TAR HEEL SAMMIES TO
MAKE DRIVEON DURHAM
ARE TRAINING FOR BIG HIKE ON
APRIL 20 WILL PARADE AND
BE ENTERTAINED BY ALUMNI
WILL AID KED CROSS CAMPAIGN
April 20 is the date set for the
much-talked-of drive on Durham.
Since the proposed offensive on
the Capital' City failed to mater
ialize last fall, the men of the bat
talion have been longing for an
opportunity to start something.
The Spring thaw (as they say it
in France) . has commenced , and
the big show is scheduled to be
gin bright and early April 20.
The Tab Heei. is not violating
any rules of censorship, for it is
dealing with common knowledge
when it says that this big push is
primarily to aid the soldiers of
inercy, the Red Cross, in a strenu
ous campaign for dollars. .. The,
"battalion will be entertained at
lunch by the Durham alumni
headed by John Sprunt Hill, aft
er which it will take part in a big
Red Cross parade. After the pa
rade the local Red Cioss chapter
will give a vaudeville show in hon
or of the Carolina organization.
The battalion is in training, for
the trip and is taking hikes "and
route marches almost daily. now.
Tuesday, morning a rapid walk to
the . trenches was the order of the
day and Wednesday ; afternoon
some good time was made in a
forcod march down .the Durham
road.
Last night Capt. Allen took the
battalion on a night attack. On
account of the lateness of the hour
and the fact that some .of the men
were still stumbling through the
woods unable to find as plain a
place as Chapel Hill, The Tar
Heel was unable to obtain any de
tails before going to press. Capt.
Allen says that the missing list
could not be verified until dawn. "
Word has been, received- from
Jimmie Howell, formerly Caroli
na's champion yodeler, who is now
at Camp Joseph Johnston, Jack
sonville Fla. '
Tar Heel Contest is On
A contest will be held this week
to select an Associate Editor of
the Tar Heel to fill a vacancy dn
the board. The contest is open to
any member of the three upper
upper classes and will "be decided
on the merits of the contributions
for the next (March 23) issue.
A list of news assignments will
be posted in the Journalism room
at the library, in front of Chapel,
and in the Y. M. C. A., and con
testants may hand in as many
news stories as they wish. . Write
your , article in a vivid, snappy
manner and hand them to the
managing editor by Wednesday,
11 p. m. Write-ups of news hap
pening on Thursday may be
handed in up till midnight Thurs
day. All work must Te typewrit

serve Carolina and at the same
time gain valuable journalistic
training. Go out for that place

U. N. C. AND CORNELL WILL
. GET SPECIAL LECTURESHIPS
DR. H. E. JACKSON TO GIVE SE
RIES ON COMMUNITY ORGAN
IZATION AND PROBLEMS
The University of Xorth. Caro
lina .has," heen .-singled out , by' the
trustees of the community organi
zation board, Washington, D. C,
as one of the two universities in
the country at which .special lec
tureships will be established on
community organization. Cornell
is the other university to be so hon
ored. Commissioner of Education
P. P. Claxton has agreed to detail
Dr. Henry E. Jackson, of the na
tional bureau of education, for this
work, .without charge to the Uni
ersity. .'
The purpose of these special lec
tureships on community organiza
tion is stated by the trustees as "to
stimulate colleges to establish their
own, in order to secure volunteers
for the new profession of communi
ty secretary and to equip young
men and women to become lead
ers ; in their communities." Mr.
Jackson will deliver twelve lec
tures under this board at the Uni
versity next winter. They will be
concerned with the school house as
the community forum, community
buying and banking, how to or
ganize community - centers, and
other problems of community wel
fare. " . '
Dr. Jackson states in a letter to
President Graham the reason why
North Carolina was chosen for this
work. "I already know of your

