C, Tuesday, March 7, 1922 No. 38 BASKETBALL SEASON WILL CLOSE TONIGHT WHEN CAROLINA MEETS TRINITY ON THE METHODIST COURT Southern Champions Will Be Seen in Action For Last Time Tonight. SEASON MOST SUCCESSFUL : Team Captured State Honor and Then Closes Season Brilliantly Winning in Atlanta. The basketball season is almost over. One more game and the cur tain rings down on what has been the most successful basketball season Carolina has ever had. The Southern championship comes to Carolina with the return of the team from Atlanta, and the state championship is an un disputed honor. The Trinity game tonight is the last fading glimpse Carolina will have of her wonderful team in action. The football season was good, but the basketball season, with the splendid climax in Atlanta, ends in a burst of glory surpassing even the Thanksgiv ing game with Virginia. The team started off with South Carolina and easily disposed of the Sandlappers in a one-sided score, us ing the second team in part of the game. Then came Wofford who went down just as the other South Caro lina team did. Wake Forest, Trinity and State ame into regular order and bowed before the throne of superior ity. Elon came along with the rest and made a more than a bow; she was prostrate before her master. Elon and Trinity are the only teams in the state figuring in the 'State championship that have not been de feated twice. Trinity will have her chance tonight, and Elon doesn't want any more. Davidson has had a nice season, but doesn't figure materially in the state honors, having been de feated several times during the sea- CAROLINA BREAKS EVEN F All Three Collegea Win and Lose In Annual Triangular Debate - Negative Teams Win. (Continued on Page Four.) VACCINATIONS IN VOGUE Rumora of Small Pox Tax Infirmary Force and Result in Many Sore Arms. Wild rumor of pestilence, famine, smallpox and quarantine, after a two weeks siesta, have sprung up on the campus again, and everybody is in a swivet. Boys are flocking to the in firmary where they are being pricked by the dreaded needle, where they smell and soporic incense ether where they stand in line with up rolled sleeve, waiting for their turn to be vulcanized. Dr. Nathan, the big, good natured man that does the work, stands there in the waiting room dripping with perspiration, emitting great puffs of exhaustion at times, and jokes the boys while fixing them up. The line forms to the right. You advance in turn. Then you meet the hostess. In two minutes you are waiting in the hall for the spot to dry. Then you have two things to worry about: it either takes or it doesn't. If it does not take, then there is nothing to worry about. If it does, you have two things to worry about: whether it gets very sore, or whether it doesn't. If it doesn't you have nothing to worry about. If it gets sore, you ' have two things to worry about: whether you get it hurt or whether it don't. If it doesn't get hurt, then you are all right. At any rate, you don't have the smallpox as a proud possession. Some take it all right. It goes to the head of others. One or two heard the song of the mocking bird in early spring. One said he floated through the whole thing. He was deathly pale. There is still some smallpox in Chapel Hill, but as yet there is no epidemic in Chapel Hill, and if the vaccinations continue in proportion to the number of the past few days, there will be no epidemic. There have been standing lines in the hall of the infirmary for the last few nights, and the numbers have been so late that the points gave out Wednesday night, and more had to be ordered from Ra leigh. The drug stores sold out. The good work ceased for a time Thurs day night when the supply of points had given out, but more came in, and the work is still going on. Influenza on the down grade. There were only five cases Friday. The result of the triangular inter collegiate debating contests, which took place Saturday night in Chapel Hill, Lexington and Baltimore, was an even break for each of the three contesting universities. The query, "Resolved, that the United States should own and operate the coal mines," proved to be a Jonah for its supporters and the negative team won in every case. Carolina's winning team, composed of V. V. Young and T. L. Warren, defeated Johns Hopkins' affirmative in Lexington, Va. In Baltimore, the other Carolina team, made up of W-. E. Horner and C. L. Moore, went down in defeat before Washington and Lee's negative, while the latter university's affirmative team was los ing to Johns Hopkins at Chapel Hill. A. D. Emmart and A. Diamon made up the Johns Hopkins team which defeated the W. & L. pair, S. A. Glickstein and E. W. Toindex ter. The contest took place in Ger rard Hall and was as well attended as iuch events usually are. F. A. Gris sette, president of the debate coun cil, presided. The judges were H. H. Williams, IL W. Odum, L. R. Wilson, F. F. Bradshaw, and G. McF. Mekie. The affirmative made a splendid effort to overcome the disadvantage under which the rather one-sided (Continued on Page Four.) CONTEST TO GENERALS Team Tired Out by Grueling Atlanta Meet and Long Trip Loses 36 to 39. TAR HEEL ALL STATE BASKETBALL TEAM. First Team Position Second Team Green Simpson (Trinity) Forward Perry , Crawford (Davidson) Forward Carmichael, C Mauze (Davidson) Center McDonald Crute (Trinity) Guard Carmichael, B., 4 . Frazier (Guilford) Guard (By R. S. Pickens) Tired out by the long journey from Atlanta after a week of gruel ing contests in the Southern Inter ?ollegiate basketball