State Champions?? Heel State Champions?? Volume XXXI. Chapel Hill, N. C, Tuesday, October 17, 1922 Number 7 ANNUAL"0NTORALEIGH"FEVER STIRS BLOOD OF STUDENT BODY Students, Professors, Co-eds and Janitors Plan to Attend Annual Fair Week Classic in Full Force Special Train Leaves at 8 A. M. Game Will Be Hard Fought. Thursday is the day, Raleigh the place, Harry Hartsell's State College warriors the opponents, and the gridiron classic of the state, the occasion. "On to Ealeigh" has been the battle cry on the campus for tho past few days. Pep meetings are being held in Gerrard hall where large doses of Caro lina are being administered to the student body by cheer leaders and special speakers. Enthusiasm and pep are at a high pitch and it is expected that prac tically the entire school community- students, professors, coeds and jani tors will make tho trip to see the an nual Fair Week game Thursday. The special train will leave Carrboro at 8 a. m. and arrive at Ealeigh at 10:30. With the Trinity and South Carolina games tucked safely away, tho Tar Heels will enter the fray with blood in their eyes, determined to get revenge for the defeats of the past two years. And State will make a desperate ef fort to run their string of victories to three straight. In spite of having played three games within the last eight days, Fetzer's combination is in good shape for the scrap, with the exception of "Bed" Johnston, who has a bad ankle and did not play in the Trinity game, and for only three minutes in the South Caro lina contest last Saturday. He will likely be seen in action on Riddick field Thursday afternoon. The varsity lias been practicing behind barred gates this week. Coach Fetzer evidently in tends to launch his most powerful at tack against the West Ealeigh outfit. The Wolfpack came through their last struggles without any injuries and will flng their full strength into the bat tle in an effort to turn back the mighty offensive tactics of the Carolina eleven. The games played so far this season offer no way to compare the strength of the two teams. The Blue and White machine had little trouble in routing the Trinity eleven Thursday but their showing against South Carolina Satur day, although brilliant at times, was not as good as-was expected. While the State gang was played off its feet by the supposedly weak Eoanoke team, and they were fortunate to get the big end of the score. The aerial attack of the Virginians gave the West Ealeigh boys a real surprise and was responsi ble for 16 first down to 7 for State. Tommie Park, State's left-footed punt er, saved the day with his mighty toe, and he is being depended on to keep Captain Pritchard's team out of scor ing distance Thursday. The Tar Heel .looks to be the better team on paper, but there is no saying just what will happen Thursday afternoon. One thing is sure, Eiddick field will be the scene of a royal battle. The line-up for the game is, of course, problematical. However, it will be very nearly as follows: State Carolina (Continued on pag. "Lew" and "Lefty" VisitorsjOn The Hill Clement Manly Llewellyn, last year star twirler and captain of Carolina's baseball team, spent Thursday and Fri day on the Hill. "Lew" showed up well with Buffalo this past season but being rather bashful he could be in duced to say but very little about him self. However, it was learned from Sunday's papers that the Yankees ar recalling him for spring practice. Llewellyn will practice law with his brother in Mount Airy this winter, but. when spring practice opens up "Low" will be right on the job with his hand around the pill steaming them straight down the line. "Lefty" Wilson, for four years one of the best ball players at the Univer sity, was hero for the Trinity game Thursday. "Lefty' is teaching school and, coaching this year at Angier, a lit tle town near Dunn. It is very prob able1 that he will be on the mound again next summer. Both "Lew" and- "Lefty" were pleased with this year's football team and the apparent growth and prosper ity of the University this year. ALBERT COATES DISCONTINUES COMPETITION FOB AMES PEIZE Because he wants to devote his en tiro attention to the study of law, Al bert Coatos, a brilliant Carolina alum nus who is now at Harvard, has de clined to compete further for the Ames prize. He fulfilled the requirements for two years and in all probability would have won the prize if he had allowed his name to be retained for tho ensuing yn ; - - - " i..t.mmJM a. m. Mcdonald, jr. ' ' Monk 's ' ' work at quarter, running back punts and carrying the ball for consistent gains, were high lights in the South Carolina game Saturday. He will pilot the Tar Heel machine in Thursday's battle on Eiddick field. 01 VOTES DOWN MEASURE FOR GOVERNMENT CONTROL Single Affirmative Speaker Has No Chance Against Trotter-Cathey-Peeler Combination New Members Added By almost unanimous vote, the Dia lectic society decided last Saturday night that the. United States govern ment should not own and operate the coal mines. Those taking part in the discussion were: W. C. Presnell, affirm ative; J. P. Trotter, S. M. Cathey and C. A. Peeler, negative. The main contention of the affirma tive as represented by Mr. Presnell was the moral issue that it is wrong for a small group of. capitalists to mono polize such an important industry, even as it is wrong for the nobles to own all the land in olden times. Further more, government ownership does not mean socialism, and it will eliminate waste. The negative took a more practical stand, without theory. Trotter pointed out that the system had been tried in other countries and failed, and besides. it is not in harmony with the principles of the United States government. Cath ey showed that an analogy with the postal system was weak. Peeler -declared that there was enough coal in the country to last 4,000 years and that private enterprise was more successful in the mining industry, as in practically every other. Prior to the program, the following men were initiated into, the society: L. T. Bledsoe, Ashcville; W. K. Knowles, Ashcville; W. A. Swain, Ashe villo; J. A. Hcbert, Charlotte; R. E. Cole, Pittsboro.

