Despite the fumble habit, and a slow the Tar Heels completely outplayed the Nittany Lions by amassing a total of 162 yards rushing as to their opponents' 70, and chalking up nine first downs to the easterners' five. Spirited Club Victory in the first home game was a tribute to the Navy Carolina outfit, which, in high spirit, had to force its way back into national prominence after a disastrous defeat by Georgia Tech the week before.

The Tar Heels played the visitors on even terms until Billy Myers broke the ice with, three minutes remaining in the first half, when he ran around left end for six yards the first tally of the game. Myers' Runback This blow to the Lions climaxed a 32 yard march, set up when Myers ran back a Penn State punt 21 yards. Carolina then rolled through two first downs, behind the heel-kicking of Rodgers, Fitch and Myers, before the shifty tailback crossed pay dirt on the third down, with six yards for a score. Early in the second half, the Tar Heels began to click against a strong forward wall and turned two pass interceptions into two touchdowns to conclude the day's fireworks.

Coach Lange is still uncertain on his starters Saturday, since he may have the pick of several reserves of the varsity squad. Carolina's stance with Duke, which opened the short Jayvee schedule, may make Coach Lange's team a real threat to the Marine-warriors who have a host of pro and all-star players listed on their roster. Rescheduling This game was originally scheduled for last Friday night, but was moved up so the squad could work with the Carolina varsity.

Due to their infrequent practice together, Coach Lange will have to brush up the squad in the few remaining days of practice to provide a real test for the Marines. Remaining Contests This game will highlight the Jayvees' season with the only other games scheduled with Duke and Camp Davis. Sparking the Tar Heels' attack against the Duke's White eleven were Rockholz, Weant, Koisinki and Dewell in the backfield, while many of the line stalwarts will be on hand for the Le-jeune tussle.

S. North Carolina Intramural team has contributed three of the lucky seven with 127 pound Burch-field, Gardner in the 145 pound class, and Hooper who is after the heavyweight crown. Gilliam is the Dolphin's 145 pound choice and 127 pound Wil-helm of the Commandoes, and heavyweight Parker of Battle, are the two Marine contenders who seem most likely to take titles. The U. S.

Shaw team holds the final candidate of the Coach's choice in 135 pound Koustenis. Tennis Finals The finals in tennis have been reached and will be played off in the near future with Bill Sharkey of the Black-hawks contesting Marc Pope, a Dread-naught.

It will be the same team that Duke ran over in the opening game of the season, but since that time the Marines have made a better showing. Stocked with a large group of veterans, experienced from various colleges all oyer the nation, the Devil Dogs will be hitting for the win column.

Starters The Jayvees team, coached by Bill Lange, will be centered around the starters of their previous contest with Duke's White squad two weeks ago. Since that time the team has been EMMA mS This Store Will Be Closed SATURDAY Because of Jewish Holidays "Frills Benning, 13-7, hr their first two games while losing a close contest to the V-12 Miami crew last Saturday, 6-0. Fullback Sanzotta Leading the Raiders will be Dominic Sanzotta, regular fullback for the Detroit Lions last year, a heavy addition to the squad as a fast, hard driving back who can pass the ball with accuracy, and for distance. Gus Letchas, the ex-Georgia triple threat, is averaging 52 yards a punt and may prove a thorn in the weak booting Tar Heels' side. He is a power runner whose quickness and dodging skill make him hard to tackle, and his passing ability rounds out his triple versatility rating.

Line Stalwarts Fred Ellis, ex-Wisconsin tackle, who played for the great Iowa Pre-Flight eleven last year, is the bulwark on the line. Ellis is 200 pounds of speed and dynamite on the offense and defense. His running mate, Corporal Bill Short, is the tallest man on the squad, standing six feet four, and weighing 212. Rounding out the NATTC backfield at Chapel Hill will be Sgt. Duke Iverson from Oregon, who with Sanzotta provides the blocking, and either Don For-tier, the ex-Tulane flash, or speedy Brad Davis from Arkansas State.

Center Post The standouts up front for the Raid- ers tnus lar ftave been Urad JEcklaud, giant blond center who thrives on activity and has ball hawking ability to worry opponents' defenses. Lou Campbell, ex-Southwestern star, will probably handle one of the guard posts, with John Hanzel, of Villanova, filling up the other. Jim Williams, a 200 pound end from South Carolina, is a sure starter at an end spot because of his experience and love for rough going. The Tar Heels have been spending the week's practice periods brushing up on rushing defenses, running off Jacksonville plays, and preparing a better line-bucking offense. Bernie Rohling, fullback star, has re turned to the fold after breaking his infirmary bounds, but Bob Elliott and Jack Hussey are still invalids.

The Athletic Association announced early this week that reserved tickets for this contest may be purchased for $2.00. Holders of block fee and student tickets were reminded to enter gate 6 this Saturday along with the ASTP members who have purchased the $4.00 special season pass. Grid Forecasts Continue to Offer Lucrative Prizes The Tar Heel and VARSITY football prediction contest swings into its second week of the 1943 season, with the listing of ten games to be played on October 9. The first week's entries, numbering over 400, were practically all consistent in calling a Carolina victory, but it was unpredictable Princeton, which came from an embarrassing loss the year before to conquer Columbia 27-6, which eliminated the majority of would-be "experts." Lawrence MacKirdy, 210 Pittsboro took first prize honors of $5.00 in cash by picking all the games correctly, guessing four scores exactly, and missing the Carolina victory by only one point. Paul Cohn, John Paul Jones Hall, the second prize winner, forecasted all the winners, but was able to name but one tally correctly.

Entry blanks for this week's contest may be picked up at Graham Memorial, the Tar Heel, office, or at the VARSITY. All blanks must be dropped in the prediction box at the VARSITY, 149 Franklin before one o'clock Saturday afternoon. ooperafciorP ctober 11 necuve Your Government feels that cleaning is essential and has declared it so in crowded military districts.
