A wmtmu&i- 1 Will Take Charge of Diamond Artists This After . noon. Coach .Charles E. Clancy arrived last night. The new coach is a big, fine looking- man with baseball written all over him. He had little to say excepting that he was glad to hear that the infield material looked exceed ingly good. The coach desires every man who is seeking a. try-out to meet him ; at the gym at 2:30 this afternoon. All can didates for the team should be on hand. Athletic Association Meets T he Athletic Association met Sat urday afternoon for the purpose of con sidering the adoption of the proposed amendments to the constitution. It was found that a quorum was present, and business was immediately under way. Some very heated discus sion was provoked by certain clauses in the amendments, particularly by the one relating to the payment of mana gers of the teams. C. L. Williams, manager of last fall's football team, spoke in favor of remunerating the managers for their services. Mana ger McCulloch, however, of the baseball team for the coming spring, vigorously opposed the measure, con tending plenty of capable men could be found to do the work for the honor alone. Mr, McCulloch seemed to voice the sentiment of the meeting. In the end, the proposed amendments were adopted, with the exception of the section relating to the election of managers, and that concerning the payment of managers. In future, managers will be elected just as be fore, and will receive nothing for their services beyond the honor and the trips they get. It is understood in Chapel Hill that the bill recently introduced before the legislature by General Carr providing for the removal of the present railroad between Venable and University in order to make possible the construc tion of an electric line between Dur ham and Chapel Hill will not be pressed. The understanding with which the petition to the legislature from nearly every citizen of Chapel Hill was secured was that that the transportation rates which; hold at present to Chapel Hill should remain unchanged over the new line. Infor mation comes that freight rates over the new line will be higher than than the present ones. For instance, through freight from New York would have to be paid to Durham, a trans; fer made to the electric line, and then an additional rate paid from Durham to Chapel Hill. For this reason it is thought that the business men of the village will, cease to favor the new bill. . Furthermore t h e University would save little by the change. The expense of transfer in Durham and transportation from Durham to Chapel Hill would at least equal the drayage charges from the present station at West End. Is a Strong, Well Balanced Team. Five Prep Schools Represented. The Tar Heel's all stale prep eleven has at last been chosen. 'This line-up would have been published at an earlier date but satisfactory dope in regard to the various prep players has been hard to get. Roach Stewatt, the veteran player and coach, picked the team. Left End Taylor (Wilmington High School.) This player is con sidered by all who have seen in action to be the best all round prep end in in the State. He tackles superbly, has good speed and knows what his brain is made for. Weighs 130 pounds. - Left Tackle Walton (Horner Mili tary School) This ; player is strong and husky. He is particularly good on the defensive, breaking through time and again to threw the runner for a loss. Weighs 170 pounds. ' ! Left Guard Hinson (Donaldson Military Academy. ) This man would be a tower of strength in the line. Has plenty of fight and is fast for his his weight 190 pounds. Center Bruner (Raleigh High School) He is an exceptionally ac curate passer, and gets down under points in fine style. Weighs about 160 pounds. ; ",; ": " ""- ' Right Guard Faust (Greensboro High School). This man, although playing center, would make an excel lent guard. He showed plenty of ag gresiveness in all of J his games and has the necessary weight for his posi tion. Weighs 170 pounds. Right Tackle Denton (Raleigh High School) He would make an ex cellent running mate for Walton, During the past season, he showed up well at opening for the back field and the opposing backs found it al most impossible to make a gain over him. Weighs 165 pounds. Right End Cook (Donaldson Mili tary School). He is fast and pos sesses a fine head. Gets down well under fants, receives a forward pass nicely and is an extremely good de fensive player. Weighs 120 pounds. Quarter-back Coffin (Greensboro High School), For this position Mc Fall of Donaldson, Jeffrey of Raleigh, High or Parsley of Wilmington High would all make good men but every thing considered, Coffin of Greens boro High is, a shade better. He is light but extremely fast, is the best prep punter in the State, executes the forward pass nicely, and runs his team with good judgement. Weighs 120 pounds. Left Half-back Burnette R. (Wil mington High School) while he play ed full for Wilmington he can do well at any position on the team. Runs through a broken field well, has a good stiff arm and is one of the hardest tacklers in the , State. . Weighs 145 pounds. ' Right Half-back Harris (Raleigh High School). This man is also shifted from full to a half. He is a good line bucker and puts up a splen- Are Highly Trained. Will Render Excellent Pro gram.

