CHI PHI REVIVE
ALPHA CHAPTER
Gamma Phi to be Installed Into
National Fraternity Next
Fall
Word was received here recently
by Gamma Phi, local fraternity pe
titioning Chi Phi national, that their
Petition to revive the old chapter of
the fraternity here has been favor
ably passed.. The local group has
been organized nearly two years, pe
titioning Chi Phi last fall.
The "Southern Order" of Chi. Phi
was founded at this University in
1858 by Thomas Capeheart and four
other undergraduates. The chapter
'njoyed a prosperous life until the
Civil War came on after which the
University was closed for a peviod of
ten years. - With the inactive period
of the University . the chapter died
nd was not revived.
The chapter, " when installed, will
le known as the Alpha Alpha of Chi
Phi, ' The old chapter became the
Alpha of .the fraternity at its founda
tion, but when it became inactive the
Virginia chapter assumed the powers
f the parent chapter.
Very interesting bits of Univer
I ity and fraternity, history are con
nected with, the old chapter of the
fraternity here. . . "
Installation dates of the local
Sfoup have not yet been definitely
although it will probably be next
; foil in order to allow the new mem
Ws to attend the 100th celebration
of the founding of Chi Phi in this
Dmitry.
Reporters Selected
For the Coming Year
".,UM!B" new men and one co-ed
n:t
reporter have been added to the staff
of the Tar Heel to take the places
left vacant by men who wi!l not be
witn the paper next year.
This number represents the suc
cessful candidates who went out for
places on the board some time ago.
A number of other men had to be
left' off the board because of the
limited number of places. - The board
for next year will be considerably
larger than this year's but more men
were needed to reorganize and equa
lize the beats of the campus.
Four men are retained as alter
nates. These men, if they show up,
may oust some of the present board
for next year.
From the 16 successful candidates,
11 are from the freshman class; 2 are
sophomores; 2 are juniors, while one
is a special student,
The new men are C. V. Riser, C.
W. Bazemore, R. B. Raney, E. R.
Patterson, F. P. Eller, W. L. Wilson,
J. T. Madry, James Van Ness, J.'M,
Sartin, G. E. Wilkerson, W. T, Pea
cock, W. T. Eightsell, B. C. Wilson,
Julian Busby and W. N. Cox. Miss
Lucy Lay will be the co-ed on the
board.
The four men retained as alter
nates are J. K. Davis, C. A. Moore,
E. S. Gilreath and E. B. Stone. .
Many Students Plan
to go to Blue Ridge
According to the latest report of
the Committee in charge of Blue
Ridge work, 44 men have signed up
for the trip to represent Carolina,
and there are some 60 others on the
list of possibilities from which the
committee is signing up so-veral new
members every duy. . All men who are
interested in going should get in
touch with some one of the commit
tee at once or call at the recruiting
office, at the Y. M. C. A., to com
plete the arrangements.
In the next issue of the Tar Heel
there will be a list given of the men
who are planning to go, and an ad
ditional list of the men 'who have the
trip under consideration.
. At this time last year, there were
only 25 men signed up for Blue Ridge,
and it seems from this that there will
be something like twice the number
of Carolinians there this time than
there were last year. An effort will
be made to register a complete vic
tory for Carolina as there are still
two championship pennants at large

The Carolina baseball team left
Thursday for Macon, Ga., where it
plays Mercer tomorrow in the first
of two games between the two insti

played in Macon Saturday. Alabama
will be met next on May 19 and 20
at Tuscaloosa and the trip will end
with two games with the University

"Monk" McDonald, second baseman;
habbit Bonner, catcher, and John
Coffey, outfielder.
Captain Bryson, who was unable
to leave with the team on account of
work required for his master's degree,
will leave here Sunday and meet the
team in Tuscaloosa in time for the
first game with Alabama. Other
pitchers making the trip are Ferebee,
Coltrane, Poyner and Moore.
-" "Monk' McDonald and Johnny Cof
fey were both unable to make the
trip on account of studies. Two like
ly substitutes for McDonald's posi
tion at second are Charlie Thomas,
star third baseman of the freshman
team last year, who has played sever
al games at third with the varsity,
and Fuquay, substitute on last year.'s
varsity.
Johnny Coffey's loss will be felt
most in the hitting department. His
hitting average so far this season is
above .400. Gibson, who has shown
up well in games this season, will
probably take his place in outfied.

TRINITY WINS BY
! RALLY IN NINTH
Bonner and Spikes Hit Homers;
Bonner's Hand Badly Hurt
For the third successive game Car
olina jumped off to a two run lead
in the first inning only to be nosed
out by a late spurt. For the second
time this two run lead has been due
to a home run. Both times McDon
ald has been on base. Yesterday he
was first man to face Trinity, and he
opened with a slashing triple. Be
fore the cheering had died away, Bon
ner smashed one of Dempster's south
paw offerings for a home run.
Both pitchers were hit freely. Car
olina getting eight hits and Trinity
seven. Of Trinity's seven hits Spikes,
their center fielder contributed four,
batting for an average of 1.000, by
getting two singles a homer and a
triple. McDonald was the big man at
the bat for Carolina. He got two
singles and a', triple. Although
touched for seven hits, Bryson kept
them scattered. In only one inning,
the ninth, did Trinity get more than
one hit. Besides pitching a nice
game, Bryson starred in the infield.
He made two put outs and six assists.
Bonner split his hand on a foul
ball in the sixth inning and was forc
ed to retire from the game. Morris
finished behind the bat, Jones going
to first.
Trinity tied things up in the fourth,
when Spikes hit a homer after Towe
had walked. , Neither 'side scored
again until the sixth when Dodderor
opened up for Carolina with a hit

to second base, reached first while

Campus Songsters
Start Serenading
The typical May weather of last
week brought forth many of the bud
ding campus. songsters and the stu
dious students had the sorrowful
sound of soulful singing added to the
already prevalent barking of dogs
and honking of autos. As a rule the
singing has been extremely distract
ing and most of the musical authori
ties on the Hill have been prone to
call it plain noise.
An unusual outbreak of music took
place Tuesday night, and the campus
was liberally sprinkled with various
sized quartetts. An effort was made
by the inhabitants of the second floor
of Battle dormitory to squelch a little
of the racket when a wandering band
of the troubadors passed by. The
singers were thoroughly drenched and
after a verbal contest, the scoff ed-at
musicians charged the students quart
ers. The sally resulted in attracting
quite a number of spectators who
stood outside the window and watched
the contest until it subsided, with no
damage done except to furniture.
