C. as second-class mail matter. Our first game of the season has been played and won by the decis ive score of:. 34 to 0. This is in deed a good beginning and is all the more satisfactory from the undoubt ed tact that the A. and ivi. had a decidly stronger team to represent it this year than was last year s team which we defeated by precise ly the same score. It was really a much harder fought game than the score would indicate for our oppo nents had the true Carolina grit, which does not allow giving up, but makes a fight to a finish necessary. It was throughout a clean well con tested game, with the best of good feeling on both sides, and helped to strengthen the warm feelings of good will which exists between the A. and M. and the University. In another column is a communi cation from the Editor-in-Chief of The University Magazine which should be carefully read and thought upon by every person in college. As the editor says, the Magazine is the place for' every student in college to show his liter ary ability and the editors should not be expected to contribute every thing. ' Indeed the real function of the editors is to edit the matter ' handed in to them by the students, not to compose as well. It was allowed to go out of existence some years ago because of this very lack of literary support by the stu dents and consequent necessity for filling up with contributions, from the alumni. When it was re-established it was with the understand ing that it was to be an undergrad uate publication but unless you sup port it, it must either be given up again or be driven to rely on out side communications. It - is your duty to at least try to do something. And let us suggest here that perti nent communications will be gladly received by the editors of The Tar Heel. It is your paper and is pub lished in your interest. New' Course in English Quite a large class is taking the new and interesting English course known as English XIII, which treats of the rise and progress of Fiction. This treats in a thorough manner of English fiction from its beginning down to the present day, and is indeed an addition to the University's curriculum. , ' Rooting. Organized routing- was tried for , the first time Saturday during the I game with the A. and M. College, and though the rooting was not eve rything that could be desired, it was better than former unsystematic at tempts. One of the principal deficiencies is that a maioritv of the students seen? to think that the Chief Cheer-. er and his assistants are to do all the cheering and give every one else an opportunity to race up and dowA the side lines and try to keep exacjly opposite the ball. Such is not by any means the function of the checrers. They are simply to direct the cheering.1 Another difficulty in the earlier games of a season is the fact that so few new men know the yells and for their benefit the principal ones are printed below. Now let every body learn them and when the Cheerer calls for a yell, yell. If anyone can improve on the old yells or has a new one. if he will hand it to any one of the Cheerers it will be given a fair trial. The yells printed here must be given in time and repeated as rapid ly as possible. , Yackety yack, hooray, hooray, Carolina 'Varsity, Boom-rah, Boom-rah, Car o li na.

The articles entitled, "Columbia, the Pride of the Ocean," "Skippers and Crews of the Rival Racers," and "Columbia Shamrock," are very interesting- just at this time, when America is agog with interest over what we hope, is the vain at tempt of England to win back America's Cup, by the yacht, Sham rock. But the articles of especial inter est are, "Kicking aFoot Ball;" and "Review of the Foot Ball Season of '98.". The first of these ar ticles is written by George II. Brook, of the University of Pa., and is full of information concerning the history, advantage and import ance of good kicking. He says, that during the years when the rules as to holding were not very strict there was some spectacular kicking done;but as the rules be came stricter, the time allowed ' was so short, that k i c k i n gj was almost entirely stopped j and bade fair to be one of the cast ; outs. But two years ago the coach-! es evolved the scheme of allowing i therenter to pass the ball directly to the kicker, thus giving him more time; and this has once more teams of nearly all Colleges of any Foot-ball Captains and Manager note, telling something of the work the Juniors decided to elect theirs done by them in the season of '93.
