WOFFORD BRINGING
FINE BALL CLUB
Terriers To Present Smooth
Working Offense; Has
Speed, Plenty Power

Wake Fores,, oct. Coach Jules
Carson, head Wofford mentor, has
announced that the same club that
opened against piedmont last week
will face the Deacons here Saturday
night. The kickoff will be at 800.
The Terrier club will present a
smooth working offense that Coach
Weaver's charges will have trouble
stopping. Headed by Joe Ashmore
and Tony Averinos, speedy triple
threat half backs, the South CAROLYN
ians will show tricky and clever set
of backfield men. And this set of
backs fit perfectly into the deceptive
offense planned by Coach Carson.
The Wofford forward wall, as we'll
as the backfield has speed and power.
j. o. Berry, 210 pound guard, and
Larry Hardin, 258 pound tackle, fur
nish a great deal of the power, while
Bill Kellett, P. p. Partlow, and Jim
Ariail supply much of the speed.

Conference Aspirations
At Stake At Carolina
Result of TerpTar Heels attic Likely Virtually Eli
inmate One of Other From Southern Conference
Race; Both Teams Will Probably Shoot Works

Chapel Hill, Oct. 1.-Two of the
Southern conferences undefeated
teams, both regarded as strong title
contenders, will lock horns in Kenan
Stadium here tomorrow in a struggle
that will doubtless see on of them
virtually eliminated from the Con-
ference race as far as first place is
concerned.
The kickoff time is set for 2:3O
o'clock.
Cardinals scouts who have seen
Maryland play think the two teams
are about evenly matched and are
booking the Tar Heels for their third
nip-and-tuck struggle in a row. The
Tar Heels won their first two games
with Wake Forest and Tennessee by
one touchdown margins.
Each team will be without the serv-
ices of star player. For the Terps
Bill Guckeyson, their triple-threater,
is definitely out with an injury. A
similar ailment will keep Tony Ger
nugle, Cardinals outstanding sopho-
more back, on the sidelines. Other
wise both teams will be in fairly good
shape physically.
1t appears now that the battle will
be decided by maneuvers in the air.
Both teams have some first-rate pass
ers and receivers.
Realizing the Importance of this
game, both teams are expected to

cation of women voters and workers
in every county, in addition to the
women's district organizations which
have already been set up.
ut has been a pleasure to find that
the women of North Carolina who
have been chosen as vice chairmen
of the county Democratic executive
committees are the women who have
already proved themselves leaders in
their communities, Mrs SplIlman
said. "They are capable, well trained
and thoroughly enthused over better
government in both the state and ma
ton They have expanded to large
extent the groups of women in al
most every county who have been
studying every phase of the New
Dear and carrying this information
back to other women in their com
munities. These we'll informed women
are working on the firing line OF
Democracy in every county today and
will keep on working until the cleo
ton, with the result that thousands
of women who have never voted are
going to vote in this election-and
vote Democratic"
The women of the State are also
greatly interested in the various so
cial security measures enacted as a
part of the New DEAL especially the
old age pension, old age benefits and
the other measures which are design
ed to provide for the aged and in
firm, Mrs. Spillman said. But most
of the women in the State feel that
the National Youth Administration,
by providing part time jobs for $780,
600 boys and girls in high schools and
colleges, thereby making it possible
for them to remain in school and
continue their educations, has been
one of the most beneficial agencies set
up by the Roosevelt administration,
Mrs. Spillman is convinced. Next in
line comes the Civilian Conservation
Corps which has provided work for
some 6OO,O0O boys who otherwise could
not have found work, taught them
how to work, clothed and fed them
and sent $25 month of the $50 a
month they earned in wages home to
their parents.
''The women of the state realize
| that it is their patriotic duty to put
| forth every effort possible for the re-
| election of President Roosevelt, the
great leader who has made all these
things possible" Mrs. Spillman said

