The -4 11 OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA Volume XXIX. CHAPEL HILL, N. C, OCTOBER 22, 1920 Number 9 FOR FIRST TIME IN ALL HISTORY TECH TAKES ANNUAL FOOTBALL GAME FROM TAR HEEL WARRIORS DURING THE FIRST HALF CARO LINA HAS THE EDGE ON TECH TECH BACKS RUN RIFE AT LAST Student Body Show Fine Spirit to the Bitter End 8000 See Game Playing before the Great State Fair yesterday State College defeat ed the Blue and White in the annual mid-season classic, for the first time in all history, by the score of 13 to 3. Eight thousand people were there to cheer the gridiron warriors on, and received thrills that were ample re compense for their enthusiasm. A drop kick from the 32 yard line by Lowe gave Carolina her only score. State's first score came in the third quarter when Faucette ran 45 yards around left end to within a few yards of Carolina's goal line, and a min' ute later carried the ball over him self by a series of line playes. The second touch down for State came in the fourth stage when Gurley carried the ball over in a line plunge after a steady march up the field gaining mostly by long end runs, State made her first down when she first received the ball on an off tackle play, but on the second play, suffering heavily by a penalty she was forced to kick. After gaining but one yard from two attempts at tackle, Carolina got away with a pretty forward pass, Lowe to Hut chins, gaining 20 yards and making first down. A second down was made by line plunges and off-tackle plays bringing Carolina to 32 yard line from which Lowe registered a field goal. For the balance of the first half neither goal was endangered. Both elevens fought desperately and at (Continued on page three) CHAPEL HILL THE DESERTED VILLAGE ON THURSDAY CARRBORO JOINS "PROFS." AND STUDENTS FOR RALEIGH Chapel Hill was one more deserted village Thursday, when the students, faculty, and townsfolk transferred operations to Riddick field, West Ra leigh to take a special course in foot ball. From the banks to the barber shops the business all suspended itself with the exception of Pattersons and Eubanks, whose services were needed to fill prescriptions for those who had the coin to go to Raleigh and couldn't go. It is estimated that almost two dozen students remained on the cam pus and it would be a shame to dis close the number of "profs" who gratted their classes. . Carrboro also was a city of the dead with its mills shut down, its stores closed and its population em barked en masse for Raleigh and the Great State Fair. Professor of Chemistry Contributes Research Results A recent paper in the Journal of the American Chemical Society by Dr. A. S. Wheeler has attracted a good deal of attention both in uni versity laboratories and in industrial plants. The title of the paper is "Para Cymene as a Solvent. " It gives the results of research work on cymene which was isolated in the laboratory from spruce turpentine. The solubility of many organic com pounds in cymene was determined quantitatively and suggestions for the use of cymene were offered. Dr. Wheeler was assisted by T. P. Daw son, J. S. Murray, R. H. Sawyer and H. M. Taylor. Prof. Frank Graham will go to Dur ham Monday night and 'to Goldsboro Wednesday night for the purpose of. addressing the University alumni in those two cities. RACQUETERS SHOW KEEN INTEREST IN CLASS CONTESTS ALL SCHOOLS HAVE ENTRANTS FOR THE COMING CONTESTS Following the announcement made by the Athletic Committee of the Campus Cabinet that the regular class tennis tournament would be held this year beginning Saturday, a large number of men handed in their names, signifying their desire to en ter. Each class, including the pro fessional schools, will have represen tatives in the tournament, and sev eral men will be picked from each class to contest in the Varsity tour nament, which is to be held later in the fall. Men that do not play in the class tournament will not be eli gible for the Varsity tournament, and present members of the Varsity will not be allowed to enter the class tournament. Every year interest in the racquet sport has been increasing at Caro lina, and now it has become an ac tive event on the athletic program. A number of interscholastic matches will be played in the spring and it is believed that the varsity will come through in fine shape. Carolina has already played one match this year with Trinity, and though defeated, made a creditable showing. Other colleges in the state are expected to be met on the courts sometime during the year. Manager Wade Gardner is trying to arrange some interesting matches. The lower courts,, which are iat present in pretty bad condition are being worked on now, and soon will be as splendid as the eight upper courts. The old rule of signing for courts during the chapel period is still in force, but next week courts will, of course, be reserved for can didates in the class tournaments. HUNDREDS OF SHECKELS ARE GIVEN TO Y BY STUDENTS TWO SUNDAY SCHOOLS NOW STAND ALONE The Y. M. C. A. financial cam paign for expenses has reached the $2,800 mark. Among the recent contributiors was General Julian S. Carr, of Durham, who sent in his check for $100.00 Among the alumni who