Ambitious Reporter Learns Cause Jones ' Bandaged Eye (By Lucious Nelly) Many have been the specula tions that have arisen lately over the condition of Howard Jone's eyes. Indeed, so many letters and individuals have ap plied for information that it was iouna necessary to institute a thoroughgoing investigation. The results like the investi gations in Congress are scarce ly to be termed productive. The bearer of the colored glasses and bandaged eye could not and would not be .interviewed. ''"The only other person who would throw light on the matter was Mrs. Howard Mumford Jones. After much pleading onf part of your correspondent, the only in formation that could be elicited was that the inflamation, if it can be called that, of the left orb of the English professor was caused by a pine needle late last Sunday afternoon while riding in an automobile. The story is obviously hot quite clear but Mrs. Jones would speak in only the very vaguest of terms. Mrs. Jones made it -very clear without being asked that her husband was not under the influence' of intoxicating beverages. She expanded a bit and told in more detail that while Mr. Jones was entering the car, an overhanging limb of a pine tree got in the way of Mr. Jones.

Carolina's varsity debating teams broke even in a double engagement at Atlanta, losing to Emory University ' Wednes day night and winning from Georgia Tech Thursday. - Both teams upheld the af firmative side of the question "Resolved, That modern science tends to destroy, theistic faith." W. W. Speight and McB. Flem ing-Jones represented .the Uni versity case against Emory, while J. C. Williams and J. W. Wilkinson competed with Geor gia Tech. Emory and Georgia Tech are both old debating rivals of Caro lina and the competition among these three institutions is so keen that non-decision debates, which are rapidly supplanting the old decision debates, could not be agreed upon, and three judges were selected to render the decision. The University debaters won and lost by the same vote, two to one in each case. The subject of the debates was : oi interest ;owing to tne fact that Emory is a strong; church school while Carolina is distinctly liberal in thought This loss to JUmory evens things up in the long forensic history of the . two institutions Previous to this contest Caro lina held a margin of one in the series. v , ' Williams, Wilkinson and Speight are veterans of inter collegiate debating and Fleming- Jones, while a newcomer, has shown enough ability to win berth on the team over several experienced debaters.' Williams and Wilkinson are both winners of the Wright medal. Williams in addition has received the Bingham medal and has com peted in 10 intercollegiate de bates. Speight has debated for Carolina against Marquette and Virginia, and Wilkinson has numbered among his opponents the British National Union of Students. ?- Basketball Team Loses In First Round Of Conference Tourna ment to University of Georgia GREENE GETS SIX POINTS Sanford Leads Scoring Of Bull dogs v With Ten Points; Caro Una led at half 10-8, Buf Failed To Hold Pace. After setting the pace f or Georgia in the opening minutes of play and leading 10-8 at the half, Carolina's White Phan toms weakened and 'fell before the onslaught of Sanford and his teammates 26-17 in the first round of Southern Conference tournament play at Atlanta last night. With State also losing to Sewanee, Duke remains as the sole standard-bearer of the Old North State in the 1930 race for the title. The Tar Heels played their usual steady game, but failed to hold Sanford down, and the speedy Georgia forward rolled in 10 points to give his team the necessary margin of victory and the right to go on in tourna ment competition.

Nearly every year Mr. Gotter schalk visits the large college and university libraries in the United States. He. also calls oh the owners of the large private libraries. Mr. (iotterscnaik was very favorably impressed with the size arid beauty .of the library building. He was well pleased with the interior of the building, and especially with the decora tion scheme which is carried out throughout the building. Mr. Coney, the assistant li brarian, conducted Mr. Gotter schalk through the building, who examined the Hanes Collection, which is located in the Seminar rOoms. He declared this collec tion to be very valuable and in teresting.. , - He came to Chanel Hill the early part of the week. He also visited the Duke Universi ty library. Professor H. S. Dyer, music! director here, has made some in teresting announcements having to do with the music depart ment's plans for the approaching sessions. The department will move in to its new quarters on June 1. The old library building which has been renovated to house the music school will continue to be occupied temporally by the edu cation department until that time. Work will soon begin on the new music auditorium which will be directly behind and ad joining the old library building, but this will not interfere with the department's activities this summer in the section of the building now ready for it.

The system which has been in oper ation for ten years in California has resulted in" a tremendous growth in' piano study for col lege students and adults, who disliked the necessity of going through the period of children's exercises and pieces. Other teachers who will be come members of the depart ment this summer are Miss Ella M. Hayes of Newport News, Vir ginia, who will conduct some work in methods and sight sing ing, and Edwin M. Steckel of Gastonia, a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music, who will also do work in methods and related subjects.

Captain Archie Allen and Noah Goodridge came through tne preliminary Doxmg oouts at the Southern Conference tour nament at Charlottesville last night and the Tar Heel hopes for a third successive conference title are tied up in the perform ances of these two men in the second round of the tournament tonight and the finals Monday.
