Majority Prefer Charlotte Contest To Caro

al Football Flare; Branch Gets Chance In
Farewell Game; Collins Picks His’n.
KooCiall fiiM> of .Shelby,juid section, pepped up for their
last i:apse of the jrridh’on pastime for this year, pill take
in the Wake ) 'o,vst,-!> .. kl on game at Charlotte tomorrow.
Thursday, instead of the annual Carolina-Virginia classic al
C lapel Hill.
That is, most of Uirin will. Bern.t
few will drive ('.sv.ri to Chapel HilJ
in habit, but i to majority evenj
time who ore i\ c supp-.Tiers of the
Wlidonta or D icons, believe that
there will be more of u contest In
Cli.r'.t.c. Thfy hate reasons for
so believing.
Not So Hot.
Once vvu . ibu Carolina-Virginia,
gahie the peals ol pigskin play j
in the two stales. But In recent
years Carolina has been moving
ahead of Virginia. This year Caro
lina has not burned up the woods,
but. for that- matter, Virginia
hasn’t found them Carolina should
win In such an easy manner that it
should not be unusually Interesting.
But one thing will add color and
zip to the game'. Johnny Branch,
greatest of bacUfteld stars produced
In Tarheclla In years, will play the
Virginia game after a long suspen
sion. It's Johnny's last game at
Carolina. A majority of the fans
approved Coach Chuck Collins’ sus
pension of the stocky star for vio
lating regulations and they ap
proved his attitude in keeping
Branch out of every game up to the
curtain call. But they're glad now
that in the last shot of the season
Johnny will have a chance to re
deem himself. One hunch—maybe
It's all wet—la that Johnny will do
plenty of redeeming. And many a
fan will be in Kenan stadium to
morrow just to see the little giant
In his swan song.
A REAL TUSSLE
But, back to the Davidson
Wake Forest clash, just a Rood
easy drivr from Shelby—that
should he a real football game.
Up to Id years ago Davidson
had her wuy with Wake Forest,
but for a decade the Presby
terians have not wen. Four
times they tied; six times they
'lost.
Ami the funny part of it is that
the Deacons somehow manage to
reach their peak at the eud of the
year and give the Younger eleven
a fit after the Presbyterian have
knocked off somebody important
like Carolina or Duke. It may be
the same story this year. Davidson
has had a better season than Wake.
Oh paper and judging by the record
SUe Wildcats have the edge. They
licked W. and L. and V. M. I and
tied Duke, Wake's biggest shot was
defeating State. But then? s that
Jtnx, arid there's that scrap that all
members of the two tittle eleven* of
the Big Five always put out against
each other. Davidson and Wake
Forest may feel that the others h>
the Big Five—Carolina, Stale and
Duke—arc a little loo much fo>'
them, yet each year the two get to
gether with the determination to
show fans that they're red-hot
against each other. And for 10
years they have been.
HACKS AND BULLS
Davidson will throw her buck
field stars against a great Wak?
defense that has been clicking off
and on this year. It will be Char
lie Pearce, Buck Mills and the two
Dons— McQueen and King—trying
to - puncture a big forward wall
built around those giant tackle.
Webb and Williams, and a great
guard, Dupree, And in Wilson and
Shinn Wake has two stepping ball
carriers.
DON’T MISS IT
Few Thanksgiving crowds will
see a better contest. One guess t,
good as another about the outcome
Take your choice and see plenty ot
football while you’re at it.
A PUNK CONTEST
The writer cannot help but‘agree
with Tom Boat about'that Duke
Car ollna game last Saturday. Tom
came very near calling it a pink
tea affair in his Greensboro News
story. And Tom came very near
right. The line play of the two big
elevens lacked the offense their
records indicated prior to the game.
Of course, there was good football
exhibited, but something was lack
ing The two elevens appeard, some
how. to be scaled of each other.
Ever see two little schoolboys call
ing each other names and both
reared to start any real action?
Tile game approached that more
than anything else. Kid Brewer's
play was one of the few highlights
of the see-saw struggle. The Duke
captain Is nobody's speed merchant,
but he is a terror on defense and a
good bet when just a few crunch
ing yards are needed. As it was
Duke seemed to have the edge, but
right until the play started mov
ing Carolina seemed to be rar
greater—and then the'-play would
not click. Astute football observers
couldn't understand why the Caro

