I I III VII II VOLUME LVTI " United Press 49 -W crop U i 3 i IS 4 V - tr 1 Capital Is y Tor Post-Game Victory Celebrations Hold Big City Spellbound In Grip By Chuck Hauser WASHINGTON, Nov. 13 The nation's capital went mad today as hundreds of Tar Heels stormed down main thoroughfares in the heart of downtown Washington. Flag-waving, banner - carrying hordes of Carolinians swept down E street at high noon in a parade that Washingtonians will have a hard time lorgetting. Harry Tru man's triumphant return could not have been any more wild. There was no doubt in any , passerby's mind as to the identity of the parading students. Blue and white streamers "Beat Mary land" cheers and a thundering "Hark the Sound" echoing off the capital's buildings clearly told the story that the Tar Heels were in town. The parade wound up 14th street and into Franklin park where a pep rally rocked the streets and shook windows in government office buildings. Sprit was still high when the visitors took over almost one com plete side of Griffith stadium. Cow bells and sirens were much in evidence cn the Blue and White side of the field. One large Confederate flag and scores of small ones flapped in the breeze throughout the stands. One dele gation of Carolina students show ed up wearing firemen's helmets made of paper. After the game, victory cele brations began in every large hotel in town. Few Washington ians got much sleep as the par ties continued through the night. Many Tar Heels planned to see tomorrow's sun come up over the Potomac. A large group of alum ni and students were present at the Washington hotel where the North Carolina society gave a dance for all state football fans. Hotel rooms and hotel corridors were jammed with hand-shaking, back-slapping, oblivious-to-any-thing-except-that-we-won Chapel Hill students. Downtown streets still echoed with "Let's go, Caro lina!" as the visitors traveled from one hotel to another on their sorties to rf new old acquaintances whom they had not seen since yesterday when they left Chapel Hill. Lions Down Navy On Muddy Field For 13-0 Victory NEW YORK, Nov. 13. (UP) Columbia handed a scrappy Navy eleven its 13th straight defeat in a two year span today by tak ing advantage of its only two scoring' opportunities for a 13-0 victory before a crowd of 35,000. The Lions scored two touch downs within four minutes of playing time divided by the half time rest. The first score was made in the last 12 seconds of the first half, and the second came ;ifter only six plays in the third period. Bill Lockwood scored the first touchdown by taking a five-yard pass from Gene Rossides. The Lions took the kick-off at the start of the third quarter and covered 71 yards in six plays. Kusscrow then took a lateral from Rossides at the 16 and dash ed for a touchdown. Today's victory snapped Co lumbia losing streak at four . i tfA Karnes. The Navy team oamcu without letting down throughout but could not push the Dau across the goal-line although it had sev- oral opportunities. A severe and sudden rainstorm shortly after the start of the second half made the field a sea of mud and the attack of the toams bogged down between the in , . 30 yard marks. . , Stormed ee Victors Football Scores EAST Columbia 13.

Alabama Nips Tech, 14-12 In Big Upset Before 40,000 ATLANTA, Ga... Nov. 13. (UP) Alabama's Red Elephants, who never forget to stampede the odds-makers at least once a year, crashed through to a de served 14-12 upset victory over Georgia Tech today before a crowd of 40,000. On top all the way, the under rated Alabamans deflated Tech's major bowl hopes for keeps and at the same time raised their own rating from mediocre to better than fair: For Tech it was Allen (Dinky) Bowen, hobbled and heart-broken for almost two seasons, who threw away his crutch and kept Tech fighting mad and in the I game. Bowen scored both Tech touchdowns, but he also fizzled the two extra-point tries that meant the margin on the score board. Yet, for once, extra-point ad vantage gave the victory to the better team. Alabama, a 14-point underdog after three defeats in cluding a 35 to 0 humiliation by Georgia, came up for this one trumpeting like the Red Elephant of yore. 3 . . f 1 II Blue Devils In Durham Public Try outs Will Be Held For New Show An extra tryout session for the joint Carolina Playmaker -Music department production of Gilbert and Sullivan's famous musical, "H. M. S. Pinafore," will be held in Memorial hall at 8:00 o'clock Tuesday, according to co-director Foster Fitz-Simmons. The public tryouts, which are open to all students and towns people who are interested in ap pearing in the production next January, were called after one of the four scheduled tryout per iods last week -was cancelled. Students trying out for roles will be asked to sing a number of their 'own choosing, and an ac companist will be presented. The session is being held under the direction of Gwyne McPeek of the music department, co-director of the production. "II. M. S. Pinafore" is schedul ed for Jan. 28 and 29, following the playmaker tour of "The School for Scandal" during the first part of the month. "The School for Scandal," by Richard Sheridan, will be the first pro duction to be toured by the Play makers since 1941. Harry E. Da vis is directing the tour produc tion, which will be presented first in Chapel Hill, Dec. 1, 2, 3, and 4. They took the play away from Tech. They recovered both their own fumbles and Tech's, and generally dominated the game except in the fourth quarter when the Yellow Jackets made a dying gasp for victory. Alabama hopped to a 7 to 0 lead just before the half