THE
FORTY-FIVE TO NOTHING!
Last Saturday's Game Between
Carolina and Oak Ridge Results
in a Walkover for Carolina.
The Carolina-Oak Ridge foot
ball game Saturday was not so
much a glorious victory for Caro
lina as it was for Oak Ridge a piti
able defeat. Carolina gained near
ly nine hundred yards, while Oak
Ridge did not gain a yard. The
Varsity so completely outclassed
the visitors that there was no good
game from a practical point of view.
No doubt, however, the students
were pleased to see the Varsity ex
ecute her plays so effectively.
The two good tackles, however,
that were made by Oak Ridge men
were things that everybody was
glad to see; and if some other re
markable thing had been done by
Oak Ridge, everybody would have
been still more pleased. That
might'have made the Varsity feel
more at liberty to increase her score
As it was the ball was in play
only 20 minutes, and hi that time
Carolina made 45 and Oak Ridge 0.
In a ; few. words the ganie was
something like this: Varsity'squar
ter would call the signals; then
there would be a few rushes,, and
next some Varsity man. after a lit
tle dodging, would chase down the
gridiron for a touch down. In de
tail, however, the game is somewhat
harder to describe, it being a series
of such long runs that it is hard to
use specific language and preserve
accuracy. The following report is
as correct as possible.

Second Half.
Carolina takes the western end
of the gridiron and kicks off 45
yards. An Oak Ridge man catches
and Rose makes a quick tackle.
Oak Ridge makes two futile at
tempts to advance the ball, and fin

"I desire," said he, "that you
mention in the Tar Heel, and under
heavy head lines, that the faithful
scrubs who play for the practice of
the Varsity until the close of the
season will be given a free trip to
Richmond on Thanksgiving Day,
November 26."
Dr. Venable expressed the desire
that the Athletic Association do
this much for the Scrubs and has
appointed Coach Olcott and Mana
ger Smith to say who the faithful
few will be. The Varsity will
carry eighteen men as usual, and
from the scrubs remaining, fifteen
of the most faithful ones will be
given their railroad fare.
This is gratifying to the whole
student body as to the scrub play
ers. It is from the scrubs that the
Varsity gets its strength. A strong
scrub team means a strong Varsity
and a strong Varsity means success
for Carolina.
Let there be no lack' of ' men, to
practice the Varsity, but let every
man who is;, physically ''able: come
out and show his interest in Caro
lina's success. Last year was a
record breaker for Carolina in ath-
etics. Now let everybody rush to
gether and make this a ba'nner year
as well as the last one. We cannot
go backwards.
The excursion train to Richmond,
on November 26, will be run as it
was last year, and under the direc
tion of the students. The railroad
fare will be the same, if not less.
Gridiron Gossip.
Yale's great rival, Harvard, com
plains of a lack of heavy men, but
has material enough on the gridiron
to make the best of them hustle can
be taken for granted. Hard work
is being done.
Harvard's team was given a big
upheaval Wednesday when three of
last year's players were shifted to
new positions, which they . seem
likely to hold throughout the year.
Pennsylvania has another eligi
bility problem on her hands, in the
shape of Captain Gardiner, of last
j year's red and blue eleven. Gardiner,
'though this is practically his fifth
j year in foot ball at Pennsylvania,
j maintains that he is eligible this
I year.
The first serious accident this
fails to score. Oak Ridge lines up 'ear on the foot bal1 "ccured
on the 25 yard line. Rose catches i at Carlisle, Pa., when bamuel ban-

thwarting the man in his purpose.
