One gatherer of statistics wishes that he be informed the number of seniors who have made expenses with their invitations. There will be a summer Tar Heel as well as an issue of the Buccaneer for the gal chiles this summer. In the meantime, the Yackety Yack strives to appear annually. The sports writer avers that only red-heads can win the Intramural cup, Red, as a color, is symbolic of danger or heat. But what the hell has heat or danger to do with an athletic cup. Lindbergh, now busy receiving smacks from pretty French women and ovations from the rabble, will be busy for the next few days auto graphing shaving creams, brands of razor blades, hacksaws, et cetera. Ye Pessimist is the man who casually remarks that only those to be rewarded are present at the Annual Awards night exercises. But he seems to be telling the truth. Warning to seniors about to enter the business world: if you should ac cumulate as much as or cer a thous and dollars, do not make a will for fear that your relatives will attempt to prove insanity, and general cussed- ness on you in order to break the instrument. Washington and Lee is planning to build a bridge to the institutions ath letic. A subway is suggested as the best means of convenience in .ap proaching the new Kenan Stadium. Carolinian of N. C. C. W.: "Prob ably the Greensboro Daily News could locate the educational compaign a little nearer home and hold one at Ding, dong bell. The Di's in the well ' The Dialectic Senate lacks either a constitution or an understanding of its existing constitution. Some members of the organization once fondly dreamed of the expulsion of Senator David D. Carroll for a critical editorial which appeared in this papen They had him tried a week ago. Despite the errors of cer tain state newsDaners. the defendant (was not convicted, but acquitted by the failure of the prosecution to ob tain the required two-thirds majority vote. ' . The past Tuesday night saw another ludicrous display of ignorance on the part of the Senate. Senator Carroll (who herewith readily agrees that he should be expelled from the Senate) suddenly sent in his resignation from that organization. Its tone was in tentionally offensive to the austere members. This enraged some of the advocates of senatorial dignity. We hear that they grew red in the face, and shout ed that this demon should be expelled. So despite the fact that Senator Car roll had already renounced his con nection with the Senate, its members stretched their imaginations, consid ered him liable to their actions, and moved for his expulsion ! Aware that the offender could not be expelled law fully at that meeting, the schemers juggled the. words and called expul sion "discharge."- But .on what charge could he be ejected from those halls whence he had already departed? The senators plotted. The room was filled with satellites of bledsoe and kennett, as sembled to manage the latest political contrivance. ' The treasurer had visited the cul prit's rooms the night before and had, for the first time, asked formally for the payment of his annual fees. The senator had signified his willingness to P.ay, but had added that he was then hastening to the awards night 1 ceremony. (He was leaving the room with friends when the treasurer ap peared.) So the collector suggested, but did not demand; that the fees be paid to him immediately before the next meeting. To this Senator Car roll readily assented, and hurried off with his companions. The sudden arrival of a relativt caused Senator Carroll to miss his appointment with Treasurer Gilreath. Indeed, he was unable to attend the executive meeting of the Senate, but carried his resignation to a member of the body in session, telling him why he could not stay and present it himself.-" i- ' All this had happened. . So certain vengeful senators, angered by the resignation, decided to expel the black-sheep for non-payment of dues. The society so voted, 19-3. The more crafty senators duped the rest into voting for this conviction by saying that they were granting Carroll a dis honorable discharge. How generous of the Senate to satisfy his burning desire for dishonor! And thus is added another elephan tine blunder to the rosy record of the Dialectic Senate. These are our rea sons for that statement: 1. The Senator had resigned and repudiated all relationship with the organization before he was "expelled." (Since Carroll's resignation was for gotten in the prosecution of new charges, it is absurb to say that this new action was not equivalent to ex pulsion procedure.) 2. Of more importance he was not guilty of non-payment of dues. After he saw that the appointment with Mr. Gilreath was out of the question, he mailed a chock for the amount to this efficient treasurer despite the fact that he had to con sult the constitution in order to learn the size of the debt The Di Senate presumes that all men sleep as its would-be Shylocks do. 3. Most important of all: If the Di Senate is to expel any member, it must proceed in accordance with its constitution. That document has nothing to say about expulsion, but it is well known from anothef clause and recent experience that such cases shall be governed by Robert's Rules of Order. May we quote that authority? Page 202: "Without his consent 'no member should be tried at the same meeting at which the charges are preferred, excepting when the charges relate to something done at that meeting." Senator Carroll was accused of fi nancial delinquency and tried at the same meeting. And since he was nev er in the hall, it is obvious that he could not have been tried for some thing which he did at that meeting. Besides, non-payment is not an act, but the absence of an act But quot ing further: "The clerk should send the accused a written notice to appear before the society at the time appointed, and should at the same time furnish him with a copy of the charges.' Senator Carroll was not hailed be fore the Senate; he was not given a copy of the charges. We continue to quote the authority which the Sen ate must follow: "After it (the indictment) has been read (at a called trial) and any addi tional evidence that the committee (or accuser) may see fit to introduce, the accused should be allowed to make an explanation and introduce witnesses if he so desires." ' Senator Carroll was never called to his trial; he has never heard the in dictment or the evidence to support the charge of non-payment of dues; he was never allowed to make an ex planation or introduce witnesses. Pitiful Dialectic Senate! A mem ber has offended it, repudiated it, and he scoffs at expulsion. But- the sen ators, unable to interpret their own constitution, think falsely that . the wretch has been expelled. (The in complete Tar Heel account of the af fair was written by the president elect of the Di, whom we have not seen.) ' ' , . 'What do you think of senatorial intelligence? We hope that the Di will see the light someday and spare our funny-bones. . - WHEN PROGRESSIVES WERE FEW ' ' GRADUATE AWARDS ARE ANNOUNCED The graduate school recently an nounced the award of scholarships to the following persons for the year 1927-28: Lorenzo James Bell, A.

