Virginia'srecord for the season has been an uphill affair, as shown by the above summary. With the sum of her opponents score 119 against her sum total of 22, it might seem that the Orange and Blue supporters would be doubtful as to the outcome of the great Southern classic, but such is not the case. The first and middle of the season were anything but indication of a comeback such as has been the case as shown in the more recent con tests against Georgia and Vanderbilt, and the old saying about the bad be? ginning and good ending seems in a fair way of being again proven. In the opening contest of the sea son with Richmond College resulted in a 0-0 tie, which was quite an up set in football circles. The following Saturday saw Virginia go down to de feat before the strong Maryland ag gregation. But the following game the Old Dominion eleven came Tack, and defeated Virginia Military Insti tute 70. Virginia then journeyed North to meet "fair" Harvard's squad, only to (Continued on Page 2) Glee Club Returns From a Successful Tour of West N. C. The University 'Musal Clubs re turned Sunday from their annual wes tern tour, on which they scored a great success in every town. The program offered a variety that would suit the taste of any critic. It con sisted of vocal solos, quartetts, and ensembles of numbers of the orchestra of various types and pf peppy rendi tions by the mandolin club. The club will show in Chapel Hill on Decem ber 5. The personnell of the club this year is of a very high standard. Mr. Weaver, Director of Music for the University is in general charge and is a very excellent musician indeed. Ben Cone and Ed Lindsey are his as sistants while Jimmy Howell is busi ness manager. Besides these the Club .consists of the following: Rond thaler, Lucas, Home, Ross, Powell, Turrentine, Craven, Barden, Davis, Edgerton, Poindexter, Smoot, Nichols, Thompson, Alexander, Proctor, Tom lin, Lackey, Everett, Blount, Hawfield, Simpson and Bivoks.

The University eleven has won thre games, lost three and tied one. This on its face would seem a drab and uninteresting record; but this is not so. Our team is an unusual team in an unusual football year. Take, for example, our three de feats. Rutgers beat us in the first game of the schedule. That does not mean that our team is weak. Rutgers has a powerful eleven, and the team made a most creditable showing. In that first game the Carolina line gave promise of being one of the strongest on the Southern gridiron. The next game of the season brought the second defeat. The white and blue of Yale was too strong for the white and blue of Carolina. Here again, in a game of freakish plays and unexpected breaks, the Tar Heel line was strong. The backfield men could not gain but they showed fight. There is no sign of weakness, no indication of unstable football, in (Continued on Page 7) Track Program and Permanent Coach Is Plan of Cinder Squad The prospects for a good track team this year are quite encouraging. There are six. letter men back, Spen cer (Captain), Nichols, Black, Rand, Smith, and Norfleet, besides a num ber of other members of former squads. At present there are about thirty track men in training, either in track or in football, so that when the regular systematic training is begun a fair sized squad will be in good con dition. A coach will be secured in the course of a few days. The manager is at work on an at tractive schedule which will be an nounced as soon as complete. The State meet and the South Atlantic meet are definitely settled upon, but the dates have not yet been set. An early meet with Trinity is pending and between these there is room for two or three more which will be se cured as soon; as possible. It is hoped that one of these may be with Virginia.

C. ? i 0 1 The University of Virginia Football Squad MAJORITY SAW OVERSEAS DUTY The entire North Carolina varsity football line-up has seen service in the United States army or navy. The majority have been in action on French battlefields. Head Coach Thomas Campbell en tered the Officers Training Camp at Plattsburgh in April, 1917, and was shortly thereafter assigned to duty with the Third Division. Campbell was in France eighteen months and attained the rank of captain. The coach never saw the first line trench es, much to his regret, but was detail ed for duty as a machine gun instruc tor. Assistant Coach Graham Ramsey, for two years all-Southern tackle, re ceived his commission as second lieu tenant from the first Oglethorpe Camp. Shortly thereafter Ramsey was promoted to the rank of first lieu tenant and assigned to the 371st in fantry. Ramsey saw action in the Verdun sector in April, 1918, and lat er received a leg wound in the Cham paigne offensive that put him in a French hospital for three months. Ramsey was awarded the Croix de Guerre. Roy Homewood, coaching Carolina's ends, received his lieutenancy in 1916. Homewood was assigned to the 84th in California. He never got overseas.

MARY'S, PEACE AND OTHERS ARE EXPECTED "A wave of feminism" is the de scription by a student of the inux of guests expected in Chapel Hill for the Carolina-Virginia game here to day. According to reports, this will doubtless prove true, or so it is hoped by many. St. Mary's will be represented by her Senior Class, with the Rector and his wife, Rev. and Mrs. Warren Way. They will be the guests of iMiss Eliza beth Branson and Mrs. Jone Toy. Five hundred girls from the North Carolina College for Women will probably come by special train for the game. Greensboro College for Women is expected with practically the whole student body. Peace Insti tute may possibly have a represen tation of 200 students. One thousand girls, or thereabouts, dropped down on Chapel Hill in a day." "Wave .of feminism" indeed! And all rooting for Carolina! Ar rangements are being made to care for these as well as for the hundreds of other feminine guests expected from all parts of the state. Peabody Building will be turned over to the ladies for use on Thanksgiving Day. !! I .1 . it'! Si . j: j! ij ; r i r i! i T
