The Tar Heels and Wildcats showed
potent air attacks in their games with
N. C. State and V. M. I. Saturday
and threw a total of 40 aerials.
Davidson's ability to complete passes
resulted in the downfall of the highly
touted V. M. I. Cadets. The Wildcats
made good 57 percent of their aerials
(12 out of 21) for 186 yards to trounce
the Virginians 24 to 6.
Passes accounted directly for the
first and third Davidson touchdowns
and set up the final tally, an eight
yard field goal. The fine percentage
against V. M. I. gave Davidson a sea
son's record in passing of 37 comple
tions in 89 attempt! for 533 yards or
better, a 42 percent mark for comple
tions. In last year's battle Carolina and
Davidson attempted a total of 39
passes for 70 yards while the Tar
Heels had four bulls' eyes in 13 at
tempts for 46 yards. But Carolina
did a lot more with its four passes
tVinn Davidson with its 10 for all
three Tar Heel touchdowns came on
passes. Johnny Pecora passed 6 yards
to Howard Hodges for the first score
and Shot Cox pitched 15 and 7 yards
to Emil Serlich and Hodges, respec
tively, for the second and third touch
downs. And the game ended 20-0.
While the Tar Heels had 10 passes
completed against them, their defenses
tightened when their goal line was en
dangered and they managed to inter
cept no less than seven Davidson
aerials.
Davidson has been usine a half
dozen different passers in six games
and all are exceptionally good pitch
ers. These are Johnny Frederick,
Rov Hunt. Buck Williams. Red Be-
thea, Ben Washburn, and Wileman
Ehlev. Thus onnosinff teams have
had much difficulty setting their de
fenses, for they have to stop six men
infetead of one.
The veteran Cox and sophomores
Walt Pupa and Billy Myers will do
the hurling for the Tar Heels and all
have shown marked ability this sea
son. Myers leads the way with 11
bulls-eyes in 26 attempts. Cox has
made good 7 of 18 and Pupa 3 of 9.
It looks like a red hot aerial battle
with nine hurlers on the firing line
Anything might happen and probably
will

TWO OBSTACLES which
have been added recently
to the obstacle course are
pictured above. The un
dercover run, above, is 60
feet long and is designed
to teach the Naval cadets
how to cover ground in a
crouched position. The
cargo net climb, right,
towers 18 feet off the
ground and the net used
is exactly the same to be
found on board ship for
dropping over the side
into a smaller boat. It is
constructed to teach the
cadets how to climb up
and down the sides of
their ship. These two ob
stacles bring the total
number on the 600-yard
course to 27, and have
been responsible for an
increase of 41 seconds in
the record for the course,
which now stands at 3.17
minutes. The obstacles
will be of valuable use in
the physical fitness program.
