No. 8. j Great Surprise Evinced Here Over the Result CI em sou Has a Fast Team. The Clemson Tigers defeated the upholders of the White and Blue in a fast frame of football at Columbia last Thursday by the score of 15 to 6, Great surprise was evinced here when the result was learned. I was known that Clemson had ; strong- team, but the idea had no entered the hea'ds of the students generally that we would be defeat ed. But the boys from Clemson did the trick. . One thing which undoubtedly ac counts in some degree for the de feat was the fact that Carolina's men had been keyed to a high ten sion tor- the Virginia game, ana when that defeat came the reaction set in and caused the men to be in rather bad trim. But nevertheless, from what we can gather from the rreports of the game in South Caro lina papers, our boys put up a great game.' ; The first scoring was done by Clemson. when after seven minutes of play Captain McLaurin carried the ball across. McFaddin kicked iroal. Just nine minutes later ! Da vis carried the ball across Clem- . son's line, and Croswell kicked goal, making the score 6-6. Short ly after this McFaddin, - Clemson's left end, kicked a field goal from the forty yard line. In the second half Clemson made one more touch down, the ball being ' carried over by Caughman after it had been ad vanced to the half yard line by' Mc Laurin. McLaurin was easily the star of the game, and the Columbia State says of his work: , "Capt. McLaurin of the Clemson team played a brilliant tackle. His gains through the line and on long er runs was nothing short of sspec tacular. He was a fierce tackier on defense and none of the North Carolina men were able to run a play over him. On offensive work he was equally good and whenever he was given the ball he did not fail to make gains, and he was called on again and again during the game. It would not be a bad guess to say that McLaurin will make the All-Southern this year and judging by. his work in yester day's game he is, entitled to it." The State also gives special men tion to Coles, McFaddin, and Lee and in speaking of the j Carolina players, says: "For North Carolina the work of Maun at quarter attracted ; favora ble comment and he was especially good in receiving punts. ' On the latter plays he usually made good gains for his team and was a diffi- Speeches . by ' Various Students Mr." T. R. Eagles Elected Treasurer. At a meeting of the Athletic As sociation Friday night Mr. T. R. Eagles, former secretary and treas urer, was elected treasurer. For merly one man was- both secretary and treasurer, but the new consti tution requires that the offices be separate and distinct, and at a for mer meeting Mr. J. W. Hester had been chosen as secretary. After the election had been held, the meeting was thrown open for a discussion of the summer ball rule which debars from the athletic teams a student who has received money above expenses far playing summer ball. A free and frank discussion followed, and the burden of each speaker's remarks was that the rule should be abolished.. It was moved that a committee be ap pointed to see what could be done toward securing jts abolition, and the motion was unanimously car ried. President Parker appointed on this committee Messrs. F. P. Graham, W. H. S. Burgwyn, G. M. Fountain, and H. B. Gunter. Charles Prince, Misses Harris, A Bridge Party. Mrs Archibald Henderson gave. a delightful bridge party Monday afternoon in honor of Miss Millie Archer. Those present were Mes- dames Joseph H. Pratt, George Howe, Alvin S. Wheeler, S.

Mrs. George Howe gave a Li nen Shower in honor-of Miss Millie Archer Saturday afternoon, A arge number of the ladies of the village were present and the occas ion was a distinct success. i Each , lady had brought a piece of inen to present to Miss Archer and upon each, piece was a quotation ex- pressing good wisnes tor Miss Archer, who was to be married Tuesday. . The linen was display ed, the quotations were compared, and to Mrs. C. Alphonso Smith was voted the prize for having the most appropriate quotation. Elegant and delic ious refresh- ' meats were served. The Association Needs Money to Complete the New Tennis Park. At last tennis promises to take its proper place as a sport at the Uni versity. In the past neither the faculty nor the athletic association has taken any interest in the affairs of the tennis association. This year the association has been given the old athletic field back of the gym nasium for a tennis park The gra ding for eight first class tennis courts has been started on this field It is planned to make these eight courts first class in every particu lar. When this is done the old un sightly courts scattered around over the campus will be done awav with. ' As yet the funds for the comple tion of these courts are not in sight. The association can grade and level up the grounds with funds now in in sight. The enclosing and mark ing off of the courts is yet to be provided for. The only sources from which the association can procure funds are the membership fees,- proceeds of intercollegiate meets, and contribu tions from friends and the faculty. The faculty is undergoing the pro cess of being touched. The intercollegiate-meets are being pushed as far as is practicable. As the matter now stands it is up to the student body. There are many men in college who play tennis who have not joined the association and paid the small fee of $1.00. If ev ery student who plays tennis would join the association there would be no trouble in making the eight or more first class courts that are planned. Every student that plays tennis or who intends to learn to play tennis owes it to himself and to the University to join the associ ation. The tennis meet scheduled with Guilford has been postponed until Thursday and Friday, November 7 and 8. The doubles will be play ed Thursday and the singles Fri day. Guilford has a strong team, but we hope to win the match. Meets will probably be arranged with A. & M. and Davidson for this fall. The Historical Society. At a meeting of the Historical Society Monday night, Dr. Hamil ton read a paper on the life and ser vices of Kenneth Ravner; and Dr. Wagstaff gave a review of two books Reynold's "Reconstruction in South Carolina," and Dr. Hamil ton's "Reconstruction in North Carolina."
