Extension Division To
Offer Foreign Tours
The University Extension Di
vision plans to add a new activ.
ity to its already long list of
functions. This is the inaugu
ration of a series of ' Foreign
Study Tours under the auspices
f the Division. .
The University faculty recent
ly voted its approval of the re
iwrt of the Committee on For
eign Study, authorizing the or
ganization of . foreign study
tturs. German , and French
residential tours will be offered
ext summer and will be con
ducted by the Extension Divi

members of the faculty. All the
details of the plan have not yet
keen worked out but will be pre
sented to the University as soon

Morehead Not Yet
Football Captain
As the State Papers Proclaim.
The report which has been
heralded by several of the state
papers to. the effect that Gar
ret Morehead has been elected
to captain next year's football
team has been branded as a
gross mis-statement and entirely
without foundation.
It is not known where the
state papers got the news, or
rather the rumor, that the team
assembled immediately after the
Virginia game and elected More
head captain. Whoever circu
lated the report that such

pected to be quite 'interesting

action was taken has aroused
the severe disapproval of all
University athletic authorities.
Many of the players who were
asked the truth of the rumor de
nied it most emphatically.
The news has been particular
ly embarrassing to Garrett
Morehead, who desires that the
mis-statement be corrected at
once.
"The game on Saturday; will
bring to a close the thirteenth
annual state high school football
championship contest, since the
annual gridiron contests were
inaugurated in 1913. Thirty
eight high schools entered , the
contest five weeks ago, these be
ing divided into four eastern
groups and four western groups.

: The current issue of the Caro
lina Magazine amply ' justifies
the editorial policy of publish
ing work other than that of stu
dents. Supper for the Dead, by
Paul Green is alone compensa
tion for the strangled local tal
ent, and the latent very latent
genius slifled through lack of
opportunity. It is very nice to
sweat blood in order to get
enough student contributions to
fill the space between advertise
ments, to have the result seen by
about one hundred people jani
tors included and to get only
the sad, sweet thought that ev
ery student able to handle a
typewriter has been forced into
print. But it must be conceded
that the editor, , In publishing
only meritorious student contri
butions, and giving his readers
really good material from out
side sources, has more nearly
fulfilled his obligations.

"FRANCE LOOKS ON AMERICA AS
AN UPSTART, FLOWING IN WEALTH"
Says J. C. Lyons in Expressing His Opinion on Gallic Attitude
Towards United States Dey, Krumpelman, and Staab
also Describe True Stand of Frenchmen. '
i (By Joe Block)
We Americans love to admit
that we can never hope to fully
comprehend the Frenchman. It
is our custom to let the matter
drop with this conclusion and
not even to attempt at feebly un
derstanding that nation with
whom the future by necessity
will find us so related. Amer
icans who have never been to
France are apt to have a thor
oughly tabulated set of convic
tions on the ideals and, more of
ten, morals of the Latin ; the
latter culled usually from the
sprightly experiences of the
doughboy. We, however, must
consider that even our (. heroic
lads are permitted by human na
ture t6 add touches of color to a
dismal reality to get', the unde
niable thrill of shocking nice
people. It is very easy for us to
think with patriotic fervor that
such an immoral, godless race is
trying to put something over on
us in this debt question. We
dumbly and blindly agree that
she should pay every cent.
Four gentlemen of the facul
ty, who were fortunate enough
to have spent the past summer
abroad, were accosted by the re
porter for some natural color on
the French attitude towards the
United States. Happily, the
teachers selected were profes
sors of foreign languages and
not particularly interested in the
dull and abstruse economic de
vices of the debt. By their long
association and almost kinship,
two of the men admit slight
prejudices for the French but, of
course, they would attempt to
view the matter impersonally
The two others, teachers of
Spanish and German, spent but
a little time in Paris, long
enough, however, to have dis
tinct reactions.
We must attach interest to
these opinions as being the re
actions of unusually sensitive
and impressible . minds. The
teacher of a foreign language,

Chapel Hill, Dec. 1. The Uni
versity of North Carolina foot-
ball squad fared well at the
hands of the pickers , of the
1926 mythical All-Elevens, for
nine members of the Tar Heel
squad were honored once or more
by the grid experts in their lists
of All-State N and All-Southern
teams. These statistics were
taken from a total of sixteen
teams, chosen by nine sports
writers and seven coaches, These
sixteen picks were in turn con
solidated into two composite
teams of those chosen by the
coaches and those by the writ
ers, Many of the pickers awarded
four Tar Heel stars places on
their teams, while virtually all
of them gave at least three posi
tions to Carolina men. The com
posite eleven chosen by the
coaches of the state ' included
Captain Whisnant, Morehead,
Schwartz and McMurray. Two
of that quartet received enough
votes to give them places on the
composite pick of the sports
scribes. That pair were
Schwartz, at center, and More-
head, at tackle.
The other Tar Heels honored
once or more were Warren, tac
kle; Lipscomb, center; Shuler,
guard ; Young, halfback ; and
McPherson, halfback. Captain
Whisnant received honorable
mention on ' the All-Southern
eleven named by the Associated
Press. .. .
Actual figures show that Uni
versity players were named for
37 positions out of a possible 176
places on the sixteen teams.
That is a splendid record con
sidering that the field for choice
included Bix squads of from
thirty to' fifty men each.

A bill favoring the National
Defense Act and the policy of
the C. M. T.tC's. was the subject
for interesting discussion at the
meeting of the Phi Assembly,
Tuesday night. It was found
necessary, due to lack of time
and its alleged deserving inter
est, to table this resolution.
Mr. Whitley introduced the
bill with a general history of the
training camps, their work and
aims. It was stated that they ,
are an upshot of the War draft
in which such an alarming num
ber of men were discovored
physically unfit for military ser
vice. The speaker also remark
ed that such training would not
instill into young America the
fighting spirit but rather intro
duce him to the horrors of War.
Mr. Kyser reviewed his long ex
perience in these camps and" felt
that an excellent study of citi
zenship and a sense of discipline
were' among the many benefits ,
derived Mr. Crew observed
that the world has not reached
the stage when arbitration and
confederations of men can set
tle wars, therefore he sees the
necessity for some kind of mili
tary preparedness.
Mr. Hardee in opposing the
resolution felt that the United
States should not sponsor a
movement to train men for fu
ture wars. The C. M. T. C.
keeps alive unconsciously the
spark of militarism, the speak
er said. It was also feared that
America's growing interest in
military jpreparedness can cause
only unfriendly rivalry among
European nations. Mr. Parker
contributed the idea that the ed
ucated man does not think of
physical combat but favors a
jettlement of the conflict by reas
on. Education can repress the
fighting instinct, '
A resolution was introduced
by Mr. Johnston for an abbrevi
ated and simplified system of
spelling and pronunciation. The
many benefits of such a system
in commercial transactions were
opposed by its degrading effect
on literature. The vote of the
society disfavored the bill.
There will be a smoker at the
next and final meeting of the
quarter when also the Intra-society
freshman debate and the
election of officers will be held.
All members are urged to be
present at this most important
meeting.
Speaker Warren read a letter
of acknowledgement from Mr.
Kenan for the resolution of
thanks tendered him by the Assembly.
