FRESHMEN TAKE CLOSE
CONTEST FROM TRINITY
Carolina Yearlings Outbatted but Trin
ity's Errors Are Disastrous
Johnson's Work Stands Out.
The Caroliua First Year Reserves
nosed out the Methodist colts Thursday
on Emerson field by a score of 3 to 2,
iu the second game of the seasou. The
Trinity yearliugs collected nine hits to
Carolina's four but threw away the
game with the aid of five costly mis
cues and failure to hit at opportune
moments.
Johnson at short stood out for Caro
lina in fielding and at the bat, and was
responsible for the first counter when
he slashed out a triple in the third
frame and was brought in by R. Jones'
single. "Niek" Carter, right end on
the Trinity varBity football team, and
Winters, showed up best for Trinity,
the latter connecting safely three times.
The game was marred by an inex
cusable three-quarters of an hour delay
in starting.

N. C. YEAR BOOK GIVES
GREAT AID TO FARMERS
S. BL Hobbs States That Year Boole Is
Responsible for Farm Loan
Commission.
According to a statement by S. H.
Hobbs, of the department of rural so
cial science, the 1923 issue of the North
Carolina Year Book on Home and Farm
Ownership was directly responsible for
the creation by the North Carolina Gen
eral Assembly of the Farm Loan com
mission. Although this commission is
only a few months old it has worked
out a plan of action and study which
will inevitably not only aid the farm
ers of this state, but the adjoining
states as well. This commission is send
ing representatives to California, South
Dakota, Utah, and Oklahoma to make
a thorough study of the conditions there
and especially in their applicability to
this "state. Among other things this
commission will present to the State
General Assembly the most feasible
plan for land settlement in North Carolina.
This commission will co-operate with
a similar body appointed by the South
Carolina Legislature; each commission
will thus be able to profit by one
another's findings. These two commis
sions have scheduled a joint conference
for May 11 at which a greater and more
complete program will be decided upon.
The commission is composed of Sen
ators D. F. Giles, of McDowell, chair
man, and Chas. U. Harris, of Wake;
Representatives R. M. Cox of Forsythe,
W. H. S. Burgwyn of Northampton,
and T. W. Gwynn of Haywood; S. H.
Hobbs, of the University of North Car
olina, and Dr. Carl C. Taylor, of N. C.
State College.
DR. STEINER PRAISES
REFORM INSTITUTIONS
During the Easter holidays Dr. J. F.
Steiner, head of the University Exten
sion Bureau, W. B. Sanders, of the State
Department of Public Welfare, Rev. A.
S. Lawrence, and George Lawrence made
an inspection of Samarcand Manor, the
training school for girls located near
Pinehurst, and the Stonewall Jackson
Training School for boys, located at
Concord. All pronounced themselves as
very much impressed with the great work
which was being done at both institu
tions. Dr. Steiner, in speaking of the
visit, stated, "The way in which the
State cares for its delinquent boys and
girls is certainly in striking contrast to
the manner in which it cares for its
adult prisoners in the convict camps and
chain gangs."
J. M. BROWN INAUGURATED
PRESIDENT OF PHI SOCIETY
New President Discusses Present Leth
argy of Societies, Urging Prompt
Action for Renewed Activity.
Prof. Wheeler has returned from Yale
where he attended the meeting of the
American Chemical Society last week.
"What is the matter with the liter
ary societies'" was the question dis
cussed by J. M. Brown in his inaugural
address as president of the Di society.
"Besides this, there are two other is
sues involved," said Mr. Brown. "They
are: Are the societies doomed at the
University; that is, do they supply a
fundamental needf And finally, is
there a remedy from the present stand
ing of the societies on the campus?"
In regard to the first question as to
what is the matter with the societies,
Mr. Brown stated his belief that the
present situation was merely a stage in
the transition of Caroliua from a small
colleire to a great University. "The
two societies used to perform so many
functions on the campus which have
been taken away from them and given
either to the oflicial University or to
some other organization that the socie
ties have not found their exact duty
yet?"
In discussing the second question as
to whether the societies fill a funda
mental need on the campus, Mr. Brown
said: "There are four fields of activity
on the campus religious, physical, so
cial and intellectual. With regard to
the first two, the societies have no con
cern, but in the social field, the socie
ties fill a need which is not supplied by
the fraternities and the Y. M. C. A.;
and in the intellectual field they take
the place of class discussions, of which
there are very few.
"As regards a remedy to the present
period of lethargy, 1 believe the fault
lies largely with the society members
themselves. There is too much dead-
wood and it should be eliminated. Sec
ond, the programs are often not attrac
tive because members negleet to prepare
their work properly. Al It his, however,
can be remedied by prompt action, so
let us take heart and carry on."
Other officers installed with Mr.
Brown were W. J. Cocke, Jr., secretary;
E. D. Apple, first censor-uiorum, and
E. L. Justus, second ceusor-morum. An
nouncement was made that the society
proposed to hold a smoker next Satur
day night and "Pike" Trotter, chair
man of the committee, promised a good
time to all who would come.
J. M. Roberts, Jr., of Aslieville, and
II. A. Breard, of Monroe, La., were iui
tiated into active membership iu the
society. .
