DEAN HIBBARD SETS A
GOOD EXAMPLE.
Besides writing "Telfair, J r." and
acting as Dean of the College of
Liberal Arts, Dean Hjbbard is still
an active member of the teaching
staff. He is a very busy man indeed.
But vMr. Ilibbard, a few weeks
ago, told his class where he lived
and made it clear that he wanted his
students to call on him. For fear
that an invitation would avail him
naught, he strengthened it and dared
them to come. We know that at least
a few called.
We hope that this is a bappy be
ginning of closer connections between
the , students and professors. The
present relationship between the two
bodies is perfectly harmonious inso
far as we know. A few of the pro
fessors, Dr. Williams, for instance,
have always maintained close relat
ionship with their students. But
Dean Hibbard, we hope, is stirring
up afresh the coals of a custom that
is all but dead. :
Of course we don't blame the fac
ulty members for not wanting to be
pestered to death by indiscriminate
and purposeless visits. But a much
closer relationship between the fac
ulty and students that that which
now exists is highly desirable.
STATE ORGANISTS TO
MEET HERE THIS WEEK
North Carolina Chapter of American
Guild Organists Will Meet in Chap
el Hill Friday and Saturday.
i
The North Carolina chapter of Ameri
can Guild Organists will hold its an
nual convention here Friday and Sat
urday of this week. ... V
This meeting, which will, be held in
P. J. Weaver's office, is to be under the
leadership of Dean Francis F. Womack,
of the Reidsviile chapter. Friday af
ternoon the officials will hold a business
meeting, which will be followed in the
evening by an informal dinner at, the
Carolina Inn. After this supper the
delegates, as guests of the University
Music Department, will attend a con
cert to be given in Memorial Hall by
the Famous Cherniavsky trio. Satur
day morning will bring another meet
ing followed by an organ concert at
the Episcopal Church by Charles G.
VardeH, head of piano instruction at
Salem College. - At this recital , the
University Glee : Club will render a
few selections. ,
The- purpose of the Guild, which was
organized in this state four years ago,
is to promote co-operation between the
different agencies connected with church
service. The organization : owes its
formation to Paul John Weaver of the
University Department. Having done
much work ' with the Missouri chapter
of the Guild, of which chapter he was
an officer, Mr. Weaver was enabled to
give the North Carolina chapter the
benefit of his experience with the na
tional organization. This previous con
tact was of great value in the founda
tion of the state guild.
The North Carolina guild is composed
of many of the most prominent organ
ists in the state.' Membership is re
stricted to only those who' pass an ex
amination given annually by the Univer
sity of New York. From ' it two dif
ferent types of degrees are won by
successful candidates. These degrees
are: Associated American Guild of Or
ganists (A. A. G. O.) equivalent to a
bachelor's degree in music, and second
ly. Fellow American Guild of Organists
(F. A., G. O.) equivalent to a- doctor's
degree in music. '
The University is signally honored in
the location of the convention here.
Henderson Contributes
' To Relativity Theory
Dr. Archibald Henderson has recent
ly published a new contribution to Rela
tivity in the form of a monograph. This
embodies researches made abroad dur
ing his travels on the Keenan Research
Foundation of the University. '
"Dr. Henderson had conferences with
Sir Ernest Rutherford, Sir J. J. Thomas,
and Professor Albert Einstein on the
new theory of the atom while abroad
and made visits to the great universities
of Europe and talked with many of the
most learned men of the present day.
Dr. Henderson is known thoughout
the world as a mathematician and has
won many honors at home and abroad.
His latest work is a valuable addition
to the many works that he has accom
plished. "
While inspecting the Harvard campus
visiting students from Germany noticed
a long line of parked flivvers. Great was
their, astonishment when they learned
that the cars belonged to students.. " ''
"Who In Germany would think of such
a thing?", exclaimed one. "Never would
a student dare to come in a car while
his professor walked. Ach! But in such
a wealthy country, such a wealthy coun
try" .
I OPEN FORUM
Wants Cam and Al to Run
The Editor:
For several weeks there has been con
siderable agitation, about the campus in
behalf of the political aspirations of Al
Smith. It is thought by many of the
students that he is the most available
man In the democratic party for the
presidential nomination : in 1928, and
many have been trying to find a solution
to the problem which the South presents
in case he should get the nomination.
It is argued that the New York man
could not carry the South because of his
attitude toward prohibition and because
he Is a Roman Catholic, A few of the
students have discussed this from every
angle and, without presuming to possess
any superior wisdom, we believe that we
have found a solution of the problem.
In the first place his dampness would
not be a great handicap. ' More and more
we are coming to the conclusion all over
the country that something must be done
about the Volstead Act. It has succeed
ed in doing but two things: it has made
"licker" higher and meaner. It can- be
had as easily as ever, but it costs more
and makes the drunk come quicker. The,
only people who believe that the law can
be enforced are a few belated judges
and Anti-Saloon League employees who
think that it is being enforced now. They
are fooled, deceived and benighted. Al
Smith stands for a modification of the
law and that attitude wins the respect
of thinking people everywhere." He wants
no return to 'the open saloon, but he
would stop official highwaymen from
shooting up cars and breaking in houses
because they think they can smell rum.
