II .JiL. H Ia Ji J -4 Q Vol. 13, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, CHAPEL HILL, 8. C, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1905. No. 26. OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. FICKLE FATE FAVORS FARMERS Carolina's Luck Deserts Her Until the Seventh, When She Lands Four Runs, Which Are Lost on Technicality. The second game between Caro lina and A. & M. was played here Saturday afternoon. The srame was scheduled to begin at 4 o'clock, but on account ot a wreck near Raleigh the A. & M. team did not ' . i t r rr 1 srct nere until nair past nve. i lie game began at five forty and was stopped in the middle of the seventh inning with the score 5 to 3 in favor of Carolina. Umpire Meade said that it was too dark to finish the seventh inning and hence the sev enth inning- would not count. This gave the game to A. & M. by a score of 3 to 1. It was perfectly evident that A. & M. outplayed Carolina up to the seventh inning both in the field and at bat: A. & M. played an errorless game up to the seventh inning with the exception of Heath's wild throw to first. Sit ton grave four bases in the first four inning's. These coupled with some costly errors placed Carolina in a dangerous position in both the first and third innings, and resulted in 3 runs for A. & M. in the fifth. Caro lina made five errors, three of which were by Gudger, to A. & M.'s one. Sitton was a little slow in getting- started to pitching- and was not in Ins usual iorm at any time during' the game. As Winston said, "This is not our time of day for playing ball," but Sitton struck out nine men in six innings which is not so bad. There has been some kicking- on the Hill against Umpire Meade calling the game in the middle of the seventh inning. In defence of his decision he said ' that Hadley, captain of A. & M.'s team, wanted to stop the game at the end of the sixth inning, but that Captain Cheshire was not willing to do it, and as he thought they would have time to play another inning, he de cided that way. But Carolina be gan hitting and the inning was longer than the others, and hence there was not time to finish.. But Coach Lawson and Captain Chesh ire thought the iunintr ought to C5 ' have been finished. There has also been some criticism of A. & M. for killing time, but Umpire Meade said that Sitton killed more time in his wind up all through the game than A. & M. did, but A. & M. killed all she could. Their pitcher actually left the field before the ame was called. Carolina evi dently made every effort to hasten the game in the seventh inning, Captain Cheshire purposely allow ing himself to be put. out in order that A. & M. might get her half of the inning". The game cannot be limited as an official g-ame, as the '"ulcs require that a championship ipune be started at least two hours "efore sundown. lhe students lore are very anxious to have the that there is no prospect; of arranging- a third g-ame. If the g-ame were counted up to the sixtli inning there is- no doubt that A. & M. won. She played till then a superior game. Car olina's pick up in the seventh must not be ascribed to darkness at all. The fact is she simply began to bat; A. & M. fielded well to the end of the g-ame, but Heath lost his elus iveness, Carolina found him and placed her hits where they could not be handled. The game in detail follows: Carolina was first at bat. Wins ton led off with a fly to first base man. Stem was given his Cheshire was out pitcher to while Stem went to second. base, first, But FRESH-SOPH DEBATE. I, r ame counted and let the tie be played off.

Thompson fanned and was thrown out at first by the catcher. Winborne flew out to short. Drake went out short to first Heath awl J emple tanned, and it began to look like the pitching- that Sitton did at Raleigh.

