PRAISE DIRECTOR HOLMES Result of Vote by Student Body Shows That Hackney Won by Substantial j Majority Awarded Tonight. The electkm for the winner of the Davie Memorial Cup has been held; the votes have been counted; .the race is over. Bunn Hackney won by a ma jority of 201 votes and will be presented with the award tonight. During the first two days of the elec tion very little interest was shown and few votes were cast, but on Saturday . , the student body awoke somewhat to the realization of the importance of the award and Tar Heels were coljected all over the camrjus. so that ' the ballots . might be secured and filled out. ( Saturday ninht's' counting of the votes showed that only 876 were cast, of , which Hackney secured 875, , The award is a beautiful silver trophy cup, which was given by Preston Davie, of New York, in memory of Genera William Richardson Davie. He asked that the, a ward be given to that student who, in the opinion of his fellow stur dents, "has best exemplified during-the year ending 1926, in character, scholarf ship, and sportsmanship, the ideals and traditions of the University." Bunn Hackney, winner of the .Gov ernor William Richardson Davie Memf orial Cup, Is a splendid type of all-round student and well deserves the honor of the award. He was recently tapped as a member of the G olden Fleece, is president-elect of the Athletic Associa tion, captain-elect of the Carolina bas ketball teamengages in three phases of athletics football, basketball, and track, and was president of the sophomore class and representative on the student council.

Production. By Reviewer The seekers after knowledge and cul ture, more often than not, have a very rocky road to. travel, but those who have the thirst for better things and who went to see Moliere's Le Malade Imaginaire at the Playmuker's Theatre Friday and Saturday not only received a demonstra- tion of French as she is spoke, but were highly entertained besides. The play, written in 1673, is quaintly melodramatic, It contains a fake death, a deceiveing wife, two characters who adopt various disguises, and plans for a forced marriage. Its speeches are surprisingly long, and there is but little time between astonishing bellows. The performance was well above the Playmaker average. This is due no doubt to the work of Holmes the director wjio also took the leading role. He ranks far above the Playmaker or gard en variety of director, and as an actor showed greater ability than we have seen for some time. He played the part of Argan the imaginary invalid, in the vio lent manner that was proper, and . his trumpetings were a constant source of delight to the audience. Toinette, the maid, as verbal adversary of Argan (lid nobly. Together their screams could be heard farther than was necessary. Miss Warren as tne secona principal was well chosen. She gave the part of Toinette a polish. lieline, Argan's second wife, played by Carolyn Oswald, was not done too well. Her voice was too weak, and she recited her lines rather than acting them. ,. Eliza beth Henderson had the part of Ange liqut, and gave a fair show. Tarasa Graham as Lonison, Angelique's younger sister, had a minor part, but played it very well. . She appeared to advantage in her long, flowing robes, and her faint was not marred by, such aversion to the floor as had M. L. Rodoff, who played the part of the dumb son of a doctor. M. Kadoff's part suited , him, but his (Continued on page four) Three thousand spectators crowded into 'the stands on Emerson Field Sat urday to see Dewarl Clayton twirling nee, hold the hard-hitting Gastonia base ball aggregation to six hits, while his leain mates were pounding out eleven hits off Jenkins to count for a 9 to 1 victory, and the 13th annual high school state championship contest. Tin; Clayton hurler was easily the stellar performer of the'. day. He had worlds of stuff on the ball, but was slightly wild, issuing six free passes to first base and hitting a couple of the Gastonia players. Besides pitching a beautiful brand of baseball, the twirler lined out a single and a double out of four trips to the rubber. V, j Houghton, the" Clayton second base man, exhibited the fastest and prettiest,, fielding of the day in his sapers around thp keystone sack. The dimunitive sec ond baseman accepted seven hard chances without a bobble. His stellar play of the day was made in the fifth inning when he raced back of first base to pull in Carson's swift liner and re tired him at first. In the initial frame lie made another nice play when he cir cled around back of second to draw in Jackson's roller and throw him out at first To Ciark, another of Van String field's cohorts, goes second fielding hon ors of the day for his one-hand stab of Frederick's line drive to deep center in the fourth inning. The Clayton center gardener raced far back into center field, leaped up and pulled the ball down with one hand, and then threw to secondto hold Schneider, who had previously walked, on the initial sack." "Clark also obtained an infield hit in the second frame which started the scoring for Clayton. ' ' Parrish and Walters divided the bat ting honors of the day, Parrish getting a triple and a double out of five trips to the cushion, and Walters obtained a four bag blow and a single out of four trips. Ellis and Dewar each obtained two hits each, one of Dewar's blows go ing for two bases. -About three thousand enthusiastic and noisy fans witnessed the contest, a spe cial train comingjipi from Gastonia bringing fans from that city,' and sev eral hundred fans from Clayton jour neyed through the country.

