Mm YACKETY'YACKS ARE HERE YA CKETY-YA CKS ARE HERE VOLUME XXXIII y CHAPEL HILL, N. C, SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1925 ALL STATE TEAM IS SELECTED BY TAR HEEL SCRIBE Players From Every Team In State Have Been Considered. - TRIES TO BE UNBIASED Three Carolina Men Are Chosen- Dempster, of Duke, Is Made Captain of Mythical Nine. The 1925 season in North Carolina col legiate circles has produced some good players in all of the positions on the team and the selection of an all-state team, that will please all concerned, is a task that would try the wisdom of Solomon and the baseball knowledge of John McGraw; The college season has been successful in the amount of inter est that the public took in the sport, and the games have been drawing very good crowds. Wake Forest piled up a record to be proud of, winning the championship for the first time since the revival of ath letics at the Baptist institution. Caro lina started the season with a bang, but slumped as they struck the home stretch and finished In third place, one notch be hind the Tecbmen; who were runners- up for the champs.' Duke played some good ball at times, but at others they showed woefully weak. Dempster, Tur ner, and Johnson were the bright lights in the Methodist constellation. David son, Elon, Guilford and Lenoir were trailing the eastern schools. - Several All-State selections have ap peared in the state papers, picked by the various college mentors, who have shown an inclination to give their own team a monopoly on the honors. That is the one. fault with most all-star picks, . and one that has been avoided as far as possible in the "Tar Heel's outfit. Players from every team in the state have been considered, and the following have been chosen, after being measured in every phase of the game: Harvey Johnson, of Duke, has been outstanding as a receiver for the past three seasons, and he has had one of his best years this year.- Playing with weak team, he has always been a dan gerous hitter in the pinches, and few bases are pilfered when he is behind the bat He gets the call for catcher. - Stanton, of Corolina, playing his first year of varsity ball, has had a good season,' and Captain "Red" Lassiter, of State, has done good work; but Arm strong, the Baptist first-sftcker, is one of the few four hundred hitters in the state, and he handles the fielding assignment well enough to get the call for his posi tion! So mark down Armstrong for first base. - Second basemen have been more or less mediocre thW season and there is no outstanding plier in that position so Turner, Duke shortstop, is shifted to the middle station. . Turner is too good to (Continued on page four) BOY SCOUT CAMP TO BE HELD HERE Patrol Leaders Will Gather for First! Camp of Its Kind Ever Held. The first educational patrol leaders' camp in the history of the Boy Scout organization will be held in Chapel Hill June 18-19-20, according to an announce ment made public by Dr. H. D.

Tents will be pitched on Emerson field by the visiting scouts, and steps have been taken by University officials for their comfort and food while here.

Yackety-Yacks will not be issued to those who have not paid their University fees. ELABORATE PLANS FOR FINAL DANCES Many Affairs Fill Hours. Left-Over FLASHY CROWD OF GIRLS Officials Are PickedTwo House Par- - ties Given. As the date set. for -the final social events looms closer, great gaiety for all on the Hill appears more and more as sured. Smaller affairs, both formal and informal, are being planned by differ ent organizations on the campus to fill in the hours left open by the German club program. Girls are buying tick ets to Durham from many sections of the country, and a flashy crowd of fe males seems a sure factor to be counted on. . Reservations in the Jnn are being filed every day, and many of the private boarding houses are already booked to their full capacity. House parties are being given by the' Dekes and S. A. E.'s. About 25 girls will stay at each house. The officials of the dances want the fact stressed that every student is eligible to attend the Senior ball Tuesday night, and that it is just as cheap to do this and attend the rest of the dances on season tickets as to miss the first night, and pay separately for each dance. An announcement concerning season tickets will be placed in Patterson's drug store window Monday. " Officials for the dances are; Managers, Jack London (chief), Borden Hooks, Dick Thorpe, Hill Yarborough, Marion Davis, Ludlow Rogers, Vance Rollins, and Max Rothrock; Marshals, Emmett Underwood (chief), Red Barber, Don ald Koonce, John Crudup, Bill