Held Day.
Annual Field Day on the ('aril-
pus last Monday proved quite
enjoyable and much credit is
duo those who made it a suc
cess,in spite of the disadvantages
which tli(» dearth of funds has
imposed upon this as well as all
other athletics at the University.
One college record was lower
ed by Cox clipping n fifth of a
second from the time made by
bis brother in the 220 yd. dash
last year. Several other records
were closely approached.
In the first event, the 100 yd.
dash, Johnson, II. (L, won easi
ly in 10 l-. r » seconds, with Cox
second. Johnson’s record lust

told you so.” The predictions
were all the other way. True,
Georgia bad put up a good game
on the previous day, but how
could that crew, clothed in un
matched hosiery, without the
advantages of a coach, and with
only two or three men who had
ever played ball before this year
hope to win out with the great
and only Lawson in the box,
and backed by his coached and
experienced players.
But those of this mind, and
that number comprised every . , ,
one present with the exception
of the Georgia team itself, reck
oned without their host. That
substance known and called in
bygone days, “Georgia grit” is
not entirely a tiling of tbo past,

nection with the team of ’!>(»,
and was decidedly in evidence I
on this particular day.
Capt. Hall won the toss up
and chose the field, thereby se
curing the last trial at the bat,
and with a view to that “Garri
son finish,” which true to his
presentment showed up prompt
ly on time in the ninth inning.
Lawson came up for North
Carolina and confidently laced
out the first ball that Cox de
livered. It soared out in left
field and found a resting place
in safe hands—Baxters. It