Grail to Run Dance
Next Friday Night
Changing the day of their customary
dances from Saturday to Friday, the
Order of the Grail will hold forth in
Uynum gymnasium Friday night from
9 :00 till 1 :00, or later. This is the
first Grail dunce since the holidays, one,
however, having been given the week be
fore they began.
The Grail admits that the last dance
was a failure in so far as joy was con
cerned. As a result of this, they are
making a conscientious effort to put the
next one across, mid an effort is going
to be made to "import" some talent from
nearby towns. At present it is not
known just what orchestra will furnish
the music, but, us usual, it will be one
of the locals. No promises are going to
be made for this dance. The managers
are going to try to put this one over,
making it the best of the year. If it
falls through, there will be nothing to
take back. The usual may be departed
from in that something (?) may be serv
ed in addition to the music.
MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY
PROFESSOR PRAISES
ENGINEERING SCHOOL
Professor II. E. Higgs, Dean of the
Civil Engineering School of the Universi
ty of Michigan came to Chapel Hill for
a few hours last Thursday while on a
Southern business trip. Professor Higgs
dropped by merely for a short visit and
observation o Carolina. He, being at
the head of a great school of engineering,
was callable in a few moments to recog
nize the progress which our engineering
schools are making, and to appreciate the
modern laboratories and courses of in
struction which he found here.
Although Professor Higgs has been a
recognized authority on engineering, he
was unaware of the importance and rank
of the University of North Carolina's
Engineering Schools. After his visit and
the comments which he made it is evi
dent that he willingly accords North Car
olina University a high place in the en
gineering schools of the country.
Dr. It. E. Coker is to be in charge,
during the summer, of the Marine Bio
logical Laboratory of the United States
Bureau of Fisheries at Woods Hole,
Mass.
CO-OP STUDENTS ARE
BACK ON HILL AGAIN
Brauue Commends General Beiring
Personality and Address of Co
operative Students.
The second section of the co-operative
studeuts of the engineering schools
came in lust Monday from their vari
ous jobs out in the state. The first sec
tion was already on tho job Monday
uioruing ready to take their places
just as if no shifting had occurred.
This new system is proving more of
a success every day and sufficient time
has now elapsed since it was instituted
here to note highly favorable results.
The work which the men have rendered
has in every case been highly satisfac
tory according, not to fancy or hearsay,
but to actual reports of the employers
themselves. A considerable improve
ment in the men is also easily notice
able, not only from mere observatiou
but from actual results in their work.
Prof. G. M. Braune, dean of the engi
neering school and largely responsible
for the installation and -success of the
co-operative system, says: "The general
bearing, personality and address of the
co-operative students has markedly im
proved, and their grasp of things is a
great deal better."
Progress of this note not only in the
caliber of men in Carolina's engineering
schools but in the organization and
equipment of the schools themselves
makes it evident that within a few
years with continued progress Caro
lina's engineering schools will be sec
ond to none in the country.
TAR HEEL TRACK MEN
MEET TRINITY FRIDAY
Prospects for Overwhelming Victory
Are Bright Carolina Should
Win 12 First Places.
Carolina has its second trial of the
season on the cinder path with Trinity
College Friday afteruoou on Hanes field
in Durham.
On the face of the evidence, Caro
lina's track team didn't show up so
well down there in South Carolina, and
no doubt some are pessimistic about the
outcome Friday. It would take the out
put of several horse-shoo factories to
put the Methodists in first plcue in this
little fracas.
Here are the events which Caroliua
will win first place in, and there are
very few of the 14 which are being left
out: 100, 220, low and high hurdles,
440, 880, mile, two mil, discus, shot
put, javelin, polo vault. Trinity will
win first place in the high jump, and
it is possible, but hardly probable, that
they might get the sante in the broad
jump.
Not that this meet is going to be
any great walk away, and that im
pressive time is going to be made in
each event; on the contrary, in the
case of the latter, the time is liablo to
be awful slow since Bob Fetber is a
good enough track general to hold up
for State College the following Satur
day, while in the case of the former, it
would be hard to win anything but first
place in the events named.
Bell Visits Chem
Labs In The North
Dr. J. M. Bell returned on Wednesday,
the eleventh, after passing n week ex
amining the chemical laboratories of
the more prominent schools in the North.
He was accompanied by Mr. Atwood.
During the trip he visited Yale, Cornell,
Mass. Institute of Technology, Buffalo
and Toronto.
The new chemical laboratory just
opened at Yule is probably the best In
the United States. It was erected at
a cost of two million dollars during a
period of two years. This building was
financed by the interest on the Sterling
bequest of 18 million dollars which was
given to Yale a short time ago. The
building is on an entirely new plan and
represents a radical departure from the
conventional plan of laboratories.
Y" WANTS SIXTY MEN
TO ATTEND BLUE RIDGE
The Y. M. C. A. committee will begin
Mondny to secure the delegation for the
Blue Ridge Conference, June 11-21. The
minimum delegation this year will be
sixty. Some twenty-five or mow men
have already been signed up. Last week
a collection of photos and charts con
cerning Bine Uidge were displayed in
the lobby of the Y. M. C. A. The photos
gave some idea of the wonderful scenery
at Blue Hidge. The grounds and build
ings together with several of laHt year s
delegations from Southern colleges, was
shown. There was nlso displayed a
chart in the form of a heart giving data
about the work and the facilities.