M'LEAN CHIEF SPEAKER Introduced by Chase, Governor Com pares Times and Predicts State's Growth. Senior Week was brought to a fitting close Friday night with- a banquet held at the Carolina Inn with Governor Mc Lean present. About two " hundred members of the senior class and fifteen co-eds attended the banquet, and all report a fine time. This year's banquet was the largest ever held in the history of the University and also the most tuc- cessful. The great success was due in part to the excellent management of the committee m charge and in part to the new plan of finances, whereby class dues are paid in advance at Ihe same time as tlie registration fee. The Tarsonian Orchestra furnished the music for the occasion. The menu was of unusual excellence, consisting of fruit cocktail,' lamb chops, green peas, potatoes, tomato and lettuce salad, and apple pie a la mode. '.'.; Laurence Watt, president of the sen ior class, served as toastmaster and de livered a short speech to the class. He also introduced the speakers of tlie night, President Chase and Governor A.

Christian and Harward, Brunswick dealers in Durham say that they are un able to fill the demand for, the records, because the orders sent to the Bruns wick company could only be filled in part. , They were able to get, only 25 records from an order of 150.

In particular the record "I couldn't hear Nobody pray" was bet ter recorded in tones than any record of any type. Arrangements have been made' to sup ply records at Commencement.

All-State Frosh Team Is Picked By Sports' Scribe ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT BE RETURNED TODAY The Athletic Association an nounces that all athletic equip ment must be turned in today at the Stadium. Officials are anxi ous, to get the equipment stored and checked off the past season, and those to whom such equipment-has been issued are re quested to cooperate with them to that end., '"' Hy J. W, Moobk Another 'collece baseball season has flitted across the horizon of the sporting world and disappeared into the record books. Teams, both good ami bad, have played ot their schedules and are now preparing to disband. This becomes the open season for the shooting of sports writers, for it is at this time that they are called upon to perform the always thankless and often dangerous task of picking "all-state teams. , The abundance of excellent first-year material in the state this year makes it a very perplexing proposition to decide just which man excels in each position. When you sit down and attempt to as semble the stars from several teams into one all-state constellation, you run the double risk of making both mistakes and errors; you may make the mistake of selecting the wrong man for the team or you may make the error of placing the right man in the wrong position. Not having seen all the freshman teams in action, and being loath to risk my immature opinion in such a xlehcate situation, I asked "Runt" Lowe,' coach of the local freshman team an da close stude of tlie game, to make an all-state selection for Tub Tak Hkki- He con sented to do tills, and so I now cheer fully pass tlie buck to Mr. Lowe. First Base ) Carrutliers of Duke, and , Moss of Wake Forest, were the class of the year ling first basemen in the slate. Both of these hoys are big, and give their in fielders a nice target to shoot at on hur ried throw.S. They are both fine fielders, but Moss gets the call over Carrutherii on his ability to hit for distance. , , Second Bate ' At second base the race was not so close as that at first. Tommy Coxe, of Carolina, was easily the outstanding sefr ond sacker of the state. Adams, off Duke, was a clever infielder but he could not cover the ground and hit like Coxe. Short Stop ' , Thewo shortstops of the state that stood out above the field were Satter- field, of Carolina, and Bryan, of Wake Forest. The Little Deacons' short field er can, perhaps, out-hit the Tar Baby star by a few points, but his throw is not so acurate and he does not cover the ground that the Carolina midget does. As shortstop is primarily a defensive position, Satterfield gets the call over Bryan. ' Third Base Ellrrbee, of Wake Forest, and Rowe, of Duke ,were the best of the hot corner guardians. They are both fine ball play ers, but, in my opinion, tlie Wuke'Forest lad excels the Duke star in all round playing ability; so . Ellerbe gets first call. Outfield F.very team in the state seemed to be well equipped with a sef of outfielders that could run, hit and field; so it Is quite a proposition to pick a trio from this crop of stars and say they are tlie best of the lot. In left field, I'd put Finiator, of Carolina, he is an excellent (Continued on page four) Jesus" Heavy Program. ' The University Y. M. C; A. deputation team of twelve men returned to the "Hill" Sunday night after conducting a "Come 'Clean" campaign, and 'giving more than eighty speeches and 40 musi cal programs to the young people and various organizations in Asheville, the largest and most succesful deputation program ever attempted in the state. Full programs were given by the team to approximately 10,000 persons, includ ing 6,000 school children in twelve schools, 2,000 patients at saniitariums' and shut ins, 3,000 Sunday School children, and several hundred business men of Ashe ville.

Pitching what was 'probably his last game in a Carolina' uniform, "Big Bill" Poyner was nicked for eight hits by the State College Wolfpack, and the Tar Heels lost the Tech game by an 8 to 2 margin on Riddick field last Satur day. ..

Three hits, a walk, a hit batsman and an error netted Lowe's boys three more tallies in the fifth. Williams and Elli son singled in succession to start the seventh, and Foard was given a base on balls. Williams scored when Satterfield forced Foard at second, and Ellison brought the last run of the game over the plate a moment later on Flnlator's third hit.
