V; Elgin, of Charlotte, was elected, to captain and manager of the team next seasfln. Elgin pluyed on the Varsity all fhis year as number two man, and has figured iii all of the Caro lina victories. He won the state high school singles championship In 1923 for the Goldsboro high school. By virtue of his outstand ing achievements on the freshmen, teum of' 192-1, he wus elected captain of that team. Besides being an excellent player with a varied method of attack, Elgin has the added advantage of being a southpaw. Many players say that it is awkward to them to pluy opposite a left handed man, and they will often forget themselves and pluy his strong side instead of his weak side.

Order of Gimghouls Have Traditional Pile of Rocks Transformed Into Massive Seat at Piney Prospect. Use Classified Ad. Section of The Tar Heel and f?ct results. The Freshman Rock Pile is no longer a shapeless mass of stones. ln its place stands a massive stone seat, built by the order of the Gimghouls as a memorial to the late ex-president Kemp Plummer Battle. 1 ' '' The seat, in the form of a semi-circle with the opening toward the valley, is enclosed by a wall about six feet high made of rough stones gathered from the sides of the hill. The work was done by the Valdesiuns, who have just completed Gimghoul Lodge. On the inner surface of the wall, just ubove the middle of the seat, is to be placed a bronze memorial tablet. : ' ' , The original name of the hill upon which' this seat is built was Point Pros pect, but it has become changed to Piney Prospect because of the abundance of pine trees. , .Wheb. Dr. Battle was president of the University, he liked to. visit the hill in his walks, and it was he who first started guthering together the loose stones which later grew into such a huge pile. He asked every student' who went out there on his afternoon walks to add a stone to the pile, which thus becune a mute wit ness to the thousands of pleasant ram bles which the students took through the woods in order to get the extensive view. The tradition has changed slightly, and the idea was handed down that only freshmen were expected to enlarge the pile, which for years has been known as the .Freshman Rock Pile. The Gimghouls, who now own the property,-were unwilling to use the stones in the building of their new castle, but were also unwilling to leave them in a shapeless masshence the new memorial seat, which it is hoped will minister to the pleasure and comfort of many gen erations of college students and will keep alive the memory of -Dr. Buttle, after whom Battle Park was named. Dr. Battle was a great nature-lover, and spent many hours weekly cutting out new trails, building bridges, and making the Park accessible to the publiic. it's like this- Mere quantity in eating counts for little.
