No. 50 LYNCHBURG COLLEGE TO L Shirley Regains Old Batting Eye and Lines One Out for All the Bases. VARSITY SLATE IS CLEAN Winding up a highly successful three days trip in Virginia, Carolina was able to tie Lynchburg college in the Bixth inning of a hotly contested ten-inning exhibition Tuesday after noon, when "Mule" Shirley drove the pill in deep left field with two men on bases, and was able to round the circuit on his smash. Lynchburg, who had just defeated Virginia a few days prior by the score of 3-2, was expected to put up a good healthy fight, and the Vir ginia college aggregation did not dis appoint. Thomas, twirling for the Virginians, a portsider, was too much for the Tar Heels, and they failed to smash the ball as in previous games. Shirley, McLean ,and Spruill were the only Carolinians that took a liking to Thomas' offerings, each of this trio garnering two hits off his delivery. Shirley, whom Fetzer has been using in the center garden, and who has been watched with considerable interest and somewhat disappoint ment over his failure so far to strike in stride in batting, regained his old hitting eye at an opportune moment, and it was due to his long drive that Carolina was able to tie the score and come home with none of the games on the wrong side of the column. Spruill had hit a scorcher to third, and advanced to second when Lowe was hit by Thomas. Cap tain "Lefty" Wilson advanced the runners on a bunt to the mound. And then Shirley stepped into one of Thomas' fast ones and drove it into deep left, making four bases on the hit, and scoring three runs, enough to tie the score. Abernethy was in the box for Carolina for thel first five innings, and pitched gool steady ball. In the sixth he gave away to Llewellyn, who has been bearing the brunt of the twirling so far this season, and was at his best against Lynchburg. Lynchburg scored her runs in the third and fifth frames. In the third Sutterfield grounded to third, and Morris threw wild to first, the for mer taking second. Arnold smashed the next ball pitched down the left field foul line for a home run, scor ing Sutterfield ahead of him. In the fifth Arnold singled, Thomas sacri ficed, and Crowell doubled, giving Lynchburg her third score. Box score and summary: Carolina. AB. H. 0. E.

BRYSON BEATS FRESHMEN Winning on Saturday 'oy the score of 9-1, and again on Monday by the score of 7-3, Patterson's first year reserve team took the large end of a three-game series played with the varsity scrubs while the varsity so journed in Virginia, the scrubs win ning the last game played on Tues day, 3-2. The freshman outfit was a recon structed lot from that squad which took the field earlier in the season, and their two overwhelming victories over the scrubs would indicate that prospects are much brighter for a real successful season than they were before the holidays. The scrub aggregation that opposed the fresh men, and which Fetzer was unable to carry along in the first varsity trip, did not show up so well in the first two games but on Tuesday look ed far from being a joke outfit and performed very, very creditably. In the first of the series Saturday Patterson had an opportunity to work all of his likely moundsmen and none of his twirlers were hit hard by the scrubs, only one run being gar nered off the whole bunch. "Fats" Heath was in the box for the scrubs and the freshmen jumped on the southpaw's offerings early in the game, hitting hard and fiercely. But Heath's support was poor, and many errors were responsible for a great number of the scores. The fresh men simply outclassed the scrubs, who presented a rather slipshod ag gregation, in every phase of the game. Second Game. Coffee did the mound duty for the first year team Monday, and with the exception of one bad inning, the first, when the scrubs tallied twice, his work was good and steady, and he held the older team well in check. Hester," pitching' for the scrubs did not go so well, although for the first four innings he held the freshmen scoreless. In the fifth, sixth, and seventh frames, the first year team jumped in and scored two runs in each. In the eighth another tally was pushed across the rubber, giving a total of seven runs compared with the scrubs' three. Third Game. Too much Roseman and Bryson spelled defeat for the freshmen in the final game of the series, the var sity twirlers having things their own way till the ninth when errors caused (Continued on Page Two) GEOLOGY PARTY TOURS iGll FOSSIL BEDS Prouty and Miller Conduct Interest ing Trip During the Easter Holidays. Under the direction