have contri buted are: A. M. Scales, of Greens boro, $25.00; G. C. Green, of Weldon, $25.00; John Fries, of Winston-Salem, $25.00; John Sprunt Hill, of Durham, $20.00. In the north the men have heard the call and answered: F. D. Clancy, of Baltimore, $25.00; C. W. Toms, of New York, $25.00; I. M. Ledbetter, of New York, $25.00. The Y. M. C. A. has dropped three rural Sunday Schools as they are now standing on their own feet. The Y. undertook to maintain them and to conduct the services until they could support themselves. Now that they are self-supporting and need no long er the help of the Y three have been dropped from the list. Yet there is need for more workers in the field. Electrician on the War Path Dr. P. H. Daggett has gone to Springfield, Mass., to attend the Third National County Life Conference. while he is in the north Dr. Daggett will make some investigations at the Good Housekeeping Institute and will attend the Electrical show in New York. The graduate school has a roll of 111 students. Class Football Will Start on Next Monday Considerable interest has been manifested in class football thus far, and most of the classes have organ ized teams, which have been practic ing regularly every afternoon during the past week. The Sophomores and Juniors have probably been most ac tive in organizing and getting start ed. William Hester has been elected by his team mates Captain of the Junior team, and the Sophomore ag gregation has elected Pete Green as its leader. The class football schedule opens .Monday when the Juniors and Seniors meet on the class field. A hard fight is anticipated as is unusual in these class games.- On Friday of next week the Sophomores and Freshmen meet, a game which promises to be a battle royal, as Knox Proctor as two or three scrub teams that will make it interesting for any class team. BOOK OF RALEIGH MASQUE BY PROF. KOCH APPEARS RALEIGH, THE SHEPHERD OF THE OCEAN IS TITLE OF THE PAGEANT Prof. Frederick H. Kochs's book of this pageant masque, "Raleigh the Shepherd of the Ocean," has recently come from the printers and it is a work of art, both in outward ap pearance and in content. The book is bound in brown with Sir Walter Raleigh's coat of arms and his auto graph on the cover. Illustrated with a number of historical prints, beauti fully printed and bound, it stands as a landmark in North Carolina book craft. Mr. Kock dedicates the book to the people of Raleigh in the following words "To the citizens of the city of Raleigh in North Carolina, inheri tors of the brave spirit of the pio neer colonizer Sir Walter Raleigh, who wrote just before his fall, 'I shall yet live to see it an English nation." In the foreword written by Dr. Ed win Greenlaw of the English depart ment of the University points out that "the real spirit of America is not to be found in the New England tradition founded by Cromwellian settlers, but rather in the adventure, the romance, the daring accomplish ment, the color and the youth of Elizabethian England which resulted in Raleigh's explorations along our North Carolina shores. The purpose of the Raleigh Ter centenary Pageant according to Mr. Kock "is designed, not mearly to present some of the shining incidents in the life of the man, but also to suggest something of the larger sig nificance of his contribution, to show forth Sir Walter Raleigh as repres enting the struggle of the English people for freedom from tyrant rule, as blazing the way for those who come after him to inherit the fruition (Continued on page four) ARTICLE BY DR. HENDERSON IN NEW SOUTHERN REVIEW BOOK REVIEW BY DR. HENDER SON APPEARS IN SEPTEMBER NUMBER In "The Southern Review" for September, Dr. Archibald Henderson has a review of Albert T. Beveridge's new book "The Life of John Mar shall." Dr. Henderson, in comment ing on the historic and literary values of the book says: "No circumstance perhaps could so conclusively demon strate the newness of America and the comparative ignorance of great sections of our national history as the appearance at this late Iday of a monumental life of one of the most impressive figures which this conti nent has ever produced. For until the appearance of this super-biography of the great chief justice no bi ography of him pretending to any thing like adequacy or completeness had ever appeared. It is characteris tic of our modern passion for real ism and the actual truth of history." Suffice it to say this is one of the most conspicuous and memorable contributions to American history which has ever been produced." STATE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY ESTABLISHES BRANCH IN ASHEVILLE THIS TO BE CENTER OF SURVEY FOR TWO CAROLINAS AND GEORGIA MAPS SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS North Carolina, and Asheville in particular, is very fortunate in being selected by the U. S. Geological Sur vey as the home for one of its dis trict engineer offices. The location of this office at Asheville is due largely to the cordial and extensive co-operation of the State Survey with the Federal Survey in this line of work. Mr. Warren E. Hall, Hydraulic En gineer, will be in charge. From this office will be taken up the work of the