Wilmer Hines,' former nation al junior champion, who won the state doubles title with Grant in 1931 and with Harley Shuford in 1932, and who this year won the state and conference singles titles and paired with Lenoir Wright to capture both doubles titles. Ed Yeomans, who was runner- up in the conference tournament in 1931, and Hinkey Hendlin, who paired with Yeomans to win the conference doubles title that year. Asked to suggest reasons for this remarkable record, John Kenfield, who has coached the Tar Heels for the last five years, mentioned the large number of courts available here, the good weather which" makes for long playing seasons, good material, and the hard and faithful work of the players.

The Daily Tar Heel maintained an extensive critical department which reviewed almost anything that turned up. Sunday morn ing almost invariably brought a broadside attack on the latest issue of the Carolina Magazine, while the critics apparently had a 'Roman holiday when the Buc caneer appeared. So bitter was the rivalry be tween the various publications a few years ago that frequently two or three stories condemning a sister paper would be run simultaneously. - The Yackety-Buc-Tar-Mag competition last fall may be considered a civil ized hangover from the days when each thought the other three heads of publications were morons and had no qualms at saying so.

It is pnly human for an editor to try to avoid see ing the work of a year torn to shreds in a two-column review. Discretion, tact, and kindness were completely lacking in the old-time reviews. Rather the policy was to. devise the great est variety of methods for pro claiming a product the worst ever. Individuals, concepts, and issues met a like fate. Cri ticisms gradually degenerated into undisguised mud-slinging. Out. of Business The dramatic organization on the campus came off poorest. The now defunct Wigue and Mask, which sporadically used to offer a musical production, was to a certain extent driven from the campus by the bitter ness of the critical attack. On a certain November eve ning in 1927 this group pro duced an opus known as the "Kalif of Kavak." The follow ing morning the Tar Heel greeted it with the headline, "Kalif of Kavak is Grand Flop According to Reviewer." The balance of the heading revealed " that the book was atrocious as were the songs and T ' - --' m some inexplicable way the Kalif forgot himself. The lead paragraph, which will give (Continued on page two) of students who will be given charms and other awards will be read out, thus speeding up the procedure and eliminating a waste of time. The student council is also planning to have a program of entertainment, of which Ed Mar tin will be in charge. It is in tended that the program will consist of a series of skits. Further Announcements Arrangements for the pro gram have not been completed as yet, but further announce ments concerning the perform ers secured for the skits will be made in a later issue of the paper. Among the leading awards to be announced Thursday night are : the Patterson Memorial award; the Deke trophy, which is given to the fraternity out standing in scholarship and ath letics; the Grail awards, which are given to the outstanding scholar-athlete in each of the four major sports, freshman athletics, and intramural com petition.
