Vol. XXXIII, Oct. 16, 1923, No. 8 After carefully observing the gro tesque display of gaudy garbed mas culine limbs at the Forest Theatre we felt sincerely grateful" for the modern styles. The Tar Heel extended itself in the last issue to give the student body a timely account of the Trinity-Car olina game. Immediately after the final whistle the reporter rushed the story bsck tso Chapel Hill, the paper was set up, the press rumbled all night, and the Tar Heels were de livered to most of the rooms bsfore the state papers. It was more or less of an experiment, and the result: warrant a continuance of the same policy on special ocaesioiis. ATHLETIC STANDARDS A daily college paper delivered to every room en the campus before the Old South bell tolls its matin shoId be the goal of all students interested in journalism. lhe university is large enough now fer a daily, and if the proper encouragement and iiv tertuit is shown, the dream should b come a reality. This biings up the salient fact that the University of fers ho courses in journalism this year. Ideal weather, the charming s?t ting of the Forest Theatre, and a creditable performance by the Play makers furnished an enjoyable aft ernoon for the large crowd that wit nessed the "Taming of the Shrew." Professor Koch dominated the play as Hie whirlwind lover and husband, aad. by his own skilful! interpreta tion infused enough spirit and life i(o his disciples to give a prefes iiiimn! tinge to an amateur performance. There wer fully aa wany womea as men in the audience which in cites that a work of art in Chapel Kill works more powerfully oa the feminine mind than the masculine. The belated issue of the Magazine contained a spninkling of good read jig matter, a portfon ef bad, and a large dose of indifferent. There is considerable room for improvement in the make-up, the printing, and the literary eentent. Chapel Hill should b a deserted Tillage next Thureday.

An appreciation ef yevr eighbor'e difficult!, should cool foiWion and invito team work. The aggressively hostile tactics dis played by several members of the Trinity. in Friday's game, gave an un pleasant flavor to Carolina's well earned victory. With Carter as the chief offender, the Trinity team staged a shady exhibition of foot ball that was condemned by all lov ers of clean sport and that result sd in the inevitable a strained rela tion between the two teams and their followers. It would be unfair to cherish the belief that Trinity College approves of the unsportsmanlike behavior of the disturbers; no respectable insti tution of Trinity's standard could smile on public rowdyism that casts back an ugly stigma. ' Perhaps the difficulty was due to a poor coaching system or to the unrestrained ac tions of a few players who forgot their school consciousness in the heat of a fierce contest. This does not apply to the entire Trinity team. Cap tain Simpson, in particular, played a fine, clean game and repeatedly warned his men against unnecessary roughness. However, two or three rotten apples can spoil an entire bar rel. ; . Trinity has only been playing foot ball three years, and it is natural that mistakes will be made in the process of establishing a sound foot ball policy. A definite stand for fair play would. halt any growing tend encies on the the part of few in dividuals (of an unfriendly attitude.) If the instigators - of rowdyism are barred 'from the athletic field, furth er trouble ij automatically eliminat ed. ..'',- ' . ' There is a sharp line between fiercely fought football and vicious football. The former stamps- the college player and the latter the' pro fessional roughneck. The most in tense rivalry exists between State College and Carolina, yet the games oevond the two institutions have had no disagreeable aftermaths. They play ruggedly, but cleanly as well. Car olina and Trinity can maintain the same sta :lard, providing- the pro per precautions ' against roughness. are taken by Trinity. . The actions of last Friday point to a lively break in athletic relations un less a definite understanding is reach id. Carter's behavior aroused the university players to a fighting pitch diat coes -not irgue well for the har mony of future contests. Friction ba :veen the two athietb tonms fe apt :o . grow in intensity ad ba carried o the basketball court and baseball .iekl. Another contest of the same nature is sure to lead to a serious disturbance that would reflect on bath institutions. Carolina's athletic policy has hao i .rough uphill clhv.b, but it has con sistently strived for clean athletic; snd has taken the lead in establish ing eligibility rules and athletic hon n: A bretik with Trinity is not de sired, but is the only way out un less a guarantee is given that a rep etition of last Friday's afi'ah- will not occur again. I allowed myself to be duped; there is no doubt of it in view of the proof that has been shown me. To be sure, the mere loss of a few dollars a day, in itself, is not a thing to cause much care on the part of the student body; and it h not for this reason that I write. But the principle involved actual larcency in the University of North Carolina, where' the word "larcency" has been foreign ever since the advent of the honor system gives me g reat con cern. I believe this is a matter which will provoke thought among the leaders of our school, and I am quite certain that President Chase will be among the first to recognize the seriousness of it. A man who will steal apples will "crib", and it is well known to every one how "cribbers" are treated here. It is as certain as Eternity that any man caught stealing apples will be "shipped," and with as black a rep utation as if he had cheated. I know that if those stealers had gravely considered the reality of this state ment, they would not have stooped to the groveling position that they did. The deed is petty larcency; and, while petty larcency is not pun ishable to the extent of grand lar cency, it leaves a brand on the cul prit much more despicable in the ?yes of the world than the latter. Already a reward is being offered to anyone apprehending a man guilty of this felony, but this is not enough. The only hope to check this hazard to the honor system lies in the pow ir of the decent, self-respecting stu dents who are willing to set their foot down against those cheats who are handling the school's reputation so unscrupulously. I, for one, am among those who invoke the wrath of an outraged student body upon them. NADY CATES, jrv. Let us hope that someone soon finds a remedy for the epidemic of tag football that is overrunning the campus. Telephones have been installed in the Dorms. How soon now will we have bell-hops, dumb-waiters, and all the other accoutrements of the big hostelries.

