CAPTAIN CASEY MORRIS AND HIS
FAST ELEVEN TO JOURNEY OVER
TO DURHAM AND MEET TRINITY
Reports From the Methodist
Camp Are to the Effect That
Game Will Be Close
CAROLINA IS CONFIDENT
One Team Will Be Knocked Out
of the State Championship
Friday
After a two weeks rest, broken
only by the scrub's late siesta with
"Old Eli", the Varsity has fully pre
pared itself to enter what is pro
bably the deciding stretch in the race
for the State Championship. In all
probability the winner will be de
cided within the next ten days and
more than likely on Friday, Oct. 12,
when Carolina and Trinity celebrate
University day, twelve miles away,
on Hanes Field. Coach Fetzer, ap
parently sensing this contest as the
crisis of the season refused to take
the Varsity to Yale in order that it
might be in the pink of condition on
Friday.
If Trinity can be disposed of, it
will leave Carolina with two wins
and two to go. State, who will be
played on the following Thursday, is
usually Carolina's strongest oppo
nent as it is her biggest game and
is played on her home ground. State
appears to be much weaker than is
Trinity this year and in case the
latter is well beaten there should be
but little trouble with the Wolfpack.
Davidson is the fourth and last of
the North Carolina Colleges on the
schedule and is played on Nov. 17th.
' From the loud and continuous re
ports arising from Durham the Meth
odists have whipped into shape a ter
rible machine, a self-styled steam
roller, and have been literally bap
tising their opponents rather than
sprinkling them, as good Methodists
should do. In her two games this
season she has christened her two
opponents with a total of 122 points

DI DISCUSSES KU
KLUXKLAN ISSUE
Governor Walton's Action
Against Ku Klux Is Sound In
Eyes of Di Society
The Di Society held its regular
meeting Saturday night, October 6.
The question for discussion for the
evening was: Resolved that the Di
Society go on record as favoring

Ku Klux Klan in Oklahoma. Speak
ers for the affirmative were L. JI.

II. Coltrane, J. W. Doyton, W. E.
Drake, and those for the negative
wore E. L. Justice, A. E. Mclntyre,
and Tommy Turner. At t'.e end of
the discussion the society voted al
most unanimously in favor of the
affirmative.
An amendment was made to the
constitution providing for the low
ering of the dues to 2.00 a year and
tne initiation lee to Jtio.UU. A com
mittee was appointed by the presi
dent two weeks ago to meet with a
similar committee from the Phi As
sembly for the purpose of lowering
the dues in both bodies. These com
mittees met and as a result framed
the above amendment which has been
passed by both societies.
L. K. Watt was elected first cen
sor moriim to fill the vacancy left by
L. T. Biedsoo.
President Raper appointed a com
mittee to see all those freshmen who
took part in debating and public
speaking in high school and who live
in the western part of the state, and
freshmen was looked up and a list
of over two hundred men was fur
nished by Dean Bradshaw. The eom
mitt.ee is composed of: C. Raper
Jonas, chairman, Leonard Muggins,
A. E. Mclntyre and A. L. Groce.

two weeks. The pins will have the
Di emblem on them.
The following men were nken into
the society and initiated: J. L. Kapp,
C. R. Shuford, P. H. Greenwood, L. E.
Hauser, and B. W. Griffith.
The question for discussion by the
society for next Saturday night . is
Resolved: That the Federal Govern
ment should guarantee tho farmer a
fair price for his wheat. There vill
also be a humorous address by J. W.
Deyton.
THE POST OFFICE
SITUATION BETTER
Official Sanction Has Already
Peen Given For Town De
livery To Begin November
At last the post office situation is
beginning to assume a favorable as
pect. Everything is being hurried
nlong as fast as possible. The post
-iffice inspector is expected to arrive
-t Chapel Hill in a few days and
possibly Tuesday. He will then turn
in his report and when it is passed
ipon a man will come to Chapel Hill
-nd moke preparations for town de
ivory. Dean Royster says that the
officials in Washington were very
feasant and that they were trying to
remedy the condition here as fast as
they possibly could. Official sanction
has already been given for town de
ivery to bt'gin on November first,
provided that the government regu
lations have been fulfilled. This, of
course, means that the students will
receive their mail in their dormitor
ies. The government regulations - pro
hibit the putting of more than two
;en to a box, unless they are in the
;ame family. When the system is.
jotten to working there will be a
box for each room, placed on th? first
floor, where the mail will be delivered
wica a day. This will do away with
the loss of time going to the post
;ffice and also will save the money
-pent on rent.
The regulations for the town de
livery are that at least fifty per
cent of the houses on the block must
have boxes before mail will be . de
ivered in that block. So it ' all
owes down to the proposition of
getting the equipment ready. Just
.. soon as it can be installed in the
dormitories after November first, le
ikiy will begin. The only two pos
sible things that could possibly keep
this from going througn is the in
ability of the University to get the
boxes quickly and the chance that
mailmen may not be procurable. Pro
bably the post office officials will put
in temporary carriers until they can
jet some one who has passed the
civil service examination. Although
nothing definite may be promised, i,
is almost certain that the system will
be in good working order by Christ
mas and probably by Thanksgiving.
The boxes in the post office will
still b;; for rent to any one desiring
one for some special reason, but for
ihe main part they will be taken up
by people who will not get tho ear
lier service.

