at HEEL li i. i i w mi OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA VOL. 24 UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, CHAPEL HILL, N. C, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 7, 1915 NO. 5 IN MEMORIAM AD BUSTER UNIVERSITY DAY PROGRAM CAROLINA WINS FROM CITADEL 14-7; THE BELONGS TO UNIVERSITY Commons Hall Given to Uni versity By Owners Old Commons Hall, built pri marily for a ball room in 1885 and later used as a gymnasium and dining hall, will soon be deeded to the University, accord ing to the decision of the stock holders of the University Gymna sium Association in session here last week. The papers have not been signed yet but that is a mere matter of form that will be carried out later. Back in 1885 a number of young men, students of the University, desired to have dancing at the college. The then "modern dan cing" was however prohibited by the faculty regulations. Conse quently they formed an associa tion and purchased the building now known as Commons Hall. As Commons was rented to the Uni versity for a gymnasium except when the dances were going- on, these students called their or ganization the gymnasium asso ciation. The building has been in the unbroken possession of the association ever since. At a meeting held last week in the office of Dr. R. II. Lewis, President of the Association, there were present besides Dr. Lewis, Dr. K. P. Battle, Dr. F. P. Venable and Mr. Jos. P. Che shire, Jr. Votes from those pres ent and from the absent stock holders by proxy carried the mo tion to convey the building to the University. v:: :.. J V , .. QUERY FOR HIGH SCHOOLS "The U. S. Should Greatly Enlarge Its Navy The query which will be dis cussed this year by the schools having membership in the High Shool Debating Union of North Carolinais: "Resolved, That the United States should adopt the policy of greatly enlarging- its . Navy." Every secondary and high school in the state is invited to become a member of the Union and participate in the contest of 1916. Every school that enters will, as in the past, be grouped with two others for a traingular debate, each school putting out two teams, one on the affirmative and the other on the negative. The schools winning both de bates will be entitled to send their teams to the University to compete for the state champion ship and the Aycock .Memorial Cup. The triangular debates will be held throughout the State the latter part of March and the final contest at the University early in April. The exact dales for these contests will be decided All Star Ofticial Dog ot the University Taken Away By Owner Buster has left the University. Every upper classman knows and feels the effects which his unfor tunate departure will have upon the campus life of Carolina. Last Friday at noon Mr. Dixon, the original owner of the dog decided to take him to the coun try. Every inch of the way to depot was rigorly contested by the unwilling dog. It is supposed that Buster first made his appearance on the cam pus about 1907, but no on?, really knows when he became a factor in the life of this campus. At least eight classes have graduated from the University during his stay here and to each class he has become a pleasant memory. Twice he has been honored with his portrait in the Yackety-Yack, and hundreds of individuals have entered his picture in their mem ory books. He loved to mingle with the crowds at the post office, at chapel, on the sidelines, around the well. At every mass meeting- he was present. At every football and baseball game his cheering voice was heard whether Carolina was winner or loser only his hair was yellow. Buster was an institution bu this cam pus. A movement is on foot to peti tion the owner to return him cither as a gift or as a purchase The student body feels that the old faithful Buster belongs to the campus by ties that supersede the mere claims of personal own ership. upon later- Since nts inauguration three years ago by the literary soci ties and the Bureau of Extention of the University, the High School Debating Union has met with splendid success. Three comprehensive State-wide de bates have been held and schools and communities alike have been benefited by them. Last spring the State-wide contest was parti cipated in by 250 schools and 1000 student debaters, and it is a safe estimate that fully 50,000 people from first to last heard the dis cussions over the State on the question of subsidies for the mer chant marijne. The committee hopes that this year every school of secondary nature in the State will enroll in the Union for the, discussion of the question of the enlargement of the United States Navy.