New World Idea Runs
Thru Dr. Ward's Talks
The hew world how we are to
create it, was the theme that ran
through the addresses of Dr. Har
ry Ward, of Boston University,
who spoke last week to the student
body under the auspices of the Y.
M. C. A. On Thursday evening
his message was "The Cry of the
Children," a plea for men to make
the world a place that will have
for' its life the unfolding of the
capabilities of child-life, thus a
fit place for all mankind.
On Friday evening Dr. Ward
spoke on the theme, "The Voice of !
Labor," a plea to make the life of
the worker safe.
Dr. Ward's third ' message on
"Money or Men" was the call to
organize standards in industrial
life, to organize international life
on the co-operative basis.
"Masters or Servants," was the
theme of Dr. Ward's last address.
It was a call to the life of service.
"The bigger the cause which 'you
can give yourself in service, the
bigger you grow," he said. There
is immortality in a cause ; a man
never dies who goes into an im
perishable cause."

Dramatic Club Hard at
Work Under Prof. McKie
In George Broadhurst's "The
Man of the Hour" there is in store
for the playgoing public of town
and campus a ; pleasure that will
measure up in all respects to the
highest expectations. Under Prof.
McKie's skillful direction the dra
matic club rehearsals are being
held regularly with a full attend
ance and every one in the cast
shows continued, marked improve
ment. The play will be staged in
Gerrard Hall sometime after East
er, Mr. McKie says, possibly dur
ing Junior week. Its success is
already assured from the interest
that the future Sarah Bernhardts
iiTid Edwin Booths are taking in it.
The cast is larger than usual.
There are sixteen parts acted by
fifteen stars.
The management will probably
secure engagements to produce the
play in other towns.

J. C. EATON SUCCUMBS TO
CIIRONICWEAK HEART
DIES AT HOME AFTER 2 WEEKS
ILLNESS WON DEBATING AND
SCHOLARSHIP HONORS
WAS MEMBER TAR HEEL BOARD
J. Clifton
weeks illness
Eaton, after two
of chronic heart
disease, died at his home in Winston-Salem
last Wednesday . after-'
noon. With brilliant mind and ad
mirable traits of character, Eaton
entered the University with the
present Junior class two years
ago. ; Since; that time,, with the
exception of .the spring term -of;
last year when he was forced to
leave. . college on , account of.
his health, he led his class in schol-1
arship and proved himself a - wor
thy .member of the;. organizations
With which he was associated.
. In his freshman year he wonr
three of the highest honors open
to a freshman. He was awarded,
the Freshman Debater's medal in
the Di Society, won a place on his
society's team in the Inter-Society
Fresh-Soph debate, and led his
class in scholarship, , making an
average of one in -all of his work
for, the year. , Not only was he a.
good student but as a debater he,
held a prominent place in the Dia
lectic Society, lie was one. of the
winners of twenty-five dollars in
the- recent Infra-College debate.
Clifton was highly literary, con
tributing largely to the University.
Magazine, and until his recent ill
ness was one of the best reporters ,
on the Tab Heel board. It was
in. this last capacity that of asso
ciate editor of the Tab Hkei,
that he rendered perhaps his most
effective work, for journalism had
ever been his favorite study. Clif
ton had recently been elected to
membership in Epsiloh Phi Delta,
and his work thus far in, that or
ganization was very promising.
The entire student Twdy, the
faculty, and most especially the.
Tar Heel board, lament this un
timely death of J. Clifton Eaton,
a student faithful to duty on
every occasion,' a gentleman, a
friend- unselfish and true.'
Senior Quint Wins Title
The Seniors won the class bas
ket-hall championship last Thurs
day when they won from the sec
ond year quint while the Juniors
were defeating the strong Fresh-
man team l ne 4tn year men
came through the schedule with a
clean slate,' winning all of. their
games. The games scheduled , for
today were called off since the Sen
iors would get the pennant on the
percentage hasis, whether . they
won or lost.
Altogether the class basketball
series this year has seemed to call
forth more interest than ever be
fore. Every team has . worked
hard to win, and a large crowd
has witnessed the games each day.
