OF HOME TEAM DEFEATS VISITORS ELOQUENT ADDRESS BY DR. IN PLUCKY GAME. I MURPHY OF HICKORY. Tar Heels Outclassed In Filial Game of Season Some Incidents of the Game. The Naval Academy eleven de feated the Varsity at Annapolis Saturday by a score of 40 to 0, two points more than were scored against Carolina by the Midship men last year. The regular Mid shipman team played in the first half, but was practically replaced by substitutes in the second. The teams were about evenly matched in weight, but the Tar Heels, sticking closely to old-time ball, were outplayed at every point, gaining a first down only once in the entire game. This was near the end of the game when the ball was on the Navy's 40-yard line the closest Carolina got to a. touch down.'; ' North Carolina kicked off. Dadue recovered the twisting punt on the 15-yard line, and in three plays the ball was carried over for a touch down. Five minutes after this, the Navy had scored again, and before the half was up it had still another touchdown to its credit. In the second half four additional touchdowns were scored at inter vals of about five minutes by old time football tactics. The ball was carried for distances ranging from 50 to 60 yards. Throughout the game, the sailors went through the Carolina line with apparent ease, while at all times ' the Navy line held like a stone wall. An unusual incident was the rul ing off of Norton, the Navy quart erback, by Referee South worth for some excited language. Some of the Carolinians angerod Norton by calling 4,signal" when the Navy had the ball. This was done sev eral times and Norton protested in a manner that South worth would not allow. An amusing feature of the game was the manner in which one of the Navy's backs shouted regularly just before- each rush when the ball was' in the Navy's possessiou, "Here we go;, boys!" And away they went! It might have paid Carolina, also, to try this magic phrase, but she didn't. The line-up follows: Navv Carolina Bynton I.e. Davis Lighton l.t.

Score: Seniors 5, Sophs 0 The Juniors Hold Cham pionship. The Senior andisophomore elevens met on the gridiron Monday after noon for the last scheduled class game of the season. From the first the game was all the Seniors' way, the Sophs never having a chance to score, A touchdown made by the Seniors early in the first half de cided the contest, neither side score ing afterward. In the first half the Sophs kicked off, but the Seniors soon brought the ball out of their territory. After each side had indulged in a punt or so '07 decided to talk business and proceeded to rush the ball over for a touchdown. Stem failed at goal. Early in the second half the Sophs got more ginger into the game, but it availed them nothing. Although they held their own they were unable to gain anything. Late in the half '07 took another spurt and was well on her way for a second touchdown when the whistle blew. The Seniors , clearly outplayed their opponents at every point, making first down almost at will, The Sophs succeeded in making the distance only a few times. For the Seniors, Stem and McLean played star ball both on attack and defense. (Continued on Fourth Page.) The Junior Banquet. The members of the Junior class held a. banquet at Pickard's Hotel last Thursday night. The major ity of the class attended and all spent a most pleasant evening. The guests of the evening were Drs. Smith and Raper and Profes sor Williams. Dr. Herty was ex pected but sickness prevented his being present. President Eagles presided as toastmaster and called upon Prof fessor Williams who spoke upon "The Opportunities of the Young Man in the South." Mr.fc Stacy responded Dr. Raper then spoke briefly on "The Danger of Social ism" and was followed by Mr. W. E. Yelverton. Dr. Smith chose as his theme "American Humor." His speech was characteristically bright and graceful and was highly appreciated by his audience. Speeches by Messrs. Robins and Coughenhour closed the regular program for the evening, which was followed by a number of im promptu talks. Marse Jesse servep tlie repast, which was a credit to his ability ! as a caterer. B. F. Reynolds. '08, who left col lege some weeks ago, has been re- ' cently elected register of deeds of 'Richmond county, leading the Dem ' ocratic ticket at the election. Touchdown on Fluke Saves War renton Boys From Shut-Out. The Scrubs defeated the War ren ton High School eleven by a score of 15 to 5 on the local grid iron last Friday afternoon. This game was the first of a series that has been aranged by the second team. It was also the second "big game" to be played oh the Hill this season. ? Everyone had expected a walk over for the Scrubs, but it turned out otherwise. The Warreuton boys played plucky ball and suet ceeded not only in holding their opponents down to the co mparative ly small score of 15. but also in crossing their goal line. As the Warrenton team had not been train ed by a coach it is to be commended for the good ball it played. The game, as a whole, was not an es pecially good one. Both sides fum bled repeatedly, and the goal kick ing was poor. 1 The Scrubs made their first touch down after seven minutes of play, but there was no further scoring done during the first half. In the . ..second half the Scrubs added their other two touchdowns, McRae, Groome, Cox, and Eames gaining most of the ground. It was in this half, too, that Warrenton scored,on a fluke. Hanes fumbled a punt on Warrenton's 25 yard line, and Ells worth secured the ball and ran 70 yards for a touchdown. All four goals were missed. The game end ed with the ball in the Scrubs' pos session on Warrenton's 45 yard line. Turner, Ellsworth, and Seymour played the best ball for Warrenton. (Continued on Fourth Page.) The Class Customs Question. The committee appointed some time ago by President Roberson of the Athletic Association to consider the question of class customs met last Saturday afternoon. As the committee saw it, it had no power to adopt any definite customs to submit to the student body. Therefore it drew up ' the following suggestion which the college may accept or reject as it sees fit: That the pres ident of each of the academic classes, if he deem that the senti ment of his class demand it, call a meeting 6f his class for the purpose of discussing the class customs question and appoint a committee to devise suitable customs. By this method each class in college may adopt its own insignia. Un less each of the four academic classes adopts its own customs, and unless each class takes it upon itself to carry out these customs when adopted, the committee does not consider the Institution of customs as either practicable or advisable. A Strong Appeal to Students to Consecrate Their Lives to Christ. Rev. Joseph L. Murphy, D.D., pastor of the Reformed Church at Hickory, N. C, and editor of the Ret o r m ed Church Standard, preached the University Sermon for November in the chapel Sunday night. Dr. Murphy chose as his text the third verse of the sixth chapter of Matthew: "But seek ye first the kingdon of God and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." The sermon was an earnest plea in behalf of the Christian religion and a strong appeal to the students to consecrate themselves to the service of Christ. "Should a young man accept the Christ and identify himself with the Christian religion? This im portant question finds its answer in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. All the noble traits of character and qualities of mind and heart that we praise in men are found in Jesus, genius, heroism, benevolent, and' wonderful achieve ment. "The teachings of Christ gave a new interpretation to the law, and today, Christianity, based upon these teachings, is, as a com parative religion, a superb thing. Confucius has a system of moral philosophy based on the tendencies and needs of human nature. He states the Golden Rule negatively, prohibits evil instead of promoting good. Hence the deadness of China. She is self-centered instead of God-centered. "The test of every system of philosophy or religion is the effect it has upon the lives of its devotees. Christianity has wrought wonder ful changes in the lives of individ uals. Sensuality, avarice, ambi tion, and pride have passed away under the influence 'of ' Cfrcistian purity, humility, and love. Alife pitched upon the plane of Christ's teaching is the richest and best life." - The attention of the students, attracted at the first by the com manding presence and engaging appearance of the speaker, was held and sustained throughout by the clear and logical treatment of his subject. Elisha Mitchell Society. The Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society held its 168th meeting in Chemistry Hall Tuesday night. Three papers were read and dis cussed. The papers were: "Denatured Alcohol," Dr. A. S. Wheeler. "The Mutual Absorption of At traction by the Attracting Parti cles," Dr. J. E. Mills. "Experiments in Sponge Breed ing." Dr. H, V. Wilson.
