V ' BAPTISTS MADE CLEAN SWEEP OF SECOND SERIES Tar Heels Have Brilliant Come back in the Ninth Inning., SCORE STOOD 3 TO 2 Ferebee Strikes Out Eight Hatley and Armstrong Drive Long Hits Coffey Makes Great Catch. Wake Forest made it a clean sweep of. the series for the second consecutive year when they won from the Tar Heels here Wednesday afternoon by the score of 3 to 2. In his second pitcher's duel in two games Bill Ferebee cauls' out second best to Simmons, lanky rightside flinger of ... ihe Baptists. ' Ferp bee pitched sensation ai ball, holding the visitors to five hits, but their hits came when they were needed; and the Wake county lads were alert. and took advantage of Carolina's two miscues when they came, Ferebee flashed his old-time form in the first liming when he fanned the first two men to face him anc forced Berry to ground out, third to first, but the Baptists came back in the second frame with blood irt their eyes. ""Armstrong, first up, poled out one of the longest hits ever seen- on Emerson field to the hedge in deep left and was roosting on third before Hatley could get the ball back to the infield. Simmons grounded out, but Hank Garrity signed for squeeze play on the next round, and Armstrong was nearly home before Hood bunted his infield hit down the line. Hood took second on an infield out and scored from the middle station whe.n Holt drove one over third that was too hot for Thomas to handle. The next inning saw a Tar Heel rally that netted one run. Gibson . walked and, after stealing second and going to third on a single by Sides, tallied on Thomas' one baser. The rally collapsed when Greason speared a drive off the bat of Johnson that looked good for a safety, and Sides was caught at second, Both pitchers settled down to business after that . and neither could get any thing that looked like a hit until Caro lina's half of the sixth, when Bonner opened with an infield single and. ad vanced to second and third on a pilfered base and an Infield out. , He wa left stranded on the third sack when the next three batters went out on a fly to right and two grounders to the pitch er's box, The Deacons tallied their final marker in the seventh when Hamrick went to first on a fielder's choice and raced home when Gibson booted Timberlake's hot one to right eld.- That ended their scor ing, but they threatened in the next in . ning after two were away. Ferebee struck out the first t'9 men, but Sim mons was safe on an error. Hood, next . C Continued on page four) LARGE AUDIENCE ATTENDS DEBATE Overwhelming Vote.in Favor of Affirmative. BIRTH CONTROL SUBJECT Carolina and N, C. State Have Inter esting Discussion. The question of birth control brought out, the largest crowd for any debate this year when- Carolina and State met Thursday evening in Gerrard hall in an Oxford Union debate. By an overwhelm ing vote, the audience declared that the affirmative had won and that dissemina tion of knowledge concerning birth con trol by contra-ceptive methods should be .legalized throughout the United States. The vote was standing and was about four to one. - - Y'Y The affirmative advocated placing the instruction regarding birth control In the hands of the medical profession, and thus putting reproductioa on .a scientific Jba sis. They maintained that the well-to-do classes are practicing birth-control now and that the lower classes should have the same right , The negative re taliated in declaring that there are no definite and harmless methods of birth control and that to allow distribution of such knowledge would only open tfie door to dirty, obscene literature. They main tained that even though there were an effective method of birth control it would not bejised by the lower, ignorant masses that really needed it." They said that once the step were taken W permit the dissemination knowledge, it could nev er be retraced. ' Y There was a scarcity of questions when "e debate was thrown into .open forum, nd after -a few vague ones that were not satisfactorily answered the vote was taken and showed that the affirmative, composed of L. T. Bledsoe (Carolina) and J. Alvln Wilson (State) had won. EXAMINATION SCHEDULE Tuesday, June 2, 9 a.m. All 12 o'clock classes except Comm. 26. 2:30 p.m. All 3 o'clock and all 4 o'clock classes.

