It is almost impossible for those not in close touch with the Univer sity to accurately conceive of its recent material growth. Nor can they appreciate what room for 500 more boys and three new class buildings will mean to Carolina in 1923. Never in its history, since the : laying of the cornerstone of Old East over 128 years ago, has the University experienced such dire need for more room for its students, and never before has such a situa tion bee.i met with such rapidity and admirable results. In addition to the four dormitories the Building Program has had about thirty houses and bungalows erect ed for Carolina's growing faculty, and those men doing construction work who have brought their fami lies to Chapel Hill. The pouring of the concrete for the New History and Science buildings is completed, the foundation dug for the future Law Building, and the new Langu age Building, according to plans, will have classes in it by March. For present Carolina such a pro gram seems at first large; but for a Greater University, every student has faith enough in the Legislature to believe this only a start. To the Legislature and the State, of course, Two of the five churches on the Hill have new buildings which have been in use only two or three years, while the remaining three are plan ning new buildings for next year. The beautiful Sprunt Memorial Presbyterian Church was opened for use in the fall of 1920 and the Christian Church only a few years before. The Methodist and Episco pal churches are to begin their new structures next year, and work has already begun on the new Baptist church. The new Methodist and Episcopal churches are to be built on the campus in practically the same lo cation as the present ones. The old Episcopal church, however, which is over seventy-five years old and which has become one of the landmarks on the campus, is to be left untouched and is to be used for policy or administrative machinery. Such a thing attracts attention, and put people to talking and thinking.

Bryan Grimes, Chairman; John Sprunt Hill, Haywood Parks, W. N. Everett, George Stephens, President H. W. Chase, James G. Gray, W. L. Coker, and C. T. Woollen, Secre tary. The T. C. Atwood Organization on which success or failure depends largely also deserve credit. Mr. Atwood came here with his organiz ation in April 1921 and things have been humming ever since. His or ganization does the architectural, engineering, and directing, as well as the supervising of construction for the new buildings, while the ac tual work itself has been succe fully carried forward by T. C. Thompson & Bro9., contractors from Charlotte. Beauty, conveni ence, and stability have been the aims of both organizations, and it appears that all three will be achiev ed. Remodeling Memorial Hall is one of the smaller jobs completed. From round swimmer, instead of merely fast swimming and fancy diving; it corrects the false standards of the two and combines with these all round efficiency. Those men who make the Corps will be allowed to wear the regular Life Saving In signia on . their bathing suits. The need for the formation of such corps as this is evident .from the fact that over eight thousand persons are drowned every year, which means an approximate aver age of one person per hour. Most of the Southern colleges have al Teady recognized the value of the formation of such corps and Georgia Tech has organized three large ac tive corps. . The members of the present corps, wno win act as a nucleus about whom next year's corps will be formed are: L. P. Williams, F. P. Parker, Jr., Allen McGhee, F. F. Parker, Pierce Matthews, H. J. Wheeler, G. B. Cramer, F. C. Pharr, and A. A. Miller, Jr. This corps will probably function practice here for the first time. The institution of this system has been planned for some time, and it has been the cause of much dee thinking, planning, scheming and investigation. Both branches of the engineering department electrical and civil will henceforth employ this system of education, and all the students in engineering will hence forth be co-operators students and day laborers. Professor G. M. Braune, who came here from the University of Cincin nati where this system of education was first tried out, was the instinga tor of the move to employ the same system here, and it is largely due to his efforts that the plan has suc ceeded. Professor Braune is at the head of the civil engineering depart ment. He has been ably assisted in his efforts in this work by Profes sors P. H. Daggett, head of the elec trical engineering department, and H. F. Janda, associate professor of highway engineering. Co-operative education is a sys tem of education whereby the Uni versity will be in co-operation with various commercial engineering or ganizations. Itfl primary ifunction (Continued on Page Four.) students. Many of the University's most distinguished students have been self-help students, and many of the greatest leaders in North Carolina to day earned their college expenses in whole or in part. The average grade of the student who works is as high as that of the one who does not work, in spite of the time he neces sarily . spends away from his books. "They study hard," says a well known newspaper, "contributing much to give the campus solidity and seriousness of purpose. They gain much in maturity of personality, in tegrity of character, and knowledge of life." No student at the University, however snobbish, views the self help student with any disrespect. Those who work are just as much respected as those who are fortunate enough for work not to be neces sary. The pride of dress and dis play is not recognized as a portion of the campus ideal. The nature of the work ranges from janitor service to stenography.

Other buildings that must be constructed in the near future are a new library, pharmacy, medical, and gymnasium buildings and more dormitories.

Out of the 250 schools which entered the debate, 60 won the right to come to the Uni versity for the finals. Durham won the cup by a four to one decision over Burlington on the query: "Re solved: That the U. S. should enter the League of Nations." The High School Debating Union was organized ten years ago by the Di and Phi Societies at the sugges tion of C. E. Mcintosh; the debates are carried on under the auspi" of the Extension Department of the University. While the debaters are here, the girls are entertaind by the townspeople and the county clubs look after the boys. After the two preliminaries, Bur lington, affirmative, and Durham, negative, were chosen for the finals.