The Tar KeeL Dear Ectttor: I have in mind a matter which. in the outlet, I vrould have it known uhat I have no financial interest in. but merely comment on because it weigks heavily on me, as it will on ivery other student when I neve dis posed tilva fasts. There is a group of young men here who, having been urged by the om sials of the University, undertook to put apples for sale in a number of die dormitories. I happened to be .alking 1o one of this group the oth- sr day, and he revealed something hat astonished me and will astonish very student who has the reputation 31 the institution at heart. Annies have -been atolen and thev have baen stolen in such quantities a to aqua! several dollars a day. If uo iays ago someone had asked me if I believed such a thing courd happen n the Umvorskr of North Caro lina, I would not orrfy have sard nr ' dulr would have been willing to strike money on it. Now, however, I am lonvmeed that, like a dotin? father, The reviewer in last week's Tar Heel with a supply of well-turned and characteristic phrases caused even sophisticated and now sophmoric 3oil Weevil to blush! The review displayed,.- certainly, a familiarity .vith the incisive expressions that arc uie stocK-m-trae or tne average nie- iiucre critic, and an absenca of quar ter toward a struggling campus in stitution; further than that, the mos noticeable thing about the review was a dearth of tact! The front cover of the B.i'I Wee vil illustrates a condition which, of course, could not exist at Caro lina (?).. In spite of the many insect de stroyers, the Boll Weevil is gaining ground in the South. They re still pulling that old tyie in the Di.

I gave my faith to you, Nancy, And given, I gave it forever, I gave my heart to you, Honey, I And I'm not an Indian giver. 'Tis not the fashion now, Nancy, To pledge one's word to a lover Or pledging, think of it deeply, A summer's words for the summer. I plead for faith in me, Nancy, Believe, till the robbing go flying; I'll come to prove to you, Honey, That love that is love is undying. American Shoe Skie Parlor Suit Pressed W. you W. 33c Hat Oeau in pr An unusually alert member of the class of '27 persuaded several more than usually simple fellow freshmen Lo tske the catalogue exam the oth ?r night. "You can take it from an uprer-classmsm now" he told them, "but if you wait till the end of the quarter, you'll have to take it from Dean Bradshaw, and he'll make k hard as the devil." After some concentrated study, the whole bunch pleaded with a soph omore to help them out and give the exam. The kind hearted soph gave ten emsy questions, and told them all that they made one hundred. Every one of the duped frosh went to the amiable steerer after they had gotten their grades, and tlianke.l him most earnestly for having put hera wise to such a good way of getting a required exam. A few more hunbs. are in the process of baing lead to the slaughter just now. A set of stilT .juastions such as "Why was the University not founded in 174G," are hiing prepared. The most interesting question which the exam brought forth is, whnc is going to happen to the hu morously inclined freshman stewer when thi3 is published? C. E. ENGINEERS TO STRUT STUFF John H. Dunlap, Secretary American Society of Civil Engineers, to Speak Here Tuesday, October 23, will be a red letter day among engineering circles here at the University. The William Cain Civil Engineering Society which is the student chapter of the Ameri can Society of Civil Engineers will have as speaker of the evening at their meeting on the twenty-third John H. Dunlap, Secretary American Society of Civil Engineers. On account of Mr. Dunlap's prom ience, a number of distinguished en gineers have baen invited here to meet him. Among those who will probably be present are William S. Lee, vice-president of the Southern Power Co., Charles H. Upham, chief State highway engineer, J. E. S. Thorpe, chief engineer of the Talas see Power Co., . at Badin, Gilbert White, consulting engineer, of Dur ham, and J. T. Chase, vice-president and chief engineer of the Roanoke Rapids Power Co. It is an interest ing coincidence that President H. W. Chasj, Mr. H. T. Chase and Mr. Dun lop were all at Dartmouth College together. After Mr. Dunlop's address on Tuesday night, supper will b served by the Wiliiam Cain Civil Engineer ing Society. Invitations have been issued to over one hundred mr.mlwN of the American Society of Civil En gineers in the State. On the following day Mr. Dunlop will meet tho.se members of Society who are dejirous of forming a State chapter. Prof. Thorndike Sa wlle has devoted quite a bit of time to this and nnuh interest has been aroused in securing a State chan ter. The University will ba the only in stitution in the State whiah Mr. Dun lop will visit. He is the head of 20,000 of the foremost engineers in the country and his visit indicates the recognition which the Engineering School has from this highly techni cal society. This is due in part to the scientific .writings of Major Cain which have attracted nation-wide at tention and to standing which the School itself has achieved through the leadership of Dean Braune. Delegates Will Go To Richmond, Va. The annual fall meeting of thf American Society of Civil Engineers will be held m Richmond October 17 18. Professors Braune, Saville.
