No. 38 Our idea of the tightwad is the fel low who'll borrow fifty cents from a poor, struggling barber in order to buy a package of razor blades. The Tar Heels drew a hard assign ment in the initial contest at Atlanta. Kentucky gave Virginia decisive lick ing and in their other games proved themselves to be one of the most dan gerous outfits in the tournament. If Carolina puts them out of the run nine, the championship will seem much nearer. Cobb is likely to be the sensation of the tournament. Carmichael, Mac Donald,, and Green are well known veterans to the other southern teams who have shown their wares in At lanta twice. - They are apt : to be closely guarded, giving Cobb a chance to run wild. " i. There are times when the Old South ball is a source of misery like a persistent alarm clock, and there are other times when it gives forth ; the sweetest music possible. ' At eight-thirty it is imperative and hate ful in its tone, but after a basket ball victory its chimes are cheerful and melodious. ' ' Carolina has already lost an in valuable asset to the (baseball team, Mule Shirley, who left to report with the Washington Senators,' and will soon lose an important cog in the coaching machine, Norman Shepherd, who will leave for China next month. Both Shepherd and; Shirley repre sent the highest type of the Carolina athlete and their places will be hard to fill. It takes a snow storm to let the freshmen realize their power. If they can maintain the spirit ' and enthu siasm through their remaining years in college that they showed Wednes day, the University will not suffer from lack of unity. there was nothing sensational about the snow scrap. It followed the same old course of procedure that has marked class fights for the last vix years: freshmen persecuted at Swain and the Post Office, the hose, intervention of student councilmen, and a victory to the freshmen, grudg ingly admitted by the sophomores. APPLE CART! THIEVES,, i j The man who will sell his honor for the pqce of an apple oa'piece,',bf candy is a mean sort of individual, yet some-students are doing so-daily. Several ' seif-he'p students who con duct numerous app'e and candy carts ' tfn the honor systcw basis, report from actual observation that they are beihg robbed-jUulyan4..tha rt; thefts are not due to negro -janitors or workmen, but Carolina- students to whom "the honor system has been explained as the most distinctive feature of the University. , . :; Recently a northern visitor in mak ing his first observation of the cam pus was attracted by tha apple carts and remarked to his guide: 'You fcl 'o'8 must have a splendid spirit and high sense of honor to run that sort of thing successfully. It would never go where I came from." He had never seen anything like it, and marvelled that students could be trusted so im plicitly where it was easy to play un fair. His praise could be taken as a pretty compliment if the system worked as perfectly as he supposed. A few despicable individuals with no self honor or any other sense of honor deliberately violate and tear down the reputation for honor commonly at tributed to the Carolina men. But for these few thieves, the honor apple cart system would function perfectly and be a profitable income to self help students, who, at present, re ceive very little remuneration for their pains If the student council can ferret out the guilty ones they should deal with them severely. - The man that will steal apples when he has been placed on his honor will cheat on an examination, rob his room mate,, and destroy the ideals of the University. These men are out of their atmo sphere in Chapel Hill, and should not be allowed to mix with respectable students TOTE READS A PAPER TO CLUB At North Carolina Club. J. F, White Reads Physical Edu cation Paper North Carolina has neglected the physical education of her school child ren, despite the fact that a law was passed three years ago requiring that physical education be taught in says James F. White in a paper be- all schools supported by public funds, fore the North Carolina Club this week. : The paper points out that while an appropriation of $15,000 has been made for physical education in this state the law passed three years ago has never been put into effect. There is a law now in effect providing for the physical examination of every pupil once in three years, and White's paper urged that this should be sup plemented by the enforcement of t physical education law. He pointed out some of the goals toward which a program of physica' education should strive. There is toe much stress placed on the develop ment of athletic teams to compete with those of other schools, was one of his statements. The only goal of the physical instructor seems to ba to put out a 'winning team.;.r He i3 no' concerned with the masses but hc; ones already in good physical i condi tion, and capable of making a good showipg -against the contestants .. of other schools. i.Thus the ; boys and girls, who need the. exercise do 'not get it. They stand on the side lines and watch their, team play but go back to class with the same headache and depressed feeling.while the team is overworked in most cases,, receiving too much exercise. . . ! J The following, were the recommen dations presented by the reader as a physical education program for . the state: ' .