' RIFLE CLUB GETS NOTICE Shooting first in a 25-mile wind and then in a steady driz zling rain, George Washington University yesterday won the National Rifle Association inter collegiate service rifle champion ship match at Camp Meade, with a score of" 1,090 points out of a possible 1,200. ' v Syracuse finished second with -,046 points; City College of New York, Team No. 1, third, with 942; University of North Carolina, fourth, 882; while City College of New York, Team No. 2, ran a close fifth with 881. ; The riflemen of North Caro lina University were highly praised by every one present for the grit they displayed in mak ing the trip to Camp Meade. Being given no money by the school for railroad fare and only having sufficient funds in their own pockets for one fare, one man came by train with all the equipment, while the remaining men hiked and "bummed" their way over the three hundred miles of highway that stretches from Chapel Hill. Washington Star. There will be an important meet ing of the Jackson-Macon countv club Friday night'at 9:00 in the club rooms of the Y. M. C. A. It is the final meeting of the year and the elec tion of new officers Is to to taken up. (By R. R. Clark in the Greensboro News) It is well to recall occasionally the forward-looking men, the men of vision and courage, who called for an advance at a time when real progress was something to be hoped for rather than to be realized. It is mentioned of Colbnel Bingham that he was an early advocate of the local tax for schools, of the industrial training of young men, of a state col lege for women, of compulsory educa tion. A few years ago a noted teach er passed in a North Carolina com munity. His ability would have given him a state-wide reputation had not his work been confined to a restricted field. It appeared in his biography that he had championed the establish ment of agricultural schools a score of years before agitation was begun for a state agricultural college. It would be a surprise if these teaching men of vision had not stood for these things rather than a surprise that they did. But when you recall that even up to the time of the state in dustrial college the idea was gener ally prevalent that the three Rs were enough, or more than enough educa tion, for tillers of the soil; that farm ers and mechanics were trained by apprenticeship, ' experience, in the work, and that "book l'arning" for such work was nonsense, the college being intended only for those who es sayed the so-called-learned profes sions, and not for all of that class considering that along with the gen eral poverty of that time, you catch some faint conception of the grandeur of the few progressives of the ancient period who could catch and hold the vision amid their surroundings; and the superb courage that gave it ut terance, knowing that, for the time, it would meet an impregnable wall of prejudice. j " i Taking note of many of the utter ances of the present period and the liberal distribution of honors, one might think that all the progress of the state had its inception within the century.

Epworth League Lawn Party Imported girls, an orchestra, and a quartette will feature the Epworth League lawn party and ice cream sup. per to be given at the Methodist church, lawn, Saturday evening, 5 o'clock, Bob Hardee announced yes.' terday. The entertainment will be free to the guests and patron's and it is hoped that , a record crowd will attend to help pay the expenses of J. Windy Crew, the Epworth League's representative to the Blue Ridge Con ference next month. champions, earnest and zealous, long before automobiles, which hastened the expenditure of millions for good roads, were thought of. It requires neither great vision nor great cour age to champion progressive meas ures that have become popular. The vision and courage were cause for ad miration at a time when the few for ward-looking were regarded as "cranks"'or as impossible idealists, if not as public enemies. They paved the way for modern progressives, made it easy for those who came af ter them; even if many of their bene ficiaries do seem to think that prog ress was born with them. . , GOOD PICTURES, FROM THE FIRST In Brownie snapshots you save the thrill of your holiday fun for enjoyment over and over again.
