Varney was regular catcher for two years at the University of North Carolina, and he spent about half of lasi season with the Ka leigh Capitals of the Carolina League. Varney played single wing football under Coach Carl Suavely at Carolina, and he has been coaching the at Presbyterian, but he hasn't announced yet whether Elon will go altogether for either system. Last year Mallory used a mixture of two formations, but he installed the Maryland style split completely in winter practice.

Varney said he hopes 10 move into this area in the very near future to start mapping plans for next fall. Football practice is barred by conference rules until September 1. Burlington lost one of the most popular coaches it has ever known today when Warren Burns bade his friends farewell and left for the farm. Burns, William High basketball coach, resigned at the end of last cage season and announced that he planned to take up farming in Northampton County, near Jackson. Burns declared just before leaving that he appreciated the support he has had here, and added that it was difficult to "pull up slakes" to leave.

"I'll be coming back to visit," he said, "and Burlington people will always be welcome down on the farm." Burns and his family expect to move into a new house about six miles from Jackson next month.

The new code puts every pub lie school in North Carolina under the anie rules regarding ase limit, scholastic eligibility, and many oilier technical points. Previously, the state rules only applied to school Athletic Association which will continue to function Now. however, every school will have to fall in line regardless of whether it is a member of any conference or plays for any championship. Throughout the years many schools in scattered sections of the state have refused to join the state backed conferences, and thus have made their own rules.

These are the schools that will suffer for a year or two when new regulations are enforced. Plenty of faults have already been discovered in administration of the code, but the problems can be worked out gradually and a better program will result. Appointment of an enforcement director is not slated to affect the status of L. J. (Hap) Perry, secretary of the N.

C. H. S. A. who will continue to plan championship events for members of the Association.
