' three State championships in athletics
' this year in football, wrestling, and
track, and had won two Southern con
ference titles. "But this doesn't mean

record." ; .:; '.'

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.

Outfielder Chosen by His Teammates
for Position Tuesday Team
Loses Only Two Men.
At a meeting held last Tuesday
afternoon, the Tar Heel baseball squad
elected "Kirby" Hatley, diminutive cen
ter gardener on the Ducanite aggrega
tion, -as captain of the nine for next
year. ,
Hntley's election for the captainship
of the Tar Heels came as no large sur
prise to those . who have followed the
baseball activities to any extent. Hatley
has been the. outstanding outfielder in
the state this year, and more than likely
will be the unanimous pick of all sports
scrlbos for a berth on the All-State
mythical nine. lie is one of tlie fastest
and most consistent .fielders that has
even been produced at Carolina, and is
a heavy hitter and a fine base-runner.
His election as pilot for the Tar Heel
squad next year is merely a reward for
the excellent playing which he has ex

UNIQUE INSTITUTE
TO BE HELD HERE
Extension Division Will Con
; duct "Summer Institute."
TO CONVENE TWO WEEKS
The program of the Carolina Y. M. C. Florida,
A. for this year will be , brought to a
close with a final campaign this week
and next week for the largest delegation
from Carolina tu the thirty-five an-! during the last four years. Already
Vanderbllt, Tennessee, and
Clemson rank next highest )n enrollment
of . delegates. A total of 170 men have
attended Blue Ridge from Carolina
nual Southern Student Conference at
Blue Ridge, June 15-21., than to any
previous conference meet, and all ef
forts of the cabinet members will be
concentrated towards this end. 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. P, I.,
half the usual number of Carolina dele
gates have definitely decided to attend
this year, and It is the aim of the Y. M.
C. A. to send even a larger number in
June than before.
The Name
The term Blue Ridge. s the name of
the place of assembly, but It has become
identified with the Southern Student
Conference to the extent that the con
ference is known as Blue Ridge Con
ference. This conference has been meet
ing annually at some point in the South
sinci1892, but It wus not until 1912 that
it moved Into Its own home, namely, the
present Blue Ridge grounds, where the
conference has met every year since that
time. Dun rig these thirty-five years a

Organization Will Be Similar To That
5 of Chautauqua Plan.
:A new feature of the work of tlie
University Extension Division is embod
ied in the plans for holding a unique
"summer institute" here at Chapel Hill
this summer. .'. .
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.
Ten dolars covers the tuition for all
courses and programs and reserves u
room in the University dormitories. A
sjiecial dormitory is to be reserved for
families.
