Carolina Faces Big Game With Duke And Virginia Chapel Hill—With the State, championship, the leadership of the' Southern Conference and’ the Rose Bowl ambitions of one of the lead-, ing contenders at stake, the foot-1 ball mighties of Carolina ahd Duke will clash in the Duke Stadium' next Saturday afternoon at 21 o'clock in what is expected to be' the greatest’game the State has' seen in years. The near-neighbors and arch-ri vals have played some great games since they began fighting it outrun the gridiron in 1899. The 0-0 ties of 1930 and 1931, Duke’s 7-0 victory of last year, and the 18-0 upset Carolina scored in 1927 are eantes that won’t soon be forgotten. But this year’s battle is doped to1 transcend all past engagements in the classic rivalry and, judging 1 front the wide fan interest and hearty advance ticket sales, stands a gocd chance of breaking all at-. : tendance records for Duke’s 33,008 1 capacity stadium. j< The undeteated Duke team is re- i garded as the greatest in Blue Devil ( history. It registered' bkillkdnt;1 triumphs over Tennessee and Au- ‘ burn, among other teams, ranking 1 it with Georgia as one of the two great teams in the South, and mak- I ing it a leading candidate to rep- j resent the East in this year’s Rose Bowl engagement. The Carolina team met with re verses in its early season games against Southeastern Conference opposition although making a splendid showing against Vand'er-, bik and Georgia Tech. It looked j like a different team against State, and Wake Forest and although defi- j j nitely the underdog, is being pick-, | ed to give the Blue Devils a great: i battle. The Tar Heels will fight all the! harder because of the rivalry is ex pected to bring them to their peak for the Duke game. Carolina is the only team with a chance to cup Duke out of the Big Five cham-l pienship. The Tar Heels also have a clean record in the Southeastern Conference, and except for State College are the pnly squad that can prevent Duke from fin&iing its Southern Conference season un defeated.. This year’s game will match a long line of the most brilliant per formers in the Big Five Confer ence. Included are six Blue Devils and seven Tar Heels who started last year’s game and for whom this pear s battle will be a resumption if hostilities. They are Rogers and Wentz, ends, Crawford and Means, tackles, E. Dunlap, center, and Captain Laney, halfback, for Duke, and Brandt, end, Tatum md Collins, tackles, Barclay and ECahn, guards, and Woollen and Lhompson, backs for Carolina. Carolina has another great game scheduled with Virginia for the iome field on Thanksgiving Day. rhis is the oldest and most colorful rurkey Day Classic in the South nd regularly draws a crowd of 20, >00 or more to Kenan Stadium. Carolina won in 1931, Virginia in 932, the margin each time being me touchdown. Virginia leads he series with 21 wins, 13 losses, nd 3 ties, but Carolina has held he lead since the War.

An alarm came in. Less than thirty seconds after the signal was completed every light on the fire boat was ablaze, the big diesel engines started, the whistle blown and the lines cast off . .

