The former system of exposing desirable freshmen to a year's court ship by zealous fraternities has been an unncessary burden to the wooers and an unstabilizing influence on the wooed. The time and money spent in "rush-i ing' ' prospective candidates have been considerable, and the fact that pledging has been prohibited has given the fra ternities no security that their efforts were to bear fruit. The long siege of entertainment and attention levied upon raw fraternity material has tended to give the freshmen a perverted idea of college life in distracting them from the serious business of studies to the more alluring and less constructive activities in the social realm. More important than this, however, are the new regulations governing scho lastic regulations for fraternity candi dates, for the more rigid requirements clearly show that the Pan-Hellenic Council recognizes scholastic ability as a necessary requirement for fraternity prospects. The freshman with frater nity aspirations will be obliged, here after, to offer more than a proud ances tral line and a facility for dabbling in social activities. The new policy should materially uplift the personnel of the social organizations in that well round ed men will be sought after rather than the tea and cake variety. Ifella jtonnn was a pretty naughty girl, but not so illustrative after all Perhaps all she needed was a little spunk ing, in spots. . ja m m l lay aside my books and think ; I'm awful, awful lonely.

As we passed the back of the old South building yes terday, we saw. hanging high as Hanian, bed and all. a victim. On the gibbet, which extends out the window marked "22", hung a white bedstead, and prone that is, perpendicular, for the bed hung so, upon it, was the figure of a niau iu nightcap, his waist severed from his body, and his neck in two. There he flapped, sublimely oblivious that crowds were gai- ins at his jiajamss and ihe gruesome horror That they weml Murder had been thine; and the janiUT ctened it up: but we saw, ts saw.

