Considering the rd tape that goes on with just about everything today your guess is as good as mine. Chances are nobody has ev en appointed a committeee to study the problem or even suggest names. However, Tom Craver of Ehringhaus Dormi tory has come to the aid of the non-doers and suggested an appropriate name. His theory is no doubt that a baseball field at Carolina should be named after some great baseball player who played for UNC. Looking back over the an nuls of history at Carolina he determined that the late George Sternweiss was just such a figure. Sternweiss play ed on the Carolina '38 team and later went on to play ma-" jor league ball with the New York Yankees. He is noted in the record books as having won the American Legue bat ting title once during his ca reer as a major league play er. So why not, Sternweiss Field? THE MINNESOTA Viking of the National Football League announced that veteran line backer Rip Hawkins, a form er UNC gridder, is consider ing retirement in order to re sume his law studies in Geor gia. General Manager Jim Finks said that "in all probability, it appears Rip will retire." Coach Norm Van Brocklin said it would be "a tremen dous loss to the Vikings.' Van Brocklin said it was his understanding that Hawkins Starts Today Shows At: 1:00-3:09 5:18-7:25-9:34 . I 11 .I l ; l had completed one and a half years of law school at Emory University in Atlanta, and he must now resume his studies there or lose credit for the work he has completed. Hawkins, 27, has been the Vi kings' regular middle lineback er since the club entered the NFL in 1961. WHEN CAROLINA comes up against Wake Forest dur ing basketball season this win ter, they will be facing the strategy of a new coach, Jack McCloskey. McClsokey, who coached Pennsylvania to the Ivy Lea gue championship last season, was named Wake Forest coach on March 23 succeeding Jack Murdock, who served as act ing coach during the 1965-66 season. Murdock took over when Bones McKinney resign ed shortly before the start of last season. The new mentor is taking over a team which won only eight of 26 games last year, including a 4-10 ACC record. Nine letter men, headed by Paul Long, are slated to re turn. Long was second in the ACC scoring race with a 24.0 average. So the Deacs with a com bination of a winning coach and an experienced team re turning might prove to the team to beat in the ACC this season. CLEMS ON BASEBALL coach Bill Wilhelm says the northeast has nothing on his baseball Tigers. He attributes a "power failure" to the Ti gers' disappointing showing the last part of the season. After hitting 34 home runs in the first 19 games, the Ti gers connected on only one cir cuit clout in the final 10 games. The Tigers were 5-4-1 in those last 10 after building up a 15-3-1 mark the first two thirds of the season. Golfer Baldwin Competes In NCAA Tournament John Baldwin, captain of UNC's golf team this past sea son, was the only player from the Atlantic Coast Conference to make it all the way through the NCAA Golf Tournament in Stanford, Calif. Baldwin survived a monst rous field of golfers from all over the United States in the biggest college tournament to date. He opened with a two over par 74 on Thursday, the first day of the four day tourney. On Friday and Saturday, he posted socres of 73 and 79 re spectively, and finished up on Sunday with a brilliant par 72. He finished in the 25th spot. The UNC captain was the on ly member to survive the 150 stroke cut - off point after the second round. Duke who won the ACC golf title and whose team comprised most of the team travelling to Stanford, couldn't muster a surviv ing score between them. As ACC champions, the Duke team plus four invitees from the other schools in the ACC were eligible to make the trip as the Atlantic Coast Confer ance representatives. Baldwin led the .
