' Tar Heel basketball teams usually arise to the necessity of the situation. And it is upon this quality of the team that we base our prediction that they will bring back the bacon from the Atlanta tourney. The Wigue and Masque's production of their original musical comedy is one of the best things in dramatics we have seen' here. Even though there is a touch of the great problems of life included in the Carolina folk plays, yet a musical com edy of the sort presented ranks just as high in its particular field. The Di Society will put on a mins trel, says a news item. Ere soon the gathering of westerners will be hav ing pink teas after the fashion of the co-eds. The Di has certainly deport ed from its usual conservative dignity this year. It seems that there are more dogs on ihe campus now-a-days than ever before. They have usually gotten along together very welL : But now there comes tales pi strife among the canine tribes. As a matter of fact there have been several near wars of late. Those who sleep on fraternity row will bear witness to this fact. ' THE BASKETBALL TEAM Tomorrow night the Carolina bas ketball team plays its first game in the 1925 southern basketball tournament at Atlanta. This year will be the fourth that, the. Tar Heels have par ticipated in the tourney, which has only been held for the last four years. Two of the three years that the Uni versity team has entered the elimina tion contests, it has returned home bearing the championship of the tour nament. ' By virtue of the brand of basket ball that it has shown at these tour naments the University has been rec- ognized all over the nation as well as the South for the excellency of its basketball teams. And by virtue of this widespread publicity the Univer sity has gained considerable reputa tion for its other phases of collegiate excellency. The extent of this cannot , be computed, but it is a known fact and an accepted principle that athletic teams advertise an institution very greatly. . " ' The 1922 championship series will long be remembered by the upper classmen. The team received just about as much newspaper comment on its sportsmanship and clean playing as it . did on the actual fine points of the game itself. , The team became the idols of the Georgia city and whenever they played in the tournament large i crowds turned out to see the smooth working machine from the Tar Heel state. The whole campus will remem ber the comments . that were made about the fine display of sportsman ship and clean playing of last year. Piling this reputation upon the one which had already existed places upon this year's quint a great body of ex pectations from . the spectators and teams at the tournament. But we have no doubts but that the 1925 team will live up to the double reputation that Tar Heel basketball teams in At lanta have. We are convinced that Captain Cobb and his men can prove to the tournament that they possess both playing ability and sportsmanship qualities. The team has made an excellent rec ord this season in spite of the fact that it has lost its first game in the South since the 1923 tournament To lose two all-Southern players in one year is no little loss. Yet the Tar Heels under the coaching of Monk Mc Donald and the captainship of Jack Cobb have measured up to the situa tion and have delivered the goods. A word should be spoken of the management of the team. Manager London has given the students an ex cellent schedule of games and has worked hard to have these games played under the most favorable of circumstances The whole season has been a success and we look with eager anticipation tothe outcome of the At lanta tournament. ' But win or lose, the team has been worthy of the Uni versity's record in basketball and de serves just praise. ' ' . TRACK TEAM WILL CALL COACH "UNCLE" Cinder Path Squad to Have Monopoly On Coach Bob's New Name 'Ranson Calling for Men. The members of the track squad have decided to call Coach Bob Fetzer "Uncle Bob." This affectionate name originated during Coach Bob's regime at Woodber- ry Forest. Track men hope that this will strengthen the already close ties be tween their mentor and the squad. It has been the coach's ambition to place track on a -level with the other sports at Carolina and throughout this section of the South. Under his able tutelage the Tar Heel "cinder path" art ists brought home the bacon in all but one contest last season. , In the divisional conference meet the team finished second to Virginia. 1 The track team's record last year was second only to that of the basketball team, which came through the season un defeated. The loss of several of the best men of last year's squad, together with the much heavier schedule this spring, makes a repetition of the 1924 perform-? ance impossible unless increased efforts are put forth by the remaining members of the varsity and freshman teams, as well as a higher degree of active co-ope ration on the part of the student body. The following suggestions are put forth as. to how the track team can be helped: Report for practice; bring someone else out; boost track with other students. There are doubtless men in school who haven't come out that have the ability to become star performers. A special appeal is made by Captain Ranson to the student body and to each Carolina man to help the track team this year by be coming a candidate for a position on the team or by helping find those men who have the ability to sprint qr jump, and persuading them to respond to the call. Present Play At High School Friday ' The alumnae of the North ' Carolina College for Women who live in Chapel Hill will present "Nothing but the Truth" at the local high school building on Fri day evening," February 27, under the di rection of the Bureau of Community Drama of the University. r Miss Pearl Setzer has had active charge of the work and is most enthusiastic about the possibilities of a large and interesting cast and a humorous devel oped play. The play centers around about as many amusing incidents as were ever concentrated in one play. Every one who attends has in store one of the most enjoyable evenings spent here in many moons. , i Many Teams Are Eliminated in Race The second week of the hieh school basketball championship elimination ser ies' has passed, leaving many of the schools definitely out of the race.

