Golf Tourney Sidelights THK SOUTHERN CONFERENCE golf tournament, slated for W.nston-Salc m on Saturday should b? another top-notch SC event. The conference has gained national prestige during recent months (.1 tne ba.is of extraordinary performances by the Tar H-el foot hall team, the N. C. State basketball t?am, the Blue Dolphin swim n,:n; team, the Carolina and Duke track teams', the William and ."lary and Carolina tennis teams, and the Wake Forest baseball team, aiming other top-notch conference outfit j. Saturday's golf tourney will bring an end to one of the hottest and most unpredictable seasons in conference golf history. Wake Forest won the Southern Intercollegiate Tourney in Athens, Ga., a short time ago, but was bounced by a lop-sided 13-9 score when the Tar Heels, who wore also ir. the SIC meet, came back to make up f.r their lackadaisical showing in that event. Then Duke's Dumpy l!;it;ler-eoachcd lilue Devils came along to spoil it for the Tar Heels, dumping thorn, 20-7, earlier in the week. And so the top conference teams move into the Twin City fcr the annual loop turncy this weekend with a bevy of the nation's t ..p collegiate golfers on hand for the affair. Roy McKenzie, Caro lina number two man. and Oliver (Stub) Sapp, Tar Hesl number trrie man, are both from Winston-Salem and will be playing' on a f.. mihar course. Oi l Town Country Club, the site of the event, is .vapp's horn? tours? and the pint-sized Tar Heel par-buster has been .lavin since he was 14. Hot And Bothered A LOT OF FOLKS got just a tad excited a few ciays back when N. C. State was awarded one of the four NCAA tournament sites !oi in xt year's basketball playoffs. Everyone was glad to have a district tourney held in the state, but a few of the less liberal-minded citizen.-, of the state were up in arms asking that no Negro play i is be a!lo-wed to participate in the games to be held at State's Wil i;am N'eal Reynolds. Th- n the ruling crime through from. NCAA headquarters thai inly Southern teams would participate in the Raleigh elimination, tins putting to an end all the fuss and bother. The winner of the evi nt will move into New York's Madison Square Garden to meet the winner of the Northern playoff in a batle for the Eastern Cham li"iihip and the right to meet the winner of the Western finals for' trie National title. I: looks now as if State's Wolfpack might yet meet the powerful Kentucky Wildcats before the end of the next basketball season. Al all cfiv-rts to schedule a regular-season match between the two t'.i s fell through, they will probably be the powers of tho South M.il will likely come tog?ther in the Raleigh finals. 'Just One More' THERE HAS 11EEN no official word on it as yet, but the chances ; .e that Choo Choo Charlie Justice will play "just one more" foot ball tilt before giving up the grid gamo for good. First inkling of the fai-t came out last Saturday after the fifth annual Blue-White game, when the Choo re-stated the fact that he does not intend to play pro football "unless it's the gamo in Chicago this August." The "game in Chicago" will be the College All-Stars vs. the Philadolphia Ea-des in the Chicago Herald-Tribune's annual benefit match. Selections should be announced soon, and it is a good bet that Ja.-! ice's name will be on the list it will give him another chance 'o play ni a game with his contemporary great, Doak Walker. But t, D-.aker will be playing with Justice this time.

