FIFTH STRAIGHT IS WON
CAROLINA 42, CHARLOTTE 28
Varsity Shows Nice Form and Runs Away With
Game.
On Wednesday night in a contest that
at all times showed some real basket
ball Carolina put it over the Charlotte
Y. M. C. A. to the extent of 42 to 28.
The game was not as fast as some of
the other ones have been, but Caro
lina's passing and handling of the ball
was nearer the real thing than in any
of the former games. In fact our
quintett showed remarkable improve
ments in the matter of team work, and
although they failed to make connec
tions with the basket on several easy
throws, yet their shooting as a whole
was very creditable, Ritch and Smith
doinar erood work around the baskets
The first half was close enough to
be inteiesting. In fact at times it was
just a little too close the greatest
difference in the scores of the two
teams in that half being 4 points. In
this half the teams seemed to be pretty
evenly matched and the lead see-sawed
back and forth. The half ended,
however, with the balance on the
right side, lb to 12 in Carolina's favor.
In the second half things started off
with a rush and stayed there for the
most part until all was over but the
shouting. In this half Carolina ran
up 26 points to Charlotte's 16. Along
about the middle of the half Carolina
did her best work. Her team work
here was the nearest approach to the
real thing that she has yet shown.
Charlotte played a good game, con
sidering but then the visitors were
lacking several of their best players
and in addition to this had played
three straight games before coming up
against our bunch. So they were uot
by any means at their best. Averette
for them played good ball. The line
up was:

Interesting Papers Read by Drs. Coker and Mac
Nider. Attendance Small.
The Elisha Mitchell Scientific So
ciety met Tuesday night in the main
lecture room of Chemistry Hall, with
the smallest number present tnar nas
yet attended a meeting this year, only
twenty-six scientific devotees being;
there to hear the papers read and dis
cussed, including half a dozen mem
bers of the faculty and two or three as
sistants. -
. The first paper was read by Dr. W.
C. Coker, who discussed the subject of
wm m trend ntii its mantipr or nrni av a'
""u t r ca
tion. He presented a comprehensive
survey of the various kinds of yeasts,
showing the gradual gradiations from
those that multiply by fusing togeth
er to those multiplying by simple di
vision. : Yeast, declared Dr. Coker, is
far from being a simple class of fungi.
The most common sort of yeast that
one has to deal with in every-day life
is that known as the Ascormycetes.
This parisitical growth is what forms
upon dry bread, old leather, or any
thing which can possibly become what
we call mody.
Dr. Coker's paper being open for
discussion, Dr. H. V. Wilson enquired
more particularly concerning some of
the investigations on the subject of
yeast. '
,;,;The' setemra paper ; wak: read by Dr. '
W. B. MacNider on the power of the
cells of the kidneys to regenerate
themselves. Dr. MacNider's observa
tions were based upon experiments
made in the laboratory upon some for
ty cats. " The kidneys of cats, he ex-'
plained, are supplied with blood by
two arteries, one supplying two-thirds
and the other one-third. If the artery
supplying the one-third of the kidney
be tied so that the blood supply is cut
off, and other various precautions tak
en to absolutely prevent this part of
the kidney from being supplied with
blood, thus apparently deadening the
cells, nevertheless, certain portions af
ter about twenty days or more do ac
tually undergo regeneration. More
over, if a small slice of the kidney be
placed upon a glass slide, and bathed
in a drop of the fluid produced by the
blood. ' the oart will be regenerated.
Dr. MacNider referred to his observa
tions on this question while at the
Rockefeller Institute.
There was rather extended discus
sion of this paper. Dr. Wilson men
tioned the fact that all research of
this kind dated from the experiments
in Harrison's laboratory.
At the Univ. of California, five stu
dents were suspended by the "Under-
i graduate Student Affairs Committee"
for cheating in examination.
Among the various schemes for
raising the $100,000 needed for a new
students building at Wellesley a stu
dent has outlined a plan for "Silent
Dinners" to be given at the various
college houses, with a penalty of ten
cents every time a girl speaks during
the feast.
