CAROLINA MEETS
DEMON DEACONS
THIS AFTERNOON
Final Encounter on Emerson
Field Ends Three Games
Series.
SAPP LIKELY TO PITCH
Person or James May Hurl for Bap
tist Last Game in Chapel Hill.
Tins afternoon ; the - Demon Deacons
from Woke Forest College will be seen
in notion on Emerson field for the first
time this season when they play the Tar
Heels the third and final game of the
series between the Deacons and the Dun
canites. The game is scheduled to begin
lit four o'clock, and since the Deacons
have captured both of the previous af
fairs, the Duncanites are expected to put
up a strong fight to prevent the Baptists
making the count three straight. The
game will be the last one to he played
on Emerson field this season.
Just who Coach Duncan will cull upon
to do mound duty this afternoon is not
: known. In Tuesday's affair with the
Duke University Blue Devils Bill Poy-
ner and "Lefty" Westmoreland occupied
the mound, leaving only Odell Sapp to
work against the Deacons today. How
ever, "the Duke" could give either West
moreland or Poyner the assignment since
neither of them pitched over three inn
. ings Tuesday.
Person, who sent the Tar Heels down
to defeat in last Friday's, Deacon affair
in Pinelnirst, is liable to get another fling
at the Duncanites today. The hefty
right-hander made his initial appearance
of the year last Friday and showed quite
a bit of stuff, although the Tar Heels
touched him for 12 safe swats. Should
he fail to fill the bill, James is the next
logical Deacon twirler, since both Sorrell
and Simmons are ineligible to pitch
against t!te Tar Heels. James has been
steadily turning in victories for the Dea
cons this year, and should go very well
against the Tar Heel "murderer's row."
The' probable, line-ups .for the affair
are: Wake Forest Timberlake, center
field; CS reason, second base; Clayton,
short stop; Holt, left field; Baucoin,
right field; Riley, first base; P. Vyner,
third base; Martin, catcher; Person or
James pitcher. Carolina Tenney, short
stop; Sides, second base; Hatley, center
field; Mackie, right field; Young, left
field; Webb, third base; Jones, first base;
Sharpe, catcher; Sapp, pitcher.
Saville and Major Fiske
Confer on River Problem
Hy-has
Thorndike Saville, Professor of
draulic and Sanitary Engineering
recently returned . from Chattanooga,
Tennessee, where he, as the representa
tive of the North Carolina Department
of Conservation Development, conferred
with Major II., C. Flske, engineer officer
of the AVar Department, in regard to the
investigation of 'the Tennessee River and
its tributaries, which has been made with
a $750,000 appropriation from Congress.
Since the Hivvassee, French Broad, and
Pigeon DRivers of North Carolina are
tributaries of the Tennessee River, the
Department sent Mr. Saville to receive
information in regard to the possibilities
of water development there.
Under the jurisdiction of the Federal
Department several .. applications for
water development are being made there
now, '.. ', """ '. . . .'

DUNCAN USES FOUR PITCHERS
Bill Sharpe and Moose Tenny Are Im

ing Pearce Hits Well.
The i)uke University Blue Devils
were ut for sweet revenge for the two
defeats that the Tar Heel aggregation
had handed them and last Tuesday aft
ernoon they pounded four Tar Heel
hurlers' offerings to all corners of
Hanes field to defeat Coach Duncan's co
horts by a 17 to 9 count.
After the game enthusiasm through
out the Duke campus ran wild. An im
mense "shirt-tail" parade was formed,
and about seven or.. eight hundred of the
Duke students filed down the Main
street of the Bull City gallantly swing
ing onto each other's shirt tails. The
old college bell was rung, and Durham
was literally "puiuted red' in honor of
the Blue Devil victory over the Tar
Heels. . f -
'"Lefty" Westmoreland started on the
mound for the Tar Heels but the Blue
Devils stick artists solved his teasers in
the second frame and tapped him for
five safe bingles to count for six runs
and the port-sider retired in favor of
"Big Bill" Poyner who fared little bet
ter than did his predecessor and was
sent to the showers in the fourth Frame
when the' Dukemen got next to him for
2 hits and 2 runs. Ed Mackie, the Tar
Heel right gardener, then tried his hand
un the mound, but he was slightly wild
and retired in the seventh stanza and
"Red" Whisnaut took the mound.
For the Blue Devils, Tliompson opened
the game but was sent to the showers in
the seventh verse after "Hat" Hatley
and Mackie had obtained two; two-bag--
gers as a beginner for the inning. Thom
as took the mound and allowed the Tar
Heels two more hits in the next two' in
nines. '
Pitcher Thompson was th" hitting star
of the day with a brace of four-baggers
and a single out of four trips to the
cushion. In the second frame Thompson
touched "Lefty'? Westmoreland for his
first base knock, and came back in the

