They also returned very enthusiastic over the project of organizing this fed eration, and convinced that it will be a fine thing. There is just cause for such enthusi asm, for there is no doubt but that a federation such as this could do a world of good for all the colleges represented. So many problems face the students on the campus that could be worked out in meetings such as the one held recently, and with such an organization the col leges would be greatly benefitted from membership. We trust the enthusiasm now being registered will not die down, and that the organization will come into a health ful being and be thoroughly active. The purpose of the Confederation is "to discuss student problems and student government, to he of mutual aid to each other in the exchange of ideas, and to promote better educational stan dards." The constitution will be pub lished in a future issue of the Tar Heel. We are in thorough sympathy with it, and hope that Carolina will become an active member. We are sure the cam pus will be benefitted by such a mem bership. . SPORTOGRAPHS E. 0. M. COMMUNITY SHOCKED ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT Staff B. H. Miller J. H. Lineberger CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT W. C.

Vol. XXXL Peb. 20, 1923 No. 35 THE VERDICT AWAITED The death of Mrs. George McKie came as a very great shock to the resi dents of Chapel Hill and the students and faculty of the University. It was generally thought that she was recover ing nicely from the operation she un derwent some time before death came, and news of her passing was a surprise that cut deep. Mrs. McKie had lived a long time in the village and was known and loved by a large number of people here. Many Carolina students knew her personally, and she was an active churchwoman and prominent among other women's ac tivities. She was the type of woman that the community will miss, and mem ory of her will not be but for a day or for a week, but for all time. The students of the University ex press their deepest sympathy for those bereaved. The educational bill will, in all proba bility, come before the Legislature this week, and the appropriations that will be made by the state to the University and the other educational institutions will be decided. The outcome of the consideration is watched by the people of North Carolina with the utmost in terest, for the education appropriation is one of the ggest and most import ant problems that faces the Legislature during its entire term. In spite of the doubt that exists in some quarters over the state's finan cial status it appears to be the general wish of the state that the Legislature is generous in its gifts to the University and its appropriations for higher edu cational facilities. ..Most of the state's leading daily papers have come out with the stand, that in this department more than anywhere else the Legislature should hesitate longest before cutting down appropriations, agreeing that this is an investment for the state that is safe. Even the News and Observer, while apparently siding with Mr. Max well in believing that the state's finan cial condition is not so encouraging as Governor Morrison thinks, says that the Legislature should be generous with the educational appropriations, cutting down on the other things which are not so important and are not of such vital significance to the welfare of the state. Nobody, of course, wants the Legis lature to appropriate more money than the state can afford, snd thereby run up the taxes in an alarming increase, but it seems to be generally agreed that, regardless of how well off we are or how poor we are, education is a cause so deserving that there is grave danger in not giving enough for its advance ment. The University has made its re quests, a budget worked out with the deepest consideration cf all economy possible. The Legislature is expected to come across in good old Tarhelia fash ion. We await the verdict confidently with a belief that it will be a good and level headed one. The University is an institution the state should well be proud of. With the money before appropriated by the state it has acted wisely and judiciously, and we have only to look around us not only in Chapel Hill but all over the state and see the fine results of the ex penditures. Nobody can say that a dollar has been wasted. It has all been applied to a good and deserved purpose, and the money that the state will give to the University this time will be used in the same sane way for the develop ment and advancement of higher edu cation in this state. NEW VILLAGE PAPER The Tar Heel welcomes as a contem porary a new weekly newspaper to be published in the village by Professor Louis Graves, head of the Department of Journalism of the University. The Chapel Hill Weekly, it is an nounced, will not be a University news paper in any sense, but a town and county weekly with University news only incidental. There is a good open ing for such a paper here, and it should prove a successful project from the out set. The Tar Heel expresses its best wishes to the publisher. Mince and Comments LOOKS GOOD TO US Carolina representatives to the At lanta conference, called for the pur pose of organizing the Southern Fed eration of College Students, report a