Carolina made only one first down
during the whole game and that was
put over by Jeff Fordham, Christy's
younger brother, towards the end of
the third quarter. The University's
punting was equally as miserable as
ground gaining. Several punts gained
less than ten yards, due to their go

down the precious few acceptable

GRAIL DANCE IS
! A BIG SUCCESS
The $4000 goal of the "Y" finan
cial campaign has been more than
half reached, and special plans for
this week will probably bring forth
the entire amount. Failure to reach
the quota in the expected timu war,
largely due to the fact that n large
part of the students were ont when
the canvassers visited their rooms.
Students who have not be-n ap
proached and who would like to make
a contribution to the Y. M. C. A. arc
asked to drop by the "Y" office. Mem
bers of the cabinet will try this week
to see as many students as possible.
The average amount per student was
entirely satisfactory, and the raising
of the full quota will depend only on
the entire student body beinr reach-ad.

Dance Was One of Best
Grail Dances
The Grail dance last Saturday ev-
j ening was a big success and accord
ling to those present it was among
tho best dances ever given by the
Grail. Other dances kept visiting
girls away and several of the co-eds
were prevented from coming because
of other social functions, but the
dance seemed to have been an en
joyable occasion because of the or
derly manner in which it was con
ducted. The chaperons were well pleased
at tho absence of any sign of intox
icating liquors and of any question
able conduct. This appeared to them
as good evidence that tho future
dances at the University will comply
with all the wishes of the faculty and
the German Club.
The Order of the Grail expects to
give other dances during the year
and it is expected that these will be
attended by many visiting girls. For
this reason the Order intends that the
Grail dances shall be among the big
social events of the campus during
the coming year.
Music was furnished by the Car
olina Club Orchestra which is direc
.ed by Hal Kemp, a saxophonist of
considerable promise. The Carolina
Club composed of Hal Kemp, Joe Gill
espie, Buster Waddill, Will Hicks,
Billie Vaught, Bob Dey and Fred
Spaugh, are rapidly organizing one
of the best student orchestras in the
South according to those who attend
ed the dance. This orchestra will
furnish music for future Grail dances
The Forsythe County Club held its
first meeting of the year last Fri
day night. A good number of the
men from Forsythe County were out
for the meeting. There was the
customary feed and bull session.
Friday is Founder's Day at the
University the most important day
in Carolina's history.
It was announced some time ago
that Secretary of Stats W. N. Ev
erett will be the chief speaker of the
occasion. He is a graduate of the
class of 188(1, and has long been
prominently connected with the Uni
versity, being a member of the buil
ding committee of the trustees and
a prominent member of the Alumni
Association.
Classes will meet as usual at the
8:30 and 9:30 periods. Following
these two class periods, all of the
students, both undergraduate and
graduate, will go to the Alumni Buil
ding, where, with members of the
Faculty, they will march to Memorial
Hail, the scene of the day's impres
sive ceremonies.
In addition to the services in Chap
el Hill, numerous associations of the
Alumni will also meet at various
places throughout the Atlantic Sea
board. From Boston to Jackson
ville, Carolina Alumni will gather to
do honor to their Alma Mater on
this date. Secretary Grant some
time ago estimated that about 75
such meetings will be held through
out North Carolina and the nation
on tins uate.
Officially, University Day is known
as "Founders'' Day." It is observed
annually in commemoration of the
130th. anniversary of the laying of
the cornerstone by General W. R.
Davie, founder ofthe University. This
momentous event took place on Oc
tober 12, 1793.
It is the custom at the Founders'
Day ceremonies to read the list of
Carolina students and Alumni who
have died during the year, together
with the date of death. Any student
or alumnus in anyway connected with
the University who passed to the
Great Beyond during the proceeding
year will bs recorded on this obituary
list, which will probably be read by
President Chase.
The observation of Founders' Day
is one of the most impressive cere
monies of the University's year.
The general public is always cordi
ally invited to attend these ceremonies.
Postmaster Herndon
Speaks About Boxes
Postmaster Herndon asks that
something be said about the prac
tice of plugging the locks on the
Post Office boxes with matches and
other similar things. It is a regula
tion of the postal authorities, that no
mail is to be delivered to boxes that
have broken windows or whose locks
are not in working order. Probably
most of the students do not slop to
think that the box is only bchig rent
ed and that it is not their property.
Several have been notified to this
effect and unless some attention is
paid to this warning they will soon
find that there is no mail being deliv
ered to their box. The officials real
ize that the students mean no harm,
but since it is contrary to the postal
regulations it must stop. The stu
dents are asked to take notice of this
and to co-operate with the men in
charge by refraining from tampering
with the box lock and from breaking
the glass fronts. Their assistance in
stopping this will be greatly appreciated.

