Tar Heels Are to be Delivered on Campus Beginning the first of next week, the Post Office will commence the delivery of mail to the various dor mitories. Two deliveries will be made each day, the morning round dis tributing the early morning mail and that of the night before. The after noon mail will handle the mail com ing in on the noon train. From now on Chapel Hill Office will adhere strictly to postal regu lations and will allow only one occu pant to a' box. In those cases in which there are two or three to the box it will be necessary that two shall vacate and if the postmaster is not notified who is to hold the box, two of the occupants will be arbi trarily checked off. In order to assure prompt delivery of the Tar Heels to the students, the circulation department has decided to inaugurate its own room to room de livery beginning with the issue of next Tuesday. Heretofore there has been considerable delay in getting the Tar Heels to the students due to the inability of the post office to handle the great number of papers that are sent out twice a week. In order to prevent any further delay and in order to get the papers to the students while the news is still hot, Circulation Manager, Bill Way, Jr. announced Friday his determination to facilitate delivery by this new system. In addition to giving the students the Tar Heels fresh from the press the proposition opens up a new field for self-help men. Bids for delivery deliveries of these papers will be re ceived by Mr Way either at his room No. 21 Steele or through the mail, box 654. Since it is necessary to begin this town and dormitory with next Tuesday's issue, it is desired that bids be sent in at once so as to perfect the necessary plans, the first propositions submitted being given preference over later ones. According to Mr. Way any information desired may be se cured by calling on him at his room.

Cobb Leads Scoring; Carmichael Follows One hundred and ten field goals and seventy two foul goals, making a to tal of 292 points is the record of Jack Cobb. star. forward on the basketball team. . This is helieved here to be a state record if not a southern record. Cobb, who hails from Durham, has been considered one of the best bas ketball player.s in the South this year, and his record of points goes to prove this fact. Cartwright Carmichael, also from Durham, trailed his fellow-townsman one hundred - points. He scored 79 field goals and 34 free shots, totaling 192 points. This is Carmichael's last year on the Tar Heel team and one of his most successful. He has been one of the big guns of the Universi ty quint for four years. "Monk" McDonald comes third in scoring honors, the diminutive guard scoring 129 points for the season. He caged 44 field goals and 31 foul goals in the nineteen games in which he took part. Captain Winton Green scored 95 points in twelve games. An injury to his leg kept Green out of practi cally one half of his team's games. His average was almost eight points a game. Billy Devin, who has played In only ten full games, comes fifth with twenty one field goals and ten foul goals for a total of 52 points. Dod derrer came next with twenty field goals and eight foul shots, making 48 points. The other points of Carolina's to tal of 824 for the season were made by Johnson, Poole, and Koonce.sub- stitutes. The records o. Carmichael and Cobb are outstanding. The two men together scored 484 points in twenty two games; which is quite a record for two men on the same team. The figures do not include any of the games played in the southern in tercollegiate tournament.-' CHARLOTTE MEETING An interesting group meeting will be that held in Charlotte of the Teach ers of Sociology in Southern colleges which is being called by the Depart ment of Sociology of the University of North Carolina on March 25th and 26th to meet in conjunction with the State Conference of Social Work.

PROCLAIMS FRESH SNOW CHAMPIONS First Snow in Two Years Finds Campus Ready for Snow . Fiffht By L. A. Crowell Innumerable black eyes, bruised and swollen faces and hands, in ad dition to scores of broken window glasses and cauliflowered ears is the result of the most terrific snow battle held on the University campus in years. After a snow of about nine or ten hours and the ground had been cover ed by a snowfall of about three inch es, the campus offered a perfect op portunity for the annual freshman- Soph combat. There was no snow last year, and therefore no battle, but Wednesday's battle more than made up for the lost one. The battle did not confine itself to any one local ity, but was fought all over the cam pus. Scarcely was there a spot any where where the snow was left smooth. Blood stains were numerous in spots where the battle waged the hottest. The first of the battle, or war, may be said to have started in front of the post office about dinner time Wednesday. A band of fun-seeking sophs assembled themselves there and made life miserable for every person who came into their sight who resem bled a freshman in any way. A number of chastised freshmen smarting under their punishment, de termined to take revenge on their persecutors and anyone else who dar ed to oppose them. About two or three hundred of them gathered around the well, formed a union and went on the war path towards the post office'. However, when they reached there, all the sophs had dis persed and they found themselves an enemy. In the meantime, the sophs, having seen the gathering of the freshmen, gathered also around the well and took their stand, securing every man available. After giving a few rousing yells and cheers the frosh set out up Frankiln street, turned into Colum bia and proceeded to Swain Hall, where they called a halt to rest and draw up a plan of battle. During this time their numbers had been in creased by many volunteers. Under the capable leadership, the fresh pres ently began to move down Cameren avenue. Wave after wave the fresh came in overwhelming numbers. They swept around the corner of Old West and the fight was on. The fresh line wavered a moment when they hit the withering fire of the unrelenting sophomores. Soon, however, their (Continued on Page 4) TAR HEEL FIVE WINNERS OVER THE GENERALS In Fastest Game of Year Caro lina Is Returned Winner by 26-17 Score BILL DODDERER STARS In the fastest game played in the "Tin Can" this year, Carolina defeat ed Washington and Lee, 26-17, thus ending her 1924 season undefeated, and undisputed becoming the South Atlantic Champions. The game marked the last appearance of Cart- wright (Cart) Camichael game and Angus (Monk) McDonald in North Carolina as University basketball players. The Washington and Lee team fought for the game from beginning to end putting up the hardest fight seen here this season and winning the admiration of the student body. Twenty-one fouls were called on the Generals due almost entirely to over eagerness in guarding, and Lake and Cameron were forced to leave the floor. Dodderer, as stationary guard was largely responsible for breaking up the Virginian's offence, und in ad dition scored five of the Tar Heel's points. Cart Carmichael was the Tar Heel star, tying with Cobb in scoring field goals, intercepting nu merous passes and twice tipping in the ball for a field goal after his team mate's attempt from the foul line had bounced out of the basket. Carolina was completely off in foul shooting, McDonald dropping in only three out of ten trials, Cobb did but little better, caging three out of nine attempts. Enough fouls were called on the Generals to have enabled Car olina to have won the game without securing a single field goal. Captain Winton Green went into the game in the last few minutes as a substitute for Devin. His leg was still bandaged up as-a icsuii wnw. injury received while on the trip through Virginia and in. all probabil ity he will not see action in any of the tournament games. Dodderer opened scoring for Caro lina when he intercepted a Washing ton and Lee pass and immediately found the basket for a field goal. Cobb was given two tries from the foul line and dropped in the ball for one count. Carmichael then took the ball from center and caged a beaut iful shot from almost mid-court. Cobb shot another foul goal and De vin sent a pretty shot through the basket from the left side-line. Cobb then took the ball from center and scored a field goal in Carmichael style. With the score 8-0 Washing ton and Lee called for time.
