COLUMBIA SEMI-PROS DEFEAT CAROLINA First Practice Game of Season Lost by Two Runs. In the first practice game of the season, Carolina was defeated Tuesday by a team composed of professionals and semi-pros of Columbia by the score of 6 to 4. The Columbia club made four more runs in the eighth inning, but as the University team d not have their half of the in ning, the score reverted back to the seventh. Coach Smith went in the game not so much to win as to see what the men could do in a real game, and he gave every man i on the squad a chance to show what there was in him. He ex pressed himself as well pleased with the showing his men made and believes that the Gamecock team will give all competitors a. run for their money. For Caro lina Clark and Horton showed up well with the stick. The pitching staff displayed excel lent form, especially Martin, the big fellow showing worlds of steam. At the beginning .of the season the box artists gave Coach Smith no little worry, but in Adams, Flowers, Martin and Smith he has a strong staff. Coach Smith caught for the leaguers and played a magnifi cent game. Doug Harbison. manager of the Columbia league team last year, also played well, securing three hits. Milne. Hill' and Sutton worked in the box, and gave the University boys their first chance to bat against real good pitching this season. The score by innings follows:. R. H. E.
