Tar Heels Triumph Over
Blue Devils In 5-4 Victory
DOPE IS UPSET
Duncanites Slam Ball Over
Hanes Field Saturday
Afternoon.
HATLEVS HOMER FEATURES
Westmoreland and Poyner Pitch
Smooth Game for Carolina Chap
pell Weilds Heavy Bat for Duke.
BarrAs and barrels of perfectly good
pre-game dupe were upset on Hanes
field Saturday afternoon when the Tar
Heel sluggers gave the highly touted
Blue Devil nine the little end of a 5
to score. The Duke hitters were held
to 5 hits by "Lefty" Westmoreland and
Bill Poyner, while the Carolina gun
ners were shelling Thompson and Thomas
12 bingles, one of which was a wicked
drive by "Hat" Hatley, that cleared the
center field wall.
At the start of the game there was a
great number of hopeful, but not very
optimistic, Carolina supporters in the
stands. But; with two down in the first
inning, Hatley injected the missing op
timism ' by straightening out one of
Thompson's hooks and sending it for a
ride out' of the park. Westmoreland
then stepped into the box and set the
Duke sticksmiths down one, two, three,
for the first two innings, walked one in
the third after two were out, and then
came back in the fourth to get them in
order again. After such an exhibition
of pitching as that the Carolina sup
porters could see nothing but a Tar
Heel victory.
With one away in the fifth, an injury
to a finger on Westmoreland's pitching
hand caused his retirement from the
gume and the vetern Bill Poyner was
sent to the mound. Although inclined to
be a bit wild at times, the big right
hander always had a little stuff in re
serve for a pinch and kept the Duke
artillerymen from doing any great
amount of damage for the rest of the
game.
Ed Mackie and Hatley were the big
guns of Carolina's attack. Mackie turn
ed in four hits out of five trips to the
plate for" his afternoons" work,' and two
of these blows were good for a couple
of bags. Besides his home run, Hatley
came through In the seventh with a
single that sent in a run after two men
had been retired.

Meeting.

Junior Commencement Debate Com
mittee Appointed Resolution Ta
bled Until Next Session.
Before the customary group of faith
fuls the Phi Assembly held the first
meeting since the Easter holidays, Sat
urday night. The meeting was begun in
its usual form, the calling of the roll,
and the reading of the minutes of the
previous meeting. Speaker Cooper chose
a committee consisting of T. E. demons,
C. A. Dees and N. O. Eaddy, to confeT
with the Di senate committee concerning
the Junior Commencement Debate.
The first resolution before the house
met with a flutter of interest Retolved,
"That the Phi Assembly go on Tecord as
being in favor of the Col. Mitchell's plan
of the separation of the departments of
Aviation, Army, and Navy." Mr. Dees
introduced the bill, which had been ta
bled at the last meeting. He was fol
lowed by Mr. Lewis, who opposed the
resolution, calling attention to the great
expense this separation would entail,
while it would not be more efficient than
tthe present .system. It remained for
K. O." Warren to champion Col. Mit
chell's plan. He admitted that the com
plication of military affairs made it nec
essary for some division of departments,
particularly in aviation, which was the
mainstay of future wars. The audience
:showed their enthusiasm for the plan by
voting for It by a large majority.

Championship for Locals.
Uogers, Asheville tennis star, won the
state singles championship from Ken
dall, of Shelby, yesterday in a thrilling
tennis match marked by the consistent
steady work of the winner. The game
was witnessed by a large crowd of in
terested tennis fans, who were thorough
ly appreciative of the brand of tennis
exhibited by the performers. Time after
time when beautiful recoveries were made
of hard shots the crowd expressed its
appreciation by laud hand clapping.
Rogers, playing carefully and craftily,
came in from the base line to the net
and smashed the slow lobs of his oppo
nent with deadly precision. Most of his
points, however, were contributed by the
errors of the loser. The final score was
6-3, 6-3, 6-1, which does not clearly por
tray the closeness of the match.
Rogers, the new state champion will
be remembered here as the tall lanky
youth who starred for AshevUle high in
the finals of the State Basketball Cham
pionship this year.
The doubles match provided the real
excitement of the afternoon. Paulsen and
Merritt. of Chapel Hill, finally defeated
Kendall and Singleton, of Shelby, by
the score of 5-7, 8-6, 6-3, 3-6, 6-4. At no
time were spoctators or the players sure
of the outcome. Both teams lacked the
punch to. put over the decisive point
when the opportunity presented itself.
Kendall, still tired with the effects of
his single match with Rogers, played a
nice game. . Chapel Hill owed its victory
to superior steady playing. The new