after Jimmy Petit -fumbled Brown's hard-slanting punt on the Tech five and Alabama center Doug Lockridge pounced on it. On the next play, fleet Billy Cadenhead sped around left end for the score and Salem kicked the goal. Bowen, a savage running left halfback, brought Tech back into the picture in the third period. His center, Louis Hook had in tercepted a Gordon Pettus pass and hauled it to Alabama's 30. Bowen rammed the line once, then cut through right tackle and down the sidelines, spinning his way 26 yards to a score. His point try was low. Alabama put the clinch on a few moments . later when Speed intercepted Jimmy Southard's pass and sped 62 yards for a touchdown. Swamp GW Game, 62-0 DURHAM, Nov. 13. (UP) Duke's Blue Devils romped today to their highest score since 1945 and downed a brave but baffled George Washington team, 62-0, before 12,000 happy partisans. It was George Washington's first encounter with Duke and they suffered only to the war time team representing Bogue Field. Duke defeated them 76-0. - The big Duke team shrugged off the flashing efforts- of George Washington's freshman backfield gun, Andy Davis, and Davis left the game for good in the second period. Duke, beaten soundly in its last two starts, rebounded with a vengeance and scored twice in every period except the fourth when they took advantage of George Washington bobbles and slipped over three scores. It was no contest from the stai-t. George Washington, after a valiant showing in the first minutes, folded beneath the on slaught of the Duke line and the charging backfield. Duke tackle I Al Derogatis time and again bat tered into the enemy backfield to thwart attempted gains. Dental Society Seeks Money For School Here RALEIGH, Nov. 13 (UP) . The North Carolina Dental so ciety today sought an appropri ation of $1,450,000 to set up a school of dentistry at Chapel Hill in connection with the Uni versity's proposed four-year-medical school. The society asked the Adviso ry Budget commission also for $279,000 to operate the dental school during the 1949-51 bi ennium. The organization proposed to spend $1,000,000 of the large ap propriation for a clinical build ing containing 65 dental chairs. Dr. C. W. Sanders, president of the society, said that it was al most impossible for North Caro linians to be admitted to other dental schools because of over crowded conditions. The North Carolina Bar as sociation asked that salaries of Supreme Court justices be raised to $15,000 a year. They now re ceive $10,000 annually including $2,500 described as an expense allowance. Nominations Planned For SP Meet Monday The Student party will meet tomorrow nisrht at 8 o'clock in Roland Parker lounge 3 of Gra ham Memorial. Nominations for junior class officers and legisla ture posts will be received. Party members and persons interested in running for these offices are urged to attend the meeting. Army Sinks Penn In 26-20 Thriller In Quaker City PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13. (UP) Mighty Army, trembling on the brink of disaster, roared from behind in the final 30 sec onds today to defeat Pennsyl vania, 26-20, on a 15-yard touch down pass. A delirious crowd of 78,205 saw Arnold G alii fa, a goat up to that point, hit Johnny Trent in the end zone with a zipping aerial that continued Army's march toward a perfect season. ' Game Penn had risen to un believable heights against a team which was expected to call its score, and had brewed the upset of the season until the three fatal closing minutes, then the Cadets swept 74 yards in a dramatic never-say-die sequence of first downs. A team with less courage than the Black Knights from the Hud son might have wilted when the fighting Penn eleven scored what appeared to be the winning touchdown with six minutes left in the ball game. This was a brilliant personal sortie by Ray . Dooney, playing with the. load of father's death on his heart. Dooney, the Penn battering ram, hit from the 42 with Penn trailing 19-14. He galloped the distance and stark hysteria hit the Franklin field stands. What appeared to be the clinch er was applied when Farquhar Jones intercepted a Galiffa pass and ran it 22 yards to Penn's '47. inen and tnere, Fenn was with- in one first down of winning the game. Irish Bounce Back to Take 12-7 Victory From Wildcats SOUTH BEND, Ind., Nov. 13 (UP) Notre Dame, spurred to its greatest effort of the year by a 90-yard touchdown run that gave Northwestern a one-point lead, bounced from behind with cruelly perfect football to defeat North western 12-7 before 59,305 fans today. The victory was Notre Dame's 20th in succession and its 26 th straight game without defeat. But it was obtained only after 60 minutes of heart-stopping football, more chilling to the fans , than the 40-degree temperature. The Northwestern tally came late in the third period on full back Art Murakowski's 90-yard dash with an intercepted pass, thrown by Irish quarterback, I Frank Tripucka. His run and Jim Farrar's place kick put the Wildcats ahead, 7-6, and the stadium hushed in ex pectance of the first Notre Dame defeat since 1945. But they reckoned wrongly on the precision drives of the Irish Writers impressed B y Carolina Team Seven Touchdown Barrage Staggers Outclassed Maryland Grid Combine By Dick Jenrette GRIFFITH STADIUM, WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 13. North Carolina and Maryland treated 36,000 fans, the largest crowd ever to witness a football game in the nation's capital, to a real show here this afternoon, with the unbeaten Tar Heels romping to a 49-20 decision in a wide-open Southern conference battle.

