No. 7 TO BE STUDIED By THE Farm and Home Tenancy is Subject of Work to be Taken up; The Club Elects New Officers. At the organization meeting of the North Carolina club held Monday night in Phillips Hall, officers for the present college year were elected and plans for the year's work were dis cussed. Dr. E. C. Branson presided at the meeting and discussed the topic of study of the club for the year, which will be farm and home tenancy. Dr. Branson explained how the increase in landless and homeless tennants in this state is becoming a serious problem and the possibility of such a state finally ruining such a democracy as ours. Organization of the club was effect ed by the election of the following officers and committees: C. J. Wil- j Hams, president; Prof. S. H. Hobbs, Jr., secretary. Steering committee: Profs. E. C. Branson, II. W. Odum, H. L. Myers, J. B. Steiner, E. W. j Knight. Publicity committee: Prof.1 S. H. Hobbs, Jr., and J. G. Gullick. j Membersip committee : J. S. : Dickey, R. F. Marshburn, H. V.

BUILDING ill BE NUDCH0RE ADEQUATE Cabinet Plans to Make The Place More Inviting and Attractive to 4 Students. The Y. M. C. A. building will present a far more inviting aspect to the student body if the present plans of the "Y." Cabinet are ful filled within a few months. The "Y." building of today offers a rather bare appearance to the students who come there to read and study, and as the Graham Memorial building, the future center of student activities will not be completed for 5 years, the Cabinet feels that the "Y." must be altered for the comfort of the students in the near future. According to the plans, the first floor, which is nothing but a drab passage way now will be changed into a modern lobby with soft rugs, lounging chairs, and low pleasant lights. The so-called reading room will also present an improved appear ance with high grade furniture rugs, and a supply of up-to-date news papers and magazines. The recep tion room will be used expressly for a lounging room where the students may rest their weary limbs in bliss ful comfort before a fire place which will be burning from 7 to 10 every chilly evening. The general office will also be fitted out in more at tractive style with two imposing pillars at the entrance and conveni ences inside. There is a possibility that the book exchange will occupy a separate building soon, thus enabling the "Y." to remodel the book exchange room into a much needed auditorium. However, this is not definite yet. Secretary Comer hopes to procure the equipment, which will be of a first class quality by a donation from an alumnus of the University, who owns a large furniture establishment. SATURDAY'S FOOTBALL RESULTS. William and Ivlary handing Wake Forest the 21 to 14 drub bing at Norfolk last Saturday was the upset of North Caro lina football dope. Those who saw the William and Mary" team in action against Trinity three weeks ago were not impressed with any great football. David son somewhat surprised the state by overwhelming Wofford, 87 to 0, although Davidson was expected to win. Carolina meets Davidson later in the season and has defeated Wake Forest 21 to 0. Trinity won by a lone touch down over in Southwest Vir ginia. Her opponent, Emory and Henry, never a strong team, always put up a fighting game. The game had no relative im portance in North Carolina football. Trinity lost to Wil liam and Mary, 14 to 0, three weeks ago, and plays Wake Forest Armistice Day in Ra leigh. In the intersectional games Georgia Tech smashed through the Rutgers line for a 48 to 14 victory. It was predicted that the Golden Tornado would win by 25 points. V. M. I. lost to Pennsylvania, 21 to 7. In national football circles the defeat of Princeton by Chi cago was unexpected and Princeton has small chances against the Yale or Harvard machines. Another surprise was given in the Harvard-Penn State game, at 21 to 21 tie. A Har vard victory was expected. Yale defeated Army, 14 to 7. The game was about as predicted, although many thought Yale would win by a better score. The game was the Army's first real test, and after the Navy defeating Princeton two weeks ago, the Middies seem to have the edge on the West Point ag gregation. Carolina meets Maryland Sat urday. Maryland defeated V. P. I., 10 to 7, State also plays Maryland, but there is no com parative scores available to show the relative strength of the two teams. V. M. I. will be played in Norfolk a week from Saturday and the pros pects of a win over the cadets is stronger than ever before. After, jthe. V. Mj. I.