Not too many people know that Herb Porter was hteh scorer for
basketball intramurals heldthis past quarter. Porter, a sophomore
from Fayetteville, was a member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity
team and collected 159 points in 8 games for a healthy average of
v.o pomis per game. Sorter was playing a guard position and
more than doubled the score of everyone he guarded. His score was
particularly good because one game was forfeited to ATO which
means that Herbert scored more in eight games than any of his
opponents did in nine. The fraternity team won eight games and
lost only one. Their lone loss came at the hands of Zeta Psi, who de
feated Porter's team in the playoffs and went on to win the championship.
The fact is granted that everyone has a right to his opinion about
the brand of baseball played in the junior colleges. Probably the
persons who have the best opinion concerning these leagues are the
"big league" scouts, who are always on the lookout for potentiali
ties. The Boston Braves are particularly fond of Mr. Nate Andrews
who used to pitch for Presbyterian Junior College and then went
to the Cardinals. Up too early, Nate went back to Rochester and
had a couple of successful years. The Braves acquired him from the
International League and he has been showing up well in spring
practice this year. The Champion St. Louis Cardinals are keeping
an eagle eye on George Turbeville, who used to pitch for Presby
terian Junior College. George is the boy who held the Cleveland
Indians to 15 scoreless innings one day When he was pitching for the
Athletics. He is now at Shaw field, South Carolina. Nuf f sed !
The Carolina Relays scheduleld to take place at the end of the
week are definitely indefinite. Word from Woollen is that Navy,
last year's winner, has not entered the fold of entrants yet. Two
other important teams are missing and probably will not enter.
These teams were both expected to enter because of their closeness
and the brand of track teams which they put out. The two schools
are Duke and the Navy Pre-f light. They have a meet scheduled in
Durham on the day of the relays and with Cornelius Warmerdam on
hand to "pack in the customers" it is not likely that this meet will
be cancelled.
Add distress notes: Sam Arbes, the well known football player,
was frantically sending out SOS signals for a taxi-cab Saturday
night. Sam was located at Mclver dormitory and it was definitely
raining. The cab which he finally got, in case you're interested,
came by Mclver after depositing Roy Manning, freshman football
player, and his date at Woollen gymnasium. It looks like there is
no chance of getting a cab these days unless you're a football player !
The North and South Gold tournament for women starts at Pine
hurst Thursday after a qualifying round Wednesday. Chapel Hill's
Estelle Lawson Page, outstanding golfer and former winner of the
Teague Award, will not enter because her husband is expecting a
furlough this weekend. Oft runner-up Dot Kirby will be the favor
ite this year.
In town for the past few days was Hugh Morton of photographic
fame. Private Morton is in the photographic division at Camp
Davis and just received a ten day furlough. Hugh was wearing a
sharp-shooter's badge but admits he still does most of his shooting
with the camera. Hugh is a crack rifle shot and for several years
was on the North Carolina rifle team and competed at Ohio with
teams from other states. Missing from many state papers this
season will be the crack action sports pictures which Hugh took
when he had working agreements with many of the state papers.
After helping Ben Snyder on the Yackety Yack, Hugh departed
for Linville and will go from there back to camp.
Post Script: A live at home policy is excellent and Ithoroughly
endorse it. However, sports fans and columnists are also interested
in national and state happenings in the sporting world. Many sports
columnists make a habit of rewriting the most important bits of
the day and adding their own opinion about them. Sometimes it
makes a column worth even more ! What do you fans think

his team to eek out a 6-5 win.
It was a walkaway for Phi

Goodman stepped to the mound
for TEP and found everything
but the plate. He faced the home
run hitting of Nisbett, and the
three driving singles by Tillory,
and was satisfied to leave the
field when the game ended, the
score reading 18-4.
Another NROTC team, the
"Bums," forged ahead in the
early moments of their game,
but this aggregation couldn't
hold the lead, and bowed to the
heavy hitting of Delta Sigma Pi,
4-3.
Phi Kappa Sigma playedtheir

Gus Byerly once more came to
the front with two doubles and

Four Baggers
Highlight Game
For Both Teams
In a run-laden ball game be
tween the frosh and ther varsity
yesterday afternoon, the varsity
squad won by a score of 9-1.
The game was hightlighted
by three home runs knocked
out by Rivers Johnson in the
first, Horter in the second and
for the freshmen, Deane who
latched on to the first pitched
ball and layed it far into cen
ter field.
Most of the runs were scored
in the first frames of the eight
inning contest. For the fresh
men Deane led off with his four
bagger, and only, score for his
team.
In the varsity half of the first,
Craven Turner started a scor
ing spree with a walk, Hayworth
flied to center for the first out,
followed by a triple for Dub
Johnson on frosh right fielder
Hoey's error. Hussey's fly out to
deep center scored Johnson.
Rivers Johnson's homer then
made it 3-1. The scoring for the
inning ended when Wideman
fanned to retire the side.
The next big inning came in
the last of the fifth when Joe
Green, varsity pitcher, singled
to center followed by left fiel
der Black's and Horter's dou
bles. Horter's hit scored Green
and sent Black around to third
from where he scored on a sin
gle by Rivers, Johnson. Paitys
grounder was turned into the
first out, second to first and the
inning closed when McCreary
and Pecora flied out, but not
before Johnson had scored on
the putouts.
In the seventh, Horter led off
with his homer. Walters singled
through first base and Paty trip
led to send him in, but failed to
score himself when he was put

Green Racketmen
Open Tennis Wars
Against Davidson
Carolina's rookie-ladened ten
nis team, which faces the inevi
table task of duplicating last sea
son's fine record, started their
second week, of drilling in quest
of their fourth straight confer
ence crown by - engaging in a
lengthy practice yesterday.
Coach jTohri Kenfield, who has
readily admitted that, save some
act by Mandrake, his current out
fit would be a far cry from last
year's national champions,
sounded a note of pessimism as he
discussed the issue of assembling
an array to pit against Davidson
Saturday and one to make the an
nual northern trip the following
week, which includes contests
with the crack teams of the Na
val Academy and West Point.
Captain Harold Maass, John
Markham, and Moyer Hendrix
seem virtually assured of the No.
1, 2, and 3 positions for the open
ing battle. Standouts among the
newcomers are Dan Marks, hard
wood star, and freshmen Ray
Morris and Don Peck. Marks,
who swings a mean racquet and
handles himself equally as well
on the tennis court as he does on
the hardwood, seems the likely
choice for the No. 4 position.

of the inning. Thorburn, next

with a Texas league single to
right and went to scoring posi
tion at second on a nicely execu

out to the center fielder whose
return to second caught Thor
burn off the bag to retire the side.
That made it 9-1 and that's the
way the score was when the two
teams walked off the field at the
end of the eighth.
Both teams looked much better
