OUR MORALE The weather for the past week has been damnable. .It will likely continue so or at least show its ugly face with discouraging frequency. This for some time to come is the time of year when blue Mondays come oftener than once a week. There' no very strong inducement for this kind of weather to burst into song. Weather' and spirit are very closely related. Our morale is likely to undergo a sudden depression if we ' don't keep our viselike clutch on it. i The flowers that bloom in the . Spring, tra la, are very far removed from our case, tra la. But it would be a crime to see the wonderful spirit that kept us all in high last fall get " soggy along with ; the weather. For one thing, it ought not to be that kind of a spirit. For another, it ain't. The blue days don't last more than six- weeks, thank heaven, but in that brief time they can do much das tardly work to make the weaker brothers who feel themselves slip ping. Some of them slip all the way off the Hill which is indeed some-slide and a regretable one too. For what will father say? .Also : this is a delightful place in Spring and we don't feel the need of hot water in the gymnasium. Many a good freshman with Phi Beta Kappa intentions flunketh the course at about this period. Don't let the weather capture your angora. It can't last forever. THE FOOTBALL SCHEDULE ...The football schedule has just been.' announced. It contains games with Wake Forest, Yale South Caro lina, N. C. State, Maryland State, V. M. I., Davidson and Virginia. Such a cshedule has its advantages, no doubt, in developing the team for its two most important games with N. C. State and Virginia. On the other hand the schedule has decided limitations . It seems to us that the schedule as published automatically bars us from contemplating in the Southern championship race. It would surely be a near tragedy to ; produce a championship team next October and know we were out of the running for Southern honors. The schedule as it now stands is by no means a weak one. On the contrary it ; is fully up to our standard and will make our team hustle. ' A radical change is not advocated. But the playing of one game with some far-Southern team which is consistently In the all Southern race would be a wise move, we think, and one which would have advantages for a strong team. OLD BUILDINGS . AND NEW ..... ; ' The builders of the University adopted a definite architectural scheme that gave a distinctiveness to the plan. The type of architecture we are referring to is typified by South, Old East, and Old West, flanked in their turn by New East and New West. Roughly analyized these old buildings are the hub around which the new University has been and is being built up. , The buildings are consistent; they are old but in their age is to be found the same clean, thoroughbred ap pearance. They're like a clean, thoroughbred old man. We have no criticism to make in general of the newer buildings of the campus. But the greatest material development of the University is to come and it's coming fast. And the architecture of our coming buildings ought to have the characteristi clook of the old buildings; our beautiful old campus ought to be adorned by, buildings which harmonize and are consistent. Clean, thoroughbred build ings of the characteristic type, that's what we want. While we said we made no criti cism of the newer University build ings in general,, is it not true that Memorial Hall was designed by a gentleman who, as an architect was an excellent bricklayer. We say this with all due respect. We don't even know who he was. This thing should never happen again. l wo new dormitories are soon to be constructed behind South. May they belong to the South family. Then comes the much needed Graham Memorial building. Surely the memorial to. the great man who spent his life developing the UnU versity and making her great should be characteristic of the old architec ture and likewise of the man. Some thing of the personality of President Graham may be expressed in this building and if that is done, our architectural scheme will be self- evident. A THING OF GREAT VALUE ' The Tar Heel wishes in this man ner to endorse a course now being given in the curriculum known as the General Course. This course is primarily open to freshmen but no student who is interested ",'in the general subject of this course the Social Sciences is barred from the ectures. The students and particu arly the freshman class have a great opportunity to hear valuable lectures on these subjects which the course will cover: Government) Economics Education, Sociology, Religion, and History. These subjects are in themselves live topics which today are drawing the attention of all thinking people. The following gen tlemen will have charge of the , lec tures for this quarter: Drs. Hamil ton, Carroll, Knight, Branson, Moss, and Pierson. These men are espe cially fitted to conduct a course of such a nature and whoever has a chance to hear these lectures will be benefited, and will realize these benefits more and more as time passes. ALL-STATE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM PICKED (Continued from Page one) Left Half English, Monroe. Right Half Green, Wilmington. Full Williamson, Asheville. Concerning the first team Barden said: "The line-up of the all-state high school eleven for the season of 1919 ' presents the most powerful aggregation of players seen in the high schools for a long time. The team is ; a combination of hard-hit-ling players, with a line of excep tional ability, able to lift and open holes, tight on defense, and with a backfield combining speed and power in running. It has a drop-kicker, a good punter, and a quarterback who is not only sturdy but extremely elusive when started on the field with the ball. As captain of this team we would choose Sparrow, Chapel Hill's quarterback and cap tain." R. . B. House, . collector