We believe that the deans of the different schools could profit greatly by having such groups as that of the Dean of Students. But instead 1 of having the group composed of only intellectuals as Dean Bradshaw has we would mix in a few students who came from the cross-roads schools and who have not found the going so easy here. A cabinet -made up of three students from each class, representing those of high, me dium and low grades, with about three representative students thrown in, would go a long way towards solving many of the problems which confront the un dergraduates,' and aid the dean in removing foibles from his school.

Saturday, February 19, 1927 PARAGRAPHICS The spring supply of misplac ed eyebrows is, copiously filled a little early this year. What has happened to the "Cheerios" .'and their famous leader? Bob Hardee, varsity basketball manager, had to re turn., to his old job the other night in Raleigh and lead cheers As one dean, put it, "'Kike' did great things in the fall, got a sufficient amount of publicity, made Golden Fleece and then quit." INDUSTRY AND EDUCATION une thing the students are justified in kicking about is the fact that professors apparently think that there only two days , in which to give quizzes. Mon- day and Friday are the days, with the larger number of the tests coming on Friday. Many faculty men give these little tor mehters every two weeks and students with four courses often find themselves having to take four quizzes on one day. The time for reviewing has to be di vided and results in the student making lower grades on all of the quizzes, which could be avoided easily by distributing them over the week. What we would like l!o know is, what is wrong with Tuesday, Wednes day, and Thursday? Charges are often made that colleges and universities are places where young men and women spend four years in leis ure, mostly at the expense of the state and philanthropists, since the student pays only about one- fourth of his expenditures. Some people say that this is "dead" expense, as they do not believe that the cost of the student's four years in college is ever re- naid to the state in a material K 1 way. ; ' : Students of the University were fortunate one day recently in hearing Col. Robert Rees, who is assistant vice-president of the American Telephone and Tele graph company, in charge of personnel and educational train ing. Col. Rees told his hearers that education and .industry are inseparably linked together un der present-day conditions and through close cooperation they can be of great benefit to each other and to those whom they serve. He pointed out that a number of the largest concerns in the country have in recent years installed personnel depart ments for selecting college men and giving them specialized training at the expense of the company. Such training, he de clared, is to the advantage of the educational institutions, the students and the industries. He said a number of industries, in eluding his own, are now keep ing careful records of all college graduates, showing past and present records, with the view to answering questions industry is now asking, which gets the prob lem of human relations on scientific basis of selection. The colonel declared that "The in dustries are coming more and more to seek college men for de velopment into executive posi tions." However, there are still some industries which prefer men who have spent their early years in learning the trade rather than in first obtaining a college educa tion. Henry Ford denied his son Edsel the , privilege of a college education. There are many oth er similar cases. Statements from men who have reached such high execu tive positions as that of Col Rees are bound to be the ones that will hold good in the end Editor of Tar Heel: The campus almdst seems to be taking its politics serjously-r- Mr. Carroll very evidently is. AH of which is rather amusing. For college politics is not a seri ous thing, i In a nation the vic tory of a certain party is of in ternational importance. In a college the thing does not even affect the campus itself, much ess anybody else. What Mr. Carroll calls "dirty politics" is undoubtedly correctly . named when it concerns the welfare of nations; but when it is an amus ing game .....? - I actually 'become a little ap prehensive when I think of what might happen if Mr. Carroll could make the University cam pus take itself seriously. Our present officers are almost ig nored. Quite often they are aughed at. Which is an excel ent way to take them. For the student body to take a serious attitude the attitude that1 a citizen might take toward his nation could possibly destroy the wholesome amount of indi viduality for which our school is famed. Politics are brought a hnnt hv covernment and irovern- ment is to govern. May God for bid that any campus government shall ever govern. Lord knows we have too much government already without afflicting our selves with another. Let us have our momentary squabble--for amusementand then . . ... on with the game! D. PIERSON RICKS. The latest name for the Tar Heels is the Pyorrhea Champs. They have won the Southern Championship four out of five times. Dean Bradshaw's unique dis cussion group freshmen is cal culated to do worlds of good. These men discuss problems which the average college stu dent is called upon to solve, and exchange opinions on everything from religion and success in life Many Schools Join Annual Latin Contests The third annual high school Latin contest is to take , place throughout the state on Febru ary 24. A large number of high schools are expected to enroll The following schools have al ready made their applications Roxboro, Wilkesboro, Clarkton Nashville, Davidson, Pomona, Shelby, Statesville, Wilson, Salis bury, Black Creek, Charlotte Sparta, Asheville, Monroe, and Sanford. Probably many more schools will make known their desire to enter the contest before, the twenty-fourth. . ' OPEN FORUM there were no "he-men" in the audience; there were only a few yokels who have not yet thrown off their : pastoral inclinations and a few gentlemen -yea; very few. v."' . ' We surely decry the attitude of a few who "boo" and razz our referees and who insist on yelling during the boxing bouts; now why not try to be men tor a change? How about it, Mr. Dula? Do you say thumbs up or thumbs down? u , , : E. T. WILSON A FRESHMAN GEM Editor of Tar Heel : Now there Is another stain on the garment of Carolina! About the most vulgar and nauseating exhibition of Carolina sports manship ever shown on the cam pus in quite a while was given a representative group of college students at Memorial Hall Mon day night; Not even tolerance, that much lauded virtue, was in attendance. How do we stand now on our superior intellect, our greater abundance of toler ance, our appreciation of the tfood and the beautiful? Where is the University of North Caro lina located at? I have had the opportunity and the privilege of 'attending prize fights, political gatherings, and burlesque shows in some of the largest cities in the country, but never have I seen such an utter lack of gentlemanly con duct, such a complete reversion to imbecility as I saw accorded to a group of young ladies, ar tists in a true sense of the word, rem-esentine one of our sister institutions of learning, Greens boro College. Cheap "wise cracking," moronic laughing at artistic technique, and true lack of appreciation of earnest effort was presented to these girls who must have taken away from the "hill" a considerable amount of repugnance to our university. The audience, so it seemed had as its majority those de praved specimens of humanity whose chief source of diversion lies in their ability to strut be fore "la f emme" like a gobbler, Doubtless, they, received their dates, had their innings with the young ladies, but surely must have left the impression with the girls that K. O. Mencken is not such a pure, unadulterated jack ass after all. Could we not have aided the glee club of a sister institution in a much better way by giving them the attention they were due and the courtesy which the traditions of this uni versity demands? Would it not have been better to have grant ed this than to have given them the supreme, inexplicit felicity of enjoying "dates" with great, big, "he-men" of Carolina? No, N.
