SOUTHERN SENDS SPECIAL TRAIN TO VIRGINIA GAME V Through Train " with Pullmans Will Leave Chapel HiU Wednesday Night ROUND-TRIP FARE $7.99 'On To Charlottesville" Slogan of Cheerios and Student . , . Body ; Drive Conducted On Campus Yester day Netted 160 New Members The Annual itolKCall of the American Red Cross for 1926 was held on the campus yester .day by the WomaVs Associa tion and the Y. M. C. A. of the University. The Roll Call : for Chapel Hill, sponsored by the local Chapter of the Red Cross, began Armistice Day and con tinues through the week., Students, were given the op portunity of answering the 1926 Roll Call yesterday at booths on the campus and at the Post Oft fice from 10 :00 a. m. to- 4 :00 p. m. Approximately one hun dred and sixty dollars in mem berships was contributed by the student body. This slightly exceeds the amount of the Roll Call for 1925 Now that the worry of mid term grades is over, the poor University student has a new problem to face. According to the big, white, placards which have made their apearance on the campus, any student who can scrape up seven dollars and ninety-nine" cents '.. will be able to travel day coach deluxe to and from Charlottesville on Thanks giving day. .Through the courtesy of the Southern Railway a special train will be run to and from Char lottesville for the Thanksgiv ing game at the reduced rate of one fare for the round trip, namely $7.99. The special train leaves Chap el Hill Wednesday night at 9 :45. The getaway will be made from Pittsboro street at the "railroad crossing just in back .of the Carolina Inn. The train will ar rive at Charlottesville Thurs day morning at 7 :00. Thursday night at 11:30, all students not extinct, will take the tram back to Chapel Hill and will arrive University at 7:00, bright and early Friday morning A large number of students have already expressed. "their desire to accompany the foot ball players and the Cheerios to Charlottesville via the $7.99 route. That means that during the next ten days, the campus is going to' settle under a cloud of economy, and the slogan made famous by the German soldiers of "on to Paris" will be replac el by a slogan of "on to Char lottesville." The latter slogan it is hoped will meet with more success than its predecessor did. Company of Thirty Men Goes to Raleigh for Concert at St. Mary's Monday TO SOUTH CAROLINA ALSO Additions Are Made to Personnel , of Executive Department ; ; Phi Kappa Sigma announces the pledging of Randolph Crom well Harrison, of Charleston, S." Endeavorers Have Social The Christian Endeavor and Bible Class of the Presbyterian and Christian churches respec tively entertained the local, young girls at a social held in the social room of . the Presby terian church- Wednesday eve- amount ning. t After the joyous crowd of co-eds, secretaries, stenograph ers, "and high school girls along with the Misses Apperson and Miss Ligley of Durham had en joyed the games and entertain ments, hot chocolate and sand wiches were served. . The1 University Glee Club un der the direction of John Paul Weaver will leave on Monday, November 15th for " Raleigh, where' the first concert of the Carolinas tour will be presented at St. Mary's School. The Club will return to Chapel Hill over Tuesday and begin the actual tour with a concert at E. C. T. College of Greenville, N. C. From there the itinerary is as follows: Wednesday at Goldsboro, Thurs day at Fayetteville, Friday at Lumberton, Saturday at Wilson, Monday at Charleston, S. C, and Tuesday at Columbia, S. C. The entire trip will be made by bus, and the Club will probably re turn in time for the Thanksgiv ing holidays. - .Thirty of the forty men who were retained for intensive prac tice during the past weeks will be chosen to make the trip. Nelson O. Kennedy, pianist of the music department, will ac company the Club and will pre sent & group of piano solos. '.. The program presented this season is unique. ; Besides the folk-songs and negro spirituals in , which the Club has always specialized, - a group of Finnish and Russian folk-songs will be given. "The Song of the Volga Boatman," in an attractive ar rangement by Mr. Weaver, wit be sung in the original Russian, as no suitable translation is now available. ; The . program has been . lightened and made more popular by the addition of some new negro spirituals and work- songs. However, these, all con form to the high standard of musical quality maintained