The Co-eds were to have produced this issue of The Tar Heel entirely.
Thfs, however, failed of realization, although much of the material used to
day was prepared by the women students, and the following editorial.
Although many students have engaged in much post-mortem discussion
of whether or not the University should be co-educational or not, the thing
that the student body faces today is enlarging its life so as to include wo
men students as an organic part of University population. We had a fine
situation before when we had only men students. ' That was fine we all
agree, but we must now build for the same finenesses on a new and bigger
basis a basis that will include both men and women.
THE WOMAN STUDENT
The greatest difficulty which women studying at Carolina are forced
to meet is the lack of centralization and organization, resulting primarily
from the widely scattered and isolated rooming places in which they are
forced to live. These conditions make impossible a live social unity such
as exists among the men. Every girl in the University, although realizing
the great advantages to education offered here, deplores the fact that the
camaraderie and endless fun of college life is lacking to them.
The woman student as truly allies herself to the University as the man
student. The women students have attempted to develop this essential
element of college life in many ways, receiving no monetary aid whatever
from the University they have developed a real live interest in athletics.
This has been the first step forward in the development of college morale
and if given whole-hearted support of the University will in time lead to
a yet more keen realization of college spirit among the Co-eds.
SOME PLANS OF STUDENT
GOVERNMENT AS DESCRIBED
(Continued from page 1)
women do not have activities of their
own; they do, plenty of them. The
peculiar thing is that despite their
numerical equality with the men the
men dominate every campus activity.
At Michigan the representatives on
the council are elected on a pro rata
basis of apportionment and the coun
cil generally consists of from twenty
to thirty men. The councilmen must
come from the upper classes and a
junior may serve two years without
reelection. The president of the
council is elected from the student
body at large in popular election.
.Columbia has a written constitution
in which the exact powers of her
council are denned as are also the
penalties attaching to certain offen
ses. At Lehigh the council is com
posed of twenty-eight seniors one
from each fraternity and one from
each dormitory section. The Har
vard council members are entirely
ex-nffirin. i. p fhotr VIA

the council by virtue of some other
omce, as editor of the Crimson or
captain of the football team. Stu
dent government at Penn. State pre
vails in both the college and the town
and no cop has been seen in that
vicinity for years.
A feature of the North Carolina
system which attracted considerable
attention and which I was finally
called upon to explain in detail in
open conference was the campus cab
inet. This grew out of the fact,
long recognized here, that student
government, to be successful must
have a positive and constructive side
as well as a negative and discip
linary side. At Iowa State one of
the largest schools to attempt any
real system of student government
the women exercise their voice in
the council through a woman's guild,
the organization of which is not
unlike our own student council. This
guild is controlled by sororities and
its relationship to the students is es
tablished mainly through this chan
nel. At West Virginia the women
may hold any office not prohibited to
them in the constitution and in gen
eral their privileges are about the
jame as those of the men. The coun
cil of this university is composed of
nine members and a president elected
at large. At least two members on
the council must be women and there
may be more. Amherst has a sys
tem by which dormitory control is
secured through senior adisors equal
in number to the number of dormi
tory sections. This list of advisors
is nominated from the senior class,
passed on to the faculty who may
or may not approve all the men nomi
nated, and then voted upon by the
student body. These proctcis for
such they really are receive nne
hundred dollars a year for their ser
vices. This is a slia-ht variati
the Columbia plan where the two
main undergraduate dormitories are
mviaed, for disciplinary purposes,
into floors which in turn are divided
into classes. Men on each floor elect
a councilman and these in turn elect
a chairman. The members of the
council are held almost entirely re
sponsible for the conduct of the men
under their respective control and
because of this fact individual liberty
in the dormitories is materially re
stricted. Chicago has a faculty head'
in each dormitory. Yale has tio fac
ulty men in dormitories except those
occupied by freshmen. Pennsylvania
is typical of most of the schools rep
resented in the degree to which she
has student government. Here the
dormitories are given over to claise.s
and representative seniors act as proc
tors in freshmen dormitories. A
varietal committee takes final action
on all questions relating to student
discipline and this committee has fac
ulty proctors in each dormitory.
It is easy to see from what has
been said that the colleges repre
sented at the conference do not have
student government as we know it
here at Carolina. Their so-called
student councils concern themselves
for the most part with a feeble in
terest in college activities which here
are left entirely to individuals or j
other organizations and which are no
concern of the council's. As might
be expected, Virginia and Wachir.g
ton and Lee came nearest to the Car
olina system of any of the colleges
represented. If called upon to ay
what was the greatest single influ-
Phillip Hettleman, Carolina's rep
resentative at the Intercollegiate
Peace Oratorical Contest, that met
in High Point last Friday, took the
second prize of $50.00. A. R. White
hurst of Wake Forest won the first
prize with his speech, "The Nemesis
of History." .
