! 11 JLLli UJ Volume XXIX Chapel Hill, N. C, Tuesday, April 26, 1921. No. 55 1 1 EXTENSIVE BUILDING TO AT AN EARLY DATE Construction Engineer Arrive and Prepares for Operation Rail road and Labor Camp First. 1 MILLION IN 18 MONTHS At a recent meeting of the Execu tive Committee of the Board of Trus tees of the University held in Raleigh the recommendations of the Build ing Committee of the Board for the retention of Mr. Thomas C. Atwood, one of the best known construction engineers in the United States, to be in direct charge of the work of extending the plant of the University, and the immediate beginning of building operations in Chapel Hill were ratified. This is final and means that the Building Committee has em barked on the biggest building pro ject the University has ever known'. At first the unsettled state of the bond market, which was clearly ex emplified upon the failure of Gov ernor Morrison to sell state bonds on his recent trip to New York, gave indications that building operations at the University would have to be delayed. But wtih adequate assur ances by members of the Board of Trustees that loans sufficient to keep the work going will be syndicated among the bankers of the state, coupled with the willingness of alumni of the University to finance the building program until the state is able to make advantageous use of its credit, all financial uncertainties have been thrust into the back ground. Mr. Atwood arrived on the Hill last Wednesday and will remain here until the entire project is carried out. He brings his own organization with him and will have offices at No. 10 alumni building. As executive officer of the Building Committee he will act for it in the placing of con tracts and in the general supervision and inspection of the work, and he will be directly responsible for the biggest piece of construction work the University has ever known. For the past two weeks construc tion experts have been in Chapel Hill looking over the ground and planning the work. Tn the beginning of building operations, which will start shortly, a spur track about, a mile and a quarter long will lie built from Carrboro to the vicinity of the building area on the campus, prob ably in the neighborhood of th.3 pow er plant. Construction experts con sulted have said that such a spur to haul materials would pay for itseJf in two years of hauling. To un- (Continued on Page Three) PROF. WEAVER iCH WORK IN STATE Head of Department of Music Busy in Conducting Community Sings. During the present scholastic year under the auspices of the University Bureau of Extension, Prof. B. J. Weaver of the University Music De partment, has been doing work throughout the state. He has made trips to all parts of the state to help in conducting community sings and in organizing permanent community choruses under local leadership. He has received many invitations to at tend musical meetings ofall kinds and to lecture before many organizations. The calls are mostly for leadership of community sings, ectures on com munity music, and organization of community choruses. The usual proceedure of the work is for Mr. Weaver to lead a well advertised sing, in a given town. On this trip he also gives lectures to representative organizations such as the Woman's Club, Rotary and Ki wanis Club, etc. At the meeting of the community sing permanent choruses are organized. In his lec tures Mr. Weaver has interpreted "Community Music' 'as meaning any thing that will aid in the developing the music of the community. Through this interpretation he is often called upon to help organize and promote music in the public schools, pain "mu sic programs for clubs, etc. This year Mr. Weaver has lectured before a number of the schools and colleges of the state, before the Slf te Federation of Music Clubs, the State Council of Physical Education Teacn ers, and the State Teachers' Asjen: bly. Late in May he is going out for a week of organ ratals in the l'f -1 ferent towns of tin State. CLEMSON LIKELY ON FODMSCHEDULE V. M. I. Game to Go to Norfolk. Davidson Contest Stays at Winston-Salem. There has been an honest effort for the past few weeks on the Dart of the University athletic authorities to arrange a football game with the Clemson College team for September 24th in Charlotte. The Clemson athletic authorities have written requesting a place on the football schedule and if satis factory financial arrangements can be made it is almost a certainty that the University team will play the Clem son team in Charlotte on September 24th. There has been a good deal of hesitancy on the part" of the Uni versity athletic authorities in arrang ing a game before the University opens, coupled with the desire to have another game on the Hill, only the Wake Forest and Virginia games be ing scheduled to be palyed on Emer son field. There was an attempt to arrange a game with Trinity for an open Saturday in October, but she declined the invitation. Clemson and Carolina have not met since 1915 when Carolina won a close game. According to an announcement by Graduate Manager Woolen, the Caro lina-Davidson game will be played in Winston-Salem as heretofore, the au thorities in that city having indicated their willingness to place at the dis posal of the two institutions the use of a park sufficiently large to accom modate the vast crowds expected to attend the game. Charlotte made a strong bid for the game. At the request of the V. M. I., athletic authorities the Carolina-V. M. I. game, which for the past sev eral years has been played on Emer son filed, has been transferred to Norfolk, although other Virginia cities were active bidders for the contest. Norfolk is a great football town, several inter-collegiate games being played there each fall, the most notable being the N. C. State-V. P. I. contest, and it is thought that by staging the game there the financial situation of athletics at CaWnu vill be greatly improved. DEAN BRAOSKAW SPEAKS OF VITAL THINGS IN LIFE Tells Freshmen Three Great Parts of Every Man's Life Are Necessary. Francis Bradshaw, dean of stu dents, gave a very interesting and practical talk to the freshman class in chapel Thursday morning, April 20. He very clearly showed why the fathers of the state, who are giving their sons better advantages and op portunities than they had, are in many cases disappointed in their sons. Men come to college to have their minds trained for success and many think that the class room work is the onlv thine of importance in col lege life. "But class- room activities touch only one-third of your life,' said Mr. Bradshaw. There are three parts to a man's life and each has a great importance in developing him into a man. One of these things has already been men tioned, and of the other two-thirds, one-third is association with fellow students, and the other third is char acter, the solid portion of a man's personality. To a great extent, Mr. Bradshaw showed the college boys ot today is not confronted with the ob stacles which assailed his father. "The winds of life are the necessities of life, and the college boy is pro tected from hem as the willows in the hollows." Unless he can fill this lack of conflict with the achieve ments for a goal which it will touch his very soul to get, his character will lark the streneth that it should have gained. "A life that is free from handicaps and struggle will lack Mat third essential, strength of charac ter." "It does not make any dif ference how many assets a man has in material things, if he has in mm the determination to 'win there is nothing that can stop him." POEMS FOR COLLEGE ANTHOLOGIES DUE NOW The English Department has re cently received an announcement from the editors of The College An- j thologies requesting all students who wish to submit poems for Vol. V of! The Poets, of the Future (The Col-1 lege Anthology for 1920-1921), or short stories for Vol. II of The Best College Short Stories, to send their manuscripts to Dr. II. T.