Suggs, Russell BraswelLand Jack Somers. ' GEOLOGY DEPARTMENT TAKE LONG FIELD TRIP To Visit Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina. The department of geology, with the co-operation of the extension bureau, is planning an extensive field course in ge ology to be given during the period of the second summer school. The party will travel by automobile through North Carolina, northwestern Georgia, eastern Tennessee, and southeastern Virginia. In this course most, of the more important mining centers and mineral industries will be visited, and the student will have unusual opportunities to become famil iar with structural, stratigraphic, and economic geology. The course will be under the personal supervision of Dr. W. F. Prouty, to whom students should make application for registration at an early date, as the number is limited and applications have already come in from faculty and stu dents from four institutions outside of this University. The total expense for the trip will be little less than $150 and the University gives two course credits for the work. CARD WELL IS ELECTED EDITOR OF BUCCANEER Guy Cardwell was unanimously elected editor of the Carolina - Buccaneer in chapel Monday. Charles W. Gold,1 Jr., was appointed business manager by the Publications Union Board. - ' Cardwell was nominated by the Buc caneer slaff, and as there were no other nominations from the floor, the chairman declared the nominations closed. Can didates were to be voted on in the' elec tion the following day, but as there was only one nomination, a motion was made to make the vote unanimous. The mo tion was carried by acclamation. . Editor-elect Cardwell has been man aging editor of the Buccaneer this year and he has been one of the hardest work ers and best writers on the staff.: The other officers of next year's Staff will be appointed by the editor and , business manager. There is room for several more men on the editorial, art, and business staffs. Since the Buccaneer has become a full-fledged publication of the Publica tions Union, the editor hopes to put out next year an even better comic than this year's monthly has beea ; REVIEWER THINKS PRESENTATION OF "THE RIVALS" GOOD Costumes, Scenery, and Light ing Effects in Forest Thea ter Uniformly Good. PRINCIPALS E X C ELLENT Performance Repeated Tonight Alum ni Will See Comedy In Playmaker Theater During Commencement. The Carolina Playmakers gave their second -studio production of the year in the Forest theatre last night. The play was Richard Brinsley Sheridan's famous old comedy, "The Rivals." The choice of this play for outdoor production was a very happy one, and the performance on the whole was very creditable, The play Itself is too well known to need comment. The' fact that it is still so popular after 150 years places it above criticism. The costumes, scenery and lighting ef fects were uniformly good. It is well known that the Forest theatre presents a good- deal of -a problem in the matter of lighting and stage effects. We rather regretted that a veil of darkness could not be drawn between the audience and the stage while the scenery was being shifted. Still, the stage crew met its problem in a very able way. The presentation of the play, while on the whole very good, was not quite all that we had hoped. Ed Copeland as Captain Jack was rather flat. He was a bit mechanical and he lacked that essen tial of the military man, dash. Louise Sawyer gave a sincere and delightful interpretation of Mrs. Malaprop, mak ing the most of her lines and situations. Margaret Jones, though she did not rise above a certain level, was very charming as Lydia Languish. . George Denny gave a ripe and excellent Sir Anthony. One of the high lights of the play was Theo dore Fitch as Sir Lucius. . He brought a gay whimsicality and lightness to the part that was altogether charming. Claudius Mintz was well cast as Bob Acres. His squeaking voice and ungainly gait were the height' of the ridiculous. The minor parts' were well played on the whole, good support being afforded me principals at pertinent points in the play. The worst fault of the production, so far as we can see, was that the actors were not too well acquainted with their lines. It is, of course, to be considered that this is a very difficult time to pro duce such a play, the end of the quarter being so near. As is customary with Playmaker pro ductions, the performance will be given again tonight. The comedy will also be ( Continued on page four) ALUMNI PROGRAM CLASS REUNIONS 'ourteen Classes Will Hold Regular Reunions. COMFORTABLE QUARTERS Special Invitation to Alumni to Bring Families.

