A THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Genius- is exactly the opposite' of
what clever people of today think it
is. It arises in great, simple persons
and masters them and urges them on
to ends that are beyond any that the
conscious mind can aim at or attain
Alfred Noyes.
For Safety's
Sake
The drive of local police to
curb operation of automobiles
with improper lights should be
extended to include flagrant and
frequent violations of parking
ordinances These ordinances
have been provided to facilitate
the handling of traffic and to
prevent accidents possibly with
serious consequences.
On the campus and down town
the problem seems to have been
solved. But around the Carolina
Inn observance of the signs
placed at proper places; is lack
ing. The worst violations occur
in the driveway leading to the
garages and to the Cafeteria.
Due to the narrowness of this
driveway a large sign has been
placed where everyone entering
is forced to see it. With both
pedestrians and automobiles us
ing the same driveway disre
gard of the parking sign is like
ly to cause accidents of a serious
nature. But it seems that some
of the patrons of the cafeteria
euner ao not . see tne sign or
choose to exercise the right of
"first come, first serve."
Those who ' have been guilty
not only of disregarding a, pre
caution taken to prevent acci
dents but also to allow free ac
cess to those using the garages
should take thought before de
liberately parking in the drive
way again. Too often a move is
inaugurated to compel obedience
oi oramances alter a serious
accident. But that is "locking
the door after the horse has been
stolen." We prefer an effort to
observe these regulations to a
campaign for stnctenforcement.
A New v
Movement?
Rumors have been circulating
throughout the student body re
porting some of the University
authorities as starting a move
ment for the abolition of auto
mobiles, at Carolina. Although
of doubtful authenticity, this re
port has brought forth much
expression of opinion. '
. The numerous and tragic ac
cidents near Chapel Hill in re
cent years have been seen by
many as a call for some action.
However, no definite, rather
known, move seems to have been
made as yet. -
If such .a step is to be attempt
ed it will undoubtedly create
quite a bit of publicity in the
state about Carolina probably
of a favorable nature by the
parents, but otherwise with the
student population. Some of
the students at ""Carolina find
automobiles a necessity rather
than a luxury, as many look at
it. These same students will no
doubt advance strong arguments
supporting such statements,
which will very likely result in
a few exceptions to the rule if
it should be adopted.
Such an action towrards isola
tion of the University students
from the rest of the state is not
new, but rather would be an
amendment or supplement to the
ideas of those who chose the site
of the University. The present
site was said to have been chosen
for the state university because
ci its isolation, and this ac
counts largely for the railroad
not having come any closer to
Carolina than it has.
State action has barred pool
tables, bar rooms, and dance
halls of the old type, and now
many wish to take away the
automobile which they think acts
as a connecting link between
such pastimes. Arguments ad
vanced by several of the sup
porters of such an action have
centered around the raising of
scholarship, lowering of ex
penses, improvement of school
spirit, and public safety.
A decided protest would ac
company attempts at the abol
ishment of automobiles at Caro
lina. If such an action is taken,
more adequate means of modern
entertainment must be provided
the more socially inclined stu
dents who seem to be the chief
offenders in the so-called abuse
of the "Auto at Carolina."
No other schools of impor
tance in North . Carolina have
such a rule, but Carolina has led
in many movements. "It can .be
done" and the adoption of such
a policy would probably greatly
influence similar action else
where in the state and south.
Although such action would
prove highly inconvenient to a
number of students at present,
there are strong arguments that
could be presented in favor of
such a move or vice versa.
beauty is secondary to efficiency
and speed, it cannot be expected
that an undue amount of time
will' be spent in following cir
cuitous routes about the campus.
If pedestrians do not adhere
exactly to the areas laid out as
walks, possible seme of the
blame may be laid to the build
ers of the walks. The remedv
seems to lie in sacrificing our
aesthetic sense on the altar of
progress ( ?), and either erect-4
ing fences or building walks to
replace the less attractive paths.

Readers' Opinions
A BOOST FOR LACROSSE
A Suggestion '
To Walk-Builders
Many and eloquent have been
the editorials appearing from
time to time in J;he Daily Tar
Heel asking readers to refrain
f rom walking on the grass. Yet,
judging by the numerous bare
and bald spots prevalent over
the campus, the effect has been
insignificant. j
There are, as in all cases, no
doubt two sides to this question.
In the first place, many of the
walks have been laid out as a
result of the gradual appearance
of paths across sodden pprtions
of the grounds.' As examples of
walks begun in this fashion may
be noted the one in back of Mur
phey, and the one from Old West
toward the unfinished music
building. Were it not for such
clues as these unconscious ex
pressions ' of public will, the
walk-builders would not fully
realize and provide for the nec
essary accommodations.
In this modern day, when
Editor Daily Tar Heel :
I' read with pleasure the un
signed sports write-up "Popu
larity of Lacrosse Increases" in
your issue of April 27. Per
haps' your writer would be in
terested in "The Unequaled'
Thrills of Le Jeu de la Crosse,"
Literary Digest, June 15, 1929,
p. 60, and the description of La
crosse by Donald W. White in
The Sportsman, Boston, which
inspired the Digest's article. If
he should be, I could supplement
this material.
Except the thrills of boxing,
those of Lacrosse, to my taste,
are unequaled. From the spec
tator's viewpoint," basketball
and hockey are the nearest kin
to lacrosse. Psychologically the
kick is pretty much the same in
all three. (A difference: as la
crosse is a spring game the
spectator doesn't freeze). Con
tinuous movement on the field.
No wind-ups, no hurdles no
nodes and loops; just . one big
loop." Usual intermission, of
course. And out of doors in the
spring. r
A decade or so back, I sug
gested that Carolina , take up la
crossethe best team game
played on foot. More recently,
Professor Caldwell urged its
adoption, in a Tar Heel of sev
eral yearsago. I notice Geor
gia now has a team in the field.
fear the sport faded out at
Virginia, where it was started,
if I am not mistaken, by a class
mate of mine. Maryland plays
the game as a major sport.
Recent athletic developments
here show the need of lacrosse.
Reasons: (1) It would use our
three hundred thousand dollar
stadium in the most beautiful
season of the year ; (2) It would
pay; for once it takes hold,, it'
