Triple Threat Tailback Turns
-fv nt Juc-ge Beauty Queens
(This column by Ctiarlie Justice, Tar Heel football star turned
beauty judge, i$ being reprinted by special permission of Smith
Harrier, Spcsrts editor of the Greeraboro Daily News.' Justice
wrote it for the News while Smith was vacationing at the beach
last wczk.)
By Charlie Justice
"ifiuuvme Dtacn, juiy xs. for tne nrsr time in my me l m
beginning to understand how Gsbe Hill felt after that Carolina
Georgia Sugar Eowl game down in Ivew Orleans. According to the
"newspapers and some 70-odd thousand fans who saw the game, Mr.
Hill made but one glaring mistake.
Right now I feel that I've just finished making 25 serious errors.
There . were 26 of those North Carolina beauties, Smith, but there's
i no need to tell you that for you
A 1 . .
na anyone 01 tnose zb queens
Lna" in my estimation. But like
but one and that we did. Beautiful wasn't she?
What a lough assignment that was, trying to select one out of
i 7 that 26. Why, I'd rather try and carry a football through the Chicago
if Bears' line than have to go through it again. But just in case any
oi ine jaycees wno invited me to neip out this year might be read
ing this epistle I might add that I doubt that I'd turn down the
opportunity to do it again next year.
Also I must admit that Miss North Carolina, while most attrac
tive, still rates No. 2 with me. You've met No. 1, Smith. She's my
wife, Sarah, a petite young lady with a twinkle in her eye, one
who has contributed greatly to my success with the pigskin.
Let me talk about Sarah for a paragraph or two. All those news
paper clippings about the ability of the Tar Heels can have a funny
effect on a young fellow like me. And when there are a lot of write-ups
with comments about No. 22, I discover that my chest starts
to swell just a little without my ever realizing it. . i
Sarah To The Rescue
Th is is where Sarah, bless her soul, comes to the rescue. She
' sees those, things, and kinda puts me in my place, makes me realize
that carrying a football for Carolina will not make a successful
businessman. And then she usually points out that I'd better hit the
books or there won't be anymore football.
It works from another angle. After those Texas and Wake
Forest defeats last year, the student body and coaches and Tar Heel
supporters got to feeling pretty low. Members of the football squad
were even lower. They knew they had the makings of a great team,
,but something was missing.
That's when I needed Sarah most, and it was swell to go home
at night and receive the assurance from her that everything would
work out okay.
I could write you several columns about Sarah, but that would
, be just a little too personal for the readers of your fine column. But
down here at Wrightsville I couldn't help but think about something
that she has pointed out to me many, many times.
Selecting beauty queens and playing football is one and the
same in the Justice family. You see down here we couldn't select
but one queen, and she alone will receive all the pictures and head
lines. But it wouldn't even have been a beauty contest if the other
25 girls hadn't put in their appearance. '''
Ii Takes Whole Team
The same holds true on a football field. The only criticism I've
ever had of the fine sports writers of North Carolina is that they
seem to forget those other 10 men on the Carolina eleven some
times. And those other 10, well, they have to sweat and fight and
scrap and block and tackle and run and pass and hustle -more'
often than not, a lot more than I do. The linesmen have to partici
pate in every play while I carry the ball once or twice in a series
of offensive plays.
I'm. not trying to say that a tailback has it easy no one does
in this game of football but I am saying that a lot of Carolina
players take terriffic punishment Saturday after Saturday without
getting the Sunday morning headlines.
This will probably be my first and last opportunity at newspaper
columning, so I'd like to forget beauty queens and talk a bit of
football just a line or two more. Those second, third and fourth
stringers at the Hill take as much punishment as any of the rest
cf us, and the fans unless they are personal friends never even
know their jersey numbers. Our football team will never be any
better than the third or fourth stringers. If they don't furnish us
tough competition during those practice sessions, we can't go out
on Saturday and hold our own against teams like Duke and Georgia
and Texas.
It took more than poise and beauty for Miss Patty Osbourne to
be named Miss North Carolina. It took a bit of luck. I'm happy that
she had that good fortune for I know exactly how she feels. I've
been lucky these past' few years, lucky to have Sarah, lucky to be
getting an education at Chapel Hill, lucky to have a man like Coach
Snavely, plus his capable assistants, teaching me the million and one
things I don't know about football. : . .
And come to think of it, the time isn't far off before they'll be
teaching me a few things once again. Now it's only 42 more days
until the first practice session gets under way, and some 67 sunsets
before the Texas skirmish. Which reminds me I:d better forget
about beauty queens and turn the thoughts to football once' again.'

