tq-24 score in one of the fastest and
cleanest-playe games seen In Ryan Gym
in a long while.
These ''Tarheels" were easily the best
aggregation that has shown here this

short and long passes, while the goai
shooting both under the basket and from
mid-floor was sensational. The visitors
played a wonderful aggressive game anc
from the opening whistle had the Hill
toppers on a run.
Capt Hap" Martin, of the ''Tarheels, -
who played a guard position kept Fees
and Olone constantly on the run with
his ability to play the floor game, while
Luthur FerreIl showed some brilliant
dribbling. The Dixie quint was one OF
the largest that has visited here this
season, Terrell being the only small
man with the squad.
What Luthur lacked in height and
weight he made up in knowing the
basket game as his spinning, dribblinb
and passing made him appear like top
The visitors outplayed Georgetown al
every angle of the game and demonstrat-
ed great team work at scrimmage play
The first half ended l6 to IA in their
favor and when the Hilltoppers at
tempted to rush them off their feet In
the opening of the second half, they
played right in the offense of the Trinity
team as Capt Martin Gagged three
baskets in succession by taking mid
floor pass and shooting from near the
