That score of Tech vs. Cum berland reminls us more of a three inning baseball game. It make no di fference who wins the world series we're goin' to beat Wofford. "THERE'S A REASON" New ber'ry College brought its football team or rather a foot ball team down on last Saturday and with a dr'ive that could not be stopped befeated the Carolina team 10 to 0. Newberry out played us in every phase of the game, and as far as playing was concerned well deserved the ViC tory. The showing of the team from up north was somewhat surprising to the supporters of Carolina. But, as Mr. Kellogg says, "there's a reason." We have always prided our selves on being game losers, and if it were not a pet hobby of ours to clean up athletics no mention would be made of the affair last Saturday, except an unbiased write-up. We have every rea son to be strong supporters of a clean team, for no school ever passed through a more success ful year of unclean football than we did last year. This we ad mit, and don't deny that we are ashamed of it. We are proud to say, though, that we have cor rected our errors and the team we have this year is truly a Car olina one and we challenge any person or persons, in this State or outside, to prove anything otherwise. Newberry is a real good c;l lege, no doubt. We did not know, though, that its reputation was so wide-spread that it press ed its irresistible attractiveness as far north as Ohio. The strange thing about it, too, is that these applicants from far away are all well seasoned football players. As some one said, "They've been playing football for some time and are playing good yet." We have not said that these young men are "ringers," be cause we don't know and have not the time to investigate it, but it does look funny, doesn't it? When the instructors and alumni of an institution stand on an athletic field and brag with great gusto on their team of questionable eligibility, when they admit that "There are five ringers on the team, but no one down South can prove it, for we are too slick for you," it would not take long for a reasonable man to see that the team, if not crooked, is unquestionably warp ed. Not long since we attended a minstrel show and in the midst of the performance one of the players had an attack of epilepsy and fell foremost off the stage. The leading comedian in attempt ing to rescue the audience said, "'It's nuttin serious, ladies and gemmen, jes ah lil stage fright." Carolina has a good, honest foot ball team and the defeat Satur day was only the result of a lit tie stage fright. She is coming back and she is coming back strong. When she has a chance to give a show against an un doubtedly clean team, our hopes will rekindle. Our sympathy goes out to those who must meet the Lutherans. IVISITfNG (CARD1S. 5() FOR 75w. Dr. Chas.
