Tine Tar .-Heel T UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA. Published Every Thursday by the General Athletic Association. - Edward W. Myers, - - Editor-in-Chief, George S. Wills, A. B. Kim bali,, Elisha B. Lewis, . J. O. Carr, M. H.Yount, J. C. Eij.kr. ; Darius Eatman. Business Managers. Hahkv Howeu, Jno. A. Moore, : ' JAS. A. GWYN, . Entered at the post-office in Chapel Hill, N C, as second-class mail-matter. Mr. McGuire has concluded that the college papers are not the prop er tribunal for settling the mafter in dispnte between us, as suggested in these columns some weeks ago. The whole affair is to be left to a committee, and the charges will be referred to them. Exactly who will compose the committee has not vet been decided. The Pan Hellenic Tennis Tour nament is announced to bejrin on April 17th. This is the second an nual tournament of the Association, which was organized last spring. The Association offers a prize of a handsome silver cup to the repre sentatives of the Fraternity win ning it three times in succession. Now that the tournament is ar ranged why not have a tournament. both singles and doubles, open to the whole college upon payment of some, slight entrance fee? There was one last spring and -we should not let the ' custom lapse; as it af fords not only interest to the mass of the students, whether tennis play ers or not, but it tends to advance the athletic interests of the college, Then after playing this tourna ment, why not issue a challenge to all southesn colleges to contest for the championship of the Southern States, and let the winners of the tournament representus therein? A NEW BALL team has been or ganized in college during the past week, under the auspices of "Ivishe" Lewis. It is to be known as the "Longs and the Shorts; the Fats and the Leans." The personel of the team, so far as now made public, cousists of "Legs" Lindsey, "Vic" McAdoo, "Towser" Sharpe, "Hops" Price, "Jahi" Hubbard, "T. G." White, "Lishe', Lewis and Joe Graham, and there is still another place va cant for another midget. The team is to be run on a very original plan, every man to play all the nine posi tions, changing every inning, and though "Legs" and Joe Graham have been practising as battery, ev ery man at the ' beginning of the game is to play the position of his choice; the best man t" get ; the place. Some tall ball-playing is expected. Under the recent amendment al lowing additional Editors for the University Magazine, H. MacCall '96, R. E. Coker '., of the Di. So ciety; Harry Howell '95, and Leslie Weil r95, of the Phi. Society, have been chosen. The number contest-1 ing was large and some good work was submitted. Whoever has charge of the Athletic Field ought to see that the wire-fence screen is fixed up properly, and then see that loafers are kept away from it. Senior Debate. In another column appears a con tribution from a student of the Uni versify asking if some means may not be devised whereby Monday of Commencement may be' enlivened by appropiate exercises which would make it more than a mere blank as at present, intervening between the Baccalaureate sermon and what are now Commencement exercises prop er. The query is timely, and in this connection we venture to sug gest that to render Commencement in a fuller measure expresive of the intellectual life of the University, some provision should be made for a Senior Debate,' complementary to the exercises of the Senior Orations. The exercises of this debate might very well be on Monday of Com mencement. . , At presents the Senior Oratorical Contest is made a chief; feature of Commencement. This is as it should be. The rigorous and inflex ible though very just regulations governing the selections of partici pants in this contest justify the im portance given these exercises on the Commencement program. But by no me; ns all of the Seniors com pete for these places; and of those who do compete only the six best orators are chosen. There is al- was a large element of every class- who would not take part in this or atorical contest if places were vol untarily assured them. Many of this latter class are proficient de baters and would enter into the preparation of a Senior debate with the same ardor and zeal characteris tic of the Senior Orator in the pre paring of his Oration. Would not such a debate be quite as interesting and entertaining as the Senior ora tions? There would be as good talent to select these debaters from as was available to select the orators from; for indeed these exercises would at tract men who would not offer them selves as candidates for an orator's place. The same Regulations might of course govern the selection of de baters as orators. The Literary Societies could verv well afford the small outlay neces sary to purchase y. suitable Debat er's Medal, for aside from the fact that an increasingly larger per cent age of successive Senior Classes do not for one reason or another inter est themselves in the oratorical con test, and should therefore have an option between competing for the Orators' or Debaters' Medal as a gainst an option now of competing for the former or nothing; aside from this consideration we say, the life of the Literary Societies would be permanently quickened and stimulated, and thus would be strengthened the spirit in the Uni versity which would contemplate any decadence of the Literary Soc ieties with greatest anxiety and solicitude. More New Trustees, y- The Legislature elected the follow ing: Trustees of the University, in ad dition to those already published: W. E.-White, Alamance; V. S. Lusk, Buncombe; T. W; Babb, Perquimans; Angus Shaw, "Robcrson; P. H. Mor ris, Randolph; J. M. 'Thomas; Ruth erford. 7 Mr. Riddick, 'representing T. J. Lamb, of Durham, is on the Hill with a sample line of clothing, shoes, etc. It has been a matter of comment for several evenings past that al though Captain Oldham has request ed all to keep back of the nettings in the ball park while the team is practicing, yet some studentsliave seen fit to disregard his courteous and justifiable request. There are in this institution as in all others some who suffer under an exagger ated idea of their own importance, which is unhappily shared by any one else, and it is such at these who imagine that the request could not refer to them, as of course the team could not play at all unless they were within ten feet of the home plate. It is time that such suffer ers from elphantiasis of the caput be taught to do as others who are in authority see fit to request when it is in their power to command. It is such conduct as this which causes the manager to close the gate to all, and quite regretfully too, for the interest of the: team j should be considered beyond everything- else. A Nusalnce. There are somethings in college that everybody recognizes as nu siances, and of course every one feels himself bound to help get rid of such troubles. It is very pain- j ful, however, to see men consider j such things as balls nusiances and do their best to make them as scarce as possible. Well boys what do you think of such a man anyhow? To say the least he - doesn't strikt me favorably; its down right horse- thief stealing. It isn't the captain's business to watch three hundred men presuming all to be rogues. This is about the state of affairs. Balls are stealthily borrowed (?) every afternoon and never returned. Boys, lets down any such prac tice. It can't exist unless sanction ed by us. The balls don't belong to the captain any more than they do to you. It is simply a trust im posed on him by the Athletic Asso ciation. You, as members of the As sociation, are bound to help him in his zi'ork. Fpr Sale.
