ITS - j . 11 i - ... "Oklahoma auu. me luucuuuwn iud. " written by, Paul Gardner, a pun-happy sort of guy, the article purported to be an explanation rather than an expose of the Oklahoma grid setup. ; Gardner teus me wnoie sxory ot how a third-rate outfit rocket :' ed to the football heights in a; few short years at the rate of approx imately one coach and a few paltry thousand bucks per annum Jts all very interesting, particularly in the light of the current ; Vumpus being kicked up in Charlottesville, Va., over the non compliance of the University of Virginia with the NCAA's tooth " Jess, useless Sanity Code. Then, too, I remember a recent article in Life magazine that slapped at Carolina and a number of other high-ranking colleges with f air-to-middlin' football teams. One of the first things cited in Gardner's story is the Sooner's lavish Touchdown Club which seems to buy scores at fancy rates. The article in True; if it's true, says, "Oklahoma has a cushy ad vantage going for it which most colleges would give their phil :Vphy departments, with the dean of women thrown in, to own. , -Jt hlS 700 millionaires all of them rounding up top talent and de- uvering same to the campus in Norman." Speaking of "Squatters Rights" t THE STORY SAYS THAT the Sooner sponsors claim only Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle as their territory and this .they try to keep all to themselves. When the 0tlahomans were ;. talking turkey with Sugar Bowl , itn lsu m January, it was made J fhletic director, that the Sooners jforfia and the Texas Panhandle. Oown in writing that he would .jvea it' the Soonsrs agreed to meet LSU so says True. Gardner mentions in his article that Coach Bud Wilkinson jfind his keen-eyed scouting crew disposal "which flies a steady shuttle service between Norman and . "jutlying points, picking up good-looking high school boys who will Jook even better in Oklahoma uniforms." Nice work if you can get it. t The True story cites a couple of interesting incidents concern ing Oklahoma and its method of recruiting football beef. Lindy Pearson, one of Oklahoma City's finest halfbacks, decided to enter ijche University of Arkansas back in 1947. The Touchdown Club 7G0 millionaires strong was a little peeved about the whole thing, md decided that the hard-running youngster should remain in his native state to display his football talents. Arkansas had come -across with a new car and a "loan" for Pearson and he seemed to f he doing very well until an overpowering case of homesickness Overtook him. i f He returned to Oklahoma and, of course, decided to enter --). U. to continue his search for higher education or wages. The y-tth-y goes that the TD Club paid back the "loan" and likewise re iAbursed the Razbrbacks for the auto. Pearson, in return, played three years o'f great football for the Sooners- and everybody with Vii : i. l a : . r A t ..11.1.1: r ' i l tiie possiuit; exceuuuii ui .iKaiisas uuueue omciais was very nap py about the whole thing. Okies Miss TPIE SOONERS DON'T GET all the high school hotshots from their "area," however. Gardner cites the case of Byron Townsend, a product of Odessa, Texas, as proof -of this. The Okies, a legion representing Notre Dame, and a number of other interested schools chased down Texas way to chat with the Townsend youngster, who has been described as a small-sized mountain. Blair Cherry and his Longhorn sidekicks finally managed to lure the lad into the University of Texas camp, however. Gardner , says Hhat it was later revealed by "a half-dozen sources close to the Oklahoma situation" that Townsend was offered: "A Cadillac con vertible, $170 a month above room and board, and $5000, when he "i. graduated." All of which is a tidy little item for a growing youngster , io have in the bank and in the garage. ' It's all very interesting, but there's too much to go into here.

A Carolina . freshman soccer team improved over; ; the one which lost to the Duke ; freshmen last week ljattled hard in the second half yesterday to over come a 4-0 deficit handed them by the N. C. State freshmen only to bow, 4-2 in an exciting game played on Fetzer Field. Inside Left Drew Patterson took a pass from Bob Moore early in the third quarter to make the first score for the freshmen this year. Seven minutes later Bill Moss took the ball alone down the field from his outside left pos ition to score on a high shot that went over the goalie's outstretch ed hands. State jumped to a quick lead with three goals in the first quarter,- and picked up one more in the second period to about sew up the ball game. However, the Tar Babies looked much better in the second half and were definitely in the game in the final period when both teams were shooting madly in order to win the contest. Ed Gross, Carolina goalie, stood out for the Tar Babies with many great saves in the waning minutes of the game, enabling them to stay in the game. The next game for the Carolina freshmen will be a return match with the Duke frosh booters on Monday, Oct. 30. W&M Tickets The Athletic Ticket Office announced yesterday that over 12,000 seals are still available for the William and Mary game. Tickets are obtainable for both end zones, corner sections, and some very good seats in the up per level main stands.

