PROF. SLEDD TELLS OF

Says None Of Nations Know
Why They Are Fighting
Professor Benjamin Sledd of
Wake Forest college delivered a
lecture in Gcrrard Hall Tuesday
evening on "Impressions of Eu
rope in War Times." Protessor
Sledd held the attention of his
audience at all times.
After telling about England
before war times, Professor Sledd
entered upon his main theme-
that is, his impressions of war
ring Europe. He, stated in the
outset that none of the nations
know what they are fighting for
or why they are fighting; that
the Germans say they are fight
ing for their country, the French
sav Hipv nrn fifhtimr for their
freedom' and all the other na
tions give some such reason why
they are at present engaged in
such a gigantic struggle. Prof

CAROLINA REPEATEDLY REsSVIRGINIAS FIERCE RUSHES
Virginia, Her Great Power Taxed to the Utmost, Wrests at End of the
Game Two Touchdowns from Crippled Tar Heels
To strive mightily, to fight as
it for life, to resist powerfully
and successfully through a great
first half the famous Virginia
offense and linally, crippled by
the loss of three of her best men,
to lose was Carolina's fate in
Uichmond Thanksgiving.
Battling brilliantly and vali
antly to the bitter end, Carolina's
wonderful fighting eleven lost by
the score of 14 to 0 to the great
est team that ever wore the Or
ange and Blue of Virginia.
One touchdown late in the
third quarter and another in the
fourth was the utmost which the
noted Virginia offence could tear
from the fighting Tar Heels.
"The bnckfield which crushed
the Yale, defence," said the Char
lotte Observer, "was pushed to
ts utmost. to assemble these twe
touchdowns, and the defence
which kept the Virginia goal in
violate from Harvard feet was at
times hard pushed to withstand
the savage attacks of the Caro
lina backs. Except for two fum
bles at critical moments; the Blue
and White would probably haue
emerged with a tie score, so po
tent was its defence wnen danger
threatened. Undoubtedly, accord
ing to veteran spectators at the
aunual classic, the exhibition ot
fio-ht that afternoon was the most

The game was played in iaea

tude of spectators jammed agains
the fence and packed in th-
t,ut,0rs :iti( trrancistanu was
UICttl' o
record-breaking.
Carolina played Virginia to a
standstill in the first half. Every
Blue and White player fought as
if his very life depended upon
keeping Virginia from crossing
his goal-line. In the first quar
ter, Carolina with the ball on her
two-yard line three times threw
back the Virginia onslaught led
by the miglity Mayer and Ander
son. , . '
In the second half, fighting
desperately but terribly crippled
by the loss of Tandy, Cowell and
MacDonald who were taken from
the game badly injured, Carolina
was borne behind her goal line
twice by the Orange and Blue at
tack. No one man outshone his team-

FOOTBALL CAPTAIN
Carolina Center Chosen
Thanksgiving Night
George Tandy was elected cap
tain of the Carolina football team
for next year at the team's annu
al banquet at the Murphy Hotel
in Richmond after the Thanks
o-iving game. Tandy through
out his three years on the Caro
lina team has been one of the
most brilliant and dependable
players, both on offence and de
fense, and his dropkicking has
won more than one game for the
Blue and White.
He wns given the position of

In this year's Virginia game
he displayed a remarkable cour
age and nerve. Although his
collar-bone was broken in the
second play of the game he con
tinued to play until the third
quarter and despite his injury put
up such an excellent game that a

that he had never seen any man,

second quarters. Just at the end
of the first quarter he opened a
good hole for McDonald to plunge
through, and then took Mayer
out of the secondary defense.
One of the prettiest pieces of
defensive work in the whole game
occurred in the third quarter
when Cowell, broke through and
hrew Mayer before he got start
ed on an attempted end run. . .
The fight put up by, the Caro
lina forwards on their two-yard
line in the first quarter will long
linger in the memory of those
who: saw it. The Bine and White
line was simplv, impregnable,
holdinglikethe proverbial "stone

to carry the oval over, J. Tayloe
broke through and downed Mayer
in his tracks.
