SOCIAL FEATURES OF THE GAME.
Many WeII-Known People Witness
The Grenf SirngRIe.

the GreHt StruSBe'
In Yesterdays game Virginia and North
Carolina proved that straight, manly foot
ball can be played. and the cleanness OF
it will 90 far towards making the sport
even mere popular than 1t is at present.
Thanksgiving-Day has come to be
recognized as a great social fete, for
every one dons the chrysanthemum OF
his or her choice, and no other engage
ment holds good against a visit to the
interuniversity football match. Yester-
day was no exception to the rule, and
the grandstand and the carriage enclosure
were filled with people Of more or less
prominence in the social world.
II is "the thing to go to the University
game whether you understand the rules
or no, and, on the other hand, there are
full many to whom the game appears
about as interesting as a Chinese puz-
gle. One young lady, with an adult chry-
santhemum blazing from her pocket, ask
ed in plaintive tones of her sister, who
was sitting with her in the grandstand:
How do you tell what is going on?'
and the only satisfaction she got was the
reply: "By the colors." The puzzled ex-
preston never quite left her face, until
she boarded a street-car after the suug-
gle was over.