CHAPTER Is

JOHN SAYRE told Garcia that
an apology to Alix would only add
to the unpleasantness of the situa.
ton. And Garcia had said she
knew what to do.
At IL o'clock on Sunday morn
ing, she knocked softly at the door
to Alix's room.
Alix opened her eyes sleepily,
stretched like a kitten and said,
"Come in"
The first thing she saw was
Carola's wide smile and then she
saw that Garcia was in pajamas,
a pink silk robe over them.
Flows the head, this morning 2"
1.-THE head? Oh, quite recovered
thanks. Am I sleeping too late? ?"
Alix wondered what Garcia was
there for.
"Not a bit of it but thought I
might come in and have my break
fast tray with you. It's probably
the only chance We'll have to get
together and introduce ourselves.
Yesterday, there were so many
people," She picked up the house
phone and asked for her tray and
Miss Carey's.
"And today, we're off again.
We're going over to see exhibition

there and the MacPartlandS-

truthfully. "But I have an engage
ment in town. I'm afraid I'll have
10 leave by six at the latest"
"Really?" Garcia sounded gen
timely sorry. ''Then why don't
you drive in with the colonel? He
has to be back tonight"
Alix tried to look enthusiastic.
That will solve everything" Let
Garcia take the lead in this unex-
pected conversation.
Garcia posed herself comfortably
on the foot Of Alix's bed.
Tell me about yourself" she be-
gan. "John says you're one of the
smartest advertising women in
New York. You don't know how
I envy you! Is it terribly hard?"
NO." Alix shook her head as
though she were amused. She
couldn't be sure whether Garcia
really meant it or whether her in
terest was simulated. 'Why

Duke and Clemson
Come Together at
Durham Saturday

Durham, Oct. 9-Duke's Blue Devils
and Clemson's Tigers come together
in Duke stadium tomorrow after
noon at 2:30 o'clock in a game that
lines up as a far greater gridiron en-
counter than is generally expected.
The surprising Tigers, who defeat
ed Presbyterian College and V. p. I.
by comfortable margins and then lost
to Alamaba by a one-sided score, are
far more powerful than the score
at Alabama indicates, according to
the Duke scouts who saw them in &C
ton against both V. P. l. and Ala
bama.
In fact, the scouts have reported
to Coach Wallace Wade that the Tig-
ers are capable of, and may upset
the Blue Devils in this important
Southern Conference clash. They have

have a good time ?"
"Good?" Garcia looked thought
full. And bored. 1.-The same old
thing over and over again. The
same people, the same places, the
same stupid conventions. J. guess
you'd think us pretty dull if you
had to lead this kind of a life.
Sometimes T think when I get
married I won't mind so much.
Having an apartment in town and
a house in the country :" Her
voice trailed off and Alix thought
with a sharp-toothed pain, does
she mean marriage and this
house?
Alix assumed an easy manner
not unlike Carola's and said, II
don't envy you but that's not be-
cause I think it would be dull. It's
just that I think life is exciting
when you have to crowd every
minute and you have work you like
and people you love. It doesn't
matter then whether work is earn
ing a living or doing someone thing
you want to do. If you like work,
why don't you get job?"
Garcia shuddered delicately.
Garcia work! Not to be able to
stay up half the night blossom
ing like an exotic night flower. Not
to be able to lie in bed and read
her mail until lunch time. Not al
ways to be free to do nothing but
make Garcia beautiful! The pros
pect chilled her.
She said: do you think John
would mind if came in to see you
some time? I'd like to see what
makes the wheels go around. He's
always so busy that when we meet
for lunch, he won't let me come to
the Office to meet him because he
thinks I'll be late and keep him
waiting. Silly boy, because then
we dawdle over lunch talking and
talking. I don't see what differ
ence it makes at the other end Of
the hour, do your"
mo, I don't, but then you see I
have only an hour for lunch.
Speaking of hours, aren't we sup
posed to be off for the tennis
shortly?"
Garcia looked at the enamel
clock on the bedside table. Fright.
We've less than half an hour. It's
been a nice little visit"
She got up as gracefully as a
cat, gathered the silken robe about
her slim, long-limbed figure. MAY
I call you, Alix ?" she called from
the door.
"Please do" Alix gave her her
biggest, brightest smile.
Garcia closed the door behind
her and whispered in the direction
of Johns rooms, Garcia came
through nobly but your Alix is a
cold little fish,"
Something dropped sharply in
back of her. On the other side of
the closed door. 1t was an ostrich
tipped mule, parting salute from
the cold little fish.
When Alix came downstairs. the
party was already disposed in cars.
She saw John only long enough to
wave and call out a greeting.
At the tennis club, she was seat
ed between the Tildens. The party
lunched at small tables and she
found herself aitting with Kelley
