''Entered as second-cJass matter October 20, 1909, at the post office at Chapel Hill, N. C, under the Act of March 3, 1879.' ' Printed by The University Press, Chapel Hill.

There has been little, if any, prao tice of the college songs this year l ne new men nave scarcely nad an opportunity to learn and appreciate them, they (the songs) ' have been given such little attention. We need as nas been saia Detore, a' common . . . . . . . meeting place which will attract stu dents in their idle moments, a place where they would gather to loaf, talk, and sing, instead of '-hanging around" the post office and stores. Often a large number of men will while 'away a few minutes by singing 'while wait ing in front of Commons Hall for the doors to open. If an informal gather ing similar to this could" be; Wrought about at some convenient loafing place for a short while, say, after supper, the college songs would mean more to us than they do. About such a place, also, would naturally crystallize the college traditions and customs, and it would I e a means of inspiring -college spirit. Last year the college songs were practiced a few times in the chapel period. While practice of this kind necessarily lack's the informal and spontaneous freedom of the cam pus song, it is decidedly better than no singing. . Speaking of college songs, it would be a fine thing for some of the stu dents who write verses to try their hands at writing a new sons:. About the only songs we ever use are '"Hark the Sound" and "I'm a Tar Heel Born." We all like these, but there is always the possibility of a better one. To write a song that would worthily ex press the Carolina spirit would be an enviable achievement. inu the most interesting" items are often not on the bulletin boards. If for instance, you hear of a big appro pnation to be made for the University don't try to keep it a secret. It wil nnally out, anyway. If it is rumored that a plan is on foot to put in a suffi cient supply of shower baths, all o which will furnish warm water at the same timenot only the three or four nearest the boiler; or if a linotype ma chine is to be put in at the printing office and bleachers at the athletic field, why, let us into the secret. EXCHANGE CLIPPINGS The Tar Heel is glad to receive contributions of any news items which the editors fail to get. A request is made that any item to be contributed should be handed in before it ceases to be news. If a few men hold a meet ing in the top of the Y. M. C. A. at eleven o'clock at night, without hav ing previously hinted their intention, by bulletin board or otherwise, and afterwards mention the fact to no one, they can hardly expect to see a full account of the proceedings in the next paper. . When anything happens that should receive notice or that would make the paper more interesting, any of the men . whose names appear at the top of this column would be glad if you would mention it. This, of course, applies to the things whicu are not posted; The University of Illinois claims first place in enrollment of Chinese students, having a total of thirty-five The National Lumber Association has completed the fund of $100,000 promised to the Yale Forest School. Yale recently dedicated a new $70, 000 swimming pool, the gift of An drew Carnegie. The pool holds 160, 000 gallons. : Six thousand dollars has been do nated to the University of Texas for the establishment of a Department of Domestic Science. William K. Vanderbilt has donated $150,000 more to Vanderbilt Universi ty. The donation is to be used espe cially for the Medical and Dental Departments. Preliminary registration figures in dicating that the total enrollment for the year at the University of Wiscon sin will exceed 5,50U have just been made public. In a varsity football game played between the University of Oregon and the. University of Puget Sound, Octo ber 22, the -former team ran up the arge score of 150 to 0. A massive silver-gray tower, 150 feet nigh and 40 feet square, costing $100,000, is to be erected at Princeton as a memorial to former President Cleveland. lu connection with the Department of Public Sueakinjr, Vanderbilt has public service bureau which fur nishes to all who desire, copies of briefs on current topics made by the students of the department. This is a stanza from one of Van derbilt's new songs: Air: "What's the Matter With Father." What's the matter with Vandy, She's all right; What's the matter with Vandy, full of fight; She beat the Indians, tied old Yale, She '11 soon be twisting the tiger's tail; What's the matter with Vandy, She's all right. From College Topics: Tomorrow evening at 7:30 o'clock, on the northeastern steps of the Ro tunda, every student of the University is going to assemble to show his belief in the team that put up such a gritty fight against Carlisle last Saturday. This is the same team that , will beat Georgetown and Carolina. Doubts are being entertained in other places that such will be the case, but the" (Virginia team has the necessary spirit and it will be reinforced by the big send-off the students are going to give the players. Walter Camp is now in complete charge at Yale, having deposed Ted Coy, the All-American player, and the star captain of last season. Up until this year Yale has always observed as routine a trip , to New York, the night before the game, and the balance of the journey thence to Princeton in a private car. Walter Camp decided today that the men were not sufficiently advanced to get this holiday. The men will leave Thurs day, going direct to a , point near Princeton, where practice can be in dulged in. On Friday and Saturday morning they will scrimmage on the Princeton grounds to get accustomed to them. Camp said today that, with very hard work, Yale may win Satur day; but the prospects are not bright. Raleigh Evening Times. . .
