Wednesday, October 20, 1963 I Bob Quincy North Carolina emerged from the South Carolina IT££££ ,roo,l phy,to " sh * p '- but ,he >»” Not that the pigskin is sick. It is now with an old fnend. Prior to the kickoff, the Tar Heels agreed if they could cage the Gamecocks, they’d deliver the ball to Ray Reeve, the sportscaster who underwent serious surgery last Wednesday. Reeve, who handles play-by-play for one of Carolina’s two football networks, is recovering in Raleigh’s Rex Hospital. When he missed the UNC-N. C. State game two weeks past, it was his first absence at Kenan Stadi um here since 1939. Co-captain Gene Sigmon, standout at tackle for the Tar Heels, carried the ball to Reeve. Although he was unable to see Ray in person, he placed the trophy in the hands of Reeve’s daughter. * * * LIKE LAST YEAR: This marks the second time within a year the UNC team has/presented a football to special people. ■ Last fall, the squad autographed a white football and had it placed in the hands of Caroline Kennedy, the President’s daughter. It was inscribed: “From Carolina to Caroline.” Someone asked one of the players why such a gift? Said he.* “Well, we felt the little girl probably didn’t have any toys.” * * # NEAR MISS: Bob Lacey, who is showing spurs for All-America billing, pulled in 10 pass receptions during the 7-0 victory over South Carolina. His offensive work carried UNC into scoring position. Lacey thus equaled his personal high for a single game. He had grabbed 10 passes against Michigan State last season. Lacey almost had an 11th catch against the Gamecocks, but it got away. Had he held on, it would have equaled the Atlantic Coast Conference sin gle game record. Flankman Lacey has caught 78 passes during his three-year career at Carolina, second best in Tar Heel history. The all-time mark belongs to Art Weiner, who snared 114. It must be remembered that Weiner had four years of activity. Frosh were eligible his first season, 1946. * * * DEFENSIVE GEM: Last year, Lacey, who stands 6-3 and weighs 210, was utilized primarily on offense. This season, because of the revised substitution rule, he has seen equal defensive'- duty. He has done well. Against South Carolina, he made five personal tackles —high for the afternoon and assisted on several others. On one expert bit of pursuit in the second quar ter, Lacey threw Quarterback Dan Reeves of USC for an 18-yard loss. Quote Coach Jim Hickey: “Lacey is a superb athlete and can do about what he sets his mind to do. He isn’t a blockbuster type of defensive player, but he is swift and knows where to be. As for his offensive ability, I’ve never seen finer hands.” * * * TWO OF A KIND: It is coincidental that two play ers who contributed mightily to Carolina’s win over USC arrived on campus originally without scholarships. One is Lacey. He came to Chapel Hill on the basis that if he made good as a freshman, he’d receive a grant-in-aid. Yes, he made good. The other is Tackle Cole Kortner. The burly Kortner, who weighs 235, hails from Greenwich, Conn. He didn’t go out for football until his sophomore year. Kortner was on top of a vital play in the first quarter. He pounced upon a fumble which took the ball from USC on Carolina’s 15, thus halting a dangerous drive by the Gamecocks. They never threatened seriously af terwards.

The announcement of Hilton’s elevation was made by Athletic Director C. P. (Chuck) Erick son. Hilton succeeds the late Dale Ranson. under whom he had been assistant coach since 1952. “Coach Hilton worked hand in-hand with Dale and the two made Carolina’s track program one of the South’s finest,’' said Erickson. “It is only fitting that Joe carry on Dale’s work. There could be no other choice.” Hilton, born in High Point in 1917, served as an athlete under Robert Coach Bob) Fetzer and Ranson Jong before he became a UNC assistant. After graduat ing from High Point in 1935, Hilton entered the University and participated in three sports —football, basketball and track. After graduation in 1940, Hil ton coached at Goldsboro High Jordan-Sellars Is Streamrolled Lincoln High scored its eighth straight victory Saturday night in Burlington with a 62-0 win over outmanned Jordan Sellars High School. Lincoln rolled to a 48-0 half time lead and added single touch downs in the third and fourth periods. John James led the scoring parade with three touchdowns while James Bynum added two and Paul Farrington, Fred Bald win and Willie DeGraffenreid tal lied one each. Baldwin also scored two ex tra points with Jones Bynum, Thomas Bell, Robert Davis and Clarence Rogers adding the other five two-point conversions.

