O, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1930 Costa Rican Student Impressed v With American University Life "Friend, artist, gentleman." Such is the worthy tribute ac corded to Senor Numberto Umana C. by a former profes sor. , y' After taking special courses-lit the Universities of "Laeeo Sa linos" and "Leco al Costa Rica," Umana traveled thousands , of miles to enter the University of North Carolina as a pre-medi-cal student. As a reporter to Ms native country he wishes to send propoganda, in favor of this school, urging his countrymen to come here to study. "Ameri can boys are so friendly," he says, " and the American girl, she is beautiful, but I cannot understand her. Her character baffles me." He is touched by the kindness accorded him since arriving here, and is amazed at the high calibre of the profes sion. "They too, are so friendly, and the instructors of Spanish speak the language better than i." ;; ; '.. . As a keen observer of the educational system he makes an interesting comparison of .the university of his country and the American university. "In my country," he explains, "the student body is organized into a association for the protection of student rights. The associa tions in various universities throughout Europe keep in con stant communication. If a pro fessor' proves unworthy, we make a big protest resulting in his being asked to resign. We as sert our- rights, and the associa tion is very powerful. This, in a measure, replaces your system of student government. , On holidays the students at tend bull fights instead of foot HOUSE SPEAKS AT HOSHYCOUNCIL Executive Secretary Talks on Friendship; Committees Ap pointed in Other Cabinets. Secretary of the University Bob House gave a short but im pressive talk on friendship at the second meeting of the freshman friendship council last night. Mr. House gave a number of the world - famous examples of friendships in his talk and stat ed that one of the most impor tant items of college life was the friendships created on the cam pus.

Ed win Lanier, self-help secretary, were appointed advis ors. Mr. Lanier gave a short talk on the purpose of the coun - Cil. , The sophomore and junior- senior cabinets met in short ses- sions for the appointment of committees.

Boxing is pro hibited by the government as in human, while bull fights are sponsored. I have never seen a football game." Umana, an orphan, entered the University with a lump sum of fifty" dollars. Is that not spunk? Is his example of zeal for know ledge not a worthy example for any American boy? He is an aspirant for the glee club, and plans to compile a composition on the comparison of the Ameri-can-university with the univer stiy of his country. This, he in tends to send to students in Costa Rica as a method of creating within them a longing to follow in his, tracks, and to pursue their studies in this country. He promises to present this com position to us for publication, and we wait with anxious anti cipation th completion of the work. "I find the English language very hard to speak, but much easier to understand. I have been in this country one year, and could not speak a word of English when I arrived." His English is good but his vocabu lary is limited, and he spends three hours on the preparation of a lesson to our one. "He sends each edition of the T.ar Heel to- friends in the schools he attended, so that they might learn something of the system used here, and keeps in constant communication with them in this respect. "There are no co-educational schools in Costa Rica," he con tinues, "though, there is a move (Continued on page three) FRESHMEN BEAR SOCIETY LEADERS Messrs. Albright and Medford Urge New Men To Join ; Bradshaw Speaks. "Come hither all you debaters and public speakers." Thus spoke Messrs. Mayne Albright and W. C. Medford, representing the Dialectic and Philanthropic societies respectively in fresh man chapel yesterday. Tuesday night both societies will meet and anyone wishing ' to join should appear at their places of meeting at seven fifteen. - Albright of the Di began the program by telljng something of the past history; of literary societies at Carolina. At one time, it seems, everyone enroll ed in the University had to belong.- During this time the two societies between themselves practically ran the school's stu dent activities. As time went on, however, and; the number in at tendance' here increased, they '" .r. now returned to their-, original , function, of that of purely li terary organization. . The second speaker, Mr. Med ford, told something of the value of these societies in. the lives of their members. "Besides the rather obvious ones, - such as training in saying what you making more friends,'' he said. After they had finished, Dean Bradshaw made a, short .talk, telling about some of the promin ent Americans who owe a large part of their success to early training in public speaking, and 'recommending these, societies to anyone at all interested. -T Year Book Business Meetin rr There will be an important meeting of the Yackety Yack business staff this afternoon at 3 o'clock.

PLANS MADE FOR RHODES CONTEST Many important changes have taken place in the Rhodes Schol arships. Commencing in 1930, the forty-eight states will be di vided into eight districts, com prised of six states each. Dur ing every year each state will compete. State committees will choose two representatives' to be sent to the district meetings. There the district committees will be allowed to select the four best candidates to be sent to Ox ford. Thus, in accordance with the merits of its nominees, a state may either gain two schol arships or none. Another new and important innovation begins in '1930. A Rhodes scholar will be allowed to choose between spending his third year at Oxford or at any other university in the world which he may select as best fit ted for the pursuit of his work. A second provision to this is granted. They will be permitted to take their third year immedi ately after their first two or af ter lapse of some years spent in working in the United-States. This year state elections will come on December 6 and the district committees will convene in a period of ten days to two weeks later. All students send ing applications should do this by October eighteenth ; appli cants from colleges and. univer sities should be 'chosen by Octo ber 11. Students selected in De cember, 1930, will enter Oxford in 1931. , V Chemical Engineers' Reception Chemical engineers and B. jj S. chemists are invited to a reception given by the A. I. C.
