TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1953 TH8 DAILY TAX HEEL PAG1 THRU UNC baseba CUFF NOTES By BERNIE WEISS During the freshman preliminary game to last Friday night's Duke-UXC clash, I spotted Phil Fox, the veteran releree who Hies all over the East officiating college-and protesional basketball, sitting in the first row of bleachers behind the press table. Fox was just hanging around until the time arrived when he would go below and change into his uniform for another night's work, this time with Arnold Heft. You will recall that Phil was the arbiter who received a so-called "threatening" letter from IaSalle coach Ken Loeff ler a lew weeks back. Loeiiler, in the letter, charged Fox with certain action on the court, especially in one particular State-LaSaHe game, which was unbecoming to officials. So the natural question was put to the genial Washingtonian: "What about that letter?" And he came up with the classic answer, "No com ment. All I know is what I read in the papers." The conversation shifted quickly after this, but it shifted to a subject upon which he was more talkative. The conversation, of course, ran to basketball, and here is what it was all about: Fox would like to see certain revisions in the collegiate game. He predicts it will only be a matter of time before they are adopted. First, he would like to see the foul lanes widened to the same width as the foul shooting circle, as they are in pro ball. This will eliminate much unnecessary roughness under the basket. ITS jSeason Opens With Ga. Tech In Late March Carolina Will Train Four Days At Rollins Beoin Practices N Monday E He would eliminate fouls charged on individual players, and would charge them to the team. After a team commits a specified number of fouls, it would be penalized for each additional free toss for the opposing five. This is also the practice in professional leagues. "In football," said Fox, "a player is not penalized if he is offsides. The team is, penalized. The only time a player is penalized is when he j commits a flagrant foul (ejection from the game). 'I don't see where it helps the game of basketball to force a player to leave the contest after five fouls. He isn't taken out if he scores 2 points. The majority of fouls are not purposeful, anyway," he con tinued. "The fouling player is usually making an honest attempt to get his hands on the ball. If he fouls intentionally, that's a different story, and he could be told to leave the game as is the practice in other sports. Fox pointed out that if these changes were made, there would be less fouling all around because the coach would be forced to teach defense, knowing that too many fouls against his team could lose the game. This system would also eliminate the astronomical scores of today's college games, and would speed up their actual clock times, there being less interruptions. Fox would eliminate the bonus foul rule, put into effect this year. "A player, with the bonus rule, can do as well from the foul line, scor ing two points, as h'e can from the floor on a field goal. The floor should be more rewarding because of the pressure and continuous action." However, he would not want to see the 24-second "must" shoot rule in college games. Having preached this sermon for nigh onto four years, Tox has suggested that many schools give the system a trial in a number of in tramural games. It is worth thinking about much better than many of the other proposals which face the NCAA annually. He knows what he talks about. During the three and a half months of the year when basketball is played, Fox referees an average of six games per week, and this often totals to moFe than 100 games per sea son. He'll be on hand at the Reynolds Coliseum next month for the Atlantic Coast Conference tourney. fc i Unfortunately. Life Magazine picked a bad time to photograph the Tar Keels Fridav evening. Duke soundly thrashed and lookina on were 5,500 fans in person, plus the millions who read Life. T about in the Feb. 28th issue. Life is sending a crew of eight men, including two photographers with countless cameras, on a tour of the south for a pictorial essay on the development of basketball below the Mason-Dixon line. Dave Beit lin, Life's Assistant Sports Editor, headed the group. The Carolina- Duke game was one or nve stop. Beitlin said his crew probably took up to 200 pictures Friday will use less than six. By BOB DILLARD Spring practice sessions for the North Carolina baseball team of ficially get under way on Febru ary 14, culminating in a four-day trip to Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida for the annual Rol lins "College Baseball Week," March 24, 25, and 26. The Tar Heels 1955 schedule op ens on March 24, with a game against Georgia Tech. The team will play three more games in Florida; two with Ohio State and one with Rollins, before returning tc Chapel Hill and the remaining 19 games in the slate. The schedule is as follows: March 25, N. C. State at home; April 1, Maryland at home; April 2, Michi gan State at horn?; April 7, 8, and 9, N. C. Invitational Tournament at Durham; April 13, Wake For est at Wake Forest; April 14, Duke vt Durham; April 16, N. C. State at home; April 19, Wake Forest at Wake Forest; April 22, South Carolina at home; April 23, dem ean at home; April 27, Wake For est at home; April 29, Virginia at Charlottesville; April 30, Mary land at College Park; May 4, Duke at home; May 6, South Carolina at Columbia; May 7, Clemson at Clem- son; May 11, N. C. State at Raleign; May 13, Virginia at home; and May 14, Duke at home. Rabb commented on the ap proaching season, saying that "A great deal depends on young bys of the squad, particularly pitch ers." Rabb also stated that the squad "has potential among the 3'oung pitchers for a good stafl." In other positions, the team has experience and depth, with re-1 turning Iettermen and players up from last year's freshman squud. While Coach Rabb expressed the opinion that the league would be balanced, Wake Forest is gener ally considered to have the b' st term on paper in the conference. Along with last year's starf Lerty Be vis, the Deacons have fine pitrh :ng prospects for the coming sea son. Duke will field a better team than last year, with the added help coming from last years freshmen. N. C. State will also be improved, for the same reasons. Rabb looks to Virginia as one of the most improved squads in the Conference. A good crop of sophomore pitchers, plus some re turnees from last year's squad, could turn the Cavaliers irio championship contenders.

The Cavaliers had the meet won after the 130 pound match by scoring 10 points on two quick falls. However, in his first intercol legiate match of the year, 137 pounder Bob Wagner put up one of the hardest fights of the night before being pinned by Virginia's Young. At the 147-pound class Pete McGehee, undefeated in his first .four matches, lost his first bout to Captain Marston of UVa. Gregorys Star The one-two punch of the Greg ory cousins, Arthur and Miles, was the only highlights for UNC as both scored decisive victories over their opponents. After wrest ling to a draw for the first two periods, Arthur reversed his op ponent and then got two more points to gain a 4-0 decision. In the best match of the night, Miles Gregory won his second victory of the year by pinning Pentritti early in the third period.