IN PRELIMINARY PRACTICE Alexander and Shepard Hope to Have Team in Fighting Trim for Encoun ter With Maryland Saturday. Coaches Alexander aud Shepard have been pushing the first year candidates for the past two weeks and from pres ent indications they will have an ex ceptionally strong team to face the Maryland freshmen at Washington Saturday. While the final selection of the first team has not been made, those Bhowing up best and running at first string are: Jones and Hodges, ends; Brown and Ashley, tackles; Taylor and Sherlock; guards; Eobertson, center; Devon, quar ter; Griffin and Foy, half backs, and Gold, fullback. The freshman teams will have two schedules this fall.

State at Tarboro; November 18, Geor gia at Chapel Hill; November 25, Vir ginia at Chapel Hill, Prof. Seville, of tho Engineering de partment, has made an investigating tour in parts of Canada and New York state within the last several weeks for the purpose of observing the installa tion of hydro-electric power at Nia gara Falls and also Hydro-Electric Com mission of Ontario which operates the largest system of municipally owned power plants in the world. This water power development at Niagara Falls being the largest in the world afforded Prof. Saville a valuable source of study. There he investigated single water wheels with a capacity of 55,000 horse power. Prof. Savillo will render a complete (Continued on page three) The dance given by the co-eds Fri day night in the gymnasium was pro nounced the best of its kind ever held in Chapel Hill. There were over 70 young men attending and about 30 of the fair sex. Music was. furnished by the Tar Baby Six to the delight of everyone, many claiming that Garbcr Davis could not have pleased the danc ers more. A total of $35 was made and will bo used on the piano fund for the girls' dormitory. It is said that never before have Carolina co-eds looked or danced so well, but the honor of the finest, mo?t attractive dress goes undoubtedly to Miss Kiku Maeshimn, of Tokio, Ja pan. Dressed in silk and satin of the finest tissue, this little lady made a nleasing debut into Chapel Hill society. This is the first of several dances to be given by the co-eds. The support given them this year by the students promises to be much better than it was last year. The dancing was from 9 to 12 and never lulled, going strongest amf best when "Home, Sweet Home" called the merrymakers away. The chaperons were Mrs. A. P. Eussell, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Meyer, Mr. and Mrs. T. II. Hamilton and Mr. and Mrs. Walter (Continued on page four) The Carolina Band Takes On New Life The Carolina band has been rejuve nated. D. L. Sheldon whojs its new instructor, had 38 men out for the sec ond rehearsal and is expecting more at the next meeting. Thirty of the now men were used in the University Day exercises and the Trinity-Carolina game. Mr. Weaver of the Music Department nnounees that there is an abundance of talent here at Carolina the only trou ble being the lack of instruments. There are many men who know how to play, but who do not possess instruments on account of having been affiliated with orchestras which supplied these necessities. For three years attempts have been made to obtain a portion from the bud get to fill this need, but to no avail. As a last resort $450 has been borrowed by the department and invested in pur chasing tho following instruments: one big bass horn, one baritone horn, two alto horns, one "E" flat clarinet, and one piccolo. Those instruments are be ing expected every day, and men are ready and waiting to play them. Carolina is fortunate in having Mr. Sheldon to instruct the baud this year, as he has attained a unique achieve ment of being able to play and teach any band instrument made. Mr. George Lawrence is rendering voluntary as sistance in helping the band get started. CALENDAR Wednesday: Band practice in Old East at 8:30 p. m. Thursday: Special train leaves Chapel Hill for Ealeigh at 8 a. m. A. and E. vs. Carolina on Kiddick field at 3 p. m. Special train leaves Union Station at 11:30 p. m. Friday: Compulsory chapel attendance for all freshmen, sophomores and juniors. Swain Hall Warns Rushing Must Stop Swain Hall has again been forced to lay down the law in no uncertain terms to her impatient guests who clamor at her gates three times per day, finding it hard to