DAVIDSON, LENOIR WIN Carolina successfully wound up her Easter holiday baseball trip with 7-4 victory over Virginia in Char lottesville last Saturday before crowd of nearly 3,000 people. It was just another Old Dominion scalp added to the belt of Herman Bryson the University's expert on how to beat Virginia in baseball. Bryso also accounted for Trinity's second defeat of the season when on April 19th., he held the Methodists to three solitary hits and gave them their first bitter blanking, 1-0. While Carolina was victorious over her two biggest foes she fell by the wayside when she struck little David son and Lenior. The licking at the hands of the Presbyterians has been excused and charged up against over- confidence. The Tar Heels were fresh from the triumph over Trinity and failed to take the Gastonia game se riously. Ferebee, Moore, Poyner and Coltrane were all used in the box, but Davidson pounded away and won the game in the ninth by hanging up two markers and leaving the Uni versity on the small end of a 7-6 tale of woe. Bryson held the Lenior team to live hits, but Moose received better support from his infield and the seven bingles that he yielded failed to give Carolina a win. The Luth- rens had caught Trinity off guard earlier in the season and surprised the state by defeating her 2-1. The University team fought hard for the game but it was just another of those sad. sad stories that couldn't be help ed. From Hickory the team went to Hlacksburg, Va., and defeated V. P. I. on Thursday, 8-3. It was Virginia Tech's first game of the season and although their hurling ace, Crummett, -was sent to the mound, he was touch d for ten hits. In the game with Washington and Lee in Lexington, on Friday, ten hits were garnered ff the Generals' deliveryman and Carolina won 9-5. In the first of the three game se ries with the University of Virginia, the Cavaliers were outclassed and licked 7-4. John Coffee had a great day of it at the bat and connected for three singles and one triple out of five trips to the plate. Bryson was in great form and with the exception of the sixth inning, worked along -without difficulty. VIRGINIA DEAN LECTURES HERE WEDNESDAY NIGHT Wnrtlpv F. Rudd. dean of the school of pharmacy of the medical college of Virginia, will speak here on Wednesday evening, April 30, at 8:00 o'clock in Person Hall.

Hodges of the class of 19' was the speaker for chapel Mon day He made a short talk on indus trial relations in the textile industry in this State. He stated that there was truly ro mance in industry in spite of all state ments to the contrary. He saw more romance in the cotton industry than in any other branch of manufacturing. And this was especially true of the industry as it has grown up in the South and in North Carolina. He has been carrying on the industrial rela tions end of one of the largest cotton mill units in the State, the Marshall Field works at Spray. EASTER DANCES ARE EXTRA GOOD For Once Mother Nature Adds Her Sunshine to a Sche duled Occasion Tom Rowland The Easter dances have come and gone. They will compare well with the best dances ever given at the University, and will never be for gotten. Francis Craig's Orchestra of Nashville, Tennessee, played for all the dances, and without doubt they pleased the dancers with their perfect time, and their delightful melodies as Thanksgiving. Mother Nature, taking pity upon a campus roughened by much build ing and ill weather, smiled sweetly, and with her magic hand changed Chapel Hill into a veritable paradise full of budding flowers, singing birds, and verdant colorful scenery. Down in the Arboretum a thousand flow ers arbutus, lilacs, and violets, made a setting truly fitting for the para dise of a lover's dream; and so the stage was set by nature. Bynum gymnasium too redeemed it self. Dressed in draperies of pale orange it was truly beautimul. A giant Easter bell swung down on a pendulum in the center and - turned gently as it reflected many colored shadows which chased themselves around the floor of the Ball Room. This clever idea of a reflecting Easter bell belongs to Mr. Winder, the de corator. The girls attending the Easter dances will always remind the cam- us of sunshine after an April show er; they charmed everyone with their lovely manners, and it is unnecessary to say that there were not nearly so many here as attended the same dances last Easter, but after all, num bers do not make a dance. Mrs. Chase, Mrs. Pat Winston, and others among the chaperones were free to say that they were pretty and charming girls. The Annual Ball of the Junior Or ders, the Gorgon's Head, and The Gimghouls, was given jointly this Easter. It came Wednesday evening; the first dance, and because it was not at all crowded it was one of the best. Both orders had exceptionally pretty figures. Leading for the Gor gon's Head was Mr. Alfred Purring- ton, with Miss Elizabeth Whiteley Baker qf Raleigh Assisting Mr. Purrington were Mr. Will Whedbee, with Miss Mary Elizabeth White of Greenville, and Mr, Samuel Masters Blount with Mrs. Back Sellars, of Washington, N. C. Mr. Henry Abel Linegerger, had the honor of leading the Gimbhoul figure with his sister, Miss Martha Lineberger of Belmont. The as sistants were Mr. Edwin Gregory, honoring Miss Neale McKenzie, of Salisbury, and Mr. Frank Armstrong honoring Miss Snow Hendron ot Winston Salem. Thursday morning the Sophomore Order of Sheiks honored the Sopho more Uraer or ivnnaiaurs. air. Walter Woodson had the honor of leading with Miss Maisie Wills Penn of Danville, Va. Mr. Harold Line berger, who was assisting, honored his sister Miss Martha Line berger of Belmont. Mr. Russell Brash- well, also assisting, honored Miss Mary Burwell of Warrenton. Friday afternoon came the Annual Sophomore Hop. Mr. Jack Cobb, lead ing, honored Miss Nancy Carr of Dur ham. Mr. Wmslow Mclver, assisting, honored Miss Emily Moye of Green ville, and Mr. James Lide (Dopie) Coker also assisting, honored Miss Jane Gilmer of Charlotte. The sop homore figure was so well done that many of the chaperones pronounced it the best of all. Thursday afternoon the German Club gave the Prom.