U. S. Geological Survey on the water resources of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, which includes the measurement of the flow of rivers, daily gage reading to determine the height of water, the determination of the available water power at various localities on the sev eral rivers in the State, and the de termination of water supply for cities and towns. This work is taken up in co-operation with the several State Surveys, and in North Carolina the Geological and Economic Survey is co-operating to the utmost with the Federal Survey in this work. In addition, the State Survey is making a complete survey of the water resources of the several counties of the State, and assisting municipali ties in determining satisfactory water supplies; and in several instances has assisted in developing municipal water powers. This district engineer's office oc cupies space adjoining the Asheville Board of Trade, and the State Geolo gical Survey will have a branch office in this same space. Both the Federal and State Surveys will, as far as prac ticable, keep on file in this office copies of all their publications, including maps, particularly those publications and maps that relate to the Southern Appalachian region of the States of North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. Exhibits will also be made of the mining and forestry products of that region, and photographs and descrip tions of available water powers. A (Continued on page four) EXTENSION BUREAU REGULATES HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAMES BUREAU ISSUES REGULATIONS CONCERNING STATE CHAM PIONSHIP GAMES A leaflt entitled "Announcements and Regulations of the Seventh An nual State Championship Contest in High School Football for North Caro lina High Schools," has just been sent out to the schools of the state by the Bureau of Extension.

Woollen, B. C. Har rell and Donnell Van Noppen. Now Cease Your Fooling Ye "Hen and Egg" Mystery Lo! Now ye questions of philoso phiae are about to be unraveled, and ye question as to the precedent of the hen or the egg is at last nearing a solution. Pragmatism, Bolshvism, Communism, "casism, Bootism, all, are no longer to stalk the earth unde fined and unrecognized, for the disci ples of Horace have hereby leagued themselves together to solve these weighty problems. The Philosophy Club, as it is call ed, was organized last Sunday Even ing, having for its purpose the prep" aration, reading, and discussion of papers on questions and problems touching the field of philosophy. The members of this Club are T. C. Tay lor, B. C. Brown, Jonathan Daniels, D. R. Hodgins, and H. C. Heffner. FOR EVERY HOUSE IN THAT FAIR CITY SHALL BE NUMBERED AND EACH LITTLE STREET SHALL GIVE UP ITS NAME THAT ALL MAY BE BLESSED A great step has been made. The most progressive movement of the de cade is being started here. The most welcome innovation of these modern times in being put into effect right under our noses. The impossible is happening. Carrboro That beacon-light of progressiveness and home of clear and far-looking, thinking is the cause of this outburst. Why over there, they have simply seized the reins and are carrying out a plan to which au gust boards of aldermen have listened with bated breath, a plan to which whole villages and hamlets owe their right to call themselves cities, a plan which has been the means of setting many a lost and misguided man right. Filled with an overwhelming desire to set some poor stranger's feet in the right path, and a yearning to direct some wandering knight-errant to his destination, that body of tied men and true who direct the destines of the metropolis of Carrboro have at last, after years of search and confidence that they would at last find the finan cial means necessary, adopted this plan. Not only should the citizens of Carrboro and surrounding places give thanks that they will no longer have to search in vain for that which seems to be ever just around the corner, but also the student body of our grand and glorious University should arise as one man and in a void filled with respect and thankfulness say to Carr boro and to the elders who guide her future: "We wish to go on record as saying in a tone not to loud to be boisterous but loud enough to be en thusiastic, Rah-Rah for Carrboro!

These capers are held for the amusement of the Playmakers themselves just before work is begun on the regular fall series of plays. This performance consisted of a fanfaranade by charac ters from previous plays, a satyrical stunt by members of the faculty, and a culinary farce by Mr. Woollen. The fanfaranade, "Kochomania," represented a dream of Prof. Koch, in which St. Peter leads him down to Hell to witness certain actors whose names appear below. The Infernal caper, "Three Whoops in Hell" was another descent into the underworld where Satan was tormenting Raleigh, Shakespeare and Spencer by mak ing them read and listen to the opinions passed on their works by certain professors in the University "Bouillahaisse" proved to be the serving of a newly-concocted stew by Mr. C. T. Woollen, the origin of the title being the ballad of the name of Thackery. A dance concluded the program.
