:nOSE TERRIBLE BLUE DEVILS
Ever since Howard Jones came
iown to North Carolina several years
tgo we have been hearing tales of
now terrible the Blue Devils were
going to be. When Jimmy Dehart,
Washington and Lee : mentor, 'took
over the coaching duties at the
Methodist institution, those tales be
came very pronounced everywhere in
North Carolina. Almost three years
have passed since he . former Lex
ington coach assumed control of the
Devils and now it is claimed that he
has built a really powerful machine
over in Durham.
, We haven't been fortunate enough
to see the Duke grid machine in ac
tion this year, preferring to go to
Charlottesville and watch the Caro
lina-Virginia game -Thanksgiving
But we are told that they really were
good. Sport stories have; been sent
out to the effect that for the first
time in three years the Devil, eleven
is working the way Dehart wants it
. That was against Davidson.
But to go back to those stories we
ave heard about what Duke was go
ig to do io, North Carolina football
earns. Last season, we are told, at
cer being eliminated from the title
race by State, they planned to invade
Chapel Hill : after they took ; second
place by cleaning up Carolina. Offi
cial warning was given the students
not to wreck Chapel- Hill as Duke
would like to have at least one easy
game on its future schedules. , Of
course these were reports; but re
ports can go a long way. Evidently
they did, for Coach Collins sent
eleven men on the Duke gridiron that
didn't give the, Durham boys a
chance. When the final whistle blew
there was very little left of the vaunt-,
ed scoring machine Duke had. "That
included the nation's high scorer.
John Jankoski. ,
Before the season began this fall
Duke , was picked by many sport au
thorities and by many who weren't
authorities on anything much to cop
the state title. ' At this time the
Devils have the inside track to the
state title with a clear record.5 Caro
Una's record is somewhat blurred by
a tie game with the 1927 champions,
State College. Ever since Duke took
State down by two points they have
been picked to win. We are inter
ested in seeing how many people pick
Duke t'o win this week-end. We are
also interested in seeing how many
people outside of Chapel. . Hill pick
Carolina to win.
Duke evidently has a good football
team. They have played some good
football teams, but we can't see how
they can be rated as champions of
North Carolina. They have, as a
matter of .fact, several good football
players over there. They have a fine
coach. They have a fine University
or will have one in the next few years.
But even with all of that we think
that we have a slight edge on them
all' the way round. They have with
out a doubt the desire to win this
game. They have had it ever since
they had a football team. And un
less the Duke students are wrong in
their guesses they would ' rather lick
Carolina than any other team they
play. That is Carolina's luck. David
son -had the same desire. So had
Virginia. Both lost. It's 'Duke's
turn now. We think they will lose.
THE CAROLINA GOAL POST
Taking the cue. from some ambiti
ous Carolina students who confiscated
the Virginia goal post after the
Thanksgiving game, Duke is planning
to take the uprights placed at the
two ends of Kenan field home with
them. That is if they win. But ac
cording to Duke they can't lose.
They have the best team in the
South. They beat ; State, ? Mercer,
Wake Forest, Davidson, and perhaps
one or two others. Now they are
going to beat Carolina. When they
- do . it they must beat us completely
and take the goal posts back to -Durham
as souvenirs. They will also
try to take anything else back to
Durham" they can get their hands on,
but what they want , are the goal
posts. They are necessary. They
must be captured. We haven't
sounded,., out student sentiment here
at, the .Hill on the proposition, but
we have.- an idea that most of them
would hate to see the beauty of Kenan
field marred by having Duke students
tramp over it and take the goal posts
away. Of course the football team
will do its best to keep , the .uprights
where they are, but we are wonder
ing what will happen if , the unex
pected occurs and Carolina loses
What we are drivincr at is this: How
many Carolina students are going to
defend the uprights if we happen to
lose the game?
By JOE JONES
There is in one of the dormitories
on this campus a man who should
be a pet subject for Psychologist
Crane of Carolina or McDougall of
Duke, or of anyone else proficient in
the art of psychophysics, hypnotism,
somnabulism, or, in other words, the
ungarnished tomfoolery of a sleep
walker. Sometimes once in a week,
sometimes not that often, this fellow
goes on a veritable bedtime spree,
draws a crowd, entertains royally,
and adds another molecule of fear to
his room-mates' misgivings in room
ing with a man who does all manner
of things, good, bad, and indifferent,
in his sleep. - -s
The student m question, whose
name will not be disclosed, but whom,
for conveniency's sake, we shall call
Dick, is absolutely one of the most
vitally interesting sleep-walkers-talk-ers-dancers-prancers
anyone oould
wish to see free of charge. While
asleep he has a striking personality;
he is capable of brilliant repartee, of
the freshest, pithiest wise-cracking,
of, quoting statistics correctly and
glibly, of breaking clever lances of
conversation on almost any subject.
Sometimes he carries on arguments,
harangues, or damns an enemy with
wide-open eyes, but when he. awakes
he is unable to recall a thing of what
he has done or said.' As far as - he
knows he has slept quietly and peace
fully. ; To an onlooker it is a rather
weird thing. . Really, it is nothing
short of marvelous that a reporter
can interview a - man .without . the
man's knowing about it.
In his sleep-talks Dfck is perfectly
candid and unhesitatingly ; says; what
he thinks. Many and; intimate are
the questions put to him by. the boys
who gather about, ard - he plainly
answers them : out . of an open mind,
absolutely ? without dissimulation,
which is' more than he h or anyone
else, - except a child, would do . while
awake. ; Upon request he will give
his frank opinion of any professor
or of any of his acquaintances. Some
profs he roundly cusses out, others
he heaps praises upon, but . he is al
ways consistent from night to night;
he never contradicts himself. ;
He is a booster of Al Smith, and
before the election he spent many of
his sleeping hours delivering vigorous
and bombastic political speeches in
behalf of his favorite candidate.; .
Dick is a good student of geology,
whereupon he looked rather sheepish
and got back in bed amid the laughter
of his audience. He. sings, too. in
his sleep, his favorite selection being
Red Hot Henry Brown."
If anyone angers the boy while in
one of his somnabulisms he charges
upon the object of his , wrath, often
snatching a shoe as a weapon. The
person so . threatened usually beats
a nasty retreat as uick is Dy no
means puny. On several occasions he
has .flung a shoe through the tran
som when, the door was held against
him by the person . . he was after.
One night'he ran two of his .tormen-
ters clear out of. the dormitory, but,
clad only in his pajamas, hesitated
