EMMINENT SCIENTIST TO MAKE
SECOND ADDRESS HERE TONIGHT
-HEAR THIS GREAT AUTHORITY
Dr. F. W. Aston to Speak on
Scientific Subject One, of .
Europe's Greatest Men.
UNIVERSITY IS FORTUNATE
Dr. Acton Waa Heard by Large Audi
ence Last Night and Larger 0e
la Expected Tonight.
Dr. F. W. Aston, fellow of the Roy
al Society and one of the greatest
scientists of Europe, will deliver his
second, address in this city tonight
on "Atomic Weights and Isotopes."
Dr. Aston was heard by a large audi
ence last night, and doubtless an even !
. .. i
larger one will turn out tonight to J
hear this great authority. j
No lecturer that has come to
Chapel Hill in many months bears
the distinction that Dr. Aston does.
He is author of many papers on the
structure of the atom and methods
of determining the weights of atoms
by an electrical method. He is as
ciated with Sir Ernest Rutherford at
the Cavendish Laboratory, Cam
bridge, as Fellow of Trinity College.
This university was exceedingly
fortunate to secure the engagements
with Dr. Aston, and this is the only
place in the South that he has spoken.
He came to this country through
the efforts of the Franklin Institute
of Philadelphia, and was brought to
Chapel Hill through the influence of
the scientific professors under the
auspices of the North Carolina chap
ter of Sigma XI, National Scientific :
fraternity. i
PLAN IS LAUNCHED FOR
UNION OF STATE SCHOOLS
School of Public Welfare
Issues Outline of Courses
The school of public welfare has
just issued a bulletin or catalogue
outlining the work offered by that
division of the University. This
school, during the two -years of its
existence,' has 'developed so rapidly
that there are now 35 courses in
sociology and a wide range of other
courses listed in the bulletin.
The plan of study as outlined by
the bulletin is eightfold, the eight di
visions being (1) general social the
ory, (2) the home and family, (3)
the community and association, (4)
the state government and public in
stitutions, (5) the school and educa
tion, (6) industry and work, (7)
methods of organization and admin
istration, and (8) field work.
A plan was launched by Gov
ernor Morrison a few days ago
to consider the practicability
of consolidating the three lead
ing state colleges, the Univers
ity of North Carolina, North
. Carolina 'State College and
North Carolina College for
Women, under a joint control
and management to be known
as the University of North
Carolina. ?
The governor was to have
appointed a commission last
Saturday from each of the in
stitutions for the purpose of in
vestigating and reporting on
the feasibility of such a change,
but Dr. Chase so far has not
learned of such a move being
taken. However, he is expect
ing that this will be done at any
time.
In the newspaper account of
the arrangement, nothing could
be learned as to the purport of
the move or the benefits to be
derived therefrom. The article
did state that if such a consol
idation be effected, this would
place the University of North .
Carolina among some of the
largest universities in this
country.
An agitation for consolida
tion for the past 15 years has
been bobbing up at different
times, and it is therefore
thought that the governor's ob
ject in appointing this commis
sion is to ascertain whether or
not there is any advantage in a
union and if so report the mat
ter to him.
Greensboro Game on April 29 And
Contett Here on Mb? 1.. Char
lottesville Game April 22
The Virginia baseball game at
Greensboro will be played on April
29 and the return game here on May
1. Carolina plays Virginia at Char
lottesville on April 22, and plays
Washington and Lee on April 20 and
21.- These changes in the schedule
were announced from Manager Wool
en's office this week.
Inability to get back from the
northern trip in time for the Wash
ington and Lee game here on May
10, caused the date to be changed
until May 11th, the State College
game with Washington and Lee hav
ing been exchanged by the two in
stutions. With the settlement of the date
of the Virginia game and the other
small details, the baseball schedule
for the year has ben completed. It
looked like a poor year for Carolina
in the earlier part of the season, but
the tireless efforts of Manager Wool
en and student manager of baseball
Griffith have resulted in one of the
best schedules in recent years, and
TRACK MEET POSTPONED
AT N. C. STATE'S BEQUEST
i
Track at West Raleigh Institution
' Not Completed, and Meet is
Postponed Till April 26.
The dual track meet with N. C
State has been postponed, and the
event which would have taken place
tomorrow will come off on April 26.
' Track officials of State College
sent in a request to Coach Bob Fet
zer Saturday morning asking that
the mjeet be postponed because their
track which is now under process of
construction had not been completed
aue to large number oi rams re
cently. It is thought that officials
here are not so disappointed over
the . postponement, since a number
of, the best track men here are in
process of being ruled off on account
of studies and new men will have
to be trained to take their places.
Officials here wanted to bring the
meet to Chapel Hill instead of post
poning it, but State College men
preferred to have it in Raleigh.
Training work for the Trinity
meet which will be held here a week
from tomorrow is going on at a
rapid rate and the team bids well
to make an excellent showing against
the Methodists. Since the javelins
ha' e not yet ar.-rred the team is
the team feels highly elated over thepf';,, inconvenienced somewhat in
matter of games scheduled and the
excellent trips planned.
Arrangements will now go forward
for the necessary special trains and
other things that accompany the Vir
ginia game each year in Greensboro.
A number of dances will be staged in
the city during the stay of the Car
olina men there, and other social
events, such as a reception as N. C.
C. W. will make the week end one
of the features of the spring quarter.
Work Forces Harden to Quit
Track Team; Hits Squad Hard
Pressure exerted by the large
amount of work he is carrying this
quarter has forced Boyd Harden,
Captain of this year's track team, to
to stop going out for track.' In
losing him the team loses one of the
most valuable men out, and they will
find it undoubtably hard to replace
him in the 220 and 440. It is not
known when a new captain will be
elected.