by the Glee Club. Additional Officers Elected Due to an expansion of effort and scope, the Club has found it necessary to make, the fol lowing additions to its executive staff: Wm. Way, Jr., assistant business manager, who will be in charge of the above mentioned trip, due to the inability of E F.' Young, Business Manager, to leave the Hill; Dan Brawley, publicity manager: and Joe Johnson, librarian.1 The election of these men, who will serve for the remainder of the year, is ex pected to greatly facilitate the administration of theclub's af fairs. ' " .'J ', TAR BABIES WILL MEET MARYLAND FRESHMEN TODAY Game On Emerson Field This Afternoon Promises to Be Hard-Fought Battle - Tar Heels Are Pitted Against Presbyterians in Annual Battle At Davidson This Afternoon MANY YEARLINGS OUT Young Liners Have Unusually Strong Team This Year Rifle First Club Holds Match Today The Carolina Rifle Club will hold its first match between members this season today at 3:00 P. M. f on the Club range. Any member who has xpaid his dues,, and anyone who joins the Club and pays his dues by 2:00 o'clock today, will be allowed to compete for the prizes offered. Those who are to take part in the shooting are to report at the Club office 'in the basement of the Alumni building at 2 :00 P. M. to receive the guns and am munition. AH visitors are cordially in vited. .The' easiest way to get to the range is to follow the old Raleigh road for two miles and then to turn sharply to the right, going through a private road for about one-half of a mile. If there are any Carolina stu dents who can resist the tempta tion of going to Davidson to day, they will be well reward ed for their stay on. the Hill by the freshman ' football game scheduled to be played this af ternoon on Emerson field be tween teams representing the Universities of North Carolina and Maryland. " The Tar Babies have their big chance today to get even with the; Marylanders for the defeat handed the Carolina Varsity by the Maryland Varsity a few weeks ' ago. , Their work is cut out for theni) however, because the Maryland f resides are bring ing a powerf ul aggregation to do battle with the best that the Tar Babies can offer.' The Navy Plebs, with a team made up of several bright college stars? was only able to defeat the first year Old Liners by the score Of 12 to 0 last week. Rumor has it that their visiting freshmen have of ten been a source of trouble in daily scrimmages to their vars sity brothers that handed Yale a sound 15 to 0 licking Satur day. At all odds, the Carolina coaches have been working hard to uphold the precedent set by last year's freshman team that defeated the Maryland freshmen team on the same Emerson field. The Tar Babies showing up to date has not been very impres sive. Three games have been played. The South Carolina Biddies and the State College Wolipack enjoy victories over Carolina's first year representa tives. Their only win is a 7 to 0 victory over Fort Bragg Sold iers. , 1 At no time this year, how ever, has the full strength of the (Continued on page four) A BACKFIELD FIND , f$- - INTEREST IS HIGH Thirty Men, Coaches and Three Managers Left Here Yes terday Afternoon CAROLINA I S FAVORED Davidson Has Never Lost but One Game in Her Present Stadium Carolina Turned the Trick Two Years Ago "Red" Ellison' has been showing a world of stuff at Half back in several games this year.'1 The remarkable thing about his work is that up to this year he has never played in the backfield, confining his efforts to the position of end, 1 PLANS FOR LAST CHEERIO - SHOW BEING COMPLETED Dr. Chase Promises to be Back , Several other Dignitaries to Speak BIG TIME IS PROMISED Proceeds of Show Will Be Used - to Help Send Cheerios! to Virginia , , . Carolina Third Varsity . Wins, Over Raef ord In -Armistice Day Battle The University's third Varsity swamped an all-star team repre senting the Raef ord Athletic club .'in' an Armistice Day foot ball game at Sanford by the score of 34 to 0.' ; The Tar Heels threatened sev eral , times in the first half, . but were only able , to score one touchdown. Near the close of the game, with Tom Coxe, "Mac" Gray, and Coker Dick carrying tb ball for repeated gains, four more touchdowns were shoved over. Three ot tnese marKers came in the last quarter. Oliver, fullback for the Rae- ford eleven, was the bright star for the losers. . Coach Bill Cerney started a backfield composed of Satter- field, quarterback; Sapp