JnKjC ffutß ■ | - 1Ji.... The Star and Friends—Carolina’s Wade Smith chats with friends after his team's 27-0 victory over Maryland in Kenan Stadium Saturday afternoon. The popular halfback from Albemarle set up two Tar Heel scores on pass-run plays of 3 3 and 39 yards, showing some of the fanciest running seen hereabout since the days of Charlie Justice. Smith, who is a Morehead Scholar, is also a fine defensive player, specializing in jarring tackles and pouncing on loose balls. He was an All-Southern performer at Albemarle High School, and got into nearly every game here last year as a sophomore. Coach Tatum says “He’s a great boy and he’s improving every game.” Bill prouty for the bill. Tatum is pleased. He's a wonderful young man who plays the game up to the hilt. The boys are crazy about him,” said Jim Tatum with obvious pride. Bits Jim was talking about his junior left halfback Wade Smith, a Morehead Scholar student from Albemarle, who plays football in his spare time. One of the writers at the press conference, soon after Carolina had whipped Maryland, 27-0, Saturday, had asked the Carolina mentor about his new-found sparkplug, who has led the Tar Heels to three straight victories over Southern California, South Carolina, and Maryland. "I’ve never seen a sophomore back improve as much as he has in one year," said Jim. "I’ve seen some linemen do it, but never a back. Why he even went out and got some weights and used them to strengthen himself during the off-season. At the beginning of his sophomore season last year, he was four steps behind Schuler and DeCantis in the sprints, but now he’s right up there with them. He just decided he wasn’t going to let anybody beat him out for the team and he’s improving every game." Enthusiasm Understandable Big Jim’s enthusiasm for his sturdy little (5-10, 170 pounds) runner and secondary defense standout is understandable. Smith’s 27-yard cutback run for his team defeated Southern California for the Tar Heels, while his 27-yard sprint to the South Carolina one-yard line and his ensuing plunge for the touchdown beat the Gamecocks a week later. And Saturday you couldn’t have asked more of a halfback. His two runs of over 30 yards each after short passes from Jack Cummings set up the Tar Heels’ first touchdown and sparked the 80-yard drive for the second touchdown. Score in the second quarter. And in the meantime, he was playing great defensive ball. You’ll probably be hearing more from Mr. Smith before the second half of the season is written into the books. I Koes is ‘Great’ And though Big Jim was lavish in his praise for Smith, he was positively ecstatic about the defensive play of his big senior center-linebacker, Ronnie Koes. “Koes played one of the greatest defensive games I’ve ever seen a lineman play against Maryland,” Jim said about the 215-pounder from Duryea, Pa. “At Maryland we had the lineman of the year in our center John Pelleggrini, but I never saw him play a better game than Koes did against Maryland,” Tatum said. Ronnie’s play all year has been great, and the same type of play through the second half of the season will surely land the big senior on some of the all-star teams. Goldstein ‘Player of Week’? "But,” said Big Jim, “I think we’ve got the ‘Player of the Week’ in A1 Goldstein, who tipped up a pass attempt by Maryland’s Bob Rusevlyn, caught it in mid-air and outran the Maryland quarterback 46 yards to the goal for the touchdown.” From where I was watching the game, both against South Carolina and Maryland, Al Goldstein has been giving the Tar Heels great end play. Not only is the agile Brooklyn, N. Y., junior a constant threat on offense with his pass-catching ability and blocking, he’s rounding out as one of the conference’s standout defensive linemen. He’s the slashing type who frequently breaks through to nail opposing backs behind the line of scrimmage for threatening losses. Homecoming Always Great Day Homecoming Day is always a great day in college football, and especially when you win. Set about the middle of the season, it usually finds Chapel Hill in its autumn’s finest, its numberless trees dressed in (Continued on page 5) Boys in Victory Wildcats Win Sixth of Year In Close Battle By Paul Houston Chapel Hill High footballers! pulled out their shirt tails and, battled back into the victory groove with a 13-7 triumph over obstinate Northern High at the Lions Park Friday night Although the Wildcats easily exhibited the most class, the visiting Knights fought valiantly throughout and almost scored a game-tying touchdown in the waning moments of the Homecoming contest. Even Chapel Hill waited until three minutes left to punch over the winning margin. And it was right after that that Northern came hounding back all the way to the Hillian 13 before losing possession on a fumble. The prelude to this wild finish saw CHHS tally 7 markers near intermission, countered by a Northern 14 midway the third quarter, to deadlock the score. Chapel Hill ran the ball up and down the field for most of the night, but would choke up on most of its advances. Wildcat linemen had trouble with Northern's backfield men on only two occasions halting them at the Chapel Hill 29 on the Knights' first series of plays, but permitting them to forge over the goal two and I ife a half-quarters later. Leading the savage CHHS forward wall Wright, Richard Wright, Richard Shambley, Wayne Vancey, Vernon Davis, Larry Crabtree, Don Brillaman, and Bill Akridge. Unusual aspect of the game was the silent passing arm of Northern’s quarterback, Lewis Kendrick, for nearly all the game that is silent until the Knights’ last ditch effort with time slipping away. Kendrick then hooked up with receivers on three straight passes that covered 47 yards. But luckily for the Wildcats he went cold on his next two tries. Chapel Hill's dynamic trio of Subir Roy, Dave Henry, and Charlie Hubbard got together to account for all Wildcat scoring. Roy, hitting his old passing form, arched an aerial to Hubbard in the end zone from 23 years away to roll up the first TD Guard Larry Crabtree sailed a boot through the uprights for the extra point, making it 7-0. The TD was set up after Northern had punted to its own 38, and after Roy chopped off gains of 10 and three yards before flinging his pass to Hubbard. Northern came galloping back after halftime to score after capitulating on a CHHS fumble. Assuming possession at the Chapel Hill 19, the Knights whipped off five quick plays up the middle, finally to punch over the goal from two yards out. Quaterback Kendrick, who plunged for the TD, converted to void CHHS's lead and knot the count at 7-ail. ChHS effected the clincher when left halfback Dave Henry whammed over the goal from the 2-yard line to culminate a 13-play, 56-yard drive.

The win was sweet for Tatum, since last year the Terps upended his Carolina team, 21-7, before the Queen of England at College Park. Before that defeat by Maryland, the Tar Heels had won three in a row over Clemson, Miami, and Navy. * Weekly Sports Editor Team Effort Wins For Carolina "It was a team effort," said a smiling Jim Tatum about his team's convincing 27-0 win over a Maryland team, which had humbled Carolina 21-7 only last year before the Queen of England at College Park. Of all Big Jim’s previous 97 college football victories this must have been one of the sweetest. There is no secret that the Carolina mentor was bitterly disappointed at his team's showing last year against Maryland. The defeat was especially hard to take since the Terrapins under Coach Tommy Goodyear. GOODYEAR PRESENTS HERE SPORTS MONDAY WEDNESDAY FRIDAY 6:25 P.M.

Mont had been finding the going pretty rough and the Tar Heels were riding the crest of a winning streak over Clemson, Miami, and Navy. "It was definitely our best game of the year," said the happy coach to the scribes gathered on the second floor of the Kenan Stadium Field House immediately after the game. Reminded that his Tar Heels had not been scored on in the past quarters by Southern California, South Carolina, and Maryland, the Tar Heel mentor beamed.

"No," said Tatum, "though we practiced a lot more on offense than defense this week. We got the breaks and took advantage of them or the score might not have been as high as it was."
