by DR.. Chas. H. Herty, and Mr..
Charles T. Wooden, and engaged
in by over 800 students.
The University tennis team,
composed of George Fountain, a
second year law student, and
Charles Venable, a member of
the Senior Class, have made a
triumphal sweep of the State Of
Virginia. They have defeated
Randolph Macon, Richmond Col
lege, and the University Of Vir-
ginia, capturing both doubles
and singles in each meet. In
the four intercollegiate meets
this fall. North Carolina has
not been scored against, and her
total score is 400 to her oppon-
ents 0. This is perhaps the
most brilliant record in the his
tory of inter collegiate tennis in
the South.
The University here is in
mourning in sympathy with the
University of Virginia on ac-
count Of the death of Christian
which resulted from an accident
in the football game Saturday.
News had just been received OF
the victory of the Carolina team
which defeated Washington and
Lee 6 to 8. when a telegram
came announcing the fatal ac-
cident. The spirit of joy at sue
cess was turned into sorrow by
this message. A telegram OF
coincidence was sent expressing
the sympathy of the faculty and
student body. The Thanksgiv-
ing game has of course been can
celled and in place of the spirit
of wild enthusiasm there per-
vades a spirit of resignation.
DR.. Venable spoke of the ac-
cident at the chapel exercises
this morning and left in the
minds of his hearers doubt as
to whether football would be dis
continued at this university or
not. The last scheduled game
of the season has been played.
DIR. Joseph Hyde Pratt, pro-
fessor of economic geology, at
tended the second annual meet
ing of the North Caroiiha
Drainage Association, and made
one of the principal addresses
before the Association. DR..
Pratt is vitality interested in
every economic need Of North
Carolina, and is doing more for
the good roads movement than
any other one man.
