Tuetday, November 10, 1925 WE BEG TO DIFFER The Raleigh Times, picking up the loose ends of, alumni discussions on the Oxford-Carolina debate, ap pears very dissatisfied with what happened Thursday night and finds no comfort whatever in the showing made by the Carolina men. 4 We quote in part; "University alumni who on their way to the teachers' meeting here stopped over Thursday night at Chapel Hill to at tend the Carolina Oxford debate are frankly dissatisfied with the showing made by North Carolina's repre sentatives. ,-;.'. "They admit straightway that the British university style of public dis cussion differs from ours in that it is a discussion rather than a debate ; but they believe that even though our University was host to Oxford, the Carolina speakers should have at some point in the proceedings made an effort to present the matter according to thjeir lown best tra ditions." , We beg to differ. The Oxford team was brought to Chapel Hill primarily to furnish a first hand glimpse at the English method' of debating. And Chapel Hill got that glimpse and a few other glimpses besides. - ' . ' Had the two teams lined up, in stitution against institution, ; the slaughter would have been so thor ough that the Britishers might have felt a little avenged for some of the insults offered the Union Jack in days gone by.- The visitors would have murdered the local debaters in so far as the debating goes. . And there's a reason. The Oxford team has dabbled in the World Court issue so long that they could almost be called professionals if compared to the University team. The debate was. not held in order to add another scalp to Carolina's belt. . The chief attraction of the affair lay in the presence of the vis itors, and their being here was the feature that attracted the capacity house. If the alumni and out-of- town visitors expected a great show ing by the North Carolina team they were certainly given a big dose' of disappointment. But we have seen the real working of a debating system superior to our own, and the University . does , not begrudge the affair. It may feel riled that the Englishmen so com: pletely trampled the local team and that the University of Oxford pro duces students superior to those pro duced at the University of North Carolina. But that is neither here nor there. They .have come ojid we have seen something better. Now we must seek to approach that super ior level, aridWhould not adorn sack cloth and ashes in chagrin. THE FAIR WEEht GAME There will be no annual Fair Wee)i Classic betwixt the ' University of North Carolina and the State College of Agriculture and Engineering dur ing the year of 1926 unless State College comes vdown from its high horse in mighty short order. And the absence of a game next year might be the beginning of a long series of absences. 1he passing of the Fair Week game is to be regretted but the University is clearly in the right . and should, and probably ' will, stand pat. The press accounts "have been liostile to ward the locaL institution. This hostility is misdirected. ' ' The University of Nroth Carolina has done every tiling " possible' to patch up the trouble. . State College has made the trouble and has done nothing to smooth it over. Carolina hki offered to place the game at a date! nine days later than the Thurs day of Fair Week. That's the best she could do. State fixes a Nov ember date and, Carolina's schedule and Thanksgiving gaine notwith standing, refuses to budge. :. The Carolina-State game is the most important game on the schedule of State College. But it Js not the most important game on the Univer sity's seasonal offering. The Ral eigh school should take the latter fact, not the first, into premiere con sideration. State reminds us of an old woman. She demands a change in date and doesn't give a darn about the University's end of the bargain. And if Carolina doesn't gallantly throw everything to the wind; bow gracefully, and give way and act exactly as it suits the pleasure of the West Raleigh scshool, it is a ty rant and is guilty of handing out a raw deal. .. '" '' ' "' ' , To use the words of a member of the University Athletic Committee, it's like a man coming up to another and asking for a loan of $400.00. Says the man approdched, haven't got but $250.00 but will gladly lend you that." Whereupon the would be borrower takes offense because he can't borrow the whole business and goes off without even appreciating the help generously offered. j We believe that State attempted to put across a bluff, and the Uni versity severely called it. - State col lege admits that the Carolina game is its biggest money-maker. , Perhaps she may be able to sign up another school that will be a worthy success or. But we doubt it and State's pocket-book is probably headed for bankruptcy, if the Fair Week game lias been its saviour in the past. I As for Carolina, it is to be hoped that a bigger Southern school will be booked. Carolina claims to be among the big boys. ' Let it play with Georgia, Alabama or Vander bilt, and see if the. vaunted greatness holds water., And if State wants a berth on the University schedule in the future, let her ask for it and let Carolina make way for her by drop ping one of the more unimportant games I ' Religious workers change ! date of meeting one week -' The Council of Religious Workers will rjot meet tonight as was schedule--but Will meet instead next Tuesday night at 0 o'clock in the Methodist Hut. . The meeting is; changed for this one time only and will be held on the usual day of each month in the future unless some thing comes up to prevent it. It is the custom of the council to meet the first Tuesday in each month at one of the Chapel Hill churches and to be served with a supper by members of that church. Representatives from the various religious organizations, churches and. University "Y" make up the mem bership. Mr. Comer is president of the organization. It is the purpose of the council to further religious work in the town and on the campus.

Snell, the Extension Di vision of the University is offering a number of new correspondence courses by members of. the faculty that will be available at once to the people of the state.
