Since University of Kentucky bas
ketball stars were pulled into tbs
basketball scandals a few days ago,
State College alumni have been as
nervous as a cat on a hot roof.
All along they had felt that some
how North Carolina fcfuns just could
not be a party to such goings-on.
Still, State has played with the best
and has been in games with teams
already involved in the throwing of
points for the gamblers.
\ We won’t believe it until we see it,
but frankly are worried because of
this statement from Walter Win
chell’s column of last Friday: “A
North Carolina basketball star will
be involved in the current ‘fix’ scan
dal probe.”
Let’s hope Br’er Wjnchell is wrong.
If you recall, he said several months
ago that Charlie Justice was sashay
ing around Gotham night clubs with
some Broadway dame. 'He later, re
tracted the statement, admitting he
had been given a bum steer.
Confidence
The word we get is that many
North Carolina Republicans feel that
Senator Taft is not the man to beat
Harry Truman. Although they don't
give you the chapter and verse, they
feel that Taft has done too much toe

Harold W. §Mbble, is reportedly

has said he will give Wake Forest
$2 000,000 hart summer if it can find
18,000,000 between now and that
time. President Tribble doubts that
the Baptists can raise more than $1,
000,000 Of this amount. It is felt
that the $2,000,000 from the Baptist
organisation would virtually assure
an additional $5,000,000 by the mid
dle of 1058. .
