FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1951 THE DAILY TAR HEEL PAGE SEVER I JJL- k ;v3c-: By Bill Peacock 0 "v. Cdro. 1 ' i ' : : 1 " ' i ' - ; - Things Are Looking Up THE FOOTBALL PICTURE IS brighter "now than it has been for any time in the past, two years, but tomorrow the Tar Heels will play a team of Deamon Deacons who. are in no mood to add luster to the Carolina name. Wake Forest has received little national re cognition for the past six years, yet they have had tough, well coached teams that have held the more-publicized Carolina teams to an even break. ' Wake Forest has a new - coach, Tom Rogers, the man who turned out the sturdy lines under his predecessor, Peahead Walker, but they have almost the same team which knocked-off Carolina, 13-7, with a last-second touchdown pass. Dickie Davis, the slender clutch passer who tossed for the winning score last year will; be back, but he might not even start.- , --. Ed Kissell, a senior from Nashua, N. H., has been "the starting quarterback in the Deac T-fdrmation this year, but Davis remains as the "fireman" who pulls the game out. Wake Forest trailed George Washington 13-0 at the half last Friday,, with the Colonials - stopping Kissell cold. Davis went in and completed eight of nine passes, three of them for touchdowns, and the Deacs revived to win, 27-13. Don't Forget Sea rtori, Miller WAKE FOREST HAS MADE 12 touchdowns passing and only six on the ground, but they have some of the finest running backs in the conference. Guido Scarton, a 162-pbund break-away back at right half, is 10th in conference rushing with 316 yards in 56 rushes for -an average of 5.6 yards per gain. This puts him well ahead of Dick Wiess, who leads .the Carolina backs with 233 yards. Bruce Hillenbrand, a sophomore from Arlington, Va., runs from left half and is pushing Scarton with a 5.5 yard average. But the man who could really put the punch in the Wake Forest ground game is Fullback Bill Miller, a 205-pound powerhouse who has been barly slowed this year due to injuries. Joe Koch hasbeen A an acceptable replacement, but he can't run the way Miller can. He played very little last week, and the Wake Forest coaching staff hope they can have him ready for play this week. t Carolina Will Be Favored CAROLINA WILL BE FAVORED by about a touchdown after its good game against Maryland, while Wake Forest did rather poorly against GW. Most observers feel that the Tar Heels have found themselves and it's true that the performance has given the team a new confidence. . . The Tar Heels seem to have wonderful depth in their sophomores and freshmen. Each "game has revealed a new star and its unusual that in five games, four different backs have led in most yards gained. So well have the backs performed on different occasions that there is great confusion Over the starting roles. This situation finds the tailback position with four men fighting for the job. The Carolina strength lies with the less experienced members of the team who may be real stars one week and make costly errors the next.

Returning to the Deacon line-up will be Dickie Davis, fine passing quarterback, Guido Scarton, Bill George and others. George was one of the tackles on the 1949 All-Southern Confer ence . team, and Bill Miller, re turning fullback, was on last year's conference .team. Miller has been plagued with injuries all year and is a doubtful starter against the Tar Heels. The Tar Heels went through a light work-out yesterday in pre paration for the contest. Coach Carl Snavely worked his charges hard in a three-hour scrimmage Wednesday, with Wingbaqks Bob Gantt and Bud Wallace and Tail backs Larry Parker, Billy Will iams and Louis Britt putting in excellent, performances. v The Deacons have a 4-1 record this year, their only loss being a 7-6 upset by Willi am, and Mary, They have scored at least 20 points in the rest of their games, and have beaten N. C. State, Bos ton College, Richmond U., and George Washington. Both teams should reach the peak of their performance in to morrow's game, the Tar- Heels looking much better after a slow start, while the Deacs have play ed good ball all season. BucJ Wallace, junior - fullback from Kinston, was Carolina's leading scorer last season. He scored five touchdows for thirty points. fit ! I . 7 - : . ... ; , k v.v' :;; .v W H H ED KISSELL.
