En HF WHO IS YOUR CANDIDATE? WHO HEADS NEW TICKET? OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA Volume XXVIII. CHAPEL HILL, N. C, MARCH 13, 1920 Number 20 VARSITY LOSES TO A. ANDE. 32 TO 21 A. AND E. QUINT STAGE COM PLETE COMEBACK IN SEC OND GAME A. AND E. GAINS LAST HALF Liipfert, Center, Did Best Work For the Carolina Quintet Playing in fine form and staging a surprising comeback the State Col lege quint defeated Carolina on the Raleigh auditorium court by a score of 32 to 21 on last Saturday night; and left the question of "who has the best team?" ulideciddd, since they bit the dust on the local court three nights earlier before the onslaught of the Tar Heels to the tune of 32 to 12. - The second game was almost a complete reversal of what had taken place in the first. On Wednesday night the Tar Heels, playing in fine form, with speed, accuracy and ease hall all odds in its favor, and laid a eubatntial claim on the game from the first minute of the play; and al most quadrupled the score before the last period was up. For the first period of the second contest it was a magnificent game, both teams running neck-to-neck and ended with a 12 to 11 count in favor of the Techs. During the last half all odds went to Crozier's tossers. In fact, they led the score during the entire game with the exception of a few minutes of the first half during which Carolina staged a flurry of fine ball and led. . In the last period A. & E. gained a substantial lead by some difficult basket throwing, while Park and Cline, State guards, solved and broke up Carolina's short passing and pre vent our boys from scoring. Liipfert, center, played best for Carolina; while the effective work of Cline and Park, guards, featured the playing for A. lb E. Groome, A. lb E. center, led the scoring with five field goals.

KITA ADDRESSES MERIDETH STUDENTS Discusses Japanese and American Christian Relations "Japan is the eternal student of eternal progress of western civili zation and especially of America," was the message of S. Kita to the Young Women's Auxiliary Vesper service, of Meredith College, Ral eigh, on Sunday night, March 8th, at 6:15 p. m. Kita was a delegate from Carolina to the Des Moines conference, met the young ladies of the Meredith delega tion, and was asked to speak, to them at an early date on some phase of Japanese life. The tone of the entire Meeting Sunday night was Japanese; the national flag of Japan, and a Japanese song carrying this out. "Kita is our Carolina friend and only Japanese friend," was the intro duction of Miss Aycock, president of the Y. W. A. "I am so glad she didn't say Mr. Kita. Just Kita is so Mch more like what my Carolina friemis call me, 'Ke'." declared Kita. 'What Japan wants most is to be "naerstood by America. Good inter national friendship and ihutual un derstanding can come only from real contact of the two peoples. The Jap anese aren't common oriental people, and for the last half century since Commodore Perry first came to Ja- ( Continued on page 2) International Relations Club is Organized A branch of the International Re lations Club was formed here last week by two members of the faculty of the History Department and about twenty students. The present Rela tions club is to continue the work which was taken up and handled by the International Polity Club which existed here some years ago. The purpose of this organization is to study questions and problems of international moment, and is so or ganized that the student members may get the full advantage of . the superior knowledge and experience of the faculty members. The mem bers will meet in a perfectly informal fashion to discuss the problems that are facing the world. The club will probably have only three meetings the rest of this year, two of which will probably be devoted to the dis cussion of the Saar Basin and Peace Treaty questions. Dr. W. A. Pierson was unanimous ly chosen as director, as vas J. E. Banzet, Jr., who was elected secre DIALECTIC DISCIPLES HOLD FORTH IN FEED On last Saturday night the Di So ciety held the best smoker of the year, One of the largest crowds that the society has ever known was pres ent. Every seat was taken and many had to stand. All the elements for perfect smoker were at hand eats, smokes, music and oratory. Deep draughts from the wassail bowl were followed by long and pleasurable pulls upon the Meditations and Chester fields, which caused the hall to be en veloped in a glorious haze of smoke. Then more frequent and deeper draughts from the wassail bowl, the size of which would have caused the heart of Thor himself to swell with happy anticipations. For the time be ing Mr. Porter with his harp was the equal, of Paderewski or Konecney. But a look of anguish was present upon the face of the treasurer, for he could see the fines which he had with so much difficulty collected going both up and down in a much more rapid manner than that in which they had been secured. (Continued on page 2) ENFORCE COMPULSORY EDUCATIONAL LAW "If our compulsory education law is to have any teeth in it, a full-time attendance officer should be provided in all large communities," said T. J. Brawley, of Gastonia, in his report before the Carolina Club tonight in Gcrrard Hall.' Associated with Mr. Brawley in this report, which is the last one of the child welfare series, was II. G. Kincaid, also of Gastonia. The compulsory education law now provides that children between the ages of eight and fourteen should be compelled to attend school explained Mr. Brawley,. but he urged that all children should stay in school until they are eighteen years old so that they could obtain at least a high school education. Mr. Kincaid spoke on mill village problems, and among his recommen dations was one for the establishment of employment bureaus in all the large size mills in the state. Mr. Kincaid pointed out that the Durham