Daily Tar Heel Sports Page 5 Wednesday, Sept. 20, 19G1 I: I I r-- 1 t I 2L Z I HARRY W. LLOYD THE SPORTS 111 U 1 The All-America Pitch MaryanA sports 'ptfMTeist Ji6 Blair IcfJdws tffiat it takes to -get All-America recognition for one of "his "boys. The drum beater for the Terrapins hsfs hung the red flag on end Gary Collins, and if 'Blair's blueprints run true to form, Collins will be inchiaea in all of the lists of leading players when the season comes to a close. A color photo on the cover of the 19C1 Maryland "50-Yard Line." the school's football brochttri. . depicts . a Jreckle;f peed. bcty, with Somewhat tousled hair, squinting up from his posi tion before the football stands in the College Park Stadium. He is wearing a bright red football Jersey. In bold type in the upper right-band corner reads "Gary Collins, ATI-America Candidate." The first six pages of the book are devoted to telling Col lins football history in flowery prose, quoting some coaches to the same effect, and listing all of his honors, records, and "possible records." . The statistics on Collins are factual, the . quotes by the coaches are probably authentic, and the story may be only a bit overwritten. Brit : Collins isn't an All-America yet. He hasn't played in a smgte game this season. However, this last fact always seems to be overlooked. All-America players are osoally made before the season begins. The publicist who can do the best selling job usually comes home with the trophy. About the only thing that can ruin the deal is a losing season, in which case another candi date, on a winning team, has the best chance. An All-America position has come to mean more than a top-ten finish at many schools. The only problem is that there are a lot more candidates floating around than there are posi tions for them. True, there are scores of All-Ameica teams, and since they don't always agree, there are usually some 40 to 50 All-Americas in a season. Still, some candidates fall by the way side, tkereby playing a full season without gaining the ultimate honor. There can only be one solution. All of the major football teams in the country must be placed on a priority list. When a given amount of time passes, then a college will be given th privilege of placing the player of its choice on the All-America team. Under this system, each school should have one bona-fide All-American about every twelve years. Then it would be up to the players to decide who should get the honor. A lot of problems would be solved by this system. The sportswriters would be spared the chore of reading through" mounds of propaganda material. The players would be spared the embarrassment of a letdown by not making the team. And maybe there would be pictures of the cheerleaders on the covers of the pre-season brochures. Intramurals Need You The Intramural season will be underway soon. . ? At Carolina, students have the benefit of -one of the best intramural programs in the country. The schedule is complete with sports of every kind all through the year. Only one thing keeps the program from perfection. That is student participation. If there is no one to compete, then a lot of time and effort is wasted. So far, the program has not been badly hurt because 3f lack of participation. But several students have missed the fun and enjoyment that they might have gained in taking, part. In the past, some team managers have been somewhat apathetic towards the -program. In their laxity, many individuals did not get the opportunity to participate, sometimes because the team was never organized or interest was not given a chance to build. We would urge every well-bodied student on campus to take advantage of some phase of the fine intramural program. You can find the time somewhere and it will be well spent. Bow 6n 9 Arrow Shoot To Be Staged Here Iffttaelk Mat a eel Foes The Carolina Open "Archery Tournament will be held in Chap el Hill late this month under the sponsorship bt the UNC outing club. Archers from all over the state are expected to participate in this tournament. S In addition "to the open event, there will be a closed competi tion for university students wbich will run throughout the semester. The scoring will be on a handi cap basis, in Order to allow