Jim Hickey's decision to go for the one-point conversion in Satur
day's 7-6 loss to North Carolina State was not an ill-fated decision,
regardless of the games's outcome. Neither was it a poor decision.
The Tar Heel coach was looking ahead to the Atlantic Coast Con
ference race, for one thing. Jim knew that a tie would keep Carolina
in the running for the championship. Few teams have gone unbeaten
in the history of ACC competition.
And, as he said after the game, he thought his boys could score
again if they got the ball. Kenan Stadium may have seen another
miracle win like last season's Tennessee game, if Dave Houtz hadn't
gotten off his best kick of the game, a-54-yarder. The State defenders
hit Ronnie Jackson at the three-yard line, as soon as he caught the
booming kick.
When you're' backed up to the three, it's difficult to start a good
drive. Houtz's punt saved the game for State and Coach Earle Ed
wards. True, after the game, Coach Ilickey second guessed himself. But
who wouldn't? Playing for the tie with four minutes remaining was
smart football. Smart football wins games and Hickey's men will get
their share.
Craver Stands Out
Carolina's All-American hopeful, center Joe Craver, showed why he
was recognized in, pre-season . listings.. He was the top man on .de:v
fense for UNC and N. C. State. ' " " '
The big fellow from Shelby made seven of the team's initial tackles,
which numbered 64. Blue unit members made 38 of fhe tackles, so
Joe was in on one-fifth of the tackles made. He also made three as
sists during the cool afternoon.
Jack Tillery, with five tackles and four assists, was right behind
Craver. Jim Alderman had a total of eight five tackles and three
assists.
Other big men on defense were Duff Greene and John Hammett
four tackles and three assists each), Bob Lacey (four tackles, two
assists), and soph Clint Eudy (three tackles, three assists).
Wolfpack center Bob Royer was the biggest problem for Carolina
backs. He made five of 48 tackles and chipped in with three assists.
. Defensive back Merrick Barnes made six tackles, being topped
only by 'Craver. Barnes had no assists. ' ... .
Also tough on defense were halfback Joe Scarpati (four tackles,
three assists) and end Don Montgomery (five tackles, two assists).
Ohio State Scouts
Respect UNC Team
By MAT FRIEDMAN
' While Tar Heel fans may have
been disappointed in their team's
inability to move the ball during
most of Saturday's game with
State, some encouraging words
were offered by Ohio State scout
Bill Wentz, as he sat in the press
box gathering information on
the Buckeyes' opening game op
ponent. "They're a young and spirited
team," he said, noting that the
three team system would begin
to pay dividends later in the
season, as the young players
gajnedmore experience.
Mr. Wentz observed that UNC
was- the victim of many bad
breaks which forced them to play
deep in their own territory a
good part of the game. He stated
that their ability to march the
length of the field, as they did
in the fourth quarter, was a

favorable sign.
When asked how the Ohio
State team felt about next week's
game, the scout said they would
be "looking for a tough game."
Most of the players are "curious"
about the Tar Heels since they
know so little about them.
Might the Buckeyes be a little
overconfident, not having heard
anything particularly impressive
about UNC? "No, Wroody never
lets them get that way," he re
plied,, referring to OSU's famous
coach, and added that State's
play against the Tar Heels meant
nothing as far as the Buckeyes
were concerned. "Anyone " can
move against anyone on a given
day," he said.
Wentz was friendly, answered
questions readily, and was not in
clined to take the University of
North Carolina Tar Heels light
ly. Wentz and another scout took
notes, made diagrams, and look
ed poker-faced, generally.
Michigan State scouts didn't ar
rive at the press box in time for
the kickoff. They came late, and
left before the final whistle.

of time to see what Carolina has

pre-fight defeat Monday when
he finally consented to boxing
Floyd Paterson for Sonny's
glaves demanded by champion
huge, ham-like fists Tuesday
night in their fabulously rich
heavyweight championship fight
at Comiskey Park.
While nearly everyone con

the weather, Liistori-a former
convict and strong-arm guy
explosively ended the week-long
argument about gloves .at-his

wear the eight ounce mittens
that Patterson insisted upon
"rain or shine."

Liston Breaks Camp
Twenty-eight-year old Liston of
Philadelphia, favored at 8-5 to
wrest the title from Patterson
of Scarsdale, N. Y., broke camp
and came secrtely into Chicago
Monday night as did the 27-year-old
champion, who had been con
ditioning at Elgin, 111.
Patterson said: "Well, I'm
glad Liston decided to use a
glove that had proper horsehair
padding the New York glove. -In
my opinion the rubber-foam
padding in the Chicago-made
glove, that he wanted, shifted too
easily away from the knuckles."
Liston tried on newly made
gloves from New York Monday,
angrilly agreed to wear them
that the challenger would win by
a knockout in the early rounds,
preferably the third or fourth.
Coeds Favor Liston
Of the few Carolina C?oeds
who displayed any knowledge of
the fight, at all almost all voic

Will Be Back
NEW YORK, (UPI) "We're

out to be," 72-year-old Casey
Stengel said yesterday but that
won't keep the old boy from com

"I'll be back next year if
my health is good and right
now it's good," Stengel said at
a news conference called to re
veal the badly-kept secret of
his signing for '63.
"And from now on," he add

- more argument! That's-it.
Although Liston is favored in
the betting to register his 27th
consecutive victory and his 34th
in' 35 fights, a poll of 104 sports
writers gathered in Chicago
from many countries surprising
ly favored Patterson, 62-42, to
keep the crown in his eighth
' defense and 10th title fight.
In a statement Monday night,
promoter Bolah said: "If Tues
day is a sunny day, our gross
live gate at Comiskey Park
should approximate $800,000 because-
we've alreday taken in
nearly $600,000. We expect at
lest 35)00 people at the prk."

some even announced that Liston
"might just win."
Patterson fans could not agree
in the least way as to what
round Patterson would win in.
Few people mentioned anything
about a technical 'knockout or
a possible draw but most thought
it would be late in the fight,
anywhere from the eighth to the
fifteenth, when Patterson would
take it.
In connection with this poll
some notable quotes were heard
around the campus. One stu
dent voiced the opinion that "Lis
ton would place in the third"
whHe another poked that both
fighters would be disqualified for
being too animalistic. One Daily
Tar Heel member said "I like
crooks to win."

Liston Heavier
Liston is a betting favorite be
cause of his size, punch and rug
gedness. When the six-foot-on
challenger with the 14-inch fists
steps on the scales Monday, he
expects to register about 215
pounds. That will give him an ad
vantage of about 25 poundse over
Patterson, who aims . at' 190
pounds for his five-foot-11 chas
sis. In addition to scoring 23
knockouts in his 34 bouts, big
Sonny never was stopped nor
even knocked off his feet. His
only defeat was on an eight
