But aside from the stellar perform ance of George Murray the general honors of the contest all rest with the Tar Heels. They outfielded and outbatted their other eight oppon ents. It was one of those rare oc casions in baseball wh?n the best team lost, yet the winners undoubl edly deserved the victory.' The game began with Carolina striking cold fear in the hearts of Tech supporters by running up three tallies in the very first inning. Sweet man, the first batter up, drove a pretty single to right field and went to second when Kirtcpatrick let the pill roll through his legs. Spruill advanced his teammate to third with a nice bunt and the first run counted on Fred Morris' infield out. uewenyn came tnrougn with a i two base hit, and Shirely beat out a roller to the infield, sending Llewl lyn to third and going down to sec ond on the next pitched ball. John son errijred Roy Morris' grounder, enabling both Llewellyn and Shirley to cross the rubber. Murray retired the side by striking out Wilson. State came back strong in her half i of the first inning. With the bases filled, George Murray, the idol of the Tech student body, came up. He nailed the old apple squarely on the nose. Murray was held at third, but three runs scored ahead of him. The pitcher came home with the fourth when Wilson muffed Routh's pop fly. Wilson recovered and finished the inning by striking out Kirkpatrick and Blue. He continued his pace by whiffing Parsons in the second frame, but then the fireworks began again, Zachery's single, Norwood's double, a base on balls to Johnson and a single by Murray mixing in with an error and wild pitch by Wil son so as to give State College threej more runs. j Hartsell's men rested on their laurels at this point until the sixth inning but in that frame Kirkpatrick produced his third blow of the day, advanced to second on an infield out and scored when McDonald made a wild throw after handling Murray's grounder it seemingly being neces-j sary for Murray to figure in all the runs. The ninth and final tally was scored in the eighth inning, Norwood and Murray again being the produc ing combination. The outfielder got to second when both McDonald and Sweetman let sharply hit ball get through them. Murray drove him borne by sending his second hit of the day to the "mountain." Ordinarily, and on an ordinary o itfielder, the blow would have been a home run. But Shirley is not an oHinary outfielder md George stop ped at second, where he died. Yesterday's game will go down as cue of the surprises of a college sen si n which has been somewhat notah'e or consistent performances. F5 v expected the team that has boweJ before Carolina, Wake Forest and Elon to lose to the outfit that ha.? thrice conquered Virginia and whose only defeat prior to yesterday was i somewhat fiukish Davidson victory. Carolina made 7 difficult fielding Plays time after time and the entire team worked with a machine like unison that was absent from tho ef torts of their opponent, but Murray Proved sufficient in himself to turn the scales.

ENTERTAINING PROGRAM The sportive Bacchus and the spirit of the dance reigned supreme at the Satyr Carnival in Swain Hall i Friday night. The horned Satyrs', the guests in- strange costumes, the swirF df'da'ncftig1- figures amid th play" of colored " light gave a pic turesque and beautiful eect. The Hall was decorated in' blaci and gold', the Satyr colors. The tables were grouped 'so as to leave a large semi circle in the center for dancing and for the performance of the program as follows: '''T. "Dance of the Clowns Dr. and Miss Crozier. - ... 2. Buck Wimberley Himself. 3. Tumbling Gym Team. 4. Satyr Figure -Satyrs. 5. Dance "Wood" Williams and Miss .Tucker. 6. Dance of the Skaters Dr. and Miss Crozier. 7. Grand March Omnes. After the formation of the Satyr figure-head the five new members were introducted into the organiza tion. The men initiated were An thony Combs, Hubert Heft' ner, Bailey Liipfert, Tom Moore and Lloyd Williams. The initiates were tap ped from the audience by means of a colored spot light and conducted to the altar surrounded by the danc ing Satyrs. The initiation ceremony adapted from Aristophane's "The Frogs" was in Greek and was especi ally impressive. This unique tapping and beautiful ceremony was the climax of the program. From Buck Wimberley's bull to the beautiful and artistic dancing of Dr. and Miss Crozier the whole pro gram was crammed full of interest, pleasure and amusement. Punch and sandwiches were served to the laughing crowd and the music from the orchestra kept the joy-chills floating. This general festive spirit of mirth was continued over the week-end by the two dances given Saturday afternoon and evening. The dance Saturday afternoon was given by the Dragons at the Gorgon's Head Lodge, and the same evening The Thirteen gave a formal dance at the Gym. Both dances were highly successful and proved a fitting close to a joyful week-end. THE FIRST SHIPMENT OF YAGKETY 1ACKS ARRIVES No Books Will be Issued Until; All Major Accounts Are Paid.

