' Another burden added to the Tar
Heel reviewer who has come in for
'some caustic comment latelythe Ir
tra-Mural department is printing a
snappy sport sheet.
A hasty glance at the new publica
tion shows that it is afflicted with the
same malady peculiar to other local
publications whose names we will not
mention from a matter of pridepoor
printing.
If Luis Firpo, the South American
mauler, could have seen the way -ths
Sportgram spelled his sur-name he
would undoubtedly make a flying visit
to Chapel Hill and wreck Dean Brad
shaw's office and throw the Dean
and John Purser out of ths window
along with the rest of the furniture.
Quite a contrast was shown at the
Pic this week Jackie
Bull Montana.
Cooan am
With the band, orchestra, Ye Gods
chorus, and sundry other musical or
ganizations holding nightly workouts
in the rear of the Tar Heel office, and
the combined business forces of the
three publications in constant dispute
next door over money matters, and
the discordant hubbub caused by un
sympathetic carpenters who are
jimmying a hole through the wall in
New West, the Tar Heel scribes are
laboring under difficulties.
Now that warm weather has come.
the long range of victrolas along fra
ternity row have been moved to the
various front porches to boom the
latest in jazz across the campus. We
give the platinum shaving set to the
Phi Delta Thetas for owning the
machine of longest range.
Our weekly suggestion: that the
gym showers: be made to shoot
straight.
Among the names submitted for
the unbaptized college comic, the
following was no slouch of an idea,
The Gold Bug. (Note Charles Gold
is business manager.)
All is quiet on the campus, the Old
South bell rings, revolver shots, one
thousand wild whoops of ecstasy,
slamming of doors and opening of
windows, more yells, increasing b;d
!am, and Carolina's third straight
tournament victory is recorded.
All hail the Buccaneer, the new col-
lege comic! and lets hope its name
does not signify its future business
policy.
LONG LIVE THE BUCCA
NEER! If the Carolina Buccaneer, the new
college comic, con cash in on the widi
sprcad interest already manifested in
its career, it should develop into a
flourishing humorous magazine." In
the recent contest held for a name
eight hundred different names were
sent by five hundred people, which
a fair criterion that the student
body will receive the Buccaneer favor
ably when it makes its first appear
ance at Easter.
In selecting Buccaneer for the of-
fical name of the comic out of the
wide variety of thoughts and ideas
expressed, the committee has chosen
one that should easily catch the pop-
u!ar fancy. The name is flexible; it
suggests the days of old when pirates
infested the Carolina waterways, it
offers the art staff a rich fund of
ideas, and the editorial staff can draw
from it all manner of puns and rimes.
It has a Carolina flavor, appeals to
the imagination, and should enjoy the
prestige once belonging to the Tar
Baby.
With the name selected, the busi
ness and editorial staffs can push
their work rapidly. They already
have the hearty backing of the stu
dent body who are looking forward
to its initial appearance expectantly.
It seems that the University studsnts
are anxious to redeem the rank fail
ures of the Tar Baby and the Boll
Weevil, and show the public at large
that Carolina can produce a high
class comic, free from a crooked
tinge, that will grow steadily in worth
and popularity. Long live the Bucca-
LIBRARY SHOULD
CHANGE SCHEDULE
The University Library, which is
suffering from lack of space and
equipment due to the oversight of
the state when the funds for the last
building program were portioned out,
could lighten its load and at the
same time accomodate students and
faculty bx, revising the present sche
dule of hf-urs. By closing at ten
o'clock every night and staying open
for only a few hours Sunday after
noon, the Library is depriving stu
dents of the most opportune study
hours and is bringing added pressure
on the Library employees.
It is an accepted fact that the ma
jority of college men do the bulk of
their studying from ten o'clock on to
midnight and accordingly they are at
a disadvantage under the schedule
now in use. Sunday night is another
time utilized by many students for
a quite study period, and the nature
of their courses calls for work that
can best be done within the library
Two years ago when the University
was considerably smaller, the library
remained open until eleven every
night. Now with a big increase in
the student body and heavier demand
on me use or tne horary jrrow.ng
steadily, ths hours are inconsistently
shortened.