The Irish responded to their one-point deficit like men out to win a war. In 13 plays they , rolled' 63 yards with smashing accuracy before Billy Gay dove two yards for the touchdown that cemented the victory. Both teams played their hearts out, particularly in the line. Dur ing the first half Notre Dame threw only two passes and North western seven. At the opening, Northwestern marched almost to the Irish goal but their drive sputtered out. Than Notre Dame had its turn. Under Tripucka's direction, the Irish piled 71 yards in 15 plays for their first touchdown. John Panelli went over on a two-yard plunge, but Terry Brennan, a little Irish laa whose pre-game physical condition was so bad he was expected to play only a few minutes on defense, set up the score with gains of 60 yards in six plays. The contest was about as wild as the weekend which some 6,000 '.oyal Tar Heel fans enjoyed in Washington. The game consti tuted what was probably the best performance of the season for Carolina. The Tar Heels seemed to have mastered their fumbling difficulties, and the passing was the best at any time this season. A poor pass defense was about the only deficiency in the Tar Heels' play. Although the Tar Heels were victorious today, they still lost their biggest chance for the Southern conference champion ship. Clemson's Tigers, who K n mr 'f Keen Kfiofart in lnir m petition, defeated Wake Forest, 21-14, in Winston-Salem. The Deacons were the only major ob stacle remaining in the Tigers' path to the title. A tie with Wil liam and Mary mars the Tar Heel conference slate. Writers Cheer But the day was still a glorious one for Carolina. A large num ber of Northern sports writers, usuaDy skeptical about Southern football, witnessed the game and went away convinced of the Tar Heels' ability. As a result, Caro lina should improve its national ranking this week. Maryland drew first blood to day, scoring after 2:15 had elaps ed in the first quarter. But fumbles and pass interceptions soon enabled the opportunist Tar Heels to build up a commanding lead. Despite Carolina's 49 points, Maryland had a substan tial edge in statistics. The Terps of Coach Jim Tatum ran up 12 first downs to 1 1 for Carolina and picked up 349 yards combined rushing and passing to only 179 for Carolina. The true story of the game is told in Carolina's recovery of four Maryland fumbles and in terception of three passes. Bill Maceyko, Carolina defensive safety man who turned in a great game, ran two of these in terceptions all the way for touch downs. Fireworks by Bonk A 76-yard run by Maryland's Harry Bonk on the opening play of the game proved a good indi cation of what was to come. Charlie Justice pulled down Bonk from behind on the Caro lina 10 to check the Terrapins temporarily. Three plays later Johnny Idzik plunged over the goal. Maryland continued to dominate play in the first quar ter until Vic Turyn attempted a pass with 5:45" remaining in the quarter. Maceyko leaped high to nab the ball and raced down the right sideline some 40 yards unmolested for a touchdown. Bob Cox, who had a perfect conver sion record of seven for seven, booted the extra point to tie the score at 7-7. That ended the scoring for the first quarter. Roof Caret In The roof caved in on the host club in the second period, how ever. Midway in the quarter Joe Romano fell on the first of two fumbles he recovered during the afternoon on the Maryland 8. Fumbles in the Tar Heel back field lost back to the 18, but on the fourth down Justice stepped back, spotted Ken Powell on the goal and let fly an aerial which See TD BARRAGE, page 3)
