No. 44 ina Quint Wins The State Championship " IE i BASEBALL PRACTICE IS IN STEADY PROGRESS UNDER COACH FETZER Indications Point to Some Lively Battle for the Several In field Positions. FORTY CANDIDATES OUT Working with a squad of nearly 40 candidates Coach Fetzer has been driving his 1921 baseball charges at top rate speed during the .second week of practice. Already he has lined up a couple of teams who are showing almost mid-season form in fielding, and who have been hitting the pill with great facility. ; With Casey Morris catching, Spruill on first, McLean at second, Lowe at third and McGee at short, one smooth-working outfit held its own in hot infield drills last week. For another team Coach Fetzer used Shir ley at first, shifted Lowe to second, Bobbins at Short and Fred Morris on third. McGee was placed at the receiving end. Both infields looked promising enough, and a little shift ing and re-arrangement by Fetzer should make an infield that will work like a machine, with some lively sub stitutes. At the close of the basket ball season McDonald, shortstop on Patterson's freshman team last year, will don his baseball togs and will make Fetzer another valuable in field man. Spruill and Shirley will have a lively tilt for the regular job on the first sack. Both these- men look good in the early work-outs. Shir ley, perhaps, has the edge on Spruill in the fielding game, being a great (Continued on Page Four) MUSICAL CLUBS PLEASE' LARGE AUDIENCES HERE "Back to Hill" Entertainment Com plete Success Large Audience Taxes Capacity of Gerrard. Returning from a successful tour of (he principal eastern Carolina cities the Musical Clubs of the Uni versity gave their "Back to the Hill" performance in Gerrard Hall Wednes day. The program was a success from every point of view, and visibly pleased every one of the audience that taxed the capacity of the Hall. "A Song of College Days" by the Glee Club and Orchestra commenced the program with a spirit and vim that was kept throughout the entire evening. "Symphonic Syncopations" by the Tar Baby Five drew several encores as did "College Medley" and "Wachaniuscallem" by the Mandolin Club. The several orchestral selec tions were also very favorably re ceived, .and the Glee Club rendered very well its negro spiritual and cottonfield melody selections. Mr. Nichols rendition of "I Hear You Calling Me" was a distinct hit. His two humorous ditties also vastly amused the audience which was per sistent in its demands for encores. Mr. Everett's "Give a Man a Horse," showed just how effective a deep voice may be in a solo part. "Buck" Wimberly resurrected "Casey Jones" to the delight of all present, and after the storm of ap plause had died away he came back with "The Reply to Casey Jones" heard for perhaps the first time in these parts.

Dl SOCIETY AGAINST 7 Society Defeats Resolution Provid ing for Management of Affairs by Students and Faculty. After a brief discussion, the Di. society voted down the resolution, "Resolved, That the Di. society go on record as favoring co-operative government between the University officials and the student body", at its meeting Saturday night. The subject was explained by T. L. Warren who said that it applied to the control of such matters as the management of Swain Hall, Athletic Association treasury, and other .- University administration. Only two speakers arose to debate the question. C. T. Boyd opposed the measure, saying that the Univer sity officials are paid to do this and that the students are here for a dif ferent purpose. He declared that such work is not the business of the students, and that it would be of no use to take over the work that be longs to the University officials. In stead of doing this, he suggested that the best means of obtaining a thor ough understanding between the ad ministration and the student body would be for the University officials to retain entire control of the ad ministration but to puklish a com plete report of what they are doing. Chas. L. Nichols was the only speaker taking issue with the nega tive. While not approving of the measure as it was stated, he advo cated what he called a "representa tive democracy," referring to the re cent lecture of Prof. Rucker. His plan was for an executive committee to be elected by the student body which would work in co-operation with the University officials, i At this meeting a motion was pass ed providing for the transfer of the valuable documents and records from the archives room of the society to' the University library; where the whole student body would have ac cess to them, .i. l '. , Z3i T ESI Joint Author of History of Philip pines in 55 Volumes, Here All the Week.

