The Press Convention con vention convened in Newberne the past week. The city of Elms gave the editors a hospitable re ception. We regret that The Tar HEEL was not represented, but our ' engagements were such as to prevent our attending. . The new1 wire screens which have been placed in front of the library windows, to protect the glass from stray balls are very ac ceptable. To say the least it is not a little disturbing to have a base ball come crashing in at one's head while buried in deep reflection over some musty tome. The new catalogues for '92-93 have arrived. Wen note n o changes in the five regular courses except that the department Geol ogy is enlarged and made more practical. It is now on an equal footing with the other courses. There are some changes in the "brief courses." . The. table en rollment is 316 as follows: Fel low, 1; Graduates, n ; Seniors, 29; Juniors, 33; Sophomores, 56; Freshmen, 86; Optional and S$e cialj 355 Law, 53; Medicine, 17. Total 316. Dr. Winston, ever active and energetic, has been , doing good work for the University and the cause of education in general during the . past week. He ad dressed the citizens of Cleveland county Thursday in the Court House at Shelby on 4 'Education". And on Friday in the Couit House at Monroe he spoke to the people of Union county on the same subject. We learn from the papers that the attendance was large and that the President in his usual happy style made fin ished and instructive lectures. Now that the base ball season is practically closed with us for this term, it may be of interest to review our Football outlook for the coming fall. We will be gin with fine material and there is no reason wny our team should not make as good a record as that of last year. . While w2 will loose several of our star players, yet most of the old team will, return. Hoke who has captained the team so successfully for the past two years and who was such a safe ground garner at half will not be with us next session. ' He will go to the University of Virginia to Study medicine. Another serious loss behind the line is Shaw. It will be difficult to fill these two places with men who possess their coolness and judgment, two requisites so necessary for a suc cessful back. Barnard at quarter and Devin at half will be on hand to uphold the white and the blue. ' And among our substitute backs, Bas- keryille, Stanley and Stephens will return. Stanley and Steph ens developed into remarkably good players in one season's play ing and with their past year's ex perience they ought to develop into excellent helps. Especially do we think that Stephens with proper coaching can make a fine half back. He possesses the qual ifications necessary. His weight, agility and activity can be used to great advantage. . We will be seriously crippled at both ends as we loose both Biggs and Gibbs who have played those positions so well for two years. However there is a possibility of Merritt who was ' substitute end, returning to the Hill next fall. And Whedbee who was on the eleven of '91 will be here. Our three centre men, Murphy, Kirk patrick and Snipes will again hold our lines as solid as a stone wall. Of the Tackles, we are sorry not to have Pus:h back with us, but Little, Guion and Currie may be relied upon to hold their own another season. Woo ten's valuable services as substitute centre will be missed. With such good material as a basis, Captain Barnard will be able to put forth an eleven that will be an honor to the Universi ty and whose victories will equal our brilliant record of last fall, we expect to do more than "goose egg" every team we meet on the gridiron, which the eleven of '92 did. All honor to Captain Hoke and his gallant crew and may their successors meet with the same success. PERSONAL. Miss 5 Rachel Simms of Dur ham is on a visit to Miss Lizzie Harris.
