All members of the family are asked to do their part in gathering up all hrnsh weeds, bottles, cans, papers, shavings, runbish, and trash, and starting it to wara the dump heap. A general war is to be waged against all uutidv hack yards, dirty out-buildiugs, filled with nn sightly and inflammable trash, and at tics stored with loose paper and plunder that will never be used again. The clean-up crusade is being preach ed 111 the name of "health, safety from nre, and beauty of surroundings." Citi zens are urged to gather up those old tin cans and paint buckets that would be such fine incubators for mosauitoes this summer, the shavings and scraps ieit oy carpenters when they remodeled the house, or the hat boxes and tissue paper which came with last Easter's clothes. All fire breeders and eprm breeders should be removed from house and yard. The graded school will co-operate with the community club in the campaign. The school children will not onlv rlpnn up the school grounds, hut will spread the news in their various homes. The fraternity houses are asked to co-operate with the communitv in this state-wide movement... As the first breath of spring is felt, citizens are asked to help Dame Nature make Chapel Hill beautiful. The idea of the campaign is not simply to influence people to clean up during this one week, but to create more interest in keeping cleaned up all the time. That North Carolina schools are ea ger to beautify their grounds is shown by the way they are taking advantage of the Bureau of Design and Improve ment of School Grounds of the Uni versity Extension Division. This work is under tho direction of Dr. W. C. Coker, head of tho botany department, and Mrs. W. T. Matherly, who acts as held agent. According to Dr. Coker, a large number of schools have beeu vis ited recently and many requests for fu ture visits have been received during tho last week. The field agent, Mrs. Matherly, usual ly makes her visits to schools at the invitation of tho school principal or (Continued on Page Four) ITS FOLK PLAYS AT CONCORO Field Agent for Community Drama Bureau Will Accompany Play makers on Western Tour.

"Cart" Carmichnel is snowing plenty of class in the Hold, and speed will go a long way toward offsetting his light hitting, but it must be said that he isn't a weak sister with tlie stick, cither. Fuquay Is also mak l"8 a strong bid for the place, although entering the race as a "dark horso." Homer Starling appears to bo the most likely-looking keystone stack guardian among the new candidates, but Griffin cannot be overlooked. Joe McLean will play in all the home games and may be able to take short trips, but it is hard ly possible that he can accompany the team on the southern tour. Shirley and McDonald are sure of their places, while Bonner and Sweet- man will doubtless be cavorting around in thoir old gardens throughout the sea son. "Casey" Morris will receive cap able assistance in the backstopping de partment from Sim Wrenn, former Oak Eidge and Davidson catehor. The lat tor can also play in the outfield and is sure of getting in a lot of games, as pinch-hittcr at loast. Port Gibson is exceptionally fast in the field and on tho bases and looms up as a strong can didate for a berth in the pasture school track meet Two hundred and fifty schools have enrolled for the triangular debates, and tnese schools will be represented hv inousand student debaters.

