' FIFTY-TWO NEW MEN JJuTIAM DIALECTIC Speeches From New Men Take Up Most of Evening Juniors Excused From Four Meetings Per Quarter. Fifty-two men were initiated into the Dialectic Society last Saturday night representing every important county in the western part of the state and three other states. The homes of the initi ates range from New York to Florida The program prepared by the initia tion committee was performed in great shape, especially the part given to C. B Tarley of the junior class, alias Patrick Henry Smith. Many new men were introduced to the hall in eloquent speeches, and several of the initiates responded with equally witty replies, until weary with mirth, the hall voted to dispose of the remaining men " toto" with a musical ceremony. The majority of the meeting was taken up with tht initiation and very little timo was left for business. The only matter of business was disposed of by a unanimous vote without discus sion. This consisted of the adoption of an amendment to the by-laws of the so ciety allowing juniors four unexeused ' absences from society ' meetings each quarter. This amendment had been lirevinnslv recommended to the hall by the president in his inaugural address, . The names of the fifty-two men nu tinted follow in the order in which they were registered: W.

LARGE CROWD, EXPECTED The Bussian Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Modest Altschuler, which will appear at Memorial Hall Wednes day evening, October 11, at 8:30 o'clock, has long been one of the most unique orchestral organizations in the country. This reputation has not been the result of accident, but of twenty seasons of purposeful work toward defi nite ideals. The conductor, Modest Altschuler, is himself a musician of finest merit, and it is due to his resourceful personality that the orchestra has become such a definite vital factor in the musical life of America. Under Mr. Altschuler '3 direction the orchestra interprets with sincerity and musicianly feeling the works, not alone of great Bussian com posers, but or those or other nations as well. During the years of its existence, the Bussian Symphony has played in every city of consequence in the Unit ed States, everywhere being heralded a remarkable ' organization, and everywhere adding new laurels to its fame. In the matter of return engage ment alone its superiority is proven. The orchestra comes to Carolina from Charlotte, where it has appeared three times during the last three years For the past two weeks it has played to the thousands who every day attend the Carolinas Exposition, receiving from the newspapers and the public the high est possible praise.. Says the Charlotte Observer: ""The Bussian Symphony Orchestra, under the master mind an hand of that genius of orchestration and directorship, Mod est Altschuler, ,-' . . is composed of 50 men, each an artist in hi own lino, and represents the highest in orchestral art either in this or European coun tries. Under their magnificent direc tor, thev rjlav as one man, and the blending of the instruments is perfect. The audience gave hearty evidence of their appreciation of the wonderful art of the orchestra. The program was a most pleasing one." Of especial interest to Carolinians is the fact that Lamar Stringfield, solo flutist with the orchestra, is a native of Baleigh who obtained his education at Wake Forest College. Mr. String field is an excellent musician, having studied with such master instructors as Walter Damrosch. ' He has a back ground of wide experience for so young an artist, and has appeared with a ntim ber. of the leading musfcal organiza tions of the country. Mr. Stringfield has to his credit more than 75 original compositions a remarkable attainment for so voung an artist and has re much notice iu musical circles for his suite, "In the Mountains, (a) The Dawn,, (b) The Day, (c)The Dance." The securing of the Bussian Sym phony for a concert at Chapel Hill, ac cording to a local musician, should be regarded as a distinct triumph for the music department of the University. Here are various recent press notices which attest to the truth of this state ment: "It is a peer of the greatest orches tras in the world. "Buffalo Times. "Musicians went into rhapsodies last night over the work of the . Russian (Continued on page four.) SPECIAL ISSUE OF BOLL WEEVIL APPEARS SOON Determined that it shall become a prominent figure in University life, the Carolina Boll Weevil Is planning its second invasion of the campus, which will take place October 18, the day . before the State College game. This edition, which is to be eight pages larger than the first, will feature the State College game throughout with bits of fun and hu mor from the pens of campus wits. It Is hoped that another such edi tion can be put out featuring the Virginia game on Thanksgiving Day. Future editions are to he greatly superior to the first copies of "Caro lina's College Comic," the board of editors has promised. The first edi tion was compiled in a great hurry in order to have it ready for the opening of college, but with more time given to future editions, the prospects are bright. The publica tion promises to outshine its lament ed predecessor, Tar Baby, and will prove that University wit is as strong as of yore. CLASS SECRETARIES OF GENERAL ALUMNI RODY HOLD CONFERENCE HERE General Secretary D. L. Grant to Have Charge Wednesday and Thursday Others to Attend. PROGRAM TO BE FORMED FRESHMEN WILL FORM A FRIENDSHIP COUNCIL Preparations are under way for the organization of the "Freshman Friend ship Council." This council, to be com posed of freshmen who have been mem bers of "Hi-Y" clubs in their home towns, is formed for the purpose of aid ing the new men in becoming better acquainted with one another and will thus facilitate their organization into a class. The first meeting will be on the third week of this month. It is planned to have a bi-weekly supper throughout the year for the members and a social each quarter for the whole freshman class. Last