DUKE BLUE DEVILS
TAKE THREE GAMES
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dukes three victories in as many
nights-all of them at the expense
of southern conference opponents
was highlight of the North Caro-
lima basketball picture during the
past week.
Beginning Thursday night the
Blue Devils dropped South Caro-
lima, 52-35; Davidson, 55-27; and
Maryland, 1927. The three wins
brought their seasons record to
five wins and two losses, second
only to North Carolina among the
states ''Big Five" and lifted their
conference record to four victories
without a single loss.
North Carolina, defending confer
ence champion, took it compare
lively easy during the week, meet
ing-and defeating-only one foe,
the Airborne Center Of Fort Bragg.
The soldier quintet was downed
Saturday night, 1888.
Davidson, back in action after
the Christmas holidays, won one
and lost one during the week to
maintain their 500 average for
the season. The Wildcats are the
only other one of the other Big
Five quintets with as much as an
even break for the season thus far.
N. c. State has a record of a
single win against two defeats i;
Wake Forest, apparently not quite
so powerful on the court as on
the football gridiron, has lost five
while winning two.
Appalachian, of the smaller col
leges, has a perfect record for the
year, with two victories and no
defeats. Elon, after running up
four victories against a single set
back, ran into trouble during the
past week, dropping two successive
games to Randolph-Macon of Vir-
einia.

If Topping's claim to the play.
ers holds up, it marks the second
fine the New York tin-plate KING
has given the A. A. G., neeoeol
shot in the arm.
Over the protests of the N. F. L.,
Topping said the 200 players on
the reserve list of the now defunct

National league can do about II.
Topping took the top Is. which