-Carolina game a line can be gotten on the Carolina-Virginia game, as Virginia defeated V. M. I., 14 to 7. Virginia failed to show much against Hopkins winning, 13 to 7. The largest score of the week was made by the University of Cincinnati against Kentucky Weslyah, 115 to 0. This is one of the largest if not the largest scores ever ran up by one team, Centre began to show form de feating Tr nsylvania, 98 to 0. This looks like a Centre score of a year rgo. PRESIDENT CHASE PAYS TRITE TD STUDENTS Commends Sp'rit Displayed by Stu dent Body While in Raleigh For State College Game. "Scrabby" Rives, Carolina's cheer leader, opened up the exercises Fri day morning in Memorial Hall by briefly stating that he was satisfied with the outcome of the State Col lege game except the score, and then he had the student body assembled to split Carolina for President Chase, Captain Lowe, Fetzer Broth ers, and Team. Dr. Chase spoke briefly to the stu dents about the game and reiterated that he was satisfied with everything except the score. He also clearly illustrated that the students were representatives of the University just as the players on the Carolina varsity. President Chase also brought out the point that the peo ple out in the state think of the stu dents precisely as the students think of the team, and that they form an opinion of Carolina by the way in which the students regard the team. He impressed the students with the fact that football was only one phase of Carolina life, and said, "Good sportsmanship ought to be primarily in every man's code of conduct." That kind of sportsman ship was displayed on Riddick's field Thursday by our team; and every man fought in such a style that the student body can feel perfectly satisfied. y. IL C. A. Canvassers Alloted Sections to Cover in Thorough Covering of Cam pus for Money, BUDGET FOR OVER $9,000.00 The Y. M. C. A. campaign for funds will be launched today, and will be continued through Thursday, the opening date having been post poned for a day. The canvassers have been allotted sections and hope to reach every student. The budget calls for exactly $4,625.00, which will barely cover expenses for the year, and if this sum is to be reached each student must give something. mis Duciget is very reasonable comparison with that ot other uni- versities. The University of Texas with an enrollment hardly twice as large as that of the University of North Carolina, called for a sum of $16,000.00, and other Universities are asking comparatively large sums. This year's budge is printed be low: Budgett, 1921-22. Barnett fund, $500; State work, $200; publications, $1,000; printing, $300; postage, $100; building exp., $400; office supplies, $50; newspa pers, $50; magazines, $75; records, $100; curtains, $50; Western Union, $50; Carolina smoker, $500; Inter. Assn., $100; telephone, $60; Yackety Yack, $40; speakers, $500; rural work, $25; boy's work, $25; socials, $500; bills pay (note), $1,000; in cidentals, $100; conferences, $300; summer expenses, $100; secretary's salary, $3,000. Total $4,625.00. Carolina smoker, $500; publications, $600; University fund, $3,500; to be raised, $4,625. Total, $9,125.00. TO BE SHOWN HERE Griffith's Masterpiece to Appear at the Pickwick on Next Thursday. Citizens of Chapel Hill and stu dents of the University will be in terested to learn that David Wark Griffith's masterpiece, The Birth of a Nation, will be shown at the Pick wick theatre on the 27th of this month, which is the coming Thurs day. This picture was adapted from a novel of Thomas Dixon, "The Clans man." Its portrayal of the life of the South just prior to the War ; Between the States, and during the Reconstruction days that followed this war, is superb. It was shown in the South for the first time sev eral years ago, but its great popu- i larity has caused it to be shown in different sections, and in some cities for long periods, since its first ap pearance. Among a large number of pictures that have been of unusual interest to the American public, it stands out as the most popular that has