A GENTLE REMONSTRANCE
During the course of the Wake
Forest game here Saturday, part
of the crowd in the Carolina Stad
ium did two things unworthy of
any group of men anywhere.
It laughed and jeered at a mem
ber of Carolina's team who was
warming up on the side lines pre
paratory to entering the game. It
addressed several remarks, per
sonal and calculated to rattle, to
the Wake Forest team.
The first act was not only a dis
couragement to our player and our
whole team, but it was also an in
sult to Carolina. The persons
wlio did the laughing and jeering,
of course, "didn't mean anything
by it" Nevertheless, the effect
was the same. There is a certain
class of men in every community
who instead of doing any useful
work "just sit around" and ridi
cule those who are doing things
far better than they are doing
them themselves, who are striving
by hard work to better themselves
and help tbeir community, town.
family or team. The former class
of persons, unconsciously, does
more real harm to a community
than all of its liars and hypocrites,
foot-pads and thieves. The liars
and hypocrites merely entangle the
ideas of a community ; the foot
pads merely assault, ; sometimes
maim,-its individuals; the thieves
merely secure a different distribu
tion of community wealth. But
the men who thoughtlessly laugh
and jeer at the individual who is
unselfishly doing his best, they kill
the community spirit of aspiration
and service.
The hooting at the Wake Forest
team was an insult to fair play
and good sportsmanship.
We know, of course, that the
greater ' part of the men in the
Stadium were gentlemen oneugh
to conduct themselves as such un
der any ordinary provocation and
that those who did the jeering at
one member of the Carolina team
and the hooting at several of the
Wake Forest team were only a
sparse and thoughtless minority.
But that loud-mouthed minority is
enough to make even heaven look
like the place whither the broad
road paved with good intentions
leads.
siming for courts.
In the last three or four years
the men who have played tennis
have wasted almost as much time
waiting for courts as they have
waiting for the mail. Think of

The new set of tennis regula

it is a much needed one. It is the
duty of every tennis player here
to do his best to help them to work
with efficiency and without f ric

A Carolina Looking Glass
Last week, Ladies and Gentle
men, we announced to you the sub
ject for this week's mirror, i. e.,
"what do you expect to get at
Carolina?" and here are the re
plies :
"I expect to get poise and pow
er in the association with other
people," said one sober student,
"not only with men that are my
equals working toward the same
goal, but with minds that are su
perior to mine and able to teach
me by common contact. Associa
tion, in, my mind is the greatest
thing in college."
-'What I expect to get at Caro
lina," said another, "is a degree
(if nothing happens). Of course
it may, mean a few 'fours' before
I can do it, but Dad is looking for
the time when I can go back home.
B. A."
"I expect to get general train
ing while I am here," was the
reply of our theorizing friend. "I
want physical training that I may
have a good body to dwell in men
tal training that I may earn a
good living ; and practical train
ing that I may be read v for the
battle of life." , "
"Of course I expect to learn
something" there was a twinkle
in his eye as he said it "but I think
a fellow ought to have a good time
along with it. You are not young
but once and if you don't take time
by the forelock I don't see as
thert's any chance."
"1 expect i my training at Caro
lina to educate my original
(sounds like he's had psychology)
nature so that I may live rightly
in a civilized world." One fellow
generalized: "When a man is
born, he is no more than a mere
animal and it, is up to the Uni
versity to so modify and redirect
those instincts and emotions that
he may become a highly civilized
human."
HONORS AT GRADUATION
TENNIS REGULATIONS
Whoever has gratted a 10 :40
class and sprinted down to the ten
nis courts in hopes of waitinc: there
in the sun till 12:30 in order to
sign up for one for four and then
found that there were a score of
men ahead of him:
Whoever has gulped down a ten
second dinner, at the risk of anni
hilating, his digestion,; and has
done a five-hundred yard dash to
the promised land behind the gym
only to hear the fateful words,
"too late," shouted by the crowd
The editorial on the subject of
Honors which appeared in the Tar
Heel last week contained several
inaccuracies, so that it seems de
sirable to make a brief statement
concerning the conditions under
wmcii siuuents may oecome candi
dates for degrees with distinction.
In order to understand these pro
visions, it is necessary to remem
ber that these two new distinc
tions, "Honors" and "Highest
Honors," are not to be won on the
basis of excellent grades, but that
the plan involves a wholly different
point ot view. Ihis point of view
may be briefly described as the
transfer of emphasis from the col
lege courses as units complete in
themselves to a field of learning
which is to be studied only in part
through formal courses. Thus,
one studies History as a great de
partment of learning, not as a
collection of unrelated courses :
one studies literature as another
great department of learning, not
merely as a collection of extracts
from a considerable number of
masterpieces written by Virgil,
Moliere, Shakespere, Goethe, and
others. The committee does not,
of course, expect that an under
graduate, however gifted, will be
able to annex all learning, even all
learning as represented in one of
its departments, as a province that
has been mastered by the time the
bachelor's degree is secured, but it
does expect him to gain some con
ception of the boundaries of the
province, and of the method to be
used in its conquest. All this in
volves a very clear view of the re
lation of courses to each other. As
aids in the attainment of these ob
jects, certain provisions have been
agreed upon, some of which may
be stated in condensed form as fol
lows: .;
1. The plan of study for the
last two years of the college course
must be carefully mapped out in
advance, and must have the appro
val of the department chosen as a
major and of the committee hav
ing" in charge the administration of
this plan of study. To this end,
candidates must present to the
committee, early in the Junior
year, a list of the courses to be
studied during the Junior and Se
nior years and also a statement of
the method through which correla
tion of work is to be gained. There
must also be chosen, within this
field, a topic which is to be studied
intensively.
2. The degree with distinction
will not be awarded merely for spe
cialization in a department, since
this would defeat the primary
purpose of the entire plan. The
unit is the; division, such as
Science and .Mathematics, History
and Philosophy, Language and
Literature. Within this division
at least six courses are to be chosen
of which four must lie in one de
partment and the other two in a
closely related subject studied
through another department. These
courses. must be so planned as to
secure, in a part of them, a de
finite correlation. For example,
courses in English, German, and
French Romanticism may be ac
companied by the study of the
i reneh lie volution.
3. Besides such formal pre
scriptions of courses, other distinc
tive means for assisting the student
have been provided. It should be
remembered that the regular
courses, though important, are sub
sidiary to that wide reading and
general culture which the ambiti
ous and capable student seeks in
stead of the accumulation of credit
hours, and which he is aided to
gain through the fortnightly ; con
ferences, such lecture courses as
the new series of studies in com
parative literature, and the final
essay and examination.
4. In estimating the value of a
candidate's work due regard will
be paid to the grades attained by
him in his regular college courses,
but the grades are of secondary im
portance. The extent of a man's
reading, the maturity of his
thought, and his ability to use his
knowledge effectively, are regard
ed bv the committee as matters of
greater moment than the average
of the grades in his series of ex
ami nation books.
The Committee on Degrees with
Distinction is ; composed , of Pro
fessors Daggett, Henderson, and
IT, V. Wilson, for the Division of
Science and Mathematics: of Pro
fessors , Chase, .Hamilton, and
Iiaper, for the Division of Historv
and Philosophy, and ot Professors
Howe, Towles, and Greenlaw, for
the Division of Language and
Literature. Students who are in
terested may apply to any mem
ber of the committee representing
the division in which his major
work is to lie.

Chairman.
CONTENTMENT
Contentment is the art of being
satisfied. It is about the onlv
thing that can give one time to
enjoy life. It varies in form
from a flat on the sixth floor to a
few acres of ground, plenty of
fresh air and several Jersey cows.