Uses Candy For

Kinston.—Have you had your
alcohol this morning? This is
the true story of a man who
changed from corn whiskey to
chocolate candy after 20 years
and found it better and more
economical.
He drank steadily for two de
cades. His system was never entire
ly free of alcohol of the kind that
is manufactured in the eastern
Carolina stills. His liquor bills were
heavy. Sometimes they ran into
dollars in a day.
He became ill—from booze—about
the first of July. He reformed. He
found It was hard to do without his
daily dozen—or two. He took up the
candy habit. Now h ■ ats 25 corns
worth of bon bona twice a dryy. The
candy supplies a pan of the alcohol
he formerly derived from liquor
He retires at night completely sat

the chemistry of this thing—I only
know it works,” he cays.
Instead of scoffing, he-men who
like their alcohol in the liquid form

COLLINS’ CAROLINA
The paper# yesterday carried
Chuck Collins All-State eleven
After looking It over—did you see
it?—we wonder why Chuck didn't
go aheud and make It a solid uni
versity outfit. Only two players on
the eleven were not Carolina play
ers. Those two were Cobb, State
college tackle, and Kid Brewer,
Duke fullback. They should have
been there, but shouldn't one or
two other State, Wake Forest or
Davidson players made the Collins
grade?
Walker, of Carolina, should go at
one end. No argument about that
pbut it seems as if Brogden, of Wake
or Brown and Raker, of Davidson,
or Greason, of State, should have
had some consideration for the
other wing. And how about keep
ing both thote husky Wake tackles,
Webb and Williams, and Mathw,
the big Davidson guard, from win
ning at least one place In the line?
As for the backlield, Collins hit it;
Branch at quarter. Slusser and
Chandler at halves, and Brewer at
full could not be improved upon.
But why argue about it? Let's pick
one of our own;
Ends—Walker, Carolina; Brog
den, Wake Forest
Tackles—Cobb. State; Webb
Wake Forest.
Guards—Fysal. Carolina; Mathif
Davidson.
Center—Gilbreath, Carolina
Quarterback—Branch, Carolina-.
Halfbacks—Slusser and Chandler

he national rehabilitation commit-!
tee of the American legion urges
that publicity be given to the fact,
that this practice is aggravating an
already serious condition. The com
mittee lias called upon the veter
ans’ administration to issue a cir-;
Cuter to its employes instructing;
them not to suggest this procedure |
to veterans. It is pointed out that
while this sometimes tends to get,
one particular veteran In a hos-j
pita-1, it more oiler results in con- ]
gusion and disappointment to the
veteran who travels from his home
to the hospital and then finds that
he can not be admitted. Frequently
this veteran becomes a burden on
local welfare authorities and espec
ially on some post of the legion
which already has its hands full
talcing care of its own veterans.
At nearly al^ regional offices of
the veterans’ administration there
are now extensive lists of veterans
awaiting hospitalization. 'I hey are
classified according to the urgency
of the need for treatment. When
a veteran goes to a hospital on hit
own initiative, without first taking
the matter up with hiS regional of
fice. and is lucky enough to land a
bed, he may be taking some other
person's space who may be in much
greater need of treatment.

A small boy called on the docic
one evening, and said: Doctor IV
got the measles, but I can keep
quiet.
The doctor looked up, puzzled, ana
asked the boy what lie meant.
Well, suggested the small patient,
what'll you give me to go to schoc<
and scatter it among all the rest of
the kids?

Restless,
could not sleep
tt’J'RZRE were days
when I felt like I
could not get my work
don^. I would get so
nervous and ‘trembly’
I would have to lio
down. I was very rest
less, and could not
sleep at night.
My mother advised
me to take Cardui,
and I certainly am
glad she did. It is
the first thing that
seemed to give me
any strength. I felt
better after the first
bottle> I kept it up
and am now feel
ing fit e.”—v.u