appeared on the screen. PHARMACEUTICAL CLUB HOLDS FIRST MEETING Harrell, President, Makes Interesting Talk, Commending Interest Tak en by The Society. J. W. Harrell, president of last year's class in pharmacy, made an interesting talk in regard to the work done by the William Simpson pharmaceutical society last year, at the first meeting of the society on October 21, complimenting the mem bers on the excellent work done. He especially impressed upon them the fact that this year's society should try in every way possible to do better work than that of last year, and that each member should take as much interest as possible in the work carried on by it. He concluded by saying that he was sure that the officers elected for this year, would be efficient and would do their utmost to fulfill the duties of office devolving upon them as officers. J. E. Johnson was elected Presi dent, F. L. Thur, Vice-President, and C. M. Pugh, Secretary and Treasurer. The old men seemed well satisfied with the large number of men taken in, twenty-six in number and also the interest which was shown apparently by them in joining. The meeting adjourned to meet again on October 22, for the purpose of taking in all new men who desired membership. FURTHER PLANS FOR Sophomores May Have Individual Pictures if Class Wants it That Way. Plans are rapidly being formulated for the successful publishing of the 1922 Yackety Yack by the editors' and managers. Editor-in-Chief W. Edwin' Matthews, states that Mr. Drullard, a representative of the Baker-Jones-Hausauer Company of Buffalo, is in Chapel Hill and is con - f erring with the editors in refer - ence to a proposed section contain- J ween c. Bingham clearly outplayed the . t, a , f nf cQ;montI f I The first of the two Plavs 13 How Freshmen, who showed a lack of ex mg the pictures of specimens of,,,- T- . tn .,,,. a farpa I . ' ....,.., 4, North Carolina's fair daughters. The managerial board of the myackety Yack has under considera tion the inclusion in the coming an nual of individual pictures of Sopho mores. This will be an altogether new feature if it is carried out, and the Yackety Yack managers claim that it will make the book more rep resentative of the Carolina upper classes. This matter rests now in the hands of the members of the Sophomore class, and its fulfillment awaits the action of the class mem bers themselves. ; A majority of the group pictures will be taken this week. The group picture for the Phi Assembly will be taken in front of the library on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Members of the Di Society will have their group picture made in front of the library at the same hour on Wednesday afternoon. Other organ izations that desire to have their pic tures made during the present week will be able to secure dates for the same by conferring with Ike Thorpe, a business manager. BENDER IS EDITOR OF THE CAROLINA CHEMIST EbcHd by The Journal Club; Asso " ' ' ciate Editor to be Elected Later at Meeting. J. A. Bender was elected editor-in-chief of the Carolina Chemist for the present college year at a meeting last Friday of the Journal club, an organization of advanced students in chemistry. His election came as no great surprise to his friends on the campus, he having served ably on the editorial staffs of The Tar Heel and Carolina Magazine and having proved himself especially fitted for this office. The associate editors, the class representatives on the editorial staff, and the business manager will be elected at the annual chemical smok er which will be held Thursday night, October 27. ANOTHER PRFSMNO ri.UR DOES BUSINESS HERE1 Another cleaning and pressing es tablishment has extended its patron age to the campus of the University. The Sanitary Dry Cleaning Company of Durham has opened a branch es tablishment in Chapel Hill. Mr. Vic tor V. Young, a member of the junior class, and treasurer of the Phi as sembly, is the representative of the concern. Mr. Young has a corps of repre sentatives who solicit patronage in the various dormitories and rooming houses. ' The concern is a cleaning, pressing and dry cleaning establish ment. With the new laundry and the numerous cleaning establishments well represented, the student body of the University is in a position to ever remain "spick and span." CALENDAR.

