STEADY GROWTH
Only Few More Issues Remain
Before Thirty-Ninth Year of
Progress Will Have Begun.
(By George Wilson)
Endorsing the continuance of
the Tar Heel as a daily newspa
per, the student activities com
mittee means to enable the pa
per vto maintain the steady prog
res that, has attended it since
its inception in 1893. This deci
sion, besides assuring the faith
of the campus Jn the Tar -Heel,
is welcomed also because of the
fact there will probably be no
step backward in thehistory of
the paper.
The Tar Heel was organized in
February, 1893, as a weekly pa
per, sponsored by the Athletic
Association. At that time there
were two existing . publications
on the campus, the Carolina
Magazine and the year-book, the
Hellenian. The magazine had
enjoyed an existence of almost
fifty years, and it welcomed the
arrival of a new publication that
could handle material and things
of interest that a literary maga
zine could not handle. In 'fact,
it had strongly urged the organi
zation of a newspaper, and in
1891 had extended its hand to
the unsuccessful Chapel Hillian,
a paper, whose existence was
very- short.
The Athletic Association, see
ing the need for a student news
paper and thinking of the bene-,
-fits it could derive f rom .if .In ih
- way of publicity, decided to start
a paper, which ii did by electing
the members of the staff and ap
pointing the editor and mana
ger. Scarcely a year later, another
newspaper appeared on the cam
pus, the White and Blue. Its
arrival was very noisy as it bit
terly denounced the Tar Heel as
impartial, favoring fraternities,
nrJ pvpti went so far as to de-
mand the withdrawal of frater
nities from the Hill. The Tar
. Heel, "on the other hand, ignored
the allegations of its rival, and
welcomed another paper on the
Hill. A year later the White
and Blue had been combined
with the Tar Heel.
The weekly Tar Heel, under
the direction of the Athletic As
sociation, existed without radi
al ontrp until 1909. Prior to
UU VUHUfiV
this time, it was realized that
there: was more news on -the
campus than could be accommo
dated by a weekly paper, but no
attempt to change from a week
ly had been made. In 1909 a
semi-weekly was tried and ex
isted until 1911, when financial
conditions forced the Athletic
Association to go back to a
weekly This is to be regretted
as it is the only step backward
the Tar Heel has made in its his
tory. TT
From 1911 to 1920, the Uni
versity was under a great period
of expansion and it was often
talked 'of making the Tar Heel a
semi-weekly, but the disastrous
experience of 1909 prevailed.
However, in 1920 the student
body voted for; a semi-weekly

Manager Smith Is Host to Staff of Daily at Advance Showing of
Story of Newspaper Life; Follows Usual Policy of
Entertaining Campus Groups.
" o : ' ''.v.--.
Last night E. Carrington
Smith, manager of the Carolina
theatre, entertained the editor,
managing editor, business man
ager, the city editors, the mem
bers of the editorial board, the
sports editor and his assistants
and some of the outstanding
members of the reportorial staff
of the Daily Tar Heel at a special
advance showing of the picture,
"Young Man of Manhattan,"
whitfh is to be shown at the reg
ular hours today. .
It frequently happens that be
cause a motion picture deals with
newspaper men and women and
press activities, many patrons
are scared off, classing the pic
ture as "just another damned
news story'
Those- of the Tar Heel staff
who saw the preview of "Young
Man of Manhattan" last night
can attest to the fact that the
picture has plenty of life, a
catching, well-developed plot,
good acting, and a connected se
quence of action and interest
which combine to form one of
the best pictures trf the year.
The. story asrun in the Sat
urday Evening Post a few
months ago proved one of the
most popular novels of the year.

feminine lead as Ann Vaughn,
New York columnist and fea

follows shortly. Toby has abil

focuses attention temporarily
upon the history of the Tar Heel
in its rise from the position of
a struggling weekly to that of
the only college daily south of
Washington and east of the Mis
sissippi. A factor of primary
importance in this story has been
the influence of the successive
young editors, budding journal
ists who have since become
famed in varied lines of activity.
