TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1957 THE DAILY TAR HEEL PACE FOUR p7lNG'S IAORNER By BILL KING DTH Sports Editor Deacons Were Plenty Tough Saturday From the Carolina-Wake Forest game Saturday, this observer feels that there are two points which should be made for the benefit of those who were not on hand, 1-Wakt Forest is a hustling aggregate which aboslutely refuses to give up regardless of the odds against it. 2-Carolina did not play as badly as it might seem and the reason is point number one. The Tar simply encountered a team which had the desire to play its heart out and did exactly that. The Deacons don't know the word quit and that was obvious to the estimated 15.000 fans on hand for the battle. Jim Tatum said after the game that he had never been happier in winning by a touchdown. Rightly so. The Tar Heels should be proud of the victory, for in no other contest this season have they met more determined opposition. The Deacs have certainly won the admiration of Gordon. football fans, writers and coaches, and before this season is over, you look for that intangible quality to be rewarded. Line Looked Good And Cummings Shone Saturday's game cannot be labeled exciting. For the most part, it was a sluggish mid field battle with neither team exhibiting any tremendous offensive power. But it gave the unsung heroes in the front wall n chance to shine. Defensively, both ball clubs showed some very fine prowess. Tatum has pointed to boys like Phil Blazer, Mac Turlington, Stu Pell, Ralph Steele and Ronnie Koes as instrumental figures in the Tar Heels' victory. Buddy Payne played his usually fine game, highlighted by his teriffic catch of Jack Cumming's pass in the end tone for Carolina's first score. Turlington also hauled in a pass which looked almost impossible. As for Cummings, little could be said to overrate the play of thi promising sophomore signalaller from Iwer Morion, Pa. Smiling Jack was the epitome of calmness all afternoon as he directed the ball club with the precision of a veteran. If one single man had to U- given credit for the victory, it would have to be Cummings. IN hx definitely labeled himself a man to be reckoned with in f utu: c competition. Gaca Showed 'Em How To Move A Football There wa another fellow out there Saturdav who showed hi-; ability to play this game of football. His name was (liles Gaca. a hard running fullback who has been riddled with injuries all season. Caca grinded out !H) yards for the Tar Heels and scored their second touchdown C.iles' performance ha probably won him the starting ais:nment aanM Tcnnesec this Saturday. There was, however, something missing in the Carolina attack. It's hard to say just what It could have been the absence of Dave Reed and Leo Russawage. But it must be remembered that halfback Jim Schuler did not play, and hard-charging Don Coker played much less than he has in the past. Add this up, and you might find that missing bit of potency. Wrhaps lh wpalhvr hart a koch! ical to do with thr more or 1"s ".slii.'ish play" which was prevalent throughout some parts of the came. It was n miserable afternoon, nut conducive to good watchinz or good playing. Deacs Have Good Comedy Team Wake Forest Coach Paul Amen called the game a "moral victory for his Deacs.'" at least. The Deacon mentor has done a great deal in keeping up the morale of his ball club through these trying week ends, and he must have received some consolation in his club's per formance against the Tar Heels. Amen, 'Coach of the Year' in the ACC 1956, is one of the most likeable fellows in the coathing ranks. He is a relatively quiet, unassuming person who never gets too excited about anything. He sidekick is a fellow named Floogie Ariel, the Deac trainer and one of the funniest fellows around. The two would make a good comedy team. On hand in the press box was Charlie Carpenter, the fellow who was destined to quarterback the Deacs this year bvit underwent an operation and had to lay out a season. Charlie was doing some spott ing for the press. Did He Score Or Not, Who Knows? Humor has il that one of the refs told one of the Carolina players that fullback Pete Manning did not go over just as the half ended for the Deacon's touchdown. The way we heard it. one ref thought be did and threw up bis hands, the other said he didn't. Doesn't make too much difference now. and besides, it's just a rumor. Jack Cummings was the top kicker for Carolina Saturday, booting the ball five times for 168 yards and a 33.6 average. Don Coker kicked once for 31 yards and Curt Hathaway had one 34 yard Light Work Is Held By Tar Heels Carolina players who participated in the 14-7 victory over Wake Forest last week took it easy today, drill ing in light gear. Other members of the squad had a long session of heavy contact work as the Tar Heels began preparations for the homecoming game with once-beaten Tennessee here Satur day. Center fionnie Koes. who played an outstanding game against the Deacons, was in the infirmary with a sinus infection. There was no word as to when he will be released for practice. Asst. Coaches Pat Preston and Fred Tullai presented a scouting report on Tennessee and defenses were set for the high-powered Vols, who are led bv tailback Bobby " - - " ! " " '-: .