COSTLYBUNGLES RESPONSIBLE FOR
LOSS OF FIRST COLLEGIATE GAME;
DAVIDSON D EFEATS CAROLINA 9 T05
Singing, dancing and canine com
bats were some of the most popu
lar acts of the opening (and prob
ably the closing) of the cabaret fea
ture of Gooche's Cafe, last Sunday
night. Beautiful young sylphs and
an entertaining male chorus were se
cured at great cost' from the stage of
one of the grandest theatres in this
part of the country, particular at
tention being paid to the Venus like
forms and the Glukish voices of the
young ladies.
The opening of this attraction was
kept a secret from the public as the
management wished to agreebly sur
prise the patrons. This was done so
successfully that when the quintet
pranced into the spacious arena, three
men fell off their stools and no less
than seven cups were severely bit
ten. The entertainers brought their
own music with them; a victrola was
mysteriously produced from a suit
case, and all the ladies were skilful
with that soothing instrument from
Hawaii, the ukelele. The well
groomed men joined in on all selec
tions, producing wonderful harmony.
A surprise feature of the perform
ance was the ferocious battle be
tween two snarling brutes of the
genus Canis. At the beginning of
this fight all the ladies sprang nimb
ly to the top of tables and counters,
and began to wind gracefully in and
out of the sugar bowles and vine
gar cruits, displaying, to the admir
ing audience, their wonderful form
in dancing. The scribe does not re
member exactly what happened to
the dogs.
, ... At a late hour the performance
ended, the young ladies having press
ing engagements. There is a report
that the cabaret will be discontinued
on account of a petition from the
Waiters' Union, who claim that the
enormous crowds drawn by the en
tertainments are more than they can
handle.

TALKS OF GROWTH OF
Dr. Venable Speaks on the Old Sys
tem of Government Here and
Its Development.
Speaking in chapel Monday morn
ing, April 11, Dr. Venable, head of
the chemistry department, spoke of
student government of the days
when he was president and of its
growth since then. He told of the
system of monitors that used to be
in every dormitory to keep order.
He told of the fines imposed for frac
ture of the rules. He said if a sopho
more did something wrong the whole
sophomore class would take his side
in the trials held every afternoon in
Gerrard Hall, with a member of the
senior class presiding. The different
classes sided with their individual
members and the system was inade
quate to cope with the situations as
they arose. Dr. Venable then told
how, under his presidency, the re
organization took place. He left the
working out of the honor system to
the students themselves, and it has
steadily improved since then until it
is the fine thing it is now, continued
Dr. Venable.
He then spoke on the purpose of
the University not to fill the beads
of students with facts only but to
train them for citizenship. Dr. Ven
able in closing urged the students
to measure up to their responsibili
ties to themselves and to the Uni
versity and to their communities.
season
held Monday afternoon in Durham,
when Carolina won out over Trin
ity by the overwhelming score of
77-49. Despite unfavorable weather
conditions some good "times" were
registered, and Carolina sprang a
few surprises in some of the show
ings made.
Sinclair came out first in the 220
yard dash, Yates finished first in the
high hurdles, Hanson took first in the
two-mile run, and Martin took first
place in the discus throw. Captain
Royall was first in the 440-yard dash,
and Smiley captured first place in the
pole vault. This gave Carolina a
total of eight first places, which to
gether with second places in the 100
yard dash, mile run, low hurdles,
high hurdles, high jump, broad jump,
and shot put, was enough to easily
conquer the Methodists.
Trinity made the better start in
the meet, winning first places in the
first three events. Barnhardt won
the 100 with Sinclair, who got a late
start, close behind; Powell took the
mile, making it in 4.38, thereby
breaking his state record of last year;
and Scott won the low hurdles with
Carmichael and Parker coming in
second and third, respectively. Par
ker was due to win this event, being
several paces in the lead, but he sus
tained a nasty fall that eleminated
him from the race.
In the evnts that followed it was
mostly Carolina. The team worked
magnificiently, and displayed wonder
ful possibilities. The work of Sin
clair and Yates, who were in their
first intercollegiate meet was bril
liant. ' Sinclair came out far ahead
of O. E. Barnhardt in the 220, thej
latter taking second place over L. W.
Barnhardt. Yates won the high hur
dles easily with Carmichael, another
Carolina man, taking second place.
coast line processes of Asia and
North America bordering on the Pa
cific ocean.
Dr. Cobb while away circled the
entire Pacific ocean studying care
fully the shores and harbors of the
United States, Canada, Alaska, Si
beria, China and Japan. While away
Dr. Cobb sent in samples of minerals
and soils of the different countries
that he visited. Because of the
friendly cooperation of the Japanese
government, Dr. Cobb was able to ex
plore out of the way places in per
fect safety. Dr. Cobb pays glowing
tribute to the friendliness and the
spirit of the Japanese.
Dr. Cobb spoke in chapel Tuesday
morning and described some of his
experiences while away. He said
that the United States and Japan
would never go to war unless the
American people brought it on. He
spoke of his old Japanese students
that he met in Japan and the pleas
ure he was afforded by them. He
told of their great courtesy. He then
told of the conditions of the Japan
ese-American relations as he observed
them in California. He said that
the trouble with Americans is that
they are made tired with the mere
contemplation of the amount of
work that Japanese accomplish. He
said that the trouble was not so much
in higher standards of living but in
the high cost of loafing.
While away Dr. Cobb contributed
to papers in America in regard to
some of his findings and observa
tions while in the Far East.
CHAPEL HILL COMMUNITY
CLUB STARTS MOVEMENT
General Drive Now on Foot For De
veloping and Beautifying Town
and Campus.
TWO STUDENTS GET
ONES UNDER HORACE
"Clean and beautify Chapel Hill,"
is the present motto of the Chapel
Hill Community Club, and the mem
bers of this live organization are
going full tilt in order to carry out
their plan. The health department
has now on foot a drive to clean the
town, not only on the streets, but
also in the stores and markets; incin
erators are urged as part of the
equipment of all the concerns that
handle food. Dr. Odum is receiving
substantial support from the club,
with his plan of developing, and
beautifying the town and campus, a
plan that is to be worked out during
the next few years.
The town elections that are to be
held in May are also getting attention
from the Community Club, and it is
th r inter i:;i to hoM a large miss
meeting before the eleition dpy.
The Community Club grew out of
the School Betterment Association,
an organization which was largely re
sponsible for the building of the new
public school in Chapel Hill. After
it became the Community Club, it
took new activities upon itself and
began to improve all phases of com
munity life. A new market was es
tablished because of its efforts; a rest
room installed for the visiting folk
from the country, and a piano pre
sented to the school. Besides this
the club began to preach sanitation
to the local merchants and have in
stalled some much needed improve
ments. Under Mrs. Harrer, the present
president, the club is as active as
ever beiore ana puit w v

