D. Lee, Scorer. Carolina Defeated Carolina By the close score of 3 to 2, the Alumni Stars trounced Carolina's 'varsity last Wednesday. The old timers demonstrated the fact that they do not belong to the "has been" class. The student body wishes that some of the Stars would return to their Alma Mater and take post-graduate wvork. Coach Richard Reed's stick work made the Stars shine brighter and Childs on short added considerably to their luminosity. Edmunds made a one-hand stab at a fly in deep centre, landed it, and threw a runner out at second, making a double play which would have cdone credit to any leaguer. TP. Jones, who wvas loaned the alumni, pitched a creditable game. The whole game spelled hard luck for the 'varsity. It might have been won except for a wvild throw. The 'varsity led the alumn1l by several hits. The line-tip follows: Alumni-Zimmarman. 3h- Childs ETICS ss; Reed, 2b; Cogburn, ib; Belser, cf; T. Jones, p; Benet, rf; Edinunds, If; Swygert, c.

An admission of ten cents was charged. But after auctioning off three tickets and re ceiving sixteen cents for the three, Manager Ashley threw the gates open, and the collegians who had secured holes at the fence streaked in. The gates were then closed, and Assistant Manager J. H. Cooper began to an nounce to the ladies in the grandstand the names of the men who had not paid. The treasury was immediately increased, and it is rumored that the seniors will come out almost even after the show is over. As for the game, it was a superb exhibition of what baseball should not be. Carter, for the Junior, and Callison, for the Seniors, played the leading parts. "Dad" was much grieved at his inability to swallow the high balls which came his way in the course of play. Carter made the greatest hit of the evening, and played his part flawlessly. Johnson played the heroine and trapped three fast ones in left. For the Seniors, Colcock started off handling the pellet, but he got his dose after three innings, and McLau rin was substituted. Mack tossed in fine style, yielding only forty-seven hits in four innings. The Juniors were unable to land on him, and one man out of every nine was forced to retire without reaching first. For the Juniors, Claudius Napoleon Sapp hurtled the leather with astounding effectiveness. In the ninth he yielded to Lumpkin, who had been playing the game of his life on short. To mention all of the stars would take a full sheet of this worthy peri odical. Suffice it to say that all of the Juniors and all of the Seniors starred. Sullivan on third, Hammond on first, McDonald in left, Orr receiving, and Sapp in the box, were the particular solar luminaries of the Juniors; while Epps behind the bat, Webster on first, Havird on short, and Johnson in left outshone the other Seniors. The official score is a secret, but it is rumored that the runs stood 19 to 3 for the Juniors. Gresham umpired the game, and he is expected to re turn all of his decisions with full ar guments attached before he leaves -the hospital. These teams are arranging to play another game at an early (late, and those who expect to attend should obtain tickets at the first opportunity. Illustrated Lectures The University has purchased a p)ortable arrangement for p)roducing acetylene gas to be' used with the stereopticon lantern when illust rated lectures are given. It is nowv an easy matter to carry this anywhere. Any school in the State that wishes to have a lecture with .or without the lantern, from any of the departments, may ob tain it by writing to the president. When the school is not able to pa~y the express, the University sends the lecturer -and pays his expenses. This is a Very fine movement on the part of the (acuity and it is to be hoped that the schools of the State will take advantac of it.
