the scare of their lives in the annual
State track championships here Sat

o'clock.
The Blue Devils beat the Wildcats,
but otherwise Davidson has been cut

of its foes. The Presbyterians beat

strongest teams in Virginia except for
the University, and last Saturday they
gave South Carolina its first defeat
of the season.
Further, their stars hit some peaks

Carolina Faces Hard Luck
With Tough Virginia Foe
Chapel Hill, May s.—Carolina and
Duke track stars, who together bet
tered four state records in their dual
meeting, are being picked to set the
pace and make a great meet of Sat
urday afternoon's State Champion
ships here.
Davidson will also send a strong
team, and N. C. State, Wake Forest
and Guilford will each add its own
quota of stars, but the Tar Heels and
the Blue Devils will wear the fa
vorites’ colors. The Freshman di
vision will bring a number of other
star performers to the big meet,
•which will get under way at 1:45
o'clock and which will last until 5
o’clock.
Duke mowed down all opposition in
dual meets until it met Carolina. The
Tar Heels, who had already beaten !
Navy and Virginia in a single week- !
end. nosed them out, but the Blue
Devils put up as many feature per
formances as the Tar Heels. The
performances of that meet, standing
alone, indicate that this year's crop
of stars will set up several new rec
ords Saturday.
Charlie Farmer, Ralston LeGore
and Oscar Mullis of Carolina huve
previously bettered the existing state
records in the 220-yard dash, Javelin
throw and shot put, respectively.
Henry Fulmer of Duke has done the
same in the 440-yard dash, and Cap
tain Lionel Weil and Ken Marland
of Carolina have been hovering
around the record all year.
John Brownlee, of UuKe, who set
the Southern Conference record for
the low' hurdles at 24 seconds flat
last year, may easily lift the present
state record of 24.4 seconds, although
his best time in the Carolina m**,
was 24.5. *
Rip Slusser, his aich-rival at Caro,
lina, might do likewise. f m g>Ua
skimmed the lows in 24.4 second meed
last year, and is hitting his strafe
again fast.
The 9.6 seconds records in the 109.
yard dash will be hard to lift, bu ,
Brownlee has turned in 0 6 an <l
second performances this year and
Farmer has done 9 9 and ran one 8 te D
behind Waybright of Navy in a
dash. They should have another gi** t
race.
