Today For Final Of
By Lew Chapman
The baseWall teams of both North Carolina and West Vir
ginia practically ignored all of the finer points of the sport
yesterday afternoon on Emerson field as both clubs engaged
in a long knock 'cm down and drag 'em out battle before a
largo gathering of amused fans. Somehow the Tar Heels
emerged on top, 15-11.
lioth nines will meet in anoth-
( r fxniijiuon mis aiicrnoon on
exhibition this afternoon
local diamond in the final clash
of a two game scries. Bill Mc
Ginn will take to the hill for
Coach Dunn Hcarn's athletes in
an aternpt to hang another de
feat on the Mountaineers.
Yesterday's was a ragged clash
in the part of both clubs as a
total of 2( runs were scored on
only 1G hits. Nine errors and 21
walks al:-o contributed to the
mass parade around the base
paths. Doc Gaston, the third of three
Tar Heel pitchers tossed into the
fray, gained the nod as pinning
hurler as both starter Lotes
Ilolirns and reliefer Henry
S hacht hod trouble in stifling
the visitors. Gaston twirled the
last four and a third frames of
the two and a half hour seven
and a half inning marathon and
gave up only one safety.
Southpaw P.at Cregan received
the niobt punishment of the pair
of Mountaineer pitchers that
faced the Tar Heels and was
hnnued the defeat although his
reliefer. Charley Bocca. did not
go completely unscathed
Although big Will Hobbs con
nected for single and a triple
in three trips to the plate, Joe
Hiookshire and Skeet Hesmer
shared the local hitting honors
as both connected for their first
home run of the season.
The Tar Heels started the con
test with a bang in the very
first ittnia r. they gave an in
dication Gt things to come by
"coring six big runs.
An infield safety by Joe Eld
r!d.rc started the ball rolling
and then a Mountaineer error
two walks, a wild pitch, Hobb's
single, John Senter's double and
IJrookshire s round-tripper gave
Carolina a comfortable lead
The Tar Heels added three
more in the second on a pair of
West Virginia miscues and
Hobb's booming triple into the
loft field corner.
Tlio visitors struck back in the
third with six runs off Holmes
on only three hits plus a pair
of walks and a Tar Heel error.
The Hcarnmen countered this
with three more of their own in
'ir half of the inning with Jim
Hallou's single driving in two
' f the scores.
Schacht started the fourth for
" Tar Heels but the slim south
paw couldn't find the plate and
lasted only two-thirds of an in
ning and gave up two runs be
fore Gaston took over to finish
V.f contest.
The Carolina nine made it
14 'J in the bottom of the fourth
when Hesmer poled a long drive
out to the Vet's Club in right
cTit"r field that went for an
easy homer. Senter, who was
on the paths by virtue of anoth
er Mountaineer boohle, scored
in front of the Tar Heel secdnd
haseman. I'' c a and Gaston hooked up
in a tight pitcher's battle for
tli'- rrvt of tho gam with West
V iTinia scot im; another pair in
tiic fifth and th Tar Hels ad

Fcrrier Leading
Masters Tourney;
Ward Goes Down
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 7 (P)
Jim Ferrier, .the gimpy-swingirig,
Australian-born San Francisco
professional, stormed into the
lead in the 14th masters golf
tournament today as the weather
became peaceful.
Shooting his second sub-par
round, a five-under 67, on top of
yesterday's 70, Ferrier reached
the halfway mark of the 72-hole
tournament with a total of 137.
That's seven strokes under par
for the testing, 6,900 yard Au
gusta National course.
Putting with remarkable pre
cision and hitting his other shots
well, Ferrier negotiated the first
nine in 33, three under par. And
this time he came back in 34, two
under perfect figures.,
It took Ferrier's remarkable
round to overshadow the score of
32-36 68 by golf's interesting in
valid, Ben Hogan. The little Tex
an, who was near death after an
automobile accident a little over
a year ago, gave evidence that
his comeback will stick.
Hogan, who shot a 73 through
yesterday's chilly, gusty winds,
took over second place with a 36
hole total of 141.
Harvie WardK present Intercol
legiate champion and one of the
top amateurs entered in the tour
ney, found the going rough again
today. Ward could do no better
tfian add a 78 to his 79 yesterday
for a halfway total of 157. -
Skee Riegel of Tulsa, Okla., the
first day leader with 69, has a
wobbly 38-3775 today for 144.

