CAROLINA WINS.
Quakers Fail to Score While Caro
lina Makes 29.
The first game - of the football
season with Guilford resulted in a
score of 29 to 0 in favor of Carolina.
This is fourteen points more than
we beat them last year, and yet the
score is not as large as it should
have been, judging from the scoring
in the first half as compared with
that in the second But all of the
Varsity squad were put in that the
merits of all the men should be
tested. Coach Brown gave out the
following on the merits of the indi
vidual men:
"Stewart's work was good, getting
down the field on punts almost as
fast as the ends passing sure
defense strong. Story and Seagle,
guards, a little slow but fairly good
on defense. Lack aggressiveness.
"Webber at tackle not in good
condition yet. but good on both of
fense and defense. Jones not as
powerful as his brother work but
mediocre.
"Parker and Singletary fair on
offense, not especially strong on de
fense. "Barry and Townsend very good
work at end, fast down on punts,
tackled well and followed the ball
well. Wright and Reynolds not
strong on defense. Wilson tackles
well.
"Jacocks' work good handled
team well, punted finely, ran in
punts well. Bear, Roberson and
Newton best of backs. All find
their holes well and keep their feet
well. Sittou good on open field
runs but does not hit the hole in the
line.
"Winborne kept his feet well and
strong on defense. Gudger and
Haywood good defensive men but
slow on offense.
"Whole team worked well on de
fense and at times followed the ball
well, pulling the runner along. The
line did not open holes as well as
they should, though at times the
work in this respect was good."

THE SHAKESPEARE CLUB.
Revival of the Club and an Address
by Dr. Mcliryde.
The Shakespeare Club was re
vived last Thursday night after a
year of inactivity. This organiza
tion was for many years an impor
tant one, fostering and stimulating
interest in the subjects suggested
bv its name, and bringing the stu
dents of these subjects into contact
with each other. Last year circunn
stances made it impossible to hold
the meeting of the club and it was
allowed to drop out of sight tempor
arily. This year, however, renewed
interest and vigor are expected to
restore it to its old-time importance.
The President, Dr. Hume, announc
ed that a number of papers would
be read during the year by mem
bers of the faculty and by students.
The event of the evening was an
address by Dr. J. M. McBryde, Jr.,
on "The Leading Motive in Mar
lowe's Dramas." The address was
especially interesting in that it. was
the first opportunity many of the
students had had of hearing Dr.
McBryde. The subject was clearly
presented, and facts were given
which were of interest and value.
First a brief sketch of Marlowe's
life was given and quotations were
read from the many glowing trib
utes paid to the dramatist by his
contemporai'ies, Chapman, Petto we,
Peele, Drayton and Shakespeare.
Coming then to the subject of the
motive, the speaker-said:
"Though a dramatist ranking
next -to Shakespeare himself, Mar
lowe, unlike Shakespeare, was es
sentially a subjective poet, and
almost every character in his dramas
is but the embodiment of its crea
tor's spirit. Into each character he
breathes his own restless spirit of
insatiable desire, or L 'Amour de
V Impossible, the love of unattaina
ble things, desire for the infinite
and unattainable."
This was defined as the leading
motive of all Marlowe's dramas.
Each play was then taken up and
the motive was shown running
through all. "Tambourlane," said
Dr. McBryde, "is the personifica
tion of desire for illimitable power.
Faustus, 'the hero and martyr of
forbidden power,' personifies the
longing for infinite knowledge."
The main-spring for action in the
character of Barabas was shown to
be yearning for "infinite riches in a
little room." Mortimer in Edward
II was described as "like Tambour
lane and Faustus, aspiring to inac
cessible heights only to fall head
long." The leading characters or
the dramas were thus shown to be
but the mouthpieces of the drama
tist's restless and ambitious spirit,
being the personification of thirst
for power, thirst for knowLdge, or
thirst for beauty; in other words,
desire for the unattainable.
The poems of Marlowe were then
spoken of and the statement made
that "in Hero and Leander and
The Passionate Shepherd this same
spirit of infinite longing is to be
seen."
The conclusion was exceedingly
interesting to the Browning stu
dents, for it was a contrast of Mar
lowe with Browning.
"Though in Browning we feel
the same infinite longing, the effect
on his art and his soul was differ
ent. With Marlowe this yearning
after the infinite was unsettling and
unsatisfactory, leading to an atti
tude of revolt, rebellion and de
spair. With Browning. on the con
trary, this longing for the unattain
able is helpful and uplifting. Ac
cording to Browning, far from be
wailing his ineffectual attempts to
grasp the fleeting ideal of beauty
and perpetuate it on the canvas, the
artist should be stimulated by his
very failures to new endeavors. In
deed, that artist who feels he has
attained his ideal has missed the
highest conception of his art.
'Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what's a heaven for?' . '
Thus Marlowe, though undeniably
an artist, a poet, and a dramatist of
no inferior rank, never attained to
the moral grandeur of Browning or
of Shakespeare. If at bottom
poetry is, as Matthew Arnold calls
it, a criticism of life. Marlowe's
'criticism' will not stand the test of
time and does not satisfy our deep
est longings."