year there were 71 members in the Council and this year it is expected that the enrollment will go over the hundrd mark. Carolina Off fide Under Jale Goal Misses Chance to Score McDonald Carries Ball Over But Play Is Thrown Out by Referee " Yale Makes Three Touchdowns. - The General Alumni Conference of j the University, composed of the sev- eral different class secretaries, will be held here Wednesday and Thursday of this week under auspices of the Univer sity Secretary, Daniel L. Grant. The purpose of this conference is to form a definite program for the University alumni to follow during the coining year. . The conference to to be held in two parts: the first session at 6 p. m. in the Episcopal parrish house at a din ner as guests of the University; the final session will be the morning of the 12th at 10 o'clock for the reports of any committees that may have been appointed; and for the final conclusion of business. President Chase will attend the open ing conference, which will be presided over by Dr. L. B. Wilson, editor of the Alumni Review, who has long been in terested in the Alumni Association and worked incessantly for it. Mr. Grant will then present briefly some of the things to be done, after which the meet ing will be in the hands of the confer ees. This conference is to "consider what should be done by the alumni, to decide how it should be done, and to start doing it." The following men, who are perma nent' class secretaries, are expected to be present: Class 1882, C. W. Worth, Wilmington; class 1884, S. M. Gattis, Hillsboro; class 1888, M. L. John, Lau- rinburg; class 1889, George S. Steele, Rockingham; class 1890, J. S. Holmes, (Continued on page three) The Tar Heel eleven, outweighed 20 pounds to the man, ran true to form Saturday afternoon and held the mighty Yale team to three touchdowns, one coming in each of the last three periods. Carolina, in contrast with Yale's rather sluggish playing, presented a fast, aggressive combination with the most effective running attack, according to Oreports, seen at New Haven this sea son.

TRINITY AND SOUTH CAROLINA TO FACE TAR HEELS THIS WEEK After Which Cry Will Be "On to Raleigh" for State College Game Thursday the Nineteenth Trinity and South Carolina Both Victorious in Saturday's Contests. Counsellor System To Study Freshmen The University has just put into ef fect a Counsellor organization similar to that used at Yale and other large institutions of the country. The pur pose of the movement is to enable the University to study this year's fresh man class, its make-up, needs and prob lems, and to deal with the freshmen as individuals: . Fifty members of the faculty have volunteered to serve as counsellors for the freshmen and to aid them iu any way possible. , Each counsellor is pro vided with cards on their men giving their home and preparatory background so as to give him information about the man he is dealing with. It is believed that this work will create a better and more friendly un derstanding between faculty and fresh men and will save a few wrecks which alwavs occur among first-year men. This week will be full of excitement for football enthusiasts here. Both Trinity and South Carolina come to Emerson Field to demonstrate their strength against Coach Fetzer's eleven. The Trinity game is a special attraction for University Day, which is Thursday. The South Carolina game is scheduled for Saturday, after which the team will have only a four day rest before the State College game on the 19th. . Carolina made an excellent showing in the Yale game last Saturday. The defense was tested for the first time and showed up remarkably well, holding OOld Eli to one earned touchdown. The Blue and White line-up was the same that faced Wake Forest, and it is prob able that the same men will start against Trinity Thursday. Trinity defeated Hampden-Sidney 27 to 0. From reports it appears that the Methodists are strong on defense but comparatively weak on offensive play. However, it is not likely that Carolina will be hard pressed to over come the Trinity attack. Sol Metzger is the football mentor in the Gamecocks' camp and he is known far and wide as a coach of the first water. Ho is a strong advovate of fake plays and his team may be ex pected to pull some surprises during Saturday's game. The South Carolin ians held Coach Fetzger's team to a tie last season and do not seem to be any weaker this season. Presbyterian Col lege, the team that defeated Davidson, lost to South Carolina 7 to 0 Saturday. Other schools on the Carolina sched ule with the exception of V. M.

The meeting of the Phi Assembly on last Saturday night was featured by the initiation of 50 new members into the society and the inaugural address of the Speaker, Victor V. Young. This number of initiates breaks all past rec ords of enrollment and it is hoped that the same will be true as to quality. The speaker's address was postponed until after the initiation, so that the new, as well as the obi members might derive benefit from the speech. The first part of the address was devoted chiefly to the history, tradition, pro cedure and growth of the society, so as to give the new men a conception of the workings of the Assembly, The speaker then outlined the policy for the- quarter, which was characterized by co-operation and hard work, and ended with'a jilea for better spirit and greater interestx being- manifested by every individual doings bis utmost to uphold the records and traditions' of the society. ' Jack B. Allsbrook was unanimously elected to the position of treasurer of the society. This election was" made necessary because of the fact that B, S Bowden, treasurer-elect, did not return; to the University this fall. The assembly was fortunate in hav ing "Jimmie" Massenberg, a loyal Phi man of the class of '21, to speak to the new men on the value of liter ary society work. The Phi members will continue their fight for the next two weeks to gain their quota of one hundred new men, for which goal every one is striving.

