Technical "K. O's." While
Warren Applies Sop
' orific Sock.
VIRGINIANS SCORE ONCE
- Carolina's boxing team liter
ally smothered the V. P. I. ring
artists under an avalanche of
blows for a 5 to 1 win in the Tin
Can Saturday night. ' With the
exception of two bouts, a draw
. and a decision to V. P. I., the
Tar Heels had everything their
way. Russell and Captain Shu
ford gathered in two technical
knockouts and "K. 0." Warren
lived up to his name by stretch
ing his man on the floor in the
second round, - ! ,
Ern Carpenter started things
off for the home club by getting
a decision over Ruiz, of V. P. I.
This scrappy little Philipino is a
cousin of the late Pancho Villo,
former Flyweight champion of
the world, and received part of
his training from him. "
V. P. I. evened the scoring in
the featherweight class when
Cardillo got the judges' decision
over Matheson.
The lightweight bout was the
most dramatic of all. It was
almost like Kit Guard in some
of his escapades or Charles Ray
in "Scrap Iron." Russell was
knocked through the ropes by
- the V., ILL fighter with the first
blow passed, but came hack to
win the bout "by a technical
knock-out.
V. P. I. forfeited the welter
weight bout to Carolina on ac
. count of Pettey not being able to
get down to weight. '
Charlie Brown fought Captain
Esleek, of V. P. I., four rounds
to a draw in the middleweight
division. .
"K. Q." Warren won his bout
in the first minute of the second
round by a knock-out.
Captain Shuford won his first
fight of the season with a tech
nical knock-out over Jones, of
the Techmen, in the first round.
WINTER FOOTBALL
PRACTICE BEGINS
Grid Candidates Start Training To
morrow -75 Uniforms Issued.
Moth balls have been cast a
side, and musty, rusty football
uniforms extracted from hidden
corners and brought out jnto the
sunlight as a result of the issu
ance of a call for winter football
practice to start tomorrow. Over
seventy-five uniforms were is
sued to prospective candidates
Monday and Tuesday, and many
more may be issued after the
first practice.
Coaches Collins and Cerney
are back on the hill ' and are
eager to start the ball rolling at
once. It is expected that the
first few days will be devoted to
setting up exercises, and that it
will be quite a while before any
strenuous work is undertaken.
The Tar Heels are not the on
ly college in the state which has
deemed it advisable to start win
ter practice so early. Davidson's
call was answered by over one
hundred candidates, and Coach
Tilson has stated that winter
practice at the Presbyterian in
stitution will last for two
months.
We democrats don't care how
this Republican administration
goes. 4own in history, just so it
goes downi El Paso Times. ,

COMER DECRIES
INDIFFERENCE TO
WORLD AFFAIRS
Y. M. C. A, Secretary Urges At
tendance of Discussion
Group Meetings In
. .. Chapel Talk.
GROUPS MEET WEEKLY
Pointing out the lack of knowl
edge of world affairs common a
mong the college students of to
day, H. F. Comer, secretary of
the University "Y," in chapel
yesterday morning urged every
student to attend the dormitory
group discussion meetings,
which will be resumed for the
winter quarter tomorrow night
at 9:00. A study of important
current events is planned as
part- of the program at all of
these meetings.
Mr. Comer cited several news
items of recent world importance
that are unknown to most stu
dents. He expressed the opinion
that to be really educated a man
hould have at least sufficient
knowledge of current affairs to
enable him to discuss them in
telligently.
The faculty members did not
escape Mr. Comer's accusation of
indifference to current events.
'Last week I asked three profes
sors questions about recent e-
vents of the greatest import
ance, which were given a large
amount of space in the. papers,
and they were unable to answer
any of them," he stated. "Their
excuse was the typical Ameri
can one that they . were too
busy to keep up with the news."
At present the fad is not to
become interested in anything
according to Mr, Comer. He at
tacked this craze, and urged all
thinking 'students to constantly
keep in touch with and thus be
come interested in the important
events of the day.
Mr. Comer called attention to
the series of articles which is to
appear in the Tab Heel during
;he next two weeks on tne dis
cussion groups and v the world
events that they take up. ,
The Fayetteville Club picture
will be made at the Old Well dur
ing Chapel Period tomorrow
morning. . Every member of the
Club is requested to be present.
CHASE GOES TO

RALEIGH TODAY
He and Woollen Appear Before
Appropriations Committees
for University. "
MAKE NO STATEMENT
President H. W. .Chase arid
Business Manager C. T. Woollen
will present the case of the Uni
versity this afternoon, after .. a
meeting of the' University trus
tees before a joint session of the
appropriations committees of
the house and senate of the leg
islature. Although no state
ments have been made by the
officials for the press, many ru
mors as to their requests and
assignments to be presented are
being circulated, ;'':'
Last fall the University sub
mitted a request for appropria
tions amounting to $4,640,000
for maintenance, which totals
$2,950,000. .. -
It has been predicted that the
officials will ask, for an-increase
in the maintenance f und eith
er by increased appropriations
or a reduction of the permanent
j j : H
iuna ior permanent improve
ments. ' i ' V''1"-' '
A story in the Greensboro
Daily News yesterday is of the
opinion that, although increased
appropriations may be asked
for, the thing that will be press
ed most is the demand for $650,
000 for a new library instead of
the $500,000 stipulation limit in
the governor's budget bill. It is
believed that the committees will
be requested to leave the matter
of spending the appropriations
to the discretion of the Univer
sity officials. -

