run i 'I rui it THE) OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE- UNIVERSITY ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION: Vol. 3. UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, CHAPEL HILL, I. C)? SEPTEMBER ; l 1894. No. 2; The Tar Heei, is a paper run by the ''Varsity" boys, for the boys, and it wants to be the paper of the boys. To do this the boys must be interested in the paper, and the ed itors would greatly appreciate any interest shown in the matter of con tributions. If you have anything to say to the college world, write it out and send it to us. Or, if you know of anything of, interest, or have any bit of verse, etc., to pub lish, send it in. We will be glad of it. All contributions must be sign ed with the real name of the contri butor, or they will not be published, but the names will not be published if so desired. A SECOND foot-ball ground has been carefully prepared and laid off for the use of those whose size or lack of skill would exclude them from the regular 'varsity or scrub teams. Now, a word or two of advice as to the best way to utilize this field, It is impossible to get much good out of it without organization and the proper observance of the laws of the game. We think it would be wisest to organize by classes. Let there be a Freshman and a Sophomore eleven with duly chosen captains and managers. No appli cant for position on the 'varsity or scrub ought to be eligible for a place on the class eleven. The captains ought to train and control their men just as the 'Varsi ty captains do. They should hus tle out on the grounds all the avail able material from their classes and get up a lively enthusiasm over the games. No' one can properly play foot ball in his every'-day clothes. Let each one provide himself with a suit, They are offered by Spalding's agent at $2.75, or the unpadded ones still cheaper, and they will be found most economical in the end. The wear and tear on your other clothes would in a few afternoons amount to more than the cost of the can vass. By developing good class teams, new material is brought out for the 'Varsity, and the game placed on a much surer basis here. Call your class meeting then, and organize and go to work in a whole hearted sort of way. A season of honest work on the foot-ball 'field will do more for ensuring you a healthy year at the University and a strong constitution for after-life than anything else you can pre scribe for yourselves.
