The Tar Heel solicits adver- ' tising from reputable concerns only. Saturday, January 16, 1926 ; UP TO THE MEN For several years there has been a hor1 coming up from groups of men that the athletic association Vas en tirely too miserly and that its failure to provide coaches for the "minor" sports was cheating many students out of their natural rights of having eipert--coaches in - their favorite sports. - , .. . Just this past fall, in the halls of the Philanthropic Assembly a group of men, supposedly deeply interested in wrestling, called loudly on Mr. Woollen td provide . them with a wrestling coach. Possibly as a re sult of this action, Coach Quintan recently came here from the Vir ginia Military Institute' to take charge of the mat squad. He' came with an enviable championship rep utation behind him as an indication of his coaching ability and as an in dication that Mr. Woollen is intent on providing the local students with the- best coaching facilities possible. V Very few men have reported for wrestling practice and Mr. Quinlan states that he has only a small frac tion of the number that yearly re ported to him at V. M. I., although the cadet student body is consider ably smaller than the one here. Mr. Quinlan is a championship winner, so far as coaching goes, but he is helpless without men with whichto work. - , '' i. It's up to the men. Coaches are here for both wrestling and boxing. j3xpcr training is obtainable for the mere reporting. Carolina's athletic success in the sports depends upon the interest shown by the students. CUTTING OFF THE LIQUOR In a statement from Chief of Po lice Featherstone, it is shown that the local police are going out of their way to put an end to the flow of liq uor that has poured into Chapel Hill during times past. The results of their recent activity show plainly that Orange County is still the same old Drange County "that we hear so much about." . Alumni of. this institution are blamed with a lot of the sinning that occurs on big occasions. If the al umni are at fault it is only just that they should suffer their share of the 'resulting blame.' Students have been made the scapegoat too long. It is understood that the state ment attributed to the police chief that he had "raided", a few frater nities several times is misleading. Police authority has been used sev eral times in quelling disorder but systematic "raids" have not been found necessary. .'.'.- ' . The police are entitled to coopera tion from the students in their bat tle against "demon rum". The best possible assistance that the Univer sity men can render the officers is to abide by the law and leave the con traband alone. ASPHALT PROVES ITS WORTH The snow and sleet that fell a week ago is still with us. For the first time since Hinton James walk ed all the way to Chapel Hill from Wilmington, Cameron Avenue failed to become a sea of mud. Owing to an increase in vehicular traffic using the road, conditions last year became chronic. The concentration of class buildings on the south side of the campus made it necessary that the students cross and recross the thor oughfare several times during the course of a day and the mud at times literally became ankle deep. Realizing that a hard surface for the road was necessary, the Univer sity saw fit to draw on its not over abundant funds and to lay the as phalt. This act has become a bless ing to all. KRUMPLEMAN TALKS OF GERMAN BICYCLE TRIP In spite of" the various other attract nois on the Hill, a goodly number, of people attended the meeting of the Deutscber Verein Thursday evening in the auditorium of Murphy HalL Mr. Krumpleman gave an illustrated lecture concerning his bicycle trip through Germany and Austria last year, exhibiting ' many rare- and beautiful scenes. The slides included views of the famous village of Oberamegau, many re mote castles, picturesque mountain lakes and, also, one of the places where the best beer in the world may be obtained. just before this "big game each year, students at California University build a huge bon-flre and parade about town clad in pajamas. This peculiar diver- lion was developed by young bucks who sought a scheme to exclude women from the rallies. The women were 'requested not to attend but every device short of physical force failed to keep them away. Finally someone hit on the idea of rob ing the men in pajamas. Women arriv ing at the festival shrieked in horror and fled. The men continued their rally undisturbed. Thus the "pajamarino" de veloped. In recent years, however, even this plan has become ineffective. The co-eds now don their own purple and green nighties and take an equal part in the celebrations. OPEN FORUM u , ' ' ii. i - 11 " PAUL SIEG 'Paul Seig, Jr., formerly a grad uate student of the University, died at his home in Hickory, Wednesday, January 13. Having been ill with grippe Bince Decem ber 26, he suffered a