BRILLIANT BALL AT
INN LAST EVENING
Alpha Lambda Tau Fraternity
Dance . Opened Week-end
Social Festivities.
The ballroom of the Carolina
Inn was the scene last night of
one of the most delightful so
cial events of the University's
winter season, when the local
chapter of Alpha Lambda Tau
entertained a host of friends and
alumni members at ,their annual
formal ball. Members of the
fraternity and their guests en
joyed dancing from nine o'clock
until one. '
The ball room was beautifully
decorated in gold and black, the
colors of the fraternity, and fur
nished a charming background
for the festivities of the occa
sion. Music was furnished by
the Carolina Buccaneers and the
musicians kept the crowd pepped
up from beginning to end.
A beautiful feature of the ball
was a number of break dances
for members of Alpha Lambda
Tau, and introduced to the Uni
versity their official Song, "The
Alpha Lambda Tau Rose."
Chapel, which has been sus
pended all this week on account
of bad weather, will reopen
Monday morning' with a speech
from Dr. Chase.

Fraternity Animosity, Liquor and Democracy
Added Zest to Early Campus Political Rule
(Since election time is near and in
terest in politics is high, the Tab Heel
plans to run a , series of articles on
the history of campus politj.es at the
University. The first installment
traces the growth up until 1900. 'As
sources the writer consulted old copies
of the Tab Heel, Yackety Yack, Hel
lenian, White and- Blue, Battle's His
tory of the University, and reminis
cences of Dr. Horace Williams and
Dr. W. S. Bernard.
Following articles will bring the
history up through the present.)
(By Walter Spearman)
Politics rules today much the
same as in the early years of
the University. . Heated cam
paigns in the 80's and 90's told
the same old political stories
that are current today. The
Party in power was made up of
"dirty yellow dogs, who merely
wanted the honor ' of offices"
while the fopposition-was .based
upon "glorious principles' con
ceived.,fbrtheg6bd of the Uii
versity," t
In the history of the Univer
sity there is no record of spirit
d political organizations or
campaigns during the first half
century . of its existence. The
student body was very small;
consequently," the men knew
each other intimately and select
ed their officers more upon merit
than political aspirations.
Kemp P. Battle's History of
the University gives an interest
ing account of the election of
chief marshall for the com
mencement 'of 1848. The two
candidates were Thomas J. Per
son and Bryan Grimes, both of
whom were outstanding men of
the class. However, Grimes'
chances were ruined by the
charge that he was a candidate
of the aristocracy, while Per
son successfully courted - the
democracy. Politics had entered
the lists and along well defined
lines, aristocracy vs. democracy,
which division, carried over , into
the later " struggles - between
fraternity and non-fraternity

After the war the political di
visions were- accentuated as the

Numerous Snow Battles.

ter the tractor plow and old Sol

reign will soon terminate.
The work in progress seemed
to stimulate the efforts of on
lookers to make the best of the
snow, before the city manage
ment had washed it all away.
Thereupon a battle began be
tween students against passers
on the opposite side of the street.
Several students made success
ful targets and a few - conjbat
tants entered the fray, man to
man, giving one another a snow
bath. At one time Bob Hardee
and Grady Pritchard clashed
near Foisters and rolled in the
snow. . . ..
A few delivery cars and mail
trucks have resumed their
duties. . Mail was delayed only
a day and supplies from Durham
are being sent to Chapel Hill."
A few of the marooned vic

Be Hottest Scrap of Year.
(By "Mutt" Evans) -.
"When the irresistible force
meets the immovable object."
The above sentence would
probable serve to more clearly :
express the exact conditions that
will surround the finals of the
state High School basketball
championship to be played on
the floor of the Tin Can tonight
at 8:00 between Durham High
School, champions of the east,
and Asheville High School,
champions of the west.

teams with more enviable rec
ords faced one another in the
final game. Asheville, beyond
;he shadow of a doubt is supreme
in the west. Durham beyond
.the shadow of a doubt is supreme
in the east. Even as early as
twelve months ago, when the
same two teams met on the same
floor on approximately the same
date to settle the same question,
sport dopesters picked them to
again meet in- the finals of the
coming year. There is a certain
