Clmse, acording to well-founded "rumors, will .today ren der ls decision, while in conference with the board of trustees f the University at a special meeting this afternoon at the Governor's office, Raleigh, in regard In tin" offer of the Oregon university presidency. Vesterday afternoon Pres. Chii.se was in lialeigh in conference, with the special committee, which was appointed by the eicutive committee of the board of trustees to confer with the University President concerning the Oregon offer. Although the Tar Ifeel went to press too curly to get any reports from the results of that conference, it is understood that no statement was concerning any decis ions readied or any details of the con ference were given out to press men. At the full meeting of the board of trustees this afternoon Dr. Chase will present a program for the University of North Carolina for the next four or five years the future policies of, the University its field of service, develop ment, etc. The President will present his program regardless of his decision on- the Oregon offer. ; However, it is understood that the cordiality of the reception of his program will bear much weight in the decision of President Chase. : - Opinions Divided Rumors and speculations have been rife' during the past few weeks while President Chase has had the offer of the University of Oregon under considera tion. Since bis return here Wednesday night, of last week, from the Pacific coast, where he hud been to get a first "hand observation of the Oregon univer sity, state dailies have carried rumors both favorable and unfavorable concern ing the decision of Dr. Chase. Here in Chapel, it is understood that opinions of Ills " decision stand about fifty-fifty for his. acceptance or refusal of the Pacific const university offer. However, that does not carry the as sumption that the faculty and the stu dents of the University, as well as the town's people, have been luke-warm in their insistences that President Chase remain here.

OFFICERS ARE ABSENT Cooper and Kelly Also Speak to Ab breviated Gathering.- Three substitutes were rushed forward to the rostrum in order to carry the ban ners of the Phi Assembly and place them in their regular position Saturday night.: This action was occasioned by the. magnetic charms of a certain col lege in the outskirts of Greensboro How ever, the officers were not the only ones absent, for only a few members stalked into the ball before action was opened by a resolute address from Carolina's most energetic cheer leader Rob Hardee., Reeolved, "That the Phi Assembly go "ii record as favoring a plan whereby the faculty would be allowed the previlige of paying the Student Blanket Athletic Fee, wherein the faculty members would have the same; priviliges of attending games as students," was the very impor tant resolution that the human "loud speaker" wus pleading for, and he showed Ids reasons why the resolution was to the best interest of the University. It was clearly shown that more friendly feeling' would exist between the students and faculty members. Here too is found a means' of saving money for the ath letic association. In talking with pro fessors and coaches Hardee bad found that there were universally in favor of ""' Plan. He believed that this plan, winch has proved a success in other, col leges; namely, Washingtoon and Lee, would cause more faculty members to "Mend a larger percentage of the games.

The State team had pre viously defeated the Tar Babies by an overwhelming score and were doped to repeat their performance Saturday but the Carolina team threw a big surprise and emerged from the contest victorious. They not only defeated Captain Good win's men, hut they also eliminated them from any chance of claiming the state championship title. Although they have won 13 out of 16 games played, the Wake Forest Fro.-.h have the best claim to the title inasmuch as they have only been defeated once. If it were not for the fact that Coach Shepherd's men lost to the Duke first year team last Friday night, .-they would have aa equal claim to the title. Captain Sutterfield's men jumped into the lead at the very, beginning of the game and were never headed during the entire contest. With Satterfield and Hackney ."playing' a great game and 'the entire team passing like veterans, the Tar. Babies clearly outplayed and out classed the State yearlings. Hackney started the fireworks when he caged a two-pointer "soon after the game had started, and the University boys ran up a nine-point lead nofdre the State quint broke into the scoring column. -After this, the outcome of the game was never in doubt. . ' Practically the entire State five, which las been playing brilliant basketball throughout the entire season, performed as though they did mit care whether they won or lost. Frank Goodwin and Hunky" Waring, who have been classed as two of the best freshmen basketball players ever seen in action in the Old North State, were decidedly off color. They both played as though they had a hunk of lead in each shoe. Goodwin was held to a lone field goal, while Waring was able to ring up a total of six. The work' of Captain Satterfield and Hackney for the Tar Babies was the fea ture of the game. These two young ath letes'1 accounted for a total of eighteen points, ' which was enough to beat the State team. They also played a good floor game. The playing of Holden was the one redeeming feature of the State. teams performance.

Billy Devin, All-Southern guard who has been ill with influenza and spending his time in his room at the Hotel Ansjey, was back in the line-up and played a splendid game despite his., recent illness. His close guarding kept the score down, though "Mulligan" Holland,' Virginia ace, cut loose with several "prayer" shots during the last half. It was just those long shots off his one hand that sunk the Tulane Greenbacks in the first game Friday, and they came very near being the undoing' of .the Tar Heels. Holland would unwind his long arm and cut loose from anywhere within the center circle with a murmured prayer that it might find the goal, and three of ' (Continued on page three) BOXERS WIN FROM V.

BASEBALL SQUAD PHANTOMS DOWN PLAYMAKER TRIP IS GREAT SUCCESS Appear in Twelve Places on Second Tour of South ern States. VISIT CALVIN COOLIDGE Senator Overman Presents Troupe At White House. The Carolina Playtnakers have recently returned from the'r second tour of sduthern states, the longest trip that they kiave ever taken. Traveling fifteen hun dred miles by bus (The Playmaker Spe cial) and carrying their scenery, light ing and other stage equipment by auto truck, they" appeared in twelve cities, towns and colleges.

