Toward Georgia Tech Tilt

CHAPEL HILL, Sept. 15.-(P)-
The Tar Heels opener with Geor-
Tech on Sept. 25 still occupied the
attention of grid coaches at the
University of North Carolina to-

were the order of the day.
Return of George Grimes to
heavy work after an absence of
several days, and the shifting of
Tom cameron to center to bolster
that weak line, was announced by

slsslppi in the line blocking. Car
olina's Strayhorn, Hussey and
Jones also looked good up front.

Charley Keller took 20 minutes of
special practice before the New
York Yankees met the Philadel-
phia Athletics today and when he
came to the plate in the first in
ming he poled his 9th home run
with two mates aboard
This proved to b the keynote OF

won 7 to 3, because subsequently
Bud Metheny lit his 9th round
tripper and seconc in two days,
Joe Gordon collected his 18th Of
the year, and rookie George tai
Ter punched one for the AS with
two on.
The blow in the eighth inning
by Staller, who came to the Athle-
tics yesterday from Baltimore Of
the International League, spoiled a
shutout for Hank Borowy. He gave
only six hits and acquired his 18th
victory against nine defeats,

Out With Injuries

Coach Rupert Bryan's grid ag

Bill Aud, the Cats running an6
passing ace was out of action
with an injury. Red Mayhan
lanky flankman also was on the
sick list, but both of these men
are expected to be ready for rough
work in a short while.
The first team composed of
Watts and Piner on the ends, Holt
and Hobbs at the tackles, Snow
and Barefoot in the guard posi-
tons, Glines, center, Dyches, Sym.

string made up of Mason and Reg
lister, ends: Jones and Dowd, tack
les: Corbett and Piner, guards;
Michaelis, center, with Sykes,
Burriss, Sutton and Johnson in
the backfield.
The powerful running of piggy"
Dyches, the Cats 1870 pound full
back, highlighted the offensive play
of the scrimmage with the entire
forward wall standing out we'll on
defense: This years Wildcat line
has four men tipping the scales
around 200 pounds, in Watts, Snow,
Hobbs and Holt.
The Cats attack may prove to
be mixture of passing and de-
ceptive running plays as we'll as
the power plays that their weight
would permit Aud has proven to
be a fine passer and has able re.
ceivers in Watts, Mayhan and Reg
lister. Lowrimore's speedy revcrses
and Dyches' line plunging also add
to the diversity of the Wildcat al
tack.
Practices will continue daily in
preparation for the Whiteville

Game After Only Eight
Innings OF Play

The Boys Brigade softball team
battled the league leading Coast
Guarders to a Gall draw in an
eight inning contest which was
called because Of darkness, yester-
day afternoon on the Robert
Strange diamond.
A double by Conky and Patrick S
single drew first blood for the Bri-
gade lads in the second frame, but
the Guardsmen came back in their
half of the session when knight
tripled, DePompolo singled and
Cheek hit a long home run for
three tallies.
The Sailors added another run in
the fifth on hits by Otis and De
vine, and went into the seventh
and last frame holding the heavy
end of a Al score. However, the
Boys club squad We're not to be
denied; Wynn took first on a walk
and Sam Rowan followed suit; Pad
rick and Brinson then came
through with successive singles and
with the aid of a Coast Guard mis-
cue pushed across the tying tai
lies.
The Brigade lads kept in the
scoring by adding two more in
their section of the eighth, but the
servicemen managed to shove in
the tying runs when Lancaster
singled with two out and scored a
moment later on an error at sec
ond base. Harland then socked a
long homer to center and the
game was again tied up.
At this moment darkness caused
the ball game to be called until q
later date.

