TURNER PACK HOPE

RALEIGH, Nov. s-P)-Howard
Turner, N. c. States All-Confer-
ence tailback and one of the
south's top passers, will be in the
Wolfpack's starting backfield when
it tangles with Dukes Blue Devils
at Durham Saturday.
Turner, the backs field general
for the last three years, had been
listed as doubtful starter by
Coach Beattie Feathers after the
Rocky Mount flash was injured
slightly in last Saturdays 6-to-O
win over Virginia Tech.
The 165-pound Turner, who com.
pleted seven of nine passes aaginst

age to $50 for one of the best
records in the country, is one OF
three members of this year
Wolfpack who played on the 1943
team which was plastered by

For Turner, and guards Tony
Gaeta and Julian Rattlelade, Sat
urday's game will have added
significance. 1t has been II years
since the Pack scored a victory on
the Dukes and Feathers has told
mis- charges they can do it this
year. But a win will depend on
Turner's ball-hawking.
Here's the record the Rocky

one seems to be getting in his two
bits worth concerning the Army
Notre Dame game Saturday, Sc
just to make it an even dollar We'll
chip in with the profound observa-
ton that we think Army will win
by a margin, say three or four
touch-downs.
We've tried to figure 4 way to
get in some ''if's" and "ands" and
"buts" in that prediction, but we
can't do 1t because, regardless
of what Notre Dame does and the
breaks of the game and everything
else that often have a bearing on
the result, Army seems to have
enough OF. everything to overcome
all obstacles, expected or unex-
pected.
We've tried to give the Ramblers
a chance on Frank Dancewicz' S
passing. Army too often turns an
opponents passing attack into
Army touchdowns.
We've tried to think Notre Dame
would play with a spirit bordering
on the frantic. spurred by mem.
cries of the SO to plastering il
took last year. There is nothing
wrong with Army's spirit, and il
defeats of the past are incentive
to greater effort it might be noted
that Army has won only six Of 81
games with the South Benders and
would seem to have a little catch
ing up to do.
We've tried to give Notre Dame
a chance on tie theory 1t had play

head against brick wall fairly

MOTION PICTURE

The production of carbon cleo.
trodes. used in many vital wartime
manufacturing processes as well
as in peaceful production, was the
subject of a sound-technicolor film
shown Wilmington Civilians last
night at their regular meeting by
H. F, Anderson, of the Union Car
bide company, of Niagara Falls,
N. Y.
With three plants in Niagara. and
two plants in the south including
an installation at Morganton, N.
C. in which Sc million dollars
worth of silver was used for con-
ductors, the company specializes
in the electrodes used in the car
bon arc steel furnaces. They fur
nish electrodes for the chemical
industry.
The film explained that the ele-
ment carbon is found in three
forms, the diamond, coal and gra-
phite, all true forms Of carbon gra-
phite. An additional characteristic
of the element is that it does not
melt under any known tempera-
ture, having been subjected to an
extreme Of 5000 degrees Faren-
heit.
Answering questions for mem
bers after the showing of the film,
Mr.. Anderson revealed that the
atomic bomb fuse was made at
one of the company's plants.
Earlier in the program, Waldo
Carroll, recently discharged after
three years and seven months in
the service, most Of it overseas,
was introduced as guest Of the
club.

than those of Notre Dame, although
the Notre Dame schedule sounds
tougher because Of the so-called
name schools listed.
While Army was playing the Tor.
pedo Bases and distribution com.
mands and Villanovas and Wake
Forests, the latter. not the soft
touch many might think, Notre
Dame was having its Dartmouths
and Pitts and IoWas, which this
year aren't up to their normal
standard.
We've tried to figure that maybe
the Ramblers could at least hob.
BILE those fleet Army backs a little.
Nobody else has been able to do
it and there seems to be scant
chance it will be done Saturday.
Our most vivid impression Of
Army's two most publicized backs,
Glen Davis and Doc Blanchard,
is that they have that little extra
something that all good champions
must have.
In any game you will see backs
away for 80 Or 40 or so yard runs.
Sometimes they score, but usually
they are overtaken. Blanchard
and Davis have that something
that gets them by the last man.
The Army backfield isn't en-.
tirely a two-man affair. Tom Nc.
Williams averaged 1913 yards in
81 tries covering five games. Bob
Stuart averaged 6.8 yards in IL
tries, and Bob Chabot averaged
|6.3 yards in 10 attempts. Blanchard,
the workhorse, carried the ball for
an 81 average in so efforts, and
Davis averaged 1876 yards in 4e
attempts.
In other words, no matter who
carries the ball Army seems assur.
ed of at least six yards.
Say, maybe they should call of
that game Saturday. It looks too
one-sided.

A strong Durham High eleven
attempting to rebound from last

combination of Garden to Ends

Of the Durham eleven is another
threat, with his hard running line
jabs.
Coach Leon Brogden's charges
will attempt to combat the invad-
ers with a passing attack which
has been polished the past week in
several long practice sessions.
Biggest problem facing the Wild
cats is their own fumbling. In last
Fridays 80 to IA defeat by Wilson,
New Hanover fumbles kept the To-
cal team in trouble all evening.
A pre-game contest between the
top junior varsity eleven, the Forty

two junior Varsity teams will play

In addition to the football clash,
