ALFRED NOYES, PCET.
Alfred Noyes comes to Chapel
Hill, reads half a dozen poems,
and what then? Just this and
here's the biggest thing to be
got out of his visit: poetry takes
on a new aspect before the pic
ture of the man and the sound of
his voice. No man can listen to
him and then believe that poetry
is a printed word on a paper
page. You may read all clay
from Manly's English Poetry
and your heart may never beat
the faster. But let a real poet
speak to you and he lifts you out
of yourself by the power of his
own souK No University man
can think now of poetry as nec
cessarily feminine or mystical or
not to be understood; nor can any
University man picture a poet as
a wild-eyed, long-haired freak,
Here is a calm, sensible, clean
looking, athletic young man who
makes poetry a " reality, " who
openly earns his bread by verse,
who brings a new conception of
the art. We take our hats off to
Alfred Noyes, Poet.

THE PEACE OF THE FACULTY.
Members of the faculty repoit
that someone, presumably stu
dents, has been throwing rocks
on the golf greens at the Country
Club and thereby making rouyh
those delicate surfaces. That it
was done thoughtlessly is almost
certain; but that it is a serious
offense is equally certain. Throw
ing a heavy rock on a golf green
amounts to about the same thing
as ploughing a furrow across the
baseball diamond or the tennis
courts. It means for someone
work, time, and expense, and
above all, it is a breach of good
manners. Let the faculty play in
peace. .
CCME C?C DEBATERS. ' i
Last year the whole stats rose
up and " . called the Uni versity
blessed for inaugurating, perfect
ing, and carrying through to a
successful conclusion the High
School Debating Union. This
year the praise has been re
doubled. From all sides come
congratulations on the even more
successful handling of one of the
very biggest ideas that has ever
struck North Carolina. Five
hundred debaters representing
125 schools have opened up the
question of the Initiative and the
Referendum before some 30,000
people-and the thought level of
the -state has risen a notch. '1
date 31 schools 1 have reported the
double victory necessary for
qualification in the finals, and
the University will therefore have
the pleasure next week of hear
ing at least 124 high school
speakers fighting like mad for
the Aycock Memorial Cup and
the championship of the state.
With the scores of athletes
coming at the same time for the
State High School Track Meet,
and with the superintendents,
teachers, supporters, and chaper-
ones, the University will be host
to some 250 people, cream of the
North Carolina high schools.
Stop a moment and think of it.
Two hundred of the best young
men and young" ladies of the
state will next week visit the
University. The big majority
of them are going to college next
year. They are the students we
want. Their visit to Chapel Hill
will go a long way towards bring
ing them here next year or send
ing them to other institutions.
What we, the nine hundred odd
of us, do next week will have a
definite, tangible, visible result
on the University and the state.
Surely no finer opportunity : for
service was ever offered to will
ing hands. There can be but
one result.
ON TEE MP.
If there is anyone who. still
clings to that ancient doctrine
that Chapel Hill and University
of North Carolina are quiet, se
cluded, peaceful vales of happi
ness, we beg to point out a (ew
of the activities that are making
this place the busiest in the state
Take a glance around: beginning
with today there are six baseball
games in eight days, besides
scores of class team skirmishes;
three track meets in the next ten
days, the class meet, the high
school meet, and the Wake For
est meet; the High School De
bating Union's championship
try-outs, with its two hundred
visitors; the intercollegiate de
bates with Virginia and Johns
Hopkins; the closing of the con.
tests for ths Preston Cup and the
Colonial Dames' Prize; the three
McNair Lectures; all the festivi
ties of the Easter week blow-out,
with its dances and with its class
stunts, including the classic Sen
ior Stunt. These are by no means
all, but they are enough. If a
man cannot find some work for
himself in this list, the fault is
his own. And, by the way, we
do have to study too.