and Dick, halfbacks ; and Butler, fullback. Kessler and Beam started at the ends, Harper and Lockhart in the tackle positions, with Huss and Thompson at guard, , and Mcintosh at center. When Tom Coxe and "Mac" Gray, were injected into the Tar Heel line-up, Sapp was shifted to left, end. Beard and Twiford also did some nice work at guard for Carolina's third var sity. , . . All plans for the big Cheerio- O-Show to be given in Memorial Hall on Monday Nov. 22, are well under way and indications point to a successful show. This show will be the last one to be presented before the Thanks giving game and will mark the close of the Cheerio program on the campus for the football sea son of , this, year, The proceeds of this performance will go to help defray the expense of car rying the Cheerios to Virginia for the Thanksgiving game. 'This show will be in the form of a short Revue, there being about nine acts to be presented. This group of acts will include such things as the . opening Chorus of last year's "Black and White Revue," composed of twelve girls and twelve boys ; eccentric , and soft shoe' danc ing by eight men; "French Ap ache Dance of Death," an em ononai aance; a burlesque on this same dance ; : two comedy acts ; a good quartette ; an aero batic clown act; comic monolo gue by a girl ; comedy and musi cal act by Kike Kyser and His Orchestra, etc. At the conclusion of the above mentioned acts, there will be a short pep meeting. , This will be the last opportunity of the stu dent body to see the team and coaches before they leave for Virginia and the plans are to have this the biggest meeting of the yean The entire squad will be there, all the coaches, the band, the Cheerios, and several speakers. Included in the speak ers will be such men as Dr. Chase, M. C. S. Noble, C. T. Wollen, Dr. " Mcintosh, Mr. Frank Graham, and several oth- iers, making one minute talks. Thirty Carolina football men, accompanied by the coaches and three managers, left Chapel Hill for Charlotte at three o'clock Friday afternoon. A light drill on Emerson Field, immediately, before the team's departure. marked the last practice before, the game with Davidson today. .Hotel Charlotte served as headquarters for the team Fri day night. Today coach Collins will transport his men to David son in time for a light lunch be fore thecontest starts. Interest runs high to the outcome of this meeting of Wild cat and Tar Heel. Football dope in North Carolina has been treated to so many upsets' of late sports authorities are de veloping a decided adversibn to the forecasting of scores. The records which trace the progress of the two teams through this season give Caro lina a decided advantage in com parative scores. Davidson suc ceeded in holding Wake Forest conquerors of the Tar Heehvto a 3 and 3 tie; but Carolina de feated V. M. I. by four touch downs the week after V. M. I. had subdued Monk Younger's charges. Many strong teams are vivid witnesses to the fact that the Wildcat eleven is a thorny prop osition when met at Davidson. Only once" has an invader return ed victorious from a contest in the nresent. Davidsrtn stadium. Two years ago Carolina succeed ed in registering a pair of field goals, and emerged winner by that margin. The Tar Heel team is in good shape. The men are unanimous ly confident of victory, but a close struggle. It is probable that coach Collins will employ the same system that has prov ed so effectual in . the past two games; the second string back field will start the game and will display its strength until the moment is opportune ; for re serve strength. At this junc (Continued on page three) Fifth Faun Flops, Finds Finances Flat The editorial board of the Faun announced yesterday that publication of the "independent organ of criticism an(J opinion" has been.temporarily suspended. This suspension is not due, it was added, to a lack of mater ial suitable for publication but rather to financial difficulties which the board has encounter ed. The business staff will put on an extensive advertising cam paign this coming week, and it expected that the next issue will make its appearence a week from today. It is not expected that the . Faun will appear regularly each week from now on, but the board announces that subscribers will be taken care of and that at least ten more issues will be pub lished during this school term, if the staff ; can maintain any degree of solvency whatsoever.