The only objection that can pos
sibly be raised is the extra work long
er hours will cause one or two stu
dent emp!oyees, but this is a small
item in comparison to the inconveni
ence the present schedule is bringing
on the many students who are com
pelted to use the library books con
tinually.

THE DESERT
BY
THE SHRIEK
In this the winter of our discontent
made glorious by five minute speech
es consisting of hideous and insult
ing personal abuse, we, Dum Dum,
have been asked to double this once
for the Shreik.
We would delight to seize this op
portunity to revile established author
ities and struggling radical organi
zations, but the truth is, we can
think of nothing to say about the
little tin warlordings or the bsarded
and lowly pinheads. Consequently,
we descend to jokes, advice, and for
the sake of argument, poetry, and de
pending on youth, beauty and sex"
appeal to put ths desert across.
A member of the X. Y. Z. fraternity
came down the other night to watch
I hi3 college basketball team fall before
the Carolina spaed kings. Some of
his Carolina brothers who were look
ing out for him discovered after the
game that, he had last been seen
starting for the Co-ed house with
Miss P. D. Q. Their northern brother
has quite a reputation as a necker;
so to save the honor of the fraternity,
the Carolina X. Y. Z's. made a wild
dash after him. They saw as they
puffed into the walk of Russel Inn
that they were too late. They raised
the prostrate form and bore it ten
derly to a drug store. He was soon
brought to, and the poor, simp only,
lacks two front teeth in memory of
his evening.
You will note in the above that
we have, for obvious reasons, called
the fraternity X. Y. Z. X. Y. Z. is
not the real name of the fraternity
If any Co-ed objects to the initials
P. D. Q., please consider them chang
ed to F. F. V. Co-ed3 seem to be
quite touchy about initials and they
are "raw material" to us.
The editor of the new comic made
a triple meaning break the other
night in speaking to men working
out for the new comic. "All you f el
lows," he said in concluding his talk,
"remember this. We want a name for.
the new comic and we want it bad.
We are naming names in the ad.
vice below but we are absolutely cer
tain that the editor will think that
this colyum is getting too personal
and insert something inoffensively
general like "the young woman in
question" or the "young gentleman
referred to."
As the inalienable right of a free
born American, and the sacred duty
of one writing for a paper due to ex
ert influence on the minds of some
two thousand persons in "the plastic
age,' we are inserting some sound ad
vice to those who are considering en
gaging in dramatics of any sort.
Ee very careful in choosing the
cart v,hich you are to play. Piek
something natural or your associates
ill ba worried both for and by you
Tor weeks after the show you are in
rs past and forgotten. A few sad ex
amples will no doubt bs edifying. A
certain young gentleman, who as
you probably know is leading a
double life under the title of "The
Shreik,' always takes his dramatic
roles to heart and was especially
absorbed in his last part as the
wronged and righteously indignant
minister in "Servants of God." The
character still clings to the young
gentleman referred to, and if one asks
him to repeat anything he has said,
he will very likely remark "Oh, Noth
ing!" in roaringly injured tones and
walk away with one end of his mouth
wrapped cynically around his ear
while the other end fiddles mourn
fully with his collar bone.
The young woman in question has
not yet dropped that sad "and I ain't
never, never, never, never, coming
back" smile with which she passed
out at the end of the grape juice
drinking, or was it egg eating, con
test in the play "Fixins." If the
above examples have not shown fully
the evils resulting from indiscreet
choice of dramatic parts, stand, I
pray you, on the P. 0. steps some
noon and observe how many males,
and females in the chorus of the new
musical comedy "Ye Gods," you can
recognize by a slightly pronounced
movement of the hips.
This poem sounds rather melo-
dramic, but the rhyme scheme is
hard no end. We announce now that
it is not so in order that the weaker
sex may not get too conceited.
Evil
As evil as the passions,
Which mar the face of man,
Are women's wanton fashions,
Whose art with careless plan
Wakes evils in the plan
Which makes up every man.
Oh! Subtle in the urges
Which raise a fiery hell
Of quick tumultuous surges,
They claim that all is well,
In beauty all is. well,
Though men are damned to hell.
