PROBABLE LINE UP FOR FRIDAY PICKED.
With the first game dead ahead
Earl Mack is steering his team
head on with all steam on. Un
less breakers interfere there will
be a collision tomorrow and
either Oak Ridge or Carolina
will see Davy Jones' locker before
the week is out.
The baseball fiends have had a
taste of spring- sandwiched be
tween layers of snow, and if the
present taste will 'continue long
enough to make a full meal, Car
olina will sec her team in fine
fighting trim before many days
have oast. The diamond has
been rcpolished, and the ground
ers no longer jump up suddenly
to meet you. Phoebe will have
fewer ridges to mount as he
lopes through the right garden.
The team is on solid ground and
is fast developing.
For the last week a game has
been started adout 3:00 every
evening, and with fresh men be
ing continually interchanged in
the different positions,evcry even
in ir has riven about two and a
half hours .continual work-out.
The results have given Coach a
fair line on his men, although as
yet no definite selection can be
made; for it takes a full season to
pick a team.
General Lee is bringing around
a pitching staff and in the prac
tice games played good form has
already been show. Bun Ilearuc,
of the New York team, has been
helping out with his left. To
pick from we have Williams,
Watktns, Johnson, S b l e 1 (I s
Foust, Craven, and even more
We .are strong on catchers, too
Hart, Woodall, Knowles, Bur
nette, Love, and Angel are out
This list gives us high promises
for a strong battery for the "eiv
tire season. '"'.'''
In the infield we have Captain
Bailey on 2nd, Patterson or Nor-
ris for first, Rousseau, Royster,
or Polk for short. Lewis or
Laughran probably on 3rd.
In the outfield Johnson, Bailey,
Turbybill, Long, Litchfield, and
others are showing up in great
style.
Again, the hitting ability of
the team cannot be determined.
Straight drives, flies out of the
fielders, reach, and well placed
grounders have , been much in
evidence, and since Oak Ridge is
said to be strong in her batteries,
we .may well look lorward

Practical President
Leach Presided.
A man told Coach Nat the other
day that he would like to come
out on the track and run, but was
afraid he would be in the way
Coach immediately suspended his
other engagements for ten minutes
and tried to impress on the young-
student the eternal fact that the
track runs around the Smith
Buildingfor no other purpose than
to be run on, and that this Uni
versity can't run unless a big
crowd from every class comes out
and run.
On March 28 two weeks from
now the class meet will be held
Every man, Senior or Fresh
man or in between, should have
a hand in this. If you think there
is nobody else in college quite as
bow-legged, skinny-ribbed, and
short-winded as you, come out
from now until class day and see
how many other short-winded fel
lows you can beat. Coach says
the greener you come, the better
he will like you. The Fresh and
Soph classes have not yet turned
out their reasonable number of
candidates. Coach is glad of
every 'opportunity to get hold of
a man who never ran before.
And ever)' man who goes to him
will find the hour he spends on
the track the best hour of the
day.
Remember this: The Varsity
men are not allowed to enter the
class contest. You will be up
against men no more trained than
yourself. Come out and beat
them. If you dr n't know the way
to the track, ask your class mana
ger or any of the old track men.
They will be glad to show you.
The Varsity season opens on
April 4th., when we meet Wake
Forest here. The team will take
trips to Raleigh, Blacksburg. Va.
(V. P. I.), and Baltimore (South
Atlantic meet). Out of the class
teams must come new
A STRONG CROUP OF SPEAKERS HEARD.
On Friday night the grand ok

last and bestjjbanquet of its un
dergraduate days. The long
tables were appropriately with
eignt paiaie-gratitying courses
and headed by those Princess of
College Speakers, Prof., Williams
Prof. Stacy and Mr. Moss.
President Uscar L,each, as
Toastmaster, turned a genial
light upon the company from the
beginning, and took advantage
of the well-fed good nature of the
class to tickle its vanity continu
ally. The occasion was marked
by a high order of good feeling
associated with a serious consid
eration of the position of Senior
life. , , ;
"We need," said Oscar Leach
in his opening remarks, "a class
bulletin to keep each one of us in
touch with the progress of all
We might expect to read there

that Benjamin Franklin Aycock
had been married to the beautifu
and accomplished daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. So-and-so; or that
Mr. Troy Isaiah Jones had as
sumed his duties as Editor of
Life." ,
The first speaker called on was
Lenoir Chambers. Of course that
srentleuian protested that we
ought noi to expect him to make
a speech. And then he turned
the light on present day athletics
especially in our own State.
"What we need, he said is a
spirit of high ideals in athletics.

that if we are clean and right in
athletics we will carry this same
