Some thing a little more definite should be known along this line after to day's workouts. Big Jack Moody, wirjner of the high jump at Gainesville last year, will more thaa? likely re- i turn to defend his title. However, he will face some rvery strong competition, much of it coming from team mates Blill Albans and Billy Joyner.

For the mile relay, Ranson will have Laddie Terredl, .Clarence McLain, Stan White, Percy Flow ers, Bill Crimmins and possibly Bob Black available. Black's stat us hinges on his eligibility this quarter. ! For the distance relays the Tar Heels can depend on Sam Magill, Julian MacKenzie, Frank Hooper, Jerry Lewis and Johri Ross in picking a team.

Coach Joe Hilton will accomp any the Tar Heels to the Sun shine state while Ranson will re main in Chapel Hill to make final arrangements for the Carolina re lay meet here on April 2.
