THE TAR HEEL:
THE WILDERNESS
BY J. OSLER BAILEY .
At least, folks with money on the
Blue and White didn't lose anything
Thanksgiving.
The above statement is only a
half-truth. The fellows who invest
ed in pennants, ribbons, and arm
bands lost pretty heavily. Who wants
a soggy megaphone, a wet rag or a
pennant or anything else except a
raincoat and jsome dry hose, in the
; rain.''.
.
A couple of apple vendors didn't
fare with the pennant hawkers. Some
one threw an apple at the smart city
fellers who insisted on standing up
along the fence in front of everybody
else. That started a battle which, at
least,: succeeded in selling two bas
kets of apples and crushing one derby
hat. '
Water wasn't the only liquid per
meating chill bones, atmospphere, and
soil Thursday last. ' 'Algernon was on
hand- with Reginald for backfield
support. Algy was just a trifle lit,
and was still thirsty. He tilted a
pint-sized bottle of Orange - County
dew-drops to his parching lips, while
the bleachers heaved such a sigh that
Prondy thought Virginia had scored
a touchdown. He hiccoughed down a
goodly tankard load and leaned sere
nely back on Reggie. "Drinsh my
likker, Reg, 0 Top!" He handed the
bottle to Reggie, he thought. "Whash
doin', Reg?" he casually observed
as he heard a peculiar liquid gurgling
around Reggie's feet. He looked up
to Reg but saw instead our police
Force, Himself, bottle in hand, pour
ing five dollars out on the groutnd
with a most official smile. Cat-calls
from the bleachers feature the fade
away! . Water and lightnin' juice weren't
the only liquids in evidence at the
game: there must always be a right
smart of slop when fair ladies get
drunk together. We saw a couple of
them imbibing from a golden flask:
we heard some words we had never
heard before in spite of the fact that
we've been to sea with ten national
ities in sailors: the scene Was," to be
frank, nauseating.
Man may be something of a rotter,
himself but he wants his women
fine. It's the nature of the species.
He has come to take smoking and
promiscuous necking for granted in
the ultra-modern girl but when she
gets rotten drunk and starts her sickr
ly cussing it is utterly disgusting
to 'any folk of the male persuasion we
have ever seen.
When we got home after Thanks
giving we found in addition to the
Turkey hash, relic of Thanksgiving
dinner, a covey of six newly-shot
quail. . That puts us in mind J of a
somewhat tragic incident in our own
life:
The author, or the perpetrator, as
you choose, of the .. Wilderness
Colyum was once a great hunter. On
one occasion he even essayed to carry
a gun along. The dog started to
tree or is it point? a rabbit. The
rabbit was making about 60 or 80
right down a ditch, the dog hard be
hind. Our valiant hunter, Ourself,
if you please, raised his douehtv
weapon and fired point-blank at the
rabbit. But the rabbit and the dog
were both traveling so fast that when
the shot reached the rabbit, it hit the
dog. The dog died. Since that fun
eral event, the great outdoor sport
for us has been fishing.
At that, in our opinion, the best
way to go fishing is to take a good
book along and leave the bait at
home.
The old Campus can hardly be
said to be a thing of beauty
just now. But good excuses can
be offered for a great part of
the clutter. The large building
program which is now going on
is the cause of much of it. New
athletic fields, new class buil
dings, not to mention the re
modeling of Old East, necessi
tates a great deal of untidiness.
Many are of the opinion that it
should be entirely rebuilt, but
something must be pardoned to
the cause of sentiment. The
thing which will trouble many
alumni will doubtless be the
fact that they will be unable to
take their relatives and friends
through this old edifice, and
relate to them, with the closest
attention to detail, just how it
was when they roomed in the
old affair. Perhaps it is just
as well, for they would hardly
recognize it as the place they
knew.
DR. SHEPHERD
(Continued from Page 1)
fine points in the relations between
the United States and Latin Amer
ica he delighted his audience with
fresh satire and dry humor.
AUDIENCE AGHAST
The speaker took two stands which
were indeed shocking to his audi
ence. The first of these was the
assertion that the same relations be
tween the United States and Latin
America would have occurred, Mon
roe Doctrine or no Monroe Doctrine.
"These would have arisen and de
veloped anyhow, if none of the au
thors of it had ever lived," he said.
"They have proceeded, instead, from
the huge expansion of the United
States and from the relative back
wardness of the Latin-American coun
tries, which have given to the Uni
ted States an international position
unique in the world." :
This learned authority also declar
ed that the Monroe Doctrine "doesnt
work but is workable." To this may
be added his statement that there
never has been an occasion thus far
in the history of the United States
for1 the use of tha Monroe Doctrine.
NO PEDANT
Throughout his sppeech, in sup
port of his contentions he never ad
vanced fine drawn distinctions, the
bulwark of the average college pro
fessor, and strange to say pvefcrred
the concrete to the abstract. Though
at times above the college student,' it
may be said in his favor that rarely
did he play the part of the pedant.
In opening his speech he said that
the Monroe Doctrine and our rela
tions with Latin American republic
was a three sided relation a trian
gle composed of Europe, the United
States and Latin American republics.
Theri he brought out the American's
disregard 1 of the Latin American
viewpoint stating that unless it "is
given due consideration, its g.uine
meaning will ever be elusive and contradictory."
PRINCIPLE SELF DEFENSE
. j ... -j
"Distinctions between a true an J a
false, an original and a derived, Mori
roe Doctrine should never be drawn!
It is neither obsolute nor moribund,
nor vagarious nor changeable. The
fundamental principle it sets forth
remains today what it has alvays
been: that of national-self-defence for
the United States." u
On top of this he asserted that
therefore ; the Monroe Doctrine be
longs exclusively to the United States.
Under the same conditions and sail
ing under a different name "the:
principle would be equally local and,
peculiar to any and every other in
dependent nation which asserts its
belief in the right of self defense. It
cannot properly be affirmed by joint
action with other nations. Nor can
it similarly be converted intd a world
principle."
NO DANGER AGGRESSION
From this Dr. Shepherd passed to
th fact that since the. war pf 1812
the United States has never, been in
danger of aggression either from Eu
rope oi the Americas. Then begin
ning a rather drastic dissection of the
interpreation placed on it now, he
said, "For upwards of twenty years
after its pronouncement no effort was
made to enforce the Monroe Doctrine
in any of the senses wh'.h hav j been
read into its obvious meming: and
none in accordance with that mean
ing has been made since. The Mon
roe Doctrine, in fact, has never been
applied at' all, because there has been
ho reason to apply it."
