C., April 9th.—By Varsity's inability to conect with the ball, they met their second defeat of the trip here today, from North Car-olina A. and M., in a rather slow but interesting game. Varsity'g only runs came in the second inning when by a single by Stuart, and Hudson being passed, Leech was put on base by pitched ball, filling them up. Sewell next lines an easy one to short, who in en-deavoring to catch man on second by good bone head work and wild throw, ran two men in ^or Varsity. A. and M.. tied the score in the sixth, when Worrell singled to left and scored on Winston's two base hit to right, Winston scoring later on error by McCormick, In the seventh A. and M. put the winning run across by a two base hit and a single. Varsity put up a g6od game, and Leech pitched a good steady game throughout, keeping his hits well scattered. MILITARY NOTES V. M. I. AB. R H. PO. A. E.

C. 19—South Carolina Lexington 21—North Carolina Lexington 22—Trinit y Lexington 26—Guilford < Lexington 2—West Virginia Lexington TRACK The track team is rapidly rounding into good shape for the South Atlan-tic Intercollegiate meet and by May 2nd, when this event takes place it is an assured fact that V. M. 1. will be represented by a team worthy of facing the best men of the other col-leges. Besides Captain Wiltshire the fol-lowing men are out every afternoon getting into good shape: Hardaway, Srhufeldt, Hordern, Marshall, S., Randolph, Hix, Ethridge, Branton, Allison, W., Carson and Averill. Under the able tutelage of Captain Brumage this bunch of men is show-ing form which gives promise of ex-cellent results. The very limited time for practice and the inaduquate training facilities are handicaps which might daunt the hearts of weaker men, but every man is imbued with the old V. M. L fighting spirit, and the results cannot be anything other than favorable. In Captain Wiltshire we have a runner who yields supremacy to none in the dashes, and with Carson, Ran-dolph and Marshall of last year's team, and the other candidates work-ing hard we feel that V. M. I. will surely be heard from in track ath-letics this year. CAPTAIN BRUMAGE'S CHAUTAUQUA WORK Captain Alpha Brumage of the Vir-ginia Military nstitute has engaged his services to the Chautauqua school of Physical education at. Chautauqua, N. Y., for six weeks this coming summer. Captcin Brumage attended school there last summer and also in-structed in football. This summer he returns as instructor of all ath-letics. The Chautauqua achool of Pyhsical education has been run in connection with the big Chautauqua for a long period of years and is conducted by Dr. J. W. Seaver, physical director of Yale University. Associated with Dr. Seaver, are some of the best known and biggest men of the athlet-ic and physical education world. The school is attended by about 250 men and women who are coaches, assistant coaches and physical directors of col-leges and Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations. Captain Brumage will also give a series of ten lectures on Playgrounds and Playground athletics -Lexington Gazette, March 26th. Varsity Drops Last Game on Trip to Trinity On Thursday afternoon the Varsity WHS hel I on its [)ath of defeat by the nine of Trinity colege of Durham, N. C. The defeat rounded out a most disastrous list at the hands of three of Carolina's representatives and the team returns home without a single victory to its credit. Getting ofl" with a good lead in the first, the Var-sity soon became too confident and allowed the North Caroliana to slowly overtake and pat>s its lead. Pitts pitched a beautiful game and deserved to in by a wide margin. The loose playing of his teammates being re- Mponsible for his loss.
