FRESHMAN AGAIN MADE
VICTIM OF OLD TRICK
The Old Stunt of Giving An Examina
tion on the University Catalogue
Finds a Ready Pupil.
Still another victim has been added
to the ancient and honorable order of
cedar birds; another freshman has fallen
to the old and ancient ruse of the cata
logue exam. Again the freshie was ab
solutely sincere and honest in the quiz,
which was administered Monday night
by an upperclassmnn.
Time does not seem to break up the
continuity of the freshman taking exams
on the University catalogue. Again and
again are men rooked in on the old trick,
until it would seem that the ruse will
never die out on account of the fact that
it has been pulled before. But with
every exam comes some new slants into
the mind of the innocent cedar bird.
The last man to stand the exam de
fined a quadrangle as an area with four
. sides, and a triangle as an area with
three sides. He did not understand the
question as to why was Davie poplar.
Nor did he understand the question as
to how Emerson field. He did state fliat
the stadium was made up of several
grandstands to seat people who went to
see the games. '
The information was given that there
were three (leans' in the University;
namely, Dean Howell, Dean Kelly, and
Dr. Chase. Asked to give a short his
tory of the University, he recalled that
it was found in the eighteen hundreds
and that it now has 2300 students enrolled.
Some other very interesting dope was
gotten from the paper of the hoodooed
freshman.
The eastern district of Hi-Y clubs met
at Fayetteville last Friday, Saturday and
Sunday. The climax of Jhe meeting was
reached Saturday night when Professor
Meyer addressed 272 boys from 37 com
munities of the state at a banquet. Yells
and songs were given and eats served
by the high school girls. When the re
turns of the V. M. I.-Carolina game were
received all the boys rose and cheered
the team for severnl minutes.

Sponsoring the teaching of biology, or

Society as the most constructive and
outstanding piece of work in connec

science given the children a natural and
wholesome attitude toward bodily func
tions, but it has also taught them to ob
serve accurately, to , experiment care

from their own observations and experi

HOUDINI RANKS AS
LEADING MAGICIAN
Head of Magician Clubs in Both
United States and England;
. Edith Magazine.
Harry Houdini, who will appear in
Chapel Hill on November 21 under the
joint auspices of the Carolina Playmak-
ers and the Y. M. C. A., is one of the
most talked-of men in the whole world
today. Besides being a magician of su
perlative skill Houdini is an astute math
ematician and an excellent and prolific
author, having published some 12 books.
Houdini is editor of The M. U. M., the
national magazine of magicians, and is
a member of the Circumnaviators' club
and the Authors' league. This is Hou
dini's eighth consecutive year as presi
dent of the Society of American Magi
cians, and his tenth consecutive year as
presiding officer of the Magicians' Club
of England. So universal has Houdini's
fame become that the latest Funk and
Wagnall's dictionary publishes the word
"Houdinize, to get out of or escape."
Some day, after Houdini has fathomed
the mysteries of the Unknown and has
himself passed on, the world will be
astounded at the secrets of his library
and his flies. He has hundreds, even
thousands, of personal letters from nota
bles all over the world from presidents
and kings, from scientists, from great
intellectual leaders and from famous
preachers. These constitute J Houdini's
wealth: they are a thousand times more
to him than the earthly gains which he
has accumulated.
Frosh Win Meet
Varsity Race Tabooed
The freshman cross-country team de
feated the N. C. State cross-country
team here last Saturday by the score of
33 points to 20. Brinly of State fin
ished first and was followed by Elliott,
Pritchett and Gaskill of Carolina.
The varsity results were ruled out be
cause the freshmen interfered with the
runners. The track men returned from
their run just as the big stunt' staged
on Emerson field ended, and they were
swamped in the rush that the' froshjes
made for seats.
E. R. Rankin, of the extension divis
ion, will attend the district meeting of
the State Educational association at
Greenville on the 14th and 15th of this
month. Mr. Rankin will discuss the
athletic situation to the principals', di

As I was saying, the game Saturday
was won Friday night, in Memorial hall
and afterwards. Breathes there a man
on this campus whose soul Is so stuffed
with sawdust that he did not get into
the spirit, and become ready to admit
that the Carolina spirit still lives? "Fron
dy" Frondeberger himself was back with
us; we HAD. to win that game.
Pierce Matthews played his last game
on' Emerson field Saturday and played
it like a man. Our varsity squad proved
again that the old Tar Heel spirit of
fighting and fighting clean -Is alive,
and knows not the word defeat.
I have more pure natural admiration
for a varsity football player who unsel
fishly gives every ounce of his physical
strength in fighting1 for the athletic rec
ord and reputation of his school, than
for a score of half-baked, perhaps cyn
ical, would-be '.'intelligents," or for the
"polished gentlemen" which infest every
campus, or for the more obnoxious still
parasites who come here and in all their
stay here never contribute one thing to
the campus, its organizations, or iti bet
terment, but who, on the other hand,
take away, in that they infringe on ev
erything from the honor system on to

Nor is this all "gas.'' Think it over.

Bnreai of Vocational Information
114 Alumni Building
a
.The regular monthly meetings of the
vocational discussion groups were held
last week with T. A. Whitener, director
of the bureau of vocational Information,
presiding at all the meetings, . Different
groups met at 8:30, 9:30, 11:00, 12:00,
2:00 and 7:30 o'clock periods, which gave
everyone interested a chance to attend
one of these meetings; each group dis
cussed the same questions. Regular
meetings are held the first Tuesday in
each month for the purpose of discuss
ing subjects students are most interested
in along the line of vocational guidance.
Mr. Whitener gave a very interesting
ant Instructive talk on "Choosing a Pro
fession." He explained that the bureau
of vocational Information was not to
urge students to make a quick decision
as to choosing their life vocation, but
rather it was to give them an insight
into the different vocations and give in
formation that is needed in selecting a
profession. ' -
During his talk, Mr. Whitener gave
much valuable information that is need
ed before choosing a profession. Many
questions were asked and answered. The
discussional groups are open to all stu
dents and all Interested are invited..
A freshman stopped me unceremoni
ously the other day and struck me dead
with the query: "Why did you use a
split infinitive in your "colyum" this

" can miss my moods and femes,
Put all libel suits in expenses;
I can split infinitives,
And never care a tinker's damt"

Worth looking into
IT'S the most interesting study in the world.
What is? Why you, yourself.
Put yourself under the microscope. Examine
yourself most searchingly to find out just what
kind of work you have a natural aptitude for.
Don't leave your career to chance. Don't be
satisfied with any nonchalant observation of
what may seem to be your best field.
Upperclassmen who have applied this careful
self-study will tell you it helped them pick out
the "major" which fell in most closely with
their natural fitness. The result greater in
terest and greater profit through their whole
college course.
Graduates will tell you that the man who
turns the microscope on himself h huuincht in
his choice of a life-work. : .
It comes down to this -some patient analysis
now may be the means of putting you on the
right track for the rest of your life.
