Southern Intercollegiate Conference,
under what are said to be the strictest
regulations proposed for any similar
organization in the country.
The regulations adopted to protect
the integrity of athletics not only
included the one-year rule and the
three-year'rule, but went a step fur
ther by stipulating that no athlete
having attended a college can go to
another college and engage in ath
letics under any circumstances. It
was decided to put the rules into
effect January 1,' 1922, so as not to
interfere with existing contracts.
The proposed rule against summer
baseball for money on semi-profes
sional teams was not included.
The faculty members on the ath-
etic committee in the different in
stitutions mo:t constitute a majority
and must assume responsibility for
carrying out the eligibility rules
adopted by the conference.
Track and field rules shall be those
adopted by the national collegiate'
athletic association.
No studert may accept compensa
tion for participation in any branch
of sport. No student may become a
member of any team for occasional
contests until after permission has!
been obtained from the faculty com
mittee on athletics. Such students
I who receive expenses for such occa
sional games must submit certified
and receipted vouchers therefor.
Under the rules adopted, no fresh
man can play on any team in the con
ference, nor can any athlete partici
pate in college athletics for more
than three years. Those three years
must also be gotten in within four
years from the date of matricula
tion. Harmony prevailed throughout the
meeting, and the belief was express-
Commercial Athletics Are Scored at
Meeting of National Collegiate
Association.
Dr. A. H. Patterson wa3 in attend
ance at a recent meeting in Chicago
of the National Collegiate Associa
tion, the only collegiate athletic as
sociation in the country, as a repre
sentative of the University. The
leaders of the association, which is
composed of about 150 of the lead
ing institutions in America, are such
men as Stagg, of Chicago Univer
sity; Yost, of Michigan University;
Warner, of the University of Pitts
burgh, and Walter Camp and others.
The University and N. C. 'State are
members of this association.
The growing commercialism of
athletics came up for considerable
discussion at the meeting, for the
association realized that college ath
letics were growing in popularity
owing to the unpopularity of com
mercial athletics! Attesting to this
fact is a comparison between the at
tendance of the Yale-Harvard foot
ball game in the Yale Bowl last fall
and the average attendance of the
World series which was about 35,000

DEAN Gil '"SPHKS
L
Says Man That Can Command Lan
guages Will Be at a Great
Advantage.
"Abolish the rubbish from our
curriculum such jls zoology, botany,'
biology," and I may add economics,;
"and substitute foreign languages in
our schools," quoted D. D. Carroll,
Dean of the School of Commerce,
from a newspaper clipping of Secre
tary of State Colby's address on his
return from South America, in
chapel Monday morning, Feb. 28.
Dean Carroll took his text from
the eleventh chapter of Genesis,
which relates how the Tower of
Babel was built to pierce the heav
ens and the Lord not liking the work
caused confusion of tongues to fall
upon them, and in the words of Dean
Carroll: "To judge from the agony
students here in the University show,
in their study of modern languages,
it was some confusion, believe me."
Changing from the humorous side
of his subject, Dean Carroll present
ed the materialistic side of why we
should study modern languages. He
traced the growth and cleave of
languages and said that differences
of languages and religion were pri
marily the cause of the failure of the
League of Nations.
Dean Carroll said that in the pres
ent day and in the future our trade
relations will look outward to for
eign shores and that the man who
can command foreign languages will
man who cannot speak any but his
be at a great advantage over the
own tongue. Foreign trade depends
on convincing the foreign buyer of
the value of your goods, but you can
not convince him unless you speak
his language. He does not care
about you, you must care about him
if you want to sell him goods, con
cluded Mr. Carroll.
Donnell Van Noppen, held the nomin
ations and before they were closed,
C. J. Williams, S. O. Bondurant, F.
A. Grissette, E. W. Tenney, W. Ed
win Matthews and W. F. Falls were
put up for the job.
Of these men, the first three were
nominated by the Y. M. C. A. cabi
net. The last three men were
nominated by students, but after the
Chapel period, each of the three last
named men announced their inten
tion of withdrawing their names
from the list. It is understood that
the men the Cabinet nominates are
considered the best men from the
places. However, a chance is always
given to students to nominate any
one whom they think has been over
looked. While all these nominations were
made for the presidency, it should
not be understood that this is the
only position to be filled. There are
three places, President, Vice-President,
and Secretary, and while all
men when they are nominated, run
for the Presidency, some of these
same men get the other positions.
The man who gets the highest num
ber of votes becomes President, the
next highest man gets the Vice
Presidency, while the third highest
is elected Secretary.
Balloting will be carried on next
Tuesday at the customary polls the
eating houses, Gerrard Hall, Phar
macy, Law, and Medical Buildings,
and the Post Office.
A statement of what each of these
men has 'done since he has been in

