The cagers from the north side of town outscored the Maroons from the field, eight baskets to five, but almost lost their advantage via the foul line when their over-anxious defensive play presented the Asheville delegation with 17 free shots.

The members say that the only difference between alumni groups of other colleges and themselves is that they work kt the open. The club has lived three years, and it has learned. When it started beating the bushes in its safari for pachyderms, it dished out scholarships right and left to high school stars. The result was one of the finest looking freshman squads you'd find In a trip between here and Notra Dame. Stars Flunk But N.

C. State Is an agricultural and engineering school. Most of the players, recruited from cities, didn't want to be farmers, so they took engineering or it might be better to say that engineering took them. Half of the scholarship stars flunked out before their sophomore year, and never so much as wore a varsity uniform. As a result, the Wolfpack club decided last winter that its scholarships would go only to football players who had received good marks in high school.

The first question that was asked of a prospect was not how many yards he averaged net from scrimmage, but what sort of marks he got in math. The 1941 freshman squad was just'as rough and just as tough as the 1940 aggregation buf the difference was that the 1941 lads knew the difference between a cosine and a logarithm. Recruits Successful And. out of the top 33 freshman recruits who reported last fall, not a one has failed his work to date. There's been one result which may have been unforeseen.

The Wolfpack club, depending as it docs on voluntary contributions, isn't particularly dough- Here are the sixteen champions In the 1941 Golden Gloves tournament OPEN CLASS Dick Maney, Asheville, flyweight.

Hyatt made a crip to put Grace in front, 4-1. The Maroons battled back and at the end of the period trailed by 4-6. Grace continued to hold the advantage in the second quarter and the teams took the intermission with Coach Peterson's outfit on the front end of a 11-8 score. In the third period play became faster and more furious, foul shots took up considerable time, and the Maroons gradually pulled up into a 17-16 lead when Callahan made good two free tries. But Grace wasn't to be licked.

When the final chapter opened Warren made a follow-up shot, Masters added a free try and R. Hyatt caged a long one to put Grace ahead. With six minutes left to play, both teams became more erratic than ever. Callahan added two points from the foul line for Asheville's and the game's final markers, but both outfits, in the final four minutes, missed try after try at the hoop. A traveling penalty cost the Maroons a field goal, and faulty passes proved costly to each club.
