DOWNS STATE, 17-0 By the Associated RALEIGH, October 16 Overcoming a brilliant offensive, which in the first quarter appeared threat- ening, the Tar Heels of lina University terday downed the North_ Carolina State, 17 to 0, in the annual renewal of the fair-week foot | ball classic. It had been predicted that Carolina would defeat State. but the.size of the score was a distinct surprise. The University simply outplayed the Tech- men. A dazzling offensive which unloosed in the first quarter carried the ball down the field to the 10-yard line. where the Carolinians held, mainly because of Robinson's excel lent work. He broke up two attempt- ed passes and robbed State of the prospective score. This ended the State offensive and for the remainder of the game, the cffective offensive work was on the Carolina side, with State’s line crumbling. During the game State made only 4 first downs to Carolina’s 14. orth Caro- ! State | mostly | LEADING GRID GAMES, CARDED TOMORROW Local Teams. Maryland vs. Virginia Poly, Grifiith Stadium, 2:30.

MANY MARKS BROKEN DURING TITLE FRAYS By the Associated Prese. PITTSBURGH, October 16.—Rec- ords were broken thick und fast in the Pirates’ world series battle with Washington.

Peck's homer yesterday increased | the two-club total to 12, eclipsing the former record of 10, set by the Yan- kees and Gilants in 1923, while Washington's eight round trippers also set up a new one-club standard for a single series.
