Twice we filled the bases with no to slide or the understanding to realize that; they will be found wanting when the opportunity one out, and twice we had men comes. ,To my mind, nothing calls for the earnestness and ca pabilities of a ball player, or for a more thorough knowledge of the game than good base-running, and when you find a team that runs bases well, you will find them good and lively in other respects, with plenty of team-work.

It seems from the last issue of the TarTHeel that the same old U. N. C. failing, listlessness and inexcusable lazyness coupled with an inordinate conceit that our teams can win Without half try ing, has made its annual appear ance, I believe every alumnus puts more Store by the Virginia game than all the rest put together. It is the loss or yictory in that game which is the criterion of the sea son. That game will always be close, so close, indeed, that every little detail will count in the score. To acquire the ability in every detail, calls not only for a thor ough understanding of the game, but the most earnest and persist ent work. It is a duty that every j aspirant for the team owes to him self and his Alma Mater. He is very dense who cannot profit by the experience of others and above all by his own. In '91, when the nine danced until two o'clock -the night before the game, and suffered a most humiliating de feat at the hands of Wake Forest, we learned a valuable lesson. In my opinion the lesson learned last - spring . by, the defeat from Vir- 011 second and third with only one out. Of those ten chances when a single hit would ' have scored two runs, we failed to -get it. The popular opinion was that our. defeat was due to "hard, hard luck." " He is a poor ball player who places the defeat on luck alone. I would like to ask those who saw the game, do they remember; when, after the base-runner got back to first safely, he got off the bag, some six feet in foul ground, when Smith had the ball? And! Devin followed with -a hit, and Gray a three bagger? One run thrown away. When a long fly was hit to right and the runner 011 third stood half way down the line and watched Rhett catch it ? Another run lost. When a runner trying to come home on a sacrifice, stopped ten feet from the plate to see where the ball was, and was put out by the closest possible decision. One more run lost.' When Virginia had men on second and third, and the ball was hit to short and thrown to first just too late to catch the bat A, A, KLUirZ'S AT THE GLASS FROT IS HEADQUARTERS FOR All the Books used in the University " - AND THE COMMON SCHOOLS.

Can any one who watched the practice games last year and saw the listless, lazy base-running and the loose indifferent coaching, fail to see that that game was lost a month before it was played ? Can .any one who saw our otherwise excellent first baseman walk after an overthrown ball in the practice games or wait on his bag until one of the crowd threw it to him, want any better reason for his blunder in the big game ? Will the team this year, learn the lesson? If they do, it is worth the defeat. Do they real ize, as the lesson teaches, that the play in a game will be like the practice? A lazy practice and a'sharp game are impossibil ities. And, also, that no depart ment of the game can be slighted; that those who fail to study and T J.