of Dr. W. F. Prouty, head of the Department of Geology, and J. B. Miller, a gradu ate student in the University, a party of eleven made, during the Easter holidays, an extensive inspection trip of the fossil beds of Virginia. The party was composed of the following: Dr. Prouty, J. B. Miller, J. S. Babb, W. H. Butt, H. S. Boyce, B. E. Lohr, C. W. Fowler, H. C. Amick, T. G. Murdock, E. J. Alex ander, and George Stephens. All but two of the students who made the trip were upperclassmen or gradu ates. The trip lasted for six days and all report a pleasant and profitable journey. The trip was partly under the direction of J. B. Miller because of his familiarity with the field as he is a graduate of Roanoke College, located at Salem in the vicinity of which the party spent its time. The party first visited the Pre Cambrian Rock beds around Lynch burg. It then went on to Roanoke where it inspected the Lower Cam brian fields. At Salem they inspect ed the entire Cambrian section. From here they went on to the Catawba Mountain section where they secured a fine collection of fossils, in all about 800 pounds. In this section they in spected the Cambrian, Ordovicean, Silunar, Deronian, and Mississippian Systems. The party camped for a while in the Catawba Valley. The purpose of the trip was to train the students in stratigraphic geology FOflTHINE SCHOOLS TO PARTICIPATE IN FINALS Contest for Aycock Memorial Cup to Take Place Here on April 14th and 15th. High school debaters throughout the State have finished the first round of their fight for the Aycock Mem orial Cup and are preparing to march on Chapel Hill for the finals on April the 14th and 15th. There are at present 49 schools enrolled for the final debates here with the possibility of a few more reporting successful during the next few days. Of the teams of the forty-nine schools that have reported seventy six of the debaters are girls. Three teams, Louisburg, Maxton and Mor ven are composed entirely of girls. This shows that the girls in the high schools throughout North Carolina are taking a greater interest in de bating and public speaking each year, and preparing themselves for the citizenship duties that they will have to bear in later life. This contest will be the ninth an nual contest for the Aycock Memorial Cup since its establishment nine years ago. The first preliminaries will be held on Thursday, April the 14th at seven o'clock p. m. twelve halls on the campus. The second preliminaries will be held at nine o'clock in the morning, Friday the 15th and the finals will be held Friday night. Much interest is also being evi denced throughout the State in the intra high school track meet and ten nis tournament which will be held at the University on the same days that the debates will be held. The track meet will be held at half past two Friday afternoon the 15th. The Tennis Tournament will doubtless be gin on Thursday the 14th and will end on Friday the 15th.

CHIEF LONG FLUSHES Auto Thief Captured by Chief, But Dislikes Accommodations and Breaks Jail. A party of eight negro men stole a Buick automobile in Durham sev eral days ago and brought it to Chapel Hill. The Durham police department notified Chief Long, of the Chapel Hill force, to keep his eyes peeled for the Buick and its dusky crew. A short time after receiving this admonition the Chief discovered the automobile and the eight negroes near a local restaurant and attempted to slip up on them and so bag the gang. The Chief failed to come to a stand and flushed the game, being able to apprehend only one of the eight, who was a trifle spindle shank ed and otherwise puny. The Chief remanded his prisoner to the Chapel Hill one-room bastille for safe keep ing, but the spindle shanked one was ill pleased with the accommodations thereof. The ventilation was poor, the mattress hard, and the covering of the bed too thin for early spring night. The prisoner, on looking about, found a loose nail and with this managed to dig his way out of the keep and departed from the Chapel Hill stronghold and the clutches of Chief Long. However, the entire gang has since been apprehended in neighboring towns due to the exertions of Chief Long. Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt has return ed from a trip north, where he visit ed his relatives in Hartford, Con necticut. He also attended the re union of his class at Yale in New York City. He also stopped in Wash ington where he talked with bureau officials in regard to co-operative work with the N. C. Geological and Economic Survey. Dr. Pratt return ed by Elizabeth City, N.

