"Shirt" Smith, the guy who sent the
Quantico Marines buck with a defeat of
8 to 1 in the early part of the second,
lost his horseshoe Tuesday afternoon
and Coach Duke Duncan's baseball co
horts pounded his offerings all over the
home lot for a total of 17 hits to count
for nine runs and sent the Guilford
Quakers back home with a 9 to 2 wal
loping. The game revives Carolina's as
pirations toward state championship hon
ors, since the Quakers have administered
drubbings to every other ,team in the
state except the Lenoir-Rhyne aggrega
tion. . '
Odeli Sapp, who occupied the mound
for the Tar Heels, hurled the most ex
cellent game seen on the home diamond
this year. - Twelve hits were garnered
of his delivery, but he kept them well
scattered With the exception of the
fourth and fifth innings when the Quak
ers bunched five hits to net two mark
ers. The hefty sophomore made eleven
of the Quakers whiff at the air, and
handed out only five free passes to the
initial station, two of those coming in
the ninth inning. He was especially ef
fective In the pinches. In the fourth

MAY 18 WILL BEGIN
SENIOR WEEK HERE
Courses In Junior and Senior Years
Will Remain Entirely Elective.
A new ruling affecting the major and
means thisr John Doe, a rising junior,
College of Liberal Arts was passed at
the last faculty meeting of that col
lege, a ruling doing away with what is
now , known as the "second minor" and
requiring that a student seeking the
bachelor of arts degree should concen
trate in only two fields as against the
present three. 1
The new ruling tends to remove one
restriction on the student a restriction
requiring work in a third field and
leaves him with the same number of
courses as before to be passed in but
two departments. The total number of
courses required is In no way affected.
The argument for the change lay pri
marily In the fact that students were
gaining a smattering of knowledge in
three fields and that it would be more
to their interest to know thoroughly
one field with one minor than to scat
ter his efforts over three. The whole
junior and senior year is still elective,
under the new scheme a "major" con
sisting of six to eight courses in an
elected department and a "minor" of
three or four courses in a second de;
pertinent. "."'.
In practice it will work in this way.
At the end of the sophomore year or
the beginning of the junior year each
student will, as now, elect to major
In some one of the twenty ormore de
partments in the College of Liberal
Arts. He will then report to. the head
of his chosen major department who will
confer with him on his particular in
terests in that department and will
chart a course of study for him to pur
sue to secure a major in that field. In
conference with this same department
head, a "minoitf will be elected one
which has a reasonable relationship to
the major and the courses in this sec
ond field will be charted.
The new ruling affects rising sopho
mores and juniors. A senior, who may
be well along in his programme, will
be given the option of continuing under
the old scheme or of accepting the new,

Team Will Play Two-Game Series
' With Wake Forest in

The Tar Heels will take Whitted's
Duke University Blue Devils into camp
on the home lot this afternoon for the
seccond game of the series between the
two aggregations, and will journey to
Pinehurst tomorrow where they will
clash with the Wake Forest Demon Dea
cons in the second of a three game se
ries. The game today will be called at
four o'clock, - and it is not definitely
known just what time the contest to
morrow, which will be a part of the an
nual Shriners Fete, will get under way.
By defeating the Guilford Quakers
yesterday with the "invincible" Shirt
Smith on the mound, the Tar Heels lined
themselves up once more for a whack
at championship honors. The Quakers
have lost only three games in the state,
two of those going to Lenoir-Rhyne, who
just about every other team in the state
has beaten. The Guilfordians have given
the State College Wolfpaek, the Wake
Forest Deacons, the Duke University
Blue Devils, and the Elon Christians all
tastes of defeat this season, and, stand
at the head of the line at present for
state " championship honors. " The Tar
Heels can figure in on the honors, though,
should they win the remaining games on
the schedule. Two . more games with
Wake Forest, two contests with the Elon
Christians, one more affair with State
College, and another Blue Devil victory
will give the Duncanites a good claim to
the championship flag.
' "Lefty" Westmoreland will probably
occupy the mound for the Tar Heels to
day, while Bill. Poyner may get another
fling at the Wake Forest Demons to
morrow. Westmoreland proved well
nigh invincible against the Duke Blue
Devils in the first game of the series a
few weeks ago. He held the Dukemen
to three lone hits, two of ' them of the
scratch variety, before he was forced to
retire in the fifth frame with a hurt
finger, and he should set the Blue Devil

Makes Blackboard Sketch of Battle of
Chancellorsville Prizes Awarded.
Cherished memories of the days of the
Confederacy were brought to mind by
Judge Robert W. Winston In his ad
dress on "The Characteristics of the
Confederate Soldier," which was deliv-
ered at the annual Confederate Memo
rial Celebration held under the aus
pices of the local chapter of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy at the old
Episcopal Church, Saturday morning.
Judge Winston divided his address
into two phases, the first part being
a discussion of the situation in which
the Confederate soldier found himself.
He gave a very rapid but vivid survey
of the economic situation of the land
south of the Potomuc river in 1861 in
which he showed that there were no
manufactures of any Importance, no
money except the almost valueless Con-
federate bonds, and no navy belonging
to the Confederacy. He showed that
there were more foreigners, more ne
groes, and more southerners in the
Union army at that time than there
were soldiers in the Confederate army
and that the Confederate soldiers did
not expect to defeat the Union army
without foreign assistance. In speaking
of the large cotton crop produced by
the southern states in 1861, he related
how I.e wanted to sell It to foreign
countries and use the gold obtained for
equipping the army while Davis wanted
to retain it so the foreign countries
would have to recognize the Confed
eracy before they could obtain it.
. In the second part of his address
Judge Winston spoke of the way In
which the Confederate soldier perform
ed during the war. The brilliant drive
on the Union food supply at Second
Manassas, the memorable Wilderness
Campaign of 1864, and the Confederate
victory at Chancellorsville were lived
through again by the veterans as the
speaker so vividly recounted them. The
supreme military genius of Stonewall
Jackson was pronounced as marvellous.
