Football Team Prepares
For Wake Forest Game
By Tom Peacock
Carolina, like Duke, has a quarterback problem.
There are differing opinions concerning the relative importance
of the quarterback in the split-T formation, but it is agreed that the
quarterback is the most important of all positions. While it is con
ceivably possible to teach any smart and talented young back how to
perform adequately at quarter, it is a fact that the teams with better
key men have better records.

Evidently, Carolina hasn't
found a "natural", the young
man with a magic pair of hands
that fakes everybody including
the referees, runs, and passes
well. Rutgers, incidently, must
' have such a performer. He sent
5- his fullback into the line so con
vincingly the referee blew his
whistle to end the play even as
the quarterback was lofting a
touchdown pass down the field.
Ken "Yogi" Keller, the sopho
more back who is compared with
Charlie Justice, has a high opin
ion of a good quarterback, but
says, "Actually, a split-T quarter
back can get by all right if he
can only run the option play.
' The split-T is versatile enough
to take care of itself as long as
your quarterback can run the op
tion play,"
Ken, who earned his nickname
while playing right field for the
Tar Heel baseball team last
spring, believes Lou Britt is a
pretty good quarterback. "Lou
handles the ball well, and this
business about his not being a
good passer is a lot of stuff. Lou
can throw a good pass, either
long or short. Charlie Motta's
all right, too. Charlie is a good
field general."
This department is inclined to
agree with Keller, at least to
the point of saying Britt is a
greatly improved quarterback.
In the past, there have been
many complaints about Carolina
punting on third down in the
' first half, and subscribing to .
the run, pass, kick series
,jr of plays. This coes make for
rather dull football, and though
I have no idea of coach Bar
clay's opinion of the series of
downs ' Britt called when Caro
lina grabbed a 13-0 lead in the
first four minutes of the Wash
ington and Lee game, I love
'em. .
Recalling, Britt threw a 30
yard pass on first down that bare
ly missed being complete, then
ran a wide option to the right,
and passed again. All three were
thrilling, plays, and should the
Tar Heels had gained a first
down, one more play would have
set up W & L's defense per
fectly for a quick opener or trap
through the middle. Should Lou
Britt continue to run his team
, in that fashion, no one will see
a flull Carolina game at any rate.
Charlie Motta also made a good
many friends in the press box
last Saturday. On third down,
eight , yards to go on the Wash
ington and Lee 30-yard line, five
writers turned in their seats and
remarked that this was a perfect
time for the halfback pass that
had done so well against N.C.
State. Lo, Motta lateraled to
Larry Parker who pitched a
touchdown to Connie Gravitte,
thus making the grandstand
quarterbacks smug as Yankee
fans.
As coach Barclay said, we
made a lot of mistakes last Sat
urday, we still haven't played a
real test, and we won't be able
to make the same mistakes
against Wake Forest. Coach Bar
clay pointed out that the team
didn't take advantages of the
opposing school's weaknesses,
and had mental lapses for the
second straignt week.
However, the team caused
W & L to fumble eight times,
and recovered every one plus
three of its own. Even the home
for the aged doesn't fumble
eight times unless someone is
hitting the runners awfullly
hard, and that is just what Caro
lina does. A Tar Heel team
hasn't been ' in as good shape
for a long time. Another thing
that showed great improvement
last week was the gang tackling.
Against' State, five or six Caro
lina players would stand around
and watch one man tackle a
runner who usually squeezed an
extra yard or two. Saturday,
when a General was slowed down,
he was smothered by enought
beef to out weigh an Omaha
steer. Gang tackling is legal, and
is the only way to win the game.
Wake Forest has a fine first
team, but that is as far as it
goes. The Deacs have an excel
lent backfield, led by Bruce Hil
lenbrand, and a stalwart line
led by Bob Bartholomew, and
once that team is out, it should
be Katie bar the door. The de
partment is getting all the
money it can on North Carolina,
even-stephan.
Duke's quarterback problem?
Which one to play.
By John Hussey
Bill Kirkman, injured center for
the Tar Heels, may be back in ac
tion soon. ' Kirkman broke a few !
bones in the back of his left hand
in practice the week before the
opening game and has not seen
action since. Yesterday he ex
changed his large cast for a small
er one and, although it is doubtful,
he may see action against Wake
Forest Saturday.
Kirkman, a six-foot 190 pounder
from Burlington, is the only man
on the injured list at the present
time. A junior, he was playing
first string center at the time of
his injury. He also kicks off for
the Tar Heels. He was replaced in
the opening games by sophomore
Bill Koman and senior- Junior Sea
well. Spirits ran high in the Tar Heel
camp as the cold weather gave an
indication that winter is finally
upon us. tms was quite a cnange
from last week's high tempera
tures.

Barclay ran a scrub team directed
by quarterback Al Long against
alternate lines and backfields. The
tackling was good as Ken Keller,
Ken Yarborough, Will Frye and
Thad Eure were outstanding.
On the other end of the field
the Tar Heels worked on their
pass defense which looked some

and Lee. The Generals completed
a total of ten out of thirteen passes
for 121 yards. Doug Farmer,
freshman quarterback, did the

only one. This will be the third

Carolina Cross Country Team Has Time Trials
In Preparation For The Opener With Richmond
The Carolina cross-country team,
in preparation for its season's
opener with Richmond on October
17, held its first time trials Mon
day afternoon. Bob Barden turned
in the fastest time on the 3 710
mile course with 21.30. :
Right behind Barden, was Jim
my Beatley, a freshman, who ran
the distance in 21.32. Tony Hough
ton, Boyd Newman, Lee Bostian,
Pete McGehee and Bill Lifquist
all toured the track' in less than
24 seconds.
Coach Dale Ransom also had
praise for Marion Griffin, a fresh
man; Albeert Marx, Ed Vogel,
Scott Hester, Captain Bill Higgins,
Don Wright, Fred Price, Tom
Norman, Don Warren; and a cou
ple of transfer students, Billy
Moore and Ed Joyner.
Another time trial is slated for
this week-end.
According to Ransom, the fresh
man team has some good pros
pects, but is in need of some ex
perienced runners. Only three
members of the frosh squad have
had previous track experience.
Besides Beatty and Griffin, who
turned in exceptionally good time
trials, Dick Mac Faddin has had
some experience. Ransom has is
sued a call for all freshman with
previous running know-how, in
any event from the 440 to the
cross country, to see him soon.
The varsity schedule features
meets with three Atlantic Coast
Conference schools; Duke, North
Carolina State and Maryland. The
Big Five Meet will take place in
Raleigh on November 16 with only
four Schools participating. They
are: Carolina, Duke, State and Da
vidson. The frosh squad has seven
meets scheduled.
