Just as happy as though each one had
come into the possession Of a million, and
they didn't hesitate for a moment to show
IL in the most wildly demonstratiye way.
The grand-stand and bleacheries could
scarcely contain the people with the
enthusiasm, too, and the air was laden
with hundreds Of vocal selections, all on
different keys.
Baskerville's next kickoff was highly
credltabIe. The ball dropped on the thir-

WANTED A BIG SCORE.
The Vlrginians evidently wanted big
score. They were greedy and hardly had
the ball been taken TO the kickoff be-
fore they commenced rushing 1t terrifcal-

success giving the men all the encourage

settled at this time that unless North
Carolina did some phenomenal work they
would not score at all

GROSER's FINE WORK.
During the remaining eleven minutes
several brilliant plays we're made by the
Virgirians. though Il Is only justice TO
the Tarheels TO say they struggled : hard
as ever men did against their physical
superiors Baskerville's kickoff sent the
ball to the fifteen-yaTd line. Pope was
there. He clutched the ball, and. by a
clever run around right end, for while
eluded Merritt and Baird, gaining TWEEN
tv-hve yards of territory The play was
still fresh in the eyes Of the Nirginans
when Taylor went plunging around lett
end. Burlngame and, notably, Johnson,
guarded him beautifully, so that It was
welnigh impossible for Pugh and Gregory
to get at him. Johnson followed up this
bit Of clever work by gain or I'VE yards,
and Hicks made it two more through
centre. Then il was that Groner arose
like a cyclone and did some brilliant
work. He not only pushed through centre
for three yards. but effected a clever run
around right end, on the sly, for another
gain. and when an off-side play entitled
| Virginia to ten yards advance, carrying
the ball within twenty yards OF the
Carolinans' goal, the clearheaded right
half took advantage of a big risk TO go
around Pugh for five wards. Pcnton had
lust gained three yards through centre,
and only twelve yards remained 20 put
the ball over At this point Virginia
fumbled, and the CarOlinians secured the
ball. In the play Captain baskerville

The FINISH.