Track Team,
Tigers Meet
Here Today
By Bill Peacock
Carolina and Princeton renew
an old rivalry .this afternoon -at
:30 when the two schools com
pete in a dual track meet on Fet
zer Field.
The meet will throw two well
balanced teams against each other
with close contests expected in
most of the events. Carolina ap
pears to have the advantage in
the field events and the dash,
while the Tigers are expected to
get most of their points in the
sprints, distances, and the mile
relay.
The Tar Heels will probably be
without the services of versatile
Bill Albans, who reported for
spring football practice Wednes
day. However, hehas tentavely
been entered in the broad jump
and the 220 yard low hurdles.
The personal dual between
Carolina's Sam Magill and
Princeton's Dick Snedeker is ex
pected to furnish one of the high
lights of the afternoon. Last
year Magill topped the Tiger star
and set a new record for Caro
lina-Princeton dual meets with
a mark of 9: 38.5. In the Carolina
Relays last week, Snedeker fin
ished ahead of Sam and in Wed
nesday's dual meet with Duke
he won both the mile and the
two mile.
There should be plenty of com
petition in the other flat races
also. The 220 will match Prince
ton's Jim Gorter, Phil Hunger-
ford, and Dorian Fleming against
Dave Willis, Grank Scott, Bill
Crimmins, and Gene Brigham of
Carolina. The 440 will pit Sam
Howell, winner of this event last
year, and Jerry Bentley against
Tar Heels Laddie Terrell, Brig
ham, Clarence McLain, and Jim
Hamrick.
For Carolina in the 880 it will
be Hal Holden, Frank Hooper,
Terrell, and Bob Litton opposite
Duane Seidler, who turned in
winning perfromance against
Duke, and Bob Eby. The mile
run, perhaps the favorite of local
fans, will see Gordon Hamrick,
Gibbon McNeely, and Ed Dixon
matching strides with Al Pittis,
Bob Akely, and Joe Bolster of
the Tigers.
The Tar Heels are expected to
have little trouble in the hurdles
where Bob Morrow, Merl Nor
cross, and perhaps Albans should
win. The javelin, with Bob Kirk
and Skeets Baldwin, the discus,
with Fred Council and Turk Cg
den, and the shot put with Roscoe
Hansen, Ogden, and George Ver
chick seems to be all Carolina. '
Princeton's fine relay team
made up of Akely, Howell,
Crouse, Bentley, and Sparkman
is expected to win this event and
is given a good chance of setting
a new record.
That put him In a tie with Her
schel Spears of Huntsville, Ala.,
who had 70-74.
Jimmy Demaret'- put an even
par 72 on top of yesterday's 70
for a 142 total that was good for
third place and Lawson Little,
the greying Monterey, Calif., vet
eran, followed with 70-73143.
Ferrier, a broad shouldered,
six-foot-four man who won -the
National P. G. A. title in 1947,
has a pronounced dip in his
swing, the result of an Austral
ian football injury when he was
a youngster. Sometimes it leads
him into trouble and it did-on
a few occasions today. On the
400-yard 17th, he hooked his
drive badly find was in two
traps before he blasted about
four feet from the pin .and sank
his putt for a parr.
He was over par once, on the
425-yard 14th, when he three
putted, but that was the only
time his putter failed to get him
out of difficulty.
Hogan sank six putts ranging
from six to 25 feet for successive
birdies on the sixth, seventh,
eighth and ninth holes. He was
going after a birdie again on the
13th,. a 430-yard dogleg affair,
when he went over par the only
time.'
His second ' shot landed in a
deep brook in front of the green
and he had to take the penalty
and drop out. He got that shot
back on the even-longer 15th,
smacking his second shot to the
green and getting down in two
putts.
Netters Sock Williams
For Ninth Win In Row
The local tennis team kept up
its merciless drubbing of North
em opposition here yesterday
with a repeat 14-1 pounding of
Williams College.
The Tar Heels refused to
budge an inch from Thursday's
showing against Williams and
poured out everything they could
throw at the New England net
ters.
It was the ninth straight win
for Coach Kenefild's rapidly im
proving racquetmen over tour
ing Northerners.- The local net
men will face their first match
with Southern competition when
Presbyterian College plays here
Tuesday afternoon.
Charlie Rice, Carolina number
two singles player, suffered his
only defeat so far and the only
Tar Heel loss of the day when
he fell to William's steady-strok
ing number one man, Stu Robin
son. Robinson came from behind
to overtake Rice .after dropping
the first set, 7-5, to the Carolin
ian, and took. the remaining sets,
6-2, 6-4, to win the match.
Clark Taylor played Charlie
Schaaf in the number one singles
match and repeatedly dusted-off
his opponent's baseline with his
pin-point placements. The Caro
lina' captain allowed his oppon
ent only one game in the short
unting, Carson Shine
In Football
The Tar Heel football team
ended the first week of spring
practice with a two hour scrim
mage session in Kenan Stadium
yesterday afternoon.
Plays were run from both the
single wing and the new "A"
formation.
While newly elected captain
Huck Holdash played his usual
outstanding game on defense, his
alternate, Dick Bunting, showed
up well on the offense.
Bunting called plays and set
up the first touchdown of the
afternoon on a forty yard gallop
through the opposition. From the
ten yard line, Joe Orsino, a fresh
man last season, scored on an
end around play.
Another man up from the
frosh ranks, Ernie Liberatti, look
ed good at fullback, fie gained
yardage through the line and
around the ends.
Bud Carson, working from the
tailback spot, was another of the
outstanding performers. He gain

