AN EVEN BREAK Carolina Showed Up Well in Second I Work of Widen Carolina redeemed herself on Tues day and took revenge for Monday's loss bl easily defeating Davidson, 10 to 5. At no time was the issue in doubt, and in only one inning were the visitors at all able to reach Harper. In this round they touched him up heavily, but, during the remainder of the evening lie pitched well. His hit ting and fielding were likewise far above the average. The hitting hon ors of the game fall to Wideman, who secured four singles out of five chances. The new arrangement of the infield worked well, and Foxworth marked his shift to second by robbing a man of a hit. Watts made a big league throw from center, nailing a nian at home. For Davidson, Kluttz made a pretty catch in left. Official score: DAVIDSON.

Ia game abounding in errors Carolina was defeated on Monday by Davidson College. The game was a lamentable affair, both from Caro lina's standpoint and. that of the spec tators. Harper pitched a fair game, and~ with better support wvould have won out, as neither of his opponents pulled off any remarkable pitching stunts.

In a game which was several times won and lost, and finally lost beyond recall, Carolina was overcome by the A. & M. of N. C. baseball team. The exhibition, in the words of a member of the faculty, "was not calculated to make a sick man feel better." Up to the third inning it looked like a big day for Carolina, but from that time on to the final session, the University (Continued on Page Two.) Reconstruction in South Carolina. Last, Thursday night in the chapel Prof. Yates Snowden gave the second of his series of lectures on "Recon struction in South Carolina." Prof. Snowden is one of the best informed persons in the State on this period of South Carolina's history, and the in terest awakened by his previous lec tre insuired a large auidience on Thursday. Prof. Snowden gives one more lecture during the year, wvhich is being eagerly lookedt forward to. CIARLFSTON COLLf6E DFEATED IN FAST GAME. Carolina Plays Good Ball. Collede Boys Played Well But Were Outclassed. In a fast game with Charleston Col lege on Thursday Carolina annexed another victory. The game occupied only an hour and twenty-five minutes. The Charleston boys got a very bad start, having five runs piled up against them in the first three innings. The entire Carolina team hit the ball hard, Havird and McMillan being the chief offenders, and the infield showed a re turn to its old-time form. For the College Simons furnished the feature with a smashing single during an over population of the bases. Lowman played a neat game at short after the first inning and. started a fast double play. The last part of the game was marred by the off-color work of his majesty, the umpire. In justice be it said, however, he slaughtered both teams indiscriminately. Score: Caro lina, 8; College of Charleston, 4. Batteries: Charleston-Levi and von Kolnitz; Carolina-Shiaw, Harper. and. Foxworth and Belser. Shakespeare Readind. On last Saturday night in the Uni versity chapel, Mr. Hannibal A. Wil liams delighted a large audience with his interpretation of "King Henry IV." The reading was held under the auspices of the Euphradian and Clariosophic Literary Societies and proved a real treat to all lovers of Shakespeare. Mr. Williams came to the University with the highest recoin mendations, and he more than ful filled all expectations. His charac terization of Falstaff was quite nota ble, and this always interesting char acter became almost a reality in his hands. The reading was thoroughly enjoyed, and the societies are to be congratulated upon securing Mr. 'Wil liams' services. Glee Club Goes to Winthrop. On April 4, the University Glee Club journeyed to Rock Hill, where its members took part in the reception of the juniors to the class of 1910 at Winthrop College. The songsters acquitted themselves admirably, and added greatly to the enjoyment of the evening. The class plays and singing took place in the auditorium in the main building. After the perform ance supper was served, at which the Carolina boys likewise acted with great credhit to themselves and alma mater, subduing quite a quantity of supplies. The club returned Tuesday evening, every member having enjoyed himself to the utmost.
