TEAM IS OFF TO VIRGINIA
The baseball team will leave
Chatoel Hill Thursday for a three
game trip into Virginia. On Fri
day the 18th they take another s'-ot
at Virginia. On Saturday they go
on up to Lexington and strike Wash
ington and Lee and V. M. I. on the
I nth and the 21st. The chances
are that Aycocok will again face Vir
ginia and he will likely be opposed
by the south paw Grant who pitched
the last two innings in Greensboro.
Graves will then be sent against
Washington and Lee and Aycock
back . against V. M. I. The
team seems to be in tip top
condition right now and should get
away with all three games.

Robert Stmnge, Jr, has bee n init

Golden Fleece,
Virgjma Beaten in an Exciting Game. Bailey's Three-
Bagger Puts It on Ice
Pitching Keeps It There
Hubert Bailey's three base smash
with the"bases full broke up the-Vir-
ginia game in Greensboro Monday
an 4, at the same time lifted that jinx
which from thetimeimmemorial has
withheld Carolina from victory in
Cone Park. Facingaleadof two runs
garnered in the first inning Carolina
bided her time and in the third
the break came. When the dust
had settled and the shouting and
tumult had died away, five runners
had crossed the home plate and the
victory was in sight.
Then it was that young Mr. Ay
cock showed the Old Dominion
boys what pitching was. He knew
that he had to hold that lead and
hold it he did. In the fifth they
slipped one run across on him and
in the seventh they got another, but
he never lost his head. He had the
old curve ball breaking the corners
and behind him the team was field
ing in big league style. In the
eighth Virginia had. a man on sec
ond and none down. It looked
equally, but the little Governor was
at his best and sailed out to clear
water. In the ninth just to show
them how much, he did have he.
struck out the first two batters and
oaused the third to fly out.
It was a great Carolina Virginia
game and for thrills will rank along
with the best of them. The crowd
numbered around 3, uuu, not so
many as in former years because o
the various postponements. When
rain butted in at Greensboro on the
11th and again at Raleigh's game
on the 12th, it looked as though the
two teams would never come together
and the Athletic Association began
looking around for a receiver. But
Graduate Manager McLendon persu
:ided Virginia to stay over on the ch-
ncethat sun would shine Monday. It
wasawisemove.Theerowd showed all
kinds of enthusiasm and White and
Blue pennants were there in abun
dance. When Carolina rushed ahead
in the third, a grand demonstration
took place. The grandstand, bleach
ers, and side lines rose en masse and
their victorious shouts sounded all
the more glorious after the lean
years.
With the exception of one bad
nning Pitcher Neff handled the
situation pretty well for Virginia
and pulled out of several holes in
his seven innings. In the eighth
Grant replaced Neff, the latter go
ing to short in place f White. In
his two innings Grant pitched to
ut six men.
Aycock did not start off aus
piciously. Finley, wne played a
ereat came, drove one of his first
offerings through short and stole
second on the next pitch- Phillips
was passed and Neff advanced both
runners'with a sacrifice. Lile came
across with a hot liner down the
third base line and both rrnners
scored.
The game was put on ice in the
third inning. Karl Bailey started
off with a clean single and Leak
walked. Edwards hit over Neff's
head and every Udy was safe. A
! and Aycock's Superb
mighty cry went up when Johnson
came to the bat. Neff kept his head
and ; his sharp breaking curves
fanned Carr lin's best slugger, . But
his curves broke too fast with
Williams, one of them catching him
on the knee and sending him to first
while Baily strolled home. With
three men still on Thompson drove
to short. The play was made to
catch Williams at second, but he
beat the throw. Leak scored and
still the bases were soused. Hubert
Baily was the man of the hour. He
caught a fast one squairly and lined
it out. Edwards, Williams, and
Thompson romped home and Baily
stopped at third. Pandemorium
broke loose.
Virginia played desperately after
that and was always dangerovs. In
the fifth a hit batsman and Finley's
single brought one across. Again
in the' seventh the irrepressible
Finley drove a legitimae singlte to
left. Bv great; speed and a Ty
Cobb slide he stretched it to a
double. Phillip's hit counted him.
The best " chance to tie the score .
; cam. ; in ' the ' eighth and , Aycock,
i never showed to better advantage.
With a runne on second and none
out, Beokwith's raoriflce sent him
tojthird. But there was nothing
doing. Stickly popped up and
Green fanned.
. Aycock put everything he had on
the ball in the ninth and fanned
Grant. Finley who had previously
hit safely three times went by the
same rout. The crowd called for
a third strike out on Phillips, but
with two strikes against him he
lifted a long fly to Bailey and the
game was won.
The work of Williams at third,
Thompson in left and Bailey in
center had much to do with Carol
ina's victory. Bailey . hauled in
several long drives. Sticklev . at
third was easily the star for Vir
ginia and his brilliant stops cut
down the number of hits. Finley
led both teams in batting with a
double and two singles.