trip that was thoroughly enjoyable and beneficial to them in many respects. i The mysterious writer who nistis his articles 'with the rustic title of "llay irjhaker" seems to possess more informa tion concerning the past history of the Ketzer brothers than they do themselves. ss. x) 'M . Couch Hob was present at the same Saturday night with his luck piece, the old felt hat that left the factory in l'.lH. and therefore Carolina he-it Trinity, jf S- ' The only chance another team has of crowding Carolina out of the Southern Championship is to erniane!itly destroy this same head piece. a a The referee of the Trinity game was about as popular as an X report, and the groaning and razzing that followed the culling of fouls against the Tar Heels proves that the Carolina Spirit is still resting peacefully under the sod in front of the Library. g ;: yt: What is worse than refereeiug a basket ball game? Answer: Collecting class dues. ill. The Legislature tried to pass a law taxing all bachelors over forty years of age the sum of one hundred dollars a month for the upkeep of maiden women who have passed the thirty year mark. Wonder how man members of the Legis lature are bachelors? H IB IS! The "Sea of Suds" is bubbling no more; the Laundryette has breathed its last breath and now the Boll Weevil ranks first in the humorous publications of Chapel Hill. ' BBS In its short existence the Laundry ette served its purpose very well, for breathes there a student now who can not now make out his own laundry list properly? State College and Carolina wilil play their second game of the season at the gymnasium tomorrow night. Hartsell's five has developed rapidly in the past week and was barely beaten by Wake Forest Saturday. A'irginin leaves on her trip into North Carolina Thursday. " Washington and Lee will tackle the Orange and Blue at Charlottesville tonight, after which "Pop" Lnunigan's men play V. P. I. at Lynch burg, Trinity at Durham, and wind; up their season here Saturday night. The Old Dominion has defeated V. M. I., West Virginia Wesleyan, and Trinity on her own floor, . but lost to Washington and Lee 20 to 1!) at Lex ington. West Virginia University is the only other team with a victory over the Charlottesville crew, and Carolina will receive stubborn opposition in the last game on the home floor. Washington and Lee will lose two regulars of this year's quintet by gradu ation. Captain Schneider and ex-captain llines have both played their last contest on the Lexington floor, while "Wahoo" McDonald and Snivel-, sub stitutes, have also completed their fourth year. Wake Forest is taking a week's trip through Western North Carolina, Ten nessee, and Virginia. The Baptists close the season Saturday night when they play Trinity at the Angier Duke Gym nasium. Carlyle and Stringfield will par ticipate in their last college basketball game then. Davidson won from Elon 30 to 24, but was defeated by Guilford 43 to 43 last week. Mauze and Crawford have been the only Presbyterians to play consist ently all season, and they deserve the bulk of the credit due the Wildcat team. Mercer and Vanderbilt are pretty well matched. The former gave the Nash ville aggregation a licking 32 to 29 and the next night the Commodores were victorious 37 to 35 on the Macon floor. Coach Alexander, of Georgia Tech, does not expect one of the accepted favorites to win the Southern tourney. Ills opinion Is that good foul shooting will decide the victor, and that the team with an exceptionally accurate shot from the fifteen foot mark will walk off with the laurels. Kentucky and Georgia are depending on new material this year. Only one man is left from the Kentucky quint that won the tournament in 1921, Dutch Burnham : but he and Reifkin, a little forward who is unusually fast, make their team a dangerous one at all times. Joe Bennett and Gurr are the shining lights for Georgia. The former made good about 80 per cent of his chances from the foul line on the Red and Illack's recent trip through Tennessee and Kentucky. Georgia has the best basketball sched ule in the history of that institution. Virginia, Trinity, Maryland, and Caro lina will visit Athens, while inter-sectional clashes have been arranged with Vale, Michigan, Dartmouth, and the Uni versity of Pennsylvania. The lied and Black has lost four varsi ty players from the team that Carolina defeated here last spring. Cody, Honey, Hutchinson, and Frost did not return to school. At the Trinity-Carolina basketball game Saturday night, E. H. Shirley, president of the Athletic association, pre sented gold footballs to the coaches and players of the 1022 championship eleven. Those receiving tokens were: Coaches Bill and Bob Fetzer, Dr. K. B. Lawson, Captain Grady Trite-hard, Captain-elect itoy Morris, Bill Blount, "Monk" Mc Donald, Allan McGee, Fred Morris, -'Suey" Cochrane, Pierce Matthews, "Christ" Fordliam, Mclver, Poindexter, Tommy .Shepard, "Heinie" Lineberger, Jack Merritt, George Sparrow, "Moose" Tenney, and "Goat" Randolph. NORTH CAROLINA MUCH TALKED OF SAYS HOBBS Associate Editor of News Letter Makes Statement After 8,000 Mile Trip Through Other States. "North Carolina is attracting more attention throughout the nation than any other Southern state," according to statements from S. M. Hobbs, Jr., of the