tournament, the Carolina quint, champions of the South, lost a hard fought game to Washington and Lee last Thursday night on the Raleigh Auditorium floor by the score of 36 to 39. The Carolina five started with a flash of the form that had carried them through to the championship at Atlanta, and before the Generals had gotten their bearings were away and in the lead with three cleanly executed field goals; but the team was unable to maintain the pace, and finished the first half with but a slight lead. In the second half Washington and Lee ferged ahead to a substantial lead. It way at this juncture that the blue and white staged the real feature of the game in their game some-back which threatened to tie the score, b .t the time keeper's whistle ended all hope just as the rally was at its height. Neither Perry nor Green were able to play the e .tire game, since both were suffering with injuries sustain ed in the Atlanta contests. Perry and C. Carmichael accounted for majority of C' rolina's points. The loss of this game has no ef fect on the status of the University as Southern champions, as Washing ton and Lee withdrew from the At lanta tournament and thus rendered herself ineligible for the honor, be sides she has been beaten by Vir ginia, who by refusing to play a sec ond game with Carolina practically concedes a Tar Heel victory. Dr. Truett Will Speak Here Saturday Morning. Dr. George W. Truett, one of the nation's greatest preachers, who has been conducting a big meeting at Raleigh, has been secured to preach a sermon to the University students in Memorial Hall Saturday morning at 11:15. Dr. Truett had not intended to dtop anywhere in the state except Raleigh 'on his trip through here, and it was only by a special arrange ment that he was, induced by Rev. E. L. Baskin Friday to come to Chapel Hill. Dr. Truett always draws great crowds wherever he goes, and it is considered a special privilege to hear him. Heretofore Carolina has been ex ceedingly modest about her athletic prowess. Now is the time for cast ing aside of this false modesty and in doing so we are following the dic tates of our own conscience and pick ing as an all-state team, the Uni versity of North Carolina basketball quint. This, to some, will be only a con ceited exhibition of school spirit, but from a cold blooded, non-partisan standpoint, Carolina has what we consider the best all round basket ball team to be found in the state, and in picking the number of men from Carolina we have, there is no reflection on any other team in the state. Other schools have good men, exceptionally good men, Trinity has them, State has them, Wake Forest, Davidson and Guilford have them, but where can we find forwards to equal Green and Perry, unless we put the two Carmichael brothers in at forward, and not use them at cen ter and guard, which would be un necessary at least. C. Carmichael is the best basket ball player in the state, and in the opinion of many the best in the 1 South. He is the pivot of the all-J state team, and will shoot the fouls, j Mauze, of Davidson, is selected for ! flio BannnA ctrinir foniaf Vtpnnnar t others think he is good, we don't know for sure. Green and Perry for forwards. They are the leading scorers of the state when compared to forwards on other teams. Both are fast, both fight hard and both are excellent passers. No more could be desired. Simpson, of Trinity, one of the Methodist sensations, is given a berth on the second team. He may rate one on the first team, but for some reason we can't see that he is any better than Perry and Green, and he hasn't worked for a season with Carmichael and McDonald. Crawford is shifted from guard to forward because the Davidson man is one of the best shots in the state, and deserves a place on the team. ; McDonald and Billy Carmichael go on the first team as guards, because they are the guards on the Southern Champions team, and rate any all state team that can be picked. Both men are regular forwards, and up until this year have played that po sition. They are good shots as a re sult; McDonald is a sensation on the floor, ard the hardest man in the world to get away from at guard and hard) to cover when shooting. Billy Carmichael is a veteran tosser, and is as good as any man in the state for his position. In fact we don't know of a guard anywhere that can shoot like he can, and we know of no man: who knows more basketball. Crute, of Trinity, and Frazier, of Guilford, take the guard positions on the second team, because both are good shots; Crute being one of the most dangerous men from the mid dle of the court in the state. Fra zier is said to be one of the best shots in the state and is responsible for the wonderful showing made by the Guilford team during the past season. Lots of folks will be sore about this whole thing. For that we are truly sorry, but can only point to the individual records of each man men tioned, and say, "Can any better be shown?" The job is a thankless one any'.Aw,, and -only what we think is true have we stated. The all-state team cannot be spoken of this year as a "mythical team." It has whaled every team in the state by large scores, and literally licked the fire out of the most of them twice. . ALL ARRANGEMENTS ARE FINISHED FIRST STATE INDOOR TRACK MEET TO BE HELD IN BULL CITY FRIDAY FOLK-PLAYS TO BE PRESENTED THIS WEEK Playmakers to Make Second Ap pearance of Year on Friday and Saturday Evenings. Coach Bob Fetzer Believes Meet Will Be Great Success. CAROLINA IN GOOD SHAPE Big Free Dance to Be Given After Meet Over