the less experience! archers to com pete on a level with the veterans. i At different occasions through out the semester, medals will be awarded to individuals with the highest scores to date. The win ner of the overall tourney will receive national recognition. S At its first meeting this year, the Outing Club decided to put more emphasis on archery in the future. Officers elected at the last meeting were President Charlie Blumenthal, Vice-President How ard Lewis, Treasurer Max Toney, and Secretary Louise Barrett. tBaseballers Open Drills 'If the weatherman permits, fall today. The first off season drills baseball practice will begin here begin on Emerson Field at 2 p.m. 'Coach Welter Rabb is interested in seeing all of his returning play ers, plus any transfers and fresh man prospects. Shoald rain halt the practice, then the candidates will meet in 302 Woollen Gym. i Coach Rbb has also asked the candidates for manager-to i report today. i? " Anyone wishing further informa tion about the Outing Club may inquire at the Intramural Offiee 1 years ago, but they still carry a or can S63-9144. Charlie Blumenthal at The Tar Heel football team fin ished in a tie with Wake Fcreit for sixth place in the Atlantic Coast Con reference, with a record 'of two wins and five losses. They dealt the only conference defeat to ACC champion and Cot ton Bowl winner Duke, who was 5-1. Duke was followed in order by N. C. State Maryland; Clem son. South Carolina, UNC, Wake Forest, and Virginia. ; ) Our pre-season look at the con ference race reveals that only two teams have reasonable chan ces of bettering their 1960 finish in the coming campaign. The Tar Heels are one of these team's. ' ' The Daily, Tar Heel is going out onjh limb to predict the finish of tlie' '61 season but with one ex ception. It is not attempting to predict the finish of the UNC team. We will not say that the Carolina team "will finish first. Second, third fourth, or anywhere else. We do concede that the team is capable of finishing anywhere in the top six. But lest our judg ment be dulled by optimism Or pessimism, school pride or fear of being too far wrong, we will not include UNC in our prog nostication. For what it's worth, here is our guess as to the finish of the other seven teams: North Carolina State Duke Maryland Clemson Wake Forest South Carolina Virginia N. C. STATE The Wolfpack is rated best of the seven because it has 'Roman Gabriel, the All America quarterback, plus the nucleus of an outstanding 1960 freshman team. Carson Bosher and Tony Koszarsky, outstanding sophomore prospects, give the Pack a blazing halfback corps. Jim O'Antonio and Roger Moore are topnotch fullbacks. Little 158 pound Bill Kriger and 165-pound Jim Resst will be valuable re placements for Gabriel. In the line, tackle is the strong est spot, followed by guard, end, and center. Coach Earl Edwards will need to find some more pass catching ends to go along with Johnny Morris in order to utilize the throwing arm of Mr. Gabriel to the best advantage. DUKE -The Blue Devils have the best halfback personnel of all the ACC schools, with such ball carriers as Dean Wright, Joel Ar lington, Jack Wilson, Mark Leg gett, and Danny Bridges. They have solid tut hot sparkling fullbacks in Dave Burch and John TinrieTl, arid a lot of raw talent in quarterbacks Walt Rappold and Gil Gamer. Whether or not coach Bill Murray can find a " pass catcher to replace Tee Moorman will make a lot of difference in the attack. The Duke line will de pend more on speed than on weight, as there aren't any. real big men in the forward wall. MARYLAND T h e , Terrapins have some outstanding individ uals, and could pull some real surprises. End Gary Collins has been . touted for AliiAnwtrica. There is both size and speed up front, with tackles Dave Crossan and Roger Sheals. guards Bill Kirchire and Tom Sankovich, and center Bob Hacker. D!ck Novak leads the multiple offense, which works mainly off the T forma tion. Halfback Dennis Condie will be one of the top ball carriers in the ACC. Coach Tom Nugent has switched Joe Hreze, a 180-pound guard, to fullback, hoping to plug this problem pot. -' CLEMSON The Tigers aren't the tellers, that they were a few li ii-mr I - - - - - 1 r " - pretty good punch.

