BASE-BALL PROSPECTS.
The season of the goal kicker
is past. "The pig-skin rests snug

Something must be done to give j
the athlete exercise and the edi

eternal revolution of things in the
sporting world is baseball. What
are our prospects? As yet we

in getting to work. We do so
once again, with the hope that
this, our last appeal, will bear
some fruit. The matter of organi
zation of the Board should, have
been effected in the fall, so that
by this time a great part of the
work would have been completed.
As it is, the editors have delayed
and the same experience of last
year awaits them. This matter
should not be delaved loneer. if
they hope to have any success.
If we are to have a Hellenian this
year, the University cannot afford
to wait any longer. If you are
going to do your work, gentle
men, do it; if not, why resign
and let some one that will do it
undertake the work. :

of the Wilmington Messenger,

In commenting upon the game

the Wake Forest Student says
that 'they knew we would beat
them, but they, .in contrast to

inevitable. It is a pity that all
colleges who participate in athlet