ROBERSDN AGAIN NOMINATED Chapel Hill Planning to Co-Operate With the University in Beauti fying the Village. At an informal mass meeting of citizens of Chapel Hill held in the high school auditorium last week, Mayor Roberson was informally nom inated for re-election as mayor. Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt, Dr. H. W. Odum, Mr. J. M. Cheek, Mr. Ralph Andrews and Mr. Moody Durham were inform- ally nominated for aldermen. I At this meeting a great deal of discussion was held concerning the beautification of Chapel Hill. The citizens want to make Chapel Hill a model town. With this view in mind the Community Club and citizens are determined to co-operate with the University in the beautification of the town alongside with the growth of the University. With actual con struction work to be begun in a few weeks, University authorities and townspeople are .preparing to house the great number of workmen who will make their homes in Chapel Hill for an indefinite period. Optimism concerning the tremend ous growth and future prosperity of the University has caused real estate in this village to rise rapidly in value during the past few months. Prices for real estate have been quoted much higher than the normal price. The citizens believe that now is the time in the beginning of the real growth of the University and com munity to begin carrying out their plans of making Chapel Hill a model town. The men nominated have only been informally nominated or sug gested as candidates for the above named offices. The formal nomina tions for candidates of the Demo cratic party will probably take place at a mass meeting of the townspeo ple in May. in care of The Stratford Company, 12 Pearl Street, Boston, Mass., not later than May 15, 1921. Past volumes of The College An thology series contain class poems and short stories written by stu dents of the leading universities of the country.

The teaching staff of the School of Education has been fairly over whelmed during the past month, by invitations from the high schools all over the state to deliver commence ment addresses. It has been their policy to accept as many of these invitations as possible, so during this period of the year they are overload ed, to do both their regular work and this additional work also. Professor Noble made a speaking tour of the Eastern part of the state during Thursday, Friday and Satur day of the past week. On this trip he visited the schools of Rutherford County and delivered the county commencement address at Ruther fordton on Friday. Dr. Knight delivered an illustrated lecture on consolidated schools in (Continued on Page Four) SECOND GAME OF SERIES WON FROM VIRGINIA IN GREENSBORO BY SCORE OF SEVEN TO THREE THE STAGE IS SET FOR THREE ONE ACT PLAYS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY "The Chatham Rabbit," "The Reap, ing," and "In Dixon' Kitchen" Will Be Given. TWO COMEDIES THIS TIME After a month of intensive re hearsals, the sixth series of original one act plays is ready for production by the Carolina Playmakers, April 29th and 30th. This series consists of one tragedy and two comedies. The scene for "The Chatham Rab bit" is laid in a fraternity hall at the University of North Carolina. One of the fellows who is a football hero from Chatham county and the most popular man in. the fraternity, is being teased because of his al leged bashfulness. He at last makes a bet to the effect that without the aid of his money or reputation he will by the beginning of school next year rejoice in the possession of a fiance. A little later in the evening when the St. Mary's basketball team, over to play the Co-eds, is enter tained at the fraternity house, the Chatham Rabbit shows that under certain circumstances he can lay his bashfulness aside. The scene for John Terry's trag edy, "The Reaping," is a home in the suburb? of a city in North Caro lina. A young business man and his bride are having a birthday party in her honor in their new house. The wife is taken with an illness which for some time had troubled her, but which she has kept secret from her husband. The doctor speaks plain ly pointing out that there must be a reaping- to the wild cats which the young man had sowed in his youth. "In Dixon's Kitchtn" the romance bv Wilbur Stout, pictures a pleasant side of country life. The curtain! rises on the family enjoying an abundant , country supper, after the meal, Lem Isley, who is starting an early call on Annie Lee Dixon, as sists her in washing the dishes, the other members of the family being finally corraled in the other room (Continued on Page Three) FRED'S FRESHMEN TRIM 'S Coffey's Iron Arm is too Much for Bingham Freshmen Win Five to Three. Playing with the same form as in the Oak Ridge game, the freshmen sent the Bingham team back to it's mountain stronghold to the tune of 5 to 3 last Saturday. C)fl."ey hurled the horsehide beautifully, and with the exception of the first inning, had the Binghamites at his mercy, ten men passed out by the swinging gate route and no free ticket1 to first were issued. Three singles were the culmination of the mountaineer's ef forts. Burns, for the visitors, also proved to be a twirler of no mean ability, he caused five Carolinians to throw their bats on the ground and "cuss" the umpire, but the eight hits that he allowed were conclusive evi dence. The outstanding feature of the game was Pittman's sensational stab of Bennett's long drive to left field. With his bare right he snatch ed the flying pill from the ozone and robbed Bennett of a clean dou ble. ' Bingham got the lead in the first act when they made two of their three hits and scored as many runs. The Freshmen also captured a tally in the first, added two more in the second and another in the third. Bingham got another run in the sixth with the aid of two errors and their final hit. The Freshmen finished their scoring in the sevejith when with the bases full Burns walked Fox and forced Wright in. The Bingham team was coached by Nemo Coleman, who was the captain of the 1919 football team, that put the kibosh on Virginia with a six to nothing score. Score by innings: R. H. E.

