Wood Stanford University is starting new way ot selecting toot ball cap- tains. Abolition of active captains has been, effected and hereafter the coaches will appoint an active field captain for each contest. An lion orary captain 'will be named at the end of the season. Randolph-Macon is said to be the only college in the south that allows the coach to ap point team captains. It is believed that the Stanford system will be sue fcessful, because it will .give the coach es more freedom in the selection of men to play in each particular game. After a player is selected he may go into a slump. As a result, the team benefits little by his leadershipp, and in some cases actually suffers, tlue to the justifiable hesitation on the part of a coache to "bench" the cap tain of his squad.

Thursda, May 27, 1926 PARAGRAPHICS The records that were made bv the University Glee Club on the New York trip have arrived and are prov ing to be quite popular. ."Hark the Sound" is especially clear fand audi hie. A ban has been placed on rouge and powder in the swimming pool at the University of Oklamhoma. J ack Sparrow might take notice since he has recently opened his popular pool for the summer. Surely Mr. Woollen will send Galen Elliott to Chicago in June to enter the National A. A. U. meet. By virtue of his setting a national mark in the one mile run, "the youth ful harrier has won the right to rep resent the University in the big meet. Speaking about selling real es tate, the Chapel Hill Weekly, in telling about free trips from Chapel Hill to Morehead Bluffs, says "nor body is under obligations to buy the Bluffs." Maybe not, but the inves ligators had better be careful or they will he bluffed into buying bluff. . What sounds more like local con ditions.js the story that comes from the School of Business Administra tion of the U. of P., where it is re ported that an instructor, returning after a three day's absence, was con fronted with an empty room and had lo spend a number of days collect ing his class members before he could resume hostilities. ' More honor has been conferred on the University and its faculty in the selection of Dr. H. V.' Wilson and Dr. W. C. Coker as two of the prin cipal speakers for the fiftieth anni versary celebration of Johns Hop kins Universityj which will be held next fall in Baltimore. Dr. Edwin Greenlaw, former dean of the Gradu ate School here, will take the lead in one of the conferences. Latin students in a class at the University of Pittsburg recently re- CONCERNING CONTINUING ... With the approach of another va- cation r-a cyclic time in everyone's collegiate career the pertinent ques tion concerning the future and feas- ability of Continuing college prepar ation is raised by the majority of the undergraduates. Some are planning to go the higher notch next year with attending high hopes'; some stand on an islet of inexplicability and plan less future7 with no definite plans; and some others have alreadv de cided as to next year and are rais ing thanks to sublimated sources that their days here are numbered, f What may be the percentage of undergraduates in either of the three classes, the Tar Heel knows not'. But to those in the two latter classes, this exhortation is written. Cffheerning statistics and the esti mates of the value of a college edu cation, we have them in superabund ance and . their endless recitation wearies all. However, tor its own intrinsic value we state here that the latest estimation of the value of a college education fixes the. figures at 72,000 estimated after a careful study of the comparative earning capacities of college men and those who aren't college trained. The abi lity of college men to cash in on the estimated value of urely individual. The figure is given merely to con fute the cry so often sent forth to the effect that practical experience is' the only geniune form of educa tion and preparation for life. Yet we do not decry the value of practi cal experience? college training, and then practical experpience, in what ever field chosen. It is of general acceptance that a college trained in dividual outranks in ultimate ability those who have not had such training. j. As to a college education being regarded by many as fashionable and a social asset, -we neither deny nor offer apologies. Nor is it denied that a . vast number of high school graduates look to college as "the only place to go." And why shouldn't they ?; Consider ' the average high school graduation exercises: an anx ious audience with hushed admira tion for the youthful graduates sit ting on the rostrum of the auditorium with the conventional class motto, What Next, lettered in blaring words above their heads, and Senator Fuk minatus exhorting them to do Great Things. (To be satirical or facetious here is not intended, but we only wish to picture the familiar scene.) The high school graduate decides that he needs a, four-year sojourn at the U. in order to step to the great things. And he is Tight. A col lege education is generally recog nized as the best means of prepara tion that can Jje had." ' : In these last hurried days, bleary eyed undergraduates might well rest their crammed braines for the mo ment and ponder on the challenge that is being' made them. Progres sive North Carolina and the world woefully needs trained men. To morrowtrained or untrained we, he younger generation, are the actors The Blue Ridge-Student Confer ence is fast coming to be a real field of research on all phases and depart ments of southern college life. Op portunities in this line for any man keenly interested in any phase of college life are unlimited. '; When we remember that practically one