These lectures were established by the Uni versity in the year 1914-15 and their purpose is to treat subjects of Amer ican Citizenship. Since their establishment these lectures have been made a perma nent establishment through the gen erosity of the families of Mr. Sol Weil and Mr. Henry Weil, of Golds boro. The lectures were delivered in 1914-15 by Hon. William Howard Taft; in 1915-16 by Prof. George Brinton McClellan, of Princeton uni versity; in 1916-17 by Mr. James A. Macdonald, editor of The Toronto Globe; in 1917-18 they were not de livered on account of the war; in 1918-19 they were delivered by Prof. Jacob H. Hollanders, of Johns Hop kins university, and in 1919-20 they were delivered by Hon. Robert God win Rhett, ex-president of the Cham ber of Commerce of the . United States. Dr. Munro has taken for his sub ject for this year's lectures "Person ality in Politics." He is the author of various works on government, in itiative and referendum and other citizenship subjects. He is a citizen of Boston, Mass., and professor of Municipal Government of Harvard university. ANCIENT WAR-HORSE OUT OF HOCK AGAIN Speed Machine of Dr. Bernard Re covers After Serious Operation. i. From the midst of a tropical sur-. rounding the once badly crippled speed boat belonging to "Bully" Bernard, professor of Greek and Architecture in the University of North Carolina, has again appeared on the highways and byways of Chapel Hill and may again be seen at any old time in any old ditch along that muddy stretch called the Dur ham road. Deserving a rest from its many long years of toil "Bully's" faithful, antiquated vehicle finally got its deserts some time ago when it collid ed with a non-resisting obstacle in front of the post office. The jar of that aforesaid collision stripped it of one rear wheel and stopped the pal pitations of its smoke weakened engine. Since then an orange crate from the tropical climate of Cali fornia has given it the proper atmos phere at the same time serving as a rear wheel until a circular one could be secured. "Bully" has finally cast aside the orange crate and in its place has secured a shiny, new wheel. After a so journ in what may be styled as a winter resort for invalids, that anci ent has once more appeared. Again "Bully" catches his 8:30 classes on time much to the delight of his stu dents of the Dago lingo. And once more the life of every student at Carolina is placed in jeopardy. IT T Contest Will Be Held April 16 H. C. Harris Picked as Alternate. Dan Byrd and William E. Horner were selected to represent the Phi Society with H. C.

GLEEFUL CO-EDS SEEK TO VAMP POOR FRESH A new thing will soon appear "un der the Chapel Hill sun" as the girls, or in other words the Co-Eds of this institution are going to organize a glee club. The initial members met last Tuesday night, April 5th, for the purpose of organizing the club. The idea is to get together and learn some short courses and to make at least one public appearance this year. After the organization has been completed as far as possible and some practice has been had the club plans to endeavor to entertain the Freshmen, i. e., gentlemen of the first year class, in chapel some lazy spring morning when the student committee in charge of chapel ar rangements finds that convenient. Llewellyn Twirling for Caro lina, Holds Generals to Four Scattered Hits. FOUR IN FOUR FOR LOWE Victory Is Score of 5-2; Fourth Con secutive Win for . Carolina. (By J. J. WADE) Keeping up his record of "a homer a game," Runt Lowe contributed his fourth circuit drive Monday after noon in Lexington, Virginia, and Llewellyn and Fred Morris also took perches in the limelight smashing out similar drives, all of which was very instrumental in enabling Carolina winning her fourth straight victory by the score of 5-2, Washington and Lee being the vanquished. Lewellyn was the shining light of the game, the lanky moundsman hold ing Washington and Lee . to four bingles, while the hard hitting Tar Heel crew slammed out nine off Patrick. But Lewellyn was superb not only in the twirling art, for his home run smash started off the bat tery fire of the Blue and White aggre gation, and he presented four reasons id one drive why Fetzer has been us ing him in the outfield while not serv ing his turn in the box. Aside from the work of Lewellyn the feat of Lowe in driving out his fourth home run in just so many games played, was the most notable. Lowe stepped into one of Patrick's fast ones and in customary fashion sent it to the woods. Fetzer's team again displayed that highly important characteristic of a winning team in swatting the pill and swatting it hard. Besides the three home runs gamed off Patrick a delivery by the heavy hitting Tar Heels, a double apiece was made by Lewellyn and R. Morris, and Morns pasted out another powerful smash that would have gone for a homer if Cobb, playing center field for the Generals, had not made a wonderful catch. Carolina's first run came in Hie third frame when Lewellyn, first up, drove the ball under the walls far his circuit hit. Lowe and Morris got theirs in the following inninc. TIib Generals also scored in the fourth when after Hisle had drawn a nass and taken second Cobb doubled and sent him home. In the seventh in ning Carolina rallied aerain and scored two on hard hitting, coupled with poor helding on the part of Washing ton and Lee. Carolina clearly outclassed tha Generals in every denartment of thn game. McGhee was guilty of Caro lina s only error, while Washington and L,ee had three cost.lv onps rhnlk. ed up against them. The hitting of the Carolinians was far superior to the Virginia clan, and a faster and better brand of ball was presented. acore: N. Carolina: . . . Ab. R. H. Po. A. E.
