ASSERTS SOUTH FOOTBALL TEAMS NATION’S BEST Southerner Says Fastest Football In Nation Is Played In South By George Kirksey (VP Sta Correspondent • Nev York. Nov. 9 (U.R) -Take it from a southerner who follows the game closely, the fastest foothall in the country is played in—the south. Bob Mabry, North Carolina's ballyhoo man who is in town to see his team play Fordham this Saturday. speaking: "We have two genuine Rose Bowl contenders in the south this season in Duke and Tennessee. Duke, with only North Carolina State left, has practically clinched the southern conference title. Os course, Duke has Syracuse and Pittsburgh left to play in intersectional games but the sentiment in our section is that the Blue Devils will win both games. "Duke has just hit its real stride after being handicapped by injuries all season. With George McAfee. who was out most of the season with a bad foot, and Harry Tipton, who was out of two games with a shoulder injury, in shape, the Duke attack will pick up plenty from now on. Os course, you know Duke is the only major team in the country with a perfect defensive record.

No one paid much attention to Ten1. nessee before the season started. This is because Tennessee doesn't make any attempt to publicize its i team or players.” M. hry ranks Aiaoama. Tulane, Louisiana State, Mississippi, and * North Carolina as good enough to give any team a busy afternoon. ' • The trend in southern football is , to more passing and wide-open play. Mabry said. He attributed that trend to coaches like Raymond (Bear) Wolf, who came to North Carolina from Texas Christian. and Ray Morrison, who was at Southern Methodist before com-' ing to Vanderbilt. "North Carolina attribute this partially to Wolf. Wade is much like Dr. Sutherland of Pitt. He won't pass unless he has to and Wolf has made him go to the air by his successful aerial game at North Carolina Both of Duke's touchdowns against North Carolina were set up by passes.” Skimming over the cream of the j crop, Mabry mentioned the following as outstanding players in the south: Dan Hill. Duke center; Steve Maronic. North Carolina tackle: George Watson. North Carolina's blocking back; Tony I Gallovitch, Lake Forest back: Bronco Brunner. Tulane halfback; Ed Winzell. Tulane end: Vic Bradford. Alabama quarterback; Perron Schoemaker. Alabama end; Charles Woods. Clemson center; Junius Page. Georgia Tech halfback: George Cafego, Tennessee halfback; Tony O’Mara. Duke fullback. and Ty Coon. North Carolina State tackle. “These are by no means all the south's standouts.'' said Mabry, “but are only a few of the really flue players I personally can recommend. Louisiana State. Vanderbilt. Mississippi and others have some great players but 1 have no Teal Hue Utl ihetii. As for subsidizing and proselyting. Mabry feels that the endency in the south is toward mure frankness and less attempt to hide the facts pertaining to aid for athletes.

Nov. 9 — (U.R) — There are two accepted methods by which a visitor to Atlanta can find the British amateur golf. champion One is to stand at Five Points.' the center of town, until a fellow , passes who has a drawl as soft I as a cottort boll, a smile as wide as a furrow, and all the naturalness of Jeeter Lester swinging down Tobacco Road. That’s be Charlie Yates. The other method is to wetid vour way through the marble i halls and formidable cages of the First National Bank until you I find Banker Yates at his desk, buried as deep in financial reports as he ever was in a Saint Andrews bunker.

Charley said. "If there weren’t any Saturdays or Sundays in the week. I'd just sell ray clubs. I wouldn't have any use for ’em.” Did that mean. I inquired of Banker Yates, that he didn't plan to defend the British amateur at Liverpool next summer. “No.” he answered. "I am going to try and get over there with the cup and see if I can defend it. 1 reckon the bank can hold together while I am off on a vaca- j tion. I'm not exactly on the board of directors you know" With the originality for which I am noted. I asked Charlie what he thought of his chances to keep the cup. Minus zero plus nothing if I don't start putting prettj soon That's what won it for me in Scotland. I couldn't miss the cup then, and now I couldn't knock .i basketball in a well. Wasn't I owful at Oakmont? I reckon if you play golf long enough putting will gradually run you crazy Oue day. one minute, even, you're hot on the greens, and the next nothing will go down." If he goes abroad next summer an important and treasured part of his luggage will be the long underwear that Bobby Jones t:w to it he carried the last time. Charley believes Bobby's insist ence on his wearing the lengthy but warm lingerie was almost as much a factor in his winning as his putting. “You know." Charley said, as if suddenly remembering something. "you know, come to think about it. Bobby didn't give me those lon gdrawers, he just lent ‘ 'em to me. I guess 1 oughta take ’em back to him But I don't c

DOUBTS GIRL'S KIDNAP STORY Bloomington Officials Refuse To Ask Aid Os G-Men Bloomington. Ind., Nov. 9 —(U.R) — Police Chief Claude Myers today refused to ask aid of federal ! agents In the strange “kidnap" j ease of Mary Mellinger, pretty, 21-year-old Indiana university art student. because he said It could not be definited us a kidnaping. Arthur S. Mellinger, father of the girl who was found In a cave near here after two men held her captive more than 25 hours, suggested that G-men investigate and that police follow possibilities his ; daughter was kidnaped by a "white slave ring.” Two university students found the only clues police admittedly were investigating. They were an empty box which had contained sleep-producing tablets, a girl's beret, and a woman's purse in which was 75 cents and some bobby pins. Myers said the box had been sold at a local drug store and the tablets probably had been used by Miss Mellinger's assailants to drug her. The girl when found was in an hysterical condition and later said she had been drugged, bound and gagged, and held in the cave all night by one of the men. She said she entered their automobile tn Bloomington when they asked to be guided about the campus. Miss Mellinger still was confined to a hospital, although a statement from the office of the dean of women at Indiana university said she was expected to return to her studies soon.

Larrabee in the 11th district has a lead of 3.300 votes with the totals nearing completion. A rush of new precinct reports from out-state this morning phnnped down Van Nuys’ overnight lead, and brought Willis a margin for the first time since the veto tabulation really got under way.
