The students of the University who attended the Thanksgiving1 game wish to express their thanks to the Virginia Alumni Association at Rich mond, for the excellent provision made for their entertainment on Thursday night. A large number of students attended both the theater party and the gertnan. These entertainments form a most pleasant feature for the Virginia and Carolina men who at tend the Richmond games. With the football season a thing of the past, and . with baseball several months in the distance, what better time could be found for arousing inter est in basketball and for placing the srame permanently among our sports? It has such a place in nearly all insti tutions like ours. Judging from the college papers, it is a popular game wherever instituted. Many times has basketball been dis cussed as a game we ought to have; more than once attempts have been made to establish it; resolutions have , boen written settiny forth the desira bility of the arame; but, so far, the basketball team has not become a re ality. There seems to be only one reason why it has not, viz., the ina bility of those interested to secure a suitable place to play. Are we really under the handicap of not having a fit place to play a game of basketball, or are we simply neglecting the places that we do have? .. : Certainly no one could wish a better place for basketball t'jan , the gymna sium. : Of course the gym is primarily for other uses, and basketball could not be allowed to interfere with the regu lar gym exercises. But the gym is used for nothing at night, and basket ball could be practiced then, if no day period could be allowed. With the players wearing .. gym shoes, . as of; course they would, the building would, not necessarily be damaged any more! by a game of basketball than by the daily gym work, j However, if - for any reason it is im-: practicable to have the game in the; gym, there is anotner possible place.: What would be the objection to play ing in Memorial Hall? At , present, the building is used only on two or three occasions each year. To play there would not conflict ' with any other use to which the building is put. Owing to the purpose and associations of Memorial Hall as a kind of monu ment to distinguished alumni and ben efactors of the University, as well as a. place of assembly, it is, perhaps; re- fonably equipped express trains now garded as being of a more sacred Char- operate, bringing the section south of attpr ih a nth nfh or Vmii miners fin the the Sound, and as far south as New camnui. hut 4iirAWU"Wnn1r1 h nn dps- Bern and, Beautort. into closer com' ecration of the place to play the inno- mercial and social relations. cent game of basketball there.

Durham, ix t: North Carolina eight hundred students. or the use of these students there are sometimes five, but often two, hot water shower baths. Is it not, then, rather trite 'to say that bath service is inadequate at the University? It is deeply logical, however. A student goes to chapel in the morning. He hears a talk on san itary conditions. In the afternoon he goes to the Gym for a bath. After standing around in the cold air for fif teen minutes, he finally gets a place. The water one moment trickles slowly down in tantalizing- cussedness: the next it gushes forth deliciously but nine times out of ten cold. The sides of the ; bathing booths are covered with a foul, greenish brown fungus of an unknown species. It may be harm less, bnt it doesn't look so. And HOW.

By the addi tion of these dining cars quite a novel opportunity is afforded passengers While comfortably seated in a parlor car, they can enjoy their lunch and at the same time pass over the famous Aiucmarie-oouna linage, aDOUt six miles in length, and said to be the longest bridge over navigable waters in the world. Passing the historic and pretty little town of Edenton at the lunch hour, the shores of the Albe marle is reached, and for six miles the route leads over this wonderful engin eering project of modern times to the little town of McKackey's Ferry, but which was changed with the passing of the old ferry's steamer, "John W. Garrett," that plied the waters of the Albemarle for years. No other road in the country could serve meals to its patrons under such unusual and novel surroundings.