F.merson Fied began to take on aspect of Spring yesterday afternoon 'when the varsity baseball candidates made their initial appearance of the season. "Duke" Duncan, who was recently appointed to coach the team, had previously issued the call for candidates and he was greet ed by approximately sixty aspirants for the nine yesterday. AH wen who have not reported and who have had any ex perience at ail in the great" national pastime, are urged to report this after noon. The candidates were put through light work-outs yesterday and then sent to the showers. Although baseball prospects here are not the best in the world, they are far from being gloomly. With seven letter- men to build the team around, Coach Duncan should succeed in putting a very creditable nine on the field. However, he is greatly handicapped due to the fact that there is only one- old pitcher back in school. This one is "Bill" Poy ner, a veteran of two years. If the big right-hander can develop fairly good control he should create a sensation in college baseball circles this year. This has been his one great weekness in the pa.sl two years. . , Ed. Maekie, diminutive twirler on last year's Tar Baby team, should have little difficulty in landing a berth on the var sity this season. He was easily the out standing freshman pitcher in the state lust year and his twirling created quite a sensation. He possesses a good fast ball, a quick-breaking curve, and won derful control. AVith all these assets he should make Duncan a valuable man this year. In addition to these two men, there are several other men out for the pitch ing staff who 'have" hud varied exper ience, among them being Whisnant and Routb, the two sorell-topped twirlers who were on the varsity squad last year, and Westmoreland, a big left-hander, and Fred Graham, both of whom assist ed Maekie with the pitching end of "Runt" Lowe's 'Tar Baby nine last year.

After 'North .Carolina State started the 1.02(1 Tournament off in the right di rection by downing the Auburn Plains men in the first game of Friday's pro gram, the flying quint from the Univer sity of Tarheelia opened their traveling bags and -showed Atlanta and the southern cage fans what Southern Cham pions are made of. From the time when Artie Newcomb dashed under the basket and lay the first goal in for the Tar Heels until the' pistol shot to end the game between there , was never any doubt that the titlisls. would win, and win they did by the count of 52 to 21. The-Tigers, remembering their over whelming defeat from the Phantoms earlier in the season, were out for re venge and fought hard in their efforts to register one of the upsets of the day's play, but they were bucking a stone wall.- A brilliant (Tensive that drew favoriblc comment on all sides kept the hull in Clemson territory practically the entire game, and they never had a chance to do any heavy scoring.

The above advertisement arrived in the Tah IU-ki.'s mail yesterday morning ac-' companied by a short and plaintive, note beseeching the. editor's nssiatawee. The ad was dutifully turned over to the Business Manager for official attention; but the letter portion called for editorial attention and the Tar Hkki, bus never made a .policy -of refusing such requests from its feminine friends.-.;. ...The letter and advertisement were typewritten on plain paper. Its '.authen ticity is seriously doubted for some girl wag at Greensboro is evidently prema turely enjoying the approaching Junior- Senior. Consequently the Tah IIi:ki. is assuming no responsibility us to the re liability of the ud., but is carrying it so that any student who feels eligible and who cares to reply, may do so at his own risk. The letter to the editor reads as fol lows: "I am enclosing an advertisement that I should like for you to run in the next issue of the Tar Heel. If you can not do thisy perhaps you might know of two eligible, young men to whom you might refer this ad. If you can kindly help the two young ladies out they would he most grateful." . " Instead of signing the letter, the charming young writer (we just know she's charming to have thought up such a charming little intrigue) simply at tached the (id. Both the letter and the enclosure were typed and the sender gave no cine to herself, other than to sign the student government's name to it. Inasmuch as the letter commences In the first person, the student government Is hardly thought to'be responsible for the plea for assistance. The names of the young Indies are not divuiged, but owing to the exacting requirements laid down, they must be the queens of the college- to be so desir ious of such brilliant consorts.

Deputa tion Team made its third trip' of the winter quarter by visiting Greensboro over the past week-end and conducting a program there. Members of the team making the trip and their respective du ties were as follows: Madison and Men- deuhall composed the siring duet; Wood- nil,; Smith, Madison, and Mcndenhall made up the vocal quartet; and Crissman, Kennctt, Calhoun, Phillips, Fcrrell, and Chappell were speakers. Greensboro citizens came to Chapel Hill for the team in automobiles Thurs day afternoon. The first - meeting in which they took part was that of the Hi-Y club which met at a banquet Thurs day night with a number of boys and visitors present and at which the depu tation team put on a speciul musical program. Friday morning part of the team visit ed the Bessemer High School and the other part the Aycock High School. The vocal quartet unil string' duet rendered selections at the Bessemer school, and talks wcre made by Iec Kennett on "Clean Living", by Wulter Crissman on "Preparing for the Future", and by Bil lic Fcrrell on "Clean Sportsmanship". Jimmy Phillips and Chappell made talks at the, Aycock school. On the same morning the whole team visited the Greensboro School where talks were made by Crissman, Fcrrell, Chappell mid Phillips to more than 200 boys assembled in the school auditorium. Friday afternoon a visit was made to the Masonic home for old people.

Mr. Nod from intruding. Senator Eaton gave a lengthy, but full review of his resolution, "Resolved, That the Di Senate go on record as favoring recognition of the Soviet Government of Russia." The speaker outlined history of the question, showing wherein the present Soviet Government, is a culmina tion of the revolutionary spirit wllh dem ocracy us tin: ultimate objective, which practically all governments have under gone since the French revolutionary up heave, and which finally reached Russia in spite of the attempts of the Czar to thwart any' movement in this direction. He cited that not only the Czarist regime fell before the sweeping revolutionist but the Kerenksy Government which fol- . lowed the C.ar and was recognized by the United States was also shortly over thrown and the present Soviet Govern ment was instituted and has now gov- erneS that people for over eight years.

The two teums were about as evenly matched as any that have been seen in action on the Duke court this year. Both teams fought hard and the outcome of the game was in doubt until Referee Stciner's whistle brought an end to the fracas.