DAGGETT IS SECRETARY OF ENGINEER COUNCIL University Representative at Meeting in Chicago Is Rewarded for Active Work in Organization. At a council of the State Boards of Engineer Examiners held in Chicago last week, P. H. Daggett represented the Engineering Schools of the Univer sity of North Carolina. The object of this council was to discuss engineering problems throughout the United States. The paramount outcome of the coun cil held in Chicago was the adoption of a set of regulations for reciprocal li censing of professional engineers. Un der these regulations an engineer who has received license in his state may practice in any other state which is a member of the council without a fur ther state examination. The council-was composed of sixteen representatives from the twenty-one states which have reciprocal license laws; viz., New Jersey, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Florida, Lou isiana, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Min nesota, Iowa, Arizona, Colorado, Wyo ming, Oregon and South Dakota. The council fully recognized gradua tion from an approved technical school as four years of experience in the en gineering profession and ruled that only six additional years of experience would be required for a degree. In making such a ruling the council placed great emphasis upon a college education for engineering. -Professor Daggett took a very nctive part in all the discussions and ns a re ward for his services and a recognition of his ability in the engineering field, he was elected secretary and treasurer of the council. and McDonald carrying the ball gained most ground for Carolina, but their brilliant aerial attack was responsible for considerable gains. The first quarter wus scoreless, but after the Eli backs had carried the ball from mid-field to the 20-yard line a forward pass, Neidlinger to Mallory, bohind Carolina's goal netted Yale her first score. At this point the Southerners dis played their greatest offensive strength. With Johnstno doing most of the run ning the ball was carried in a steady march down the field to Yale's own yard line. Two rushes failed to score, but on the third down McDonald car ried the ball over, only to be called back because Carolina was offsido, and on the next play McDonald tried a for ward pass, but it was grounded by Neidlinger behind the goal line. The second Yale score came early in tho third quarter, after Mallory 's kick came to rest on Carolina's five-yard line and McDonald's punt from bohind the goal line rebounded from the goal posts and Eddy for Yale recovered. The final score came in the last peri od as a result of an off tackle play by, Neidlinger after the ball had been car ried down the field from the 50-yard line on gains by Wright. The work of Neidlinger and Mallory for Yale and that of Johnston and Mo- . Donald for Carolina were the bright spots of the game. .The game was somewhat slowed np due to the drizzling rain that contin ued during the entire game. The light er Carolina team was more handicapped by the wet grounds than the heavier Yale "aggregation.""" (Continued on page three) NO POST-SEASON GAMES RULING CONFERENCE Season Closes Saturday After Thanks giving, After Which No Games Per mittedOne Year Rule Enforced. FOR SOCIAL ADVANTAGES Plan Initiated Last Spring by Junior . Class Committee Is Being Tried Out in Quadrangle. Under a new ruling of the Southern' Intercollegiate Athletic Association drawn Up by the executive committee at tho recent meeting in Atlanta, all post-season games between members of the association will be barred. This ruling, stating that the football season officially closes on the Saturdny follow ing Thanksgiving, will undoubtedly knock out the scheduled game between Florida and Louisiana State, which was to take place in Havana, Cuba, Christ mas day. It was also ruled that the one-year rule embodied in the constitution will be strictly enforced, which states that a student, to participate in varsity sports, must have been legitimately reg istered at the institution for at least twelve mouths and that he must have a class Btanding higher than the pre vious year. Davidson College was grant ed permission to play freshmen iu their last Saturday's game with Georgia Tech, for these two institutions had drawn up their contract before the S. I. A. A. had formulated the one year rule. Eight other colleges, members of the association, asked that the one year rule be waived in instances when larger institutions which they were playing agreed to the playing of fresh men. The committee decided that they had no right to waive this regulation or any other regulation of the associa tion, and the request was re'iisrd Occupants of the four new dormi tories met last Friday night and formed a new social organization for each of the four dormitories. The junior class committee started this movement last spring by circulating a petition among tho students getting their assertion that such an organization was needed and would receive their support. The moet ing was called by this junior class com mittee through permission of the Cam pus Cabinet. The purpose of this organization is to give every student advantages of social life and to give him an oppor tunity to get acquainted with those around him. It intends to make dormi tory life less mechanical and mora homelike. According to present plans and agreement tjio ' University will place the necessary furniture in a suit able room in each of the dormitories and the room will then be left to the occupants of the dormitories to be used at their own pleasure. The committee believes that tho or ganization will prove successful and hopes soon to have in each of the dor mitories a telephone, a dormitory band, orchestra and anything else that may create better social, relations. The suc cess of the experiment depends alto gether upon the dormitory itself. If the plan proves successful in these four, dormitories, the same organization will be worked out for all the other dormi tories.