B With the AVake Forest game safely tucked uway in its left hind pocket, and the State game a matter of the past, the University team is devoting all of its attention towards getting the house iu oiiler for the Trinity game over at Durham next Tuesday. Although the game falls in the very midst of examination week the present prospects point towards a wholesale mi gration of mighty hopeful students over to our star-like suburb to cheer the team 011 to victory and a good claim for hauipionship honors. Now that the team has struck a win ning stride the campus folks are very enthusiastic and praiseful of Coach Fet ter's crew. It is easy enough to root and cheer and boast and bet when the weather's fair and the sailing's smooth. WEAVER IS ELECTED TO COMMITTEE AT COUNCIL At the National Research Council of Music Education held in Cincinnati. Ohio, in April, which was n trended by many prominent musicians and music educa tors, there was elected from a list of thirty of the foremost music educators in the United States, a committee to look into the problem of music educa tion in the t'nited States. Some of those elected on the committee were, in order of the number of votes received, Will Earhart. University of Pittsburg. Karl Gehkins. , Oherlin. P. W. Dyhers, Uni versity of Wisconsin. Mr. I'nul John Weaver, he.id of our music department, came seventh. To be elected to this committee is considered a very high hon or, and the University of North Caro lina should be proud that its represen tative was so honored. This committee will organize in .lime in Asheville for the purpose of studying music conditions in the United States. They will make tests and measurements of individual progress, and by these they hope to be able to arrive at some plan of procedure. We are abaci well pleased with thei Satyr ! t ion ; delighted are we beyond words that J. Owen Woodside is at last among tbe hoofed ones. S S 8 We note with interest that Havshak- er's new organisation, the "Gilded Fuzz" is politically active. Already, they are showing iheir gratitude by boosting their initiator for office. Ilayshaker's cam paign for Cheer Lender is being vocif erously pushed by the Fuzz. Go to it. Oh, Fuzzy Ones, pollyticks is the heart that makes the blood go 'round at Caro lina. b s m We herald with joyful glee the arrival of Co-ed knickers. Thev show- nu tin. co-eds all right. They are illustrative, let us say, of what we have always con tended: Co-eds are a necessary part of the University if we are to have a well rounded institution. Coker Lectures To Soph English Class The Sophomore English classes, last Friday were given over to a lecture on Evolution, delivered by Dr. Coker. The lecture was resolved into five main topics, with particular attention given to the evolution of organic matter: Universal character of change. Varia tion, The prolific character of reproduc tion. Struggle for existence, Survival of the fittest. Dr. Coker handled his subject well, and with the aid of slides and plants, found around Chapel Hill, he was able to present some impressive facts. He showed the different stages of develop ment of the horse from the size of a Hull Terrier dog with five toes to the present day. The difference in Sweet William, Vetch,' and branches of the apple tree brought out the point of vari ations. For the prolific character of re production the human race was taken for an illustration. At the time of Christ there were about fifty-four million IM'ople. At the present day there are one billion people in the world. Open mouthed astonishment was ex hibited at some of the lecturer's state ments, such as, the world will probably go up in gas sometime, and that if one species was allowed to reproduce without check, it would soon crowd every other species off the face of the earth. On Friday, 25th, a 40 gallon still was discovered about one and a half miles west of Chapel I Kill. The still with about two or three hundred gallons of beer was concealed under some brush and was in full operation although there were no men with it. It was discovered in spite of its camouflage by its enchant ing odor which struck the nostrils of the sle nths. J tut that carries us back to the very near patt wnen so much criticism was raised by outsiders mid alumni over the poor spirit and rotten support given by the students to the team during the first of the season, when things looked black and blue for the boys. It may have been great siiort for our heroes of the bleach ers when they riled and raked their 'Isssmates during the lamentable Lynch burg and Guilford games but it was mighty poor inducements and absolutely no encouragement for the players to con tinue and try to win games. . The word "crippled" is getting to be I symmiiiions with Wake Forest. It's a rare thing these days to hear of a Wake Forest team getting beat unless it was crippled or shot-to-pieees. Of course it is undeniably true that the loss of String tieid and Clarke weakened the Wake For est team greatly aud we sincerely wish that they could have played so that the victory might have been untarnished and the revenge nil the more sweet. But two men have never yet composed a ball club and the fact thnt the Bap tists were unable to gather but one lone hit " off of Brysou in five long innings show that it wasn't any crippleness that lost the game. The denominational coaches of the state seem to have conspired against the state institutions. Neither the Wake Forest. Trinity nor Davidson coaches put Shirley on their all-state selections and the Davidson coach was even so rash as to leave "Casey"' Morris off. New Fad Strikes the Campus-Game of Peg A grunt, suggestive of sudden aud violent effort. A resounding whack of wood against wood. A short silence in which you sense profound mental esti mates and calculations. A tense voice, "Give you seventeen." Another drama tic pause. "Leave her lay." A moment of preparation. Then a whole series of heart-rending grunts,' each successive one expressive of increasing effort. You find yourself straining too, out of sympathy for those grunts. Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen. A faint gasp. "I made it. the fight is over the battle won. Every hour of the day, on every part of the campus, the above drama is be ing enacted. The name it goes by is "Peg." Its enthusiasts say it's a game, its critics say it s a tissue-tearing con test, and the uninterested ones say it's ust "ilamfoolishiiess." The object is to nr a little stick with a big stick as far is the Lord and other controlling factors will allow you. Then you give your op ponent n certain number of jumps iu which to reach your peg. If he makes it, he makes as many points as you gave him jumps. If he doesn't make it, you win the points. The game is ."2 points. All very simple. The really attractive feature of this new pastime is the simplicity of the equipment. When you decide tliat you need some real leg-stretching exercise. just get a wooden peg about sixx inches long, a stick four feet long to hit it with, an opponent and go to it. A final hint to the wise -wear reinforced pants. When jumping, the strain is terrific at critical places.