But the agony for Carolina was ended by Knox hitting to Cheshire who threw Hadley out at second. Fourth inning: In this inning Carolina made the first run of the game through a wild throw by Heath, a sacrifice, and the only two base hit of the g-ame by James. Stem led off with an easy one to Heath who tossed it over first base man's head and Stem went to sec ond. Cheshire sacrificed and was out pitcher to first, , while Stem went to third. James then knocked a high flypast center field good for two bases and Stem scored. James went to third on passed ball by Hadley, but died there, as Gudger and Thompson knocked pop flies to Continued ou 4th page. Representatives of the Phi Win in an Interesting Discussion. The reg-ular Fresh-Soph debate between the Di and Phi Societies was held ; in the Chapel Friday night. The query debated was, "Resolved,: That Trusts are Detri mental to Our Industrial Develop ment." The Phi representatives, Messrs. IS. L. Stewart, '08, and F. M. Hig-hsmith, '07, had the affir mative side of the question, and the Di representatives. Messrs. DeWitt Holt, '08, and R. C. Day, '07, hat the negative. The committee de cided in favor of the affirmative'. STEWART. Mr, Stewart was the first speak er. He started by admitting -that organization is of value in industry lo be ot value this organization must subserve its interests to those of industry and of society Trusts, 1 . 1 ft . 4 he said, instead, or doing- this are complete monopolies and oppress all classes of industrial society. ; He then 'took up the law of de creasing retiirns, proved its appli cation to every phase of life; show ed how the trusts disregard this law and are enabled to do so by the vast amount of capital their monop oly secures to them. He stated that every attempt ag-ainst them in courts or legislatures had been futile, thus proving- that the trusts are stronger than public sentiment or power. The statement was made that trusts oppress all classes of society by forcing- the manufacturer to sell at a low price, the consumer to buy at a higher one, and by fore ing- the wages of the laborers below a living point. The speaker stated in conclusion that trusts do away with industrial freedom. HOIyT. lhe following- is the synopsis of the speech of Mr. Holt, the first speaker on the negative: The trust is a natural stage in the -development of our industrial system. winch is a product ot constant growth, lhe negative claim that industry is the supplying the wants of humanity most efficiently and at the least expense. This is impossi ble without a grovying system of business and business methods. In all phases of life there is this sys tem of growth, and it is by. adher ence to this principle that American industry has grown. In a -highly developed civilization it is necessary to have an industrial system and the trust fills this place in our life. The trust is a product of growth and is honest, and it serves! the in dustrial world ; better than any sys tem yet tried. IIIGHSMITH. Mr. Highsmith stated that we lave just four phases of industrial ife to consider: capital, labor, bus iness management, and the produc- ion of raw material. He proposed to snow tnat tlie trusts brought about such a state of stag-nation in industry by oppressing all classes of industrial society and by crush ing out freedom of individual action and enterprise, which his colleague had shown to be the very life-blood of our industrial development. He showed: That the trusts centralize the wealth-producing lower of the nation by controlling the whole of our trade. That they crush out all competition, by showing- that they are monopolies and therefore cannot exist as such with any considerable competition in the field. He showed by representa tive instances that they exact unjust prices from consumers. That the United States is peculiarly open to trust evils from the facts that our tariff system excludes foreign com petition; our government has only nominal control over the trusts, and potential competition has no place in our industrial life. That they crush out freedom of individual action by destroying equality of opportunity in industry and thus hampering progressive thought there, dominating the field of labor, and making legitimate competition impossible and thus checking" the progress of inventions. That, these things being so, in dustry can receive no stimulus so long as the trusts hold under pres ent conditions. DAY. Mr. Day showed how the trust, which as admitted by both sides is the advanced stage of legitimate corporations, serves industry (1) by rendering industry stable, and (2) that concentrated industrial forces t . i are necessary as distributing mediums. Mr. Day then showed that the trust removes conflicts from indus try and places our industrial system on a basis of normal and permanent frrnwtli TTp tlimi ulinvvcrl flint mir ..w. ..... - w.v-.. ......... w-. industries are enabled to meet the organized industries of other coun tries and thus secure for our pro ducers the most thriving- exnort trade of the world his rejoinder that ire infant trusts. He showed in the corporations Carpenter Hurt. Hunter Carpenter, former foot ball star of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and University of North Carolina, has been badly hurt. He would .probably have been killed but for his fine physical condition. He is general manager for his father, J. C. Carpenter, of Clifton Forge, on the railroad works. While unloading- a lot uf small l st 11 tram cars from a Chesapeake and Ohio flat car one of them, falling three feet, knocked Carpenter down and pinned him by his leg. The flesh was crushed and the bone was fractured above the knee. A blow on the head knocked him senseless. This wound' was sewed up. His shoulder held the weight of the car and saved his chest from being crushed. College Topics. II . Hill. W. Winstead, '04, is on the If
