PHANT0MS DRILL
FOR LOOP BOUTS

CHAPEL HILL, Feb. 21.-North
Cardinals White Phantoms, with
two workouts already behind them
this week, were scheduled for a
very light practice session this ev-
ening in preparation for their open
ing game in the Southern Confer
ence tournament with the N. G..
State Red Terrors tomorrow night
at o'clock.
No last minute changes were
anticipated in the Phantom starting
lineup. Coach Ben Carnevale is ex-
pected to throw lineup consisting
of Anderson and Dillon at forwards,
Paxton at center, and Jordan and
Alvarez at guards against the Red
Terrors.
The Tar Heels have tough road
ahead, as they would have to face
both South Carolina and Duke, in
addition to State, if they were to
crash through and score an upset
for the conference title. 1t all adds
up that the Phantoms will have to
get hot and stay that way for all
three days if they keep on the right
side of the ledger.

Request Calls For Is Per
Cent Reduction In
Travel
Ry BUS HAM


WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-(P-
The 1s45 world series may be can
celled. the annual all-star major
league game is definitely out,
and the whole sports world will
have to curtail its travel sharply
as result of a Government de-
cree today.
The action, which took the form
of a request" by the Office of
Defense Transportation, was ad-
dressed initially to baseball, which
was asked to cut its travel by %
per cent, as compared to 1914.
But the ODT is formulating an
overall "home field" policy which
is expected to cut out at least
one-fourth OF all passenger miles
travelled by athletic teams, amateur
and professional.
Some intersectiona1 football
games and basketball contests ap-
parently will 60 by the boards.
However, the action came as
somewhat of a relief to those base
ball fans who had been fearing out
right cancellation of the national
pastime in 1915. It tends to give
the game sort of lease on life,
on clarified basis, provided the
ODT requests" are observed.
Here are the four ways in which
baseball was asked to cut it's trav-
ell:
/. Games will be played only
in the home city of one or the other
competing teams. except at Ar
my and Navy establishments where
the military will provide transpor-
tation. Preseason training will
continue to be held at places in or
near the home city of each team.
2. Team rosters, when travel
ling, will be reduced to a mini
mum.
3. The world series games will
be held only if transportation and
war conditions at the time permit.
4. All clubs will re-examine
their schedules and make such
further transportation savings as
are possible.
Major league leaders "voluntar-
lily pledged full cooperation with
the Government conservation pro-
gram in conference with Col. j.
Monroe johnson, ODT director.
Ford Prick, National League,
and Will Harridge, American
League, baseball's official two-man
committee, went over the situation
with johnson and said they were
very well pleased with the whole
thing"
They commented that their two
day visit here, including a con-
ference with War Mobilization Di-
rector James F. Byrnes princip-
ally on the games manpower
problems, obtained encourag ing
and satisfactory results.
Optimistic over chances of con-
tinuing this spring, despite this la
test restriction, Prick and Har-
ridge said they will report very
interesting findings" to their re-
spective leagues by correspon-
dence
The ODT's action was consider
ed realistic approach to a gen
eral Government wartime sports
policy which many athletic lead
ers have recommended as the best
solution TO the whole problem.
Prick probably expressed the
sentiments of these leaders in say
ing that its just what we want
