THE TWENTY-FIFTH
PLAYED IN
"PROFESSORS" GIVEN
TWENTY-FIVE PER
CENT SALARY RAISE
IS IN THE FORM OF A RELIEF
UNTIL THE STATE CAN
PROVIDE
THE GENERAL EDUCATION BOARD
As a temporary emergency gift to
relieve the present critical situation in
professors' salaries at the University
the general education board of New
York has given a sum sufficient to
raise all salaries approximately 25 per
cent for the current year only, accord
ing to an announcement made by
President Chase.
The gift is retroactive" and will
cover the year from July 1, 1920, to
July 1, 1.921. It does not go beyond
the one year, President Chase said,
because the gift was made to tide
over the . immediate situation until
other funds could be obtained.
Further than that, he pointed out,
its emergency character is emphasiz
ed by the fact that the general educa
tion board has a declared policy of not
donating money to state institutions
and has departed from this policy only
a few times and then to relieve press
ing conditions.
The increase applies to all the teach
ing force at the university from pro
fessors to instructors. The money will
be available in the near future and it
is expected that the back pay from
last July will be included in the Janu
ary 1 salary checks, "just in time to
meet the January bills," as one pro
fessor said.
Aside from the recognition which
the general education board after thor
ough investigation, has thus given offi
cially to the emergency situation at
the university, the main' point about
the donation which President Chase
sees is the aid it will give him in hold
ing together the faculty of the uni
versity at a time when colleges and
. universities all over the country are
bidding for teachers and are offering
them larger salaries than the univer
sity has been able to pay. Within the
past 18 months the 73 teachers here
above the rank of instructors have
received 24 offers from other institu
tions at higher salaries than they get

HAZING AT NAVAL ACADEMY
COMES TO A SERIOUS PASS
BAKER SAYS ORDERS EXECUTED
WOULD ANNIHILATE
ACADEMY
Rear Admiral Scales, commandant
of the United States Naval Academy
at Annapolis, has the hazing situation
there in hand, secretary of Navy
Daniels said today.
Daniels declared he would order ex
pelled from the academy all midship
men found guilty of hazing no matter
how great the number implicated.
If Secretary Daniels dismisses all
Annapolis midshipmen who are guilty
of violating the hazing rules he will
have to close the academy altogether,
Samiel C. Baker, Jr., of Seattle, a
former midshipman declared in a
statement made public today.
Baker, who was expelled from the
academy on a hazing charge, today
said he defied Secretary Daniels or
Commandant Scales to prove their al
legations. Baker referred to the Naval
academy as "worse than a kinder
garten." During 1918 and 1919 Baker said,
that some plebs were so hazed that
they were barely able t6 walk. Later
two plebs attempted suicide to es
cape hazing.
Worth Daniels, son of the Secretary
of Navy, was the most frequently
hazed man of his class, Baker de
clared, and he resigned from the acad
emy after the armistice was signed.
OLD DOMINION
Lowe Ele.cted to Head
1921 Football Team
F. Robbins Lowe, of Winston-Salem,
who is one of the sturdiest all-round
athletes on our campus, was elected
captain of the team for 1921. The
election took place ' in Charlottes
ville immediately after the Virginia
game, and "Runt" was easily the
choice of the men. He has just com
pleted his second year of varsity ball

country, having encountered few who
can lift a ball as well as he.