The men in the Glee Club and Orchestra have been practicing steadlv for some time ad have .had excellent training. It is said that the Glee Club this year is one of the best that has ever been in the Univeisity. The above excel lent program will be well rendered. The performance is coming just at the right time to break the monotony of existance on the Hill. I In addition to the attractiveness of the program it must be remembered that the German Club dance will be held next Friday night after the Glee Club entertainment. ,:. The fair ladies of seven states are going to be here and will attend the entertainment. The prices of admission will be 25, 35 and 50 cents. Everybody is urged to come out and give the Musical As sociation his support. did defensive game. Weighs about 155 pounds. . ; Full-back Harkins (Horner Mili tary School) Harkins is several shades better than any of the other fulls con sidered. His work both offensive and defensive was excellent. He hits the line with a whirling', motion and opposing players found him almost im possible to stop. His line bucking en abled Horner to defeat Warrenton the past fall. He has good speed and plenty of weight 180 pounds. This eleven, given a month's work under a good coach would give any college team in the State a good hard fight. Everyone of these players should make his letter on some varsity aggregation. In choosing this team Bingham (Asheville) and Asheville School were not considered because neither met any of the stronger prep school teams of the State. Bingham, however, had by long odds the best prep eleven in the State and probably in the South. All Kinds of Missionaries Needed. Asks for , Volun . teers. The Annual Mission study Rally conducted by the Young Men's Chris tian Association for the purpose of stimulating interest in and study of missions and the missionary move ment, was held last Monday night;1 Mr. W. A. Tener of New York, who has lately been actively engaged in Y. M. C. A. work in foreign fields spoke on the missionary work that is being done in those fields. He said in sub stance: "This is a critical time with the great non -Christian and in part un civilized countries. A period of re naissance is going on in China, in Ja pan, in Korea, in Africa, in India, and in the Philippines. Th.se countries have lately been opened up and now they are in a period of development and formation. There is a vastness and a complexity in the movement that is in progress and these four classes of men are needed to forward the work: "1. Medical Missionaries. There is a great opening in all of the foreign fields for Christian doctors. Sickness and unsanitary conditions are preyal- ent in these countries where there are ' few capable doctors. "2. Social reformers. The social con ditions are in a rude 1 and primitive state. The female sex occupies a low, degraded position. "3. Teachers. There is nowhere a greater need for capable teachers than . in China for there the people are , in tensely ignorant, yet capable, and wil-, ling to learn. . . ' . "4. Christian Missionaries. The greatest need is for , young men who wish to engage in such work as the organization of Young Men's Chris tian Association, and to serve as secre taries of these associations after they are organized. I have lately served four years as secretary of the associa tion at Manila in the Phillipines. "In all of the countries which I have mentioned there is no longer any trouble in reaching the people. Rail way lines have been run through Af rica and China while Japan is very well developed. Then too, the gov ernments of these countries have re cognized the value of the work and no longer interfere. The Emperor of Ja- . pan has even given $5,000 to the move ment. Leading non-Christian business men contribute quite freely. And finally it remains to be said that good ; men are going into the work. Men who have taken a high stand in some ot the leading Universities and Col- ! leges of the United States have volun teered for the work. Mr. Barnett re presented well the type of men who are volunteering and others like him are wanted." ! An earnest invitation was extended to anyone who wished to volunteer for the work. Over 900 guesis were present at the annual Junior Prom at Yale this year. Basketball Tonight Carolina vs. Charlotte
