the week. The schedule itself
still lacks two or three games of
being completed. Two weeks is
the time set by the graduate

of a completed schedule.

means, of course, that there will

Carolina will face on the gridiron
next year are: Virginia, Georgia
Tech., Wake Forest, V. M. I.,

Dr. W. M. Dey was in Norfolk,
Va. visiting relatives.

speakers of the Economical Di
vision. Dr. J. G. deR. Hamilton
attended a meeting of the Ameri

sociation. Dr. Vernon , Howell,
Mr. C. T. Woolen, who was also

DR. HERTY HONORED
Re-elected President of The Ameri
can Chemical Society
Dr. C. H. Herty has been re
elected President of the Ameri
can L-hemical bociety. This is
an unusual honor as it is not the
custom of the society to reelect
its president. During the past
year Dr. Herty has been working
for closer cooperation between
the universities and the indus
tries, and has urged the impor
tance of national self-contained-
ness in chemical industries.
For several years the Mason and
Dixon line has seemed to be im
passable, and Carolina has been
forced to content itself with a
northern trip to Washington, D.
C, with Georgetown as its opponent.-
