Though Manager Carmichael has
not yet finished the schedule for the
coming season, . yet, the j list below
will show he has provided us .with
the best schedule of games which we
have had; in many years. There are
incluecf more Northern colleges than
heretofore and most of the Southern

o

Besides the above it has been ar
ranged to play two games with Oak
Ride-e, though the dates have not
hem decided on. Also arrangements
are in progress for the games with
Richmond College during om
rnencenient week. The University
of Georgia wishes a game with us
and it is probable that it will be ar
ranered.
The University of Pennsylvania
wishes to play us on April lOtli and
we hote that the management can
arrange the game.
If the movement started in Dur
ham to put out a team is success
' ful, we will probably have games
with them.
Though the places at which the
e-ames will be played are as yet
undecided, still there will be at least
five frames on the home grounds
This, then, is the schedule, so for
as we have been able to obtain 1
or1 n future issue, we wil
publish the completed schedule.
But this is enough to show that we
are to meet teams this year which
will be hard to down and if we are
to come out victorious we must work
and work hard.

Our Athletic Debt.
In a recent talk with a member of
the Faculty, who has been intimate
ly connected with our athletic life
ever since its beginning, and who
has always had our -athletic inter
est in view, the sad fact was stated
that the Athletic Association is in
debt. The exact amount of this
debt was not stated, but it is a
heavy debt. In fact so heavy that
it has been doubtful in the minds of
the advisory committee whether or
not it would be wise to put out a
team this year. (
The management of recent sea
sons is we think, in no way to blaipe
for the fact that the debt is hang
ing over tis. But it has happened
unavoidably as far as the manage
ment was concerned:, One instance
which might be sighted in confir
mation of this, was thjp tendency of
last gear's team to 'cabbage balls,
bats, sweaters and otiier property

Some New Rules.
Lately the Faculty have passed
and announced several new rules m
regard to the regulation of repre-
setitatives of the University, as
members of Athletic Teams, Glee
Club, Marshall s, and Literary So
ciety Representatives.
Though this is not an exact copy
of the rules, as passed by the Fac-
ultv. yet it contains the substance
and sense of the rules.
1. Written permission to leave.

versity on an athletic team 01 vjitc

or guardian.
2. Twelve hours 01 wor yci

Inter-Collegiate Debate.
Tt, romtnitte anuointed from the
Dialectic and Philanthropic Socie
ties to confer with the university 01
Virginia and arrange for an Inter
Collegiate Debate has performed its.
duty,and report that such an ar
rangement will be heartily endorsed
by the Literary Societies of that
Institution. The plan is to have
two representatives from each in
stitution, one from each of the So
cieties. The place and time of meet
ing will be arranged later; for the
first year, Virginia asks that it be
held at Charlottsville, on or before
the tenth of June.
When we consider the vast amount
of good that may be derived from
the inaugeration of such a series ot
yearly debates, we can easily af
ford to give way in matters per
taining to incidental arrangements.
While we would be glad to have
the first debate at our own Univer
sity, yet we hope that this may
form no obstacle in the final per
fection of arrangements.
With such able representatives
as Herman Harrell Home and John
C. Filer, we should be sure ot a
victory whether this "literary con
test" be waged in Virgina or Caro