"Coach Bill Hilde brand will depend more on a run ning game, with halfbacks Wins ton Futeh-and Dennie Frederick leading . the- way. Chuck Reiley will take over the quarterbacking chores. They are. weak at-fullback, with Bruce McDonnell the only letterman. Bill Hull, Bill Ruby, and Henry Newton are fine ends. Paul Martineau and Kent Martin lead a slender tackle corps. Sophomore Tommy Egge is the best center. Bob Irwin, a junior," is the best of a meager crop of guards. For Wake to come through, a lot of green men are going to have to mature fast. SOUTH CAROLINA The Gamecocks, under new coach Marvin Bass, are planning a "pro-type' offense for '61. Quar terbacks Jim Costen and Dave Seweli; who ran wild against UNC last season, will . direct the at tack. Billy ' Gambrell is the best of the halfbacks, and Dick Day is the leading fullback. End John Caskey and Tackle Joel Goodrich are the line leaders. The main problem in the forward wall will be that of inexperience. VIRGINIA The Cavaliers are ready to break their 28-ganie los ing sfreak, but they will play in too fast a league. Now coach Bill Eftas has inherited a team with a lot of offensive ability. If he can build a defensive team, he will make UVa fans happy. Stan Fis cher and Gary Cuozzo quarterback the team, calling On such fine ball carriers as Ted Rzempoluch, Carl Kuhn, and Tony Ulehla. Bruce Perry is the choice to replace rushing 'leader Fred Shepherd at Full. Ron Gassert is one of the better tackles, in the league, but many of the posts up front will be filled by unknowns. Morehead Group Visiting Schools The .Orange .County Morehead Scholarship Committee is now visit ing schools qualified to nominate students for competition in the statewide selection for Moreneaa Scholarships to the University of North Carolina. Committee Chairman L. J. Phipps of Chapel Hill and members W. L. Sloan and George L. Cox head, both of Chapel Hill, and Bon ner D. Sawyer and Dr. M. B. Ro berts, both of Hillsboro, are sche duled to receive nominations from school nominating committees by October 15. The committee will in terview and screen each applicant in their selection process. They will make their recommendations to the executive secretary of the Morehead Foundation by Novem ber 15. County nominations will then be processed and forwarded to the seven district committees for further screening and selection. Two 5Vrtic!es Are By Chapel Hiilian Two articles by Dorothy R. Wat erbury of Chapel Hill and . one by Edwina Trent of Fayetteville, are among thirty features in the 1961 edition of "Elementary Science Units for All Grades,"' a gram mar school teacher publication just released by the Education Publish ing Corporation of Darien, Conn. This guidebook for teachers em braces a wide range of subject matter and projects for classroom activity. It is extensively illustrat ed. Physics, astronomy, biology, botany, atomic energy and meteor ology are represented. "These Plants Trap Their Foods" by Mrs. Waterbury, describes a number of plants which feed upon I insects including the Venus fly trap, native to North Carolina, the pitcher plant, and others. "The Little Horse in the Sea" by the same author describes the life and habits of the sea horse. . "Animals Around the Year" by Edina Trent is a comprehensive outline of a method of presenting stories and facts about animals and their behavior. The author teaches second ?rrade in a Fayetteville pub lic school. Other articles and projects are presented by Dr. Alexander Joseph, High School of Science, New York; Gardiner Gregary.

ONCE MORE, UNTO THE BREACH With this installment I begin my eighth year of writing columns for the makers of Marlboro Cigarettes, as fine a bunch of men as you would meet in a month of Sundays loyal, true, robust, windswept; forthright, tattooed in short, precisely the kind of men you would expect them to be if you were familiar with the cigarettes they make and I hope you are for Marlboro, like its makers, ia Toyal, true, robust, windswept, forthright, Uttooed. There is, however, one important difference between Marl boro and its makers. Marlboro has a filter and the makers do not except of course for Windswept T. Sigafoos, Vice President '. in charge of Media Research. Mr. Sigafoos does have a filter. I don't mean that Mr. Sigafoos personally has a filter. What I mean is that he hsfe a filter in his swimming pool at his home in Fairbanks, Aiaska. You might think that Fairbanks is rather a odd place for Mr. Sigafoos to live, being such a long distance w r. f 1' if r WJdt.U'IlCJVWlWM from the Marlboro home office in New York City. But it should be pointed out that Mr. Sigafoos is not required to be at work u'ntilTOA.M. But I digress. This cbtenn, I say,,will take up questions of . burning Interest to the academic world like "Should French , tonversation classes be conducted in English?" and "Should Students be allowed to attend first hour classes in pajamas and robes?'' and'Can a student of 18 find happiness with an eoo faomfe's professor of 90?" p Because many of you are new to college, especially freshmen, perhaps it would be well in this opening column to start with 'wBnptii fundamentals. What, for example, does "Alma Mater" . fxfeah? Well, sir, "Alma Mater" is Latin for "send money", What does "Dean" mean? Well, sir, L'Dean" is Latin for f'don't get caught'.'. What does f 'donnitoiy" cocao? Well, sir, ffdormitory" is X&tin for ."bed of pain'?. Next, let us discuss stadant4eacher relationships. In college the keynote of the relationship between student and teacher is Informality. When you meet a teacher on campus, you need not salute. Simply tug your forelock. If you are bald and have ' no forelock, low curtsey will suffice. In no circumstances hooM you polish a teacher's car or sponge and press his suit. It is, however, permissible to worm his dog. With the President of the University, of course, your relation ship will he a "bit iasore formal.