IS OF IMMENSE SIZE Building Will Be Equipped With Best "Laboratories Lighted From Above. The new chemistry building, Venable Hall, which was begun last year is now complete except 'for a few finishing touches and will be used by the chem istry department during the first sum mer school session. The building, which was designed by Atwood and Nash, is a magnificent structure consisting of two stories and a large basement. The work on the building hag progressed very fast, considering the fact that construction was begun in a virgin forest and a long time had to be spent in clearing and grading before the actual work of build ing could be started. The new home of the chemistry de- partment is built in the shape of a square with the eastern side putting out at each end to form a slightly wider quadrangular front. The two main en trances are on the eastern side, although the building may be entered by doors on all four sides. The first and second sto ries are almost identical, consisting mostly of offices and class rooms. The laboratory rooms are in the basement. Upstairs there--is a large auditorium which. will seat several hundred people. The seats will be arranged in tiers, one row slightly above the other. There are fifteen of these tiers. The library is also on the second floor. On the northern and southern sides are stairways leading from the basement to the topt story. The most striking thing about the building is its immense size. It is by far the largest structure on the campus, al though it is only two stories high, it probably covers as much ground as the library and Bynum gymnasium com bined. Venable hall is situated on a hill, and thefloor at the cast end of the first story and at the western end of the , (Continued on page four) HI COMMENCEMENT COMES JUNE 5 JO 7 Mrs. Bickett to Deliver Gradua tion Exercises Olive the Baccalaureate Sermon". - The Chapel Hill High School will hold its commencement exercises between the University spring quarter examinations and commencement, June 5 to 7 inclu sive.

CHASE INVITES COOLIDGE HELP COMMEMORATE Dr. Chase Explains Purpose and Flans of Celebration to President. PROGRESS BEEN GREAT Hope to Have All Living Former Uni versity Presidents at Celebra tion Next October 12. On last Monday, May 18, President H, W. Chase personally extended an invita- tion to President Coolidge to attend the celebration of the semi-centennial of the reopening of the University,, to be held here on October 12, next. Dr Chase was introduced by Commissioner D. H. Blair, neither of the North Carolina senators being in Washington at this time.' In a 10-minute talk Dr. Chase laid before Mr. Coolidge the purpose of the celebration. Telling of the reopening of the University in the fall of 1875, Dr. Chase ' stated that the institution had been practically refounded then. That date in its history was regarded so im portant, and its progress within this last half century has been so' great, that it was the desire of the University itself, and thewhole state, to call the attention of the world to these facts. The Univer sity of North Carolina now ranks among the 26 leading universities of the coun try, and it, with the University of Vir ginia, are the only southern institutions that, are members of the Association of American Universities, which embraces such institutions as Yale and Harvard and the great western universities. Dr. Chase further stated that the University is president of that association and that he, as president of the University, will preside at the meeting of the association that will be held at New Haven next fall. Stating that he would take the invi tation under advisement, President Coo lidge asked Dr. Chase to write him a letter and set forth in more detail the purpose and the plans of the celebra tion. Although it is too early to state whether the President will attend the celebration, Dr. Chase is quite sanguine over his possible -attendance; Since the University was refounded in 1875, five presidents beside Dr. Chase have served the institution, but only three of them are living at present Dr. F. A. Alder man, of the University of Virginia; Dr. George Winston, now a resident of New York, and Dr. F. P. Venable, who is a member of the present University fac-ulty. It is hoped that all of the living former presidents will be present at the cele bration. The plan of the celebration is to have a number of nationally known speakers here and a great banquet of oratory and ideas. The University now outranks the University of Virginia, and it is desired to .bring the University to the eyes of the world and gain an inter national reputation. ''....

Watson's orches tra of Atlanta, an old favorite at Geor gia University and at Georgia Tech., has been procured to Yumish the music.

Recom mendations of the Highest , order have been received for the orchestra from known and reliable sources.

"Slats" is already well known in this section for his pre vious achievements on the campus in the art of decorating.