The great day came—and silence. Not a sound was heard in all the land except the feeble cry of one old deaf man. Everyone else kept « quiet so that he himself could hear the others. Thus we see that one more ancient discovery may be credited to the resourceful Chinese—that of “letting George do it”—the most widely used of all their gifts to civilization. Today too many of us are waiting for George to spend it. i S{ I am no prophet. I have no standing as an economist. And I am not a magician despite my claim that a thing can be made larger by i taking away a part of it. What do I mean? The best way to insure capital is to spend a part of it when prices are low. . „ ... _ ;■» - The man who spends one dollar out of ten in making business better will find the nine worth more than the ten as values rise. i Mass achievement is ever a matter of individual and co-operative action. Napoleon got his army over the Alps a man at a time. We must rescale the peaks of prosperity the same way. The Now Is The Time To Buy Trail is our easiest path. Each one who can must spend—and millions ca'n spend if they but 1 -will. While we are waiting for the release of frozen funds to start a buying wave, nineteen out of every twenty dollars in 16,655 banks are j free to spend as we will. $33,695,974,000 are on deposit. This is 25 per cent more money than we had in all of our banks when we went into the World War to help save those across the sea. j Now we refuse to save ourselves. Depression will linger if we wait to spend out of income instead j of out of capital—and our capital may shrink while we wait. | Industry has signed with N. R. A. Some have signed until it hurts. ! The public should now sign with industry and spend some of its capi tal. The cow without pasture can give no milk. An industry without j sales can pay no wages. Feed industry. Buy something. Build some thing. Let us not forget this—better an hour of work than a dollar for dole. Capital is going to take care of the unemployed—either by buying what labor produces or by dole taxation. The choice is obvious, i And when we spend, personal selfishness should take a holiday. | The chisel should not replace the golden rule as a business tool. Those who use it will help prolong depression and in the end murder quality. Let’s take a look at the Blue Eagle. We see in its grasp the symbols of industry and action. The chisel is conspicuous by its absence. Let’s remember this whenever we do business with our fellow men. j And further, neither capital nor labor should attempt in times like S these to intrench itself at the expense of the common good. And no chisel should lurk in any political coat-tail. Let us have public, as well as private, unselfishness. Ours is the richest country in all the world. It is rich in money. It is rich in market. It is rich in a necessity of replacement and repair built up by the highest standards of living the world has ever known. Let’s inflate our confidence before we inflate our currency. Let’s remember that God helps those who help themselves and that Mr. Roosevelt is not likely to do more. He can’t throw the forward passes and catch them too. He expects each and every one of us to play ball with him. Let’s stop nursing depression. Let’s begin to count our blessings. Business is better. It is like a man with a trunk half way up stairs. It is but taking a rest before starting for the top. Let’s give it a boost. Buy Something! i ' Build Something! This message is not addressed to those who cannot spend or to those who now are spending. It is addressed to the man who is jingling the slacker dollar in his pocket, little aware that it is growing less ia purchasing power as prices rise.

Long Hospital To Be Public Owned The trustees of the Duke Foun dation have by resolution agreed to donate the sum of $30,000 toward the purchase of the H. F. Long Hospital, Statesville, by which pur chase the hospital will be transfer red from a privately owned to a publicly owned non-profit hospital. The hospital property, owned by Dr. H. F. Long, was recently ap praised at $90,000. The Duke Foundation will meet one-third of the appraised value. The remain ing two-thirds Dr. Long has gen erously offered as his contribution to a community owned hospital. The hospital was incorporated last spring and since then has been un der the management of a board of trustees, local citizens. When the property is formally transferred it will become a community owned hospital through the generosity of the Duke Foundation and Dr. H. F. Long. Being publicly owned the profits—if and when there are profits after operating expenses are paid—will be expended in hospital betterments. 'The management will continue through a board of trus tees and the hospital will be operat ed as it has been through the years, with Dr. Long as directing head. There will be no change in the ac tive staff.

History recorded the disaster as an "earthquake, followed by fire,” but Bill Wardell knew differently. Announcement of the picture sque Wardell’s death recalled among oldtimers his story of the 1906 Catastropfrb. Bill, a character even before the great event, had had a rocky night and on the fair April morning was looking for an eye-opener to quench the burning thirst in his' throat. Into the first barroom strolled Bill. He didnt have any money but he was certain either he him-! self or his razor would get him credit. but the bartender was obdurate and refused to wet as much as the bottom of the glass with gin un less Bill showed the color of his! money. "White man, you all better fix up that gin or I’m gonna pull down this hvar bar,” Wardell said. Even that threat failed to move the barroom attendant. So Bill grasped the bar. He! huffed and he puffed and he blew.1 With one final mighty tug he car ried out this threat. Down came the bar, the ceiling, the whole building. Dazed, awed, Bill climbed out of the wreckage. "Mah goodness, boss, I sure didn’t aim to get so rough,” he said apologetically. "Sakej alive, if I ain’t went and done made a mess for sure.” Outside Bill found more wreck age and great confusion. Buildings tumbled. "Lawdy, I didn’t know mah own strength,” he mumbled to a pass ing officer. Folks tried to tell Bill an earth quake and not the tug he gave the l bar caused the disaster. But for 27 years Bill remained unconvinc ed. "It was the watah pipes,” he explained. "They was all fastened together all over town. When I give that jerk l musta pulled »n the faucet in the saloon and bftmg down the-whole town.
