December u, 1915 no. is RALEIGH WINS EASTERN FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP Defeats Wilmington Highs 9 to 0. Silverman Stars Wilmington lost the high school football championship of the eastern part of the State here Saturday when Raleigh, after a hard fight, secured a drop kick and a touchdown in the last two quarters, making the final score 9 to 0. Despite the chilling hail which ' fell from the first to the fourth quarter, both teams fought fiercely, and kept the gridiron hot with brilliant runs and long pass es. Ikey Silverman," of Wilming ton, was the star of the game, showing extraordinary speed and pluckiness. Wilmington's fight ing spirit was admirable to the end. Even in the last few min. utes Raleigh was forced to fight desperately to avert a possible tie, In the fourth quarter Raleigh made her only touchdown. Fau eette, Raleigh's fullback, re ceived Wilmington's punt on his 30-yard line and. by a brilliant 65-yard run through the whole Wilmington team, brought the ball within five yards of Wil mington's goal posts. Champion went over the line for a touch down on the first attempt Mills failed to kick goal. Mi'ls, Champion, Faueette and Terrell for Raleigh did stellar work also. Raleigh Wilmington Spruell...- ..

Rights, class of 1913 of the University of North Carolina, had been awarded res pectively a Butterick Scholarship valued at three hundred dollars, and a Hopkins Share, valued at three hundred and fifty dollars. The letter of announcement Continued on fourth Page. i Y. M. C. A. HAS GREAT YEAR Institution is of Real Helo and A number of the various act ivities of the Y. M. C. A. have been presented from time to time in these columns and elsewhere, but in the following accounts practically all its departments are described that the question may be answered "What does the Y. M.'C. A. do with the $2 fee? and "What does the Y- M. C. A. stand for ?" Weekly Meetings The desire of the Y. M. C. A. is to stand for the highest ideals of .'..Christian', manhood and the larger ideas of service; to help keep the standards high, to join in every good movement, to en courage and participate in the "Carolina" spirit; to link the sur rounding community to the Uni versity and its members with ties of friendship formed thru acts of service; to stand for the larger brotherhood which knows no class distinctions; to be a big brother to the new man a true friend of the upper class man; to be an outlet for the ambitions of those who would serve; to encourage others to enlist their talents in this great idea. To this end meetings are held weekly for the discussion of these ideas by the faculty, students or outsiders. At such meetings every student is welcomed and at student meet ings, free to express his opinions. The Y. M. C. A. takes pride in the fact that its offers of service and cooperation with the various churches, church organizations and community organizations are so gladly accepted. It is glad, too, to ally itself with the Stu dent Volunteer Movement and Ministerial Band. Bible Study Department Bible Study at the University of North Carolina has always been an important part of the campus life, but never has it gripped the students as a whole in the way it should. This fact has been due to many causes, chief among them being the lack of sufficient teachers, the inadaptability of the Bible Study books to the type of mind we find on our campus, and .to the real problems of student life that con nects them with the Bible. The enrollment in Bible Study has now passed the - three hundred mark, while the attendance from Sunday to Sunday runs between 120 and 160 in the 22 organized groups that meet every Sunday at 12:30. All the while, however, Bible Study at Carolina has stood as an outpost of the spirit here, has stood out as an ever ready means of promoting special interest in higher things, as a rallying point for the ideals of the campus. And it has performed its mission well. It does not attempt to take the place of the Sunday School in lampus and community teaching: merely the. historical narrative in the Scriptures, but attempts to interpjetjstudeut life in the light of the-Old Testa ment and of Christian ideals, to lay down the facts on which a man may build a sure: foundation, and to emphasize the principles which guarantee a pure life and highest service to God and one's fellowman. Directories One of the, largest; services the Y. M. C. A. performs for the campus community is the publi cation of the Student Directory which is of great usefulness to the students and townspeople as well. The Handbook published mainly for the new ;men is also presented by the Y.;M. C. A. to help the new men learn some thing of the University spirit, campus, customs and ideals. Self-Help Bureau. This same spirit pfhelpfulness is "demonstrated "on'ltn'e" campus by the operation of a bureau where townspeople can find stu dents to do work for them and the students who; desire it can find work to pay part of their ex penses. This 'bureau is in con stant operation placing some job every day. The Lost and Found Bureau follows right along this path in being a depository for all the things the honest find and a place of rejoicing to those who have been careless. Numbers of things of value are returned to students. That the Y. M. C. A. building - ' .. Y. M. C. A.

S 120 65 Bills Due 75 00 Balance S 45 65 OF SERVICE Inspiration to is a large factor on the campus is shown in the fact that tue reading room is never vacaut ex cept at meal times and after mid night. The game table is in constant use. Nor is their hard ly a time that the meeting rooms on the second floor are not occu pied for studying, for some coun ty club meeting, some committee conference, or by the Tar Heel board which has its office in. the building, or the Magazine which has a room devoted to its files and business office. The Y. M. C. A. building is the meeting ground of the campus, the con vention hall of classes, clubs, and organizations. Freshman Continuation Committee The Freshman Continuation Committee, not yet passed into its Sophtnoric stage, is only be ginning to work out for itself a great student idea. It is in short to make the connection between High.jSchool . compulsion and University freedom; to pilot High School boys into the paths that lead to educated manhood. The process begins in the sum mer with a personal letter to each boy who is known to be planning to enter the University in the Fall. At least 35 mem bers of this committee wrote let ters this summer, with many responses that made friendships before introductions. The pilot ing began at the University sta tion where the committee met the new students and welcomed them to the campus. A meeting was arranged for between these committeemen and every new student in groups of 8 to 10. The new men were told that they could find in their particular committeeman a friend who would be glad to help, advise and assist them in any and every way possible. These 35 men were to see to it that the High School boys should now become University men, taking part in every activity on the campus for which they had any adaptability; to see that his group was connected up with campus life and college activities. To develop an efficient system so far reaching takes time. It is having fine results already that justify its existence and de mand its continuance. Social Life With regard to interest in the new men at the beginning of the year the Y. M. C. A. conducted "College Night" at which stu dent speakers explained the work of the Literary Societies, the Publications, Athlethics, Musical Clubs, Dramatics and other forms of campus life. After this speak ing the hew men were invited to meet the faculty, young ladies of the town, and upper classmen at CAROLINA QUINT LOSES TO DURHAM Y. M. C.A.

'to give ' the stu dents a higher type of attraction than the old Star Courses gave and so the "The Servant in The House" was brought here on a $250 guarantee, fulfilling well its purpose of presenting a higher ideal to the student body. It was its pleasure and privi lege, too, to . have secured Mr. William Jennings Bryan to ad dress the student body and Uni versity communit'. Mr. Bryan was so generous as to make the two addresses complimentary, Negro Night Scnool For the first three years the Y. M. C. A., as a part of its social service program, has been con ducting a night school for negro boys. Difficulties were encoun . tered in establishing this school, in enlisting the interest of the negro boys and creating among them a desire to learn more." For the last two years, however, the attendance has been continually on the increase and genuine in terest has been manifested. The school is conducted live nights in the week, every Mon day night, however, being turned over to debating. This debate night has as a usual thing been successful. A corps of twelve teachers composes the teaching staff. The enrollment has climb ed from 45 last year to 65 this year, the attendance remaining proportionate. Nights are sometimes given over to lectures and special enter tainment in line with the general purpose of the school. Through it all the spirit of unselfish ser vice on the part of the students Continued on Fourth Page.
