death of Woodrow Wilson brings
particular sorrow to Davidson Col

student, having entered in the fall
Of 1873 and remained until just be-
fore next commencement. when he
left on account of ill health.
During young Wilson's stay at
Davidson. he chopped his own wood,
pumped his own water, washed his
lamps and cleaned his room in the
historic Chambers building, which
was destroyed by fire two years ago.
His average grade for the year was
81 IL. His classmates have remem-
bered him as. an all.round young
life. and especially versed in cur
rent politics.
He early was made q member of the
Eumenian Literary Society and in De-
cember he led the negative of a de-
bate on the query: Resolved, That
republicanism is better form of
government than a limited monarchy."
Thomas Wilson, as he then was
known. took some part in college
ing played with the freshmen in a
crucial base ball game and losing the
game because of his failure to make
the run from third base to home plate
in necessary time, calling sharp re-
buke from the coach. He was a class
mate of the late Gov. Glenn of North
Carolina. and the former governor is
quoted as having recalled in later
years an occasion when Wilson won
a base ball game by an unexpected
and almost superhuman leap after a
long f1y.
