The great success of the first games
gives promise of a great meet next

meet on account of the short notice
given them have already signified
their intention to enter next year's
games.
An added feature of the meet was

stiff battle from start to finish and
crossed the tape in 2 minutes and
4.2 seconds. ;

Keep Dancers Busy.
High School Circus
Was Grand Success
Parade and Shows Amuse Students
and Townspeople Saturday
Evening.
The Chapel Hill High School. put
on a circus Saturday night from six
thirty to ten o'clock at the high school
building. The pupils and faculty
staged a parade at six-thirty Satur
day afternoon. The parade was the
outstanding feature of the circus,
which consisted of floats, clowns, anir
mals, bands and majiy other interest
ing features. The blase college stu
dents were surprised and delighted
when they Baw such a parade Satur
day evening.
The high school students sold re
freshments at the school building. The
main program consisted of an oper
etta "Fairyland" given by the pri
mary grades. After this performance
the numerous side-shows attracted the
crowd. Approximately six hundred
and seventy-five happy and noisy
men, women, and children were
Present at the circus. It was indeed
a colorful occasion, with its barkers
f the sideshows, the moving crowds',
the gay-colored clowns and the joyous
noises in general. According to the
report of Mr. L. R. Sides, Superinten
dent of the high school, the circus re
ceipts were around $126.
Prizes were given by the local mer
chants for the best clown best ide
how, and oher things.
Saturday night will surely be a
memorable occasion, for at that time
there were more dances than "'have
ever taken place on the campus dur
ing the course of one evening. Four
hops were crowded into the six short
hours between six o'clock and the mid
night hour.
The entertainment was begun at
six o'clock by the Woodberry Forest
Club's dance at the Carolina Inn, and
the Theta Chi shag at their home in
Fraternity Court. The former was
given in honor of the Woodberry For
est track team, which was here on that
date taking part in the ' Southern
Preparatory School track meet, and
the ballroom was decorated in Wood
berry Forest colors, orange and black.
The Buccaneers played, and there
were solo dances for students ' and
alumni of the "prep" school.
The music for the Theta Chi dance
was furnished by Kike Kyser and his
Orchestra. ' The house was decorated
in Carolina colors" and in the colors '
of Theta Chi, red and white. Punch i
was served on the porch. Both - if
these 'dances were rather slow in
starting, but the crowds soon gath
ered, and the fears of the hosts as to
the successes of their hops were al
layed. At nine o'clock Kike's Orchestra
moved to the Inn to start the Alpha
Kappa Psi dance, and the Buccaneers
repaired from there to Bynum Gym
nasium to play for the Grail affair.
The trippers of the light fantastic
divided their numbers about evenly,
and both of these later dances were
very enjoyable.
The Alpha Kappa Psi hops began
shortly after nine o'clock, and the
closing hour came all too soon. An
illuminated Alpha Kappa Psi crest
was placed on one side of the ball
room, and punch was served directly
beneath. Solo dances were given for
members of the fraternity.
The Grail dance, the last of the
year, got under way simultaneously
with the fraternity affair. The gym
was decorated with streamers of vari
ous colors, and the Y Quartet afford
ed entertainment during intermission.
There were solo dances for the mem
bers of the visiting track teams and
for the initiates of Golden Fleece and
of Phi Beta Kappa. i

- Misses Virginia Parks and Pattie
Morgan spent the week-end at Miss
Morgan's home in Wilson.
William Augustus Winston' of Wen
dell, N. C, at one time a student of
the University of North Carolina gets
credit for teaching Capt. Charles A,
Lindbergh, who last week, made the
spectacular trans-oceanic flight, the
rudiments of aviation.
Winston was born at the ancestral
Winston home near Wendell 31 years
ago. He went to Wake Forest for two
years before coming to the Univer
sity in 1916. He came to the Univer
sity with the intention of studying
medicine, but after staying in Chap
el Hill for two years the World War
broke out and he left the study of
medicine and hied himself over to Ra
leigh where he applied for admittance
into the naval aviation corps, but he
was turned down, and at the Army
recruiting office the same thing hap
pened. He was very small and failed
to favorably impress the examiners,
but these first two interviews did not
discourage him so he went to the
Army office at Greensboro and here
he .was admitted. He learned flying
himself and was sent to Brooks Field,
Texas, as flying instructor.
Brooks field is the elementary school
for fledgling flyers, and it was here
that he had as his pupil young Lind
bergh.1 Winston remembers very lit
tle about Lindbergh, or he is too mod
est to venture forth with any reminis
cences of the now famous, flyer, but
Oliver Smith, himself a wearer of the
D. S..C. for bravery in France and
one of Winston's friends tells that
during the progress of Lindbergh's
flight he was playing golf with Win
ston and the facts came out
Winston holds quite a few records
himself. Aviation experts doubt .if
his record of nearly 4,000 hours in the
air has been excelled, most army fliers
making only 600 hours a year if they
are lucky. He taught advanced flying
at Carlstrom Field in Florida and
while there flew over the entire state
photographing and mapping landing
fields. During the Sesqui-Centennial,
Winston piloted a big Fokker between
the national capital and the . airline
terminals. , This was a . difficult job
and it was accomplished with con
siderable credit for the flier.

Box in Durham City
Auditorium.
K. O. Warren' will box Len Hoffman,
heavyweight fighter from Charlotte,

weight battlers in the South.

vices to , help the American Legion.

ent' to see Warren in action.

Last night in Memorial Hall stu
dents doing outstanding work in the
various phases of athletics and extra
curricular activities this year were
accorded recognition in the annual
awards night exercises, which have
become one of the University's most
honored traditions.
Addison E. "K. O." Warren, of Ed
ward, was awarded the Patterson
Memorial medal for the most out
standing athlete in the University.
Dr. Frank Graham, of the History
Department, who made the presenta
tion speech, characterized Warren as
a "tackle, wrestler, boxer and gentle
man, who packs a mighty wallop in
either hand and always plays the
game fairly." Warren is National
Amateur Lightheavyweight boxing
champion, and was captain of -the
University boxing team this year. He
was also a member of the wrestling
team and tackle on the football team.
The Norris Cup for the man most
outstanding in athletics, character and
scholarship was awarded to M. D.
"Red" Whisnant, of Morganton. Whis
nant was this year's captain of the
football team. He was also a pitcher
on the varsity baseball team.
. President Chase made the chief ad
dress of the evening. "Throughout
the annals of history men have been
awarded by their fellows when they
have done something worthy of rec
ognition," he said. "There is a thrill .
in witnessing and awarding cleancut
achievement in whatever field the ac
tivity lies. It is fitting that out
standing work in all activities at the
University be given fitting recogni
tion in this public fashion tonight."
Sidney Chappell, retiring president
of the student body, presided over the
exercises. A lamentably small crowd,
consisting almost entirely of the men
who were to receive prizes or re
wards,, was on hand when the assem- '
blage was called to order by President .
Chappell. R. A. Fetzer, Head of Ath
letics in the University, who awarded
the athletic monograms and numerals,
decried this fact in his presentation
speech. While he, offered the prox
imity of examinations and the heat
wave as possible extenuating factors,
he declared that there was no excuse
for the apparent lack of interest ex
hibited by the students, in the 'exer
cises, which mark the culmination and
public recognition of outstanding stu
dent work in all extra-curricular ac
tivities during the year.
The cups awarded annually by the
Order of the Grail for the best Intra
mural athlete and the best Freshman
athlete, scholar and citizen were to
K. B. (Red) Raper, of Welcome, and
R. L. Zealy, of Goldsboro, respective