They have not found it necessary to, leave the influence of the campus in compiling the book. The volume is a complete delinea tion of the entire University. Dif fering from the annuals of the past the new Yackety Yack is not a volume of promiscuous praise and the editors have not refrained from poking a little fun at their digni fied class-mates. The book is divided into four major sections. The first division is that of the University. This includes a scenic division, a section of photo graphs of alumni, a section of ad ministration, a section of the seniors including the history of the class and the pictures, law, pharmacy, junior, sophomore, freshmen classes, and lastly athletics. In the second divisions are the activities. This includes the govern ing bodies, the co-eds, debates, so cieties, publications, dramatics, musi ical organizations, and the dances. The third section is the organiza tion pictures. This section takes in the fraternities, clubs, orders and R. Cv T. C. In the fourth division, surnamed Kampus Kourse, are the Tar Heel, ffc Mntrnzine. discourses, satire, and j a general line of stuff similar to that. "Citizens In The Making- Title Of f. C.

For instance, The Kansas Aggies : m order to tone down the general hilarity of their dances adopted a sygtem whereby supervisors are hired ' to police the dance floor and eject those too far gone to eject them selves. These "supervisors," as the delegate was at pains to explain, are not considered guests and are dis tinctly unpopular among certain ele ments of the college community. A thing that concerned the Delegate from Michigan was the repression of what had proved to be rather un welcome publicity. It seemed that a part of the under-graduate body had taken part on one of those after-the-war excesses, namely, "indulg ence in concoctions of alcoholic con tent," and that the newspapers had played the episode up in what was considered nasty style.

"TVti, 'of Washing ton and Lee, whose denunciation of the scheme as unnecessary and un desirable came within one vote of winning the debate. ' The1 'debate was judged by Profs. W. W. Pierson, Jr., H. M. Wagstaff, F. P. Graham, J. F. Dashiel, and J. T. Krumplenann. Prof. W. S. Bern ard presided over the contest, with F. A. Grisette acting as secretary. From the time that Parker C, Williams took his place as first speaker until the last of the speakers took his seat the audience witnessed a lively battle of argument. Both teams showed themselves to be well prepared on the subject and of course each side was well supplied with statistics to prove almost what ever they desired. The rejoinder proved to be a warm affair. Both sides made the fur fly, good natured ly, and yet spiritedly. . The principal arguments of the affirmative were that the proposed policy of restriction of immigration is expedient and necessary for the protection of our social, political, and economic foundations, and that the immigrant is both unnecessary and undesirable. In proving their assertions, they emphasized the in creasing numbers if immigrants and the change in the type of the immi grant. They stressed the effect that the type of immigrant that now comes to America would have on our social and political institutions, and pictured the lowering of the standards of American living when they compete with the American laborer who must either accept low er standards of living or be dis placed. The negative, in presenting "the claims of a down-trodden and op pressed people," cited the shortage of agricultural labor in this country, the vacant farms, the nation's need of immigrants, and the commend able conduct of the immigrants dur ing the war. The negative speakers claimed the present immigration laws provide for sufficient restric tion of immigration if properly ap plied, and the only thing needed to remedy the situation is a change of attitude toward the immigrant and the adoption of a system of distribu tion. The audience present was remark ably small for such an occasion, but was attributed chiefly to the per formance of the Playmakers and oth er attractions which happened to conflict with the debate. CO-EDS PLAY ACTIVE PART IN CAMPUS LIFE Women Students Taking More Ac live Part in Every Phase of Activity Than Ever Before The women students of Carolina are taking a more active part in every phase of campus activities than ever before. In the Carolina Play makers' productions they have con tributed. It is only within the past four years that girls have been used in the Carolina dramatic productions. Before this men in ladies' costume and make-up attempted to act the feminine roles, even doing the love making and sob-stuff necessary to their parts. Today real women char acters are making performances much more effective for audience and play ers. Girls are also emnloved in this organization to paint scenery, gather properties, administer make-up, to prompt, and to assist in directing. Girls are also taking part in the Music : Department's production of Gilbert and Sullivan's comic' opera, "Pinafore," to be given soon. Girls are entering into the field of athletics on the campus or rather making a field for themselves. This ' year witnessed the organization of J I (Continued on Page Two)
