Tuesday night in Gerrard Hall
a record number of 33 candi
dates were admitted to member
ship in Phi Beta Kappa, national
scholarship fraternity, with ex
ercises that were most impress
ive in their simplicity Dr. .W.
W. Pierson, professor of history
and government in the Univer
sity, delivered the address that
annually features the initiation
ceremonies.
"There is a rare opportunity
knocking insistently at the door
of the University to build up a
Graduate School of first rank in
the South,", Dr. Pierson declar
ed. "At present there is no first
class school of that sort in
the entire broad expanse be
tween the Potomac and the Rio
Grande, and as a result most
students seeking graduate in
struction are now forced to go
to such institutions as Harvard,
Yale, Columbia, and universities
in the middle and far west for
postgraduate work."
The educational system, from
the primary grades through the
senior year in college and the
graduate" school, is a complete
unit, and the weakness of one
contributes to the breaking down
of the efficiency of all the other
units. Thus the lack of a first
class graduate school handicaps
all the units of the educational
system.
"The University of North Car
olina is in the position to take
the leadership in formation of a
real graduate school in the Old
South," Dr. Pierson said. "The
two institutions in the South
which come nearest to having
graduate school of first, rank, it
can be said without any thought
of disparagement of any others,
are the University of Texas and
the University of North Caro
hna. Carolina has the best li
brary in the Old South, the foun
dations of a first-class Graduate
School already laid, and the re
search" spirit inculcated in its
faculty and students. A school
of the sort that should be
founded comes high in cost, as
first rate equipment and a good,

NEW PLANS LAID
FOR MAGAZINE BY
"BUITGARDNER
Newly. Elected Editor Announc
es Policy for Next Year's
Carolina Magazine; to Be As
sisted by John Marshall and
Byron White, Says White.' C
(By Glenn Holder)
Next year's Carolina Maga
zine, monthly literary publica
tion of the student body of the
University of North Carolina,
will run the gamut of ! literary
endeavor, reflecting in its vari
ety of material a cross-section of
campus life, if the plans of Dil
lard (Bull) Gardner, of Reids
ville, recently elected editor of
the publication, are realized.
We intend to take, the maga
zine down from the pedestal up
on which it has been enshrined
for the past year or two and
make it truly a student publica
tion," Gardner said yesterday.
"Its columns will be open to any
contribution from the students
oi this or other institutions or
from members of the University
faculty, that measures up to a
reasonable standard for college
magazines.
This year the magazine has
been to a large extent made up
of material secured from pro
fessional writers. None of this,
class of material will be secured
in the future, according to the
new editor. . ..
"We do not intend to let the
publication become clannish or
cliquish, as it has been in the
past," he declared. "None of us
claim to be geniuses, andr we
want the students to understand
that the staff is friendly toward
all who are inclined to express
themselves in the magazine and
are receptive toward any con
tributions that measure up to a
reasonable standard.
"The new editors are search
ing for stylists in any particular
class of work, and for variety
above all. The only justifica
tion for the magazine's exis
tence is to provide a laboratory
for literary workers of genuine
ability, and at the same time to
turn out a magazine that will be
readable to the majority of the
campus. If jt ceases to do that
it has no basis for continuing."
A typical issue of the maga
zine will contain three or four
sketches of town life,, factory
workers, country life, or even
character sketches, if they are
cleverly written, a controversial
article or two, and one or more
short stories. The book review
and "Pasture" sections will be
continued as heretofore. A
special effort will be made to en
courage contributions from, oth
er colleges, as well as to get
every man on the campus who
can write to turn in material.
Byron White, of Fayetteville,
announced last night that he and
John Marshall, of Wilmington,
will assist Gardner in editing the
Magazine. ' . :
The Rifle Club will fire the!
government course "D" Satur
day on its range beyond the
country golf course. Those who
make good scores will receive
the army qualification medals to
which their scores entile them.
This is the first time that mem
bers of the local club have tried
for the regular army' shooting
medals which the War Depart
ment gives to members of civi
lian clubs affiliated with the Na
tional Rifle Association.
INFIELD STAR

. -
Henry Satterfield, playing his first
year on the varsity, seems to have
solved the shortstop problem on the
Carolina club. Satterfield has been
covering plenty of territory and play
ing a jam-up game in the short field.
In the game with Wake Forest -he
pulled a scintillating play when he
raced back behind second to scoop
up a hard hit grounder and throw the
man- out at first on a perfect peg.

