Full Social Program Causes Or
ganization to Print By
Laws in Full,
In order to familiarize the new
men who have entered school here for
the first time this. year with 'the
workings of the German Club, and in
accordance with its policy, the Execu
tive Committee takes this opportunity
to publish a complete list of the by
laws by which dances in Chapel Hill,
under the jurisdiction of the Univer
sity, -are regulated. The members of
the Executive Committee for the cur
rent year are: Bowman Gray, Presi
dent; June Adams, Vice-President; W.
L. Marshall, Secretary-Treasurer; C.
E. Waddell, Chairman of the Execu
tive Committee; R. L. Zealy, Secre
tary of the Executive Committee;
Vernon Cowper, Mac Gray, and Nel
son Woodson, Members of the Com
mittee. The Faculty. Committee on
Dances which works in conjunction
with the Executive Committee is as
follows: Dr. W. S. Bernard, Chair
man; Dr. W. M. Dey, and Dr. R. E.
Coker.
Every spring in Chapel Hill the
number of dances and social enter
tainments is greater than at any other
time during the whole school year.
This spring is no exception. However,
in spite of the unsuual number of en
tertainments, the Executive Commit
tee of the erman Club has not had a
proportionate increase in the number
of infractions of the rules and regu
lations. This is evidence of a com
mendable spirit on the part of those
who attend dances here . in Chapel
Hill. " V

are as follows:
The members of the University of
North Carolina German Club, in reg
ular session assembled, do adopt, in

The Hancock school act will be a
great boon to rural education, because
the doubted State support, $6,500,000,
will go to aiding the poorer counties
maintain schools comparable with the
wealthier counties, according to a re
search paper presented before the
North Carolina Club of the Univer
sity here last Monday night by Marion
R. Alexander, University senior from
Asheville,.
"There are the most disparaging
inequalities between rural schools and
urban schools of the State," accord
ing to findings presented in the paper,
"and without State aid equal school
advantages are impossible, since the
taxable wealth per pupil varies from
$2.7,202 in one county to $1,223 , in
another,"
Mr. Alexander in his paper, the
subject of which was "Rural Educa
tion in North Carolina," further show
ed that by the doubled State aid the
Legislature definitely recognized
State responsibility for support of
all schools and broke ground for an
8-month minimum term at the next
session of the legislature.

Speaking before the fourth regu-
ar meeeting of the University of
North Carolina Chapter of the Tay-
or Society Tuesday evening, Dr. G.
T. Schwenning, of the Department of
Economics and Commerce, outlined
the four elementary principles of bus
iness management as stated by Mr.
Taylor and also presented a short
discussion of eight .fundamental aims
of scientific business management.
In beginning his talk, Df. Schwen
ning stated that the meeting of the
Taylor Society which was to have
met at Charlotte had been postponed
because of the present labor troubles
in the textile industry in that re
gion. The strikes are not the result
of scientific management, but rather
the product of unscientific manage
ment stated the speaker.
The four principles of scientific
management, for the study of which
the society was organized, are: the
development of an exact science of
management, the scientific selection
of workers, the scientific training
and promotion of workers, and the
development of cooperation and har
mony between the management and
the workers. Later in his talk Dr
Schwenning gave eight aims of bus
iness management and discussed each
of vthese aims briefly.
At the next meeting of the society,
which will be held May 15 in the
auditorium of Bingham Hall, H. S.
Person, managing director of the
Taylor Society, will deliver an ad
dress. After the address by Mr.' Per
son, the local chapter will have a
short business meeting to elect of
ficers for next year.
The chapter of the Society at the
University of North Carolina is one
of four such college chapters in the
United States, and it is the only one
in the entire South.
Miss Lillie Parker
Joins Flying School
Miss Lillie Parker, of Chapel Hill
and Durham, has enrolled in the fly
ing school conducted at Chapel Hill.

she says. Miss Parker's home is in
Durham, but at the present time she
is living with relatives in Chapel Hill.
