The genial Mr. McGuire is coach of the nation's number one basketball team, and his problem is how to keep his Tar Heels un- -defeated and on top of the collegiate cage heap. , Every team on Carolina's schedule from here on out would, be eager to become the first to burst the Tar Heel victory bubble, and Coach McGuire is faced with the difficult task of keying his squad up for every game. UNC Quint Seeks Win Number 17 By LARRY CHEEK Powerful North Carolina, the nation's best basketball team ac cording to popular concensus of opinion, steps into the lion's lair up at College Park, Md. tonight to do battle with Coach Bud Milli kan's Maryland Terps in an ACC headliner that could assume na tional significance. A ate -3 t The long road from a 16-0 record to the NCAA title begins to night in College Park, Md., and ends nobody knows where. Perhaps in the first game of the ACC tournament, or maybe in! the last game of the NCAA championship playoffs. But the first obstacle to be hurdled is a dangerous University of Maryland team, a team that has become something of a terror on then home court where they meet the Tar Heels tonight. The Terps have disposed of Wake Forest, $tate and Duke in convincing fashion on their own floor, and this home court advantage could play a big in determining the outcome of tonight's game. The Tar Heels are supposedly weaker with Bill Hathaway and Tony Radovich gone. But we don't see any reason why this should necessarily be the case. Hathaway, although he started a number of games, was never any valuable asset, and Radovich should be quite adequately replaced by sophomore Stan Groll.

The game will be piped back to North Carolina via radio station WPTF in Raleigh with Jim Reid handling the play by play. The contest is a crucial one for both contending parties.

McGUIRE S GREATEST TEAM North Carolina basketball coach Frank McGuire had many great teams while coaching at St. John's in Brooklyn, but the Tar Heel coach says his 1956-57 team is the best he's ever coached.

UNC soph guard On The Underground Railroad The recent article in Sports Illustrated on basketball's "under- ground railroad" has been blasted from all sides by N.

We got quite a kick out of it, and early decision to South Carolina 1 in Columbia and last week suffer I ed a 72-60 drubbing at the hands I of Duke in Durham. But their record at home ! against Big Four opposition is enough even to make the nation s number one team shudder. The Terps, playing efficient, posses sion basketball, have romped over Wake Forest, State and Duke with effortless eae on their home floor, and they need only to add Carolina to make it a perfect sweep.

It is rather a colorful story of modern day basketball recruiting and the men who work behind the scenes. The men described in the story live and breathe the game of basketball, and the only reward they receive is the satisfaction of landing a good prospect for the school they represent. Most of thee men have large private incomes, and can afford to deal in the basket ball manpower market without thought of monetary consideration. It's a cutthroat business, a business in which Frank McGuire and his aides are remarkably proficient. Witness Carolina's number one ranking. But basically it is an honest business with friends, connec tions and all round know-how meaning more than cash on the barrel head offers.

Wayne Bishop, soph distance runner who was sidelined with a knee injury during coss-country season, turned in a blazing per formance to take second place close behind Dave Pitkethley of Richmond in the two mile run. The sprint medley relay team com posed of John Fox, Jim Moss, Dick McFadden and Dave Scurlock also took second behind the . winning Maryland quartet. All-American Jim Beatty, who had been scheduled to run in the Boston AA meet, did not make the trip but remained in Chapel ISill due to pressing academy duties. The track squad will travel to Raleigh's State Fair Cow Palace, scene of htis year's ACC indoor games, for a practice meet Satur day at 2 p.m. with N.C. State.

Tabori runs about 40 miles every day. warmup period since the exam break while the Tar Heels have' j seen action only once. The Terps ! were unimpressive in losing to j Duke on their ' first outing, but j Saturday night they ran away from ! Ceorge Washington, 84-57. Caro j lina ran through what was little I more than a scrimmage session last Wednesday night in Cullo wee, beating Western Carolina, 77-59. ' This semesters' UNC squad is I not quite the same as the one fielded by Coach McGuire during j the fall session, although it should i pack the same knockout punch, j Bill Hathaway and Tony Radovich, ! two frontline reserves, are now among the departed, and big Bob Young, a 6-6 senior, was dismiss ed by McGuire before the season for disciplinary reasons, but was reinstated Sunday. Stan Groll and Danny Lotz are also expected to see a good deal of action in tonight's game and through the remainder of tne season. With Radovich gone, Groll now is the number one replace ment at guard. Despite all the shifts, the start ing lineup remains the same. Heading the list is senior sharp shooter Lennie Rosenbluth, while providing the supporting cast are Pete Brennan, Joe Quigg, Tommy Kearns and Bob Cunningham, all juniors. Maryland will put on display a well balanced scoring punch built around forward Bob O'Brien. Others in the starting lineup will be Perry Moore at center, John Nacincik at the other forward, and Nick Davis and Jim Halleck at guards. A loss tonight, or any night from here on out for that matter, would almost surely knock the Tar Heels from their exalted post as the number one team in the country. Kansas, their closest pur suers, whipped Iowa State in a revenge win Saturday night, and stands ready to move in should the Tar Heels falter. By HUGH FULLERTON JR. The Associated Press It's North Carolina "all the way again in the weekly college basket ball ratings, but Kansas refuses to Wilt. Wilt The Stilt, that is. Wake Forest is 10th and West Virginia is 11th. Due largely to Wilt Chamber lain's invaluable contributions, ' Kansas' victory over Iowa State last week made a stronger im- j pression on the voters than North Carolina's easy decision over little Western Carolina. It wasn't enough to! shake North Carolina's hold on first place in the Associated Press poll of sports writers and broad casters, but the Jayhawks picked up enough points to make the race closer. THE NEW YORK LIKE AGENT ON YOUR CAMPUS IS A GOOD MAN TO KNOW George L Coxhead 'UNC, 42 A Mutual Company Campus Representative Founded 1845 Out of 92 experts voting in the ninth weekly poll of the 1956-57 college season, 53 listed North Carolina's Tar Heels on top and 22 voted Kansas first. That was a gain in first for Kansas and a loss for North Carolina, but both re corded higher point totals than last week, due to a heavier vote." j On the basis of 10 points for each ' first place vote, nine for second, etc., Carolina tallied 871 points and Kansas 773. Each won one game during the week which ended with last Saturday's games. North Caro lina walloped Western Carolina 77 54 for its 16th straight victory. Kansas, beaten only by Iowa State this season, did a fair job of wip ing out that defeat by trimming the Cyclones 75-64 as seven-footer Chamberlain scored 19 points and grabbed 24 rebounds. Louisville's loss to Memphis State, Illinois' defeat by Purdue, and Iowa State's setback resulted in another fast shuffle among the other teams in the first 10. Kentucky, winning three games in easy fashion, inherited third place from Louisville. 1 bi WARNER BROS. , HENRY FONDA VERA MILES in ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S The Wholesalers Did It!
