The locals have gone down to
three straight defeats at the hands

Clearwater team has a recordof
one win and two losses in loop
play and are a vastly improved
team over last year's entry.

for the first time this year will
have two starting hurlers. Bill

been signed as one of Hazelwood's
outside players, league rules per

Jack "Sheriff" Smith, who han

North Carolina Football Coach
Carl Suavely indicated last night
the I'ei.eial adoption of a system
like I he University's Education
Foundation. Inc.. would end the

"The e other purposes." he add
ed; "are forpotlen. At some schools,
the money from athletics is used to
buy more football players to make
more money on football games to
buy more football players."
The end result is. he said, "a
football program and a football
i school."
The University of North Caro
lina's Education Foundation, set
u to provide needed funds to
worthy students whether they are
athletes or not is the only source
of help available to good students
who play football, he explained.
''And if an athlete is just sell
ing bis services, he could do bet
ter Et other schools in the West
ern Conference or the Ivy League,
where the competition 'for talent)
is really stiff." the veteran coach
added.
"If a top notch boy comes to
North Carolina for that (Founda
tion i scholarship, he's certainly
coming to do something besides
play football "
Candidly, he told his audience
without the Foundation, North
Carolina's 1949 football schedule
sparkling with the names of na
tional powerhouses, would have to
be cancelled.
"Football is not run that way
these days." he continued, "good
players can't come to a school that
can't help them."
Referring again to the Founda
tion, Coach Snavely said it's oper
ations are "open and above board
in every respect." and complies
fully with the requirements of the
National Collegiate Athletic Asso
ciation. "The boy who can qualify for a
Foundation scholarship could qual
ify for scholarships at Princeton,"
he said.

guests from Jackson. Macon, Swain,
and Haywood counties attended the
