Our idea of the season's best joke is:, the movement to get the student body to exercise its right to vote. ..After seeing some of the make ups in the Di Minstrel-Revue we feel sure that the affair will be a laugh provok ing show. The whole thing hinges on the ques tion oi mechanical administration or individual and personal administration. Of course that part of the administra tive machinery dealing with registra' tion may be rushed and necessarily worried at the complexity of the va rious individual cases that come to its attention. Yet it is a breach of fair dealing and just procedure to enforce such rulings in eases which clearly do not deserve such treatment. 5S? SPORTOGRAMS By C. It. Joxas - : ' Exams have come and gone. In their wake comes the news that several men, counted upon for great things athletically this spring, failed to make the grade and have been declared ineligible. ' The words of caution from this column evidently fell upon alien ground. ' (Not even the' poem produced the desired re sult!' But possibly not entirely so, be cause several athletes did the Impossible a few made the honor roll. Some of the fellows can't get iover the idea that they will be passed simply be cause they're varsity men. ; Surely we have had illustration enough of the fal lacy of that supposition in the past sev eral years. Before a man is allowed to represent the University in any' intercollegiate con test he must have a passing grade oft the majority of his classroom work. That is a good rule, Another good rule would force every man to be physically fit before receiving a degree from the , University., Every day we are coming closer to the realiza tion that it is only by an all-round devel opment that men can go out in the world and stand the best chance of succeeding, Exercise of the mind alone, and at the expense of the body, will result in a warped and one-sided development. With the progress in sociology and psychology we are coming to realise that fact more acutely. This column is not alone in its; advo cacy of a physical test or some physical development and training as a prerequi site for graduation from the University of North Carolina. A number of the leading institutions in the country al ready have such a requirement.-- The monogram club had as" guests Wednesday night a number of "promis ing" Freshmen athletes. If any names Carolina's victory over West Vir-1 were overlooked from the various sauads ginia in debating Monday night is I it was a mistake. They were all urged quite a feather in our cap. I he West I to attend. - Virginia team - has had much experi ence, having debated -on -the subject -used ten times-on one trip. t, A call for candidates for next year's -, TAR HEEL repotorial board was an swered by some fifty men. (The term . , men is understood to include co-eds.) We feel like asking one of the athletic ; . t coaches how. they cut their squads. - Students - should go around behind ' Phillips Hall and see the unusual un- dertaking that is being 'carried on there. 'According to a head in the last -issue of The TAR HEEL the original old-well is now being dug up.- Surely - , it would be worth one's while to see - men dig up a well. - The spring quarter is always filled up with all sorts of lectures, elections, shows, etc, so that it is easy for stud ies to be left alone.- We believe that . it would be a good idea if the various -" profs-would take these- facts into con ?i sideration 'when) they go to make up ; assignments in their courses. MECHANICAL ADMINISTRATION The letter in . the last issue of The TAR HEEL signed C. W. H. brings to - '-the attention of the campus one of the most outlandish rulings that we have heard of in administration circles. The University has a ruling that a , man registering late is fined five dol r lars, and. placed on probation. We .have no kick to register against this , : particular ruling. It is a matter which .- rests wholly within, the spheres of the , administrative jurisdiction. But we do . feel that, an emphatic kick should be ,. raised when this rule is so strictly en . forced that a man sick in the Infirmary is placed on probation and fined be , cause he did not arise from his sick , bed and go through with the registra tion procedure. C. W. H. is, not the only man who has been made the victim of strict ap ; plication of the University ruling. We have talked to other men who were r quarantined in the infirmary on the day of registration and not allowed to leave their confinement. And yet in ; spite of the fact that they had an ex cuse from the University's infirmary y they were forced to abide by the rul - ing regarding late registration. " We are of the opinion that some at tention should be paid to the indi vidual case rather than try to classify all cases under one ruling. It seems ' that the personal touch is left entirely out of consideration is such dealings. And when the University and its ad- ministration succumbs to the mechani eal way of dealing with the mere stu dent it is time to kick. The purpose of the meeting was to create a better understanding of the athletic problem here at the University. It was held primarily to impress the fact upon the student body that every man in school should 'be a participant in some form of athletics. It is regrettable that out of a student body of some 2,000 the athletic burden is borne by so few... Someone suggested that, the reason behind it all is that we are becoming too lazy and effeminate, that the great majority of this genera tion cannot stand the gaff f , That is a bitter indictment. j Recently a Dean of one of our schools made the statement in public that some consideration should possibly be given a man who fails in his class work if he is accomplishing something in athletics.- Cer tainly he should be ranked far ahead of the "drug-store cowboy."' Recounting the deeds of a wonder team in '92' will not win football games for us next fall. Telling of "Big Bill" Folger's famous 52-yard run for a touchdown and victory over Virginia in 1916, for the first time in eleven years, will not beat her next Thanksgiving. Heralding the achievements of "Monk" and "Mule" of former days will not beat Old Buck, Wake, or The Farmer this spring. Past performances in the Atlan ta tournament will not bring the flag back here next year, . ADVISERS OF MEN MEET THIS MONTH College Deans Gather in Chapel : Hill. NATIONAL CONFERENCE Campus ,Will i Be AU Height Of Beauty. Its But those former glories should act as effective stimuli, as incentives, as a challenge to the younger generation to accomplish something more. What are we going to do about it? At Stanford university a flock of sheep have been kept on the campus for the last ten years.- Not only do they serve as efficient lawn trimmers, but at each semi-annual shearing they yield approxi mately $350 worth of wool. Sophomore women at Oregon Agricul tural College have adopted an . unique costume for class work and for general wear about the university. It is a scarf of organ brushed wool with three black stripes as their class insignia. All nominations for "Queen of the Carolina Carnival" must be entered by April 20th. Leave nominations with Jack London at the Y. M. C. A. office. t The '7th annual' conference of Deans and Advisers of Men will meet at the University of : North Carolina on April 23, 24 and 25. .The invitation was given to the conference at the University of Michigan last spring, and was unani mously , accepted, i . ..:;. : ' The conference, since it was organized in 1918, has met principally in the Mid dle West, where the office of the Dean of Men is more common than in any other section of ( the country.- Southern institutions-having the-office are U. N. C., N. C. S-, Ga. Tech., U. Tenn. and U. Tex. . There are some 30-odd members of the conference, scattered, all ; the way from the Pacific coast to 1 Penn State, and from Minnesota to Texas. Robert Rienow, Dean of Men at the University of Iowa, is president, and E. E. Nichol son, of the University of Minnesota, Is secretary. " Most of the members of the conference have already signified their intention of being present .at this meet ing this spring. The meetings are given over to the discussion of the problems the deans and advisers meet with in deal ing with students and student life and activities. J " The conference comes to Chapel Hill at the time when the campus is at. its best. They have been urgently invited by Dean Cloyd, of State College, to come to State College during their visit, and will probably take, as part of their pro gram, an automobile trip from Chapel Hill to Raleigh. " The Southern railway has worked out the itinerary for the various members of the conference. Many of them will come on the' Carolina Special, which comes from Cincinnati. , Many' members of the conference who have never been south of Cincinnati before will have this favor able opportunity to get their first glimpse of the South and North Carolina, and the University. : J The cross-word craze has not spared the West .
