near the centre OF the field, In caro-
lina's possession. Score, to 0.
Carolina opened the second nait Dy
kicking the ball for twenty yards. On
side play gave the Tarheel team ten
wards more. and before Virginia got the
han on downs the Carolinas had made
more gains. Rapid play by virginia
however. quickly brought the pan To-
wards the centre of the field, ana the
cadets succeeded in getting the pigskin
within nine yards of Cardinals goal.
Carolina realized the danger, and long
gains by Howell and McRae landed tn me
han twenty-five yards nearer the centre
of the field. Virginia, who had oeeh
playing hard and fast. endeayored IN
vain to push the ball back for anotner
touchdown; but the game ended In hVe
