Carolina took its sixth consecutive de feat In 'as many years from Yale last Saturday wheiT the Bulldog carried off a 27 to 0 bone of victory. Although beaten, as predicted by all dbpesters,.the Tar Heels gave old Eli a bard fight and forced them to use their first string men during most of the game. K- r During all save the second quarter the Yale eleven carried the fight to the Tar Heels, but in this period ", the Carolina machine took the ball into Bulldog ter ritory and really outplayed their oppon ents. -The first .Yale touchdown came after seven minutesof .play when Spar row's fumble of a punt was recovered by the Bulldog center who ran 20 yards - for a touchdown.. They scored -again in this same period after a series of line plays and forward passes-- The other two touchdowns were scored one each in '' the third and fourth quarters and came as a result of sustained offensives, line . plunges bringing the first, and end runs the second. " ! - " v ; Yale was far superior to the Tar Heels in every department of the game. Caro jjna gained most of their ground by line plays, their end runs for the most part being smothered,, while they were ; unable to complete a single pass. On defense theBiue and White line showed . up strong. They held the heavy Yale backs well and averted a touchdown once by holding for downs on the five-yard -Jine. Carolina's backfield failed to come up to the Standard of the line on de fense, allowing-every attempted pass by ,, the northerners to be completed. George Sparrow luade tiie longest-' rb for the Tar Heels when he reeled off faking a kick ' Jeff Fordham, Dill, and Spratt Cobb all got . in the game in the backfield besides the starting line-up. ... Several passes were tried with Cobb doing the hurling, but all proved unsuc cessful, Yale's defense being too strong. In the line- Hogan, Whisnant, Farrell and Robinson were given a chance. Whis . nant relieved Chris Fordham and played , ail of the last half, making a good show ing. Jack Merritt got off several long boots, his punting being on a par with that offered by the Bulldog backs. , Mclver kicked off for Carolina. ; After : a few minutes of play' during which Yale had gained 20: yards they kicked to Carolina. Unable to gain, Sparrow kicked back. Yale returned the kick and Sparrow's fumble was recovered by the Bulldog center who ran 20 yards for a touchdown. Yale elected to kick and sent the ball to Devin.

The com petition among the candidates for tennis honors has set a tremendous precedent over that of any other year.

A member of the stu dent "Body, whose name does not appear startled all beholders one morning re cently when the cold, cruel light of day revealed that he had taken up his quar ters" on the fire escape in Vance dormitory.- ". " . In spite of his best efforts, however, his quarters appeared to lack many of the comorts of a house. A bed, a trunk and one feeble little electric light adorn ed this poor semblance of a home. " The light still burned on long after the. calm, peaceful Sabbath sun had risen, but the occupant was nowhere to be seen. The reason for this startling innova tion has not come to light, so far. Per haps it will remain one of the great mys teries; perhaps morewill be learned of the fate of this luckless freshman who was forced to leave his room in the dead of night and take refuge with the fowls of the air.

KOCH'S CLASS Famous Artist Talks to Stu dents Interested in Dramatics . and Tells Experiences. TAR HEEL SCRIBE ON JOB Miss Draper Declares That Her Work Makes High Demand on the In- , v telligence of the Audience. By Lccy F. Lay "My work makes the highest possi ble demand on the imagination of an audience seeking '. entertainment. The audience always reflects the credit on me but it is really their ability and con centration which makes them feel the characters which I portray." Miss Ruth Draper stood on the lit tle platform in the classroom in Murphy and spoke to the members of the play production class of dramatic -art and of hei-work for almost an hour."' Slim and straight dressed in a simple black tail ored suit and hat, lightened by a blouse of vivid orange, she talked freely and enthusiastically about her work. She - j - j Insisted that the greatest acting comes from deep "thinking with the mind, the heart and the emotions. . "I never mimic j I am a character that nam portraying. Sometimes I feel the person so . deeply that I have to jerk myself out of.-the characterization before r go too-far. My "sketches have rarely been taken from real incidents or from suggestions. They have come out of my mind, the result of indirect observa tion. ; Out of 30 or 35 sketches, only four or five can be called the results of direct observation. A visit to Ellis Is land suggested the Scotch immigrant, and the Irish sketch which I use was suggested by a peasant I once saw while bicycling through Ireland several years ago. Sometimes I have written things and then put them away for years be cause I jdid not feel that the actor had been born." . - ' - Miss Draper spoke of her feeling that words hindered the complete and abso lutely free expression of the emotions. She invented for herself a kind of lan guage which means absolutely nothing "It's just a series of sounds," she ex plained, "but those sounds one minute express -my anger, then my pity or my sorrow. The infinite power of the sound of the human voice, regardless of the words, the Intellectual meaningran be utUized here." The sqund language help to make the voice flexible and to enable one t? pour out feeling without having to think of. the words and the sense of the-thought. Slipping off her coat and quickly roll inir it into a bundle, she moved to the center of the little platform and in a second's time an Italian peasant mother scolded the children playing around her skirts.

THE BUCCANEER COMES OUT IN VERDANT COLOR Initial Number of Carolina's College Comic Launched' Upon Campus. ISSUE IS THE BEST YET Work of the Art Staff is a Very Strik ing Feature of the Fresh " man Number. By The Crossroads "Tke Tar Baby got stuck and Th Boll Weevil was exterminated; but the Buccaneer is not going to walk the plank.". Business Manager Gold Is re sponsible for this optimism j whether or not he Is right remains to be seen. With the Verdant number, Carolina's pirate crew has launched its craft for its first long voyage. The trial cruise of last year proved successful to a grati fying extent. This year the Buccaneer will wander alone on the high-seas of humor with the hope of later joining the fleet and swapping the Jolly Roger for the . standard of the Publications Union. . ' The first number this vear strikes lis as being in every way the best Bucca neer which has yet appeared. It is only reasonable to assume that improvement will take place throughout' the year) if the assumption proves correct, Carolina will shortly have a comic which will do her due credit. ' ' " The" cover is the first thing that calls for attention; ergo, the cover Is excep tionally good. It Is appropriate and possesses life without feminine anatomy rare achievement. 1 . v The content is varied and original ; there is a pleasing lack of the stuff so often prominent In college comics as merely filling.

Aside from the usual cartoons, there is an especially!, good double spread" and a full page portrait study. It is a cer tain thing that the cuts determine the quality of a college comic, and if the Buccaneer maintains the standard . of art work evident in the first number It will fll whflf flAB bppn in hlnff vnld at Carolina. . ' - . All of the work is from University students; no exchanges are used. This, too, is deserving of compliment, and Is a rather, notable departure from our former humorous publications. On the whole the Verdant Number creates favorable impression and we know that we voice the sentiment of a long-suffer ing study body in hoping that it will continue to do so.