stated before is three-fold: to get
the students together, to provide rec
reation under proper supervisoin and
to develop the campus socially. The
proceeds will go to the band recent
ly organized by J. Y. Jordan, which
is at present in heed of funds, and
which is filling a long felt need on
the campus. The dance has the ap
proval of the faculty and will be
properly chaperoned. The regular
German Club rules will be strictly en
forced and stags are reminded here
that it will be necessary that they
remain on the sides of the floor to
allow the center to be used for danc
ing. The moral support of the cam
pus is solicited by The Grail in order
to make this dance as good and better
than those of the past.
Music will be furnished by the
Tar Baby Five and a small charge
of 50c will be made to those danc
ing. A budget of the receipts and
expenditures will be published at a
later date in The Tar Heel, and all
amounts left over after defraying ex
penses will be turned over to the
band to buy music and instruments,
A large crowd is expected and a num
ber of high school girls over for the
annual inter-high school debates will
no doubt be present.

Y. JORDAN'S BAND
IS GOING STRONG NOW
During the Easter holidays Dr.
O'ederick H. Koch, professor of Dra
matic Literature, made a lecture trip
through sections of the middle west
and east, returning via New York
where he availed himself of the op
portunity and took in several shows,
making a study of the plays present
ed, being especially interested in
those dealing with folk drama.
On March 23rd and 24th, Dr. Koch
delivered two lectures before the
Drama League of Chicago on the sub
ject "Folk Playmaking." A few days
later before an audience of towns
people and students at Grinell Col
lege, a co-educational college in Gri
nell, Iowa, under the auspices of the
English Department of that institu
tion, Dr. Koch delivered an illus
trated lecture on "Folk Playmaking."
He also gave special addresses on
"The Community Drama" and "The
Theatre Today" before students and
faculty groups, and had conferences
with various students and professors
concerning the development of the
drama at Grinell.
While in New York City Dr. Koch
took advantage of the opportunity of
seeing 'what was what in playmaking
in the play house of America and
went to several fine shows in the me
tropolis. He was very much encourag
ed as to the promising outlook of the
American theatre today. Among the
plays indicative of this now current
in New York and seen by Dr. Koch,
in the success of which he was par
ticularly interested and gratified, are
such folk plays as "The First Year,"
by Frank Craven, a comedy of vil
lage life in the middle west; "Shav
ings," a play dealing with the fisher
folk of Cope Cod, and "Miss Lulu
Bett," by Zona Gale, a play dealing
with the folk life of Wisconsin. "St.
John Ervine's Irish folk play, 'Mixed
Marriage,' was particularly impres
sive," said Dr. Koch.
Two new plays by Eugene O'Neil,
the author of "Beyond the Horizon,"
called "Dif'rent" and "The Emperor
Jones" was illustrative of the au
thor's best work. Mr. O'Neil's play,
"Beyond the Horizon," last year won
In the new issue of the Alumni
Review recently appeared, a large
part of the space is given to a dis
cussion of the recent campaign of
the colleges and schools throughout
the State in the interest of higher
education. All the phases of the
campaign and the chief and small
sources of aid in the campaign are i
exhaustively treated. -
There are also long articles dis
cussing the coming activities of the
classes on June the 14th, of the com
mencement week, and the entering of
Carolina in the Southern Inter-collegiate
Athletic Association, both of
which subjects are always of great
est interest to alumni. Mr. Lenoir
Chambers, in an article entitled
'Alumni of the Fourth Estate," tells