postpone for even a few minutes the enjoyment of her luscious bounties. The following mandate was distributed at all the tables and tacked upon the doors last Saturday: "During the past few days a cer tain few have been rushing the doors of the dining hall before the time sched uled for meals. Tho Management "9sl; tively will not stand for this, vvaip Hall is not to be made a rough house by a certain few. We feel that a ma jority of our guests expect us to keep this a decent and orderly boarding liouso and this is our intention. "To you who have been rushing tho doors before the time scheduled for meals, let us say that if you are inside the dining hall before the time sched uled for meals, or if you are out on the porch attempting to rush our doors be fore we open them, that we will re luctantly ask you to change your board ing place. "Let us request you to remain off the porch until the doors open in order that you may not be shoved in by those behind you, for if you are inside the door it is immaterial to us how you got there. "You are warned not to try to get around this by rushing in in largo num bers for we intend to check you at your table as well as at the door and on the porch." Fetzer's Team Hammers Out 12 First Downs, But Can Regis ter Only 10-7 Score. SNIPES MAKES LONG RUN Breaks Loose in Spectacular Dash of 67 Yards for Touchdown Pritchard and Waite Star. FACULTY RECEPTION AT HOME OF THE PRESIDENT Showing surprising strength on the dofonso, Sol Metzgor's Gamecocks suc ceeded in holding the Blue and White to 10 and 7 on Emerson field Saturday afternoon. The score does not indicate the roal difforence betweon tho two teams. Tho Tar Heels' terrific attack produced twelve first downs, whilo the 67-yard run for touchdown by Snipes in the third quarter was the only bright spot in the South Carolina offense. Fumbles played an important part in the game. In the first few minutes of play Captain Fritchard scooped up a South Carolina fumble and trotted across the goal line for his team's only touchdown. Several times when Caro lina was in striking distance of tho Sandlappers' goal Coach Fetzer's backs fumbled and lost the ball. The majority of Carolina's gains were made through the line with Mc Ghee and Merritt carrying the ball. The forward passing of the Tar Heels lacked its usual accuracy, but on sev eral occasions was responsible for sub stantial gains. Near the end of the first half a forward pass, Merritt to McDonald, gained 20 yards and on the next play an extremely long pass nar rowly missed producing a touchdown. The rival captains, Pritchard and Waite, were the outstanding start on the defense. Time and again Pritchard broke through and tackled opposing backs for losses, and was especially fast in getting down the field under puntB. Waite was no less brilliant, being in practically overy play and injoctiug a fighting spirit into his players through out the game. A cold, drizzly rain failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the rival cheering soctions. Quite a number of South Car olina supporters were on hand to see the game and stood behind their team to the last.

This is the first time in recent years that tho reception has been giv en at night. Since so many new in structors have been added to the Uni versity, this annual reception is the best means for all the faculty to learn each other. Punch, coffee, mints, pistachio ice cream and cake were served. At the head of tho receiving line were Dr. and Mrs. Chase, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Koyster, H. H. Pattorson, G. M. McKie and Mr. Currie. JERNIGAN CALLS OFF TENNIS TOURNAMENT The Varsity Tennis Manager an: nounces that the fall tennis tournament will havo to bo called off on account of tho bad condition of the courts. Heretofore tho tennis followers have looked forward to this tournament with much pleasure, and they are hoping that matches with a few colleges of tho state anil also a game with Virginia can be arranged later. Jernigan, the tennis manager, is do ing everything possible to get the seven new courts in condition for playing, but his efforts are being somewhat thwarted when some students persist in playing on the courts before they are in condition. In order that the courts get in proper condition at the earliest possible time, the manager desires the co operation of the student body.