Southern Prep School Track
Championships -Here Saturday
The first annual Southern Inter-scholastic
Track and Field
Championship Games for pre
paratory schools of the region
covered by the Southern Confer
ence,' sponsored by the Univer
sity of North Carolina and sche
duled for Emerson Feld here
Saturday of this week, bids fair
to be a cinder classic in its in
fancy. Already entry blanks are in
from four of the outstanding
preparatory schools in the dis
trict. Woodberry Forest, Ashe
ville School, Augusta Military
Academy, and Hargrave Mili
tary Institute have entered full
teams in all' events and will
make strong bids for the team
honors. -
' There are still twV days be
fore the entry books close, and
before Thursday night at least
six or seven other schools are
expected to enter contestants in
the big meet. Other schools al
most certain to enter men in
clude Tome School of Maryland,
Virginia Episcopal s School,
Staunton Military Academy,
Fork Union Military Academy,
and Sewanee Prep. It is pos
sible also that Riverside Acad
emy of Gainesville, Ga., may en
ter one or two star men.
Each of these schools will en
ter nien outstanding in their
events, and with the splendid
track and field facilities here,
the records made should com
pare favorably with the nation
al and eastern marks. Many of
the present ranking southern
intercollegiate records have been
made on the Tar Heels' track
here, and experts concede it to
be the fastest one in the South
and one of the fastest in the
country.
The local alumni of the vari
ous schools entered will enter
tain the visiting teams during
their stay here.
TAR BABY NINE
MEETS WOLFLETS
Game Tomorrow Crucial in the
State Frosh Race.
Prospective hosts have, been
putting their heads together, and
now the number of dances sche
duled for this week-end has
reached a grand total of five.
Delta Sigma Phi, Alpha Kappa
Psi, the Senior Class, the Order
of the Grail, and the Woodberry
Forest Club are to contribute to
the hop program.
The Grail dance Saturday
night is to be the last given by
the order during this season, and
the dance committee is making
preparations for a whirl-wind
finish. Special entertainment
will be afforded by the V"Y"
Quartet during, intermission,
and the gym will be decked with
gay streamers and romantic lan
terns. The Buccaneers have
(Continued on page six)
Tomorrow afternoon at four
o'clock the Tar Baby nine will
take on the State college fresh
men for a return engagement.
The last game which was staged
on Riddick field some time ago
was won by the Wolflets 5 to 4.
Since then the Carolina yearlings
have improved and according to
comparative scores the tide
should change.
Bost or Stewart will probably
do mound duty for the Tar Heels
with Hamlet held in reserve.
Captain Maus as usual will be
on the receiving end of the line.
Wall or Adkins, Bunch, Wright
and Jackson will compose the in
field while Sinclair, Stewart,
Mac Manaway, Briles or Collin
will handle the outer garden.
The Tar Babies so far this
season have defeated both Wake
Forest and Davidson fresh but
have suffered losses to Duke and
State frosh. If the Carolinians
are able to cop the game tomor
row they will be able to1 claim
second best fresh team in the
state as the State club has drop
ped , one tilt with the little Dea
cons while the Tar Babies have
won both of theirs.

ELLISON SLATED TO PITCH
Coach Ashmore's Tar Heels
meet the Duke Blue Devils here
this afternoon at four o'clock
in a game which promises to be
the outstanding of the 1927 "Big
Five" engagements, for on it will
practically depend the state
championship. "Red" Ellison is
slated to work on the mound for
Carolina, while Johnson, stiff -arm
hurler of the Duke corps,
will probably pitch for the Blue
Devils.
. Carolina holds the lead over
Duke in the race for the state
title, the Tar Heels having
dropped but' one game to "a "State
Opponent this year while Duke
has lost two. The Carolinians
have broke even with Duke, but
Duke has lost one game to Wake
Forest.
If the Tar Heels win today's
encounter, they will be practi
cally assured of the state title;
while if they lose, Duke and Car
olina will go into a tie for the
lead. Coach Ashmore's men
have but one more game on their
schedule, with State in Raleigh
Saturday afternoon, and in case
of a tie with Duke the outcome
will remain unsettled until after
the game with the Wblfpack.
Coach Ashmore will probably
use the same batting order as in
the Wake Forest game..
Wilson high school, eastern
champion, and Winston-Salem
high school, western champion,
will play the State high school
championship baseball game
here Saturday on Emerson Field
at 2 P.M. .
This game will conclude the
fourteenth annual baseball con

(By Prometheus)
Dave Carrollrenegade Dialec
tic Senator and Ruling Janus of
the Dinamite Senate was cleared
Tuesday night of the irnpeach
ment charges brought against
him by Dialectic Senators Lee
Kennett and Taylor Bledsoe. The
final vote was 16 to 11 in favor
of conviction which fell some
what short of a required two
thirds majority. The prosecu
tion argued -after the count of
votes that a majority could im
peach a man but this was refut
ed by the defense on the grounds
that the Senate had, not decided
before the trial whether a two
thirds or a simple majority
could impeach the defendent.
The By-laws of the Dialectic
Senate -did not cover the case
and Robert's Rule of Order was
referred to by the constitution
committee Wednesday after
noon and it was found that a
two-thirds majority of votes was
necessary for impeachment.
In addition to this discrep
ancy, the Dialectic sergeant-at-arms
had failed to present Mr.
Carroll with indictment . six
days in 'advance of the trial as
set forth in the Dialectic Constitution.-
It is alleged that they
were read to him but the read
ing that Mr. Carroll heard was
not congruous to the indictment
read at the trial Tuesday night.
The defendent was hailed cn
the carpet on a charge of having

All indications are that support
ers of the Wilson and the Win
ston-Salem teams will be on hand
in large numbers at Emerson'

cheer their respective favorites
on in the final game. Prepara
tions are being made for a gala
occasion. .

Inning Rally.
MACKIE ALSO NETS HOMER
Tommy Coxe played "Home
Run Casey" on Emerson Field
yesterday afternoon and drove
out a homerun in the tenth in
ning that broke up a pretty
mound duel between Westmore
land and K. Joyner and gave
Carolina a 3-2 victory over
Wake Forest. It jsvas the final
game with the Deacons and the
Tar Heels' third victory of the
season over the Baptist team.
A ninth inning rally netted
the Deacons two runs and
enough to tie the score and Car
olina narrowly averted a catas
trophe the following frame
when the first two Baptists up
singled in rapid succession, and
were both sacrificed around one '
bag. Westmoreland picked
Riley off third, however, much
to the disgust of the protesting
first sacker, and Satterfield
threw P. Joyner out at first to
retire the side.
Coxe was lead-off man. "Ma
jor" Henderson, genial and port
ly ump, called the first one and
Tommy tightened down on his
bat. "Casey" would have wait
ed on the next strike, but Tom
my wasn't quite so sure of him
self; so the next one being nice
and straight and right down the
alley, he draws back and hits it
right square on the nose into
deep center field, fully as hard as
"Casey" could have done in his
prime. Furches, centerfielder,
made a nice run after the drive,