With Ripple leading the attack,
caging eight field goals, many from
almost the center of the court, North
Carolina State College sprang a big
surprise in Raleigh Wednesday night
and defeated the Carolina basketball
quint by the score of 32-31.
. In the last half a minute and thir
ty second before the final whistle the
Carolina five was one point in the
lead. The ball was out of bounds in
State's territory but in Carolina's
possession. Hanby passed to Mc
Donald, who was hooked by Johnson.
The ball was passed up between them
and in the scramble Pork recovered
for State and dropped in the win
ning basket. With fifteen seconds to
play Carolina made a desperate ef
fort to win, and Carmichael drib
bled down the floor shortly after the
toss, and took a long shot that miss
ed its mark by only a few inches.
State recovered the ball and the
game ended.
The West Raleigh boys took Caro
lina off her guard in the first few
minutes of the game. Ripple and
Groome were able to make long and
sensational shots that ran the score
up quickly. Practically during the
entire first half State kept the lead
by a few points. Carolina failed to
pass with the cleverness and accur
acy that has characterized her play
ing in the past. Aggressive guard
ing by State caused the Blue and
White quint to fumble often, and
under the Carolina goal the shots
were broken - up continuously by
State. Carmichael made three long
court goals during the first period,
Shepherd registered two, and the
other members of the team contrib
uted one each. Ripple made seven
in this priod for State, and his
guarding was also a feature. The
half ended with State college seven
points in the lead, the score standing
25-18.
Carolina came back strong in the
final period, playing better 'from
every standpoint. The whole quint's
work was more aggressive, more ac
curate, and more" sensational. Erwin

Program Deals With Industrial, Ur

North Carolina.
The program for the North Caro
lina Club for the remainder of the
year deals with industrial, urban, and
rural problems which are of vital
concern to the State, and which de
serve more interest from the student
body than like matters have here-to-fore
received.
The Club working with the De
partment of Rural Economics has
thoroughly investigated these prob

discuss them in detail, and furnish
Regulations governing the contest
for the Prestn cup in journalism
have just been announced by the
English department. The rules this
year are similar to those used here
tofore, but the material will not be
required to be handed in until May 1,
instead of April 1, as was formerly
required.
The Preston cup is awarded annu
ally to the undergraduate student
who does the best work of a jour
nalistic nature during the college
year. This does not mean that the
work written especially for the con
test will be ruled out, however, pref
erence will be shown to that exhibit
of journalistic work which has been
the natural development of the
year's work.
The awarding of the cup will be
based on the display of work as
shown in the exhibits of work sub
mitted by the contestants. Each stu
dent must submit an exhibit showing
three different classes of material.
The three divisions are as follows:
1 (a) Feature
1,000 words, or
(b) News story,
words.
2 (a) Editorial,
(b) Book review.
imum 300 words.
3 (a) Verse.
(b) Sketches (descriptive or nar
rative). Length, no single story to
be over 400 words.
One entry must be made for each
of the first two divisions and there
members of the sophomore class went
to young McClure's room Sunday
night about 11:30 o'clock.. They are
reported to have told him after enter
ing his room, "we have come for
you."
McClure's story to college authori
ties is to the effect that he arose from
his bed, turned on the light, and took
a seat on the bed.
McClure said further that young
Erooks advanced on him and took
hold of his right arm. It was then,
he asserts, that he drew his knife
and from under the bed clothing and
wielded a side stroke at his adver
sary.
The knife blade entered Brooks'
chest, sliehtlv piercing the cavity. It
left a dangerous appearing wound.
The assault abruptly brought an end
to the hazing party.
As a follow-up to the affair, college
authorities have been informed, Mr.
Small a fraternity mate of young
Brooks, went to McClure's room in
regard to the affair. Just what oc
curred is not entirely clear. It is
known, however, that McClure struck
Small with his fist inflicting a severe
abrasion on his chin. Young Mc
Clure charges that Mr. Small insult
ed him. It was then, he said, that
he struck his visitor. The skin on
Mr. Small's right cheek was broken,
and McClure's hand was so badly
1 bruised he had it treated by a phyai-
cian.
The Sunday night affair is the first
of its kind to develop at the college
since Christmas, and students declare
the campus has been exceedingly free
from this practice since the sopho
more class, a short time after the
opening of the fall term met and
voluntarily drew up resolutions con
demning hazing. , The members of
the class pledged themselves to re
frain from activities of this type.
College officials yesterday express
ed themselves as deeply regretful
that the episode of last night occur
red. They are making a thorough
investigation, but up until last night
no official statement had been made.

Holy Redeemer."
The differences between the appro
priations committee and the pro
ponents of the Senate $20,000,000
program for State institutions reach
ed an agreement following a confer
ence with Governor Morrison and
the above amendments were added.
The Governor laid the compromise
before Senator McCoin and Repre
sentative W. N. Everett, Chairmen
of the two appropriation committees
and Senator Long of Halifax and
Representative Murphy, two foremost
exponents of the Citizen's Bill. The
Governor strongly urged his proposal
in the interest of harmony, and all
those in the conference supported
the proposition as a real compromise.
The measure was presented on the
floor of the Senate Tuesday after
noon and all the warring factions
voted for it with the exception of
Senator Dunlap. .Senator McKinney,
as member of the Appropriations
Committee, disclaimed any responsi
bility if this measure resulted in a
deficit in the State funds.

and Faculty.
A get together Carolina smoker
will be held Wednesday night, March
9, in Swain hall, at which different
stunts will be pulled off. The entire

to promote a spirit of unity upon
the campus and between the students
and faculty that has not been as
