The building' will serve not only as a stately memorial, but will also supply a pressing need of the 'Un versity. The wbnderfuj growth of the institution has made it almost impossible to provide a sufficient number of lecture rooms for the in structors, and has driven over two hundred students into the village for living quarters. c: v: The picture of the building' may be seen in this issue of the. Record. It is modelled after the Boston Pub ic Library, with an: addition of a very beautiful and classic portico and ! nual meeting in June decided to be gin work on the building immedi ately. The 'following gentlemen were appointed a committee, to take the matter in hand, Julian S. Carr, Richard Henry Lew is. John Fries. Francis D. Win ston, Locke Craiffe and Presi dent Alderman. Frank P' Milburn of Charlotte was selected as archi tect and the design herein printed is the work luf his hands. Mr. - Mil burn is a specialist in public build ings and has made the Winston and Charlotte courthouses famous tor stateliness and beauty. The con tract for the foundations and base men t: of the building will be let on October 13th. There is not enough in the treas ury to build this needed building even if all the money were paid in.

Roberson,, for years one of the wealthiest and most prominent cit izens of Chapel Hill, died at his home here of heart failure. Dr. Roberson was fifty-eight years old, and for more than thirty years has been a practicing physician. He had a large practice throughout the coun ty. ' He leaves a wife, four sons' and three daughters to whom the Tar Heel expresses the sympathy of the students, Dr. Roberson had a wide circle.of friends, as was evidenced at the funeral service on Wednesday afternoon.

Last Saturday's game with Guil ford did not please the student body and they had reason to be displeased. TheHwo teams lined up at 2:05 and for fifteen minutes the Varsity time and again carried the ball to the Guilford f ive .yard line, to lose it on a-fumble and then to go down .before the Guilford backs for te n and fifteen yards at a rush. Few there were on the Varsity who de serve complimentary mention for their playing in this game: Early in the firs half there was an inexcusable fumble the ball rolling all over the field with half a dozen failing to fall on iti The Varsity lost their nerve, they became rattled and they never regained their usual steadiness until the beginning of the second half. Guilford, on the contrary, saw them become rattled, took advantage of the opportunity, playing fast snappy ball and making phenomen al gains against the Varsity. In the first half Simmons played the star game for the Varsity and Armfield for Guilford. Simmons was oftetj through the line before interference was formed by the opponents and ' when attempts were made to walk through at his posi tion invariably losses were made. Perhaps in the first half steadiest playing for the Varsity behind the line was the work of Johnson. The playing of Busbee was better than anyone expected as his training this year has only recently begun. In the first half, Worth, the Guilford quarterback, played a plucky game and it is to his credit, more possibly than to any other Guilfordite, that that Varsity did not score early in the first half. His tackling was low and sure and in the interference . was most commendable. Second Half. There is a deal more pleasure writing ot the second hair. ien minutes between ' the two gave Coach Reynolds time to speak a word with the men and in his own way he instilled confidence into the men who went upon the gridiron to fight out a winning game. The placing McRae behind the line apparently pleased the sidelines and bleachers as the applause was iberal. Belden kicked off, a good ong one, down near the south cor- ner or tne ueici ana me vaisuj stopped the Guilford boys gaining he ball going over on downs on the Guilford's o5 yard line. Osbiirn passjd.thj ball to Collins who made a good gain, then McRae followed it up with another pretty run. Belden not to be out done bucked the line for about, seven yards and then well every body knows how it was d'm the ball was passed to McRa '. and by btw.it t ful interference he cross d the bne Continued to fourth page,
