HATS OFF Hats off to the freshmen! The fighting spirit which they show ed in the battle with the Clem son first year men is worthy of commendation. They soothed in a great measure the sting of Thursday's defeat and showed the state what the future varsity team may be. They fought well from the start, and though several times defeat seemed likely they held their ground with unabated courage. Eleven men were not: alone in their struggle. Behind, them was the "pep" of the class of 1920. This small group cheer ed loudly at all stages of the game, and gave inspiration to the players, without which they could never have conquered. Hats off to the freshmen, our future varsity team. OUR CHANCE Carolina has always been a leader, and in every good cause she is ready to do her share.