At the same time a few facts regarding the master dances have been given out by trie dance leaders and should prove iu foresting. Komiusky's eiitht W n. cnestra, well known in Washington where they fill many large engagements tor unusual social events of the Cani tal, will be here. Komiusky's ni-ehnstrn will be under his personal direction. He is a violinist of wide repute. Dances begin Wednesday after Eastl and end with the spring German Friday night. JJynum gymnasium has been rln. cided upon as the best available nlaee Every idea has been utilized in regard to the decorations in addition to the ser vices of a skilled interior decorator. Var ied color schemes and artifices are to hp used which will make the old huiiHinr look like Louis IV's ball room. It has been the honest nttemnt of tl leaders - to provide everything possible to make these the best dances ever nM at the University. They regret the act ion, necessary because of an increased student body and inadequate floor fnoili ties, which forces the regulation against any except alumni and students of this institution attending. Those who have seen the sprine nro- grams and favors pronounce them su perior in beauty, quality, and taste to any they have ever seen. There will be six no break dances at each evening dance. The faculty Una r,nnoo,i " x1""""- c line that there are to be no late dates. That doesn't mean that Carolina is to be turned into a Sunday School, but ly that a lot of risk of talk regarding the girls will be cut out and a nnmher .of mothers who hove kept their da'ight "ers away from the' University dances will feel safer in allowing them to at tend now. It has been advertised about the cam pus and published several times, but the leaders feel it will save embarnsa- ment if each student will warn his friends at other institutions that they win not ne permitted to attend. It in also to lie remembered that the pledge cards regarding drinking must be signed and returned to the German Club sec retary before the student will be per mitted to attend the dances. Also those who have been voted to memborshin in the Club are warned unless thev nnv their initiation foe they can not nlte.,,1 "V . . vu-uporauon is asked by the leaders and the secretary of the German Club re- ;arding those matters. Every effort was made to secure Swain hall but a survey o the cost to get the floor in shape aud to properly deroraio it looked so much like America's loan to Britinn' that it was given up as hopeless. DEBATE WILL BE AT 8:30 The finals for the triangular debate with Johns Hopkins and Wiiliin... "d le nre to be held 011 Saturday mght, March 24. Our nerafive. posed ot V, V. Xountr anil ton, will go to Baltimore, there to mm. pete with the Johns Hopkins affirmative. At the same time our affirmative. n.n,ln up of two men also, C. A. Peeler and w- Peyton, will meet hero the two men on Washington and Lee's nmrnti, Herbert M. Gould and Ralph Masinter! -the debate here will be at S -HO. im mediately after the address which is to be made that night by Dr. Roscoe Pound, Dean of the Law School of Harvard University, on the subject of r ,i Morals. This debate has been in this form f the past three years, ever since the Uni versity of Virginia dropped out nftor many defeats, leaving a place open, which Washington and Lee has filled sin thf time. In 1920, the first year that Wash ington and Lee was in the debntn. rw. Iina won from both the other contest ants, making a clean sweep. The next year, 1021, each school won one de bate and lost one, ending in a tie. This same thing happened last year, but it is thought that this year will he roi tition of the record of 1020. rnthr , that of the last two years. NO OEFINITE ACTION HilS GRAIL DUNCE WILL BE T( MORROW NIGHT Will Provide Amusement Before Spring ops 'Many Out-of-Town Girls Are Expected to Attend CONCERT NEXT SUNDAY The music department announces a concert for tho coming Sunday after noon at 4 o'clock in Memorial hall, by Mrs. Alice Moncnef of Raleigh. Mrs. Moncrief is a new-comer in tho state, but has already built up for herself a very enviable reputation as an artist of unusual merit. For several years she was on the professional concert stage, filling engagements all over the country with very great success. Each summer she is contralto soloist at Chau tauqua Lake, New York. This year Mrs. Moncrief is spending with hor daughter, who is a student at Meredith College. Examinations have kept everything quiet in Chapel Hill for the past sev- eral weeks. To get back to normal and to provide a bit of amusement before the Easter dances, the Order of the Grail announces a dance to be given in tho gymnasium Saturday night. Ev eryone excopt freshmen are invited, and it is hoped that a largo number of both local and out-of-town girls will attend. It has been the purpose of the Grail to. make dancing possible for tho en tire student body and is doini: so to piuiuoi.u cioso renowship between all Carolina men, both fraternity and 11011- fraternity. Their last dance was a de cided success. Many out-of-town girls attended and tho music was excellent. A small cost will be attached to this dance and those attending will be charged only enough to cover expenses. It is to eb remembered that it is cheap er is a feminine admirer is brought.

HOLIDAY REGULATIONS MAUU KNOWN BY DEAN The following in regard to the Easter holidays has been isued from the office of the Dean of Students: Holidays will begin on Monday, April 2nd, at 8:30, and will end Monday, April 9th, at 8:30. Stu dents who "grat" a class either tho day before or after the recess will be placed on probation. Last year the Easter holidays be gan on Thursday and ended on Thursday. Those students who do not have any classes on Saturday will, of course, have from Friday afternoon to Monday week. America has long been famed for the quantity production of Fords, typewrit ers, shredded wheat biscuit ani safety razors. A plan is now in the process of germination that is expected to fab ricate poetry, short stories, debates, and novels at the same prolific rate. Not only quantity but quality will be featured, and it is confidently expected that Shakespeare, Spencer, Milton, as well as Poe, Longfellow, Emerson and O. Henry will be relegated to ash cans as a result of the new process. The plan calls for nothing less than the harnessing of the talents of 110,000,- 000 people for the purpose of producing tho grandest display of literary fire works the world has ever seen, either since Adam and Eve or since the first human off-shoot of our ape like pro genitors.

On a blue print hanging on the walls of Mr. Harrison's office in Washington is traced the outlines of the National Literary Society Hall of Fame.
