The First Game Of The Season Results lu R Decisive Vic tory Of IS To I. Carolina defeated Bingham in the first game of the season Saturday by the decisive score of 18 to 1. The result of the game was entirely sat isfactory, for there, were, many who thought Carolina would have a weak hitting team, and her hitting in this game was the one feature. Carolina put up a splendid game both at the bat and in the held. Bingham, undoubtedly, was slightly affected with stage -fright. Bing ham made a right formidable ap pearance when she trotted on the field headed by Bill D. Legrande, Ben Moffit, and Tule Watson. Watson, it will be remembered, played second base on Guilford last year and came near ruining us in the Guilford game with a hard smash over second lor two bases. Watson is not a - student at Bing ham nor a member of the faculty nor an assistant in bookkeeping--anything like that. He was secured by Bingham from Greensboro ex pressly to pitch this game. Bing ham did not try to run him in, but carne right out and told whom they intended to work in the box. Wat son, however, was not allowed to pitch, thereby leaving Bingham in a bad hole for a pitcher. Moffit, one of the best little short stops in the state, had to assume the respon sibility which he did very gracefully and artistically. For Moffit's bene fit, the writer can say that he doe not claim to be a pitcher. Carolina realized this fact and as long as Moffit was on the rubber, had the outfielders chasing their tongues out. Hutchins, the big third baseman, relieved Moffit in the eighth and was not hit very bad, mainly because he could not locate the plate. He had an extremely puzzling delivery and threw only two balls, which according to Jack Donnelly, was '"a slow ball and one slower than that." Carolina went to bat first. Cal der beat out a' pretty bunt along the third base line. James did the same thing along the first base line, Calder going to second. Story skied out to third. Patterson walked. Thompson bunted to Moffit and Calder was caught at home. With the sacks full Harris followed with a hard single by short, scoring James and Patterson. Rogers end ed the inning with a fly out to cen ter. Moffit flied to Hanes, in left. Or mond singled by third and went to second on a passed ball. Hutchins got in front of one of Cunny's fast ones and walked to first, rubbing his elbow. Redman fanned. Bill D. Legrande elicited applause by also fanning. Second inn'mg: Hanes fanned. Cunningham went out pitcher, to first. Calder singled in center and stole second. Bur t James hit to the left field for two base, "Duckey" romping home. Story did the same thing, James scoring. Patterson out to center. Armstrong flied to Calder, Har ris and Andrews fanned. Third inning: Thompson nearly tore a paling off of the left field fence, stopping at second. Harris' single to right sent Bull to third. Harris trotted down toward second, seemingly forgetting that Legrande was behind the bat. Of course he was thrown out. A single by Rog ers sent Thompson across tie plate. Hanes walked. Cunningham sin gled. Calder sent a high fly to left. Rogers could have scored easilv after the catch, but didn't understand what "touch your base" meant until too late. The third baseman's error of James' ball scored him. Story went out pitcher to first. Cocke fanned. Moffit went out third to first. Orraoud again sin gled to left and Hutchins went out second to first. Fourth inning: Patterson popped up to Legrande. Thompson went out pitcher to first. Flies from Harris and Rogers were dropped by the right and left fielders, respect ively of the Bingham nine, but they did no material damage as Hanes flied to center. Redman Hied to Story. Legrand singled over second and stole sec ond, where he remained, watchiug Armstrong and Harris fan. The fifth inning bore no fruit for either side. In the sixth Patterson, on a single, aided by Thompson and Rogers, added one run. With Redman on second, Legrand hit a high fly along left field foul line for two bases, scoring Redman for Bingham's only run. In the seventh Carolina scored four runs on one hit, a single by Thompson, three bases on balls and four errors, Armstrong being the principal offender. Harris fanned. Andrews hit by James on third. Harris got the ball in left field and by a beautiful throw caught, him at first. And some oue before the game said that Harris couldn't throw! Cocke grounded to first. Eighth inning: Story's three bag ger scoring James who had pre viously walked was the distinct fea ture of this inning. Nothing doing for Bingham. Thompson made a star catch of Armstrong's foul in the crowd. In the ninth five runs were scored by Rogers, Orr, Cunningham, Cal der, and James, on four singles, two gifts, and a two-bagger. Bingham's last chance: Harris popped up to Harris rather than to anyone else, Andrews fanned, Cocke walked and Moffit ended the game by going out short to first. TABULATED SCORE. Oahousa A.B. It. II.

Mr. Peckham's Speech. Reported for The Tar Heel. The distinguished New Yorker, Mr. W. G. Peckham, the owner of important interests in our commun ty, addressing literary students in Dr. Hume's lecture room, captured all imaginations by his charming literary methods and won all hearts by his generous words con cerning the University and Dr. Hume's tested work in it. His tribute to the flavor and richness of the mother tongue and to the effi cacy ot literary culture in the prep aration for the lawver's vnratlnn his expression of gratitude to his teacher, Francis J. Child of Har vard, his report of the many testi monies from successful graduates of the University to the practical impression of Dr. Hume's teaching and personal character on their lives, his exquisite selections from the ballads and other literature and the glow and eloquent charm with which he did it make it well' SERMON BY MR. LUNSF0RD. "Jesus And His Methods' the Subject-They are Cnchanq ed Today and Men Must Yield to Them. Rev. Wm. Lunsford, pastor of the First Baptist church of Ashe ville, preached before the students Sunday night the University sermon. He is a practical and earnest speak er. The subject of the discourse was "Jesus and His Methods," the basis for it being the story of the healing of the blind man, as related in the ninth chapter of St. John. Christ, like every other great teacher, had his methods. And those methods by which he deals with men are the same today. The story of the blind man, while pathetic, is, neverthe less, fraught with meaning. He found not only physical light, but rose from spiritual darkness into spiritual light. There are three things about the story which com mand our attention: the crowd, the blind man, and Jesus. Though the common people loved Christ, the crowd was very unfriend ly and sought to bother him. They were actuated by prejudice, than which nothing is more unyielding- and more dangerous. Especially has religious prejudice retarded the cause of Christianity. The man himself appears as an object of pity, an object of the kind ministry of Jesus, an object of curi osity and of the gossip of the neigh bors, next as an outcast, the object of the churchmen's ridicule. It was at this stage that Christ came by a second time. A striking character istic of the afflicted one is his pati ence. Suffering produces patience. In the second place he was humble enough to accept Christ's method. There are countless men today struggling with the problem of sal vation who are unwilling to submit themselves. You must yield or sal vation will not be your part. God often offers you the bitter cup, but if you accept it you will feel the blessing of his touch. In the third place the man was obedient enough to act on what faith he had. Kvery one, whatever his experience, has some faith. If he acts on that the rest will come. In the last place he had the courage -to confess Christ and this confession is always fol lowed by a blessing. The noticeable thing about Christ is the completeness of his work. The man who was healed was heal ed forever. Just so his salvation is one which saves a man for all eter nity. worthy of note in connection with the renewed offer of the fifty dollar prize for work in Shakspere and the Ballads. The delighted com pany and all of us thank Mr. Peck ham. "la the spring a livelier iris Changes on the burnished dove; In the spring a young man's fancy Lightly turn.-, to thoughts of" baseball.