On Thursday afternoon two of the
oldest rivals in the country, namely Car
olina and Virginia, clash at Charlottes

are represented this year by splendid
track teams. If an actual rating of both
aggregations were made, both would be

ship Race.
When Duke Duncan's Tar Heel ball
tosscrs meet the baseball nine from Elon
on Emerson field Wednesday afternoon
at 4 o'clock there is going to be a grand
scramble for the big end of the score,
for both teams are head over heels in
the battle for the state championship,
and a defeat may cost either the rag,
The Tar Heels are especially anxious to
take this game since it comes on the eve
of the Virginia battles and a victory
now will do much to inspire the team's
confidence in it's ability to lick the
Cavaliers.
The "Christians" have one of the
strongest teams in the state and to de
feut them will be no -easy task for the
Tar Heels. The Elonites already have
victories over several of the strongest
teams in this section and the Carolina
team will be fighting hard to break their
winning streak. The scalps of both
Wake Forest and State are among those
hanging from' the visitors' belt and they
are anxious to Jtdd that of the Univer
sity to their string.
The manner in which the Tar Heels
disposed of Whitted's Blue Devils Sat

the upset handed the dope bucket in the
Carolina-Duke game they will be a bit
slow about predicting who will win Wed

DR. CHASE SPEAKS SUNDAY EVENING
ON THEME "EDUCATION AND RELIGION"
President Delivers Strong Address At Chapel Of Cross. De
clares That It Is Puty Of State Institutions To Con
cern Self With Religious Questions Treats
Of Questions of Today.
In speaking on ."Education and Re
ligion" at the Chapel of the Cross on
Sunday night, Dr. Chase declared that
the duty of all educational institutions is
to "teach their students the Christian
method of living."
.'There is at times a great deal of mis
understanding as to the place of state
institutions in the matter of relating re
ligion and education," he said, in explain
ing that separation of church and state
does not necesarily mean that a state
supported institution should not bother
itself with religion. Dr. Chase declared
that an educational institution cannot
possibly keep from concerning itself with
religion. .
"Educational institutions employ two
methods of instructing in Christianity,
either or both of which may be used,"
he pointed out. One is formal Instruc
tion in religion, and the other is the
contribution which education makes by
working out a Christian method of liv
ing by relating knowledge to live and
spiritual forces.
President Chase explained that any
institution which does its duty in help
ing to gain an appreciation of the vir
tues of civilisation. "It trains them to
understand the life about us and to find
out the truth about this life," he said,
"That is a reil contribution to Chris
tianity. Any institution that is worth
while tries to give people an attitude
toward life, an outlook, sympathy that
is grounded in spiritual forces. It ought
to try some sort of philosophy about life,
some sort of orientation.

BANKS NOW HAVE
MORE INFLUENCE
Miss Lindsay Presents Outline

Says
C. CLUB PAPER
Bankers Should Cooperate in
Keeping Money At Home.
'In the last 50 years knowledge has
multiplied amazingly; It has multiplied
so fast that it hasn't yet been well ad'
justed. One of the great problems of
educational institutions now' is to relate
the common body of knowledge to life.
After all life is a unity and the world
is an orderly sort of place." -
"The problem of formal instruction
in an im.'titution like ours is a more
difficult problem. But it may be solved
if good will and intelligence be applied.
The University couldn't give instruction
in any particular creed. But experi
ments in giving instruction in the Bible
in state supported institutions are now
going on throughout the country, and the
time may not be far hen some formal
instruction in the Bible and in the un
derlying principles of Christianity may
be available in this and other such In
stitutions. Such Instruction, if given un
der the proer conditions would be an
exceedingly valuable addition."
Discussing the methods that some of
the state institutions have employed in
giving such instruction, he said that some
have chartered schools of religion near
the campus, the institution giving proper
credit for courses completed in such
schools. Other institutions have chairs
for Bible on the faculty that are main
tained from other than public funds.
Regarding the situation here 'at the
University, he said that ministers of the
different churches are cooperating on a
plan whereby the Bible instruction may
be given here In the near future.
The North Carolina Club had one of
its most instructive meetings of the year
yesterday evening at 7:30 in 112 Saun

