at the 'University". Seventeen
games will be played here which
fact is milk and honey to the local
fans.
Season tickets, costing $5, will
be placed on sale today. This will
be a saving of about $3 on the sea
son. Those wishing1 to purchase
should -see Manager Gray or As
sistant Managers Masten, Osborne,
or S. S. Nash, Jr., at once, as a
certain number must be subscribed
for before any will be issued.
Coach Stocksdale will arrive the
latter part of this week, and prac
tice will begin as soon as possible.
Mr. Karl Jansen Friday Night.
The members of the student
body and the people of Chapel
Hill are glad to have the oppor
tunity of seeing" and hearing Karl
Jansen the great Swedish imper
sonator. Mr. Jansen has had great
success as an impersonator both in
Europe and America. It is natural
that he should; he is a "jack of all
trades and is g"ood at all," He is a
humorist, an impersonator, a man
of splendid physique, and an adept
at fencing. He is good in all sorts
of impersonations from Ben Till
mon to Richard the Third.
His hobby is physical culture.
"Don't carry a chip on your shoul
der, boys," he counsels, "but when
you get in a corner be prepared." He
will give several exhibitions in self
defence and will have a fencing tilt
with Mr. C. D. Ward law. This
tilt will no doubt be interesting,
for the Swede will find in Mr.
Wardlaw a foeman worthy of his
steel.