He would stop courts from making
good citizens into convicts because for
sooth . they , have taken a drink. He
woud make a law and a sensible one and
take away' the death penalty for its vio
lation. ."' "
His religion can be dispensed with
without great difficulty. Like the rest
of us, he probably hasn't enough religion
to quarrel about. He happened to be
born a Roman Catholic and hasn't out
lived it. ' He is probably about, as loyal
to his church as the average Methodist
or Baptist is to his. The Pope may or
may not know that Al is alive and this,
side of purgatory. At any rate he has
no idea of capturing Americca by having
Al Smith elected. None but the silly,
the credulous, the bigoted and the Phari
saical will offer such an argument.- Ro
man Catholics have been just as patri
otic as have Protestants. 'Today such
men as Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana,
David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts and a
host" of others, who are devout members
of the church of Rome, are among our
most distinguished patriots and public
servants. And there is an increasing
number of people in the South who Would
be glad to arise and give the lie to the
statement that we are controlled by re
ligious prejudice.
But the thing to do to elect Al Smith
is to nominate a Southern man to run
with him. . That man is Cameron Morri
son. Both men are progressives of the
best type, both are democrats of un
questioned loyalty to the party and both
are marvelous campaigners. Their rec
ords are unsullied and unstained.- No
hint of fraud has ; ever been lodged
against either, and when other state ex
ecutives were being sent to the peniten
tiary Al: Smith in the North and Cam
Morrison in the South stood out as two
unimpeachable governors. They both
have stood for law enforcement, both
have fought special privilege and both
have espoused, the cause of the common
man.
Cam Morrison's administration of the
affairs of North Carolina grows with the
years. It will go down in history ' as
perhaps the greatest of all the chief ex
ecutives since, Vance. He did not and
does not believe in the niggardly econ
omy of Coolidge and McLean. He be
lieves in spending money wisely and "for
the benefit of all. He is not as bluster
ous as the redoubtable Dawes, but as a
campaigner he has Hell and Maria back
ed off the boards. His Mellifluous and
indestructible voice would captivate a
New England audience. His record in
North Carolina would not only appeal
to the South, but all the New Englanders
who have driven over our marvelous sys
tem of roads would vote for him with
a whoop.
Former Governor Morrison is dry with
out being a fanatic. He does not think
that every man who believes in the mod
ification of the Volstead law is a traitor
and an anarchist. ; ;
. Morrison and Smith are acceptable to
the labor ; unions. .-: They are ' acceptable
to the farmers. They would make a
powerful appear to the country as thor
ough-going Americans. Morrison can
carry the South, Smith can 'carry the
North, while both can get the most of
the West. They , would drive Coolidge
distracted and they would make Dawes
look like thirty cents.' With Smith and
Morrison in the field the Democratic
party can count on New York, New Jer
sey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Kentucky, Ne
braska, 'Montana, California, New Mexi
co, Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, the Solid
South, Maryland, Rhode Island, with a
good chance of getting' the others. Al
Smith and' Cam Moirison are the hope
of a iiited Democracy, V v

SUNDAY CONCERT
GIVEN BY BAND
Sides and Trusselle Add Solos
' to Musical Program.
MARCHES PREDOMINATE
Trusselle Not So Good in First Solo
But Improves in Second
:"'::-';" ,;,;'A Offering. A
- ' v.
Kn excellent concert was given by the
University Band Sunday afternoon In
Memorial Hall. In addition to the num
bers presented by the band there were
four baritone solos by Stanley Porter
Trusselle and a cornet solo by Leonard
R. Sides. The concert opened with that
most familiar and well beloved anthem,
"Hark The Sound." The two following
selections Were marches which the band
has played at every football game this
year and which they are able to render
perfectly. They were both composed by
Hall and served as good examples of the
military music best suited to large bands.
Mr. Sides chose, for his cornet solo the
Addah Polka, by Losey. This spirited
composition was, a happy choice, as its
deliberate, measured rhythm was splen
didly brought out by the clear and pow
erful tones of the cornet as they rose
above the subdued accompaniment of the
band Mr. Trusselle's first solo, the Aria
from Donizetti's Do Sebattiano, was not
so good. Either the singer had difficulty
in finding his voice or the intricacies of
the "aria were too much for his powers.
The first division of the program was
brought to a close with two of Sousa's
most popular marches," the Invincible
Eagle and Stare and Stripe Forever,
which have an almost universal appeal
to lovers of stirring and martial airs.
After a brief intermission the program
was continued with another pair of
marches done In the band's best and most
finished style. These were the American
Cadet March, by the prolifit Mr. Hall
and the Greeting To Bangor, by the same
composer. The next division was a
group of three simple and lyric songs
which were much better adapted to the
limits of Mr. Trusselle's 'voice. When
relieved of the strain of classic inter
pretation he proved to be the possessor
of a moderately pleasing and cultured
baritone voice and handled these melo
dies in a manner filled with quiet charm.
Note Sleepe The Crimson Petal, by Quil
ter, was probably the most appreciated
of the trio. As concluding numbers the
band gave, Faure's famous devotional an
them, The Palme, and Bowman's fervid
Patriotic Overture. These were more
pleasing than any of the preceding num
bers, "as all the others had been heard
many times by the student body at this
year's athletic contests.
Mrs. Trusselle was pleasing as the ac
companist. -
Dr. and Mrs. Robert B. Lawson had
as their guests last week-end Miss Helen
Thomas of Olivia, and George Lawson
and his son Robert Lawson of Richmond.

City. Through its secretary, Mr. Wea
ver has ascertained, the requirements
