THE TAR HEEL Tuesday, March 30, 1Q2Q FINAL PREPARATIONS MADE FOR HI DEBATE (Continued from page on) and wide have been sought out by the high school debaters in their search' for material with which to boost up their ' arguments that North Carolina should or should not levy a state tax on prop erty to aid in the support of an eight months school term. The North Carolina High Schol De bating Union is conducted under the auspices of the Dialectic and Philan thropic Literary Societies and the Uni versity Extension Division of the Uni versity of North Carolina. It was or ganized in 1913. and the contest this year will thus be the 14th annual con- test. The high school which wins both of their triangular debates on April 2 will send their teams to the University on April 15 and 16 to take part in the final contest of the High School Debating Union for the Aycock Memorial Cup, the trophy which has been provided by the inter-collegiate' debaters of the Uni versity of North Carolina. This final contest will be a feature of High School Week at the University, tSe other fea tures of this occasion being the eleventh annual inter-scholastic tennis tournament and the fourteenth annual inter-scholas tic track and field meet for North Car olina high schools. 1 he triangles which have been ar- ranged for the state-wide contest of the High School Debating Union on April 2 were announced today by E.

The dangers of centralization were pointed .out in which it was asserted that education would be made the plaything of political parties and thus diminish the dignity of educational matters. A. S.

The speaker brought out that the essential weakness in the educational structure today is the fail ure to grasp the importance of organiza tion. He Instanced what the Depart ment of Agriculture and Labor had ac complished in the way of the Improve ment of conditions anjl inquired f. "Is not emia rearing as important as nog rais ing?" The speaker continued that the government owes it to the people for active participation in affairs for their welfare, whereas present educational fa cilities are inadequate, for they lack or ganization and concentration whereby those desiring proper and concise infor mation could be effective in research and the betterment of conditions. He then concluded with the assertion that this measure enables concentrated activity and a diversification of education. Richard Perdue, of Swarthmore, closed the constructive material for the nega tive. Perdew demonstrated ease and gracefulness as a speaker and effective poise and understanding of the subject. He very wittily dapped at his opponent, Mr. Metcaif, and affirmed with particu lar charm in expression and choice of words the pleasure of being south where there is not so much bustle and serious ness, but where people seem to enjoy the wholesomeness oflife. The speaker de clared he saw no advantage - or merit in a reorganization of the Bureau of Education into a department, but that the enalrgement of the Bureau of Edu cation has all the advantages of the Curtis-Reed Bill with the notable advan tage of being out of the reach of poli tics. "This measure merely means the possibility of research and statistics, with attempts to garner that intangible thing called prestige," he stated. The speaker asserted that the attempt to gain larger appropriations by the meth od his opponents advocate is a step to ward political control and lobbying in Congress. - Metcaif was the only speaker on the refutation, which was in keeping with the rules of the Open Forum. His re buttal was a distinct .weakness. "'A bird in the hand' is the objective of fed eral organization," he said. He fur ther continued that the federal govern ment had reaped tangible results in agri cultural organization, and that the Bu reau of Education lacks effectiveness in gaining its due rights and appropria tions! j Qtiestions'were. then solicited from the house, and following, a vote was taken which signified victory for the negative. CATALOG OF CENTURY AGO COMPARED TO NEW ISSUE (Continued from page one) will give an idea of the subjects avail able. Today there are 170 professors and over 70 fellows in the faculty who teach hundreds of different courses. A hundred years ago there were three buildings listed in the catalogue: East. West, and South. Each of the three buildings stands today practically as they were at that time with the excep tion of South which is now being reno vated with that Idea in, mind. Today there are 44 buildings. There were, a century ago, H2 stu. dent's, 40 of which were seniors, 21 jun iors, 29 sophomores, and 22 freshmen" The number seems small to us when it is compared with the present enrollment Of 2,300, but it was a large number for that day. No mention at all is made in the cata logue of the costs of a year at the Uni versity. This seems quite' unusual after reading the catalogue for 1926. The growth of the University has been pointed out in many ways. But one of the best indications is the irrent h;i. ence in the two catalogs. Its growth has been along all lines including faH courses of study, buildings, students, and many others. . The regular meeting of the Deutwh.

Derma-Glo has a two-fold ac tion. First, it f allays any smarting. burning or irritation after shaving. Sec ond, if rubbed well into the skin for about a minute and then rinsed out with cold water it acts as a massage, cleans ing the pores of the skin thoroughly by dissolving the embedded dirt, grease, grime, soot, etc. The daily use of Derma-Glo will help keep the skin young. It will assist in taking away wrinkles, crow's-feet and skin blemishes. Derma-Glo is unlike any preparation on the market. It is not a liquid, salve, ointment, or grease.
