Christmas is coming, ho! ho! ho! hoi
Santa Claus rides over ice and snow.
Yea, verily, the holiday seas
on is fast approaching, and even
the campus begins to show the
signs of Christmas. The out
going mail grows smaller as
each man cuts his list of fern
inine acquaintances as short as
possible. For truly 'tis the seas
on when Merry Christmas means
Mary's Christmas or Sally's or
Betty's or Susie's as the case
may be,
Judicious hints speed home
ward, cleverly and craftily writ
ten, informing fond parents that
a gaily-colored blazer, a new
Tuxedo, or a sport roadster
-would not diminish the joy of
holidays.
In such a season of joy and
general good will this reporter,
finding regular news rather
scarce and realizing that the col
umns of the Tar HEELmust ever
be filled, decided to place before

"The feature of the fall term
that .stands out in my mind is
the amount-of argumentation
that the campus has engaged
in, resident ti. W. Chase said
in chapel yesterday morning,
"Frankly the liberal criticisms
that have been made are of the
lowest order."
"There are -kinds and kinds
of criticism. The lowest sort is
that which directs itself at the
motives and character of its op
ponents instead of at issues.
That is not criticism, but 'bull.'
It is not tolerated in intelligent
communities. The finest loyal
ty may result in criticisnv Love,
esteem and respect may be ex
pressed in criticism that has as
its goal real improvement."
Christmas Festival Friday
A Christmas festival portray
ing the gay Yuletide festivities
of "Merrie Old England" in for
mer days will be presented by
the Chapel Hill High School Fri
day night, December 17, at 8
o'clock. There' will be a series
of folk dances and musical inter
pretations of unusual amateur
quality. "Christmas at the
Manor" is the title of the produc
tion.
The program of folk songs
presented last Thursday evening
in the Playmaker Theatre, un
der the direction of Paul John
Weaver and supported by Nel
son O. Kennedy, pianist, brought
to a fitting close the highly suc
cessful fall season of the Uni
versity Glee Club.
-This delightful evening of vo
cal entertainment began with a
group of old sacred folk songs
of the Netherlands. "Beauti
ful. Savior," a 12th century
hymn of solemn and splendid
reverence was given as a solo by
J. M. Watson, with the muted
voices of the Club accompanying
seniors
in an effect .very similar to that graduating this fall who will
pursue some wont in wnicn

The committee on buildings of
the University's board of trus
tees met this week and chose
a site southwest of the Tin Can
about 500 feet down the ravine
from the site first proposed.
Present at the meeting were
Haywood Parker, John Sprunt
Hill, Felix Harvey, and W. N.
Everett, all of whom are trus
tees ; . President Chase, W. C.
Coker, Charles T. Woollen, and
Dr. Foy Roberson. Dr. Rober
son has been invited to sit with
the committee during the con
sideration of this particular mat
ter. The group walked through
the woods and examined three'
proposed sites ; then they came
back to the President's office in
the South building for their dis
cussion. Operations preliminary to ac
tual construction have already
begun. Surveyors have been at
work mapping the contours and
marking the limits of the play
ing Field and . the concrete
stands. Stakes and blazed trees
indicate the new levels that are
to be established in the middle
of the ravine and along the
hillsides.
"Ready by next Thanksgiving
Day" this is the forecast made
by Charles T. Woollen, graduate
manager of athletics, when he is
asked how long it will take to
complete the job.
Carroll Will Teach
A Special Economics
Class for Seniors
In consideration of
of a great pipe-organ.
Mr. Kennedy, the supporting
pianist, presented two groups of
piano solos. He played Schu
mann's Soaring, a Gavotte by
Levitski, and Brahm's Rhapsody
in G .minor. Mr. Kennedy is
not only a sympathetic accom
panist, but also a pianist of con
siderable technique. With the
exception of the phrasing in the
Schumann number, his modera
tion and urbanity were all that
could be desired. As an encore
he played The Devils Are Amus
ed, a very "ticklish" piece of
realism. t .
Of the 'songs from the Brit
ish Isles, the two most outstand
ing were the rollicking Scotch
"The HundredPipers," and the
elegiac Irish "Lament for Owen
Roe O'Neill." The first two
Finnish songs, "The Poor Little
Girl" and "Lullaby," had an un
dercurrent of strangeness and
charm that contrasted peculiar
ly with the bucolic exuberance
of "I'm Coming Home."
Early Settlers of Alabama, by
E. Saunders, is among the new
additions to the library.
they will need a basic knowledge
in Economics, the Economics de
partment has made preparation
for a separate section in Eco
nomics which will be open only
to seniors. The reason for a
special section is to furnish sen
iors more advanced methods
than are given in classes com
posed, principally of freshmen
and sophomores.
Provided a sufficient number
will register for this course, it
will register for this course, it
ter. Any senior may see Dean
Carroll at his office in Saunders
Hall to signify his intention of
taking the course.
Those who fail to decide on
this course before the holidays
will have a chance to register
at the beginning of the winter
quarter. The amount of inter
est shown now will aid the de
partment in making full prep
arations.
TAR HEELS WIN
LIQUOR DEBATE
Kennett and Noe Withstand At
tack of George Washington
Debaters.
Last Tar Heel
Today's Tar Heel, the Christ
mas number, is the last issue
that will be published until af
ter the Christmas holidays.
(By Thad M. Reece)
In the first forensic clash of
the year held Thursday night
before a small and interested
audience in Gerrard Hall, North
Carolina, represented by Ralph
W, Noe and Lee B. Kennett, af
firmative contenders, received
the majority of the votes of the
listeners over their negative op
ponents, Edward Gallagher and
J. H. W. Vesey of George Wash
ington University in a sharp dis
cussion of the query: Resolved,
that the Volestead Act should be
modified so as to permit the use
of light wines and beers.
Dr. J. E. Woodhouse, presid
ing over the debate, took a vote
of those present before the dis
cussion. The results were : fav
oring the affirmative, 9 ; negative
39. He again took a vote at the
close of the argument, finding
that 14 had changed opinion,
five going to the negative side
while nine changed to the affirm- "
ative point of view, thus giving
Carolina the victory. . ..
Noe of North Carolina was the
first speaker of the evening. He
welcomed the visitors from the
capitol city before turning to his
discussion. "Something must.be
done." the speaker asserted,
there must be a golden mean
between such extreme measures
as the Volstead Act and the wets
like Al Smith."
Edward Gallagher, of George
Washington, in opening the neg
ative discussion, made the state-