Hosiery Mills had adopted this policy and as a result their labor turnover is only from eight to ten per cent, while the average labor turnover in the mills throughout the state is thir ty per cent and 320 per cent in the United States. Home ownership was another plan urged for the improvement of the condition among mill workers in this state. The owners of the mill should provide for these homes for their workers on the amortization plan, which would finally result in a more stable, devoted labor force. In 1919, only six states in the United States were without accident insurance in their factories and North Carolina was among the six, said 'Mr. Kincaid in urging that we adopt a system of such insurance. He closed his report by urging that mills in this state furnish playgrounds and other recre ational feature for their workers. CAROLINA SMOKER 1920 GREAT SUCCESS Annual Smoker Given By Y. M. C. A. Presents College Life AFFAIR IS WELL PRESENTED Blast followed blast in rapid suc cession. Yes, undoubtedly it was coming from the direction of Swain Hall. The shrill whistle could mean only one thing fire. ' Yes, it must be fire, for a loud crackling noise made itself heard above the uproar. But list! a new sound was added, feet were pattering on the ground, men are panting, and wheels are screak ing. Chief Burton with a skillful turn ran his reel right in the front door of Swain Hall and discovered the fire in the kitchen. After various and sundry preliminary preparations the fire company was at last ready for ac tion. Dumpy Shepard single-handed managed the nozzle while Jmm Penny held the hydrant. Willie P. Ander son carried water while Jonathan Daniels manned the force-pump. In the excitement men had rushed to the hall carrying whatever they happened to have with them. It was soon discovered that there were some thirty men present with musical in struments, and Swain was crowded with students. Suddenly a silent hush fell over the gathering and Dr. C. Cobb, grasping the psychological mo ment by the forelock, suggested tha we have a little jazz music. Ben Cone was rousted out of the crowd and right nobly did he and his string ed artist "touch to ecstacy the living lyre." Yea, under this hypnotic spell everything was forgotten and the Swain Hall waiters, thinking it was meal tide, raided the pantry, much to the joy of those present. Someone suggested grits, so How ell, Nichols, Brooks, and Thompson poured forth their melody, with the amazing result that harmony was served to the auditory rather than to the gustatory nerves. Being thus well fed, Jacobi called the "Angel" Fulton into the arena and the result was a three-minute bout (about good ness knows what) ending in a tie. By this time it was 9:45, time for the Mandolin Club to meet, so they met in Swain (nuf sed). Collier sug gested that we make a night of it and called on the co-eds to entertain. They all went into the kitchen, grab bed up whatever utensils they could find and under the leadership of Miss Hughes, who directed with a large butcher knife, Misses Denham, Foltz, Verner, Shine, Uzzell, Uzzell (again), Prudne, Sherrill and others (who were too well disguised to be recog nized) rendered several admirable va riations of the kitchen blues. Seeing this success, Burton and Wimberly couldn't be held down any (Continued on page 2) LAW CLUBS PROVE A GREAT SUCCESS Conducted On Same Order As Su preme Court Sessions This year the Law School has abandoned the old moot court face, and acting on Professor Efird's ad vice have adopted the club method modeled on the Harvard plan. The students have organized six of these club3 naming them after eminent Car olina men of the legal profession. They are known as the Ruffin, Ire dell, McGehee, Clark, Battle and Manning clubs. Each club has an average of about fifteen members, and for officers each club has a pres ident, a secretary and treasurer, and a clerk. They meet once every two weeks, and in these meetings cases are argued as before the supreme court. On or two members are as signed on each side to act as counsel; a member of the faculty sits as chief justice, and the other members sit as associate justices. At these meetings cases are argued which have been ar ranged by the faculty; students pre paring their own briefs and doing their own work. In this manner the student learns from actual experience how to write briefs, analyze facts, and depend on their own judgements: things every lawyer has to do. Professor Efird, a Harvard gradu ate, who originated these clubs at (Continued on page two) Orchestra Revelers Interesting Program The second of the series of Sun day afternoon concerts was given last Sunday m Gerrard Hall by the Uni versity orchestra. Judges capable of commenting on good music pronoun ced the program excellent, not to mention its popularity with the stu dents and townspeople, there being scarcely a vacant seat in the hall. The two violin solos by Julian II Turrentine were rendered in an espe cially artistic manner. The inter pretive notes ' which were provided also contributed much to the appre ciation of the selections. The complete program follows: I. Raymond Overture Thomas. II. Dance-Caprice Grieg; Alia Polacca de la Serenade Op. 8 Bee thoven; Moment Musical Schubert. III. Selection from "Les Hugue nots Meyerbeer. IV. Souvenir Drdla; Kuyawik Wieniawski. V. Ballet Suite Rameau-Mottl; Minuet; Musette; Tambourin. VI. Zampa Overture Herold. CAROLINA WINS SECOND PLACE SOUTHERN CONTEST Carolina, represented by W. H Bobbitt, of the Junior class won sec ond place in the first contest to be held by the Southern Oratorical League which took place on March 5th at Lexington, Kentucky, the seat of the University of Kentucky; first honors going to Kentucky and third to Johns Hopkins University. The Southern Oratorical League, organized this year by the Universi ties of Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, Carolina, Alabama, and Johns Hop kins and Vanderbilt Universities, plans to hold a contest in oratory each year at the seat of one of the universities composing the League. Mr. Bobbitt spoke on "The Pres ent Crisis m American Demroeracy, and the winner of first honors from Kentuckl discussed the Shantung problem. An invitation to the League to hold its second contest in Chapel Hill was extended some time since by the De bating Council, and it is probable that next year's contest will be held on the Hill. AMERICAN LEGION ELECT NEW OFFICERS At a meeting of the Chapel Hill Post of the American Legion on Thursday night, March the fourth, many important measures were acted upon. The bill at present before congress to give all ex-service men an additional bonus was discussed, as none knew exactly the status of the bill or exactly what it proposed, no definite action was taken. To get further information the secretary was instructed to write the National Com mander and get a statement of the exact form of bonus that the Ameri can Legion will urge Congress to pass. With this information the Post will meet again the first Thursday night in April for some definite ac tion. The Post decided to award French diplomas to those in Orange County and Chapel Hill who are nearest of kin to those who lost their lives in the service. The details of this was turned over to the program commit tee which is to work them out, and arrange for the presenting of the di plomas on some special Sunday af ternoon meeting. The program committee was also instructed to work on some plans for a program of community end county development. This, the Post thought, is a great field of work, especially in the fighting of blind tigers. The officers of the next term were elected: F. W. Morrison, superintend ent of the Chapel Hill Schools, post commander to succeed II. V. Koonts; Frank P. Graham, first vice-commander to succeed H. A. Whitfield; II. V. Koonts, second vice-commander; Lenoir Chambers, historian; Rev. E. L. Baskin, chaplain; James Phipps was elected secretary and treasurer and H. A. Whitfield was re-elected (Continued on page five) CAMERON MORRISON FLAYS REPUBLICANS "'" ' ' '" -it TT?I T a cirnTTTTvrnnci tttci inn , a in TO WHAT THE PLATFORM SHOULD BE ENDORSES WILSONS' ADMIN. States His Belief That the Revalua tion Act is a Makeshift Speaking straight from the should er in Gerrard Hall on Wednesday night, Cameron Morrison, . of Char lotte, gubernatorial candidate for nomination in the democratic pri maries in June, told the students . of the University what he wanted to see written in the Democratic platform by the Convention which is to meet in Raleigh shortly, and what he might be expected to fight for and stand for if elected Governor of this state. Mr. Morrison's speech was one-third a ciear cut statement of his position on current questions and problems, both state and national; one-third a charge, against the Republican party which he partly grounded against the acts of the Republicans during the Recon struction Period of the South when it was in power in the state, and partly against what it would do if it had any power today; and one-th'ird an exhortation to the young men of this time to study the "fundamental fab-J rics of the Democratic party as portrayed in Jefferson, Monroe and Vance. After expressing his awe in having to address such a group of men, in telligent men, Morrison launched into a defense of nartv government' and declared that its destruction : would mean socialism and sovietism, against which the American nature stands op posed as an ideal Bolsheviki stands opposed to real Americanism; that too much and unwarranted criticism had been directed at our government recently and that it was resulting in a lessened confidence from the people everywhere. On national questions, Mr. Morrison came out for unqualified endorsement of the Wilson Administration; decen tralization of the war-time powers of the Federal Government; and advo cated spreading our tremendous war debt over at least one generation. "The present generation has fought the war, not for self, but for all peo ple and all time to come," he declar ed, "and it is only fair that those who will profit by what we have done should help to the extent of contrib uting to the cost in money." The Revaluation Act passed by the last state legislature was character ized by the speaker as a makeshift; a step in the transition from our old, unfair and dilapidated means of rais ing revenue to the next and scientific taxation system at which the legis lature aims ultimately to perfect; but (Continued on page 2) COMMERCE STUDENTS ORGANIZE CORPORATION Purpose Is to Provide Trained Busi ness Administrators An organization of the School of Commerce called the Carolina Cor poration of Corporation was recently formed. The organization is organ ized just as a corporation it with a constitution, by-laws, directors, stock holders, and the like. . There are six teen directors: thirteen of them rep resent the stockholders or upper- classmen; the other three, the em ployees or freshmen. The purposes of the corporation, enumerated in the constitution, are as follows: to provide business adminis trators trained in the practical phases of modern industry; to promote the development and to extend the scope of the School of Commerce of the University of North Carolina; to finance and conduct any business en terprise which the corporation may deem advisable; to secure employment during vacations for those undergrad uates who may desire it and perman ent positions for graduates of the school; and to put before prospective college students the advantages of the School of Commerce of the Uni versity of North Carolina, and the op portunities for self-help students. The officers of the corporation are as follows: J. II. Erwin, president; (Continued on page sii)
