C, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1912 NO. 8 GEORGETOWN WINS FROM CAROLINA Four Touchdowns in the Third Quarter Tells the Story of Catholic Victory FINAL SCORE WAS 37 TO 10 Carolina Fought Hard and Played Good Ball. Fumbles by Tar Heels and Brilliant Plavinir by Costello in Third Decide the Result. Fighting every inch of the way and putting up a marvelous de fense against a team credited with being- the strongest in the o - South, Carolina fell before George town in Richmond Saturday, 37 to 10. Not untill the second half did Georgetown cross the Tar Hee goal line, Stevens placekick in in the first quarter and Costello's drop kick in the second quarter left the score 3 to 3 at the end of the first half. In the third quar ter inopportune fumbles, brilliant open field running by Costello and terrific line-plunging by White rolled up four touchdowns. White added one more in the final quarter. Carolina's touch down came in the third quarter, on Tillett's 20-yard run. The general id a before the game was that a team that scored twenty poin ts against the Carl isle Indians in one half would swamp Carolina. But that first half upset all calculations. George town was the aertrressor and forced the ball in Carolina terri tory, but the defence would not yield to the plunges of White, the 200 pound full back. Huske recovered a fumble kick in the middle of the field. Carolina took courage and rushed to the 20 yard, where Stevens sent over a place kick. Costello's drop came in the third Quarter after he had failed twice. The first touchdown of the game came early in second half. Costello opened the period by kickinir to Abernathy, who fum bled the ball, and Moriarity fell on it like a flash. After one line plunge by Dave White, which netted two yards, Costello went around the left end through 'a a broken field for a touchdown, and followed by kicking goal. Foley scored the second touch down after White, Costello and Fury had carried the ball to Carolina's six-yard line, where he shot through the line for the touchdowu, after which Costello kicked goal. In the same period Tillett fumbled on the 42-yard line and Dave White got through the left side of Carolina's line and ran 30 yards for the third touch down. Costello again kicked goal. Then came the Tar Heels' only touchdown. Tillett kicked high to Costello who was on his 20- yard line. The quarterback fum bled, Moore recovered the ball, and Tillett in one play carried the ball over. Costello, to retrieve himself for his fumble, ran 55 yards through the whole Carolina team for an other touchdown and kicked goal. Continued on Fourth Page. ELECTION NEWS RECEIVED Chapel Hill Gathers to Hear of Wilsons Tiiumph Election night was too much for sleepy Chapel Hill. She abandoned her usual role and be came for once city-like in appear ance. Up at Gerrard Hall where the returns were coming in, one might have easily imagined him self in a big city before some newspaper office. Astute minds back of the Ath letic Association realized the material value of the student body's interest in politics and made arrangements for a direct telegraph line from Richmond They calculated well. The bot tom floor of the Chapel was com fortably filled at twenty five cents per. Ideal arangements were made lor givinsr out the news as it came in. The wire led right in the Chapel and the operator as he took down a message pass ed it on to Lee Wiggins who be tween bites on an apple dictated to Mr. Charlie Woolen at a type writter. Mr. Woolen then pass ed it on 1o Professors Daggett and Patterson who had been in terested enough to bring the big stereoptican lantern from Physics departmentup to Chapel. They threw the news on a screen at the front of the Chapel. And then the crowd cheered. It was for Wilson air right, though the .Progressives were not entirely dumb. The Faculty was well represented and showed unusual interest. At different places on the floor erroups would gather and discuss the situation. There was little doubt as to the out come, but everybody was in terested in the size of the vote in the big doubtful states. New York was heard from early, but there were many inquiries about Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Massachusetts, and California. As the crown increased and as the news showed the full extent of the Wilson landslide, jubilation began. Tbe room was blue with smoke and the cracking or pea nuts sounded every where. Mr. Boger had his entire family selling peanuts aud apples and he must have made a fortune. The good-humored crowd repeat edly cheered. Wilson's picture caused a perfect storm of applause ad Senator Simmons' face was enough to raise the roof. Interest appeared stronger in the senatorial race than in the nationial contest Again Simmons had the crowd, but plenty of Kitchen followers were in evi dence. The certainty of tho outcome worked against wide spread enthusiasm. In the county Mr. George Pickark's race for the the legis- ature was the chief attraction n spite of the fact that Mr.Prick ard has been running everybody , off the Campus who had a base ball in his hand, he was a hot favorate with the crowd who appeared to be surprised a the closeness of the contest. The announcement tnai wr. uoger nau cast the only Socialist vote in the countycalled forth repeated cheers from the crowd. 1 I A- f T t 1 Coutinued on fourth paga THREE CLASS FOOTBALL GAMES Sophs Beat Seniors, Juniors Beat Seniors, Juniors Beat Freshmen 1913 HAS YET TO CROSS GOAL LINE Juniors Show Best Form,' 'Seniors "Worst, While Freshmen Fight JWell, btfXoseTHeart Toward thelEnd and PutTUp Weak Resistance; CZ.1 They haven't done it yet Who?

