the
the
the
Basketball Resolutions
The committee appointed by
Athletic Association to look into
advisability of organizing a basket
ball team, which -will constitute a
branch of the Association's athletics,
report the following resolutions:
1. That basketball is a popular
branch of college athletics.
2. That all the leading colleges and
universities of the South have repre
sentative " teams and find the sport
equally as popular as any other phase
of athletics.
3. That since the University is sup
posed to take the lead in all phases of
college athletics in the State, it is only
natural that it should institute basket
ball as one of its regular phases of
athletics.
i4. That it will not be extra expense
to the Athletic Association but rather
a source of revenue, as it will be more
than self-supporting.
5. That we have the, material and
the coach, the only problem being a
place to play.
6. That since we have challenges
from many leading institutions asking
for games this season, which must be
replied to immediately, we advise thai
action be taken at once. '. ' ..'..!

After a Game Which Was Not Lacking in Features the
First Year Men Succeed in Last Quar
ter. Score 60
The freshmen got the better of the
sophomores, Wednesday, 60. The
youngest sons, however, had their
hands full all along the line.
The smallness of the score played
havoc with the dope sheet. 1914
was marked up for a three touchdown
win at least. The sophs, though, with
a new lineup, put Up about 50 per cent
better game than they did against the
juniors. -.
The first two periods were featured
by nothing but fumbles, the freshmen
pulling off most of them. The 3rd
quarter was fairly enhertaining. 1914
fumbled on 13's 40 yard line. Car
riugton got it tor the sophomores, and
had a clear field, but Blackmer threw
him on the 20 yard line. Manning
failed at a. drop kick and the Soph's
one chance was gone.
The score came in the final period.
In their own 10 yard line Smith, for
the sophs,! foolishly tried a forward
pass. Jones got it; Jones and Worth
rushed it to the 1 foot line and Jouesi
went over; Allen kicked goal. V
-; 1913 put up a fair game throughout.
Williams, Strange, Manning and Car
rington deserve" mention
..The first year boys didn't play up to
their standard and they were lucky to
win. Worth, Jones and Blackmer
played nicely. - .'

Dr. W. D. McNider Delivers Address to College Students
On the Duties and Responsibilities
of the Physician
At the regular Tuesday night meet
ing of the Y. M. C. A., Mr. R. , T.
Webb-'owinsr to the amount of work
he is carrying this year, handed in
his resignation as treasurer if the
Association.. Mr. Georere Graham
was nominated by, the nominating
committee to succeed him. Mr. . Gra
ham's nomination will he on the table
for a week and will then b voted on
at the meeting next. Tuesday Night.
After the business part of the meet
ing was over, Dr. MacNider spoke on
"The Functions of the Physiciau."
He prefaced his remarks by saying
that the physician whom he had in
mind was the ideal physician.
Dr. MacNider took up the functions
i . . ..
of this physician in three respects: His
function with regard to the individual,
his function with regard to the com
munity,' and his function as a scientist.
No other man comes into such close re
lationship with the individual as the
physician. It is his duty and privilege
to watch after men when they are well
and to put them on their, feet again
when they become sick. ; He often
helps a family by saving its bread
earner, and again he has the great
joy of saving a life. However the re
sponsibility is sometimes something
terrible. But this very responsibility
makesjth physician think more accu
rately and clearly, and makes him
marshal all the forces of science for
the saving of life.
. In his-relation to the community the
physician has two duties, a duty as an
educator and a duty in the prevention
of disease. Education is the greatest
factor in the prevention of disease,
and is especially necessary here in the
South where the ignorant negroes live
in places of unspeakable filth, . and
carry disease from these places to the
homes of white people for whom they
work. . The physician can help in this
education and again he can help in
the prevention of disease by introdu
cing measures for the draining off of
stagnant water, for the keeping - of
clean lots, and for the infection of the
cities. For all of these tend towards
the prevention of malaria and other
infectious diseases.
And finally the' physician has a
function as a scientist. He should be
a wide awake man, a man who notices
things and then tries to find the reason
for them' It is not necessary for htm
to go abroad in order to do research,
for the best places for this research
work is right here in the slums of our
large eities'where the physician can
not only do valuable research work
but he can at the same time do'- much
good in the relieving and the promo
tion of cleanliness.

Oxford, a preacher of unusual ability.
Professors Graham, Walker, Coker, Herty, and Pratt,
and Dr. Abernethy Make Addresses
on Community Topics
A meeting of more than ordinary
interest to the people of Chapel Hill
was held in the chapel on Wednesday
night. This was a meeting of the
Community Club, composed of the wo
men of the town, with a number of
men as honorary members. The ob
ject of the club is the improvement "of :
the toven school, the streets, sanita
tion, and other objects of a public
nature. A large and - representative
audience was present, the meeting be
ing presided over by Prof. E. K.
Graham. The women of the club had
invited several members of the faculty
and Dr. E. A. Abernethy to deliver
addresses.
Professor Graham opened the meet
ing, stating its purpose and expres'sing
his belief in its importance. He quoted
the well-known lines "Men must work
and women must weep," and then de
clared that this order of things has
been reversed in Chapel Hill; that the
women do the work and the men board
with them. He said that the Wo
man's Club had been working with
good sense and with splendid results
for the town. He quotod Dr. Wood-
row Wilson, who said "A man can not
love - his- country without loving ;:his .
community," and applying his saying
to the women, declared that they are
leading in good government by taking
up that which the men have neglected. .
In conclusion, Professor Graham as
sured the ladies that they had the
men's gratitude for what they had .
done, and that they would have their
sympathy and co-operation. . "
Professor Walker, who spoke next,
on the graded school, began by assert
ing that a community's school is the
index of the community's advance
ment. He told how all efforts to build
a good school failed until the Woman's
Club took it in hand, and how the
school has revolutionized in the last
three or four years since they became
interested in it. He declared that now
that they have put the school on such
good basis they can further help it by
getting the people of the town inter
ested in it. That the best way to im
prove the Community is through the
school, for the educated man is always
willing to do the right thing.
Dr. Coker then spoke for a few min
utes on the clothes of the body and the ,
clothes of the spirit. He declared that
the ways of women are peculiar, and
that he was as happy as a bachelor
had a right to be until they got after
him to make a speech. He said in
substance: We judge people by their
clothes, but the clothes of the spirit
are not always in our power. All the
ugly things of the spirit, however, are
of our own making. It is a universal
law of nature that things around us
react upon us. So it is, we make our
surroundings and our surroundings
make us. Our environment is a uni
form which tells what we are. We
cannot, therefore, overestimate ' the
importance of beautiful surroundings.
Dr. Abernethy next spoke, on the
practical questions involved in keeping
