By R. S. PICKENS, (Staff Correspondent) Greensboro, April 29. On the 29th day of the fourth month of the year of Our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and twenty-two, and in the year of President Harry Chase the 38th, the tribe of Carolina took a day's journey into the land of Greens boro and flappers, to do battle with its ancient and honor able enemy, the tribe of Virginia. The Tribe of Carolina won 4 to 0. i ... . The tribe of Virginia came down with little loud talk but threatening j the tribe of Carolina silently. The i Lord was with Carolina and Caro-; lina won. Bryson was also with the ' Tribe of the Tar Heels and with much swinging of bats and much i popping up the Virginian could neither draw water or hew wood. She was hopelessly at the mercy of the mighty Bryson and he allowed them only three hits and one of these was a scratch. Weather Bad. Game, Play by Play. First Inning. Virginia takes field and McDonald first up. Holland gives him base on balls. McLean sacrifices. Fred Mor ris' hit scores McDonald.

Covington knocked but grounder to McLean and was put out at first. The prophet of the weather bu-jMayford flied ont to Johnstoni reau and representative of Jupiter Pluvius, that infernal creature, the enemy of all ball games, did with many silent chuckles and hideous noises cause it to rain water all the hours before the ninth hour .and the followers of the two tribes, which were legion, stayed inside the build ings of the land of Greensboro with much weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. The conflict be tween Jupiter and the gods of Base ball was long and yea, verily, was bitter, but the god of baseball over came the machinations of the weath er prophet and while heavy and thundrous looking clouds did over hang the -city, the great battle was fought. Multitudes of fair maidens and old men did look upon the defeat of the Virginians. With each stroke of mighty valor on the part of the two tribes, the multitudes did let up to the heavens a mighty shout of ex ultation and triumph. The maidens, fair to look upon, from the tribes of Greensboro College for Women and N. C. C. W., did lend their voices to the battle songs of the followers of Carolina, and the music was sweet to listen to. Holland, Virginia Twirler. Holland, sent to the mountain to captain the hosts of the Virginians by the head of the tribe of Virginia, did heave the ball with great force, but with little effect. He was un able to stem the tide of defeat when in the first inning McDonald walked and McLean sacrificed and Wilson McLean snd J Score: Carolina, 1; Virginia, 0. Carolina, 2 hits; Virginia, 0.

Out of 60 games played over a period covering nearly 30 years, Car-, olina has won 21 and Virginia 38. Only one game out of the number resulted in a tie. A total of 26 series have been played since 1891, the year during which the first an nual game was played. The eame Monday is the third game of the 2 7th series. During the 26 years Carolina has won 8 of the series and Virginia 14. In the early years of the annual contest only two games were oft times' playfied some scheduled this way, and in some cases one being rained out. This caused four of the series to result in ties. Out of the 60 erames played, the Tar Hees have succeeded in blank-; ing the Virginians in seven games. I On the other hand the Orange and. Blue squads have repeated this per-j formance only four times. The majority of cases have been tight ones, because of the white hot rivalry between the two institutions.! In 1891 the first annual game be tween the two universities was play-1 B. Miugette.) ed, and resulted in a 6 to 1 victory for Virginia. For four years they continued to win, and held the Tar Heels game register to zero. In 1896 Carolina won her first game and ser ies from Virginia in baseball. The next two series which were played in 1901 and 1902 resulted in Vir ginia victories. Beginning with the next series the Tar Heels began to take heart and completely blanked them. They repeated this perform ance again in 1905. Since then the contests have been nip and tuck. Out of the 14 series won by the Virginians, in 11 of them they did not allow Carolina a single game. Out of the eight series won by the Tar Heels 5 of them have been blanks. In many cases only one of two games were played in the series, which accounts for the high per cent in blanks by the two schools. Virginia blanked Carolina in: 1891, 1893, 1895, 1897, 1901, 1902, 1904, 1907, 1914, 1916, 1920.

BIG SPARKLING CARNIVAL (Continued on Page Five) Captain Manuel Llewellyn, of the Carolina tossers, who was forced to direct the play of his team from the bench yesterday, due to injuries sustained in th last Wake Forest game. t. " To imagine Swpin Hall turned in to a cabaret with dim blue and va rious lights, pretty little tables seat ing attractively costumed couples served by waitresses, and those waitresses, oh boy! masques, spark ling drinks, dancing with strangers with hidden faces, romance, more costumes, more eats and drinks to imagine such a thing is imagining some, but that is what the Satyr Car nival promises.

C. W. Girl Are Hosteie at Social Event of the Celebration and Two Dance Feature. BY .'. J. WADE (Staff Correspondent) Greensboro, April 29. The Gate City this week-end has been a surging throng of young studes 'and bowed down to the master sway of King Baseball. One J. Pluvius has played his part in the procedure but this enemy to calm and quiet was kin der this afternoon and the annual clash between the University of North Carolina and the Univeristy of Vir ginia went down in history, with an other Carolina victory. Guests to the city for the annual contest began to arrive yesterday, and by last night the city saw hun dreds of new faces, many of whom were wearing the confident smiles of the Old Dominion, and on whose coat lapels floated the Orange and Blue. A dance was given in Neuse Hall, and was largely attended by the visitors. Tar Heel Arrive Early The influx of Carolina supporters began this morning, students from Chapel Hill coming by auto and on the special train, on which also ar rived the Carolina club, accompanied by Coach Bill Fetzer, Manager Grif fith and Graduate Manager Woolen. The Virginia team came in last night. ' Alumni from both institutions fig ured in the great number of visitors, and with them were mothers of mem bers of both teams, sweethearts, and people from the home towns of ther teams, all bearing with them a sort of hero worship. It is said that the entire population of McLeansville, the home of Joe McLean, was on hand to see the Carolina second sacker in action. He pasted out a crashing single, scored two runs, and played a wonderful defensive game to the delight of this following. The Carolina supporters naturally far out.iumbered the Virginia dele gation. The two girl colleges in Greensboro were out in force, and they waved the Llue and White in the air and sang praises to the Uni versity with a sentiment and adora tion that was touching to the five thousand hearts that saw the Tar Heels send the Old Dominion lads down in defeat. It was a sad looking town this morning early when the weather ap peared so inclement that playing of the exhibition was extremely doubt ful, but smiles were again in evi dence when Mr. Charlie announced to the Carolina delegation that the game would be played. The streets of Greenshbro were filled with the visitors from early morning, and baseball fandom ruled supreme here. Cone Park was the mecca for hours before the game was called, and whe.i Umpire Brandon announced the batteries, it was crowded to capacity and hundreds stood while witnessing the great battle. Tonight this city is thrown wide open to the visitors. Down at Neese Hall a dance is being given to the. guests, and up at the O. Henrj an- ( Continued on Page Five) WILL ISSUE MONDAY. The Tar Heel will be issued again Monday morning, carry ing some interesting feature material on the Virginia-Carolina baseball records. It will contain an advance on the game Monday afternoon. One feature in this issue will be some interesting dope on the annual spring elections, the the . nominations for which come off tomorrow. ' 7 1 . I a i! Ml i it t I f I.'" 'i 1i in
