Since the g-ame with the University
of South Carolina which was schedule
for Chapel Hill, has now been changed
to Dufhain, we will have the opportu
nity to see-only two Varsity games on
the Hill this fall. One of those games
is to be played with -V. M. I. , this af
ternoon. Don't fail, then, . to go to the
game today, thinking- there will be
plenty motel' Go out and see how the
new erame is played, anT help to win
it by some old time Tar Heel "rooting"
had practically no experience and it
will require time and labor to make
football players of them.
"The schedule this season is partic
ularly hard, such games as Virginia,
Georgetown, Carolina and St. Johns
appearing on it, and it will be no easy
matter to carry off the honors from
such opponents. Our first game is with
Carolina on Oct. 1st, which will be
somewhere near Chapel Hill. They
are eager to play us to wipe out the
defeat of last year and it will be a hard
fjght for the victory. We can get into
shape as early . if not ealier than they
can, but the report is that they have
a very strong team this season.
v Football this season will be so alter
ed from the old game that the first
games are liable to be full of argu
ments and quarreling and probably
the veterans will have many points to
learn before they can be stars at the
new game of football. There will be
many surprises and the winning teams
will be the ones who learn the new
rules first."
Every man in college who is not en
gaged in some other form of athletics
is requested to come but on the track
for the fall practice. Too few men
have responded to the call which was
issued by Coach Cartmell last week.
Both Coach Cartmell and the Captain
for the fall season Captain Parsley,
urge that every man come out who
can, whether he thinks he can do any
thing in track work or not. He may
have his opinion changed by a little
practice.
Captain. Parsley offers three good
reasons " why a man should try for
qualification and the contest on Octo
ber 29:; ;; ""' ' , ' ' '"
First, the training will be of inesti
mable value,' offering. as it does an op
portunity 'for physical training' under
a coach ' who is himself one of the
best trained athletes in the country.
Secondly, great good is to be de
rived from entering any contest that
calls out ' one's powers of endurance
and skill; and in this case a valuable
medal may be won.
Thirdly i ii "will put the contestants
in line for th'e'Varsity track team next
spring.
If any man who could go out for
track is holding back for any petty
reason, the foregoing arguments of
captain Parsley should be sufficient to
convince him that the training will be
worth his while.
Within the past five years Carolina
has played, two games with V. M. I.,
our opponent today.' The resnlt; of
those two contests left'us even as to trie
number of games lost and won, Caro
lina winning in 1905 by a score of 17
to 0 and V. M. I. taking the game in
1909" by a score of 3 tp 0.
Thef two teams will doubtless , be
well matched this afternoon and each
of them may be depended on to do its
best. ' The ' following-' clipping from
The Caded gives us an idea of what V.
M. . thinks of her team this year:
, "The prospects for football this year
are very bright. Most of the old men
have returned, except a few lost , by
graduation. Some of the new cadets
are showing up very wellj especially
those who had experience before comr
ing here. The majority, though, have
CHAPEL TALKS
; The chapel exercises the past week
have lived up to the standard set the
week before in interest, ,.- On Monday
Dr. McNider continued his series of
talks on keeping in health. His 1 sub
ject! was diseases and i how to prevent
them. He sustained, the interest of
the students all through, and when he
finished, the round of applause that
followed as the boys left the chapel
showed that his words had made an
impression.
On Tuesday, Mr. Hall explained the
courses in Bible study v offered by ; the
Y.lM. C. A. this year.; Three couases
are offered, the Life of Christ.'the Life
of St. Paul, and the study of the Old
Testament characters. Mr. Hall made
an ef fctive plea for these courses, shw
ing the practical arrangement of the.
course whereby a man is enable to ac
quire a more thorough knowledge of
the Bible without losing any apprecia
ble ; time from his other pursuits.
This is made possible by a compact
arrangement of the text book, alloting
a few minutes each day to the master
ing of some particula topic. .
v On Wednesday morning Dr. Venabh
made known the coditions upon which
a man may change his course of study.
He stated that in the future all men
wishing to change a given course
would he required to stand an exami
nation on the back work already gone
over in the study they wished to sub
stitute, and until such an examination
was satisfactorily passed the student
would be compelled to attend class in
both the study he wished to drop and
the one he wished to substitute. 'He
told the story of an old farmer who
went into a' shop bearing the sign,
'Woman's Exchange". When the lady
in charge interogated him he inquired,
'Be this the woman's exchange? On
being told that it was he asked, "Be
you the woman?" Upon being told
that his assumption was correct, he ex
claimed, "Well, I guess I'll keep my
same old gal." Dr. 'Venable applied
this anecdote to the view-point of the
student who now wishes to change his
Under the new conditions, u J
Dr. Venable conducted chapel Thurs
day, dismissing the student simmediate

erciscs.
Dr. Venable spoke in chapel Friday
for only a few moments, referring to
the opening of the football season, and
reminding the students of Carolina's
duty as a hostess to the visiting teams