FIRST PLAYS OF YEAR TD BE PRESENTED THIS WEEK BY PLAYMAKERS Friday and Saturday Are Days Set For First Presentation of New Plays Awaited With Interest. The Carolina Playmakers will pre sent two plays on Friday and Satur- day evenings, October 28 and 29. They will be presented in the graded school ibuildiner. known as the Plav- House. The University orchestra. j under the direction of Mr. Carl 1 Wiegand, will give a well selected i - . by Bernard Shaw, with the cast of characters as follows: He Lloyd Williams She Lula M. Mclver Her Husband George Denny The scene for this play is laid in the home of a London business man. A youthful poet of eighteen years is infatuated with the wife. After having written a volume of poems to her, he asks her to leave her hus band and go away with him. The husband comes in and having found the poems dedicated to his wife, ac cuses the poet of writing them as an offense to his household. The young man insists that the poems were not written to the wife, whose name is Aurora, but to Aurora, the Goddess of the Dawn. The husband becomes offended at the poet's in sistence that the idea of writing such poems to his wife is absurd, and nearly wipes up the floor with him when the wife comes in and inter rupts. When the poet at last ad mits the truth the husband is de lighted, and after boasting that no one can resist her, promises to pub lish the poems in the best volume possible. The second play is "Suppressed Desires," a satire on psycho-analysis, by George Cram Cook and Susan Glaspell, two Provincetown Players, with the cast as follows: Stephen Brewster. .Herbert Heffner Henrietta Bin; wister. . Cornelia Love Mabel Adeline Denham The scene for this play is laid in Washington Square, New York; a typical Greenwich village upstairs apartment. Henrietta is a mono maniac on the subject of dreams, Freudian interpretation. She ad vises her husband and her sister, Mabel, to have their dreams inter preted by the noted specialist. This doctor decides that Stephen is un happily married to Henrietta (al though he is not aware of the fact himself), and must elope with her sister. Mabel, who has been the con tented wife of a Chicago dentist for several years. This solution does not conform to Henrietta's ideas of the proprieties as she wants Stephen herself, so she gives up psycho-analysis, and' serds Mabel back to the Chicago dentist. FETZER'S TEAM MEETS Y Carolina Will Have Strong Line-Up in Game in Baltimore Next Saturday. Carolina meets the University of Maryland on the Maryland gridiron Saturday afternoon. There is very little in the schedule of either team played up to date to gather any in formation as to the relative strength of the two teams. Maryland defeated V. P. I. Satur day by a 10 to 7 score, the advant-! age of Maryland coming as a result of a 35 yard drop kick by Brewer and not from any especially good I brand of football. V. P.

George and Sparrow, the i Freshmen's mainstays in the back- ' field, were out of the game early on account of iniuries end their ab- sence was keenly felt. Thomas, formerly a New Bern high school back, proved to be the sen sation of the game. His broken field runninor and line nlumrpn wpr t.hp I high lights of the game. He dis- played unusual football ability and was responsible for many of the Car olina first downs. Gardner, running quarter after Sparrow's injury, show ed up to advantage, handling the team fairly well and running the ball for consistent gains. Dalton in the Bingham backfield, came to Carolina with the reputa tion of being one of the best backs in North Carolina prep circles and went away with the same reputa tion. He was given the ball time and again and gained ground con sistently. The entire backfield dis played the results of good coaching. Clarke, at quarter, handled his team well and punted fairly well. Graves and Brown on the right side of the Bingham line at end and tackle made it almost useless for a play to come their way. Brown, at tackle, is one of the most prom ising linesmen in high school foot ball. The entire Freshmen line proved almost impregnable pn the defense but failed to show any marked abil ity on the offense. The two tackles, Estes and Pendergraft, played hard and heady games, while the ends playing hard were constantly massed up by the interference the Bingham team ran so well. A lack of in terference in the Freshmen backfield wa.-i plainly evident. Bingham Starts Early.

Debate Determining Important Ques tion is Hot and Interesting. For Later Discussion. The Di Society met Saturday night for the third time this year, and at this meeting ten new men were taken in plus the thirty-seven taken in last Saturday night, making the total number for this year forty seven men. These men were given the secrets of the society and taken through the customary process of mystical paddling, and weird expres sions. A. M. Moser delivered n essay on the life of Z. B. Vance, a Di man, and one of the state's most cherish ed statesmen. Mr. Moser briefly cut lined the career of Zeb Vance from childhood until his death, and this timely essay marks the beginning of this year's series of speeches on the
