WESTMORELAND PITCHES Allowed Christians Only Six Hits But Elonites Bunched Four In Sixth . to-Score Four Runs. LOCAL TEACHERS TO BE HONORED Drs. Wilson and Coker Lecture in Baltimore. AT HOPKIN CELEBRATION Dr. Edwin Greenlaw Is Also Speaker on Program. ; A signal honor has been conferred upon two of the University's faculty members, Dr. W. C. Coker and Dr. II. V. Wilson. These two men have been invited tf deliver addresses at the fiftieth anniversary celebration of Johns Hopkins Un'versity, which is to be held at Johns Hopkins October 22-23, 1926. On Friday morning, October 22, there will be commemorative exercises and addresses of welcome. That afternoon there will be Departmental Conferences; and at the joint session of the Depart ments of Zoology, Botany, and Plant Physiology, the program reads thus: "Addresses by H. V. Wilson, Ross G. Harrison, W. C. Coker, and others." The fact that of the three leading science speakers on the program two of them are from the University of North Carolina is worthy of due recognition and is indeed a great honor for Caro lina and for her professors represented. Dr. Wilson received his Ph. D. degree from Johns Hopkins in 1888. Since that time he has made extensive investigations and classifications of sponges, coelen terates, and lower vertebrates and has been a contributor to parlous biological journals. His address at Johns Hopkins will be on some phase of "Sponges." Dr. Coker is an eminent .biologist and is- the author of numerous Dooks and re ports, including a volume - on . "The Trees of North Carolina." The Arbore tum and the beautiful grounds of the University are due largely to the inter est and work of Dr., Coker. His sub ject at the anniversary celebration will probably be "Reproductive Functions of the Higher Mushrooms." . Dr. Edwin Greenlaw, who", was , Dean of the Graduate School at the University, of North Carolina last year, Is also on the program. He is to lead the "Confer ence on the Higher Study of English in America.". r CHAUTAUQUA DIRECTOR VISITS CHAPEL HILL ON WEEK-END Miss Mary B. Brent a director of the Radcliffe Chautauqua of Washington, D. C visited Chapel Hill this week-end. Her circuit is now playing through North Carolina on a tour fcetween Flori da and the New England States. Two University students were con nected with this company last season in the position of Tent Managers. They are J. W. Harden,, of Graham and J. F. Scott of Black Creek. Both of them are juniors. After holding the Elon Christians scoreless for five innings, "Lefty" Westmoreland lost his horse shoe on Comer fied last Tuesday in the sixth frame and the Christians annexed their second victory from Coach Duke Dun can's cohorts by a 5 to 2 count. The Christians bunched four hits and coupled them with a free pass in the sixth inning to count for four runs. Westmoreland was jerked in the next inning in favor of Odell Supp after he hud issued two free passes and Sapp held the Christians hitless for the remainder of the affair. Foglemnn, who hurled for the Chris tians, pitched one, of the best games of the year.' He allowed the Tar Heels eight bingles, but kept those well scat tered. He only walked one man, and retired one Tar Heel batter by the strike out route. It was the big port sider's last game in the Christian uni form, he having received his sheepskin that morning, while Lindley and H. Crutchfield, the keystone sack combina tion, also were playing for their last time in the Christian name. H. Crutchfield garnered the fielding honors of the day when he accepted nine hard chances without a bobble. He roumed far and wide back of the ini tial and keystone sack's and gathered in rollers that seemed labeled sure hits. He also obtained a bingle which figured in the Christian scoring' in the sixth frame. Carolina scored first in the fourth inning. Hatly and Maekie singled. Foglenian walked Young, filling the bases, and Webb drove out a two bagger, the-only extra base hit of the afternoon, for two runs. A double play retired the side without further scoring, and after that the visitors did not threaten except in the. ninth when they succeeded in placing a man on first and third. Westmoreland had gone good for the Tar Heels, allowing the Elonites only two hits until- the sixth when the Christians pounded out four runs. Braxton and Sims singled and "Tobe" Crutchfield drove them in with a single to center. Westmoreland walked Shep herd and Fogleman's hit, which bounded over Finley's head, sent Shepherd and Crutchfield across. Elon scored again in the seventh on two free passes and a fielder's choice. 131st Commencement Program Comes on Week-End of June 4-7 Booloo Club Announces New Members; List On Patterson Drug Store Window The Imperial Order of Boolnos has an nounced the selection of its new members by posting a notice in the front window of Patterson'sDrug Store.

The con ference is open to any member, of the faculty or any student whom the Uni versity "Y" is willing to sign up, For the past four years Carolina has led the South in attendance at the Blue Ridge Conference. The largest delega tion that ever attended the conference from any school was the one from Caro lina three years ago when fifty-two men from the University registered as dele gates. Georgia Tech has run close to first place, but her delegation has never exceeded forty-two men in any one year. The University of Georgia, V.

This institute is said to he the first of its kind to be held in this country. It is organized on a plan somewhat similar toi the Chautauqua, combining instruc tive courses and wholesome entertain ment especially for the adults of North Carolina. The mornings will be devoted to lectures and classroom work; the af ternoons, to practical demonstrations, field work, botanical trips, games, hikes, arid swimming; the evenings to moving pictures, Illustrated education! and re ligious lectures, and socials. The Institute will open on Monday, ugust 28. Courses are to he offered in the School of Citizenship, the School of Recreation and Physical Education, and the fifth annual Coaching School. Addi tional schools will be added In the future if they seem to be needed. The greater part of the attendance at the Institute will probably come from college alumni, recreational and social workers, school superintendents, principals and teach ers, high school and prepatory school coaches, and others, and especially in terested In community and school af fairs. . :.' The purpose of this Institute is to broaden the University's program of adult education and to continue to ren der "maximum service to all people all the time". No credit is given for the work done except that a certificate will be given to those who attend two Institutes and com pletes four courses in one of the schools. Class attendance will not be compul sory, the instructors will not ask ques tions, and there will be no examinations required. The lecture and class discus sion plan will be used.
