pairing for its meeting Satur-
day with North Carolina, was
deepened today with the a n
nouncement that freshman full

the season.
Trainer Al Crawford announc-
ed that Huzvar had torn a liga-
ment in his right knee while play
ing against Chattanooga last Sat-
urday and that he would be un-
able to play anymore this year.
The 225-pounder from Her.
shey, Pa, had been counted on
for valuable service against the
Tar Heels.
Four other state stars are still
on the lengthy injury list. End
George Blomquist and fullback
George Allen appear to be def
nitely sidelined, along with HUI
var, for the Carolina game. The
two other injuries to guards
Charlie Musser and Ralph Barks-
dale, may be healed by Saturday.
The Wolfpack gridders went
through a short scrimmage ses-
sion against the State B squad
and Coach 3eattie Feathers steer
ed clear of too much rough work,
lest further injuries be incurred.
Feathers concentrated most of
the session on defense against
