Unchurch, of Raleigh, has been en gaged to furnish the decorations, and this firm will undoubtedly give Swain Hall a brilliant and attractive inter- . ior coat of colors. .

All indications noint to the fact that the game will draw the largest crowd which has ever attended a final baseball game for the state title. The Wilson and , Winston-Salem high teams have come up this year throuerh the eastern .aAd western championship series to meet each oth er for the first time in a final state athletic contest. The Twin-City out fit won the title back in 1918. Since then they nave not been able to cop the championship again but in 1919, 1920, and 1921 they won the western title only to lose the final game. Wil son high has won neither a state nor sectional high school baseball title, but last year they had a strong team and onlv lost the final eastern game to Clayton, 1926 champs, by - the score of 6 to 4. Winston and Wilson are old rivals in the forensic contests, havinc? met in Chapel Hill in the final debates of the High School Debating Union of North Carolina for the Ay- cock Memorial Cup in 1925 and 1926 The University band under the di rection of T. S. McCorkle arid the Chanel Hill high school band under I R. Sides will furnish music for the-j occasion. It is probable that the visit ing teams will bring bands of their own. A large number of supporters from Winston-Salem and Wilson are expected to arrive on the campus to morrow to cheer their favorite in to day's encounter. ", ......