paper which she had carefully prepared
called, "A Community Program for the
llank",' and an interesting discussion fol
lowed of the niuin points she brought
out.
' In her article Miss Lindsay stated:
"The bank whs, when first organized,
only a safe place to keep money. Among
the other things the bank does now, it
finances customers when they start in
business; it advises them as to the best
means of making the business a success,
and it maintains a trust department to
look ufter its customers' estates after
they are gone.
"A bank prospers only as a community
prospers. It has a direct influence on
the commercial as well as agricultural
enterprises of a section. The banks are
now working to induce the farmers to
"Live at Home" by producing more sup
ply crops such as corn, dairy products,
vegetables, and fruits, and then produce
fewer money crops such as cotton and
tobacco. '

host of beautiful girls and a mob
of light-hearted boys swayed to the
tuneful music of the Tarsonlans made
the first Grail dance of the Spring
quarter, held Saturday night in Bynuru
Gymnasium, u decided success. The oc
casion was featured by orderliness and
sobriety and it was without doubt one
of the most enjoyed Grail dances yet
given on the Hill.
Many out-of-town visitors attended
and although the floor was slightly
crowded, the only thing that marred the
evening was the fi.ct that the dance
ended; so early. Early In the evening
the .stags began to line themselves around
the walls and the first girls to arrive
found quite an array of dunce-hungry
admirers awaiting them,. To the choice
assortment of feminine talent present,
belongs the real credit for the success
of the dance.' Girls from far and near,
representatives of girl's schools all over
the south, debutantes of state-wide re
nown, and last, but not least, our own
dear co-eds, graced the event with their
presence and brought ramance and gla
mour to the dull, unromantlc Gymna
sium, 'milking the dance a worthy suc
cessor to' the Alpha Kappa Psi dance
among the week-end social functions.
Two innvations in the usual Grail
dance regulations were put into prac
tice Saturday night. The fact that no
stage were allowed to enter the hall after
ten-thirty did much to get the dance off
ton an early start and to help prevent
the crowded conditions that have marred
many previous dances in the Gymnasium.
The Order of the Grail has not decided
definitely that this shall be a permanent
rule but it is very likely that this will
be the case. Th other inaugurated is
perhaps even more harsh thun the one
first mentioned. "No Spectators Allow

at the door that met the eyes of many

HELD THIS WEEK
Carolina Racqueteers Host to
North Carolina State Ten
nis Tournament.
EXPECT LIVELY CONTEST
Comes Thursday, Friday and Satur
Day All Colleges Represented
Except State.
m a
Carolina's splendid array of clay courts
will be the scene of the North Carolina
State Tennis Tournament, Thursday,
Friday, and Saturday. Every college in
the state will send representatives to the
tournament except N. C. State College.
The Technicians from Raleigh claim that
their courts have been torn np all year,
and they haven't built up a team as yet.
Last spring the tournament was greet
ed with splendid success, and if the wea
ther only allows, this year will see just
as good an exhibition. Carolina hugged
all the honors of the last tournament,
when "Hap" Whittaker, captain of this
year's net team, met and defeated "Abe"
Soloman, captain of last year's aggre
gation in a thrilling five-set match. Ful
ler and Soloman, Carolina, were defeated
for the doubles crown by McCutclfeon
and Price, of Davidson, only after five
sets had been played.
Davidson has another splendid doubles
team this year in the person of Mc
Cutcheon and Carr. If these two can
defeat Elgin and Whittaker of Carolina
or Rogers and Burns of Duke they ought
to have easy riding to the title. The
Davidson team hs not lost a single dou
bles match so far this year. The ques
tion Ik, can they maintain their untar
nished record through Ihe tournament?
Rogers of Duke is touted as the best
tennis player in the state, and has been
suggested as the probable candidate to
succeed Whittaker. The Duke tlur is a
brother of the Asheville youth who won
