Tuesday, January 15, 1924 THE TAR HEEL Page Three CARR IS NOW FIREPROOF The Carr Building is no longer a death-aiding firetrap. Two brick firetowers have been erected in this dormitory and danger to students from possible fire has now been great ly diminished, according to word from the offices of Atwood and Nash, Universiiy architects, who have been remodeling several of the dormitories around the campus with the inten tion of making them safer for the oc cupants. Fire escapes have also been order ed and will soon be installed in the New East, New West, Battle, Vance, and Pettigrew dormitories, according to Mr, Atwood. .' "' Fraternities Move Into New Quarters With the beginning of a nc-w nuar ; ter, several of the Fraternities .are making changes in their Halls. Tins week Theta Chi has moved from the ; Kluttz Building to the new bunding ivliirVi is iusi beina- comnlete.l. onno- site the "JficK." bigma JNu has moved location. : Chi Tau and Cammi Delta have, ? also taken up residence in the two ; mi.Idle rooms of the new buili'ing. A ; regular bodlam of washing, waxing, moving, and sweating has besn going, , on there for the past few days. Work to Begin On Connecting of Pipes 'Tis now time for occupants of the Old West, Old East, and South dor mitories to let out one warwhoop,' un ' dress with a' rush, rush on a. bath robe, rush into the shower rooni;'a'nd take a nice hot 'bath the kind here tofore received by the said inmates in installments under the wearing showers 'of Bynum Gymnasium. - The long promised hot water which occupants of these dormitori?s have long looked forward to will soon be connected in a manner which will enable students in the three dor mitories named to have hot 'baths. Work on the connecting of the pipes to these dormitories will start at once, it is announced. NORMAN FORESTER ' CO-EDS GO OX RAMPAGE ' The masculine portion of the cam pus was rudely taken aback Satur day when the Co-eds . sallied forth from Russell Inn and undertook to capture the tennis courts behind Me morial Hall, heretofore regarded as mere man's most sacred sanctuary on the Hiill. One round and plump member of the Co-ed colony was sighted indulg ing hi mixed singles at about three o'clock. Shortly afterwards she made her departure and around four P. M. made her , return, considerably strengthened by the addition of an other member of her sex, the spon sor of last year's ill-fated knicker movement. - Why they left their court at Rus sell Inn and sought to take over one of the few courts on the campus,' is a question for psychology experts well versed in the workings of a Wo man's brains. At any rate, the two adventurous Co-eds found the courts retaken' and , strongly fortified by in habitants from Steele dormitory, and were repulsed :Ay),th'1hea,vy losses; The die-hard. flporients of co-education at Caroling , are, pointing !their fingers at this. happening with 'an' "I told you so? air along wi'the old saying "If jpdir give them .an jric.h they'll, take a mile." ' ' ' - ; ' f The1 University is' soon to. put. Cor bin Night patches on the doors of all the dormitories',1 according ;'t to a statement njade,by B.' L. Burch, Sup erintendent of Buildings. The order has already been sent in and the new locks should be fixed on every door the firht part of February. During the fall quarter tha old lock system was' the source of gnat trouble and, expense to the Univer sity. Complaints of lost keys and poor locks poured into Mr. Burch's office daily to such an extent that a change in the locking system was decided upon. The new locks are similar to Yale locks with a master key system. A small deposit will be required from each student, and if a key is lost, a duplicate can be made quickly by the University, thus do ing away with the former delay of sending to the factory for new keys. Young men or young women of Carolina, Chapel Hill, or vicinity, in terested in a summer course in rirst Aid and Life Saving should get into . communication with Dean F. F. Brad shaw, according to announcement from the office of Dean of Students. The American Red Cross plans this summot-to conduct a First Aid and Life Saving Institute near Ashe ville, and people interested are re quested to notify Mr. Brausnaw. Norman Foerster, Professor of English, in collaboration with G. R. Elliott, of Bowdoin College, is the author of a new text book, "English Poetry of the Nineteenth Century" which has received favorable com ments from leading college profes sors and reviewers. Dr. Foerster is using the book on the course he is pving this quarter, English 51. This is his second book within a period of two years, the first one being, "Na ture in American Literature." ".''.'" "English Poetry of the Nineteenth Century" contains well arranged se lections of poetry from 1798 to 1914 :ntended to make clear the thought and development of poetic art of the period. While the major attention is given the chief poets, the secondary poets are not overlooked and are plac ed in the order of their importance, so as to afford a clearer definition "o the scope of the period. .-..The MacMillan Company, Publish irs,' have the following to say of the book: "Unusually complete, balanced jand illustrative of the central spirit and tendency of nineteenth centur :poetry, the book js well adapted, .in both text and notes, for those who wish to do systematic reading of mod ern poetry, ; Its readers will be stim ulated to enjoy, reflect, and dis- PHI DEBATE PRELIMS Preliminaries for the freshmen in ti a-society debate in the Philanthrop ic Assembly will be held Wednesday night, according to recent announce ment. The query to be discussed is "Re solved: That the United States should join the World Court." About a dozen freshmen hae an nounced their intentions of partici pating in the preliminary. The fi nal debate will be held early during the winter quarter. During the past week B. H. Seru nian has been exhibiting a number of hand-made Persian rugs on the second floor of the Y. M. C. A. These jjti&s were shipped from Persia aboutfix. months ago and only arrived diir-, ing the Christmas holidays. AfiJ'of these are genuine hand-made fugs and are very beautiful. Several ; of them have been sold alreadv. :hnt there, are still a number lef- to be seen.- Persian curtains are also on display in the same room. Both the rugs and the curtains are different from any that are seen usually, n ' They will be shown on Tuesdav. Thursday, Friday and Saturday from J:UU to 5:00 to all who wish to. see them in the same room. V,' ith. the , Varsity squad running smoothly, Coach Shepherd turned his attention to the, Freshman Class and issued "a call for .. practice ' early last week. Some hundred or more re sponded and the. new Indoor Athletic Activity Building, was overrun with the vast assemblage of Freshmen clad in a motley array of uniforms. A glance over the men out for practice discloses a surprising pauci ty of promising' material with but few showing more than mediocre ability. ; Coupled with this comes the disaster of four, out of the seven most promising freshmen failing, to 'pass off enough work last quarter to be on the eligible list, ' i . The paring down process will prob ably start early this week and invis ible" pink slips will be handed out bv the-wholesale until , the squad is re duced to workable proportions. don, who will attend the meeting JViday, are: J.
