DUKE HAS EXPERIENCE
Blue Devils Rated
As Being Big, Strong
BY TED MANN
Duke Sports Publicist
There are some real men on this up-coming I)uke University foot.
ball team--men who believe that the easiest way to the goal line is to
take the ball and run over the opposition. Of course, the oppositior
will have something to say about this but the way it stands now th(
Blue Devils will be big, strong and powerful--a hit slow maybe
but we repeat "big, strong and powerful."
With such tried and true boys in the middle of the line as Roy
lord, Buzz Guy, Tom Topping, and Wade Byrd and a bevy of fine
backs in Harold McElhaney, Phil Dupler, Wray Carlton, Eddie Rush.
ton, Skitch Rudy, George Dutrow and Bobby Honeycutt, the Blue
Devils are not likely to "roll over and play dead" this fall.
The top performers for the All-America pickers (and not neces.
sarily in the order named) should be Wray Carlton, junior halfback;
Harold McElhaney, senior fullback; Roy Hord, senior guard; Toni
Topping, senior tackle; and Bill Thompson, senior end.
If all material now on hand is available this fall, Duke will hav
the equipment to execute the split-T system to the highest degree
There are backs who can run up the middle or around the ends; there
- are boys who can pass and those who can receive.
Let's hear from Coach Murray on the situation: "We had a very
enthusiastic spring practice and we feel we will have a spirited, well
organize(d squad with enough experienced candidates at each position
to field at least one good team.
"Our big problem this fall is to replace a truly great quarterback<
in Sonny Jorgensen and six starters from our first team line.
"Though we are optimistic as to our chances to have a good team
we realize more than anyone else that our prospects depend a lot or
having all of our good football players back with us this fall and free
from injuries during the season because at many places there is not
much depth."

'akhtiar and the Cavaliers
Jim Bakhtiar, the native of Iran
who is now a citizen of the United
States, has given head coach Ben
Martin and the remainder of the
Cavalier squad much inspiration
for a somewhat successful season.
Bakhtiar, who gained 733
yards as a sophomore and 879
last year to rank among the na
tion's leaders, will be leading
the Virginia crew from his full
back position. His ACC single
game rushing record of 210
yards is in the record books.
Another backfield fixture which
pives Martin high hopes is quar
lerback Nelson Yarbrough, who
led the conference in passing last
year. Yarbrough is a left-handed
passer and was perennial trouble
o Virginia opponents in '56.
Martin also is looking forward
to a lot of help from some rising
<ophonores. Leading soph pros

Wake Forest's Deacon*
Coach Paul Amen, who was
amed the Atlantic Coast Confer
nee 'coach of the year' by the con
Crence sports writers although
is team only won two of ten
ames, has a number of problems
o solve if his team is going to be
threat in the ACC.
Wake Forest has 16 lettermnen
returning and 12 non-lettermen-.
but problems are still pre.ent.
The major problem appear. to
be in the backfield, where the
Deacons no longer have the
hard-charging fullIback lIill

America teams the .tarting right
halfback, Dick Daniel., and the