man and Havener being about the
only mien of any proven ability go
ing out for the outfield berths. Red
Johnson, ho. ever, has hit Veil in
practice and seems to be very con
tent in the r ght garden. Al John
son hasn't hit so well in practice,
which may u.ean he will hit fine in
the games, and he seems to handle
most anythii g that comes into the
left field. Sweetman had his center
field position cinched.
The entire team has been maul
ing the ball savagely all the week.
Carolina's greatest asset this year
will be her hitting unless the entire
team takes a slump. There isn't a
man in the lineup who doesn't hit
hard and square every game, and it
will be a mighty good pitcher that
won't feel a little uneasy every time
he faces the Tar Heel lineup.
The infield and outfield have been
practicing steadily all week, the in
field catching it hard one or two
afternoons. Coach Bill certainly
feels it necessary to work the in
field until they look like the last
petal on the last rose of sumimer,
but it has made them work together
like a machine. The combination of
McLean and McDonald on second and
short is hard to beat, and Shirley
looks like a million dollars on first.
Morris is playing steady consistent
baseball in the hot corner, and is
hitting , with the same regularity he
hit last year and during the summer.
Casey Morris is slated to start the
game with Captain Llewllyn, and
will be one of the mainstays of the
Carolina defense.'

Dr.

A plea for greater interest in class
athletics, especially in track, was the
subject of a talk by Coach Bob Fet

chapel period Tuesday.

COMMITTEES APPOINTED
Student Will Vote Their Opinion of
Budget Plan Would Eliminate
Campus Canvassers.
A tentative plan for pooling the
budgets of the Yackety Yack, the
Y. M. C. A., the Tar Heel, the Mag-
azine and the Debate Council wat
submitted by the campus cabinet on
Monday night to a group of twenty
five representative students who met
in Peabody Hall for the purpose of
discussing the measure. Although
some opposition was expressed and
a few changes strongly urged, the
opinion manifested was on the whole
lavorabie.
By unanimous vote of the group
special committees were appointed to
work out the details of the proposi
tion, after which it will be submit
ted to the vote of the -audent bdy.
Ihe conrn'ttee to work out, a.r'ttx
careful invesigation, a fair appor
tionment for each activity is com
posed of L. J. Phipps, chairman, G.
H. Leonard, W. D. Carmichaei, C.
K Massey and W. E. Horner. An
other committee to frame a plan fou
a centralized and efficient adminis
tration of the activities is comiposcd
of R. II. Frazier, chairman, Secre
tary Comer of the 'Y", S. M. Cdthey,
Dr. D. D. Carroll and G. B. Porter.

"The one-year rule preventing ties, mostly in connection with the
first year men playing on varsity I superstitions of the people, but he
teams is a blessing in disguise," said
the coach. "It is up to you men
to take advantage of this rule and
go out for the freshman events with
a view to bettering your chances for
the varsity. We are going to hv.ve
a freshman track team if only two
men besides myself come out. There
is a great future for track in the
South and it is up to you to get in
on tfe ground floor."
Baseball opened up strong here to
day, if there has been no mistake
such as rain or a muddy field, for
Carolina was scheduled to play Fur
man this afternoon in the opener of
the 1922 season,, and when the Tar
Heel went to press, there was noth
ing to indicate that it would rain.
Coach Bill Fetzer has been ex
ceptionally silent about the lineup
for the opening day, but a supposition
is that the infield mentioned last
issue has been used, and Sweetman
with the two Johnsons in the outer
gardens.
It was generally understood that
Captain Llewellyn would start, the
game with Furmjan with Wilson and
Bryson in reserve in case the cap
tain failed to hold the heavy hitting
team, or in case he suffered from
a sore arm or such. The fact that
Llewellyn is the captain gave him
first choice, as both the other men
mentioned have shown all kinds of
stuff.
Furham has finished up a queer
week of baseball in North Carolina,
winning from State and losing to
Wake Forest. That the South Caro
linians can hit is undoubted, and they
certainly have a good pitching staff.
If they fail to show up well today
it was because Carolina simply out
classed any other team in the state,
for the Sandlappers certainly have an
excellent team.
The Carolina team has been look
ing good all week. About the only
thing in doubt at present is the out
field positions. Fetzer didn't have
much material for the outfield, Sweet-