Five men spoke in the contest, the
winners df the two prizes, George
Harmon of Trinity; H. G. Self of
Elon, and Wm. A. Wolf of Guil
ford. After ten minutes' deliber
ation the judges announced their de
cision. The contestants were put to
a disadvantage by a delay in start
ing by a picture show that preceded
them was the cause, and it was fully
9 o'clock before they took their seats.
Tho the audience was very attentive,
it was quite small, a rain storm was
probably the reason. The judges
were Mrs. W. C. Jones, Mrs. J. J.
Farris, Rev. J. A. Clark, and Rev.
R. E. Leinbach
Hettleman had for his subject "The
Struggle for Supremacy;" it was a
plea for internationalism that is to be
gained thru disarmament "We are
now in a war," said Hettleman,
war between nationalism and interna
tionalism." Present military leaders,
according to Hettleman, are further
ing nationalism by increasing arms
ments instead of reducing it, all
armaments should be reduced in or
der to gain permanent peace and in
internationalism. ,
NO FINANCIAL RISKS
TAKEN ON BIG GAMES
SCHOLARSHIP TO BE AWARDED
BY NATIONAL CITY BANK
(Continued from page 1)
In addition to their practical bank
work in the various departments the
men in the class persue a course of
study, including foreign languages,
and supplement by a prescribed
course of reading, special lectures
and research work in the bank's li
brary, and, if ' necessary, by outside
research.
Such an, opportunity as member
ship in the college training class in
volves, is a thoroughly unique one
in the United States. No other
American financial institution affords
the scope of service or opportunity
offered by the National City Bank
and its affiliated institutions. Mem
bership in the class mews an oppor
tunity for an attractive career, a
sound education in modern banking
and an opportunity to remain per
manently in the employ of the bank.
All necessary expenses of the men
in coming to New York City to re
port for work are borne by the bank
and a salary of $1,500 per annum
is payable semi-monthly during the
course of training. The men se
lected are trained by the bank to be
international bankers, that is they are
taught to look at banking and other
commercial transactions from a
world-wide viewpoint. They may on
the completion of their training be
assigned to the home office of the
bank or sent to one' of the bank's
foreign branches or assigned to the
International Banking Corporation,
closely affiliated with the bank and
having foreign branches mainly in
the Far East.
Former Carolina men who have
won scholarships are John Washburn,
who is working in a branch house in
Shanghai, China; Emerson White,, J.
D. Boushall, who was assistant man
ager of the Belgium branch until his
return to the states recently; Jack
Powell and Robert DeRossett, both
in Montevideo; and Bob Gwinn, who
is on the staff of the National City
Bank in its home office.
Graduate Manager C. T. Wool( n,
not to be disappointed by rain, at
least not in a financial way, took out
rain insurance policies . with a
Greensboro insurance company the
first part of last week on both Virginia-Carolina
games. The policy
for the Greensboro game last Sat
urday was for several thousand dol
lars, while the policy for the Chapel
Hill game was for a less sum. Need
less to eay, the insurance company
j:ored a home run in the first game,
but Manager Woolen hit the ball
even farther.
: If it had rained Saturday he
would still have been out several
thousand dollars, and that would
have been a hard blow at the finances
of the athletic association. The
Greensboro classic is always a
money-maker, perhaps the biggest of
the collegiate year, and to insure
against the weather in such a case
is always the wisest policy. With-j
out tne pronts accruing from the
"Virginia-Carolina classic in Greens
boro the financial condition of ath
letics at the University would be in
bad to say the least, but now with a
neat sum tucked away in Graduate
Manager Woolen's strong box ath
letic authorities at the University are
further assured that the baseball sea
son this year will be a financial suc
cess.

ence which kept student government
from being a success in northern
schools, I would say without hesita
tion that the trouble lies in their fail-
ure to recognize that student gov
ernment and faculty control cannot
exist together in the same institu
tion. Another factor which undoubt
edly makes student government dif
ficult for the large universities of the
North is the heterogenousness of
their student bodies. Every inter
est and nationality is represented in
their various departments and this,
together with their almost total lack
of any common bond of interests,
makes any well-defined college spirit
a thing necessary to successful stu
dent governmentimpossible.
And it should not be forgotten that
in over 50 per cent, of the institu
tions represented the students were
not allowed any form of self-government
whatever. In these colleges
faculty control, the proctorial sys
tem, and espionage existed in essen
tially the same form that Carolina
knew in the seventies.
The fact that we are in the very
forefront of American universities
in the matter of sq vital a thing as
self-government h)u!d be a source
of constant and justifiable pride for
every Carolina student.
