SUNDAY, APRIL 6, 1952 PAGE FOUR if OF '--7 V---: iX-fl o - woe 5 1 i ! 5 : if.: i S M ! , UNCMj a sees 10 Hits As Pazdan Wins by Frank Allsion, Jr. Carolina broke out of a pro longed hitting slump yesterday afternoon to chalk up a 6-2 base ball win over the University of Pennsylvania before a sparse and chilled crowd in Emerson Sta dium. Joe Pazdan went all the way on the mound for the Tar Heels, giving up eight hits, but scatter ing' them effectively. The win, Carolina's eighth, was Pazdan's fifth. The stock Newark, N. J., righthander now leads the Big Four pitchers with a 5-0 record. Wayne White, -Tom Stevens and Bruce Holt each colleoted two hits for the Tar Heels in two trips to the plate, to lead the : 10-hit Carolina attack. Prior to today Carolina has been averaging slightly better than five hits per ' game. Break Open Game The Tar Heels broke the game open in the third inning with four big runs. Dick Wiess started off the inning with a single, stole second, and rode home on Skeet Hesmer's grounder which Penn shortstop Gene Sattler booted. Successive singles by White, Stevens and Holt accounted for the other three Carolina runs in the third. Pazdan was only in trouble in the seventh when the Quakers bunched four hits for their two tallies. Carolina came back, how ever, with a pair in the last half of the seventh. Successive hits by White, Stevens and Ben Smith loaded the bases. While. Wiess Score -White scored on a wild pitch and Reeves walked to load the bases once again. A walk to Wiess forced the final run of the afternoon across. Tar Heel coaches Bunn Hearn and Walt Rabb played the second infield with Harry Lloyd making his first home appearance, at shortstop. He led off ' the Tar Heel first with a single and made several good plays afield. Ben Smith was the only Tar Heel substitute in yesterday's game. Offo Graham Teaching $ -Formation o ffense n Same Field He Lear ne - ! ! - V - ' by Ed Siarnes Otto Graham, quarterback of the Cleveland Browns and considered by many to be the top quarterback in the pro game, returned to Chapel Hill this week With a mission" to help the Caro lina coaches m'ake the switch from the single wing to the T-formation. It was on Navy Field, where Graham is now working with the Tar Heel backs, that he first learned the intricacies of quarterbacking the T. A college graduate, fresh out of Northwestern where he was an All-American tailback in the single wing, Graham learned the quarter backing job from books and work while a member of the Carolina Pre Flight School in 1945. Glen Killinger, then coach of the pre-flight team, had never had any experience with the T. Graham had to learn what he could on his own and his success was great as the Cloudbusters became one of the top service teams of the nation. Discussing Carolina's switch to the T Graham said, "I think the move will come off very well. The team looks pretty good and the quarter,- ' ' backs are all doing well handling the ball. Of course some of the boys are better passers than, others, and the taller boys are better suited than the short ones." "Height is. important to a quarterback; six feet should be sufficient for a boy." Two Sport All-American The very personable and handsome Graham was an outstanding athlete at Northwestern. He won All-America honors in both football and basketball and played two years of baseball, alternating at third base and the outfield. Ac tually Graham didn't enter the EvanstonJ- 111., school to play football. He received a basket ball scholarship and didn't even go out for football his freshman year. 1 "A good quarterback should be able to play basketball," Graham said. "The pivoting spin ning, and fast handwork helped me a lot when I went out for the team." After graduation he came directly to the Navy Cadet school here at Carolina. He left here in February, 1945, and after moving, about' the country he ended up at Glenview, 111., where the Cleveland Browns signed him to a contract. It was one of the wisest moves the Browns made, for Graham has been the spark that car ried the team to four championships in four years of the now defunct All-American Con ference, and one championship in two tries in the National Football League. The Browns reached the championship game this year only to lose to the Los Angeles Rams. Asked what he thought about Bob Waterfield, the quarterback of the Rams, he answered laughingly, "I think more of his ' wife (Jane Russell). Seriously Bob is . a great quarterback; they're all good, you have to be good to be in the pros." . The question of college football as compared . to the pro brand was brought up. "College ball is rougher than the professional type," Graham - said. "Up there (in the pros) you play .for a living and you know most of , i the opponents personally. Also you - ; play the same team more -than once . a season while college teams "meet " "" only once and the college boys can afford to play mean." Confronted with Army coach Earl Blaik's statement that 'a good college team could beat a good pro team' Graham said simply, "It's full of mud. Anyone with common sense will tell you that the pro team would win the majority 6f the time." Browns Highly Spirited ' Another aspect of the college-pro question was spirit and Graham had definite idea's on the question. "The spirit of the Brown's is greater than college teams. We've had boys come up from Notre Dame and other big schools and tell us that the Brown's spirit is greater. Contrary to popular belief the fellows play f or the love of the game. Of course they do it for a living, but I've seen many pro players who have made a costly mistake sit on a bench in the locker room and cry their eyes out for 10 minutes."

NAME ADDRESS Golfers Open Tough Week n n a E n m with v irginia by Biff 'Roberts Four matches in a Week's time with some of the toughest teams in the country is .a poisonous diet but that's exactly what Caro lina's golf team will have to di gest this . coming week if it ex pects 4o keep an undefeated flavor to its present string of four vic tories. , Virginia starts the invasion on the University's Finley Golf Course tomorrow at 1:30 arid in rapid fire order follow Michigan on Wednesday, Ohio University on Friday, and Purdue on Sat urday. Langley has been the par buster thus far and it is conceivable that Coach Erickson might shove him up to the top position. Unfortunat ely this would envolve breaking up the twosomes which, -in play ing together, have done so well this far. Langley is averaging one point below 70 for the first four matches which is a little better than two strokes under par for each 18. WE HAVE JUST RECENTLY HAD OUR FORMAL OPENING and Would like to thank you for coming by. If you have n't had the opportunity to come by yet, we would like to invite you now to come in and see our wide selec tion of Nationally Adver tised Brand Clothes for your EASTER and Spring time wear.