C, May 11 iP) The favorites made the scedings look good today as all eight seeded players moved to the quarter-finals of the South ern Conference tennis tourna ment. Top-seeded Clark Taylor of the ynivursity of North Carolina and Duke's Harold Lipton, No. 8 man in the list, each received a first round bye and then brushed aside two foes without the loss of a set. The other six all swept through three opponents and only Tom my Boys, No. 4 from William and Mary, dropped a set. He raced through his first two matches with the loss of only four games, then engaged in a 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 third round tussle with Donald Skakle of North Carolina. William and Mary's Howe At- water, No. 2 seeded player, re ceived a second round scare from North Carolina's Heath Alexand er. The latter led, 5-2, in the first set, but Atwater ran out the next five games for a 7-5 edge and wrapped up the second set and the match, 6-4. Taylor whipped William and Mary's Sam Woods with the loss of only one game and then elim inated Garner Anthony, another William and Mary player, 6-1, 6-4, to uphold' his rank as top seed. against Cobb and Roddey against Lipton. Semi-finals, best-of-five sets, will be played in the afternoon. Singles and doubles will be play ed Saturday. f --f " s tar 11mMI Itf VVTl4 ft-.'-'- T.i.d.-.TjlB..-.,. Atwater, aside from his strug gle with Alexander, won four 3-2 sets to take his other matches from Bob Silkett of Duke and Rob Palmer of Davidson. Iron man o the day was Charles Rice of North Carolina who sped through three .singles victories and teamed with Tay lor to win two doubles matches. Davidson's third ranked Oliver (Bo) Roddev and his teammate jwhit Cobb, ranked seventh, each played four matches. After both had won three singles tests, they moved to the third round doubles with a first bye and second round victory. They are seeded No. 2 back of Taylor and Rice. Tomorrow's singles quarter finals send Taylor against Ted Keesler of Davidson and Boys against Rice in the upper bracket. The lower halij sends Atwater -Track- CLARK TAYLOR . .

Just what lho changes Notre Dame Will Tackle 'Old Timers SOUTH EEND, IND. May 11 (AP) Some 25,000 out-of-season football fans ' will take a look Saturday at the 1950 Notre Dame varsity, called by Coach Frank Leahy the greenest squad he ever had. The occasion will be the annual v arsity-Old Timers battle closing out six weeks of spring practice. Apart from a tribute to Notre Dame's drawing power at the gate even for an intramural game the affair will demonstrate that Leahy's idea of an inexperi-, enced squad corresponds to an admiral's picture of an adequate Navy. The varsity lineup will have a letterman at every position. Leahy probably will start Chet Ostrowski and Jim Mutscheller at ends; Bill -Flynn and Bob Toneff at tackles; Paul Burns and Fred Wallner at guards, and Capt. Jerry Groom at center. - The varsity backf ield will be Pob Williams, the regular quarter back last year; Bill Gay and Bill Barrett at halfbacks, and Jack Landry at fullback. Notre Dame has gone 38 games without defeat for a modern re cord, and Leahy may have some ! basis for doubting that the 1950 ,squad has the individual brilli- ance needed to keep the string go ing. The Irish open their 1950 season here against North Caro lina. The "Old Timers," not avail able next fall, include All Ameri can End Leon Hart, All America Fullback Emil Sitko, Backs Frank Spaniel, Mike Swistiwocz, George J Dickson and Gerry Begley, Tack le Ed Hudak and End Doug Way bright.

Paddy Young and Charlie Fusari will battle ii out in Madison Square Garden tomorrow night in an effort to keep their slim chances alive. The winer of the 10-round Young-Fusari scrap. Graziano. and France s Laurent Daut huille have been named by La motta and the International Boxing Club as likely oppon ents for the Yankee Stadium bout.

Washington field in preparation for its game with Baltimore University sched uled here tomorrow afternoon. Weary and disheartened over their 17-0 defeat at the hands of a powerful Virginia team yes terday, the visitors spent the two-hour session brushing up on their stickwork and getting set for tomorrow's game.

The Tar Heels will he meeting a strong Baltimore team which has won six straight ball games this year, the Bees possess a swift-moving attack which has run roughshod over all opponents. Led by Bobby Hart and Charley Beasley, the Baltimore team will rule as favorites for the contest. Four Tar Heel stickmen are from Maryland and some will be facing former high-school team mates. Lew Strudwiek, Bill Gil more, George Levine, and Art Greenbaum will be playing in j their home stomping grounds and should come up with good per- j formances. The Tar Heel team is staying at j the Emerson Hotel and will re jmain here through Saturday to i see the highly-publicized game between John Hopkins and Navy. Chisox Send D. Wakefield Back To N. Y.