Here Today
"By Art Greenbaum.
The twice-defeated Carolina
lacrosse team will play its fourth
contest in eight days today when
they take the field against a
powerful University" of Delaware
squad at one o'clock. Both aggre
gations have been defeated twice
and have registered one triumph
apiece.
Delaware dropped its first en
counter to a strong Virginia squad
15-9, won its next game with
VMI 11-6, but was defeated by
Duke University yesterday after
noon. The Tar Heels beat Wil
liam and Mary 3-2 for their first
win in two years but were
swamped by Williams 10-0 on .
Tuesday. Combining talents with
the freshmen on Thursday, the
locals were nipped by Lehigh,
6-5.
Walt Ernst, Guy Gooding, and
Dick Pillsbury were outstanding
in Tuesday's contest and should
provide a bright future for the
Tar Heel lacrosse team. The lat
ter tallied twice to lead the scor
ing column while Ernst contrib
uated two valuable goal assists.
Coach Bill Darden's stickmen
will be out to avenge the three
defeats suffered at the hands of
the Delaware crew last season.
The Tar Heels were just begin
ning the, 1949 season and were
flattened by the visitor's on
slaught. The Carolina coach will con
tinue to use a patched up lineup
and will probably make one or
two switches in this afternoon's
game. Hal Taylor, close attack
man, is still favoring a bad ankle
while Ray Swigert who was in
jured in Tuesday's contest will
be out for a week or more.
Andy ' Bell, another injured
midfielder, is on the doubtful list
but will probably be back in the
starting lineup along with John
ny Murchison and Kirk Manning.
Murchison and Jess Greenbaum
tallied their second goals of the
season Tuesday.
The Tar Heels set a new record
in scoring Tuesday by tallying
five goals in one contest. The
locals had not been able to score
more than three points per game
before the "game with Lehigh.

To Play State
North Carolina's frosh tennis
team travels to Raleigh today to
play State in a Big Four fresh
man match.
The yearlings spent most of
this week fighting for upper
berth positions on the team. Mon
day they played the varsity and
although losing, 8-1, gained some
valuable experience.
Del Sylvia and Bill Izlar, num
ber one and two men on the team,
"will start off against state. Bobby
Spencer and Joe Loveland will
probably hold down the number
three and four spots. -With these
boys, plus a well-balanced team
with good reserves, Coach Hughes
Davis expects to continue the Tar
Babies' winning streak of two
matches. Coach Davis remarked
that this year's team is one of
the best freshmen teams that
Carolina has had in the last few
years. .
The rest of today's starters are
Gene Oberdoffer, Ken Pencourt,
Steve Espy, Seymour Bates, and
Joe Freedman,

Sam Sullivan and Dick Wiseman
took a 6-3 victory over Sapp and
Frank Brooks. Sapp's 72 was
