GAME CLOSE THROUGHOUT
Tandy Stars, Making 10
Points. Numerous Fouls
Slowed Game
Last Monday night in Rich
mond the Orange and tin- Blue
of Virginia defeated Carolina by
a margin of only three goals... At
the end of the first half the score
stood 1 5-15. but in the last half
the Virginians spurted ahead and
vn ri i-24. From beginning.-' to
end the crowd ; was whole-heartedly
in favor vof Carolina, 'and the
P.lue and White sliots received
heavy applause. , .
Carolina got the jump on Vir
ia at the start, and for a while
it looked as if the game would
result in a Tar Heel victory. The
Charlottesville aggregation soon
found thi-ir shouting eyes, and by
the end of the first half the score
stood 15-15. -
In the second half Virginia
started with a strong offence, and
he fore the Carolinians could stop
the assault,"' their opponents had
piled up a good margin. ' How.
ever, with but three minutes to
plav, and ; Virginia leading by
four points, the Hlue and White
began to locate the basket. At
this point Tandy Win) had been
..playing a star game, disqualified
himself by.-; making his fourth
personal foul.
At the beginning of the game
Carolina got the tip-off and in
less than one minute Meb Long
had caged the ball. In a few
minutes Tandy put another one
through. The -Virginians play
ed hard and gradually crept up
until they had tied the score by
the end of the half.
Numerous fouls during the
whole of the game made it a lit
tle slow. Fourteen foul goals
were shot during the game
Long getting six and Strickland,
for Virginia, eight. During the
whoU performance the players
seemed unable to locate the bas
kets, except from near the middle
of the floor.
Strickland at center for Virgin
ia was the star of the game.Tan
ly played a brilliant game also.
The Carolina center got 5 of his
team's ) field goals. Strickland

TANDY AND COOPER, Agents
SECRETARY HcADOO
HERE COMMENCEMENT
To Deliver Address. A Sketch
Of His Career
Secretary William Gibbs Mc
Adoo has accepted the' invita
tion tendered him by the Uni
versity to speak at commence
ment Next June the Secretary
of the Treasury, together with
Mrs. McAdoo and the McAdoo
baby, who has never been to
North Carolina before, will ar
rive in Chapel Hill. Last com
mencement Mr. McAdoo was to
have spoken, but an unforeseen
meeting of the International Fi
nance Conference in the West
prevented his coming to North
Carolina at that time.
J Mr. McAdoo's career has been
such that he will ; necessarily
have in, his address much to in
terest young men. He was born
near Marietta, Georgia, October
31. 1S63. His father, was' an offi
cer in the Mexican War, a Teri
nesee judge, Confederate soldier,
and in his last years a professor
in the University of Tennessee.
After leaving the University,
the - Secretary-to-be 'began, prac
ticing law in Chattanooga, where
becoming interested in transpor
tation problems, he reconstruct
ed the local transit system.
In 1892 Mr. McAdoo moved to
New York In 1902 he under
took the problem of constructing
tunnels under the Hudson, which
now unite New and Jersey City.
The project: was hazardous; it
required audacity and capital;
but the work was accomplished.
New York is indebted to Mr.
McAdoo for other of her indis
pensible transit systems, as well.
The "triborough" route, he was
largely instrumental in securing.
"Mr. McAdoo," says the Re
view of Reviews, "is a man who
thinks in large terms and from
the public standpoint. Unlike
some men of similarly bold imag
ination, he has an amazing gift
for details, a tireless industry,
and a dauntless courage. He is
of the stuff that statesmen are
made of, and he is in every way
fitted for high political place. . .
Mr. McAdoo's way of winning
public favor is to render public
service He has always been
a progressive in his conviction,
and while an active Democrat,
he has never had any of that
narrowness or mere partisan
ship." Mr. H. G. Baity was initiated
in the Amphoterothen Wednes
day night.
1916 ANNUAL TO PRESS
Comes Out About May 1st.
Has Good Deal Humor I
and Poetry
Work on the 1916 Yackety
Yack is n?aring- completion, and
the editors and business mana-
will soon send their last '
copy and pictures to the press.
The engraving is being done
by the Electric Cjty Engraving
Company, of Buffalo, N. Y , and
the contract for printing and
binding has been given the Ed
wards Brough ton Company, of
Raleigh. More attention is being
given to the artistic part of the
Yackety Yack this, year than
formed-. Among the artists who
have contributed to this year's
annual are: Russel Henderson,
formerly with the Charlotte Ob
server; Jaques Busbee,of Raleigh;
E. J. Lilly, of Fayetteville, to
gether with several students. It
is proposed to introduce each de
partment of the book with a col
or plate.
