their usual good game tomorrow, and it
is useless to say that the rest of the
team will play up to the standard
The A. and NJ. team has done some
good, hard practicing this week, and ex-
poets to play a close and interesting
game. The seating capacity at the Fair
grounds has been increased, and the
entire field enclosed by an iron fence to
protect the players from the spectators.
The management insures perfect order
throughout the entire game, and each
cadet officer of the Battalion, in addi-
ton to a SQUAD of policemen from the
city Will be on hand to keep every man
outside the ropes
A great crowd is expected, and it is
hoped that the three Female Institutions
in Raleigh will attend in a body. The
\. and NJ. Cadets will be out 400 strong
to back IN their team.
1t is regretted that Captain Gardner
will not be in the game on account of
injuries received in the V. p. l. game.
The line up of the A. and NJ. team will
be as follows: Tucker, L. E.; DevIin,
l.. t.; Carpenter. l.. G.; Hadley c.;
Beebc, r. G.; Neal, r. T.; Gulley. r. E.;
Darden, O. b.; Shannonhouse, l.. a. T.;

Personnel OF UNIVERSITY TEAM.
Captain Frank L. Foust, who has fol
three years represented Carolina on the
gridiron with credit to the institution ana
himself, will play his old position-left
tackle.
Billy" Jones, right tackle, is worthy
OF the distinction to be classed with his
colleague, Captain Foust. He is a great
line bucker and can give a Bronco a few
points.
Stewart, at center, has made wonder
1ul improvements IN every respect anC
his presence has. been felt in every game
played this season.
DCnneIly, ut left guard. is perhaps the
Best developed man on the team and he
never fails to take advantage of his
physical greatness.
Farlow the big Quaker friend, dis
charges the duties of left guard in a
manner becoming any good football play
or. He is a tower of strength to the
Carolina line
Albert Cox, Cardinals reliable right
end last year, has been suffering from
bruised knee, but rapid improvement
