Carolina and Duke will continue their
intense rivalry here at Kenan Stadium this
alternoon, with the battle expected to b
as hard-fough' and unpredictable as
always.
Today's game has the earmarks of
being one for the record books in the
long 7X-year history of the two schools'
football feud.
Hvcnts during the week, from the Heel
Howl to the "Beat Duke" parade, help
ensure that everyone's adrenalin will be
rapidly and almost uncontrollably
flowing.
While most fans in Kenan Stadium
today will be thinking only about what's
happening on the field, the tradition of
the rivalry-the long history of it-will be
playing as big a part in the game as
anything.
The feud begain in 1891 when football
was emerging as a national sport. Duke
won that first game, 6-4.
The Tar Heels rebounded the next
year with a 24-0 victory, however, and in
1(22 began an eight-year period of
complete dominance.
After losing two years in a row to the
Dukes, the Tar Heels decided to regain
superiority as the country was emerging
from the darker days of the depression.
Coach Car Snavely was in his first year
of coaching at UNC in 1934, while Duke

headline read: "Cjrolina Rooters Veil.
Shout -Beat The Devil Out of Duke:" ,Ut
Like Gentlemen, Asks Harper Barnes."
Barnes asked in the story that
'"Carolina students act like college men
and not like a group of high school
boys."
The Tar Heels won the game. 7-0. and
the Daily Tar Heel was not modest about
the victory.
"Coach Snavely's inspired Tar Heels
rose to their greatest heights yesterday
afternoon when they outplayed and
outscored a mighty Duke machine, 7-0, in
one of the finest and hardest-fought grid
battles ever staged anywhere.
"A record-breaking crowd of
something over 30,000 packed every bit
of available space within looking distance
of the ball game and not a person
whether Carolina or Blue Devil rooter,
left the scene of play without being
satisfied that he had witnessed a
super-natural demonstration."
On that same page, a wire service story
from Jackson, Miss, read, "'King,' Huey
Long I, emperor of Louisiana, turned
rah-rah today and led the LSU cheering
section in a few yells as his team defeated
Mississippi."
The Tar Heels suffered for most of the
next twelve years, winning only twice and
tieing once.

Snavely. back as coach after a nine
vear lapse, was favored to bring his Tur
Heck to victory. He did. In lfUS the
DTH wrote:
"...Bowl-bound Carolina, held in check
for more than half the game by a
determined Duke eleven, roared back in
the second half to trounce their ancient
Durham rivals. 20-0 before 44.500 fans
yesterday, largest crowd ever to witness a
game in Kenan Stadium.
The rivalry see-sawed for the next
decade, with one of the most memorable
games, as far as Carolina fans are
concerned, coming in 1958.
The game was played on Thanksgiving,
with the first issue of the DTH after the
holidays sporting a six-inch high "50-0"
and a five inch high picture of Jim Hickey
at the top of the front page.
A column by sports editor Elliott
Cooper read:
"From the winners points of view the
contest was definitely the most.
Conversely, for the losers it was the
worst. Even if you had come to all the
Duke-Carolina games since they started in
1888 you would hever have seen anything
like what happened this time.
"Out on the field, Carolina was Midas
reincarnated.

pulled a trick which dates back almost as
tar as the rivalry itsel;'.
On the strenth of the "shoe-string"
play, Duke won last year and brought the
overall statistics between the two school
to Duke 28. L'N'C 25. with three ties.
During those eyars. the Tar Heels have
amassed 660 points compared with 698
for Duke.
Today's contest, highlighted by Duke's
passing and the Tar Heels' rushing, has
the potential of making even the most
memorable Duke-Carolina game small by
comparison.
