Dash Stars of CoroIinos Meet
In Two Races in ACC Track

"A pau VI AdCCO ACUVuA AAS
Tommy Woodlee, "the fastest
human in South Carolina" and
jeff Newton, who rates the same
distinction in North Carolina,
will be among the attractions in
the Atlantic Coast Conference
track and field championships
tomorrow and Saturday at the
University of Maryland.
Woodlee, a junior at the Uni
versity of South Carolina. has
one of the finest records of any
college runner in the country
this spring. He has been beaten
only once in the 100-yard dash,
by a man he twice has outdis-
tanced since, and only once has
he been clocked as slow as 10
seconds for the century.
He and Newton, who runs for
the University of North Caro-
lima, will be strong candidates
for the 100 and 220 yard cham
pionships in the meet at Mary
land. In fact, a rather fancy
field is being presented in the
daShes, with such other good
runners entered as Harry Brown
and Chuck Novak of Duke, Phil
Stroup and Jim Pentzer Of
Maryland and Bobby Drawdy,
another South Carolina flash.
Woodlee's best 220 clocking is
21.8 seconds, and he has had
successive 100-yard races of 9.8,
80. 80. 9.8. 9.8, 9.8. 10, 9.S and
81. That 9.7 last Saturday tied
the State record in South Caro-
lima.
Newton Has Best Times.
Newton. the conference indoor
dash champion. has topped
Woodlee's best times in both
events. In fact, he bettered
both on the same afternoon
when North Carolina was bow
ing to Duke in a dual meet two
weeks ago, running the 100 in
9.6 and the 220 in 21.5.
The 440-yard race also prom
Uses hot competition. Pentzer
of Maryland won last year in
the old Southern Conference in
48.6 seconds, a real fancy bit
of footwork that was among
the best in the country.
Pentzer already has done 48.8
for a new stadium record at
Maryland this year and prob
ably will be the favorite, al
though he faces hot competition
from a teammate, Joe Hemler,
who beat him for the indoor
title; Sonny Wilcher of South
Carolina, winner of IL straight
races in dual meets; Myles Car
ter of Clemson, and Dick Mas
sey and Bruce McGregor of
Duke.
Other Champions Back.
In addition to PentZer, a num-
ber of last years Southern Con-
ference champions are seeking
titles in the new Atlantic Coast
Conference. These include Joel
Shankle, the finest trackman
in Duke history, who won the
broad jump and high hurdles
last year and who tied for first
in the high Jump and pole vault.
The men he tied with-Allston
Mitchell of Clemson in the high
jump and Mel Schwarz OF Mary
land in the pole vault-also are
back.
Other returning champions
are Durham LawShe of Duke
! in the shot put and Harry Brown
of North Carolina in the jave-
lin. Maryland also has three
men back from the team which
won the mile relay last year in
Stroup. PentZer and Burke
Wilson.
Admission to the meet tomor-
row and Saturday is free. Start
ing times are 3 pm. for field
events and 4 pm. for running

Three Straight Losses
Hurt CIV Mines
Title Prospects

Rated as one of the top base
ball teams in the Southern Con-
ference this year and a likely
title winner, George Washing
toms conference play over the
week end makes a revision Of
these estimates in order.
The Colonials started of win
ming six of their first seven
games. five in a row, but took to
the road for three games and met
with disaster. Last Friday 1t
was q loss to VMI and Saturday
VPI, the latter a team previously
beaten. Yesterday Coach Bill
Remnants boys dropped another
Us. to Washington and Lee at
Lexington. It was made all the
worse by the fact the Generals
were winning their first game in
nine starts.
Paul Weinstein, a converted
outfelder, scattered eight hits
and struck out 10 for W&L.
First Baseman Joe Lindsey's
single in the seventh inning
driving in Lowell Hamric from
second and breaking a SIS tie
was the clincher for the Cen
erals. Steve Korcheck got three
of GW's eight hits with two
triples and single. George
Washington's conference record
is now 2-3. VPI is the leader
with a 81 record.
Highlander Ronnie Nc
Pherson. former Montgomery
Blair High star, gave up only
four hits as he pitched American
University to an 81 victory over
Mount Union (Ohio) College at
AU yesterday. The Eagles now
have a ga record with McPher-
son credited with two of the
wins.
Another Blair graduate.
Southpaw Jim Reilly. pitched his
first game for Montgomery
Junior College yesterday and
came out a 81 winner over
Bulls Prep at Bulls. A five
run fourth inning by the
knights was sufficient.

game today, Catholic University

3 o'clock.

Thursday with the White Sox.
Steve Brodie helped write an
unforgettable chapter in base

Roberts, with a lineup composed
of such veterans as Walker

Pete Runnels is labeled the hub
of the Senator'S ambitions.
Harris likes his pitching. feels
he has adequate catching and is
enthused about his outfield. He

third. He realizes the Senators

he believes his batting order can

There's skepticism, though,
about the Senators second base
combination. Runnels. the clubs