relapse in the early part of the week and succumbed to the malady. ' Mr. Seig was a Graduate stu dent in Chemistry and held a position as Instructor in the Chemistry Department of the University. After having com pleted his four-year course at Lenoir-Rhyne college, Hickory, he entered he University as a Graduate student in June, 1925. Since his entrance here, he made a reputation as a conscientious and hard working student and won the friendship of his asso ciates. Mr. Seig was the son of Prof. Paul Seig, Sr, Treasurer of Lenoir-Rhyne college. - He had reached the age of 22 years, years that had been spent in conscientious preparation for service to his ' fellowmen. ' He was a member of the Lutheran church, and took an active part in the activities of that denomin ation among the students here. Funeral services were held at Hickory, yesterday, at 4:30 P. M, interment being in the family plot of that place. In speaking of the sterling character of the deceased, one of his friends has said, "He was a thorough Christ ian gentleman, a good student, and a trustworthy friend ; one cannot speak too highly of his character, for I have been asso ciated intimately with him and have never known him to ex press an unworthy sentiment or do anything of a doubtful char acter." i ' To the Editor! The stock of the Carolina Magazine is rising among the student body. Edi tor Couch is to be congratulated. The Baptist denomination has found some thing in the December issue which it considers to be "injurious to the morals of the young." Copies are being dug up out of dark closets and dusty corners because the students, who usually lay the Magazine "aside" with a few peremptory grunts, fear that they may have missed something if the Baptists think it im portant enough to suppress. The Baptist paper draws a summary conclusion that "unclean matter" ap peared in the December issue and that the Magazine should be cleaned iip by the faculty. That conclusion supposes the following premise: That those re sponsible for the opinion of the Baptist paper are more able to distinguish the clean from the unclean than the editor of the Magazine. Let us see." . -This editor is a Senior in the Univer sity, a very wide-awake young man, In command of all his . faculties. He has demonstrated his intellectual mettle In various 'ways, not the least of which has been his piloting of the-Maaztn during two tempestuous years of its history. He is a student .of social and economic questions, a debater of note, and a wear er of the Golden Fleece. ' One could scarcely question the moral perceptions of the editorand of his entire staff. Is it possible, then, that the Baptists have been. appointed of God to distin guish the clean from the unclean in lit erature! W think it hardly possible. No less experienced a man than Ole Buck, field manager of the Nebraska Press Association said only, Wednesday night: "It is' incalculable that any board should have the- authority to say what should or should not be printed." If these gentlemen have found anything "unclean" in" the Magazine, the fault no doubt lies in their method of reading it. - This judgment which has" been pro nounced, charges that socialism appeared in the Magazine. Admitting socialism to be neither good nor evil, I cannot but doubt the validity of a theology that fears for itself at the merest mention of socialism. .On what basis do they work? That their members may never discover anything or evil or supposed evil? Such a "fugitive and cloistered virtue" receives little credit in the mod ern world. "He that can apprehend and consider vice with all her baits and seem ing pleasures, and yet abstain, and yet prefer that which is truly better, he is the true warfaring Christian." RALPH NOE. SLIDING SPREE LEADS TO DAMAGE TO BEDS Fun-Lovers Fail to Visit Superintend-: ent to Pay For Beds Borrowed from Vacant Rooms. The recent snow and sleet proved to be quite a pleasure for a great number of the fun-loving populace of the Univer sity. Some ingenious young gentlemen found that bed springs furnished a very good substitute for a sled. They had the added advantage of being of gener ous size, and a very soft cushion could be furnished by. placing a mattress on the springs. " The abundance of hills around Chapel Hill furnished ample provisions for sliding grounds. '".'