In the sixth frame they slammed the Biddie hurler for four safe hits, and that netted three runs enough to win the game. Carolina scored in the third without the aid of a single hit. Hamlet, first up, walked. Wood attempted to pick him off first, and li-s snap throw went wide of the Terrier initial sacker's reach. The Biddie center gardener sprinted to second. He made third on a passed ball and came home when Tyner dropped Bruton's fly to right. The home nine tallied again in the seventh. Rhame was on third. Ham let went to bat and when he missed his third strike the catcher missed the ball also. In the confusion that followed, Rhame ran in.

Is the old saying that co-eds, like horses, are men's dumb friends true, and they must be penned tip? Or is It merely a safety device to keep the fam ished girls from rushing to the Burnett hound boys passing along Colleg'e street, begging them for a drink? Whatever is the cause, it is true that workmen are now erecting a fearfully high, strong wire fence around the yard. Large cedar posts, calculated to with stand the onslaught of the co-eds rushing at any object, are set deep in the ground. The galvarnized, large meshed wvire is stretched tight with the aid of a jack and sundry appliances. Possibly barbed wire will be strung at the top, for the ones responsible for the work are taking nio chance with the highi-flying co-eds. Tf any further news should break con eerning this safety device, it will he p)rintedl in The Gamecock. But let us ho'pe that the formidable barrier will (lis rourage even the most desperate of the fair sex.
