TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1955 'AGE FOUR THI PAILY TAR HEEL m. mm In Knoxville, An Even Break One Tennessee winning string was snapped and another contin ued unbroken Saturday when two Tar Heel athletic teams crossed the Blue Ridge Moutains and invaded the Volunteer state. Th streak that -was brought to rude halt was theVol cross country team's string of four in a row. The UNC harriers took care of that situation in handy fashion, winning 26-29 over the ambitious but untested Tennessee runners. But the all winning Vol football team kept rolling right along, taking a 20-0 decision over the game Tar Heels. It was not an impres sive win for the number three team in the nation, for Coach Jim Ta tum's charges put up a rugged never say die battle that might have payed off with a few breaks. STATISTICS CLOSER THAN FINAL SCORE The final score gave the Vols a three touchdown margin, but the final statistics were much closer. In rushing yardage the two squads were relatively close but the difference in the final outcome comes in the passing yardage figures. The Vols gained 111 yards via the airlanes, while the Tar Heels picked up only 47. Two of these completed passes might have meant the difference between victory and defeat for the Carolinians. The first key play came in the second quarter on the Vol's first touchdown drive. With a fourth and 7 situation on the Carolina 23, Tennessee tailback Al Carter dropped back and fired pass to end Buddy Cruze who snared it on the Tar Heel 10 yard line to make it first and 10. This seemed to break the Tar Heel resistance, for it took the Vols only two plays to score. The second of these all important pass plays came in the closing minutes of the third quarter. The Vols were on the Carolina 44, second down and five to go. Carter once again faded back for a pass, and spotted wingback Bill Anderson in the clear on the 30 yard line. An derson gathered in the perfect flip, shook off several would be tacklers, and rambled down to the 4 yard line where Don Lear stopped him with a flying tackle from behind. Three plays later the score was 13-0. The concluding touchdown was so much icing on the cake for the triumphant Vols. They had consecutive victory number six already tucked away in their hip pockets. . BOTH COACHES SATISFIED Both rival coaches were apparently satisfied with ihe performances of their teams. Carolina coach Tatum called it "the best game we've played this year," while Tennessee head mentor Bowden Wyatt said he was "well pleased." Tatum put his finger on Wally Vale's blocked quick kick early in the game as the turning point. Also the Tar Heel mentor said that j the bobbled second half kickoff was another important factor. Wyatt reserved special praise for his ends and linebackers who played such a big part in stopping the Tar Heel option plays and end sweeps cold. "North Carolina tackles as good as any team we've met this year," said the Tennessee boss "Their quarterback, Dave Reed, oid a great job, and Td sure like to have (Ed) Sutton on my team! That (Wally) Vale's kicking was tops, too," Wyatt continued. AN ALL OUT EFFORT IN A LOSING CAUSE Overall, the Tar Heel performance was certainly, a good one. They played a good sound football game against one of the nation's best teams, and although they came away on the losing end, the phrase ."we might have won" was still in their thoughts. Next week ifs the annual caravan weekend game at Virginia, the week after faltering Notre Dame at South Bend and the con cluding weekend Duke here at Chapel Hill. The season's record now stands at 1-5-1, and chances of sweeping the last three games appear slim indeed. But it could happen. CUFF NOTES Saturday's meet with Carolina was the big one of the year for the Temfessee harriers. The Vols are the class of the Southeastern Conference and would have been a sure bet to wind up unbeaten if they had beaten the Tar Heels. Ed Sutton dominated individual statistics Saturday. The Cullo whee Comet gained 61 yards in 8 carries. Dave Reed picked up 40 in 16 carries while Larry McMullen got 30 in 6 trips before leaving the game iwirh a leg injury. When the Tar Heel's charter plane arrived at Raleigh-Durham Airport Saturday night, the Georgia Tech team was waiting to board the same plane for their homeward flight, to Atlanta. During the gas sing up interval, Tech and Tar Heel players swapped confidences about future opponents. Tech meets Tennessee Saturday in the country's game of the day, while Carolina closes their season against Duke, the team Tech beat over in Durham Saturday. Harriers Go For 7 th Victory At Duke Today Carolina's once beaten cross country squad goes after win number seven of the present cam paign this afternoon in Durham when they go against the Duke University Blue Devils. The meet will get under way at 4 p.m. in Duke Stadium, and will be run over the newly constructed Duke golf course. The finish will also be in the Stadium. Carolina, after losing to Mary land two weeks ago, has come on rapidly in the past few meets and hit a peak last Saturday in their 26-29 win over the previously un beaten Tennessee Volunteers. Other wins have been at the ex pense of Clemson, Virginia, South Carolina and N. C. State. Duke has its strongest team in years, but still is not expected to provide a stiff test for the power full Tar Heels of Coach Dale Ran som. The Blue Devils have also been beaten by Maryland this season. In that meet, Duke ace Bill Hotelling put on a superb showing, finishing in the top five. Pacing the Tar Heels as always in today's meet will be ace .dis tance man Jim Beatty, Beatty is undefeated in cross-country com mm petition this season, having scored wins over such notables as Carl Party of Maryland,' Mike Shea of State (twice), and Ed Murphy of Tennessee. Beatty will receive capable Dacxing irom sucn stalwarts as Everett Whatley and Dave Scur lock, who tied for fourth in the Vol meet; Ben Williams, Perrin Henderson, Marion Griffin, Doug Henderson, Howard Kahn and Alec Coffin. Today's meet is the last reg ularly scheduled dual meet of the season for the Tar Heels. Their next outing will be Nov. 12 when they compete in the State Cham pionships in Raleigh.