There Will be several serious
articles dealing with college af
fairs, as well as fifteen pages de
voted to humor. Miss Eleanor
Watson, R. B. House, M. Round
tree, and A. M. Lindau have con
tributed some excellent poetry.
The county and high school
clubs have again come into their
own. The new annual will con
tain pictures of all those who
have expressed a desire to appear.
There are, as usual, numerous
photographs of local scenes.
The seniors will be written up
as before, and the juniors will
have individual pictures again
this year. The departments of
law, medicine, and pharmacy will
not he changed. The book will
in all probability be ready for
distribution about May 1.
EIGHT MARRIED STUDENTS
Carolina Now Boasts That Many
Since Two Post-Exam Weddings
Two more students have taken
the-fatal leap that automatically
makes them members of the local
students' Benedict colony. They
are Mr. Francis H. Cooper, of
Washington, N. C, who was
married to Miss EulaTI. Wallace
of the same place, on February 1,
at Richmond, Va., and Mr. Allen
T. Castelloe s of Aulander, who
was, on the same date, married
to Miss Sallie May Ilollowell at
her home in Aulander. Messrs.
Cooper and Castelloe will gradu-
j ate in June. Counting "Doggie"
jTrenchard, these make eight
students that have already select
ed their "help meets for life.
FEBRUARY MAGAZINE
APPEARS ON CAMPUS
Is a Little Over-serious. Has
History of Frats Here
The most important article in
the February number of the Uni
versity Magazine, which has
just been published, is a "Sketch
of the Fraternities of the Uni
versity of North Carolina (1851
1915.)" by Herschel V. Johnson.
'16.. This article is not only val
uable historcallyi but affords
very interesting reading as well.
The writer has thoroughly, ac
quainted himself with his sub
ject and has thrown light upon
an important' feature of the Uni-
veisity Lite. furthermore, it
suggests that more might- be
done in studying certain other
definite aspects of university
life. Such studies are worth
more than trivial . and meaning
less short stories.
Two poems are included in the
present number one by Mr. Lin
dau, the other by Mr. Roundtree,
who had such ; a good poem in
the last number of the magazine.
"Broadway through, the Provin
cial Eyes of a DownhomerVaff ords
a refreshing bit of gossip from
an alumnus. It should encourage
other alumni contributions. Mr,
Kato's article on "International
Peace and Mutual Understand
ing" is timely and logical as
well. '
A live exchange department
would add much to the maga
zine, provided it is carefully
edited. One feels that, a few
short, snappy articles, humorous
or otherwise, might enliven the
magazine a little. It is a little
inclined, perhaps, to over-seriousness.

BASEBALL PROSPECTS
Nearly a Hundred Men
Warming-Up on
Class Field
EIGHT LETTER MEN BACK
Regular Practice Staits Next
Week. Team Sure to be
Strong on Fielding
The baseball prospects for the
coming season are very bright.
Practice started last week and at
present there are about 90 men on
the squad. j Of these 00 there are
16 men from last year's squad, in
cluding 8 letter men. The letter
men are Capti' Patterson, ..Currie,
Williams, Hart, Hardison, Lewis.
Bailey, , and Zollicoffer. The
practice so far has consisted of
batting practice and some fuugo
hitting to the ... out field . In field
practice will start next week, and
"canning" will begin as soon as
Coach "Chick" Doak has had a
chance to "look 'em over."
The pitching staff should be es
pecially strong this year. Wil
liams and Currie, both letter men,
should go well this year. Currie
showed exceptionally good form
during the latter part of last sea
son, and pitched splendid ball last
summer. Cuthrell, who was in
eligible last year, will be on the
job this year. lie pitched fint:
ball for Wake Forest two yean
ago. Johnson will report as soor
as the basket ball season is over.
Kinlaw and Coleman, from last
year's squad, Plyler who pitched
star ball for the Juniors last year.
Ash Hill, and two Freshmen,
Watkins and Powell, fill out a
pitching staff that should com
pare favorably with any in the
South.
For catchers we have Hart, a
letter man, Angel, who played in
the Washington City League last
year, Bennett from Mercersburg
Academy, Love and Roberts.
Jim Hardison, Tandy, and Meb
Long will be out for first base.
At second base we have Capt.
Patterson, Massey from Elou Col
lege, a good utility man, and
Jenuette from lest year's squad.
Sheek, Be v. Royster, Brdiges
and Lewellyu will be out for short.
Sheek is an exceptionally yood
baseruuner and fielder and will
probably be first choice at this
position. .-.
Mack Lewis and Baker are out