Fifty Men on Tar Heel Square, The eighth series of original Car olina Folk-Plays produced by The Carolfcia Playmakers will , be pre- sente din the Play-House on Friday and Saturday evenings of this week. This is the second series for the present college year. The plays are "The Lord's Will," a tragedy by Paul Green, "Dogwood Bushes," a comedy of country life by Wilbur Stout, and "Blackbeard, Pirate of the Carolina Coast," a melodrama by Paul Green written in collabor ation with Elizabeth A. Lay. All these plays were written by graduate students who have been working under Professor Koch, di rector of The Playmakers, for two or three years, and Chapel Hill au diences know well the character of their work. Paul Green has given more plays to the dramatic organi zation than any other member of the group, perhaps. Wilbur Stout made a name for himself and his work when "In Dixon's Kitchen" took Chapel Hill by storm last year. This play has been presented 20 times, both in the local Play-House and out in the state. His new play is written in the same charming vein, and promises an equally good (Continued on Page Two.) SEBALL CANDIDATES TO START IN T Arrangements for a free dance to be given to visitors and track men immediately after the big indoor meet next Friday have been com pleted. A Durham orchestra and the Tar Baby Five will be secured to furnish the music if possible. This is one of the many induce ments to attend the event. By working his men out daily on the board track Coach Fetzer has whipped them into the best condi tion possible, and their chances for winning the meet are good. He is to carry over fifty men to the meet and this will make it possible for him to enter a large number of men in each event. Mr. Clark, secretary of the meet, announced that he had 200 men entered in tiie meet at present and that probably 400 would be entered by Friday night. Trinity will have a team of 35, State College and Wake Forest will send teams of 25 or more. To accommodate the immense crowd that is expected to attend the event, the bleachers which were used at the Carolina-Virginia foot ball game have been carried to Dur ham, and with these, besides those furnished by other schools that should be little difficulty experienc ed in seating the crowd. Quoting the Durham Herald: "One of the features of the meet will be the presence of J. W. Mul- All But Three of Last Year's Varsity- to Report Freshman Coach. Not Yet Named. (Continued on Page Four.)

Dr. Archibald Henderson, head of the mathematics department of the University, has just issued a pamphlet on "Numbers and the Fundamental Laws of Algebra." In the pamphlet Dr. Henderson answers in concise form the questions that are either ignored or usually left unanswered when raised in the early work in mathematics. The purpose is to find "theration- (Continued on Page Two.) If the weather remains favorable the baseball team will be called into action this week by Coach Fetzer. There will be wealth of material out for the team this year, includ ing last year's freshman squad and the entire varsity team of last year with three exceptions.

Shirley, McGhee, McDonald, Mor ris, Wilson, Bryson, McLean, Sweet man and others of last year's team are expected out at the first call with a number of good men from last year's freshman team. Several light practices under Captain Llew ellyn hnve been held when the weather permitted ,and the men have shown up well. Freshman baseball will start the same day possibly that the varsity goes out.

(By Mather J. Walterly.) What does it cost the faculty , to give these "mahogany finishes" to the "pine sap shingles" that are caus ing so much disturbance here at the University of North Carolina. The recent article in the Tar Heel on the cost of this "finish," from the stu dents' point of view, has prompted me to make a little investigation of my own along the lines of the mas terly piece of research (I suppose that is what the Home Economics Department will call it) so ably pre sented by Professor Matherly. In order that my results might show a perfect correlation to those of Matherly, I made a preliminary study of the situation which dis closed that the learned professor's figures were based on an analysis of the budgets of 2 per cent of the to tal student body. That seemed to me to most fortunate (and happy, in the lingo of the learned) for it re duced my problem of determining the, average faculty budget to a mere matter of analyzing my own budget with that of another faculty member selected perfectly at random. You see, there are just about 100 mem bers of the faculty, not all of which (or whom, if you prefer) go to fac ulty meeting, for various reasons; 2 per cent of .100 is just two faculty folk and so it seemed to me quite adequate and appropriate to judge the whole faculty of 100 souls by the economic condition of myself and one other. I might say I ought to say, at the outset that I, of course, wanted to prove that either the average fac ulty salary is too low, or else that the average faculty member lives beyond his income. It is therefore with per fect equinamity that I say that I se lected the other member of my "bud get commission" from the group of Kenan professors amongst whom I am NOT one of which, but in whose midst I usually find myself (sic!) at faculty meetings. This particular Kenan professor is one of the com-' mon herd that draws a paltry $5,000 a year for the privilege of allowing a few graduate students to listen to the latest results of the research with (Continued on Page Two.)
