Verbal Sword and Are Struggling Valiantly to Capture Spoils of Freshman Class; Soda Fountains and Shows Enjoy Good Business. o (By W. L. Marshall) The Pan-Hellenic war is on! Greek warriors, exulting in the strife, are wielding the verbal sword with all their might and are vaguely strug gling to carry off the spoils. t Shortly after sun-set the cohorts gather on the'field of battle and map out their campaigns for the evening's contest. Groups of three or four fellow-tribesmen are seen in conference, excitedly whispering in low tones. The combatants then drift nonchalantly to the appointed meeting places, and be fore many more grains of sand have fallen, the nightly battle begins. The bewildered frosh, cause of this strife, begin to appear, smiling nevolently and greeting their would conquerors with polite salutations. Tte Greek chiefs immediately pounce spon their victims and invite them ta Partake of the cup of friendship' at DRUNKARDS SEEK NEW BOOTLEGGER FOLLOWING RAID Over 125 Gallons of Elicit Whis key Confiscated at Place of "Sheriff" Lloyd. 1 ' Chapel Hill's supply of corn whiskey was cut short for the week-end when Officer Sloan, assisted br three ether officers, raided the resi dence and premises of "Sheriff" Geeter Lloyd, a white man, near the town Friday evening, capturing about one hundred and twenty-five gallons of the illicit beverage in the barn of the Lloyds. " Officer Sloan received a "tip" some time Friday and immediately went to visit the Lloyd place. The elder gen tleman, father of "Sheriff" Lloyd, told the officers that they would, find sone whiskey in the barn loft, and that was all there was on the premises. The officers searched the barn and pourned -out about thirty gallons which they were told was alL Af ter continuing the search for a few minutes the officers found another barrel and yet another, both fulL Ap proximately 125 gallons of corn was confiscated. - The officers declare this to be the largest whiskey raid in the history of Chapel HilL They also declare the Grail dance Saturday" night wasone of the quietest in the history of the GraiL Frat men are now running helter-scelter trying to locate a new bootlegger. Town sots are standing around street corners with a doleful look on their countenances. Several prominent citizens were heard to re mark that "someone gave the Lloyds a rotten deal by "squealing." The reaF law-abiding citizens of Chapel Hill, including even the ministers, are possessing a look of triumph and re lief. The younger Lloyd was taken into custody, only to be released later under a thousand dollar- bond, ,,Xhe elder Lloyd, about seventy-five years old, was told to report Monday for preliminary hearing. The son as sumed all responsibility for possession of the long-cherished beverage. The officers have suspected the parties of bootlegging for some time but have heretofore been unable to get any definite information on the subject. Officer Sloan expressed the belief that the whiskey was not man ufactured by the Lloyds, but was im ported from above Hillsboro. Readers must take care not to be come confused between the bootleg ger "Sheriff" Lloyd and officer Sher iff Lloyd of Orange county. The of ficers say they are not even brothers. Chemistry. Students and Faculty Meet Annual Get-Together and Feed Held Last Friday Evening. The annual get-together and feed for the chemistry students and fac ulty was held in Venable Hall last Friday evening. .Several members ox the department made short talks wel coming the new students and explain ing the vastness of the field of chem istry. Refreshments consisting of sandwiches of various sorts, drinks, and cigarettes was served. the well-known fountain. After the consumption of many sodas the clans and their hopefuls move on in the pursuit of further pleasure. The "Pis" and the Carolina fling out their invitations. The fav ored ones choose, and after seeing a show for the third or fourth time the armies proceed to their respective rendezvous. Here the frosh are made to feel at home, and impressed with the wonder ful bondage of friendship and con geniality within the clans. When a brotherly atmosphere has been estab lished, the battle-scarred veterans be gin to "feel out" the newcomers and explain in detail the high and mighty throne of their tribe. The eulogies over, hearty hand-shakes are freely distributed, and the session adjourns. The frosh gTope their way to their abodes, and the Hellenes tarn to their all-important pursuit of the classics. TENNESSEE Elvin Butcher, star pivot man of the University of Tennessee and dubbed by many southern sports scribes as "the greatest center in Dixie," proved to be the big gun in the play of his team here last Saturday. On the offensive, Butcher failed to commit any butchery, for there he came in direct opposition to Harry Schwartz, but when on the defensive the brilliant Volunteer was all there. In fact he was too much there for the good of the Tar Heel cause. His particular forte j seemed to be magnetic hands that attracted all the Carolina . passes. He intercepted no less than four Tar Heel heaves at various times during the fray. GRAIL DANCE IS UP TO STANDARD Many Gentlemen Present, but Girls Scarce; Decorations Featured. . The Grail dance last Saturday eve ning in Bynum Gymnasium was typi cal of the majority of hops given by that order. The floor was crowded with stags, and there were few girls in attendance. The Buccaneer orchestra furnished music for the shag and did all in their power to enliven the dancing. The members of the Carolina football team and their conquerors from the state beyond the mountains were hon ored with no-break dances, and the hosts also enjoyed solo terpsichores. The gym was attractively decorated with streamers and colored lights. The limitation of stags was found necessary, and consequently many tardy "trippers of the light fantostic" were refused admittance. No frosh were allowed to dance or spectate. CAMPUS DAMAGED BY SEVERE STORM Merchants Do Big Business as Professors Are Faced With Small Class Attendance. The campus was literally covered yesterday afternoon by limbs and twigs from the giant Oaks about the University grounds as a result of the severe rain and wind storm which raged at frequent intervals through out the day. About noon? the wind twisted the top out of the big oak tree at the southwest corner of Old East building. The tree was twisted in two about 20 feet from the ground A number of rain spouts were blown off the side of Memorial Hall and into the street. Other trees, were twisted and minor damage done. Several students are suffering from swollen heads as a result of being hit by falling acorns. At a late hour in the afternoon no further damage to University build ings or the surrounding country had been reported. Local boot and slicker dealers had a "run" on the wet weather apparel and it was understood that a number of the stores had sold but their entire stock of this line of goods. Shoe re pair shops were working overtime to keep the extra work from piling up on them. Despite the inclement weather, few professors treated their classes to a "grat." However, a noted decrease was seen in class attendance through out the day and it is assumed that a large number of juniors and seniors took advantage of the optional class attendance which they have. Members of the faculty who desire to play tennis on the courts in Battle Grove are invited to communicate with R. A. McPheeters. . Miss Maude Lee returned to Winston-Salem on Sunday afternoon after making a short visit to her mother, 'Irs. I. F.- Lee.