'' an effort to meet the problems
of nn ever expanding University,
a novel meeting will be held Tuesday
night of committees representing the
faculty and students, in an effort to
inaugurate a series of monthly meet-
ings to consider all activities of the
j University, according to F. F. Brad-
'! shaw, Dean of Students.
, The real aim of this joint meeting
is to unify all activities of the cam-
ipus. Dean Bradshaw explains that
with a rapid growth of a University,
such as is now being experienced by
Carolina, there is a tendency to have
the college activities lose their unity.
The committees meeting Tuesday
night will seek to alter this situation
by bringing representatives' from all
the phases of college life together at
least once a month.
The faculty committee is composed
of F. F. Bradshaw, chairman; J. M.
Booker, W. S. Bernard, C. A. Hibbard,
W. J. Matherly, II. G. Meyer, Paul
J. Weaver, Dr. Roy McKnight, and
Mrs. M. If. Stacey, adviser to wo
men. The student committe, appointed
by President Julian R. Allsbrook, is
composed of himself, representing the
student body; C. B. Colton, editor of
the "Tar Heel"; Merle D. Bonner, the
President of the Athletic Association;
John T. Gregory, representing the
Pan-Hellenic Council; W. W. Gwynn,
President of the Senior Class; John
Purser, President of the Y. M. C. A.;

it is stated.
Pill DISCUSSES
FRESHMAN CAPS
F, I. Parker Sponsors Bill to
Have Freshman Wear
Skull Caps
The age-worn resolution seeking to
have the Phi Assembly go on record
as favoring the custom of freshmen
caps caused a spontaneous outburst
of discussion on the part of both up
nerclassmen and froshies, at the reg
ular meeting of the Assembly Sat
urday night.
F. P. Parker, Jr., one of the As
sembly's most antique, unique, and
eloquent members, was the sponsor
of said resolution. It evoked opposi
tion from all freshmen who express
ed themselves, whereas upper class
men seemed pretty evenly divided.
Henry Fuller made an impressive
plea against the resolution, while
David Livingston Ward, the orator
who made New Bern famous before
the fire, supported Parker's pet pro
ject. Despite his pleadings, it was
indefinitely tabled by a vote of 38
to 29.
A resolution to have the Philan
thropic Assembly go on record as
favoring the financing of the Y. M.
C. A. through a budget in a manner
similar to that of the Publication
Union, was passed by an overwhelm
ing vote, the tally being 44 ayes and
only 13 nayes. This resolution,
sponsored by the Ways and Means
Committee, brought up the most ser
ious discussion of the evening.
Five freshmen were iniated into
the Assembly. They were Charles
G. Grady, F. M. Daugherty, Ellis
Sparks, J. Lawrence Smith, and
Norfleet W. Vick.
A committee composed of Edwin
Lanier, K, D. Coates, Jr., and M. M.
Young was appointed to assign the
new members as representatives of
counties in the state.
Dr. F, C. VUbrandt, with four
members of his Industrial Chemistry
class Chemistry 11, went to Charlotte
last Friday to take in the Made-in-Carolina
Exposition. While there
they met two graduates of the Chem
istry department, Robert Diata and
Bingham Owens, now with tho Du
Pont Chemical Co.
