Let's Be
Original .
It seems to be the general thing each year
for someone to 'write an editorial about walking
on the grass; Althqugli the subject is trite and
has been worked almost to death, nevertheless,
it is worthy of consideration. -. ... , , , ..
: Paths are not made in a haphazard manner.
The University; possibly employs a man, a. spe
cialist in his field; whose-lole ; duty it is to de
termine where and when paths should be built.
Naturally he puts the.paths where people seem
to want to walk -.Many; walkways : have , been
made in, the past few. year, . and many, beautb
f ul trees have been sacrificed to the fetish of
saving steps. But , no ..matter how manynew
paths v ate iaid down, , there is always a; number
of people who .would prefer to walk on the grass
rather; than on the paths. r Tliese people are
usually of the pioneer type: pathfinders, so to
speak. . ;;,v , -i.; ., . . .. v ;.;:;
It is for their- sake, ; that during:. the coming
year new "cut-offs" will .probably be built leadr
ing to the . library, ;,The foundation .for these
two walks has. already, been; laid by the students
who have neatly, trampled all ves&ge of, growth
from the places where they; want the .paths laid.
Several:.ne.w short icutsi .leading to Graham Me
morial have to be put in. to satisfy, the needs of
those students who , economize on f steps. : w ; .
, ; But no, matter how. many L paths are built,
thete will . always be. a goodly number, oi stu
dents whose perversity demands that they stick
to the grass. It is because these students make
it advisable, that ; the Tar Heel respectfully sub
mits the following suggestion to the adminis
tration, and particularly to the specialized path
builder: .....
Since the freshmen are rapidly wearing
down a sizeable bit of greensward oh their
way to and from chapel, that a sixcar as
phalt road be built leading from Memorial
hall to Murphey. The building of this road
would serve as a first step in the direction
of an all-asphalt campus, the first in the
country. " :V-
In addition to V giving the University wide
spread publicity as a forward thinking institu
tion, the innovation would allow us to skate to
and from class. J.B.L.
southern law and southern penal systems.
One of the most notable examples of this sort
of interference was the now famous "fugitive
from a Georgia, chain gang case." The refusal
of the governor of New . Jersey to permit the
extradition of an escaped convict who had im
posed upon his good nature with false represen
tations of the conditions in Georgia led to a gain
saying of the legitimate demands of justice that
may be of lasting injury and dangerous prece
dent. . . '"Si. . ;,;.i ;v ; -;: :;
The action of Judge Lowell of Massachusetts
in refusing recently to. permit a negro wanted
in Virginia from being returned to that state
on the grounds that he would there be unable
to obtain a fair trial is another link in the chain
of obstruction being constructed by northern
j ur ists against the execution of southern j ustice.
Virginia's name has always stood for fairness
and honor, and there is. no reason to suppose
that the negro would not be accorded as fair a
trial in the, Old Dominion as in "the' saintly halls
oi massacnusetts jusxice wmcn senx oacco ana
Vanzetti to death under the most dubious and
peculiar circumstances. 1 ,
. Still more "serious is the .point raised in - the
ocoiisDorp trial wnere enorcs were maae xo xnrow
put the verciicts pf the- Alabama courts on the
ground that no iiegroes were- allowed to serve
on ;the jury thus -precluding-itie possibilities of
a fair trial for. the negro youths. Every liberal
thinking . person, north ; or south, wants to see
a fair deal given the'- seven boys,' but- a violent
disruption t in the relationship; of the : two races
is something abhorrent; arid rightiy so', to every
one living in the south: It is easy for sancti
monious demagogues in' the north to prate about
equality ; they, do not live side by side with a
huge negro, population; nor has the north ever
distinguished itself for the love and mercy it
has extended to the negro.

the path of southern law and cease also in stir

a state in which he is' wanted has long been a
matter of course Were this not the case every
state in the union wouid soon become an asylum
for the criminals of other states with results
too obvious. to mention. Reprisals by Georgia
and Virginia would be .well justified and?. would
serve to teach the Moores. and the Lowells that
their gestures to the northern, press are , not to
be so easily bought, that broadcasted aspersions
on the good faith of sister states .will be met
with recriminations and interference returned

had the power to fill. There has
been some discussion and mis
understanding over this ruling.
It has been alleged that men who
are now in fraternities will be
unfairly deprived of a means to
stay in school. ,
First of all let this be under
stood ; no fratermty ... man who
has been holding a self-help job
is going to be deprived of that
job as long as , he is efficiently
discharging his duty, but no
man who has fraternity obliga
tions will be appointed to hold
a job filled by the self-help com
mittee.: r , v.-v,. -.,S;- :'..'''
Secondly has , the . self-help
committee any justification , for
the ruling? It appears that men
who can find money or. backing
to join . a , fraternity should , be
able to find money, to pay other
necessary :- expenses or apply
that money to schooling! instead
of fraternity fees. More cer
tainly does it , appear' that; men
who can find money for frater
nity, fees do riot need job's as
badly las jrienwhy,cantJ use the
job for, their "necessary expens'esV
IriT view of. these reasons the
self-help committee ..could not
conscientiously avoid . passing
this ruling. It is our opinion
that the committee is fully jus-
tified in its action. B.C.P. .