-'-ST . i. !. - v i V 1? I WAKE FOREST SIDELITES WF Greek Week Finale, Thanks To Had Miserable Tar Heel Club By ED ROWLAND Duke Faces Tough Tilt ! With Tech DURHAM. X. C. Oct. 23 i.V-Duke j is in for another rough Saturday I this week against Georgia Tech. according to tho scout report given I at Duke's regular Monday press ; luncheon today. i "Just because Georgia Tech isn't ' undefeated when we are playing them this year, doesn't mean they don't .have a great team and that j we can expect to have an easy time i of it." scout Herschel Caldwell told newsmen. "Tech has a very good defensive team and. 1 might add, well-drilled in every respect." Caldwell con tinued. '1 do not think their defense is better than the offense . especial ly their passing attack. " Tech has changed its offensive setup this season and once the team j ets together their boys will run v ith anybody. They have 17 dif ferent formations from which to run. Also, fumbles have hurt them a lot this year." Caldwell, defensive end coach, has been scouting Georgia Tech since 1933. when the Duke-Tech series started. Caldwell has seen the Yellow Jackets go against Au burn, and I,SU this season. Coach Hill Murray added that any time a team goes to Tech's Grant Field to play a game, it's hard to win. "However, we feel we have a jump in preparing for Tech." Mur ray said. "N.C. State runs many plays similar to Tech and we just experienced a hard week in pre paring for State's offense." In speaking of the Duke-State game Saturday, Murray handed out more praise for the Wolfpack. SOPHOMORE STANDOUT North Wilkesboro tackle, Ralph (Heavy Duty) Steele received the praise of Coach Jim Tatum Saturday for his fine performance against the Wake Forest Deacs. Steele took over at tackle for Leo Russavage. Duke Blue Devils Begin Preparations For Tech DURHAM, N. C, Oct. 28 (AP) i "has a typical Tec h team with Carolina paid the Deacs back for a disappointing 6-6 tie in 1956 with a w jn Saturday, but it was a pity not many fans were able to see the game. Bowman Gray Stadium, a horseshoe-shaped concrete affair, holds only 17,000 persons. But the tele vised battle between State and Duke must have drawn many fans in doors, because only some 15,000 persons showed up for the game. And the proverbial "a great time was had by all" does not apply to the occasion. Wake Forest was celebrating Greek Week, with queens, fraternity displays on cam pus, and a big dance. And some half a dozen high school bands were present for half-time activities. But to lose the game caused many good Baptists to drown their sor rows, or something. They didn't yell very much in the second half. Roy Thompson reported in the j Winston-Salem Journal Sunday ; morning that the fraternity display drawing the most comment was in front of the Sigma Phi Epsilon quarters. They had a mannikin lying in a bed wearing a black brassiere. A sign said, "I dreamed I beat Caro lina in my Maidenform Bra." It turned into a nightmare. And on the Carolina side of the stadium fans were subjected to taunts and ridicule from the Wake Forest Deacon. But late in the game he was being cajoled by a Tar Heel holding a shepherd's staff when another Carolina gentleman crept up behind and threw a flying tackle on the Deac. nal fortification is deemed neces sary by a large segment of the population. So said fortification was downed by great gulps. It was a better tackle than some on the playing field. But the two I finally shook hands and parted friends. And throughout the game it rained ; not much, but enough to nuike things miserable. And it was cold. It was the kind of day that inter- ! ..it..

The rx-Tar Heel star was jjreat against New York Sunday, scoring one touchdown. The Redskins have what is perhaps the finest crop of rookie backs in the National Football league. Aside from Sutton, Jim I'odoley. Don Rosseler and Joe Walton are all seeing plenty of action in the nation's capitol. Speaking of Washington, reminds of us the time "way Dack. when" the Washington Senators were having a hard time seeing daylight in the American League. Some ingenious Washington fans erected a big banner out in center field which read: "Washington, first in war, first in peace and last in the American League."
