Two interesting games of foot
ball were witnessed on the Licking
ton gridiron within the past week,
the strong team from the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical College Of
North Carolina playing both the
Virginia Military institute and
Washington and Lee University.
The game with the Virginia
Military Institute took place Sat-
urday afternoon on the prade
grounds, and was witnessed by a
large crowd of spectators. The
North Carolinians won easily by the
score OF II TO nothing. They made
one touchdown and three place
kicks. Forward passes were fire.

the end Of the game Captain Beck

good work for V. NJ, l., but they
lacked proper support, Captain
Wilson, Beebe and Eskridge were
the stars for North Carolina.
Washington and Lee furnished
the officials for the game in Coach

Carolina IN the first half by place
kick, and I. o. Bagley in the

goal for Washington and Lee. The
features Of the game were the end
running by Captain Wilson for
North Carolina, and the general
play of Captain Mocmaw and TO.

open play, but little roughness. On
advancing the ball, Washington

ment. The forward pass, North

games, was soon broken up by the
fast Washington and Lee backs and
ends. The officials were furnished
by the Virginia Military Institute.