high school. .(Pennsylvania men's tennis
The announcement of the ap- j champion-hip.
pointment of Tandy to the post
was made by John W. Moore,
superintendent of city schools.
He was recommended for the po?;t
by athletic leaders at Chapel Hill.
Tandy, a native of Westfield,
N. J., played four years of out
standing football for the Tar
Heels. He is 27 years of age, mar
ried and has two children. Tandy
will assume his new duties when
football practice is called at
Reynolds high August 20.
After starring at Westfield high,
Tandy entered Carolina in 1940
and played two years before en
tering the navy. He returned to
Chapel Hill after the .war and
played as a" regular end in 1946
and 1947. While in service, Tandy
coached a service football team
at Honolulu. He was a chief petty
officer in the navy.
Tandy also was an outstanding
track star at Carolina, running
the middle distance for Coach
Bob Fetzer's Southern conference
team.
The new Reynolds coach played
under three coaches while at
Carolina. He starred . for Ray
Wolf's team, played under Jim
Tatum, and for the last two years
as a key man on Carl Snavely's
powerful teams, playing both of
fensive and defensive end.' .
The Jersey flanker grabbed a
pass to score the touchdown
which gave Carolina a victory
oyer the University of Georgia
last year. He was considered an
able running mate iii the pass
catching department with tail
Art Weiner.
Being graduated this spring, he
is considered one of the keen
est students of football at Caro
lina. His year of coaching in the
navy gives him needed exper
ience in this field.
He is. also a, Phi.. Beta Kappa.
He weighs 175 pounds and is six
feet tall.
He will succeed George Thomp
son who resigned several days
ago to accept the athletic' direc
torship at Edenton high. Thomp
son had agreed to terms to re

be released to take the job at
Edenton.

line star last fall, will assist
Tandy in the coaching of the
Black Demons.

Nair of Aiken, S. C. today an
nexed his second Carolinas' ama
teur golf championship by scor
ing a decisive 6 and; 5 victory
over Keely Grice, Jr., of Char
lotte. .
Playing with rapid assurance
under a sizzling sun, the Duke
star played a steady par golf
most of the way while Grice was
battling with bogeys.
Yesterday the South Caro-
linian . eliminated North and
South amateur champion, Harvie
Ward of Tarboro and the Uni
versity of North Carolina, 4 and
3 in one of the semi-final round
tussles. Grice duplicated the
score in defeating Erwin Laxton
of Charlotte in the other match.
McNair experienced a little
trouble with his putting but was
consistently deadly with his irons.
Grice completely lost the sure
touch displayed ' in earlier
rounds.
It marked the second time Mc
Nair was crowned the Carolinas
amateur champ. He also copped
the title at Winston-Salem in
1946. Studies at Duke, from
which , he graduated . last . month,
kept him out of last year's play
which was won by Billy Joe
Patton of Morgantown.

Chapel Hill Juniors
In Area One Victory
The American Legion Juniors
of Chapel Hill continued their
mattery over Wake Forest here
Wednesday, punching out a 6 to 3
victory over the visitors, thanks
to the one-hit relief pitching of
Louis McBryde for six innings.
Wake Forest caught on to
Chapel Hill starter Billy May in
the third inning or three runs
to take the lead. However, Wake
Forest ace Billy Hawks was sent
to the showers in the fifth when
the hometown boys dished up an
even more thunderous uprising
i, to score four times,
From there on, Chapel Hill
coasted in behind the brilliant
j chunking of McBryde who has
, posted two wins in his last three
starts.
A smashing two-run homer by
shortstop Bobby Steward in the
eighth inning accounted for the
locals' final runs.
It was the third victory for
Chapel Hill in five starts in the
second round of Area One play.
Wake Forest has won two gams
and lost three, while Wilson con-