' With music, surprise stunts, eats, smokes, and other attractions slated for the event, the program of ths Carolina Smoker, which has just been announced for Wednesday night, promises to provide an amount of merriment that has not been exceed ed by any such event in some time. The affair will be held at Swain Hall at 8:30, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and will furnish a get together, social meeting for both the students and faculty. A new feature that has been added to the program this year is the per formance of the annual stunts. In the past these were staged at a cer tain time of the year as an independ ent affair, but this year the stunts will be added to the program of the smoker. The Co-eds are also pre paring a surprise in this line. The Satyrs will also provide a part of the entertainment. An attraction that promises to pro vide considerable entertainment is the faculty stunts which Prof. F. H. Kock and some other faculty mem bers are working up. The music will be furnished by three of Carolina's musical organiza tions. The Glee Club quartet, the Tar Baby Five, and the Mandolin Club will all be there to furnish the musical part of the program. Dr. J. M. Booker will officiate as toastmaster, and there will be toasts by Dr. Chase and Rev. Mr. Lawrence, rector of the Episcopal church. The usual eats and smokes will be on hand in abundance. BERRYHILL SPEAKS ON : STUDENT GOVERNMENT President of Student Council Gives Principles on Which Council Must Do Its Work; ' W. R. Berryhill, President of the Senior Class, spoke to the Freshmen in Chapel on the Honor System Wed nesday morning, March 2. "Until the ideal state is reached," said Mr. Berryhill quoting from an article in The Tar Heel of February 25, "when a boy will report his own room-mate, the Student Council must take steps toward apprehending and shipping drunkards." Upon the Honor Sys tem everything in this University is based. The Honor System is the principle that a man is a man and that he counts what he is. It deals with men who are trusted as men. Mr. Berryhill used these facts in illustrating that Student Govern ment here at the University of North Carolina includes every man on the campus. There are two principles brought forth by Mr. Berryhill by which it possible to grow men. The first principle is by the enactment and enforcement of laws. The second principle is the method that prevails on this campus. It is similar to the growth of the oak tree.

PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE By visiting manufacturing plants in a body for the first time, the class in Industrial Management of which Prof. Walter J. Matherly is the in structor, set a precedent last Fri day and Saturday which bids fair to better the methods of teaching in the School of Commerce here. Un der the guidance of Professor Math erly, the class went to Durham in groups and went through two indus trial plants, thus adding the knowl edge of practical manufacturing to the theoretical knowledge the class already possessed. Industrial management is a course which gives the theory of the man agement of industrial enterprises, and seeks to give the student a broad outlook on the whole prob lem of efficiently carrying on an in dustry. Then near the end of the quarter, the entire class is required to personally visit a successful plant in order to get a practical insight in to how a plant is managed. Up to the time, of the visit to the plants in Durham, the class had been reading books on Management, and the instructor had been lectur ing on the questions which came up in regard to the course. The visit was made to make the course com plete, and each student will be re quired to write a paper on the things which he observed on the visit. The general manager of the plants visited -conducted the groups of stu dents through the plants and explain ed the entire processes, making com ment here and there on improve ments that had beeni made, and im provements and innovations which had been proposed. Plants visited were the Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company and the Erwin Cotton Mills. A visit will be made to the Durham Hosiery Mills factory in a very short time. This visit to manufacturing plants is in line with what the University School of Commerce is trying to ac complish in its courses of study. Not only does- the school intend to teach its pupils the theory of economics but also it aims to give practical ex perience in the subjects taught. Sneaking of the visit, Mr. W. D. Carmichael, general manager of Lig gett & Myers, said: "This visit should mean a lot to the students, the University and the State. You men are getting a broad background for your life work, and if you will work hard, courses like this should help you a lot. I congratulate the University on the establishment of such courses." Students who are taking the course were very enthusiastic about the visit when they returned to Chapel Hill, and asserted that they had got a much broader view of industry and management than they had had be fore.