- 1. A careful health examination which should include; a. Medical examination. b. Mental examination. Physical examination. , 2. A healthful environment in home and school. ' . 3. Instruction in health problems. 4. Physical activitity. 6. School credit. In concluding his paper Mr. White mentioned some of the things which might be expected from a properly working system of physical education. There should be a better physical con dition of our youth, resulting in a more rapid progress in their studies. Our future citizens should be in a better condition to perform their du ties on account of possession a ro bust constitution. A great many di seases should be eliminated. The average life of man should be length ened. There should be fewer asylums for the feeble-minded and insane, fewer penal institutions, thus lessen ing the burden upon the state of sup porting these institutions. tt v tHE WILDERNESS ( BY J. OSLER B I LEY ,,' For several days after the . snow, we noticed several of our jsophomore friends "with smutty places...under the eyes', so to speak. . . - . . . . . It may be a personal idiosyncrasy, but every time we pass one of these of these honor fruit stands with a isn which reads, "Ploase pay, your manhood is at stake," or, "Please pay, this t box was thirty cents . short last night," we have a great temptation to walk up and bite a huge slab out of every apple in the box. It jags us, and we suppose anyone else, to bs forever reminded of pur honor. We :onfess no particularly kleptic inten tions, but continual scratching by little saws of suspicion will wear our hide through'some day, and an apple box will be short somewhat more than the proverbial thirty cents. .'.'..''- Apropos the foregoing, we have a clearly deformed opinion of the pro fessor who uses the same tactics We have in our day been handed quizzes and told to write out the ans wers in our room and hand them in Monday. We did not cheat on such exams. (Be a blanked cynic, now, and add "so the prof, could tell it!") - But we lost our usually banign temper on a recent quizz, and if we didn't cheat it was because we didn't get a chance, The professor spent fifteen minutes of the class period draping students at the mathematically greatest dis tances from one another, five more lecturing on the honor system, and the rest of the period walking up and down like a bloody hawk, to give us all delirium tremens. Furthermore, he insisted that the pledge be written out in full and signed with the full name, at the end of each paper. - In our private opinion, that sort of thing would bury the honor system in three weeks. If the professor has the opinion that all his class are knaves, surely, let's don't disappoint him. It might break his heart. We suggest the following as a suit able form for the pledge to suspicious professors : - 'I did not cheat on this exam. In spite of all your fears; I did not have the chance, you see, You took such strenuous cares." ..' - By the way, ye Monitors and Sat sllites of the Carolina Magazine, is knavery spelled with a "k," or an "x?" We heard a most startling opinion voiced recently. It is a rather cruel thing to publish, so disillusioning you know, but on this particular Saturday A. M. we are subject to such in acute attack of Colyumist's grouch hat we don't care a Whiz Bang! To Tet to our story: We had had the fond idea that to rehearse one of "these lere" osculatory parts on the Play- maker stage for three weeks must ba, ;o say the least, ' stimulating. We were gently joshing one of our for tunate friends recently when he gave ent to the following astounding rev- ilation. "Aw, crawl off of that: there's as much difference between a real kiss and "kissing ti Co-ed. on the .stage as there is between the kiss of a maiden and'a maiden aunt." ; . r - ' -Time and again, we have sworn sff paying any attention whatever to the Co-eds. But occasionally an over tone from oiir otherwise concentrated cerebrum swings within the aura of Russel Inn, and meets there at once such a muddle of humor and pathos that we can restrain ourselves no longer. We have it on good author ity, that one of "the loveliest daught ers of Carolina recently imbibed too high a quantity of exuberant spirits. Apparently, it went to ' her head. Shortly, she was sitting in raincoat, galoshes, and open umbrella, on the hall stand. She was waiting for a street car, with many mighty excla mations. The street car was slow, and the rain descended, but she would not give up the ship. After many weary hours, several husky damsels managed to convince her that her bed was a Pullman, and she consented to sink with profound tho' delicate snores into the conventional stupor. - In one of the plays now in prepa ration, there is a scene in which the lovely daughter of a horrid old papa parades across the stage in those sil ken unmentionables that we suspect are a part of the leminine wardrobe. There was a terrific competition for this part. The secret of its attraction came out when one of the ladies sent word to the casting committee to please let her have the part, because she "looks so nice in negligee."
