G'S GIVEN TO FOUR AN INTERESTING CONTEST IN THE GYMNASIUM. The Giving of Sweaters Has Stimu lated Interest in Gym Work. The annual contest for gymuasi um N. C.'s took place Saturday afternoon at the Bynum Gymnasi um. The men who entered the con test and who had been training al the spring were in good condition and the exhibition thev e-ave was interesting. To get the jerseys, the contestants had to do a number of stunts, comprising figures on the parallel bars, the horizontal bar, j. i : t i ine swing rings, tne norse, ana on the mats. There were seven con testants, and the ierseys were awarded to the following men, V. W. Osborne, L. C. Kerr, C; C. Brown, 1 O O TkT T S i ana w5. o. iasn, jr. usoorne was especially recommended by the com J J 11 . 4 1 mutee as tne Dest au round gym nast, and Kerr as a very close sec ond. The contest was viewed from the track above bv a lare number of spectators. The judges were, Drs. C. S. Mangum, C. H. Herty, and C. A. Smith. jl nese contests ior tne jerseys have done a great deal of good in being an incentive for harder work in the gymnasium. With a chance for an N. C. in view, one does not have to work in an impersonal and uninteresting manner, but he has something to aim at, something that puts life and interest into his work Seniors Defeat Meds. The most interesting class game that has been played this spring was that Saturday afternoon, when the Seniors defeated the Meds by the score of 11 to 4. During the first part of the game the Meds played all around the Seniors and it looked like a walk-over. They fill 14 1 1 1 1 4 Dattea wen ana aia gooa worK in the field, while the Seniors couldn't hit and played poorly in the field. The tide, however, was turned in the sixth. ' The Doctors went to pieces and the Seniors got together and sent five men across the rubber before the side was retired. The Meds fought hard both those in the game and those on the side lines and did their utmost to recover the game, but it was too late. The Seniors had it "cinched." Sumner pitched exceptionally well for the Meds until the fatal sixth. Matthews' work was poor at the beginning, but he gradually improved until toward the last, when he did some pietty stunts. Sophs. Victorious. In a ten-inning game Tuesday the Sophs defeated the Freshmen by a score of 4 to 1. The Fresh men started the scoring in the first, the Sophs got one in the fifth, and added three in the ninth. Thomas and Cocke did the battery work for the Freshmen, and Sloan and Pin nix for the Sophs. RETURN OF THE PRESIDENT HE REACHES THE HILL SATUR- DAY MORNING. A Large Crowd of Students March to His Home to Welcome Him. Dr. Venable returned Saturday morning from his voyage to Italy, upon which he had been gone about six weeks. As soon as he arrived on the Hill, some of his admirers in the student body set the old college bell to ringing and kept it ringing for an hour. At night the societies adjourned and most of the members marched in a body, headed by the band and lighted by jtorches, to Dr. Venable's home, there to welcome him back to "God's Country" with some of the old college yells. He responded by making a short talk, in which he expressed his delight at being once more on the Hill, and his ap preciation of the rousing welcome. In the course of his remarks he took occasion, to congratulate the students upon their priceless her itage of American citizenship, say ing' that his voyage had made him notice more forcibly than ever the contrast between the old country and the new. Dr. Venable spent the major part of his time upon the water, inas much as he went mainly for the benefit to be derived from a sea voyage. Jtle spent twelve days in Naples and bothered little about sight-seeing, for, as he said, he just "loafed," so that he might be come thoroughly rested. Guilford and Virginia. No more games will be played on the Hill until Aoril 10. but meanwhile Carolina will face at Greensboro two teams that have always made her get up and hustle. They are Guilford and Virginia the former Saturday, April 4, the latter Monday, April 6. An excur sion will be run on the sixth, leav ing Chapel Hill at 8:10, and as many students as can do so are urged to attend and help at the rooting stunt. Georgia Debate Postponed. The Georgia debate has been postponed, and will probably be 'ield April 10, provided Mr. O. R. Rand, who is sick with the mumps, is sufficiently recovered to participate. Virginia Carolina Debate. Messrs. J. W. Hester and J. T. Johnston leave this morning for Richmond to meet the debaters rom the University of Virginia to morrow night on the question as to whether national banks should be allowed to issue notes on their gen eral assets. These gentlemen have worked hard on the question and they will unquestionably give the Virginians a run for their money. They were accompanied by Mr. T. L. Simmons, as "Coach." CAROLINA DEFEATS CORNELL WINS FROM NEW YORKERS BY SCORE OF 5 TO 2. An Interesting Game Fullenwider Does Good Pitching, Fan ning Eleven Men. Carolina defeated Cornell here yesterday afternoon by the score of 5 to 2. The game was interesting from beginning to end and the teams did good work both at the stick and in the field. The Cor nell men were rather vociferous in their kicks, claiming that Umpire Whitaker did not give them a square deal. Carolina started the scoring in the second inning, when by a suc cession of pretty hits they landed three men across the rubber. Again in the sixth and in the eighth they scored. Cornell scored her first run in the fourth and her second in the ninth when Lally, the cather, knocked a clean home run. Fullenwider pitched a beautiful game, causing eleven men to won der at the gyrations of the ball. Caldwell did good work for the visitors and, except - in the second inning, kept the hits scattered. Score by innings: R H Cornell 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 - 2 5 Carolina 0 3 0 0 0 1 0 1 x - 5 5 Batteries: Caldwell and Lally, Fullenwider and Hobbs. E 1 2 The Prize Reading Contest. The Prize Reading Contest by the students in Public Speaking announced in last week's Tar Heel will probably be held during the Easter dances. The contestants have been chosen and .will be an nounced shortly. Mr. Potter's success with "The Rivals" here February 20 is suffic ient to prove that any entertain ment he prepares for the stage is well worth hearing. The idea of having such a contest is new at this institution, but it is certain that with Mr. Potter behind it the show can but be a success. The following clipping is taken from the paper at Barre, Vermont at which place Mr, Potter taught last year: "Mr. Potter showed in his recent recital that he is a reader and im personator of the highest rank. In his production of "The Rivals," the excellent work done by the entire cast proved that as a dramatic coach he is unsurpassed Last night when his pupils were presented in a Prize Reading Contest the public was convinced that whenever his name appears upon a program you may know the entertainment will be worth the price." -Vermont Watchman and Barre Times. More Moving Pictures. The moving picture show has come to town again, this time with an entirely new set of films. The show will be held in the Y. M. C. A. chapel, the price is ten cents, ' and large crowds are expected.
