Amid the general jubilee over
the two victories from Virginia
and the good prospect of taking
another one the students might
well pause to give praise to an
other coach. Clancy has had
wonderful success with his teams
and his contests against Va., but
we must not forget another who by
his earnest and presistent efforts
has lifted a hitherto little regard
ed game into prominence. To
Nat J. Cartmell, the hardest
worker and most consistent win
ner as a coach Carolina has ever
had, we must pay the tribute that
faithful service merits. He has
lifted a track team that had no
prestige or reputation for victory
up to the proud position of
record smashers and South At
lantic champions. Every mem
ber of it is home product devel
oped through the dauntless energy
and hard work of the coach. Out
of nothing he has made a victo
rious team.
Doubtless Cartmell wont like
this, but we only give honor to
whom honor is due.
An account of the dances and
the great faculty ball game will
be published next week.

MEBANE WINS ORATOR'S MEDAL
In the first annual lunior ora
torical contest held last VVednes
day night, Banks Holt Mebane
won the Julian S Carr meda
over J. C. Busbee, Walter Stokes
and I. M. Bailey. All of these
men had been selected by com
petitive trials from each of the
literarv societies, the first two
from the Di and the last two from
the Phi. The judges were: Dr
H. W. Chase, Prof. M. H. Stacy,
and Prof. P. H. Winston. Prof.
E.' K. Graham presided over the
affair, preceeding the orations
with an explanation of the Carr
medal and a hope that it would
prove an inspiring supplement to
the Mancrum medal for members
of the senior class.
The first orator was Walter
Stokes, Jr. with the subject,
"Southern Spirit in National
Progressiveness." The passion
for the square deal, he said, is
inherent in Southern blood. The
words of L. O. C. Lamar were
quoted, l,I love my people better
than their approval." The period
before the war was the day of
a v- 4 A I i
romance, the Lroiaen Age oi tne
South. Then came war and deso
lation. Then the Southern spirit
revealed itself in man's daily deal-
with his fellows; we had to
reconstruct our devastated land.
Westerners have no law of pro
gression but to progress. North-
erners are absorbed in the chase
of the dollar and a Get-Rich-
Quick-W allingf ord spirit abounds.
In the South we have a great
community spirit which leaves
no place for avarice and greed.
The South is no longer the
dreamy land; it is where man s
love for God is expressed in man's
love for man.
J. C. Busbee followed with
"Progress in the Present South."
The predominating feature of the
South, he began, may be called
progressiveness. This may be
defined as the spirit of loyalty to
all that is loyal and true. Let
us bury sectionalism for national
ism. Our past is worthy of any
nation at any time. We went
down in the cataclysm of war,
but now stand liberated and free.
The South is looming up as an
important factor in solving prob
lems. In the North we find eith
er a sordid conservatism or an
ultra-radicalism. There are two
types in the South today, the
constructive statesman not rely
ing solely on the past, and the
other type which sees only the
glories ana grandeurs of the past.
The latter class consists of de
magogues who forget nothing
and learn nothing. It is the duty
of the college man to restore the
South to her old proud position
in the nation. ; L. Q- C. Lamar
said, "I desire to see my people
of the South restored to that
proud position to which they are
entitled." Let our efforts be for
today, our hopes for tomorrow.
I. M. Bailey spoke next on
"The New Democracy." He be
gan by saying we need govern
ment of the people, by the peo
ple, etc. The nation shall have
a new birth of democracy. The
masses and classes must receive
i equal protection. We must see
in our courts our underlying
principle of government. At
present we face many evils, as
politicians seeking office by a lav
ish expenditure of money. The.
individual citizen is responsible
for this because he does not think.
One must make a sacrifice to be a
good citizen. The liberty of the
individual should be restricted
only by the welfare of the com
munity. Every citizen should
seek to raise the standard of citi
zenship. We should prize our
birthright, and let our lives con
tribute to the security of govern- '
ment by the the people. At college
we are to equip ourselves for the
service of the State. The end is
a perfect individualism. j
The last orator was Banks Holt
Mebane with the subject "De
mocracy arid Education." The
eighteenth century saw the rise
of democracy, Greece and Rome
had met disaster ' the French
revolution was a horrible memory,
England was a constitutional
obligarchyi Fortune has smiled
on our own country thus far, but
the future is buo yeansas- m
sured. People must be ht tor
Democratic government, Demo
cratic government means self
government, rather than govern
ment from outside or from a king.
But to the Southern negro of Re
construction days Democratic
government meant no govern
ment at all. The case of the
negro is not exceptional. We
find his parallel in this respect in
Germany, Russa, and France. In
. . .
a real Democracy we . musi nave
not only a Democratic form of
government but Education. The
mechanism of our organization,
industrial and political, is satis-
actory. Curtesy, self-respect.
and friendly devotion are coming
to be regarded more and more. I
Uusiness has been regaroeu 100
much as a jramc; we have had
he spirit of self-interest rather
han self-governmeut. Men who
would not cheat an individual do
not scruole to cheat on a whole-
aaic staiti vjviuv. nnun. n mvus
to water milk and right to water
stock. Something- must be done
1
or our industrial system will be
put on trial. We must create a
sound publfc opinion. At present
our political ethics make it hard
or the man of high ideals. We
must equip each generation as it
comes on It; is a hopeful sign
that our public schools are grow
ing wonderfully. We want teach
ers for the business of manufac
turing citizens for inteligent and
responsible citizenship.
After two years consideration
of the matter, Boston Tech has
decided to abandon hazing.