EVOLUTION IS THE MILLENNIAL HOPE
OF MANKIND, SAYS DR. HENDERSON
Speaking Upon His Interpretation of God, He Declares Science and
Religion Need Not Conflict Warns Against Mater
ialism and Arrogance.
o
Believing that "both science
and religion can play, creative
roles in the cosmic drama of
creative progress without con
flicting or trenching upon each
other's particular function," Dr.
Archibald Henderson opened
the second of a series of lectures
on the interpretation of God in
the Methodist Church last Sun
day evening.
"It is the role of science," Dr.
Henderson believes, "to discover
and disclose the secrets of the
physical world and to bring a
bout the progressive enrichment
of human life and the develop
ment of the human race. It is
the role of religion to impart to
mankind a living sense of moral
and aesthetic values and to in
spire the individual with a sense
of the immediacy of God, not as
an absentee Diety but as a prime
mover in the ongoing creative
process." He believes that evo-
ution is the millennial hope of
mankind. -
While all great religious revo
utions have been intimately as
sociated with a change in man's
conception of the cosmos, .Dr.
Henderson believes that science
and religion are two separate
fields and that with "true wis
dom and just discrimination" the
Christian church will leave those
matters which are purely scien
tific in the domain . of science
where . they primarily belong.
The remarkable discoveries
which science has unrolled in
the last few years has done much
to increase man's faith in the ex
istence of a God- the Master
Scientist. ''.' : ' . f
Evolution, the speaker be
lieves, has not only revolutioniz
ed the whole thinking of man
kind about life and the cosmos
but it has also revolutionized the
thinking of mankind about God.
"I know of no discovery of a
great tenable and workable
scientific hypothesis which has
been such a clarifying and bene
ficial influence in enhancing our
notion of the significance and
role of the Creator. Evolution
gives us a new faith and a new
hope."
Dr. Henderson declared that
whether we reach the goal in our
search for God is not the point;
"the reward lies in the romance
of the adventure, the thrill of
the search. Every thinking
being, whether he is aware of it
or not, is constantly seeking af
ter God.
"A sense of the immediacy of
God is a continuous element in
my consciousness. Everything
points unmistakably to a Crea
tor in whom we live and have our
being and with whom we can
co-operate in carrying out the
divine purpose.". A sense of the
superiority of God to his crea
tion and a sense of His love are
two more elements in the con
sciousness of the speaker. -He
sees in God the -"vital urge, the
life force, the creator and the
supreme poet."
In conclusion Dr. Henderson
sounded a warning that with all
the "richness of its inventions
and the miracles of its discovery
science must avoid the danger of
a -tendency toward materialism

THREE DANCES
CAP WEEK-END'S
SOCIAL AFFAIRS
Large Number of Out-of-Town
Girls and Buccaneers Fea
ture Grail Hop.
ATTENDANCES ARE LARGE
Theta Chi "Twilight" and D. K,
E. Dances Also Were Re
. ported Great Successes.
A week-end flooded with a de
luge of social activities which
began with the Junior Prom Fri
day night and culminated in a.
veritable whirl, totaling three
dances Saturday evening, is how
a thing of the past. The Ju
niors, setting an enviable pace at
their affair ushered in a series of -
dances that mark the opening of
the winter social' season last
week-end as a distinct success.
The Theta Chi, Grail, and D. K.
E. dances brought a brilliant cli- '
max to the inauguration of the
new year socials. The girls,
who came to the Hill for the
week-end to grace the affairs
with their presence, were a col
lection that would do honor to
the most brilliant of University
functions. A large and repre
sentative crowd of damsels be
gan to descend upon us Friday
afternoon and by the climax of '
the events Saturday, the num-
ber had increased to even great
er proportions. The girls have
gone away. The social calendar
has disposed of its-heavily bur
dened schedule. The socially in
clined are suffering the after-effects
of a strenuous season. The
drab duties of every day again
call and "it's all over now but the
shouting."
The Grail iiance
The Order of the Grail opened
its program for the winter quar-,
ter Saturday night with a high
ly successful dance in Bynum
Gymnasium.
An unusually large number of
out-of-town girls and especially
good music by the Carolina Buc
caneers were the primary fac
tors which contributed to the en
joyment of the evening. The
Buccaneers, making their first
appearance at a Grail dance,
proved their ability to put out a
high grade of dance music and
the twelve o'clock closing time
brought to the dancers the reali
zation that another first class or
chestra is functioning in our
midst. Although the floor of the
