Even the most ardent Tar Heel followers and the elephant minded tennis fans of this sec tion will have to dig way down to remember the last Carolina defeat in a conference match, and Coach John Kenfield's rack etmen will rule as favorite's in tomorrow's encounter. In case of argument the last loop setback was against Georgia Tech way back in 1928, the first year of Coach Kenfield's regime.

A University of Texas engi neer, Luis Bartlett, is the inven tor of a new and improved quick- freeze process and a new dehy dration machine for fruits. the Carolina fans by dumping another hit into center. Rivers Johnson f lied to center and a pass to Mack Morris filled the bases. Shot Cox kept center- fielder Marchand ' busy again, with the second out being re corded as Wideman tagged up and came across with his team's first marker.