He served with the Navy during World War II as a deck officer on an aircraft carrier, returning to UNC fol lowing hostilities. In 1948, Hilton, who had been serving as a coach for two sea sons, obtained his Master’s de gree in Physical Education. Hilton was an intimate friend of the Ranson family and wes at the bedside when the dean of North Carolina coaches died last week. During his undergraduate days, Hilton lived with the Ran sons. Joe and Dale worked as a team in developing a passel of outstanding performers. While Dale concentrated on distance running, Hilton tutored the weight and sprint aspirants. Among the top athletes Joe has guided are Barry Tiedeman and Heath Whittle, vaulters; Tom my Clark, the current high jump king; hurdlers Jim Brown and Jack Moody; vaulter and broad jumper Charles Yarborough; Bob Kirk, javelin; Bob Seligman and Roger Morris, shot and dis cus; Harry Brown, sprinter and javelin, and Jeff Newton and Ronnie Jackson, sprinters. As an athlete at Carolina, Hil ton arrived with an impressive background. Participating on a team which captured the State championship, Joe placed as the No. 1 prepster at throwing the javelin. As a Tar Heel, Hinton scored often in the javelin and hurdles, but also took time to compete in the broad jump, high jump and vault. He ran on the first shut tle hurdle team to represent Car oline in the Penn Relays <1937>. Hilton held several dual meet and CAAU javelin records until Ms mark was erased J>y Kirk here in 1949. "My sole aim is to try to give the same guidance and dedica tion to track that was associat ed with Coach Ranson's era,” said Hilton. “No one will re place Dale. It is rather a mat ter of trying to keep pace.” Other than his track duties, the new coach serves as direc tor of freshman athletics. Hilton married the former Virginia Reid, of High Point, in 1941. They have three children; Truman, 20, a sophomore at Eastern Carolina College; Lib by, 16, e student at Chapel Hill, and Reid, 13, who attends jun ior high. Local Harriers Show Up Nicely Chapel Hill’s representatives on the UNC cross country team, juniors Bill Graham and David Radford, and sophomore Charl ie Lefler, have been showing up well in academics as well as athletics. Each boy has made the Dean’s List since enrolling at UNC, and, according to cross country coach Joe Hilton, they have been among the most dedicated and hard working runners on the team. “They are the typ6 of boys who don’t get discouraged if they can’t place every time. Moat other boys with their ahtl ities would never have reached the level they are at now, and they are Showing improvement every day,” said Coach Hilton. Lefler has been placing the highest among the three, finish ing as UNC*s siith or seventh man, end Graham and Radford should definitely be heard from befbre the oqpss country season •ads. Give to the Community Chert. CHHS vs. Southern Friday By JOE SPRANSY The Chapel Hill Wildcats will play Southern High’s Rebels Fri day night in their fifth conference game of the season. The ’Cats will be out to avenge an earlier loss of 26-13 in a non-conference game. Chapel Hill now stands second in the conference stand ings with a three win and one loss worksheet. Southern is cur rently tied with Orange High for last place in the District Three standings. Leading the Wildcats into the game, to be played on Southern’s home field in Durham, will be left halfback Donny Clark. Donny, a junior who was chosen by the District Three coaches as all conference last ye,ar, scored three touchdowns against Orange High last Friday. “Donny got off to a slow start this season, but he seems to be gaining momentum with each game,’’ stated Coach Robert Culton about his star halfback. Running at the halfback posi tion oppsite Clark will be Stan Perry and Tim Riggsbee. Stan, a senior, has been playing con sistently well throughout the sea son and is expected to start Fri day. Tim, a junior, scored three touchdowns against Orange in the first game of the season, has been scoring consistently since, and leads the team in individual scoring with 36 points. 3-DAY Fall Ronnd-lJp of Fashions SPECIALS for Thursday - Friday - Saturday - 3 Days Only Ladies’ Famous Brand Group Untrimmed Raccoon Collared o¥3Uk"o VI7TT7' 4 T> SPORT COATS ojw SWEAR NOW 1/g Off Reg.

Danny, who does the kicking and passing for the ’Cats, has proven a very able runner in recent games. He has scored 15 points so far this season on one touchdown and nine extra point boots. Filling out the backfield against Southern will be fullback David Gibson, who also doubles as one of the best linebackers in the conference. David has caught one pass from Leigh for six points this season. If co-captain right end Glen Blackburn can recuperate from a knee injury’ he suffered three weeks ago he will also be of great assistance on defense, as well as offense. Glen, a rugged defensive linebacker, has scored three touchdowns this season, two on pass snags and one on a fumble recovery and return of 35 yards. Also playing at end will be Eu gene Hines and Tom Brickhouse. Both did an excellent' job con taining Orange last week. An ankle injury is expected to keep starting tackle Tom Womble on the. sideline Friday. Most like ly to replace him will be co-cap tain Bill Blake, who has seen much action on both offense and defense this year. Tim Fanner, the other starting tackle, has starred on both offense and de fense throughout the year. Joe DiCostanzo and Phil Partin are among the finest pair of fast, rugged guards in the con ference. Center Tony Chapin, a junior, like the guards, is quick and plays linebacker for the ’Cats. Although Southern stands in the cellar of the conference, it is regarded as a tough team and has had some bad breaks in los ing four conference games. The Rebels stand 2-5-1 overall. With the return of quarterback Jerry Hamm who has been suffering a back injury, to the starting line up, the Rebels will be much stronger with their offensive game than in recent games. Roxboro seems to have the conference championship about sewed up. Their only contender for the honor is Chapel Hill.