ASK EVERYBODY TO HELP "Clean-Up Week" is once more upon us. The Junior Class, follow ing the precedent set by last year's Junior Class has designated this week to be clean-up week. This year general plans for the carrying out of clean-up week have been some what extended from what they have been in the past. Last year, the campus was the sole object of the week, but the campus, the dormitory rooms, and the toilets on the camp ub will be within the scope of activi ties this time. The official clean-up week started March 7 and will end on March 12. Although this is only one week in which definite work will be done, it is hoped by the Junior Class that the work will continue throughout the year. In other words, the campus and buildings will be given a thorough cleaning next week, and it is up to the students to keep them clean for the rest of the year. Besides the Junior Class, there will be affiliated -in the work Mr. George Pickard'Tand his cohort of janitors and, .ground keepers, Mayor Roberson and .the town street clean ing department, and the Ladies' Clubs of the town.- With all these working for a cleaner Chapel Hill and campus, and with the rest of the students joining in, the week will undoubtedly be a greater success than it was last year. As a matter of convenience, more garbage cans will be placed around the campus. Every scrap of paper, very cigarette box, every banana peeling in short, everything that goes to litter up the ground, should be placed in these cans. They will be placed around the Post Office, around the drug stores, and around the campus buildings. The janitors will stand ready to help every student give his room a thorough spring cleaning. As for the toilets, the janitors will be urged to sweep them often, and students are asked not to throw paper on the floors. To get the work definitely lined up, the Junior Class had a meeting last Thursday night at Swain Hall. Here a committee was appointed to take general charge of the work. On this committee, President Nash appointed P. T. Ranson. COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS TO HOLD CONFERENCE Grant and Hettleman to Attend Southern Inter-Collegiate Newspaper Conference. A Southern Inter-Collegiate News paper Conference will be held in Richmond, April 22nd and 23rd, un der the auspices and at the instiga tion of the Richmond Collegian, the University of Richmond publication'. It will be an important development of the great movement towards bet ter organization of college papers is interesting the amateur journalists all over the country. More specific ally it is a natural result of the state conferences which have recently been held in North Carolina, Vi ginia and other Southern states. The Tar Heel has been invited to I send its representatives to this con iference and Editor Daniel Grant and I Eusiness Manager Phillip Hettleman (Continued on Page Two) By C. T. PARKER, JR. Breaking the jinx that has hover ed persistently over the Raleigh Auditorium Court throughout the history of basketball at Carolina the Blue and White quint last Saturday completely outplayed the Trinity five, and overwhelmed them 55 to 18, clinching the State championship honors for 1921. The victory was as complete as the score indicates. The Tar Heels simply outshot, outpassed, and out guessed their Methodist opponents. From Carolina's first point, made by Carmichael on a foul, there was never a moment of doubt as to the issue of the game, but the two thousand odd spectators were satisfied to fore go the usual sensations of watching a spirited match' between teams near ly equal to witness the overwhelming ly superior playing of the Carolina quint. There was never a moment but that the Trinity players were kept guessing, and at times they appeared completely baffled. Anyway their guards were unequal to the task of keeping the Carolina forwards from getting shots from close under the goal, most of which were effective, while ..the Carolina defenders main tained as well nigh impregnable bar rier about their own goal, forcing the Trinity forwards to make the maj ority;' of , their shots front mid-court or thereabout. Captain Shepherd, leading the quint in his last game of college basketball, co-starred with Carmi chael, leading on the attack, hat left ; Trinity stunned and helpless, and brought indisputably to Carolina the championship of the State. But even the stellar work of these two would have been of no avail without the able co-operation of the other mem bers: Erwin, Hanby, McDonald, and Woodall, who seemed to be possessed of demons when it came to speed, (Continued on Page Four) FAMOUS SINGER WILL BE INJ1AM FRIDAY Miss Florence MacBeth, Coloratura Soprano, to Appear at the Academy of Music. The music lover3 of Chnpel Hill and the University will have an. op portunity to hear, Friday, March 11, at the Durham Academy of Music, one of the most brilliant and most accomplished coloratura sopranos of America, Miss Florence MacBeth. In May, 1913, a fair-haired de butante stepped out on the famous Queen's Hall platform whereon had stood her immortal predecessors and impelled England's noted critics to declare unanimously that there had arisen a star whose magnitude was undimmed by the most brilliant of a by-gone day, one who stood right in a royal line. It was thus that fame came to Florence MacBeth, and Mankato, Minn., her birthplace, in a: single night. ' Miss MacBeth is the entire product of the American pedagogue Yeatman Griffith. For some time she studied in Italy and she made her first bow in Holland. Later she accepted en gagements in Germany and Hunga ry. As Gilda in "Rigoletto" and as Rosina in the "Barber of Seville", i MacBeth advanced more and more toward fame. It is not only in opera where she has proved her greatness but in the concert field as well, whereby her youth, wonderful beauty and charm she has become 'known the country over as "Charming Miss MacBeth," or "MacBeth Charming." So the music lovers of Chapel Hill and the' University will have an op portunity to hear Miss Florence Mac Beth, of the Chicago Opera Company next Friday night in Durham.