BILL DOOGETO W wr-V By Larry Cheek Down in the spacious confines of Woollen Gym, the round balls are bouncing as Carolina's fresh man and varsity basketball teams prepare for the long season ahead. Workouts have been going on since the opening of practice on Oct. 15, and already some startling developments have drawn the at tention of local hardwood enthusi asts. The first surprise, was the announcement that Bob Young and Frank Goodwin had been dis missed from the. team for dis ciplinary reasons. This in itself was enough to dis may any loyal Tar Heel fan. But the real shocker came when it was disclosed that star guard Har vey Salz had been lost to the squad until next year due to "scho lastic difficulties. Salz was the fair haired boy of last year's twice Minor Sports Teams Shoot For League Championships By BILL KING In just a matter of weeks, fall athletics at UNC will become his tory. In view of the fact that the l'octball team has had its troubles against a relatively tough schedu le, some may look upon the period from September 1 and December as a very poor one for Carolina athletics. One need look no father than the records of Carolina's so call ed minor sports to completely de feat this surmise. At least two of Carolina's varsity teams are in an excellent position to finish in first place in the Atlantic Coast Con ference and the work of the fresh- i man atnietics in several sports give signs of good things to come. Coach Marvin Allen's undefeated varsity soccer squad is in a very good position to capture ACC hon ors, but the booters still have a tough road to travel and will have to be up for every game from here out. The booters have a 4-0 record at present and the schedule shows Frosh Football Squad Relaxes After Big Win Yesterday afternoon saw the freshman gridders of UNC taking a much deserved rest after their route of Virginia, Saturday after noon. The squad, which smothered the Virginia yearlings 52-6, ran through limbering-up exercises and participated in light contact work. Saturday's successful head knocking with the Cavalier frosh left the team in high spirits and the upcoming tilt with South Carolina is being looked forward to with optimism. In the process of winning, many new stars were discovered in the Carolina ranks. Notable among these was halfback Ron Hopman who turned in a stellar perform ance.. Hopman scored two touch downs; one on a 25 yard pass play involving quarterback John Cum mings and another on a 20 yard run, doing most of the work him self, save for a few key blocks. Coach Fred Tullai had high praise for his team after the game, especially concerning the good spirit displayed. Tullai said that he believed the score could have run much higher if there had been a special effort to do so. Instead, Coach Tullai chose to let some of his subs gain valuable game experience, as is pointed out in the fact that all the" members of the squad played at least six minutes. The Tar Babies are favored to win against South Carolina, buti there has been no indication that preparations for the tilt have been slackened. tommy crtcnvM y DIG JAY ricHEELYVi amwcmat tOCX'KXl Orchestra r. ran at . - i.- - i beaten freshman team, and seem ed assured of a starting berth on this season's Varsity squad. Some called Salz the second best prospect ever brought to Carolina by genial Frank McGuire. rating him second only to Lennie Rosenbluth. McGuire himself ad mitted the loss of Salz would hurt. "With Salz in there, the defense couldn't have collapsed around Rosenbluth so often. Harvey could have torn a defense that concen trated on Rosenbluth to pieces with his outside shooting. We could have had a great combina tion in the backcourt with Salz and this kid (Stan) Groll." The loss of - Salz, Young and Goodwin leaves the Tar Heels with much less bench strength than had been anticipated. Both Salz and Young had been counted on for extensive duty this season. three conference games left to play. Duke and Virginia are the first two opponents for Coach Al len's club, then comes the really big one Maryland. The Terp Doot- ers are also undefeated and have copped the ACC soccer title 3 straight years.. Although Maryland looms as the "biggest obstacle in the path of an ACC title for the Tar Heels, Duke and Virginia will also prove a de finite threat. The Blue Devils, beat en only by Maryland in conferen oton nrnhahlv nrove ce to be the tougher of the two. , Led by all america speedster Jim Beatty, the Carolina cross country