Social Forces Replies to Queen City Minis- ters in Telegram. On answer to the attack upon the Uni versity and President H. W. Chase last week contained in a letter protesting against the two leading articles in the Journal of Social Forcee published here, Dr. H. W. Odum, Kenan professor of sociology and editor of the Journal, promptly sent a telegram to the protest ing ministers and the following letter to the leading state papers:;: "Although as editor of the Journal of Social Force I have to this date received no letter of any sort or protest, I have read in the papers the resolution of the Charlotte Presbyterian Ministers asso ciation later received by President Chase, and I have seen in the press other refer ences to the Journal of Social Forces. I have sent the following wire to the committee of the Charlotte Presbyterian Ministers association, composed of: " 'Rev. John L. Caldwell, "..'Rev. AlbertrSidney Johnson, " 'Rev. A. A. McGeachy, '"Rev. J..JW. Walker, " 'As editor of the Journal of Forces I am solely responsible for octal ubli- cation of all' articles.' President Chase did not see protested articles. The Jour nal does not assume responsibility for facts or opinions presented by its au thors. Barnes, of Smith college, book review editor, writing volume on History of Social Thought culled from thousands of references. I regret immeasurably that article has been misunderstood by those whom we love and esteem most. I protest method of attack on President Chase and sensational publicity. " 'I am sorry, very sorry, that any thing which the Journal has presented should prove so contrary to its whole purpose and method, through misunder standing and misinterpretation to those whom, as is well known, we esteem and love most. I am immeasurably sorry, too, of course, for any possible incon venience it might cause President Chase or the University constituency. ,1 am sorely troubled and perplexed, however, because of the policy of religious leaders which would take advanced history , of social thought, or history of geological strata, or the Einstein theory, or the study of cellular processes in organic life, or the world's great mystic religious po etry, or any other body of cumulative knowledge, and present this out of per spective to the great group of our folk. I cannot avoid the recurring impression that this is attempting td take away un necessarily, without opportunity for in terpretation and substitution, some of the bases of the faith of our great Chris tian folk, whose beliefs and tenets I share. These articles from Mr. Barnes and Mr. Bernard represent chapter from two volumes in the history of social thought its development, its trials nd failures, its positive forces, its negative forces, its constructive criticisms, and its destructive tragedies, its orthodoxy and its heresies. I do not, nor' does any one that I have ever heard of, agree with all the substance of the 671 volumes pub lished last year on religion alone, and yet I am hoping that someone will summarize these so that I mq.ysknow .something of their content. Is there no way through which we may read history the history of politics, of . economics, i of social thought, of religion, of nations that have come and gone, of poetic interpretation, in which summaries of. all that has been produced may be gathered in one place for the study analysis, criticism of man kind? "'Docs not all of this the thing of publicity, the attack on President Chase for . publications for whioh it is well known he is not responsible, the per plexity in which your group find itself and in which you place our whole con stituency make your own closing words appropriate also to my reply namely, "to fill with alarm and some degree of indignation every heart ' which vibrates with loving zeal for the best interests of our peope and our university?" -r .