. In fact the accomodations were too good and before the fun was over there naturally occured some unfortunate ac cidents.. In addition to a few boys re ceiving minor injuries, a; great many of the springs and mattresses were badly damaged. So many .were damaged that the University saw fit to send around to get an acurate check on the damage. In all about fifteen springs and a few less mattresses were hurt during the spree. Several of these belong to rooms which are now vacant. In spite of announce ments in chapel to the effect that any contributions for the damaged property would be gladly received at the Superin tendents office, no one has as yet signi fied a willingness toadvance any funds. The fact that many most bewail, however is that -the fun was abruptly brought to an end by some gentlemen who was looking out for the good of the property of the school. . . ; Recent faculty rulings have annoyed car-owning undergrods. A retaliatory movement is abroad. Students at Utah Agricultural College raise the. question: "Should professors be allowed to drive autos?" A professor enroute home from a foot ball eame, gave four students a lift Momentarily falling asleep, he allowed the car to careen down a hill and come to a disastrous stop in a large hole at the bottom. The four boys ask what punishment Is too great for this professor, who "wil fully and purposely slept, betraying the trust so sincerely placed in him by ador ing students." Defendant pleads a business meeting kept him out late the night before, but the boys answer that this was what Jiggs told Maggie and are insisting upon an extreme penalty. V , FIVE LETTERMEN BACK FOR SQUAD Baseball Prospects Look Bright for Coming Season. JOHNSON HAS RETURNED Stanton and Poyner Come Back Hat ley and Jones Here. Quotations on Tar Heel baseball stock rose several points this week with the return to college of several old men who had been out during the fall quarter. Captain-elect johnny Johnson, shortstop. Buck Stanton, first baseman, and Bill Poyner, pitcher, all lettermen, register ed again this quarter and will be out for their old positions in the spring. ' . Captain Johnson remained out of col lege last fall to take a teaching job, but when the prospects for the Carolina dia mond reached the low water mark this fall his friends prevailed on him to get a release from his teaching contract and return to lead the 1926.Tar Heels. John son has been a' star at short for the Tar Heels for the past two seasons' and last year was almost unanimous choice for All-State in that position. He has been weak in the hitting end of the game, but last spring he raised his mark almost fifty points above that of the 1924 cam paign and was one of the most valuable men on the squad with ,the" big stick. His home run in the eighth inning broke up the--rst Virginia game and was re sponsible for the only Tar Heel win over the Cavaliers last year. Stanton and Poyner were both regu lars on Hie team last spring. Stanton hit for the remarkable average of .447 dur ing his year with the Freshmen, but last spring he allowed bis percentage to sink below the three hundred mark. With a year of experience he should break the hearts of a few varsity, pitchers in this section of the South this year. Poyner was one of the leading pitchers last spring and should be a valuable addition to the hurling staff this season. With the return of these men Coach Bill Fetzer will "have five letter men to build around this' season. Hatley, out fielder, and Jones, third baseman, are the other letter men in college now. Bill Sharpe and "Monk" Green, reserve catchers, are also back and will fight it out for Bonner's job behind the bat.. From the freshman team comes four men who hit over 300 last year. They are-Young, Tenney, and Webb, infielders, and Mackie, a left handed pitcher. PHOTOGRAPHER WILL BE HERE NEXT WEEK Appointments Must Be Made At Sut ton and Alderman's Last Chance . to Get Pictures Made. - CALL IS ISSUED Places on Team Are Not Yet Cinched QUINLAN IS NEW, COACH First Meet of Season Will Be With Concord Y. Coach Quinlan has issued a call for men in all weights to come out for wrestling. Practice is held in the Tin Can from 4 o'clock till 6 every after noon. At present the squad is composed of a very few men, and there Is room for more competition In every class. Try- outs will be held every week, giving each man on the squad a chance to make the team before any-meet on the schedule. With the advent, of an efficient Coach and a revival of Interest on the part of the student body it is felt that wrest ling is destined to occupy a new sphere at Carolina. Already the prospects are much better than in the past and Coach Quinlan is looking for a very successful season. No places on the team are cinched, and every man who is interest ed In wrestling is urged to come out and begin training whether he has had pre vious experience or not. Until this year the team had no official coach but managed to get through several successful seasons as' a result of individ ual training and much hard work Coach Quinlan comes here with the en viable reputation of having developed two undefeated " championship teams while coaching at V. M. I. Last year the cadets lost , the South Atlantic title by the slender margin of one point Coach Quinlan is .a graduate of the Springfield Y. M. C. A. College of Phys ical Culture and is a letter man in foot ball and wrestling. Before going to V. M. I. he