team poses as a definite threat for the conference cross country crown. The harriers have won six and lost only to Maryland this season and are improving with every meet. Coach Dale Ran son has expressed great enthuias im over his team's chances - to bring home the marbles in the ACC championship meet in Charlotts ville, Va. November 19. The Tar Heel harriers unoffic ally won the ACC title last year but the title went to Maryland which won dual-meet honors. This season the title will be decided by the outcome of the ACC meet, not on a dual-meet basis. The harriers only have one re gularly scheduled meet left before running in the state championship in Raleigh November 12th. They meet Duke in Durham this after noon. Tho Carolina freshman football team is one of the high spots of Carolina's fall athletic teams. The Tar Babies dropped a 41-12 decis ion to Wake Forest in the opening game of the season but since that time have run over Maryland, 21-0, WAA Volleyball Results of this week's W.A.A. volleyball place Carr Dorm and Tri Delt in the finals next Thurs day.

They are Rosen bluth, Groll, Tommy Kearns, Tony Radovich, Joe Quigg, Bob Cunning ham, Peter Brennan, Danny Lotz and Bill Hathaway. Radovich, 6-2 guard who was a starter last sea son, will be lost to the squad for the second semester. v Nothing like a starting lineup has been decided upon by Mc Guire. " Since the beginning of practice he has been shifting his personnel and working with dif ferent combinations on all phases of the game in an effort to mould the strongest club possible. Individuals who have been particularly impressive in sessions so 'far include Hathaway, 7 foot sophomore center who is probably the most improved man on the team; Groll, a smooth ball handler and accurate shooter who seems and completely pulverized Virgin ia Saturday, 52-6. Coach Fred Tullai, in his first year with the Tar Babies, has pro duced one of the finest freshman teams that the school has had in years, and the freshman gridders have an array of performers who will be bidding for starting births on next year's varsity squad. Tullai has depth, a great factor in the Tar Babies success thus far The yearling boast a backfield that is easily comparable to any in the Atlantic Coast Conference. This ad- aea 10 uie iaci uiai uie jrcamug have a tremendous line with lots of strength make the Tar Babies a good pick to finish the season without another loss. In cross country, the freshmen are led by undefeated Cowles Liip fert, last year's state high school mile champ from Reynolds High in Winston Salem. The freshman harriers have a 3-3 record and a chance to finish with a winning season against the Duke Blue Imps this afternoon. The frosh will also compete in the state and ACC championship and should be one of the top threats for hon ors in these very important meets. The freshman soccer team also is ahead in the won-lost column with a 2-1 record. The baby boot ers have defeated N. C. State twice for their two victories and have dropped a 2-1 decision to Duke for their only defeat. The frosh will be trying to make it three in a row when they meet State again November 9th in Ra leigh. The freshman harriers close the season against Duke November 15th. Tor Heels Prep For Cavaliers North Carolina's Tar Heels be gan preparation for their Satur day football clash with the Uni versity of Virginia yesterday on muddy Navy Field. The Tar Heels concentrated on an offensive "pattern against Vir ginia defenses in the two-hour drill. The team also spent some time behind the canvas enclosure, working on a defense against the Cavalier attack. The Tar Heels reported in fine shape - after their licking at the hands of Tennessee Saturday. Halfback Larry McMullen, who twisted his ankle against the Vols, Prescription Center i destined for a starting role in his first season as a varsity member; and Kearns, stubby junior guard who seems to have found himself following a dismal sophomore year. Other boys currently working with the varsity are sophomore Gehrman Holland an4 junior Ken Rosemond and Roy Searcy. Cross-country runner Dave Scur lock, a top performer on last year's frosh basketball squad, is occupi ed with the hill and dale sport now, but may join the basketball ers later on. Coach Buck Freeman has pared his freshman squad down to a working nucleus built around five scholarship boys. The five are for wards Lee Shaffer arid York La Rese, center Dick Kepley, and guards Mike Steppe and John Crotty.
