THE
UNIVERSITY
FIELD DAY.
Many Records Broken at Contests
Held Saturday.
Field Day was a record-breaking
day, and that's ail there is to it.
Men who expect to wear the N. C.
sweater hereafter because of a re
cord on the track team will have as
hard time getting the privilege as
those who try through the foot
hall and base ball teams, it snows
what work will do; it showed none
the less the intense enthusiasm of
cur gymnasium director, Mr. Cal
der; he has been untiring in his ef
forts to arouse interest in track
athletics, and unstinted praise is
due him. Captain Kornegay also
deserves much credit. He has kept
things lively since his election and
all the "go" amT "vim" we saw in
the races Saturday were due to his
efforts. As for the record-breakers
themselves, "the men behind the
guns," too much praise cannot be
given. They smashed previous
College records unmercifully, and
five new men are proud possessors
of N. C. sweaters in consequence.
The weather was ideal and other
conditions favorable. Several
events were closely contested and
only in two or three was the win
ner's superiority well marked. Os
borne's stumble in the 1,00 yards
dash was unfortunate; he would
have given Kornegay. a close race
otherwise. Reynolds broke the
college record for putting the shot
and also for throwing the hammer.
Osborne was again unfortunate in
"the high hurdle race tho he suc
ceeded in winning easily from Whit
aker by one and a fifth seconds.
I)avis and Brem were the only
contestants in the pole vault, and
Davis succeeded in breaking the
college record by five inches.
All the records were good, and
sufficiently so to warrant our imme
diate entrance into an inter-collegiate
meet. We have the material
now, the incentive has been given,
and nothing remains for us, but to
enter the Southern Association
where we shall have no slight
chance of complete victory.
The summary follows:
100 Yards Dash.
First heat 77on by Kornegay:
Osborne, second: Time, 10 2-5 s.
Second heat Won by Woodson;
Hearn,1 second. Time, 11 2-5 s.
The race was against time so no
final heat was run.
120 Yards High Hurdle.
First heat Won by Osborne;
Mclver, second. Time, 20 2-5 s.
Second heat Won by Whitaker;
Branch, second. Time, 21 3-5 s.
In this race Osborne unfortunate
ly tripped a hurdle so the record
goes to Whitaker, tho Osborne won
first prize.
220 Yards Hurdle.
First heat Won by Kornegay;

High Jump.
There were only .two contestants
and Kellam won easily from Brem
by a jump of 5 ft. 5 in. Kellam
has had very little practice and can
improve on this we venture to pre-
diet. This feat entitles him to
sweater.

FOOTBALL
The Schedule of Games that has
been Arrranged for the Season
of '99.
It is always pleasant to look for
ward from one vear to the next and
enjo3r the pleasure of anticipation.
Hence it will no doubt be of inter
est to all interested in our athletics
and especially to our alumni to
know what may be expected next
fall in foot ball circles.
Manager Jones has been working
hard this spring to arrange for
games next season and so far has
succeeded in making many impor
tant dales. A game with Prince
on University has been definitely
scheduled and this promiseses to
ldd much interest to the work of
next fall's team.
During the first part of the sea
son games will be played with
North Carolina schools and col
leges. Already four of these games
have been arranged for.
Then a game will be played on
Oct. 27, at Chapel Hill, with Uni
versity of Maryland.
On Nov. 8th the team will arrive
at Princeton, N. J. and play the
team from -that place on their own
grounds. Three days will then in
tervene for rest before the 11th
when our team will meet the Uni
versitj' of Maryland team in Balti
more. The date with University o f
Georgia has been made for Nov. ,
30th and Manager Jones is now in
correspondence with other southern
colleges trying to make other dates
for the southern trip. It is hoped
All together next season promi
es to be the most interesting in the
history of our athletics. Th
schedule of games is already a good
one and promises to be better.
W. A. Reynolds will return to
coach the team once more. Upon
this point we congratulate our
selves.
There is no reason whv we should
not even put out a team that wil
make a record surpassing our vie
torious record of last fall if such
thing were possible.
The list of games thus far ar
ranged definitely for the season "99
is as follows:
Oct. 7th A.&M. College, at Chapel Hill
" 14th Guilford College, " "
" 16th Bingham School, " " '
" 21st Davidson College, at Charlotte
" 27th U. of Maryland, at Chapel Hill
Nov. 8th Princeton, at Princeton, N, J
" 11th U. of Maryland, at Baltimore
"30th U. of Georgia, at Atlanta, Ga
The base ball season being over
we look forward to next year's foot
ball team.
From the present indications ath
letic spirit has never been aroused
to the point of enthusiasm which
next year promises to bring. The
schedule is being rapidly complet
ed. The North Carolina teams
will be played first and when it is
remembered that except the team
from Virginia, no college m the
South made a better stand against
us than our State college teams
these games will be of no small in
terest. Prospects are altogether
bright and we can not but expect a
winning team with Coach Reynolds
once more at its head.
Class Day Song of 99.
What merry group so blithe and gray?
Is this the Class of '99?
What means this bright array to-day
Ye merry lads of &9?
To-day our tasks are passed away,
To-day our farewells we must say,
Alas, to-day is our last time
To' meet, this Class of '99.
For four long- years we've studied well,
We gallant boys of '99
But now we say our fond farewell,
We hearty chaps of '99.
No more of Math, and English Three,
No more of Greek and Historj-,
No more of study, that is fine
For lazy of boys '99.
For future cares we take no thought
We jolly boys of '.99,
The victory's won, the battle's fought
By valiant sons of '99.
And though our studies all are o'er
And we are college boys no more,
Our hearts and deeds are ever thine,
Dear Alma Mater, '9.9.
To-day will be forever dear
To !oyal hearts of '99
If hope be faint and life be drear,
We'll fondly dream of '99.
Then thrice three " 'liahs" pray let us give
And ne'er forget it while we live
To love cherish, ever mind.
The memories of '99.
X.
THE BASE RALL SEASON
OF '99.
A General Review of the Season's
Work.
The base ball season has now
closed and become a thing of the
past, a chapter in the history of
athletic at the University of North
Carolina. We read this chapter
with much interest and no small de
gree of-pride. The record made
this year has been a good one.
Of -the fourteen games played
twelve were won ami two lost, one
to the University of Maryland by
the close score of five to six, and the
first game with Lafayette. As the
second game with Lafayette was
won by our team, we may say that
we divided honors with this worthy
rival.
Much praise is due Capt. Win
ston for his untiring effort to make
the team do' its lest. His own
work on first base or when he was
called upon to fill the box has
proved very satisfactory.
A list of batting and fielding av
, i. .1
erages or tne team is given uciow.
These figures speak for themselves
and require no comment.
So here's to the Base Ball Team
of '99 may she ever receive honor
and praise and the tokens of esteem
so well deserved!