Let us service your car with top-flight TEXACO Products University Service Station -.; 1 ' , ; . , Glamack Says That Attitude Is Important In Pro Basketball . . By Paul Barwick ' Not too many years back professional basketball did not exist in the United States, or the. world for that matter. Today, however, big time basketball is one of the major sports in the line of drawing cards and big business. "" .' ' . George Glamack,' one of the greatest basketball players of all time and president of the Grand Rapids, Mich., 'Hornets, -should know a little about the profes sional setup of today. Glamack; who is back , at Caro lina .now with his pro cage sounded off yesterday about the game. The following is an inform al account of ' what the "Blind Bomber" had to say. When a fellow gets out, of col lege and decides to make basket ball his life work, he has a great deal of things to take into con sideration. Basketball of today has become a big man's game, which ,is not good. There are several good small basketball players, but they have two strikes against them when they try to go pro. However, Glamack stated, if a man has the determination to play on the hardwood, he can do it. Ralph (Buckshot) O'Brien, 5'9" guard for the Hornets, is an example of how a short player came through. J - ' Then, too, a player must re member that s he is working ; for a' living in professional basket-1 ball. It is no longer a game in I which mistakes can be over looked. For example, the Hornets will pay 12 players a total salary of approximately $70,000 this year. This does not include the salary of the front office staff, the traveling expenses, adver tising, etc. A lot of planning and details go into the making of a pro bas ketball team. Glamack said, "I have been working on the organi zation of the Hornets four years. With my basketball experience and knowledge of the game, I decided that Grand Rapids was a very good town for professional basketball. It was an idea, but it had to be approached from a business standpoint." Justice run one play for six yards, catch two. passes, return four kicks and make himself useful as a flanker decoy. , Much to the disappointment of the estimated Carolina contingent if some 2,500, Justice spent most of the game sitting on the Red skin bench and running in to re ceive kickoffs after Cardinal scores. But when the Choo Choo was in the game, blue hats bobbed up and Confederate flags waved mad ly in the breeze. The little Caro lina All-America performed like a veteran although he had seen only five days of practice with the Redskins before taking the field at game time-" Sunday. - Charlie provided the crowd ! with one of the best plays of the day when he went downfield under a Harry Gilmer pass and leaped high into the air to snare the ball from the grasps of twc Cardinal defenders. Shortly be fore that Charlie had hauled in another Gilmer aerial for a 27- r J J - v 4 VI? GEORGE GLAMACK . . . talks basketball . . . In regard to the personnel of a basketball team, Glamack says that every player must have a good personality and attitude. Attitude of the individual has a great deal to do with the show ing of the team. "Big George" said, "If 1 had the best basket ball player in the United States and he didn't have good charac ter, . personality, and attitude, he wouldn't be with us." Each fel low must consider himself as part of the whole and as a vital part of a big machined yard gain to the six-yard line. The play set up a third quarter touchdown by Rob Goode in a line buck. Charlie's only running play of the day, came in the second quar ter when he took a pitchout from Gilmer, swept around right end and cut back for a six-yard gain. In the kick returning depart ment, Charlie hauled back three kickoffs from his deep back pis ition f of a total return of 44 yards, his longest gain being 27 yards. He also returned one punt for six yards. Although Charlie's professional lebut. was termed a success, the loss by Washington .all. but mathe natically eliminated the 'Skins "rom ' the 'American Conference title race. The loss was Washing ton's fourth in five league starts. You'd Be Happy Too with a new record player or combination in your room Come up to the Carolina Sport Shop and see their latest models RCA.

The Carolina East Franklin St. Tar Heels Take Honors In Lacrosse One of Carolina's newest var sity sports, lacrosse,' gained great ly in prestige last week with the announcement that two Tar Heels had been named to the list of All Americas.

Lynch, 1950 captain, played de fense for the local stickmen while Sowell will captain the '51 con tingent from the goal position. Both players were also named to the "Dixie League" lacrosse team which is composed of players from seven schools in Virginia and North Carolina.