CALLED FOR AT THE OFFICE LAUNDRY DEPARTMENT U. N. C. ' "13" Dance Is One Of Best Of Season "Mule" showed his litter contempt for 1'liil T'tley's selection last Thursday when he smashed out the only home run that has been knocked out on the Wake For est diamond this year. Maybe I tley thinks a little better of Shirley now. If Mule will only give the Trinity coach a dose just as convincing over oil I lanes Field next Tuesday we believe that even that coach will admit "Mules does do" tolerably well even though he does play on a non-denominational team. Lefty Wilson, star moundsnian and fielder oil last year's team, is playing with the Danville Club of the Piedmont League and not with the Portsmouth Club of the Old Dominion circuit. v The work of centerfielder Wilson of the Portsmouth club has caused consid erable interest 011 the hill aud that gen tleman "has been pretty generally sized up as "Lefty" until the former Carolina player blossomed out last week with the Danville outfit, where he will alternate between the field and mound. . The University seems to have made a specialty of commencement games this year. Thus far she has performed dur ing the final ceremonies at Wake Forest and State and is yet to strut her mess at Trinity on June 7t, Georgia Tech at Atlanta on June f), Virginia at Char lottesville on June 11, and at Chapel Hill on June 12. John C. Drewry. with Miss Mary Hardee' of Kinston. led the "13" Club figure at their dance Saturday night. T. P. Cheesborough, with Miss Peggie O'Neal of Dallas, Texas, and Richard Young Thorpe, with Miss Charlotte Clements assisted. Needless to say it was one of the prettiest, well carried through figures of the seasou. Simply but very attractive doreens with "13" engraved on a black background in gold were distributed to the ladies in attendance. The girls present were some of the prettiest and most attractive ever seen iu the gymnasium. With the Carolina Club doing its "stuff" to the last degree, with the floor exactly right and the student body hav ing its last dance before examinations, naturally everyone felt like having a grand old time before the axe falls. Needless to say that they did. Dancing' was from ten to twelve when "Home, ' Sweet Home." sounded like Sherman's March through Georgia because it put a stop to dancing.

When the Hank of England receives a note back from cir culation, it is automatically canceled by having the signature of the cashier torn off. According to Mr. Hurch. Superintend ent of Buildings and Grounds, the dam age to individual rooms under the new system which was installed this year is much less than it has been in the past several years. However, damage to corridors and buildings has been on the increase. The probable reason for this is that the students pay 110 damage fee, but each one is held responsible for damage done in bis own room. Dam age done outside of the rooms is borne by Ihe University. Mr. l.urcli has requested that each student turn in the key to his room as soon as the room is vacated, as that will save much inconvenience and expense, since it takes nearly sixty days to get new keys from the factory. Quite a number of charming girls at tended the dance given by the Sigma Chi Fraternity Saturday afternoon. It was impossible to get a list of all who at tended. They were mostly North Caro lina girls but there were some from Pennsylvania, and several from Texas. The Carolina Club Orchestra could hardly have been better. Their music was about the best they have made this year. Despite the hot weather, n slight breeze made dancing pleasant. Ice cold punch helped to keep the thermometer down (piite a bit.' Tbe ball room of the Sigma Chi house is one of the largest on the hill but it was crowded to capacity. There were over twenty-five girls present and a host of stags. The ladies were dressed in light, rather long evening gowns. The mi 11 were dressed very informally ; cool and comfort was the most important idea. Dr. and Mrs. Uoyster, l'rof. and Sirs. Koch. Dr. and Mrs. Greenlaw, and Mr. and Mrs. Eddie nox were the chaperones for the occasion. Do You Need Extra Courses?

DO'S AND DON'T'S ARE GIVEN FOR LAW EXAMS Ylien it conies to keeping abreast with current topics on the campus the Law School is most efficient. In fact, it has been a source of some wonderment on the part of other and less proficient m flents, as to how they know so much. Their last feat, ten eoimnnmliiicnts of "f'.on'ts for exan "', in part explains and in nowise detracts from their reputation. Here they are for the good they may do others, 1.