was assistant wrestling coach at Penn State for two years. The " Carolina mat men face a hard schedule, meeting Davidson, N. CjUate, Duke, Virginia, Washington and Lee, V. M. I., Raleigh Y M. C. A, Concord Y. M. C A. The first met is with the Concord "Y" next Friday night In the Tin Can. V.." " The Yackety Yack photographer will make his last trip to the Hill next week to complete the pictures for the 1926 year book.: Very few appointments were made on the last trip and consequently a great many . pictures remain to be taken. In order to secure a favorable ime for appointments it will be necessary to make early engagements. . j Members of the annual business staff will be at Sutton and Alderman's the rest of. this Week and all of next week from 12:30 until 4:00 P. M. to make ap pointments. By seeing them early a much better choice of time can be se cured to have the pictures made. Espe cially is this true of fraternities and other groups which must be taken. Num erous appointments have already been made, and indications point to a very full week for Mr. Moulton, the photo grapher. - . Individual pictures will be mtfde at the rate of $2.00 for a set of four proofs. Junior space will be $3.00 -and Senior space will be $10.00. Group space will be sold at the rate of $35.00 a page. $17.50 a half-page, and $30.00 a puge for more than one page. . All groups are expected to communl cate at'once with the business manager, loin Campen at 202-Old East, to let him know the amount of space that each of them desires. ' " Y. M. C. A.

OFFICERS FOR THIS TERM Crissman Elected Di President at Last Meeting Before Christmas. The last meeting of the past quarter of Di SenaJe occasioned, the election of officers for the ensuing quarter. Wal ter Crissman was elected president; Julian Busbee, president pro-tenn M. I. Mogulescu, clerk j D. T. Milne, Sareent- of-arms. The recent officers have pledged themselves to blaze new paths in an ef fort to revive and maintain interest. The Saturday night confab was n rather live one and was carried on be fore about fifty members in spite of competing attractions and the fact that it was the first meeting of this term. The resolution which inspired so hiany to participate -was. "Resolved: That the class officers and representatives of the Student Council should be separate." henator Kennette introduced the mea sure, outlining briefly its merits. The Senator Seemed to think a 'distinction be tween these two official bodies is essential to democratic policies and institutions. 'Those who discussed the plan were: affirmatives-Senators Kennette, Price, Glenn, Kartus, Bledsoe, Block j negative Senators King, Moser, Strew. The af firmative brought forward the conten tion that under the present system offic ers are often elected on the basis of popularity disregarding candidate exe cutive ability. They pointed out that in the case of the Student Council it is especially urgent that its composition should be segregated from the popular element in election of class officers. The negative attempted a refutation of the measure on the grounds that this popu lar element would enter in under advo cated resolutions and that little good would be effected by. the change. The resolution was carried by 12 to 10 vote. RELIGIOUS WORKERS" COUNCIL HAS SUPPER Thirty Members Attended Regular Monthly, Meeting At Presbytetian i Church Tuesday' Evening. The Religious Worker's Council met at its usual monthly supper Tuesday even ing in the social room of the Prcsby teriun church. ? Thirty members were present. ; " ' ' The finding committee on the paper presented by J. C. Phillips at the Coun cil meeting on December 8 on the "Plans: of Organization and Administration for Student Work in the Churches of Chapel Hill' made a report. This committee re commended that the general plan in corporated in the paper be adopted with a few changes. However, nothing defi nite was done In regard to it and it will be further discussed at the next meeting in Februury. Reports were received from Lee Ken- netteand K. Barwick on the Methodist Young Peoples' Conference which they attended In Memphis durinir the latter lart of the Christmas holidays. , F. SV Wilder who' -attended the Interdenomi national Student Conference in Evanston 111., was, unable to make his report anil will do so at the next nieetinir. More over, at thee next -meeting besides this report and further consideration of Mr. Phillips paper, Walter Crissman will present a paper on "Student Organ izations." - Stop-yatches were thrown away and a new method of timing was followed In a recent football game between Brown and Boston Universities. The first two quarters consisted of 40 plays, and the last two of 35 each. This, system eliminates the possibility of stall ing, and any suspicion of juggling of the time. Coaches and spectators declared the experiment an unqualified success.