Brother III; Poole
Unable to Lecture
' D. Scott Poole, atuhor of the
Poole Bill, failed to come and
deliver the . lecture which was
scehuled to be given Tuesday
night in Gerrard Hall under the
auspices of the Diulectic Socie
ty. Members of the Di received
u wire from him Tuesday morn
ing stating that on account of
the serious illness of his brother
he would be unable to give the
address at the appointed time.
He said that he hopes to be here
and speak on the subject of evo
lution at a later date.
At the meeting of the Dialec
tic society Tuesday night the
members decided to extend the ,
invitation to a later date, more
convenient for Mr. Poole.
Only a few more days and the Yackety
Yack will be here to beguile the weary
hours until vacation; in fact, it should
come out about the twenty-fifth of this
month.
The .staff hopes that the .1920 Yuekcty
Yack will prove itself to be bigger and
better than any of its predecessors.
Within its 448 pages it contains many
features. A Vanity Fair section will be
devoted to the beauties of North Caro
lina and a section will be devoted to
dance. The Crackety Crack, a minia
ture Yackety Yack by Parchy Mclver,
is the laugh feature. -
The annual will contain the usual ju
nior and senior sections; however, these
will not be alphabetically arranged. An
Index will.be placed, in the back of the
book so that the haphazard arrangement
of names will causS no difficulty. . Six
teen" pages will be devoted to colored
views of the campus and points of in
terest about the University. Several in
teresting historical notes will .be include
ed; among these will be a picture and
history of the tablet plundered from Old
East during the Civil War 'and only
recently returned.
This Yackety Yack is dedicated to Mr.
Leslie Weil of Goldsboro, who is a mem
ber of the Executive Committee of the
Board of Trustees and one of Carolina's
most prominent alumni. Miss Margaret
Wellons of Smithficld is sponsor.
Edwards and Broughton Printing Co.,
of Raleigh, have done all of the printing
and "engraving of this year's Yackety
Yack, and W'outen and Moulton of New
Rem have done the photography.
The annual 'will come to the campus
through the labors of the following men

Students to Sign Pledges Next Fall
When Registering.
A committee of upper classmen and
Y. M. C. A. secretaries have worked out
a new plan for financing the' work of the
Y, M. C. A for next year. The new
plan will go into effect at the beginning
of of the fall quarter and it is believed
that it will help to solve the big problem
which faces the Y euch year of securing
the pledges and collecting them.
:. By the new plan, students will volun
tarily make their pledges to the Y at the
time of registration at the beginning of
the fall quurter and they will be paid
to the treasurer of the Y. M. C. A. at
the time the student pays. his bills to the
university. vThe purpose of this new
plan is to relieve the student bod of
the worry and confusion caused each fall
by finance campaign committees can
vassing from room to room throughout
the fall quarter. It is believed that this
new plan will prove much more success
ful" than the one heretofore used and
that the necessary finances will be se
cured at the "minimum cost of time and
money.
The Y. M. C. A. is flatly opposed to
a blanket fee covering Y. M. C. A. con
tributions, preferring that, as is the case
in all religious organizations, that all
financial aid should come on a purely
voluntary basis. Every semblance,
therafore, of. a blanket, fee has been
avoided. The new plan provides than in
stead of a large and expensive banquet
each fall from which one hundred to
one hundred and fifty canvassers go out,
that there shall be some half-dozen mem
bers of the Cabinet stationed in tbe
registration line in Memorial Hall and
in a quiet and dignified way, tliey will
give every student who registers an op
portunity to make a pledge to tlte Y.
-M,a A,-nt that time.
This committee will also have charge
of the collection of tbe necessary data
for the Student Directory and issuing the
Athletic Pass Books at the time of regis
tration.' Continued on page four)

Business Meeting of Di Senate Next
Tuesday to Be Last of Year.
The Dialectic Senate met Tuesday
night in its hall in New West building.
The regular routine business was at
tended to and after that the Senate set
tled down for some animated discussion
on various bills of interest .
The first bill to be brought before the
Senate was a bill to eliminate the pres
ent system of open primaries and sub
stitute in its place closed primaries.
Senator Kennett spoke in" fuvor of tbe
bill. He stated that each party voted
in the primary more or less separately.
A closed primary would allow party
leaders the chance to get. together and
thrash out the character of a man..' With
open door you are not able to get out
and oppose your 'opponent because he is
usually in your own party und to op
pose him would be flaying your own par
ty. Behind closed doors the thing could
be fought' out and a man's character
reuly determined as to whether or not
he was fit to run for office.
Senator Houchins stated that he
thought the present system was all right.
In open primary a person may go to the
pulls and vote as be pleuses. lie should
feel morally bound to support the poli
cies of his party. In a closed primary
a man must swear that he votes us his
party does. !
A bill to the effect that the Phi Beta
Kappa be abolished at the University
was next brought up." Senator Kennett
defended this bill also. He staled that
the 'group did not see the bill from the
right standpoint. A Phi Beta Kappa
man has to make suerlfices to belong to .
that group. He stated 1 hat there were
men of many types, mainly speaking, the
one-cylindered man and the two, four,
or even six-cylindered man. The one-
cylindered man could see college only as
a place to get book learning ainf not to
get thebroud part out of it thut could
be gotten. They arc willing to sacrifice
everything to be the wearer of a little
