everything. Albans could have at least been up in the stands selline

The 1949 edition of Coach Bunn
Hearn's University of North Car
olina Tar Heel baseballers will
make their season debut at Gain
esville, Florida March 18 with
the University of Florida.
The Tar Heels, Southern Con
ference and Big Four champions
and District Four title holders
last year, will carry a squad of
some twenty-odd players on the
Southern "spring training" jaunt,
according to Coaches Hearn and
Walt Rabb.
The squad will leave Raleigh
next Wednesday night by train
and will arrive in Gainesville
at ten a. m. the next morning.
While at Gainesville the Tar Heels
will be quartered at the White

to the delight of some who like track and the dislike of some who
don't like centers of attraction. He could outrun and outjump almost
everybody in the place, and on the side, had almost everybody on

The sad thing about Mr. A.'s five first places was that probably
none of them was even his top performance. In the high jump, he
stopped jumping after setting a new record to save time and energy
for other endeavors. The rest of his showings were possibly also
thusly handicapped and at the finish the weight of awards already
won was getting to be -a tiring load to carry. The record books
turn over in their bookcases at the thought of an Albans crack at
each individual mark.

And have your barber give you professional applications.
