The growth of this University's
curriculum has been an evolution
from narrowness to breadth, from a
narrow survey of human knowledge
supposed in some indefinite sort of
way to be of assistance to everyone
in every vocation, to a breadth which
while including the first named
studies, includes also others of more
specific bearing upon specific voca
tions. It added first to the tradition
al Latin, Greek, and Mathematics
which had been reverenced for cen
turies a sprinkling of chemistry and
biology, perhaps elementary courses
in modern languages. These were
the first steps. Today we have the
twentieth century University, with
branches of study covering the ma
jor part of human knowledge. . We
have our departments of law, of
medicine, of pharmacy, and in the
not distant future it is hoped, a de
partment of dentistry.
One blank there is, however,
which none of these will fill. It is
the need for training in journalism,
a field which is of ever increasing
wideness. We have English de
partments unexcelled for their effi
ciency by those of any other South
ern institution. Our knowledge of
conditions prevailing in .Northern
institutions is too limited to allow
comparison, though our Southern
collegiate journalism compares fav
orably with the Northern specimens
which have come under our obser
vation. But though the work of
our English departments is simply
invaluable in the training of future
journalists, an extensive field re
mains into which in the nature of
things the English departments
cannot go. Their training must be,
in a large degree, general. The
technique of newspaper work, the
training of the eye and the ear to
work .together unceasingly for the
discovery of news, the development
of the ability to recognize news at
sight and to properly set it forth
these things lie within the scope of
a Department of Journalism, under
the direction of experienced journa
lists who devote their entire time
to both a theoretical and a practi
cal training in their profession.
The fact that few institutions
have such a departmeut as yet is no
reason why Carolina should not
take the lead in establishing it.

The Tar Heel,' directs atten
tion to the statement, elsewhere in
today's paper concerning the status
of the Y. M. C. A. building pro
ject. A concerted effort is about
to be made to raise the balance of
the money necessary at once and
rush the building to completion.
It is difficult to realize what this
building will mean to University
life, and every moment it remains
uncompleted the present generation
of students is losing something
helpful and stimulating. Many
new students have come in since the
last campaign was waged and no
one dou'ot that their response, es
pecially, will be as liberal as that.
of the students of the past few
years. The mere fact that they
will be among those who reap its
benefits should be an inspiration.

A bulletin to The Tar Heel
from the State department at Ral
eigh brings the warning, among
other things, that the closed season
for deer in Orange county began
March the first and extends to No
vember. We print this for inform
ation. No more rambling through
the wilds of Orange in quest of
the nimble stag, the timid doe; no
more midnight feasts on slaughter
ed venison. Tis hard times, my
masters, but there's no help for it.
The only consolation is that no
mention is made of snipe hunting as
among the sports tabooed. This
much, at least, is left us.
The statement last week that
Messrs. Edwards and Broughtou,
of Raleigh, had been awarded the
contract to print the Yackety Yack
because they had made the lowest
bid was somewhat misleading.
Their bid was not the lowest abso
lutely, but only relatively, the pro
spect for good workmanship and
other things being taken into con
sideration in awarding the contract.
It is announced that Harvard has
snubbed Pennsylvania by ruling
the game with that institution off the
list of those which count towards
winning H's by those who play
in them. The same is true dowu
this way, by the way, but so far
as is kuown the Dutchmen's feelings
have not been hurt.
The present Freshman class
continue to evidence their interest
in debate. In the Di scrub contest
Saturday night they furnished five
of the nine contestants. Heretofore
even one has been rather an excep
tion. The scrub debaters, by the
way, are being selected in the same
old way.
We noticed in the Red and Black,
of Georgia, a few days ago a refer
ence to Herty field. The name
sounded familiar, somehow, and
then we remembered that the Geor
gia park was named lor him who
now is our own Dr. Herty.