CHARLOTTESVILLE
BY
DR. EDWIN GREENLAW
EXCHANGE LECTURER
GOES TO VANDERBILT
LECTURERS PRESENT RECENT AD
VANCE IN SPECIAL BRANCH
OF LEARNING
FOUR UNIVERSITIES ARE UNITED
Dr. Edwin Greenlaw, Kenan Pro
fessor of English,-and Dean of. the
Graduate School, ha,s been announced
as exchange lecturer for this year,
by Dr. Archibald Henderson, chairman
of the committee. Dr. Greenlaw will
go to Vanderbilt University sometime
this year and deliver the Southern
Exchange iecture, which is one of the
most important and significant lec
tures given in four of the most im
portant institutions of learning within
the states of North and South Caro
lina, Virginia and Tennessee. In re
gard to these lectures the University
catalogue has the following to say;
"In 1914 an exchange lectureship
was established by Vanderbilt Uni
versity, the University of Virginia,
the University of South Carolina and
the University of North Carolina.
Under the terms of this lectureship
each university will send a lecturer to
and will be visited by a lecturer from
one of the other universities partici-
j pating in the lecture foundation. The
purposes of this lectureship, are: to
promote scholarship, to present in con
crete form recent advances in some
special branch of learning, and to
bring the institutions concerned into
closer relationship through exchange
of ideas in regard to all vital prob
lems affecting a modern university."
The first of the exchange lecturers
was Dr. Venable, Head of the Chemis
try Department. Several other pro
fessors of the university have been on
the exchange program also and in
1916-1917 Professor William Cain
delivered the lectures at Vanderbilt.
During the war period they were dis
continued, but in 1919-1920 they were
resumed and Professor George Howe
delivered the lectures at the Univer
sity of South Carolina.
ENGLISH STUDENTS TO EDIT
SPECIAL EDITION MAGAZINE
THIS ISSUE TO BE BROADCAST
THROUGHOUT THE
STATE
There will be a special issue of the
Carolina Magazine published in Janu
ary under the name "Greater Univer
sity Number". This number will carry
illustrations and will portray the actu
al conditions existing on the Univer
sity Campus. Five men of every
county who are not aumni of this
university will receive a copy of this
number of the Magazine. Besides the
data concerning the University this
number of the Magazine will carry
the regular series of short stories and
poems.
The February number of the Maga
zine will be published and edited by
students in the class of English. This
will be a fetature number carrying
the best material which has been sub
mitted by the writing classes of the
English Department. W. H. Bobbitt
will be Editor-in-chief of this number.
The March number will be published
and edited by the regular board of edi
tors. There will be no April number.
The May number will probably be a
feature number given over to some
phase of College life and the possi
bilities of there being a June number
are still doubtful. Should there be one,
however, the readers may look for
ward to a treat, for it will be given
over to commencement stories and activities.
BOYS
FOOTBALL GAME,
GOES TO THE
THE SCORE
VIRGINIA HAS WON A TOTAL OF 18 GAMES, BUT
NONE SINCE 1915-ONE TIE MATCH.
VIRGINIANS FAVORITES
FUMBLE ON EIGHT-YARD LINE GIVES VA. FIRST SCORE
Weather Ideal For Football But Wind Interferes With
Accuracy of Punting Many University
Alumni in Attendance
Playing a slashing game before 6,000 spectators in Charlottesville on
Thursday the Old Dominion eleven finally emerged from the twenty-fifth
annual Thanksgiving contest between the two universities with a 14 to 0
victory over the Tar Heels. Virginia, although her first tally came as the
result of a costly fumble by Hutchins on Carolina's eight yard line which
was recovered by Newman, outplayed the invaders, and' in the fourth quarter,
when the second score came, clearly outplayed the Carolinians. With all of
her offensive power unleashed in this period, Virginia dimmed the fight and
pluck of the Tar Heels, and for the first time in the contest they showed up a ,
bit weak.
But never did a Tar Heel team fight more persistently and doggedly than
did Captain Harrell's men, who were sustained to the last minute, and even
after, by the Tar Heel supporters both from the student body and from over
the State whom the "high cost of traveling" had permitted to reach Char
lottesville. The Tar Heel team, although it did not show the same touches
of finish and ability to gain consistently as the Virginians, showed flashes of
brilliancy; and in the first and third quarters, with the wind to their backs',
kept the play well in Virginia's territory. They never had a chance to score,
and their only attempt in Lowe's drop kick was blocked.
SENIOR CLASS HOLDS SECOND
SMOKER IN ZETA PSI HOUSE
ARCHIBALD HENDERSON SPEAKS
TO SENIORS ON BETTERMENT
OF UNIVERSITY
The Senior Class held .their second
Smoker last Wednesday night at the
Zeta Psi fraternity house. The Smoker
was opened by President Berryhill
who then called on Dr. Archibald Hen
derson. Dr. Henderson spoke on the
betterment of the University. In his
speech he said that there was a great
work for the county clubs to do if they
would do it, however, at present they
do not appear to be doing anything.
They could be of infinite value to the
University and the State if they would
take up such matters as writing his
tories of their counties; not the old
kind of history, but a document which
would tell of the economic resources
of their counties. Next Dr. Hender
son said there was a work awaiting
the alumni and students of this insti
tution, and that work is making and
preserving a history of this Univer
sity. The development of this Uni
versity makes it imperative that some
one undertake this task and the logi
cal person to do it is a student or
alumnus. Then Dr. Henderson spoke
of our need here of a better under
standing and enjoyment of the higher
arts. There is not a painter or sculp
tor in North Carolina whom anyone
knows, and the reason lies in the fact
that we have neglected this important
part of our education. Dr. Henderson
then told of his long and unsuccessful
attempt to induce some prominent
painter or sculptor to come and stay
here for sometime and tell us about
his field of higher art. He then con
cluded by expressing his hope in being