State by De cisive Scores BREAK SEVERAL RECORDS (By the Rambler) The University of North Carolina Track team under the guidance of Coach Bob Fetzer has the best track, team that it has ever produced. Long standing college and state records re cently went to smash when the team went on its first extensive southern trip. Captain Abernethy established a record for the school when he flung the pruning hook 180 feet in the tri angular meet at Columbia, S. C. April 19th. Likewise Cristiye Fordham lost the discus at 126 feet two inches in the neighborhood of Athens Ga. the date of April 23. On the same day Parker establish ed a new record in the half mile, cov ering the 880 yards in one minute and 59 seconds, bettering the state half mile run by two seconds. Moore proved to be the high point man on the trip while the success of the team lay in the fact of hard work and splendid co-operation.

James, representing Caro lina at the annual Peace Oratorical Contest in Durham Friday night, took second place, and will be eligible to compete in the National Peace Oratorical Contest, to be held at Antioch College, Ohio, in May. James made a very impressive showing, the subject of his oration being "Christianity, the Basis for World Peace." T. A. Wright, repres enting Wake Forest, his subject, "The Vital League," took first prize. G. V. Allen. Trinity, subject, "Patriotism and Peace," took the third prize. Coontestants were present, also, from State College, Davidson, and Elon. Carolina's representative was noti fied of his entrance into the contest only a day or so beforehand. Due to the fact that D. R. Hodgin, who was selected to represent the University, was declared ineligible just before the contest took place. Hodgin won the contest his freshmen year at Caro lina, and consequently, could not compete. As part of the program when the judges were conferring, he gave the oration which took first place at the National, State, and Sopthern contests some years ago. C, April 29, 1924 CAROLINA TAKES NET TOURNAMENT Wins from V. P. I. Tennis Team Here Monday Afternoon With Ease Last Monday the Carolina tennis team staged a tournament with V. P. I. n iwhich Carolina lost only two matches one of singles and one of doubles. Soloman, Fuller, Whitaker and Blalock all won their matches, while Smith lost his. Fuller and Whitaker won their doubles but Rogers and Finch of V. P. I. defeated Soloman and Smith. All of the matches except one went to three sets. Probably the closest match was between Whitaker and his man. At one time the score was one all in sets and five four in games with V. P. I. loading and having the serve. However the Carolina player broke through his opponent's ser vice and finally won the match. Smith was sadly off his regular form and did not play up to wha't was expected of him. He seemed to be trying hard to win but seemed to lack control of his drive and seemed re luctant to use a chop stroke, even when it seemed the better and safer play. Of the whole team perhaps Soloman showed up to best advantage. He played a steady game throughout the whole tournament and was in top form. The match between Smith and Rogers was also close. The outcome was always in doubt since neither of the two teams were ever in the lead during the last set by a margin of more than one game, since it seemed that the two weakest services of the four players followed in succession. Finch's playing and that of Solo man's were the most effective in the doubles matches, while Smith's play ing was either poor or brilliant never steady. Smith's drove every thing in sight, both forehand and backhand, making some wonderful shots, but making too many errors to win. Take as a whole the team showed up very well and some good tennis was played, though the players all have great room for improvement especially the doubles teams. It must, however, be taken into consider ation that the tournament was held on the first day after a holiday and that all of the players were out of practice. Look at Coffey! Carolina Ab. R. II. O.