about the alumni of Carolina in the
various phases of newspaper work
and other literary work. He also re
cites the influence that The Tar Heel
and The Carolina Magazine have ex
erted on Carolina alumni who have
been connected with them.
These articles combined with the
editorials and the letters from the
various classes make the April issue
of the Review a very interesting one.

In the April issue of The Drama,

of the theatre sponsored by the
Drama League of America, there is
written by an editor a review of the
book Raleigh, The Shepherd of the
Ocean, written by Dr. F, H. Koch,
professor of Dramatic Literature in
the University, and published by the
Edwards and Broughton Printing Co.,
a North Carolina, publisher. The edi
tor writes a lengthly article on that
pageant-drama, praising Dr. Koch for
his remarkable skill in handling his
material, and describing the pageant
as a revelation of the richness and
significance of the Elizabethan
period. A half-page illustration of
the pageant is also carried in the
magazine.
In the April issue of the Ladies
Home Journal there appears an in
teresting description of the pageant
drama, Raleigh, The Shepherd of the
Ocean, produced in Raleigh last fall.
Several fine illustrations also appear
with the story.

Playing a rather ordinary game of
baseball throughout the first ten
frames and going up completely in
the eleventh, when Carolina bunched
errors and Davidson bunched hits,
Fetzer's warriors lost their first col
legiate game for 1921 on Emerson
field Tuesday afternoon. The David
son aggregation scored five runs in
that fatel eleventh and drew away
from a 4-4 tie, a tie which, incidently,
had been more of a present from
the fate's to Carolina. The game
ended Davidson 9, Carolina 5.
The Presbyterians sprang a neat
surprise and presented a clever, clean
and slashing article of baseball that
ushered an over confident Carolina
clan off its feet and out of the lime
light. Currie started on the mound
for the visitors and offered an as
sortment of slow, dazzling hooks,
with a good fast ball, which was com
bined in such a neat change of pace
that the heavy hitting Tar Heels
looked sick for several frames. In
the sixth and seventh his offerings
were gobbled up by what seemed to
be a transformed hitting crew, Caro
lina tying a three run lead, and in
the eighth Hunter was sent in the
box, and Carolina was able to score
only one, that coming in the eleventh
after the game had been placed in
a refrigerator.
Davidson started early, scoring two
in the first inning when Shepard
tripled to center, bringing in two
ahead of him. After that Bryson,
who twirled for Carolina, tightened
up and held Davidson scoreless till
the fifth. In this frame Davidson
scored another on very poor baseball
on the part of the Tar Heels. In
the sixth the Presbyterians got still
another tally across through Carolina
errors.
Carolina was unable to score till
the fifth inning when Fetzer's charges
pushed one across, mostly through
luck, Bryson's pop up rolling safe.
In the sixth Shirley delivered in a
big pinch, bringing in two, and in
the following frame Morris drove out
a terrific triple to center that sent
Bryson across the rubber with the
tying score.
After Carolina tied the score fans
sat back in the stands with a new
born confidence, and waited for a
repetition of the finals in the Wake
Forest classic.
It was in the eleventh that David
son sewed up the contest, when John
son and Ratchford got on by errors,
and a later bungle let in a run that
started the merry-go-round. Hod
gin and Cassell lined out sacrifice flies
that sent two across, and Crawford
sent in Brown with a nice home run
through the center field hedge. Car
olina's last run in her half of the
eleventh acquired through Sweet
man's walk and two pilfered bases,
and Shirley's timely single, was to no
avail.
