The all-state preparatory school
elevens which we are publishing" in
this issue are the selections of Messrs
W.M.Gaddy and J.H.Manning- of the
Horner Military School. Both these
men graduated here last year. Mr.
Gaddy was athletic editor of the Tar
Heel last year and was a member o
the scrub football team several years
During- his stay in college there was
no man more interested in athletics
than Mr.Gaddy and no one perhaps,
who did more towards it's advancement.
Mr. Manning was a member of the
football squad for two years and was
one of the best ends we have ever had
Both these men have been with the
Horner football team this year and
have thus seen many of the preparatory
school teams in action. Besides such
qualifications as these for judging the
football ability of the players in ; the
state the judges have also asked the
opinions of the different coaches of the
elevensof the state. With such safe
guards as-these we feel safe in assert-
ngthat no one iu the state was better
qualified than these two gentlemen for
choosing the all-state Prep.eleven.
There are some ten or twelve men
iu the senior class who have done more
in the four years since they have been
in college towards the betterment of
campus life than any set of men ever
did here before. It would afford us
the greatest pleasure to publish the
names of these men in a roll of honor
that no honor roll of any institution in
the land could measure up to. But
these men are not seeking glory. They
-have been and still are actuated by no
lower impulse than the desire to pro
mote a cleaner.truer life.on the Univer
sity campus. Some of these men
have received honors at the hands of
their class-mates and of the University.
Others have gone their way quietly
and no one has suspected the power
behind that calm exterior. We believe
that these men ought to be proclaimed
but they themselves cannot see the
question vhat way and we think that
we are in their debt enough to acquies
ce to the wishes in this one particular.
If any one doubts the statement that
these men have accomplished so much
let him look about and compare condi
tions of life here in nineteen hundred
and six and in nineteen hundred and
nine. When the class of nineteen
hundred and ten entered college hazing
in all its most degrading forms was
thriving on the campus. This fall
the only attempt at hazing has been
a little dancing and singing aud this
only lasted a night or two. Also in
nineteen hundred and six and seven
card-gambling was fairly widespread.
Now such a thing is practically un
known. Up to last year it was common
for drunken students to keep the col
lege awake at night withtheir hideous
carousals on the campus. Now the
space about the well is as quiet at mid
night as at one thirty A.M. To one
who knows the inside workings of
such a reformation as this the reform
ers appear in their honor,but to the or
dinary out-sider that quiet man, who
seldom speaks and who al ways seeks
to obliterate himself, is simply a fellow
to meet and speak to and then forget.
But we are not the first to remark
that these silent, dreamy looking men
will bear watching. First think of
the power behind that calm, none of
it wasted in vain display, all of it stored
up for use when the time of need shall
come. These are the men to whom
the most honor is due. We publish
these few" words simply to show that
tho theirdeeds are not heralded on the
highways, yet in the eyes of t'jose who
know there are no greater men thn
these same slow, irresistible dreamers.
Vs the Tar Heel has always maintained
we need more experienced football play-
rs on our team. Our team always
show up well until they buck up agai
nst a crowd of veterans. Then the dif
ference in experience tells immediately
There is no necessity to give instan
ces of this. Any one who has followed
closely the record of our team for the
past three or four years can point out
numerous instances where inexperience
was the only thing that kept the Caro
lina team from winning. For instance
we have not had an experienced quarter
back here since nineteen hundred and
five. As a result we haven't had a
championship team since then. The
men we have may be all right when
they get the experience, but the Univer
sity of North Carolina cannot -afford
to put out a weak team three years
while watting for a quarter back to
develop. On the other hand consider
the fine material that is each year de
veloped in our high schools. The men
who chose the all-state Prep.elevens
claim that the man they chose forquar
ter-back is the peer of the best quarter
oacK, proDaoiy mat Virginia nas ever
had. And there is another man right
over here at Durham almost as good.
Now why can't we get such men as
these to come here.? The University
is recognized by the best institutions in
the South at which to get literary tra
ining. Then why do all these good
athletes go somewhere else to get their
education? It is simply because other
schools take pains to present them
selves to promising players in the best
light possible. Some we understand
go so far as to offer pecuniary induce
ments. Of course Carolina can never
stoop to such as this. However we can
exert ourselves to place the institution
before the eyes of the Prep.schools in
the very best light possible. It would
of course, be much better if we could sit
still and let the students make their
choice without any inducements from
any quarter. But all the other colleges

Venable took occasion to mention dra

stage only with strolling players. But
if we lake a glance at proceedings in
other great universities such as Har
vard and Chicago we may understand
what a very great influence the drama
It has come to our ears about the
last to which it comes we suspect that
there is much grumbling because we
insist on publishing the directory twice j
a week. These grumblers should re-l
member one or two things while they
mutter. In the first place the Tar
leel has been placed in the hands of a
set of men this year who have had no
experience in newspaper work. These
men are doing what they can to put
thru a new scheme in publishing the
paper. If every thing doesn't turn
out to suit you personally, why. try to
be at least a little charitable in, your
views. It's not every man that can run
a newspaper as you could. It would
also be well to remember that the Tar
Heel has never before been published
this last month of the year. The
University has never before put off ex
aminations till after Christmas and as
a consequence the month of December
thisyear will not be the month of ac
tivity it will doubtless come to be later.
Then one other morsel to feed your
thought. You are reading the , Tar
Heel twice a week this year and each
issue contains as much reading matter
as did a single issue last year. Some
times we are forced to believe that
Charles Darwin slipped up in one de
tail. He said that all ..men are des
cended from monkeys. We believe
that some have sprung from hogs the
more you give them, the more they
want, and they are ctenirilly grunting.