of war records, will address smoker of American Legion Chapel Hill Post at a smoker at school house Wednesday night at eight o'clock. . All members of Post invited. All ex-service men welcome. H. V. KOONTS, Post Commander. STUDENT FORUM Practically everything we have won in the last several years in track has been in the line of field events, which require form rather than long training necessary to get into condition for winning races. With the heavy schedule .that !the track team has this year it is going to be necessary to win our share of both the races and the field events in order to make a creditable show ing. To do this a long period of hard training will be nedessary. The field event men must perfect their form, and the runners must secure the ' wind and endurance necessary to win. In order to do this every one should start work at once. The first meet is only two months off and the others follow in quick suc cession. If we are to repeat the story of the football team by a Victory over Virginia on the 24th it is necessary for a large squad to be out at once. From the beginning let it be clearly understood that this article is written from a student's point Sf view, as a "Carolina man" interested in the welfare of Carolina and her growth to a bigger and better Uni versity, and not a member of the Tar Heel Board. Last week there was much com ment about the four page issue of the Tar Heel. Many asked where the trouble lay; was it in the board of editors or was it in the manage ment? No, fellows, I happen to know it was in neither. The trouble was with us as students. We ex pect to get something for nothing, and as long as we hold to this atti tude we will not have a Tar Heel that will reflect credit on Carolina as it should. The editors "get enough material each week to put out an eight or ten-page paper, and the manager can get enough ads to finance it Todo so, however, the manager will have to run fifty " or sixty per cent ads, which would be a disgrace to our paper. It should depend upon ads to a very small extent, and should get the major part of its support from us as students. There is no reason in the world why every student on the campus should not read his own Tar Heel. When four teen hundred students read three hundred and fifty Tar Heels there is something radically wrong. We boost our Carolina Spirit. Yes, we are proud of it. I ask you, are you going to have this spirit m the big things and let it weaken under the test of smaller things ? You would not think of taking undue advantage of your opponent on the athletic field, or do anything short of a gentleman in the class room. You would say that they . were en tirely out of accord with the Caro line Spirit. When you fail to subscribe to the Tar Heel, and read your neighbor's, you are not only, taking advantage of your college newspaper but also of your neighbor, for if such condi tions continue to ' exist your neigh bor will have ' no paper to read Think of this and see if it comes up to the standards of our Carolina Spirit. Carolina's standard and spirit is reflected over the country and to other colleges largely .through her newspaper. I know every Carolina man loves this place and would do nothing to injure it in any way. We have not realized what it means to her when we let two or three non subscriber: read our paper, or when we read our friend's paper. We have looked at it too much from a mone tary standpoint. Look at the ' other side of the question. See if you are measuring up to the spirit of the campus. The paper makes no plea except for a square deal. Give it justice, it needs it. W. II. ANDREWS. Juniors Win First of Class Basketball Games In the first class basketball game of the season, the Juniors managed to emerge with the big end of a rather one-sided game with the Seniors. The score 33 to 8 shows the closeness of the game. Lynch for the Seniors did the major part of the scoring, safely caging six fouls. Townsend had Senior honors in scoring the only field goal that they ere able to get. . The whole Junior team played well, their pass ing was especially good. Get the habit read the Tar Heel ads every week.

Charlotte "Y" Game The game with Charlotte "Y" was marked with special significance, having two Carolina captains on it, in the persons of Meb Long and Cuthbertson, both of whom were stars of the first order. The game was played in the Charlotte "Y," on Saturday night. The Carolina team once more suffered defeat at the hands of her rivals. But neverthe less it wa3 a snappy well played game from start . to finish, and was featured by the excellent and fast playing of both teams, the final score being 40 to 32 in favor of Charlotte. ' Long, who was a famous star dur ing his basketball career here, proved anything but dangerous, however, as he was able to cage .the ball only twice. He was not in form, how ever. Although suffering defeat twice out of the three attempts, the team returned in the same spirit that they left us with, and the student body welcomed them back just as gladly and with just as much pride, for they realize that the team did its best, and that's all they ever ask.

Judg ment In the selection of your Clothes need not neces sarily be based on tech nical knowledge of clothes making. When you come to a store like this you've taken the first in good judgment. You place your reliance for good .quality and good style upon the reputation of the store or the makers of the clothes we handle. Cy Thompson Says- To Ex-Service Men: President Wilson has signed the Sweet law recently passed by Congress, making many de sirable changes in the six per manent forms of Government Life Insurance. The choice of lump sum settlement to your estate is ''one of them. Come in to see me in my of fice opposite the campus and learn in detail how you may re instate your lapsed policy or convert all or any portion of yours.