SUCCESSFUL EASTER TRIP 'Rabbit" Bonner Ends Baseball Ca reer Here Last Part of Season Proves to Be Reverse. By L. N. Bran Baseball hopes at Carolina were not so high during tiie pre-season days, when the filling of the various positions was still in doubt. With Casey Morris, Monk McDonald and Herman Bryson on the list of retired veterans, and men to fill their vacant shoes to find the prospects for even a fifty-fifty team looked nil, but Coach Bill got out and shook together a bunch from the left overs of last year's team and the ris ing stars from the 1924 Tar Babies, that went through Virginia leaving a trail of devastated hopes in their wake that rivaled even the Sherman's famous march through Georgia. In the pre-Easter engagements the Tar Heels gave slight indication of what might be expected of them on their northern trip. Hampden-Sydney came to the "Hill" for the opener, and left with the small end of a 14 to 5 score. Ferebee, Coletrane and Hatley con tributed home runs during the mix-up. Guilford threatened to break the Tar Heel hopes-on April 6, when it took the Carolinians ten innings to win over the Quakers 5 to 4. Gibson hit for the cir cuit, and Stanton got a triple and a dou ble off "Shirt" Smith. The Navy game on Friday, April 10 was rained out in the third canto with the score standing at one-all, and the Hillians left -on their Easter week trip the next day. Maryland was met at Cone Park on Saturday, and Ferebee shut the Old Liners out while his team mates worked across two runs for a 2 to 0 win. , -' '' Easter Games. The annual Easter Monday game with DavUson was. played-at. the .. Salisbury league park, .and the Tar Heels won easily by the score of 8 to 3. Holshou ser and Coletrane divided the pitching. Buck Stanton chipped in a clean homer as one of the features. The Fetzerites revisited Cone Park on the next day to hand Guilford the second defeat of the year by the count of 3 and 2. Wednesday of holiday week found the Tar Heels at Blacksburg for their first encounter of the Virginia invasion. V. P. I. Gobblers took the Tar Heel dust in 6 to 2 win, Ferebee out-pitching (Continued on page three) FRESHMEN CLOSE XCELLENT SEASON Won Eleven of Fifteen Games Played Under Lowe BRILLIANT VIRGINIA TRIP Made 114 Runs Against 60 for Oppo nentsSeveral Players Picked -Early in March when the call was sent out for candidates for the Freshman baseball team, there were a large num ber , to report. ',! To observers it ap peared that there was very little promis ing material and the old-timers were very dubious as to the success that the team would meet with. Coach Runt Lowe took in hand the material that had and molded it into a machine that won 11 out of the 15 games played and who were runners-up for the state championship. In the first trame of the season, the Tar RnHie fihnwpri linpYrMfod fitrenffth bv defeating Mars Hill by the overwhelm- inir score of 11-3. The boys pounded the ball to all corners of the lot and Mackie made his debut on the hillock by twirl ing an excellent game. In the next two games the Little Tar Heels had little trouble in defeating Weaver College, and the Davidson Wild Kittens. However, they met their Waterloo when they met Coach . Caddell's Wake Forest t rosh team. Mackie pitched a creditable game but was given poor support by his team-mates. In the next encounter Coach Earl Holt's Oak Ridge Cadets were vanquished by the fighting Fresh man nine. The Duke Red Devils were the next victims, they going down in de feat after an 11-inning struggle. A few davs : later the Tar Babies journeyed over to Wake Forest with blood in their eyes and with a determination to defeat the Baptist Freshman team. They gave them the fight of their lives but due to infield errors were defeated by a margin of one run, the score being 7-6. The morale of the team was not weak ened by the Wake Forest reverse and the boys went home for the Easter holi- - (Continued on page three) SECOND ANNUAL AWARDS NIGHT HELD WITH LARGE AUDIENCE APPLAUDING MANY WINNERS OF COVETED HONORS TAR HEEL'S ALL-STATE II.

The University Glee Club has un dertaken for next year, a more elabo rate and wider program than the one used the last season.
