Tonight at nine o'clock the student body will gather around the Old Well for a monstrous pep meeting, which will be similar to the rally held before the football team left for Vir ginia. The team will attend the meeting in a body, and immed iately afterwards will leave for a nearby town for the night to get away from the noise of the campus.. A crowd of 1500 stu dents, is expected to join in with the cheerleaders in a peppy re hearsal of the Carolina yells, and several short talks by prominent men are being planned. Judge W. J. Brogden of the North Carolina Supreme Court and a member of the class of '98 had been invited to make the principal talk of the evening, but it was learned last night that he will be unable to come. Coach Chuck Collins will have something" to say about-the game which should be of interest to the students. The University band will be at the meeting to lead the assembly in "Hark the Sound," the song of the cheerios, and will play several of their stirring marches before the meeting and between the rehear sals '6f the yells. " WMIace Shel-1 ton, president of the University Dormitory Cluband Jack Ward, president of the Interf raternity Council, have made known to the several organizations on the campus the hour of the meeting, and have requested that these groups give their fullest support to the rally. This is the method that was followed to organize the campus for the successful meeting before the Virginia game, and judging from present indications, the same support will be accorded the session to night. Team Holds Secret -Practice Behind barred gates at Emer son Field, with an air of secrecy overhanging the scene on every side, the football squad yester day did its last heavy training for the State titular game with Duke tomorrow. Only a final light polishing drill remains for today. Meagre reports emanating from the secret practice had it that the Tar Heels looked good. Coach Collins ventured the opin ion that the squad was in good physical shape, and that he ex pected them to be on their toes and fighting all the way tomor row. However,' Henry House and George Houston have been limping about the field all this week because of injuries receiv ed at Virginia but Trainer Chuck Quinlan expects to have them ready tomorrow. Of course Mr. Rockefeller could have built many churches with the money spent on one in New York, but doubtless he knows where it is needed most. y SPURTS IN SPORTS - By Jack Bessen i SING SWAN SONG IN CAROLINA-DUKE GAME -.. The "bg day" in North Caro lina football is only twenty-four hours away with both Duke and North Carolina primed for the battle which will decide the foot ball championship in the North State. By their showing over the Cavaliers, the Tar Heels will probably rule the favorite to re tain their title, but then Duke hasn't any mollycoddles to put in against the Tar Heels. Duke, in their last two games, has shown a gradual decline in offensive power although their defense is as good as ever. Their backs didn't show any great tendency to run wild in the 13-13 Wake Forest game, nor did they shine against a comparatively weak Washington and Lee out fit. However, the general opin ion seems to be that the Blue Devils didn't show anything to Tar Heel scouts, but will open up with everything in the game tomorrow. Because of their 41r0 victory over the Cavaliers, the Blue and White is open to a beautiful at tack of over confidence. If so, look out for a Blue Devil victory. But if Coach Collins has knocked any possible conceit out of our gridders, Carolina should win by two touchdowns. The selection of Alabama to represent the South and East in the annual Rose Bowl game at Los Angeles New Year's day came as no surprise to football followers throughout the coun try. The Crimson Tide climaxed a schedule, second to only Notre Dame in difficulty, by defeating the Georgia Bulldogs 12-0, and well do they deserve the Dixie title. Their hosts, Washington State, also closed an unusually difficult schedule with a victory over Villanova. This is the third time in the last decade that Ala bama lias been selected to play the Rose Bowl classic, and the Tide has yet to be defeated there, defeating the Southern California Trojans 7-6 and tie ing Stanford 7-7. On paper the Southerners appear to be the strongest and will be the favor ite to continue their unblemished record in Los Angeles. The tie between Alabama and Tulane for the Southern Confer ence championship again brings out the necessity of the revising the scoring system now in vogue the percentage basis. The Crimson Tide has beaten eight Conference foes, most of them tough, while Tulane has only played four Conference games, of which, only Georgia Tech and Georgia offered any opposition. On the basis of merit, the Tide certainly deserves preference over the Green Wave when the Dixie champion is selected, but instead there will be a tie be cause both teams have a 1.000 average.

Father Time's keen-bladed scythe will wreak especial damage among the Tar Heel backs. Captain Strud Nash will be the big loss. Nash led the touchdown makers against Duke last year, and for three seasons has consistently been one of the cleverest running, neatest-blocking, and best pass-receiving halfbacks in the South. And then there will be Jim Magner and Jimmy Maus, two of Carolina's best passing halfbacks of all time; Chuck Erickson, diminutive broken field ace who split honors with Magner in Carolina's 1928 victory over Duke; Henry House, driving fullback; and Pete Wyrick, heady and able quarter back over a three-year period. f The line losses will include three regulars and two reserves5 who have seen much service. Ned Lipscomb is being prominently mentioned for All-Southern center, while George Thompson and Aubrey Parsley have played left tackle and right end as regulars this year. Ellis Crew, tackle, and Shields Tabb, end, are the reserve lettermeh who are ending up their college careers. All these boys will wind up their eligibility period except George Thompson, who is a senior but has another year of eligibility, and may return if he desires.

Due to the intervention of Southern conference officials, the scheduled post- season game between the Carolina freshmen and Kiski school has been de finitely posponed, it was learned late last night. A game with the Tar Heel reserve, which has been set for two-thirty, will take the place of the yearling con test. . , The action resulted from the notification of authorities here from the headquarters of the S. I. C. that the f rosh here had played five games this season. " and by the regulations of the conference would not be permit ted to take part in another this year. - Authorities here, in booking the game, classified it as a po3t season meeting and were of the opinion that it would not come under the restrictions. Infrac tion of this rule calls for the sus pension from intercollegiate football of those who take part in the game.