Credit is also due the Ex aminers, R. L.

The The series for state championship in all branches of athletics carried on by the Extension Department of the University, has aroused more in terest among the high schools of the state this year than ever before. More high schools entered the series, high schools entered the sris, and the people of the state have shown their increasing interest by their attendance at the preliminary con tests, and by their co-operation with the Extension Department in pro moting the contests. These series are held in order to bring the high schools of the state into closer re lations with the University. This has, beyond , all doubts, been the most successful year since the cus tom was begun. In football, twenty-seven schools entered the race for state champion ship honors, and after a good sea son, Fayetteville and Winston-Salem locked horns in the final game of the series, with Fayettevlle emerg ing from the dust of the battle the victor. Fewer schools enter foot ball than other sport because of the expense of equipping a squad . Basketball seemed the most popu lar sport, with fifty-nine teams en tering the championship series. Af ter a very successful year, with some brilliant team work, and no small amount of spectacular individual playing, Greensboro and Durham fought their way to the final cham- accidentally, carrying off as the per-j pionship game.

The Glee Club, this year, has been the largest and strongest of several years. The musical clubs, orchestra and .glee club combined, made the tour of the western part of the State last fall, and although they almost split even financially, they "made a hit" everywhere they gave concerts. The general opinion was that.tjiis was the best glee club in the State. Week end trips were made to Greensboro and Raleigh, where the concert were also great successes. ' The music department furnished music for the home performances of the playmakers and for other import ant events on the Hill, as well as giving several concerts. During the year, two concerts were given by the Letz quartet and the Leiter Opera Company, under the auspices of the music department. The Sunday afternoon recitals given this year were also under the auspices of the music department. Of the eight, three were given by musicians from out of town, one by students, and the remaining four by the music faculty and home talent.

ALL TEAMS EXTRA GOOD Outstanding Achievement Is Three Game Shut-Out Against Vir ginia in Baseball. Carolina lost only two athletic contests to colleges within the State during the 1921-22 season, and re mained undefeated on the home grounds. The reverse at the hands of the State College in football last fall alone prevented the-Blue and White from annexing a champion ship in every major sport. - The Fetzer brothers deserve a large share of the credit for the fine showing made by the Tar Heels this year. It was through their nhl coaching and untiring efforts that suen smooth running machines were developed. The coming of the Fet zers to Carolina has established a new era in athletics here and the outlook is favorable for even better seasons than that of 1921-22. Football Team Strong. A wealth of material was on hand at the opening of football practice, and prospects were bright for a winning team. A powerful offense was built around Lowe and Jo ston, and a well balanced line com posed of veterans put up stiff re sistence against opposing backs. The linemen were especially fast on going down under punts. The first game of the season was won from Wake Forest before the opening of school. Johnston and Lowe were the best ground gaine The former was injured in the fray with the Baptists and could not make the. trip to Yale, while Lowe was in jured early in the New Haven con test which left the Tar Heels in a crippled condition. - Yale won 34 to 0. South Carolina proved to be an other stumbling j block,, and with Johnston and Lowe out of the line up until the last few minutes, the Gamecocks tied the Tar Heels 7-7. The hardest fall of the year came in the State College game when "Runt" Faucette recovered a fumble and placed the pigskin behind the goal line after a twenty yard run. Carolina was in scoring distance several times but always failed to produce the needed punch. In the Maryland game Capta' Lowe and his men struck their stride. "Runt" kicked three field goals and Johnston skirted the ends almost at will. When the final whis tle blew, the score was Carolina 16, Maryland 7. "Red" Johmiton ran riot against V. M. I. and the Blue and White emerged victorious 20 to 7. Fred Morris played a great game before breaking his collar bone, and Pritch ard was a tower of strength on the defense. Davidson held Carolina to a 0-0 tie in Winston-Salem. The Wild cates are always a 'scrappy organiz ation, and they are scrappiest against the University. The Tar Heels did not get the offense launched against the ' Presbyterians ' that was in evi dence against Maryand and V. M. I.. Virginia Beaten 7-3 ' On Thanksgiving day all former disappointments were forgotten when Captain Lowe's team battled their way to a hard earned victory over the Orange and Blue of Vir ginia. In the first quarter the rep resentatives of the- Old Dominion had the upper hand and scored on a field goal by Clark. Coach Fetzer then uncorked a variety of attack that baffled the Virginians, and when "Runt" Lowe tore off twentv- five yards around Virginia's rigit end and crossed the last chalk line, the game was won.: Virginia had a golden opportunity ;in the last few minutes but a grounded pass behind' the goal line gave the Tar Heels the ball, and when, the whistle blew, Carolina had triumphed in a battle that will live long in the memory of the thousands that .witnessed it. Grady Pritchard was elected to pilot the team next ' season which promises to be one of We best thit Carolina has. ever turned out.