Umpires, Yoder and Lewel'.yn Bryson Pitching Wins His Fourth Straight from Virginia. 6,000 WITNESS THE GAME Captain Harison Pitches for Virgin ians, Morris and Llewellyn Di vide Batting Honors. Hitting the pill hard and frequent ly, Coach Fetzer's slugging Car olina nine triumphed over her an cient rivals, the University of Vir ginia, in Greensboro Saturday by the score of 7 to 3. It was not a par ticularly exciting contest as Carolina showed after the third inning the way the game was going and Vir ginia never even threatened to. win the contest. Nevertheless the scrap was interesting throughout, Bryson pitching himself out of several tight holes in great style, and Harrison pitching good ball except for a bad inning or two. Herman Bryson was on the mound for the Tar Heels, and he twirled a very steady, effective game, allow ing but eight hits and three runs. Captain Harrison, the veteran of the Virginia corps, pitched brilliantly for the first three innings. In the fourth frame three timely hits, coupled with two miserable miscues, netted Caro lina two scores, and in the fifth the captain was cruelly treated by the slugging Tar Heels. Three hits, two walks and a hit batter gave the Blue and White men four tallies. Dis counting these two innings Harrison acquitted himself nicely. The two pitchers each struck out six men. The contest, generally speaking, was devoid of sensational brilliancy, requiring two hours and 30 minutes to play the nine innings. The nearest thing to a spectacular play came in the first inning. Mahood caught one of Bryson's hooks and belted it into center field for one bag. Prichard shot a sizzling grounder to McLean who tossed to McDonald. McDonald, by a quick throw, nabbed Prichard at first for a double elimination. The spectators, many of them Glorious Girls from the Greensboro college and North Carolina College for Wo 1 men, applauded hysterically. Spruill, at the initial post for Car olina, copped the fielding honors of the battle, while Captain Harrison, for the Old Dominion state, landed the batting trophy, with two doubles far into the massive crowds in the outfield. Virginia, in the toss up, lost, and took first turn at the plate. Mahood shot the second ball pitched by Bry son into centerfield for a base. Prich ard dribbled a hot one to McDon ald, who tossed the spheroid to Mc Lean. The second Mack shot it to Spruill for a double play. Sexton sent a slow one to Bryson and was eliminated at first. Bryson won undying fame in the third chapter. Carrington and Par rish struck out in rapid succession. The Asheville youth possibly a bit perturbed with so many compliments being showered upon him by the stands, presented Captain Harrison with a free pass to first. Mahood shot a wicked liner into Bryson's glove. Carolina was at the mercy of Harrison in her part of the third inning. . In the fourth stanza Bryson pitch ed himself out of a bad situation. Prichard, the first man up, lambasted the ball into the seething crowd in right field, taking second, according to the ground rules. Sexton, nerv ous with anxiety to register his cap tain, breezed the atmosphere. Tav enner made a desperate effort to land the ball in safe territory, but his hard hit fly was captured by Lowe. It was a nice catch and he was round ly cheered by the 5,000. The ten sion was dispelled when Stauffer fol lowed in the footsteps of Sexton taking the count on three swift ones. Young Bryson came to the dugout amid the applause of a multitude of admirers. ........ Carolina launched a grand push in the fourth inning. F. Morris start ed the attack, securing the first hit off of Harrison. It was a single to center, but the runner pulled up at second through Tavenner's error. Spruill went out with a high fly to Carrington. Llewellyn hit safely to leftfield, scoring Morris. It was a close decision and caused the Vir ginians to complain bitterly. Par rish, the Virginia catcher, had plenty of time to tag Morris had. he been (Continued on Page Four
