Worth the Price of a Ticket
State College's Wolfpackin' basketball team, bless their
individual little Indiana souls, has provided several verv in-
irrc'vinL! evenings of entertainment the oast few weeks for
Cr.rolina students who otherwise would have had to spend
th" evening at Harry's. Seems like every State home game
r.rts its share of Chapel Hill fans. It's natural for sports
Inns to want to see the best that is offered in their partic
ular area.
This guy Mad Sam Ranzino, who plays for State, has
been the main attraction at the State games. People in Ral-
ci' ti mm, mi inuvii in jinn mai iney almost iorgei about
Charlie Justice for the three months out of the year that
State's peanut vendors are active in the brand new (So new
that it ain't even finished yet) building in which athletic
sports may be held (You can always get around it if you
don't know how to spell it!). As a matter of fact, Mad Sam
sot a new scoring record for the Wolfpack when he gathered
in '.','.) points against Rhode Island State in the Wolfpack
Classic fluring the Christmas holidays. Not only does he
tcore points from every corner of the court, but it is rumor
ed that he's active in classwork at the Raleigh Institution.
Then there're a few other miniature giants who make
the State basketball team worth watching. There's -Dick
(What's Charlie Justice got that I haven't got) Dickey, All
America a couple of times, who looks like a mid-western
Done McKinney; Paul Horvath, Vic Bubas, and several, other
assorted hoopy-eyed students.
Groat is Mister Duke
Rut not too long ago, a host of Carolina students hiked
..' r ) Duke (That other school in Durham) and sat, with
training at their sockets, and watched as Duke staged
Okinawa and damped the Red-clad Warriors on their
; , id Mits as. the contingent of Duke rah rah boys and
j.iris at back and Groated while the aforementioned Groat,
who obviously pos esses considerable basketball talent, held
the Duke team together while they proceeded to make quite
a Case odt of the Wolfpack cause. Trailing by one point af
halftime, the Blue Groats came out on the court, plaved lor
two minutes, went ahead, and then gave the ball to Groat,
who stood at midcourt for what seemed like a minute while
the Wolfpack Wonders wondered what to do in a situation
like that. By pulling the State defenses away from the bas
ket, the Devils managed to sneak through occasionally to
lengthen their lead.
So i twent, with Groat assuming the title of director-actor
in what was billed to be an All-State cast. But State College,
although they lost to the Blue Devils by one lone basket, is
still the best in Dixie and 'Pack promoters should be con
gratulated on getting North Carolina back in the national
basketball picture after the Tar Heels completed their stand
in 1946. State College basketball is doing the same for North
Carolina as Carolina football has done for The Land of The
Long Leaf Pine.
Let Officials Officiate
But amid all the shining lights in Kaleigh there is one
patch of darkness. State College fans have a good basketball
team to holler about and they holler about it. But that ought
to be enough. Evidently it isn't. Seems like the Staters want
to control the officials with irritating boos and bahs. With
the team they've got, they surely don't have to. It's hard to
restrain oneself when an ofhcial obviously makes a baa er
ror, but the State College basketball team certainly must
commit legitimate fouls on occasion. Over there an excellent
play or player by the visiting team is seldom given credit.
It sorta makes you feel not wanted. But they gotta nave op
nonents!
And then there's the Carolina basketball team. Having
, participated in 12 games and having lost two more than
thev have won (mathematics problem: figure out how many
won and how many lost), the Tar Heel squad is just plain
unpredictable. Sometimes they play good (Duke-UNC
game of Dixie Classic) and sometimes they don't (George
1 Washington-UNO. In Hugo Kappler the Tar Heels posess
a potentially excellent basketball player. He was voted on
the All-Tournament team last year and was one oi tne
team's leading scorers. But so far this vear, he hasn't shown
the snark of brilliance exhibited on former occasions. His
best showing to date was in the Hanes Hosiery game when
he scored 14 points. When Kappler gets back in stride, and
can t help gettin the feeling that he will, the lar neeis wu
be a much improved basketball team.
Just Plain Nemo
Red Bennett, who hunts possums on the side, has had a
few good nights always against the toughest opponents.
John Tsantes has been hampered by that nose of his. How
ard Deasv has sporadically made excellent use of his height
and Charlie Thorne is rapidly getting back to his former
self. And Nemo Nearman. Old Nemo, who fitted better into
Coach Tom Scott's style of play than did John Dillon (Who
is now playing with the professional Washington Caps and
wearing jersey number 22) has, despite however- awkward
he looks, continually led the Tar Heels in scoring and to date
has tallied 137 points.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12 OP)
Dixie Colleges rose today in a
seething rebellion that split the
National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation wide open in a fight
over the sanity code.
The Southern, Southeastern
and Southwest Conferences, in
a joint indignation meeting, vot
ed unanimously to stand back
of four Southern institutions
threatened with expulsion be
cause of admitted code viola
tions.
One by one, more than 40 .col
lege representatives stood up
to announce they would vote
"nay" Saturday when the con
vention will be asked to kick out
Virginia, Virginia Tech, Virginia;
Military Academy, The Citadel
and possibly others.
"We must use all our influence
to get out the vote for the Vir
ginians," W. L. (Bill) Alexan
der, athletic director at Georgia
Tech, announced at the joint
meeting. He presided.
There were other quick-breaking
developments of a riotious
day with the nation's college
athletic chieftains:
1. The Citadel announced it
already had quit the NCAA but
planned to join in the fight on
the floor.
2. Virginia announced, through
President Colgate Darden, Jr.,
nrobablv would pull out of
the NCAA also unless the code
changed regardless of the
xpulsion action.
3. A move was started to strip
the NCAA of its governing pow
ers and return to its position of
two years ago as merely a
schedule-making body.
The fireworks started in the
early afternoon when all seven
violators were given the privi-
ege of presenting their cases
before a joint meeting of the
NCAA's executive committee,
council and compliance commit
Virginia's Darden, a former
governor of his state, came to
th,e meeting armed with a
statement proposing an "honest
and workable" code offering
above-board athletic scholar
ships, rigidly administered by
the university.
The present code, adopted
two years ago, restricts grants
in aid to the needy and those of
high scholarship and stipulates
athletes must' work for board
and keep.
When Darden entered the
room of the NCAA's policing
and governing groups he pre
oared to make his long . state
ment.
"We are supposed to probe in
to compliance and opportunities
of compliance and have no juris
diction over recommended
changes," the Virginia president
was told by ur. leio, tne pre
siding officer.
"We have gone over that be
fore," Darden replied and, as
sembling his equipment, departed.

series on the home court of the

The Tar Heels, 11 players
strong, left Chapel Hill yester
day afternoon not knowing ex
actly what they were going to
face, but sure 'that the Hurri
canes would not prove as strong
as the Kentucky Wildcats.
On their last plane trip, Tues

where they received a; thorough
