The most beautiful game of baseball ever played in North Carolina, between college teams, took place in Raleigh, at the Ath letic Park, last Wednesday, where the universities of Vermont and North Carolina crossed bats. The day was just perfect for a game, and quite a large crowd of Raleigh people came out to witness, the event. The features of the game were the six beautiful catches of Robertson in center field, the battery work of the imiversities, and the brilliant double plays of Stanley, Gray and Devin. La nier and Oldham were the bat tery for the "Tar Heels;" Pond and Stewart for the Green Moun tain boys. The game was un doubtedly the prettiest ever seen in the State, and the team work of the Carolinians was clean, strong, beautiful, .in fact they surpassed themselves, and played an errorless game. The Vermont team was undoubtedly the strong est team that our boys ever have met, and is certainly the best they will meet this season. North Carolina made her single run in the first inning and Ver mont made her two in the third. The result of the game shows that we can play ball, and should certainly be regarded as a fair test of the merits of the team. It is to be regretted that our team has no official scorer, and for that reason we cannot give a detailed account of the game by innings. The official score of the game was as follows: L.

The Vermonts and our team reached the Hill 'Thursday morn ing on a special train from Ral eigh. A hard rain continued all the morning and a more thor oughly disagreeable day could not be imagined. The game was called at 2:15 during the rain which did not cease during the game. Consequently the ground was wet, muddy and slippery and the ball was hard to throw, yet despite these facts, there was a fine exhibition of , ball playing and the contest was close and ex citing to the finish. Vermont did not reach first base until fifth inning when they scored two runs. North Carolina scored two runs in third and the game was a tie until seventh inning, in which our boys went to pieces making three errors and letting in three runs. We did not add to our score and the Green Mountain boys made one run in eight by our errors. The game was call ed at end of eight inning as the visitors had to catch the train. The score being 5 to 2 in favor of the visitors. The features of the game, were Woodward's running catch of Devin's line hit to cen tre and Busbee's catch of high fly in right and pretty throw to home cutting off a run. Old ham's throwing to second was perfect. Stephens pitched a fine game, for though the ball was wet, only five hits, all singles, be ing made off of him, two of which were scratched hits. Cooke did good work for the visitors in the box, only three hits going to our credit. Kuesella caught him in good shape. Both pitchers were a little wild, owing to the wet ball and score of the errors were due to the same fact. For the visitors, the batting of Pond was the best and for the home team, that of Robertson. Our base running was careless, due to bad line coaching. There should always be a coach at third and first. .Let us be more careful of this in the future.

WAKE FOREST vs. UNIVER SITY On Friday our nine meets Wake Forest at Raleigh. This is the first championship game of the northern division of the S. I. A. A. As to the 'relative strength of the two teams, we have no way of judging except by hearsay as the teams have not met the same nine (at the time of this writing). On Tuesday and Wed nesday Wake Forest plays Oak Ridge on the former's grounds. We have played four games this season, winning two and losing two to Vermont. Wake Forest has played two games with Peters burg, winning one and losing one. We will probably play the same men as on the Vermont game in Raleigh, except that Stephens will occupy the box for us instead of Lanier. A large delegation will go down from here to see the game, and a&i rangements are on foot to secure a special train to bring the crowd back the same evening. The winner of this game plays Uni versity of Virginia in Lynchburg on the 29th inst. , and the winner" of the Lynchburg game meefcs'the winners of the Hopkins - Sri Johns game to decide who shall meet the champion of the SbutTi ern division to contend for 'the1 final pennant of the Association.'
