Krn'fnl '0 -1 1"" i and We would .recommend-to the careful observation of the persons who, through the medium of the press have assailed foot-ball in all its forms asji fous game, the' articles which ap-j peered' in the' last issue of the j Forum from . the pens of the dis-j tinguished 'presidents of leading ; Universities, and one from the i pen'of a leading physician of New York. The views of the Univer- j versity accord fully with those ex- j pressed by these gentlemen.! There is a certain element of dari ger attached to all athletic sports,, and this has increased in regard to - n - . 1 ' 11-' c 1 ' i . ..' 1 1 loot-oaii or late more man, any other game. The features of the " game ; that have caused this' x-. creasejare mainly the. mass system of flying wedges and interference.' j These can be abolished as easily': as they were, instilled and they shouldbe.' If this is done and. the foot-ball that was played .five ; yearsago, be, played in the 'future j then we see no reason why any.) fault should be found. . with 'the j game.",. The game' is'-hot brutal j anv. more than tennis; it is rpugh-' er and requires greater . powers of j endurance,' but , there, is nothing! brutal in the game . nor anything that T savors . of ' .brutality Of i course sometimes men are hurt, ! but this is liable to occur in swim: ming, gunning, base-ball, run ning or any other . out door sport, j There is no reason to stop these amusements simply because there j is an element of danger annexed I to the enjoyment of them. ; J Iciety passed" a" resolution which , will enable any member ; of . the Sodety "to witlidtawr ' The Uiii : versity authorities say that a man .. ! must join one of the two : Socie ties here, it is immaterial which, 3HA8.BfKKRviLiB,!just so he joins. This should J' T' 1UG"' : have been" abolished : long -since, : - .si 50 1 and now since the Dialectic lias - .- - LOO U-norl 'if rnt inn1 with itk niffri- bers,' whether they remain as such or not,' remains for the Trustees to abolish that clause of Univer sity regulations, compelling the .students to join the Societies.' If it were optional with the students as it should be, then only those students who had a desire for such work as the society, encourages would join. Theyould : join from a desiretar tbrniseWesi for their imp'rovemement. Such men as they would make the societies what- they heed to be a credit to the University. ' Since the attendance' at the University has-increased so rap idly, the need "of hew dormitories becomes more evident. We have over four h undred ' students' and there is room for only 325 of them in the buildings; This makes it necessary ' for a number of stu dents, who would rather..: be iii colleger-to room in, the .village. We have no doubt that Dr.. Win ston recognizes this fact as mttCh as any one and": what we (want him to do, is to go to work at the next legislature and get what the University needs - and at present it needs nothing more than dor maories and a decent appropri ation; . V . The Staff of the Tar Heel re joices in the fact that after so long ' a. time the editors . of the A tmual havt ; been elected,- .and they in turn -have perfected the organization of the editorial board. ,.Let them go to work; in earnest,- and get out van Annual that will be a credit to the Uni versitv and her fraternities. , v 'Probably no question has ex cited the attention of the'students of tlie University" of late' years more than that of compulsory so ciety going, unless it be compul sory attendance at prayers.

This is no enviable reputation to have amongst other colleges It's a fact however as above stated It's a shame and reflects much discredit on the fraternities that such" be the case.