NON CAMPUS
MENTIS
By Joe SUgarmdri
Research Project
A long, rangy chap , stopped
an upperclassman cold with this
question : Can you tell me wheth
er the: English poet, Coolidge,
got a degree from; this Univer
sity? , ;;;r;.;..:-l' ,S:

zled things out it came to light
that the freshman English fac

Campus
Capers . s
For the first time in several years the stu
dents showed a whole-hearted interest in an
athletic team . by their cheering at the Carolina
Davidson football game last Saturday. Every
time they were called upon by the cheerleaders,
they-responded with cheers which were grati
fying to a campus which has claimed to be too
blase to be moved by anything short of an over
whelming catastrophe. However, a good deal
of the effect was removed from the cheering be
cause, of the activities of one small campus
group. .
While the Davidson band saluted the Univer
sity by playing "Hark the Sound," two neo
phytes of the order of the Sheiks were forced
by members of the organization to prostrate
themselves and shout their characteristic cry of
"Allah is almighty." Obviously these men were
reluctant to perform, but they had to obey the
rules which were given them.
Besides detracting from the spirit shown by
the student body at large, they showed a spirit
of impoliteness to our visitors which was most
certainly not befitting the conduct of a Carolina
student. If our opponents were polite enough
to play our school song, the Sheiks should have
at least remained silent during its rendition.
The Sheiks, as well as the two other like or
ganizations, the "13" Club and the Minotaur s,
have been asked before to show xtheir worth on
the campus. . So far the only evidence they have
shown is their ability to make fools of their
neophytes and nuisances of their respective or
ganizations. F.P.G.
Obstruction
Of Justice
Within the last year or so southern justice
has come in for a great, share of adverse criti
cism as well as no small measure of actual inter
ference from officials and judges in the north.
These men are in many cases totally unfamiliar
with the situations they so bitterly decry and
are merely seeking publicity by taking a noble
stand against the injustice and. inhumanity of
Conie to Life,
Legislators!' - - v -
Repeal of the 18th amendment is now being
taken for granted. - "Defenders . of the Faith"
such as James K. Shields, superintendent of the
Anti-Saloon League, Ella Boole, and CamMor
risoh have been reduced to the comparatively
harmless position of piteously and cringingly
begging for what they term, "fair play."
But what is to come after repeal ? There have
been few statements from Mrs. Sabin, Jouett
Shouse, or Alfred Smith on this subject; even
ess has been issued from the White House. Ap
parently, the chief concern of these ardent wet
crusaders is to kill prohibition without ever once
worrying as to what funeral oration will be de
livered over the corpse.
It is reasonable to assume that if the leaders
have failed to consider and issue plans for liquor
control, certainly the members of Congress and
the state legislatures have given the matter even
less thought.
If Prohibition is repealed and a general free-
for-all liquor policy supplants it, much of the
admirable work of the national administration
will be undone. Those who can remember pre-
Volstead days and those who have had it vivid
ly presented to' them dread anything even re
motely smacking of the saloon, the close hook
up between politics and liquor, and general un
restrained dispensation.
When-beer returned the racketeers and poli
ticians showed their hand by attempting to con
trol its manufacture and sale. In certain states
they were checked ; in others they succeeded in
making the government play puppy to their in
terests.
The fate of beer in many cities and states
throughout the country may very well . await
liquor on the day of repeal. At present that re
sult seems inevitable unless the champions of
repeal seriously deal with the issue of the liquor
aftermath.
It devolves upon the men and women who have
worked so earnestly to rid the nation of a bitter
fifteen-year practical joke to preclude the pos
sibility of an even more acid prank being played
on a nation which has made an unenviable record
in the matter of being the butt of fanatics'
antics. J.S.

GRADUATE CLUB
DRAWS UP PLANS
FOR YEAR'S WORK
The Shirley Graves Graduate
club of the University gets un
derway with an early program.
The entertainment committee
under the chairmanship of Tur
ner Logan is considering on
staging its first graduate club
dance on Saturday, October 6.
The plans are still tentative.
Last fall a great deal of at
tention focused on the graduate
club when it was discovered that
they were conducting an in
formal marble tournament. This
event proved;. to be quite a no
velty and it can: be said with a
feeling of certainty that no oth
er graduate club in the various
universities -. of this , country
has instituted such recreation
for its members. It was mani
fested to be to the members an
interesting and entertaining di
version from; the regular routine
of their . daily work. . With
weather permitting the club will
again stage such a tournament
Due to the fact .that the con
stitution of the graduate club
has been considered inefficient,
ai committee was elected at the
last meeting to: draw up a new
one. It is composed of Arnold
W i 11 i a m s, chairman, H. B.
Whitmore and W. G. Carlton.
No definite plans have yet been
made . concerning the bridge:
tournament.. Much enthusiasm
has been shown by the mem
bers and as the club , contains
some of the best players on the
campus it should prove to be an
interesting event;