STUDENT KILLED DURING EASTER Lewis Jones, Member of Fresh man Class, Killed While Home for Easter Lewis Jones, a member of the fresh man class, was instantly killed in an auto wreck at Stone ville near his home early Easter Sunday morning. Young Jones went to his home in Leaksville Saturday to spend the Easter holidays there with his par ents. In the late evening he and two of his Leaksville friends went to Winston-Salem to attend the early morning Moravian Easter services and were on their way home when the wreck occured. It is said by parties in close prox imity to the wreck that the Essex coach in which they were riding was being driven at a fairly rapid rate of speed when it suddenly swerved from the road striking a large white oak stump, smashing the wood portione to splinters and twisting in every con ceivable shape metal portions of the car. Parts of the car and sections of the battery were found more than 75 yards from the scene of the torn up car. The first person arriving at the scene found young Jones with e sever ed jugular vein and dying while Krantz and Godfrey, the other two occupants of the car were unconscious. A nearby doctor was rushed to the scene. He found Jones dead and Krantz in a critical condition. Krantz was quickly carried to a hospital. At first, identification of the par ties could not be made. Emory Poole of Stone ville, who is a University student and in the same class with Jones, identified him. The body was moved to his home in Leaksville from which place the funeral was held Monday afternoon. Young Jones was the son of Mr. and Mrs. M. H. Jones of Leaksville. He was 18 years old and was taking courses leading to the B. S. Degree in Chemistry at the University. Dur ing his brief life at the University his scholastic record has been of a very commendable quality. In campus life he had made a large number of friends and was highly esteemed by those of his fellow students who knew him. THREE INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATES NEXT WEEK Carolina this year has the largest debating schedule in her history. Within the next two weeks five inter collegiate debates will take place. On May 2nd Carolina, Sewanee, and Tulane will debate in a triangle on the question: Resolved, That the Constitution of the United States should be so amended as to permit Congress to override a decision of the supreme court on the constitutionality of an act passed by Congress" Caro lina's affirmative represented by D. i. Downing and , Julian S. Allsbrook meets Sewanee's negative in Gerrad Hall at 8:30 P. M. While C. A. Peeler and G. C. Hampton, Jr. representing the negative will meet Tulane's affir mative at New Orleans. A return debate with George Washington University will be held. The query is " Resolved, That the United States adhere to the protocol establishing a permament court of international justice." Carolina's af firmative represented by W. T. Couch, L. T. Rogers, and J. M. Saunders will meet George Washington's negative CAROLINA MEETS ANCIENT RIVALS TWICE IN WEEK Virginia and Carolina Teans Lock Horns Friday and Saturday BIG GAME IS SATURDAY The University of Virginia will be played in Chapel Hill next Friday and in Greensboro on Saturday at Cone Park at 3:00 P. M. Those two con tests will complete the annual three game series between the two rival institutions, the first of the trio having been won by Carolina at Charlottesville on April 20 by a score of 7 to 4. The Cavaliers have hereto-fore furnished the opposition for the commencement games both here and there but this arrangement was changed this year at the request of Virginia. Negotiations are under way to have Georgia Tech. fill the schedule at the finals in June. Virginia dropped two of the three games last year to Carolina and has already lost the first one of this sea son. Coach "Greasy" Neale is de voting all his time towards preparing his team for the games this week end and will use all the baseball strat egy that he has acquired during his many seasons with the Cincinnatti Reds and Philadelphia Nationals. On the day before Virginia played Car olina at Charlottesville the Cavaliers' star pitcher hurled a one-hit game against the Quantico Marines and will either be sent to the box in the game at Chapel Hill or else saved until the game in Greensboro on Sat urday. It is entirely problematical as to who will pitch for the Tar Heels. Coach Bill may send Bryson to the mound on Friday or save him for the Greensboro game. The University Captain has been unusually success ful in pitching against the Virgin ians and has not as yet lost a game that he has started. Bill Ferebee fed the Old Dominion the deadly poison in the Gate City game last year and won it 2-1, and will pitch one of the games. KOCH PRESENTS BABY GREENE WITH A SPOON A few days ago Koch presented the first Playmaker baby with a silver spoon. The first Playmaker baby is the child of Mr. Paul Greene, famous Carolina Playwright, and Mrs. Eliza beth Lay Greene, who was a promi nent actress and playwright with the Playniakers a few years ago until Cupid Koch got busy. The annual meeting of the National Congress of Mothers and Parent Teacher Associations will be held dur ing the week of May 5, at St. Paul, Minn. The president of the organi zation, Mrs. Augustus Reeve, of Philadelphia, has arranged a program covering all phases of child welfare. in Gerrard Hall at 8:30 P. M. On May 9th the old triangle will be held between Carolina, Johns Hop kins, and Washington and Lee on the subject: Resolved, "That the con stitution be so amended as to prohibit further issue of tax exempt secur ities." Carolina's affirmative repre sented by J. F. Jones and E. L. Justus will meet Johns Hopkins' negative in Gerrard Hall at 8:30, while the Tar Heel negative represented by Malcolm M. Young, and J. W. Deyton meets Washington and Lee's affirma tive at Lexington, Va. The debating schedule has been considerably enlarged this year, and much interest has been taken on de bating. A good number have tried out in the prelimiaries held to select teams for the contest scheduled. G. C. Hampton, who has represented Carolina in debates for the past two years, is debating his last time as a collegiate debater. He finishes the law course here this year. Phi Beta Kappa initiates Wednesday night. Dr. Chase will lecture on "Science and Tradition." Gerrard Hall, 8:30 P. M.
