Saturday; December 6,-1984 PARAGRAPHICS High school event here thif after- v The above announcement is another way of saying that we have with us rain and mud. Now that the war of the Greeks has been brought to a close, the drug stores, the jitneys and the Pick will miss supplying the necessary ammuni tion. It was a hard fought affair and sev eral broadsides were used very effeC' tively near the end of the battle. Let ters of marque and reprisal had evi dently been issued by a number of the . Grecian forces. The Play makers performed credit ably to two audiences here last night and the night before. The program presented proved very interesting, es pecially the 'play of the Scuff letown outlaws. This is one of the best plays we have seen produced by the Play' makers. It is especially symbolic of the spirit of the task the Play makers ' are trying to accomplish. It is the collection and moulding of state folK-lore into tangible forms that makes the work of the Playmakers ap peal to a good many people here and out in the state. It seems to us that the two most important things that the local players are doing out in the state besides the creation of a body of literary appreciation is the collec tion of local bits of history such as the Lowrie play and the presentation of the social, . economic and religious problems of the state. The University's debating program of the year opens Monday night with an open forum debate with N. C. State here. This is the first time that the Oxford plan of debate has been used locally, and many are looking forward to the contest.' The Debating Council has announced some important con tests for the coming quarter and the spring. A large number of men are expected to try out in the preliminaries and the number of contests will afford , places for quite a few men. In order to demonstrate its interest in the high schools of the state the Publications Union has donated nearly two hundred Pios of last year's Yackcty Yack to be sent to the high schools and preparatory schools in the state. This is one of a number of ways in which the University may become known more by the high school and , preparatory students who plan to at tend college. The Alumni Association is paying for the wrapping and mail ing expenses of the annuals. . HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS "Today will mark the close of the race for the state high school chanx pionship ii football. The teams win nine the eastern and western chain pionships of the state will meet on the gridiron here tins, alternoon. " Some, very interesting and notable situations stand- out in the season's 'progress. Charges ranging from small breaches of the conservatively critical attitude toward athletics in general all the way to violent denun ciations of nil the high school teams of the state have been made. Charges of rank professionalism have been levied against some of the school elevens in the state. Charges, best and smoothest working high such as they are, have to be well grounded and adequately proved be fore action ould be taken by the central committee on athletics in the extension department. Rumor and gossip are mediums through which much prejudice and hatred may be carried. And preju dice arid hatred frequently grow out of the bitter rivalry which exists be' tween many neighboring communi' ties in the state. Football serves as an excellent outlet for this commun- tv rivalry. Any number of towns throughout the state could be cited in which is fostered an intense and fierce hatred for a neighboring town. There is one specific case in this sea son s games in high school circles where the bitterness was carried even to the point of a fistic fray between citizens,' or rather those who should more properly be called anything but citizens, of two rival towns. As to charges of playing ineligi bles and ringers by several high schools, there has been nothing defi nitely proven about those schools which entered the race for the state title. It has been charged that sev eral schools were playing men who had previously played their full time in other schools both in this state and in distant states. One charge reached the central committee of the state high school athletic association only the first of this week. In this case the Charalotte high school preferred charges against the Shelby high school for playing a man who had passed the age of twenty-one, the limit of age eligibility in high school circles. After due consideration of the facts in the case as presented by the contending parties was made by the committee, no -action was taken to rule out the champions of the west. Many people in the school that brought up the charges are doubtless yet unconvinced of the fairness . of the decision in the matter. Ihe mere fact that charges are made which are so well supported that the school of ficials of one of the most important high schools in the state felt that their school has been made a victim of a team playing ineligible players clearly demonstrates to our .satisfac tion that something is rotten in the state. The director of the .high school championship series here at the Uni versity can- in no way be blamed for the existing conditions. : He ac cepts the registration blanks of the players at their face value and has no doubt to cause him to question their soundness. The officials in the local schools are in a position which cannot be assailed without demon strated proof, for the blame may rest on enthusiasts in . the town or ' the players themselves. It is just a rot ten state of affairs that exists and one which it is hard to place a finger on. - The central committee in their meeting on the Charlotte-Shelby con troversy contemplated a ruling which will not allow non-residents of a com munity in which a school is located to participate in athletic contests of that school falling under the super vision of the high school, association. 1 ins proposal will be forwarded to the members of the association for their vote. With the passage of this ruling many of the evils of the pres ent state of affairs should cease to exist. We toss in the towel when it com'es to a solution of our athletic situation, both in the colleges and universities as well as the high schools. Professor Meyer Speaks in Greensbore Professor Harold D. Meyer spoke to an assembly of scoutmasters in Greens boro last Monday night. He is the edu cational director for this organization in the western part of the state. Scout masters were present from numerous towns and a large number of scout troops was represented. . This meeting was one in a series of such meetings which has been held in a number of the principal cities of this part of the state. The meetings consti tute a school in which problems of the scout movement are discussed and stud' led. A great deal of enthusiasm has been manifested In this work and it is hoped that a sufficient number of or ganizations can be organized in the east ern part of the state to warrant holding such a school there. It is proposed that a patrol leader's camp be held here at the University next summer. This will probably make a very welcome addition to the Summer School, George S. Lawrence, professor of so ciology, has moved into one of the apart merits of T. C. Atwood's house in Ginr ghoulville. The house being erected by W. L. Tan kersley on North street for the medical fraternity is ready for the roof timbers.

"Towering Masses" T.JERE the new architecture expresses itself in great vig . orous masses which climb upward into the sky with a pyramidal profile gigantic, irregular, arresting. An earlier, conventional building on the near corner is overshadowed, engulfed in towering masses of the newer building which are prophetic of an architecture of the future which is vividly stimulating to the imagination. Certainly modern invention modern engineering skill and organization, will prove more than equal to the de mands of the architecture of the future. ; OTIS ELEVATOR COMPANY Offices In all Principal Cities of the Wotld Advertise in C.
