WE LOST AND WON. \When the last ball was pitched last Monday, And the bats were laid aside, And the crowd went surging out the gates, To spread the story wide, Oh many a heart was sore and sad, In Penn State far away. For Tommy Mc. with his batsmen crack. Had won the game that day. Sam Owens was a catchin,' And a mighty man was he. Big John Mills was pitchin' To the tune of 1-2-3. Reddy \ let ts was huggin' first: At second Boozer played. And Oglesby around third base Was sure on (iress parade. A shorter man played shortstop. And short work of them he made. For everywhere the spheroid flew It seemed that TI'ommy played. Hloney Smith was in left field: In center Popper shied, Fritz Von Kolnitz camped in right, So of course the flies all died. Our sponsors cheered and cheered these men, And naught the sound could drown; 'I'hen Lafayette began to sing, 'The score's turned upside down." They cleaned us up on Tuesday, The score was five to three, You see we beat 'cm Monday, And selfish we wouldn't be, For they were our Yankee visitors, And we were their Southern host, That's why we played 'em even, For we didn't want to boast. The' said we'd treated 'em hand some: The best they'd ever had. Of course it differed in many re spects From the one that we gave their dads, But we made a good impression. And to some it may sound queer, For their captain told manager \Wil liams They'd stay a week next year. --Staff. THE PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH. Who swelled the Gamecock's grow ing fame?

The State of Wednesdav morn ing carried the following story re garding Lafayette's delight with Columbia and the University. La fayet te may spend a week here next spring: "The Lafayette College baseball team may spend about a week in Columbia next spring. The Penn sylvania aggregation was much pleased with the capital city of South Carolina, the Colonia hotel and the treatment accorded them by the University of South Carolina, with whom they finished a series of games yesterday afternoon. The Lafayette team leaves at an early hour this morning for Raleigh, N. C., where they play A. and M. of North Carolina this afternoon. "The weather is so cold at Easton, Pa., that the Lafayette team is al most compelled to seek. warmer cli mate (luring the early spring. The manager of the Keystoners said yes terday that he thought Columbia would be an ideal place for the team to spend about a week pla,.ng games with the University of South Carolina and the Columbia South Atlantic league crew. The present manager graduates in June, but he state(d that he would suggest that his successor follow these ideas. "Last evening at Ridgewood club an in formal (lance was given to the visitors. The team was to leave at 6:50 yesterday afternoon but de cidel to wait until this morning. "The two games played by the University of South Carolina and Lafayette were attended by large numbers. The battle yesterday was extremely spirited and exciting." Where Was the Goat on Tuesday Afternoon? Carolina men vani shed all dloubts as to whether or not they were loyal rooters on the occasion of the games wvith Lafayette. Not once dfid Hloey, Passailaigue or Murphy call for a cheer that it was not answeredl by all with a vim that caused most favorable comment from the La fay et te team. If this spirit wimll con tinue Carolina will have the best recordl'ever mlade, and as one o f the p)rofessors said, "'The supporters are as much the cause of a victory or (defeat as are the p)layers." During the sixth inning Carolina men, lead by Jno. H-oey, proudly led a g-oat to the cheering men and the proverbial expression "We got their goat" held good. Now the one all-absorbing question is, Where was the goat on Tuesday? .