hundred colleges and 'universities are represented there by carefully select ed men and that for ten davs thev ar4 together with many hours of time each day for unscheduled social intercourse between delegates, we can readily see what opportunity there would be of investigating any one interest of ours as said interest is be ing expressed on these many campus es, ror instance, if editor of our college paper wishes an exceptionally rich line of experience and observa tion regarding the records and poli cies, etc., of college papers else where, what greater asset to his next year's work could he find than that of rubbing shoulders with editors and other college leaders at Blue Ridge in order to learn all details regarding publications in seventy-five other col leges? And so it would run of any other activitiy regardless of what it may be. Ample time is provided conference schedule at LAST MEETING OF "Y" CABINET HELD Crissman Reports on Bue Ridge Conference Reg- ' istration. outside of . Blue Ridge in order that individuals and groups may exchange ideas and experiences along lines of their va ried interests. It would be quite interesting to any Carolina man to inquire of Jack Alsbrook just what Blue; Ridge meant to him the year rcceeding his presidency of the stu dent body. He knew he was to be president of the council the next year nd so ran a survey regarding stu dent government in the different col leges that were represented at Blue Ridge. Jack said his experience arid information gathered in this way was tower of strength for his next year' work. Not only was Jack there but Bill Gwyrin, Ludlow Rogers, , and many others who have been directly or indirectly responsible for Caro lina's prize-winning honor ' system. So we would suggest that you give your most careful thought to this particular angle of Blue Ridge op portunities. Whether you are inter ested in athletics, literary societies, publications, Y. M. C. A., fraterni ties or what not, go to Blue Ridge and fill your note book' with a real survey, of your particular interest as it is found expressed on other campuses in the southland and it will help you more than any one thing to think through to a successful year in theaffairs and details of your ac tivity work. There is only one con dition placed upon those who go as delegates to this conference and that is that they must agree to follow through with real interest and faith fully support the-regular conference program throughout the ten days ; for, in fact, most of this program is a direct feature of the greater efficien cy of each and every college activi ty. Think it over. H. F. Comer REPORT ASHEVILLE TRIP Style of Freshman. Handbook Is Al tered and Enlarged. The final meeting of the year of the Y. M. (I A, cabinet was held Monday night in the Y. M. C A.and good re ports were given of 1 recent work. For the remaining part of the year, the Cabi net will concentrate all efforts on - the campaign to secure a large delegation from Carolina for the Southern Student Conference at Blue Ridge, June 15-24. Walter Crissman stated that more than twenty students have definitely de cided to attend the Blue Ridge Confer ence, and that this number should be in creased this week. Reports from cabi net members concerning their activity in connection with the conference campaign indicated much progress. The Freshman Handbook for next year will be published by the "Y" in the form of a desk copy, six by nine inches,' and will "carry much more information and neiptui instructions for. the flrst year men than in previous years, stated Kil lian Harwick, editor-in-chief of the 1926 Handbook. Barwick also stated that in the enlarged edition it will be possible to use many more cuts in connection with the activities than formerly, and that the publication will cost one-half as much as usual. The change in the handbook for next year will be the greatest' change made in fifteen years. . ' .',. Mr. Comer and the members of the deputation team to Asheville gave re ports of their trip and programs in Asheville, and stated that over 80 speeches and 40 musical programs were given by the team to more than 10,000 persons, most of whom were young peo ple.- It was reported that several invita tions for a, return trip, next year were received by the team and that definite arrangements have been made to send a team to Asheville next year under the auspices of the Asheville Y. M. C A. Over $200 have been pledged by citi- ens of Asheville to cover expenses of the proposed trip. The Carolina Y. M. C A. in response to seven calls, will send a deputation team to Asheville from the Blue Ridge Conference in June. OPEN FORUM Eiiitokof Tar Hekl: ' ' ' When a man becomes the most hon ored, among his fellowmen, does he need campaign uianagers to impress his stand ing? If: the man has made himself the most outstanding on . college campus should his . position be recognized only after a few of his "friends" have can vased In his behalf? Should politics de cide merit? - It seems that the above three ques tions were answered affirmatively in' the recent election to decide the owner of the Davie Cup. . Certain rooms In the dorms were canvased for votes.' If this is how the "best all 'round Carolina man" is to be selected in the future, I suggest do ing away with the title. GRUMMAN MAKES TRIP FOR EXTENSION DIVISION R. M. Crumnian, of the Extension Di vision of the. University of North Caro lina, is visiting Charlotte and Salisbury this week in connection with the work of his department concerning special courses in medicine which are to be held this summer in certain North Carolina com munities under the auspices of the Exten sion Division.