Massey Out To Settle Up
For Rough Treatment
By LuttraH

Tough OIL Cowboy Luttrall from
Fort Worth way may find the
riding tough when he mingles with
Al Massey of Snithfield in the
semi-feature event of the Friday
night wrestling program.
In all his fights here when the
going got too rough or too dirty
Massey has forgotten his wrest-
ling and has forced many oppo-
nents 10 give ground with his
fierce boxing offensive.
The way Promoter Bert Causey
states it, anything can be expected
in this opening affair. Causey says
it all started last week when Lut-
trail made the mistake of flooring
Massey, while the latter was Of
ficiating, thus causing the Cow
boy to be disqualified. After the
match a verbal warfare was be-
gun and Causey took this as his
cue for top-flight match.
The Battle of the Giants will
highlight the card and giants is
not a misfitted term. Bobby Stew

while his opposition, Tiny Morgan,

COACH BEWILDERED
WITH DUKE TIMING
Varsity, Scrubs Look Bad
AS Leatherneck Tilt
Approaches

DURHAM, Sept. is. - R - Run
ming his first string blue varsity
against the Jayvee White team this
afternoon, Coach Eddie Cameron
was disappointed in the display
put on by his main line Blue De
wills who will open the earliest
season in Duke football history
when they clash with the powerful
Camp Lejeune Marines in the 10
cal stadi' Saturday.
With his blue charges trying tc
stop simulated Leatherneck Of
tense at the start of the drills,
Cameron later switched the Whites
to defense as his varsity gridders
ran through a series of plays.
The biggest disappointment OF
the afternoons proceedings for
Cameron was the poor timing
shown by the big blue team as it
executed its maneuvers. This has
been one of the Duke mentor
greatest problems throughout pre-.
season practice.
Jim Arnold, a big hefty tackle
who played for Mississippi State
last fall, reported for the first
time today and worked out with
the varsity eleven.
Buddy Palmer, quarterback Of
last years yearling squad, was ir
uniform again today after being or
the sick list yesterday. Two Dur
nam standouts on the 1912 Blue
eleven, Bob Can't and Gordon
Carver, dressed this afternoon but
only went through light drills

called for an extra trip 1t
wasn't necessary as the con-
tending clubs both were from
New York.
This isn't the first time one
trip Series has been assured in
advance by official action. 1t was
a one-trip series in 1918, when the
play went six games and the first
three were played at Chicago. The
other three were played at Boston,
and probably it is more than a
coincidence that the proposal this
year came from man who was
a leading figure in the 1918 series.
He is Ed Barrow of the Yankees,
who managed the Boston Red Sox
in the is Series.
That 1918 Series was rather
hectic affair and developed a sit
uation which, if it occurred now,
would bring down the wrath of
the public and jeopardize the con-
tinuation of the game in war time.
That was a virtual sit-doWn strike
staged by the players because they
believed they weren't getting
enough meat from the series melon
which, at that time, was little big
ger than a small cantaloupe at
best.
It took a lot of nerve and a
brazen disregard of consequences
for the players to issue any sort OF
ultimatum at that time, as base
ball was on a Wobbly perch and
the season had been ordered short
ened. In 1918, there was a lot
more criticism of men not in uni
for mand athletes in particular
were singled out for abuse.
Anyway, for an hour prior to
the playing of the fifth game the
players and members of the Ma
tional Commission sat and SQUAD
bled, with the players eventually
abandoning their stand, or in this
case, seat.
In 1918 for the first time it had
been decided to cut in the second,
third and fourth place teams OF
each league on the series spoils.
The players, with attendance and
receipts smaller than they anti
cipated, argued they had not been
consulted as to the changes.
That they he'd reason to be per
turbed over their diminished shares
is apparent through the fact each
winning player eventually got $500
and each losing player $535. The
year before the winners had re-
ceived S3,669.32 each and the los
ers $2,442.61.
Last year each winner got So
1928 and each loser So, 351.76.
Getting back to this years series,
we have an idea that St. Louis
fans will see at least two games,
with the possibility they may see
four. so the chance of their being
short-changed as to the number Of
games they will see in compari-
son to the number New York fans
will see isn't too great.
The Brooklyn Dodgers just reach
ed their peak too soon. If they
had won the National League Pen
nant this year instead of 1941
no travelling would have been en-
volved. Downright unpatriotic of
them not to win this year, we calls
it.