Tradition was too strong In re venue they held the boohs once within their own three yard line. The Sophs tried" four . times. Later, however, the Sophs made their first touchdown. The Sophs started off with a rush, only to lose the ball by Paty's fumble on the eight yard line. In the second quarter the Seniors intum brought the ball to the three yard line, only to lose it on downs. With fifteen seconds to play, the Sophs went back half the length of the field on two passes. Lipscomb blocked the Seniors' kick in the third quarter on the fifteen yard line, but the Seniors held and Carriugton staved off defeat" with a longpunt. In the fourth quarter the Sophs got started and didn't stop until Lips comb went around left end for a touchdown. Anderson then kicked a beautiful goal. The Sophs worked six forward passes out of seven. Fuller to Thompson, the latter easily do ing the best work tor the Sophs. Paty made consistent gains on end runs. Carrington made most of the Seniors' ground with off- tackle plays. On the whole the Seniorsshowed a lack of practice, while the Sophs evidenced great improvement over " last "week's game.

In past years this has not been considered as one of the big contests. Last year with a crippled team 21 points were rolled up against her. But South Carolina is said to have one of the best teams in her history. Virginia defeated her 19 to 0, but only after a hard game. Her recent victory over Clemson by a big score indicates the caliber of the team. In Cap tain Von Kolnitz and quarterback Hey wardshe hasjtwo hard run ners. At one tackle is Dunn, an old Davidson star and captain. The Varsity is getting into good shape. The men came out of the Georgetown game unhurt save for minor bruises. Holme wood will probably'be at one end. His work against Georgetown was most encouraging and he should develop fast. Albert L. Cox of Raleigh has-been helping coach this week. He played a brilliant end in his day and was named for an All-Southern team. Afterwards he had experience at Harvard. THE DONKEY AND THOULL MOOSE CLASH Continued from fifth column Dr. C. L. Raper presided over the debateandG. B. Phillips and R. W. Isely actedas secretaries. J. C. Busby opened for the Demo crats. He took up the question of Progressives and.'declared that Wilsonwas theonly true Pro gressive in the field."fRoosevelt stole his Progressive"! ideas? from La Pcllette. "Rather than fol low Roosevelt," he said, "I would follow'that greateactionary, the devil himself, and know where I was 'going." P. H. Gwynn jumped on Wilson for inconsistencies, saying that at one time the Governor at tributed the trusts to the tariff; at another time, to competition; at one'ltime he wanted trusts handled by the individual Stute, at another by the national "gov ernment. J. W." Hester, favorite with the crowd on account of his tell ing shots, said the Progressive partyorigiuated yvhile Roosevelt was shooting sleeping rhinocer oses in Africa with a pump gun. The Third Term party was born in Chicago with Roosevelt as the father, mother, attending phys ician and the offspring too. T. J. Hoov er, discussed the tar iff and showed thatthe cost of living was high in free trade countries'and.that therefore the tariff was not the cause of this condition here. Jehu Johnson's most effective statement was that the Republi cans made the" dollar the unit, thw Progressives, one man, and tbe Democrats, mankind. For W. C.

Hoose- The Democratic Donkey and the Progressive Bull Moose fought il out it Friday night be fore some four hundred students. It was the long-heralded debate between the Woodrow Wilsou Club, and the Progressive Club," and the six speakers shook fingers in each other's faces for an hour and a half ove- in Gerrard Chapel. The Deirocrats, were repre sented by John Calhoun Busby and those two war-horses, John Johnson and John W, Hester. mighty stup speakers before the Lord. Less experienced in political combat, but all the more zealous on that account and show- : ing the earnestness of the many- f sided Colonel, ere P. H. Gwynn, : T, J. Hoover (who derided per- .' sonalities in one breath and ap plied the short but ugly epithet , in the next), and W. G. Harry,, the king-pin of them all, Bull Mooser through and through, who poured out words at an aston ishing rate and gesticulated like the proverbial wind-mill. Ard many there are who think that the clean cut discussion of the is sues of the campaign by the Bull Moosers more than offset the old fashioned knock down-and-drag-out style of tbe Democrats. The Democrats disc ssed per sonalities; the Progressives dis cussed issues. r Busby, Hester and Johnson talked about the Colo el. They cussed him out coming and going. They made fun of the third term movement, of Roosevelt's African hunting trip, of his personal ap pearance. They shot all sorts of sarcasm at the Progressive Party which,' they declared, was con- ceived in a spirit of poor sports manship . after the first ' Chicago, cemvention.

They rushed all over the ros trum, yelled themselves hoarse, told jekes, and appealed gener ally to the emotions. . And then came the Progressives. They seemed to have made some prepa ration and to be well versed in their subject. They were in deadly earnest and had no time for joking. It may not have been the accepted manner of appealing to the "peepul," but it was calcu lated to appeal to thinking per sons. Very little personality was engaged in. They stood squarely for the Progressive platform, and particularly that part of it re lating to trusts. Not so finished speakers as the Democrats and working under the handicap of a hostile audience, they neverthe less made a decidedly good im pression. Continued on fourth Column