editorial board of the University "News Letter" who recently complet ed a 3,000-mile trip in the United States. "On the Pullman cars, iu hotels, at conventions in fact, almost everywhere the Old North State is being praised and .discussed." He declared that a Tar Heel away from his native state is proud of his homeland and is asked many questions about its marvelous achievements. Mr. Hobbs gives several reasons why a North Carolinian is proud of his state, and concludes with: "Wealth and willingness are making North Carolina the empire state of the South." ' I C. CLUB PUTS OUT Wide Field is Covered in Annual Year Book Healing With Land Problem. The new Year Book of the North Carolina club on "Home and Farm Ownership" will be ready for distri bution Friday. This volume is com posed of some 200 pages and treats the essential matter of civilization in the state, the nation, and in the other coun tries of the world. A very wide field is covered exhibiting the causes and cousequences of lantilessness and the remedies applied in California, Den mark, New Zealand, England, Ireland, Scotland, and Canada. It does not stop with merely doing that, but proposes a well-thought-out remedy for the condi tions in North Carolina. This is the first time in America that this subject has been presented to the public iu one well-ordered single volume. A full background is also given of the Giles bill that the General Assem bly of North Carolina is now consid ering. In its discussion of the bill it shows how the passage of the bill would do much to improve the condi tions of the many landless farmers of this state. It points out how Denmark and New Zealand have become the two richest farm states in the world, and how we should follow their lead. - This book can be had by North Caro linians free of charge by applying at the University Extension Division of fices, but the price to other applicants will be $1. The list of applicants is already large and those desiring the bulletin should apply as early as pos sible, as the supply is very limited. So many women are shooting their husbands nowadays that the men are getting to the point where they arc afraid to take out life insurance. PEOF. DAGGETT ATTENDS ENGINEER INSTITUTE P. II. Daggett, of the Electrical Engi neering department, has been in New York City all of this week attending a meeting of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. He is expected back early next week to resume his duties iu the Engineering department. Carter Pulton, University alumnus, and at present a prominent lawyer in High Point, was a visitor on the Hill last week. Deputation Team Returns To Hill The Carolina deputation team 1ms just returned from Charlotte where it. in co operation with X. C. State Y. M. C. A., conducted a very successful "Come Clean" campaign on February 't and 1(5. The Carolina deputation team was com posed of ('.. C. Poindexter and Victor Voting. The campaign, which was held under the ni'spices of the Charlotte Y. M. C. A. and the city school board, was a "Come Clean" drive for clem living, clean athletics, clean speech, and clean scholar ship. The Y. M. C. A. had a definite schedule of talks on these subjects plan ned. Mr.' Poindexter. in his fifteen or more talks to the schools of the city, emphasized clean nthletics, while Mr. Young gave ten talks on clean scholar ship. Mr. Young also made a talk at Biddle Institute on inter-racial problems. At the latter part of this week the Y. M. C. A. will send a team of five men to Salisbury to conduct n similar cam paign. Those who will compose this second team are C. C. Poindexter, G. II. Leonard, W. E. Hunt, It. E. Brown, and A. F. Itaper. POST-OFFICE RUSHED BY CROWD OF STUDES The United States Government post office was forcibly entered Saturday night ut a little past nine o'clock by a number of University students following the victory over Trinity. The students finding the post oflice closed succeeded in opening a window on the left side. After this entrance had been effected the doors were easily opened and the throngs of students rushed in.

"Sheer Height" THE American husinrss buiMinfr represents a distinct and national architectural style when its desutn frankly emphasizes its cheer hciyht and outwardly expresses the inner tacts ofi: construction.

OTIS ELEVATOR COMPANY Offices in all Principal Cities of the World WARREN INSISTS THAT STUDENTS PAY RENT The trotistii-pi-'a omcc lias issued a statement that, many rooms on the cam pus are for rent. Posters have been plac ed in all the dormitories otating that a number of reservations in dormitories A, B. O, D, E, Catr, Battle, Vance, Petti jrrew, Old Must, Old Went, and South will he open for new applicants Feb ruary 10. These rooms have not been paid for by the students sinning up for them and Mr. Wnrren says they will be declared vacant on that day unless paid for by those now occupying them. The room shortage which was such a problem hist year seems to have passed, and n new problem introduced with the building and completion of the new dor mitories, that being to get occupants for the rooms who are willing to pay room rent. No doubt there will be many seeking rooms out in town as Mr. War ren evidently intends to take action which will be an example to the students in the future. .