the confidence by a successful oper
ation on a small boy who had bjen
in great physical pain for several
years.
After this he won the people to
him, and established schools, and
many institutions for tl good of
the district. He was principal of
the high school in the town in which
it was located for a year in 1312.
In conclusion Dr. Goheen said that
he was much gratified to see what
Christianity can do for a people and
asked the young men of the Uni
versity to think over the chance of
doing similar work, and of going
over.
Both Papers Dealt With Self-Help
Aids to Home and Farm
Ownership.
The meeting of the North Carolina
Club Monday night was featured by
two interesting papers dealing with
the solution of the tenancy problem,
one by J. P. Trotter and the other
by P. A. Reavis. Both papers dealt
with self-help aids to home and farm
ownership, Mr. Trotter discussing
building and loan associations, and
Mr. Reavis explaining the farm loan
act and Congressman Kelly's pro
posed plan of revision of the postal
savings system.
It was shown how all of these can
be made valuable agencies for en
abling renters to rise out of tenancy
into home and farm ownership. Mr.
Trotter explained the valuable ser
vice that the building and loan asso
ciations have rendered in the past
and also the advantages that lie in
their future expansion.
Mr. Reavis showed how Congress
man Kelly's plan would greatly in
crease the postal savings deposits in
the country and make a large sum
available for building homes or buy
ing farms. The value and use of
the farm loan act to tenant farmers
was also explained.

Ten schools are entered so fair in

6 and 7. Other schools are ex
pected to enter between now and
tomorrow night, which is the last
chance for institutions to enter.
The tournament and meet prom-
tative plan drawn up by the campus
cabinet is, briefly, to extend all-student
support to the three University
publications, the Y. M. C. A. and Inter-collegiate
debating teams, to el
iminate drives and campaigns for
financial support for these activities,
and to make the activities respon
sible to the student body as a whole
instead of to a certain group as at
present. The estimated additional
fee in exchange for which each stu
dent would receive a Yackety Yack,
Y. M. C. A. membership, subscrip
tions to the Tar Heel and Magazine,
and the satisfaction of supporting the

Spring football began ait Caro
lina Wednesday afternoon, a small
squad of men out for practice. The
extreme heat and the fact that base

squad of last fall were oui and look
ed good.
Coaches Bill and Bod fetzer are
well pleased with the prospects of a
great football team next year. The
entire team of last fall will be back
with the exception of Gilon and pos
sibly Lowe. There are number of:
good men coming from the freshman :

GREENLAW RETURNS TO
UNIVERSITY THIS WEEK
Dr. Edwin Greenlaw, head of
the English department at the
University, will return to the
hill Thursday and resume his
work after a three . months
leave of absence to the Univers
ity of Chicago.
The library at this Univers
ity offered excellent facilities
for research work In the early
Renaissance period of English
literature on which subject Dr.
Greenlaw is now editing a book.
This book has not as yet been
turned over to the publishers,
and it is not known when it will
come out.
A furnished home at this in
stitution was left vacant by the
absence of an instructor, and
he was thereby enabled to get
a convenient and -comfortable
dwelling for his family.
Dr. Greenlaw also has anoth
er book, "A History of English
Literature," that is about ready
for the press. He collected che
material and data for this book
during the latter part of last
summer and early this fall.
This edition will be used as a
high school text.
D.B. Jacobi was the first to re
spond to President Murchison's re
quest for a general discussion of the
proposition. He opposed it, he said,
on the ground that it was an un
demccratic step and that it was tak
ing away the student's right to pay
for what he wants and to do without
the rest.
Secretary Comer stressed the co
operative nature of the plan, show
ing how each activity would be
enbled to increase the quality of its
service at a minimum cost per stu
dent. He cited many colleges, par
ticularly Georgia Tech, where the
system has been tried and proven so
successful that there is no thought of
repealing it. The unifying influence
upon the student 'body would be
very great, said Mr. Comer, a fact
which may be readily verified by
comparing the unity of the Georgia
Teach student body, which has the
pooled budget, and that of Vander
bilt, which has not yet adopted it.
The Y. M. C. A., said Mr. Comer,
has always had the most opposition to
face in getting a place on such a
budget, because of its religious na
ture. At places where it has been
given this all-student. support, howev-
i er, the "Y" has increased its service
j to such an extent that there has been
! no thought of putting it back on the
' old basis. On the contrary, the State
! College student body voted last year
j to increase their Y. M. C. A. fee
from three to four dollars,
j R. L. Ranson called attention to
the economy of the plan and the
; rrtoney saved to the individual stu-
dent. J. P. Trotter said that he fav
ored the plan but wished to modify
j it by leaving off some of the activi
ties which he thought would not ap
peal to a majority of the students.
