Captain Bill Dodderer was the thorn in the side of the opposing teams at the Atlanta Tournament. Although playing forward, he dropped back into a defensive game and his guarding was of a sensational order to draw the highest praise from Atlanta Scribes. Bill was All Southern center last year and stands an even chance of getting the choice again this year.
“SPRAT” COBB
One of the greatest basketball players the University of North Carolina has ever produced ended his collegiate basketball career as high scorer of the Southern Intercollegiate Tournament for the third time. Cobb has been a tower of strength in the Carolina line-up since he entered the University and finding a man to fill his shoes will be a difficult matter. His playing has been the sensation of the past three tournaments and he has been a unanimous choice for All Southern forward for all three years.
