Writes About Trip To The University ??? By I.ALA SMITHWICK On Saturday, September 21, the Farm Life High School seniors were the guests of the University of North Carolina, at the annual high school day. We left Farm Life at &30 o'clock, chaperoned by Mr, Perry and Mrs. Martin. We went in three cars, driv en by Thomas Tice, Arthur Revels and Benny Daniel. By nine o'clock we had covered the distance between here and Wake Forest. There we made our first stop in order to look over the campus, which is very love ly. The dense, green trees and shrubs that fill the empty spaces between the large and numerous buildings cast an "eeree spell" on one, even in the daylight. We thoroughly en joyed the sight-seeing on the cam pus, and we had a delightful time while we were there. Before we left Wake Forest, we called on Mrs. Ray, who is a friend of Mrs. Martin. We had such a nice time while there that the group agreed that if all the peo ple living in Wake Forest are as nice as she is, we would certainly like to take up permanent residence there. Realizing that time was passing fast, we left Wake Forest about ten o'clock and headed for Chapel Hill. The scenery was so beautiful it was breath-taking. The rolling country, stretching far into the distance, cov ered with high trees and dense un dergrowth, the highway that lay be fore us, a smooth straight ribbon stretching over hills, each higher than the one before it, made us open our eyes wide in wonder. Nor were the hills and highway the only things that caught our eyes. It was amazing to see the different colors that mingled together in such de lightful hues along the countryside. The short distance between Wake Forest and Chapel Hill was covered too quickly, and in a short time we found ourselves a part of the huge mass of traffic that filled the Uni versity town. As soon as we entered the gates of the college, the size of the campus impressed us. Far above our heads the buildings towered, huge struc tures among the teres. We were giv en a small pamphlet at the gate and received a free ticket to the football game a short time later. While look ing the campus over and passing away the remaining hour until lunch time, some of our number talked through the microphone installed on the campus. It really was fun to lis ten to those "broadcasts." It was amazing to see how many of the sen iors one of the group knew. We finally decided that it was lunch-time and everyone seemed to want to eat at the cafeteria, so we went there. We stood in line for an hour and a half, but it was fun. One of the members of our group was very unfortunate and fainted while waiting In line. I don't think any of us enjoyed our lunch as well as we might had, had that member been with us. We came out of the cafe teria at two o'clock and after finish ing a hurried tour of the huge cam pus, we went down to Kenan Sta dium to see the Carolina-Appalach ian football game.

The stadium is built between two natur al hills. The valley is in the base of the stadium and the cement bleach ers are built on the hillside. Tempor ary bleachers were arranged at the east and west ends. Even the hot sunshine didn't melt the excitement in the crowd that had gathered?a crowd that was es timated to contain well over 25,000 seniors. The football game was en joyed despite the fact that the girls were more interested in the crowd than in the game. At the half, Df. "Frank UraTiam, DR. V. H.

Ceased Last year the United States im president of the greater university; Clyde Erwin, superintendent of pub lic instruction in North Carolina, and several other well known personali ties, extended greetings to the visi otrs at the University. Carolina won the football game, 56-6. We left Chapel Hill about 5:30. As soon as we got out of the crowd ed streets of the beautiful little town, we were able to think over all that had happened, and all of our seniors readily agreed, although we were tired .that we had had a won derful time all day. Those making the trip were: Vera Pearl Williams, Eloise Hodges, Rob ert Whitley, Cecil Brown, Lala Smithwick, Harry Peel, Leona Grif fin, Chloe Hardison, Bruce Peel, Car lyle Manning, Vera Ruth Griffin, Joe Daniel, Ben Daniel, Lillic Marie Revels, Thomas Tier, Arthur Revels, Mrs. Martin, and Mr Perry.
