time, since funds are lacking to
complete the whole building,
The cost of this unit will be ap
proximately $250,000. The
whole building is estimated to
cost $400,000 when completed.
The campaign for this me
morial was started in 1919 soon
after the death of Edward Kid
der Graham, but was abandon
ed soon afterwards on account of
the financial depression. Last
summer, however, plans were
renewed and student ami alumni
canvassers were sent out over
the state to raise the amount.
At 'present: alumni canvassers
are out trying to complete the
campaign.
The building, w hich will be
used as a student activity buil
ding, will be two stories high
and of the old Georgian style of
architecture. The first floor
will include a lobby, lounging
rooms and small ollices.'ioiv.the

The Carolina Freshmen foot
ball squad, containing some of
the most promising material in
vears, ended its season rather
poorly, losing to the Citadel and
Virginia Freshmen on two con
secutive Saturdays.
During the season, the Frosh
eleven played 10 games, won six,
lost three, and tied one. In one
respect they did not equal the
record of the 1922 freshmen
team; they did not conquer Vir
ginia. Under the tutelage of Grady
Pritchard, "Red" Johnston, and
Norman Shepard the Froshies

After a rest of a week and a
half, the latest reports assert
j that both Carolina and Virginia
I are in the pink of condition for
j their 27th. annual contest,
j There has been much specula-'
I tion as to whether Diffey, Cava-
Her quarterback, and Captain
I Blackford will be able to play,
I but although no official an
nouncement has been received
from the Virginia coaching staff,
: it is believed by close followers
i of the game that both men will
i take the field this afternoon. The
i Virginia squad arrived in Dur
ham last night where they will
remain until a few hours before
