All mem- lastic year, or "as soon after as room 210, Graham Memorial, CEMENT MARKER WILL BE PUT AT BASE OF TOWER Latest Construction on Campus Is Part of National Triangular Measurement System. Students and professors walk ing across the campus yesterday were surprised to find that a huge steel tower was being placed in the center of the cam pus, between South building and the library. Little groups of stu dents stopped all during the day to inquire about this atrocity, but moved slowly on, much re lieved when they were told that it would be removed in a few days. This tower is being erected by the United States, Coast and Geodetic Survey as a part of the triangular system used in map ping the country. Two other similar towers have been placed in this vicinity, one at Duke University and the other at Hillsboro. The exact distance between these towers was deter mined by a group of army en gineers who came through here several weeks ago. These en gineers worked with steel tapes and obtained the measurement with an error of only a sjnall fraction of an inch. Lights Will Form Triangle An automobile headlight will be placed in the top of the tower and for several nights will be di rected toward the other stations nearby. Observers will measure the angles between these stations to the fraction of a second, and in this manner a triangle will be formed. After serving its pur pose here the tower will be mov ed to another location. The purpose of these measure ments is to furnish a base to which future surveys and boun daries will be anchored. Similar triangles are being formed all over the country with the lati tude and longitude accurately figured, and these points will serve as permanent fixed bases to which all land marks will be "tied." A concrete marker will be placed in the spot now occu pied by the tower. ' UPPER CABINETS HEAR BRADSHAW AND COMER Addresses by . Dean F. F. Bradshaw and Harry F. Comer, Y. M. C.

Starts New Schools Under Chase's administration at the University of Illinois a college of fine and applied arts and a school of physical welfare were added to the University, disciplinary powers were vested in the university senate, and an economy program was carried through which cut down the op erating costs of the school by twenty-two per cent for the cur rent biennium.

FETZER BEMOANS STUDENTCONDUCT AT STATE MATCH Director of Athletics Speaks te Freshman Y Cabinet Urging Better Sportsmanship. Speaking before the freshman friendship council Monday night, Coach Bob Fetzer deplored the unsportsmanlike conduct' of Uni versity fans at the U. N. C.-State. boxing meet last Saturday, and urged that all members of the group use their influence in curb ing a possible recurrence of the performance. "The University," said Coach Fetzer, "has always prided itself on its sportsmanship. Cases of ; complaints by visiting teams of Carolina's lack of sporting qual ities have been exceedingly rare. It is up to everyone on the cam pus to cooperate in re-establish ing here that same spirit of good sportsmanship which so ob viously was disregarded last Sat urday." Olympic Sportsmanship Coach Fetzer cited instances of real sportsmanship that oc curred last summer at the Olym pic games at Los Angeles, where he was a spectator. The com plete lack of underhand methods and the strict compliance with the Olympic oath was marvelous, said the University athletic di rector. He went on further to say that the fact that spectators disagree with the decision of the referee does not call for any vocal manifestation on their part.
