Seek Bder as RiUGL
For Primo Camera

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Madison
Square Garden officials today
sought Max Baer, California
heavyweight, to box Primo Car
nera, giant Italian, in the 15-
round feature event of the New
York Christmas fund show. The
charity bouts will be staged on
December 8.
Camera has agreed to the bout
but Baer was reported suffering
from manager" troubles. He
was said to have so many man
ayers cutting in on his purses
that little remained for himself
Garden officials said Baer had
threatened to quit the ring unless
his shareholders agreed to com
promise their claims.

Vets ToppIe
Youngsters

Gaithersburg's CMarylanO old
time baseball athletes are wearing
smiles these days as they tell
about what might have happened
had they been in their prime
when they played the 1882 up
starts.
AS it is, they didn't do SO bad.
With a team which they say was
really fast in 1911, they took on
the present nine, and took them
over the jumps, 20.
Behind the alright pitching of
Douglas Diamond, the has been"
Cor as they claim, the still ares"D
pushed over runs by getting their
hits at the right time. The
present team got but four hits off
Diamond. former Georgetown ace.
1t is claimed however, that the
old fellows were aided by
Diamond and Arthur Beall, both
of whom now perform with the
present team. Furthermore some
ringers who didn't play until 1912
or 1913 were added, they say.

NOdCA OuGNA OOA AAbA 4no
Chattanooga, like Alabama
which preceded j it here, is a team
of class. Some notion of the
strength o the Mocassins may be
gained from tn. fact that they
have lost only one regularly
scheduled game ip three seasons.
and that defeat was chalked UP
by none other than Bob Ney-
lands University of Tennessee
eleven, which a year ago won
over frankie Thomas Crimson
Tidl by score of Is to 0. The
score of this years Chattanooga
Tennessee game was 13 to 0.
The Mocassins lost one other
game in the past three seasons.
That defeat came in a charity
game. Alabama won over ChaT-
tanooga, 20 to 0.
Saturdays battle between Card
inals and Mocassins is expected TO
be closer than was the Alabama
G. w. game.
HaSweII To Appear
Another great backfield star
will make his first appearance
in washington Saturday. He is
"Tubby" Haswell and last year he
was mentioned for All-America
honors. Haswell kicks, passes
runs and plunges. He is a big
chap, powerful, Shifty and re-
sourceful.
Saturdays game gives every in
dication of developing into bat
tie of backfields. The personal
element is injected. 1t will be
Tom Whelan, Cardinal ace,
against Haswell. Toms boosters
insist that he will show HaSWell
what it is all about. However,
that remains to be seen, as this
chap, HaSWell, is a real bacK1leIo
star.
The visitors will probably out
weigh the Cardinals by a goodly
margin. Like C. u, the MocasslnS
are adherents to the Notre Dame
style of play. Chattanooga does
not hesitate to take to the air,
albeit it has an excellent run
ming attack with power the doml-
mating factor.
Both Cards and MocassinS are
scoring teams. They concentrate
on attack. This makes for a bet
ter game, from the viewpoint OF
the spectator, and indications
point to a large crowd in the
c. U. bowl when the game gets
under way.
White Also Good
Chattanooga has a second star
who is worth going to see. He is
Charley White, an end. He drew
mention last year as an All-Amer-
lean man. He is particularly val
liable to his team on offense and
a standout on defense. His down
the-field play is of a sensational
order, as he is a vicious tackler
and hits his man with pile-driv-
ing force.
All in all, this Saturday game
stacks up as one worth going
plenty of miles to see. C. U. is
on the short end of the wagering
and a victory will put another
feather in the cap Of Dutch"
Bergman and his able assistants,
"Fod" Cotton and George Vlk.

YANKS' PUNCH.
BEST IN CAME

Ruth and Gehrig gave base
ball fans something to argue
over this winter. They proved
for the third time that they
were the most powerful one.two
kittels in the history of base
ball. They showed by their ter
rifle hitting in Chicago against
the National League Cubs that
ball, park or pitching make no
difference to them.
Old,time fans still have about
the wonderful hitting of Cobb
and Crawford as a pair. Later.
day fans say that the combina-
ton of Simmons and FoXx of
the AS is the greatest ever on
a team.
Few Equal Yank Duo
Others point out that Speaker
and Lewis of the old Red Sox
ranked high among the best
pairs.
National LeaguerS have few
combinations like Ruth and Geh-
rig, but there was a time that
Hack Wilson and Rogers Horns
by operating in the middle of
the Chicago batting order were
thought to be in the class OF
Ruth and Gehrig, but the fig
ures do not prove it.
In the three sweeps of the
Yankees against National League
teams, notably that in 1927, when
the Pirates failed to win game,
the turn back of the Cardinals in
1928 and the Cubs in 1892 it was
Ruth and Gehrig who led the
way. =

Remains n. G. Citizen
Rev Charles +. Maddry to Keep His
Legal Residence in This State

Although Rev. Charles f.
Maddry, who was recently APP
pointed executive secretary of
the promotion committee of the
Southern Baptist convention,
will have his headquarters in
Nashville, Tenn, he will remain
a citizen of North Carolina.
This is possible because his
work will cover all the South !;
he will be going about constant
ly, from one state to another,
and he is free to choose any
place he likes as his legal resi-
dence. That he will remain a
citizen Of North Carolina is good
news to the University, because
this means that he will continue
to be a member of the board Of
trustees. For years he has
been one Of the University's
most faithful friends.

Chapel Hill Chaf

Seersucker suits were once
popular as hot-weather apparel,
and then, for several years, they
were hardly ever seen; they were
not on the market and in most
parts Of the country were prac-
tically unobtainable.
In this period J. Frank Dobie,
the Texas ex-cowboy and au-
thor, came to Chapel \ Hill to
teach in the Summer School. He
was wearing seersucker. He
told me of the shop where he
had got his suit, and consented
to act as my agent when he went
home; and so a seersucker suit
was shipped to me from Austin,
Texas.
Now seersucker has come
back. The other day | read in
a New York newspaper an edi-
torial about its return, and | see
that suits of the material are be-
ing advertised by Brooks Broth
ers. the celebrated clothiers of
New York.
Why did seersuckers ever dis
appear from the market? They
are comfortable. They are eco
nomical, for they are washable
like shirts and underclothing.
And they are not bad-looking.
Fashion takes mysterious
turns. | have no idea that the

University consolidation in n. {.

The neWsmagaZine, Time, had

about North Carolina S new con-
solidated University.
Quoting some of the remarks
Of this paper about the folly of
creating the office of Chancellor,
Time says: "GroWled the Week
W.; we do not believe the people
of North Carolina are in any hu-
NOR to create a new and costly
office for the sake of show"
We did not realize that our
expression of this opinion was a
growl. Perhaps, if we had been
called upon to describe it, we
would have given it some dig
nificd name like remonstrance,
protest, or admonition. How
ever, it probably was growl,
and we accept the word gladly.
The important point is that the
trustees squelched the proposal
for a Chancellor. That being
accomplished, we are willing for
anybody to attribute to us any