The Tar Heels will ring the curtain down on the 1925 baseball season Mon day afternoon when they meet the Duke tossers here in the final game of the three-game series with the West Durham outfit. The season has been very success ful, although a slump at the crucial point in the schedule robbed the ,Hillians of the state title after an auspicious start had given them the inside on the chase after the laurels. ... - : The Tar Heels Have won thirteen games this year and" lost seven, eleven of the first thirteen starts being chalked up on the right side of the ledges. With two more battles on the calendar they are making plans for a comeback finish. The battle with Duke here will be the rubber game of the series, Duke taking the first win while the teUermen emerged with the big end of the score in the second chapter. ; This game will be the finale for sev eral Of the best ball players in North Carolina collegiate ranks. John Demp ster, Duke's wrong side pitcher, will nlark "Finis" on his Career on the ama teur diamonds after hanging up a good record over the four years that he has worn the colors of the West .Durham school. "Rabbit" Bonner, one of the speediest pieces of baseball machinery ever seen on a Carolina field, will also slam out his 'last hit for the Tar Heel outfit For four years "Rabbit" has been winning ball games for Bill Fetxer and Carolina, but today he sings his "swan song". Bonner is the last mem ber of Carolina's 1922 "Wonder Team" that hung up a record for all Carolina teams to shoot at for all time. On the roster of this bunch were "Mule" Shir ley, "Lefty" Wilson, "Red" Johnson, "Monk" McDonald, Xoe McLean, Fred and Casey Morris, Manly Lewellyn, Her mon' Bryson, "Sweetie" Sweetman and "Rabbit" Bonner. They were the bunch that turned back Virginia to three straight shutouts and hung up such a great record in the north. The Tar Heels played a fast game against the Baptists and showed the fighting spirit that will not stay down. All of the pitching staff will be in trim for the Methodists. Carlyle Shepherd's TaYBaby track men topped off their 1925 season with a win over the All-Western conference teuirt of high school and prep school stars at Asheville n Wednesday afternoon by the.close score of 61 to 55. . The Carolina yearlings stepped to the front in the 440- yard dash and the broad jump, the ninth and tenth events of tlw program. They took the first two places in these two events. The Tar Babies, like their big brothers on the Tar Heel varsity, were strongest in .the track events, piling up their big gest scores in the runs. They scored 43 of their points in the races and only 19 in the weights and jumps. The feature of the day's events was the struggle be tween Newcombe, of Carolina, and Sid ney Mclver, Asheville School's star weight man, in the weights. Mclver was high point man in the meet with 20.1-2 pointsj-Tpiling-Tiptwo first places, tying for one first and finishing up' with two seconds. Andy Sowles, freshman dash man and hurdler, was second with 15 points. The meet was not decided until. the final event of the day, the half mile. El liott, Tar Baby captain, ' who had al ready won the mile run, stepped In and pulled the meet from the fire for his team by winning the half. Elliott forged to the front in the mile and was never head ed. At one time he had a third of a lap lead- on the nearest runner. lie was rushed into the half In hopes of an extra point and he-responded by taking the lead and holding it to the end, showing the same dogged determination that has characterized all"of his "races this year. The conference aggregation won all of the places in the pole vault, RosCJ the Carolina man, falling out at 9 feet 6 inches, Mclver, of Asheville School, and White, of Asheville High, fighting It out for first. Mclver won tjhe decision at 11 feet. Lyerly won the broad jump for the first year men with a hop of 20 feet even on his first attempt. Swain took second for Carolina when he leaped 19 feet 11 inches, only one inch behind Lyerly. Carolina placed two men in five events, Wilkins and Evans winning first and sec ond in the quarter, Cowlcs and Smith taking first and second in the 100-yard dash, arid first and third in the 220, New combe and Parker taking .second and third In the shot, and Lyerly and Swain leaping to first and second in the broad jump.

Have Strength to Reverse Score On.Techmen. - - STATE WON FIRST ENCOUNTER Bonner's Men Need to Win Last Two Games to Make Season a Success 'The Tar Heels go to Raleigh today to take another shot at the Wolfpack. The Techmen defeated the University batsmen in their first meeting of this season on Emerson Field by a' score of 7 to S, but the Tar Heels are leaving today with a determination lb reverse the decision In this gume. ' The Fetzerites showed that they still huve that old Carolina spirit when they pulled that ninth inning rally against Wake Forest on Wednesday afternoon, and they are carrying a full supply of that spirit to the Gapitol City with them. The team played good baseball against the Deacons, but the visitors played ball thut was worthy of State champions. ..." "Lefty" Hill was in rare form in the other game between the two stute Insti tutions and kept the Tar .Heels well In hand throughout the gume; so Coach Doak will probably send him back to the mound to face the Hilliuns In toduy's encounter. Hill also pitched a good game against the' Methodists last week, defeating John Dempster's crew in the last appearance of Duke's old stars on Hanes field by an overwhelming score. The Tar Heels cannot get the idea of losing any more games in their minds, and they are determined to end the sea son with victories in their other two but tles.