The Dinamite Senate meets tonight ! ' Yes, 'tis true. The reporter ob tained this delicious morsel of news from the Ruling Janus himself, Dave Carroll. That worthy, roused from a deep sleep caused by the use of opium, told a lurid tale of the terrorism which the Dinamiters will inaugurate a gainst their imitators, the Dialectic Senate. The Dinamite Senate was organized last spring in answer to a demand for a lodge which would embody the: virtues of the other 405 organizations on the campus and none of their faults. Since then it has been fam ous, receiving telegrams from nation ally known celebrities who wished to be associated with the good work of the group. The members stand for free speech, free pressing free air, and eloquence. They also stand on their constitutional rights. They are agin fees, fines, and dues. Their col ors are pink and blue. It is a good lodge. . The reporter was unable to secure a satisfactory seance with the Janus. However, Hap Whitaker, his room mate, was authorized to act as at torney in the epoch-making interview. "The first explosion of the year will be dedicated to the burial of the cam pus, which has been dead lo, these many months, stated the astute young attorney. He went further to say that it was thought that a notable of the Dinamite Senate who had spent the summer in New York City had organized a chapter at Columbia Uni ef . Heels y BLIND PREACHER BEGM MEETING HERE TOMORROW Atlanta Man to Conduct Series of Services at the Baptist" Church. Tomorrow night at the Chapel Hill Baptist church Dr. Louis B. Warren, blind evangelist of Atlanta, will open a series of evangelistic services that will continue through the next week. Services will be held twice daily, at three o'clock in the afternoon and seven forty-five in the evening. Five years before he became blind, Dr. Warren was told by physicians that he would lose his eyesight iri a short while. He started to fit him self for his incapacity, "so that I might be as much like the person who has good eyesight, and not a blue, hopeless wreck of a man with a little card 'Please Help the Blind pinned upon my coat," as he expresses it. He learned whole chapters of the Bible, and fitted himself , for service as an evangelist in other ways. Today Dr. Warren is rated as one of the South's most effective preach ers, and Dr. Olive, pastor of the local church, stated last night that he felt that his church was extremely for tunate in securing Mr. Warren for the services.

However, it developed that Ikey Cohen, who was to have been president of the northern branch left the city without paying the tuition fee of ten dollars to the local representa tive. Therefore, the Dinamite, Sen ate had put Columbia University on the black list and will resist unto death all its overtures for member ship. - , Petitions from Dartmouth College and the University of Pennsylvania will be considered at the meeting to- ( night. However, the immediate cause for the assembly of the Dinamiters is that a certain official of the Univer sity, now traveling abroad, has cabled home and asked that the Dinamite Senate take care of his school for boys during his absence. 7 Another matter to be discussed to night is the election of new members, which was postponed from the spring, tra la.

Enemy Team Works Effectively Against Passes; Tar Heels Play Great Defensive Game Despite Loss; Students Sup port Team. A powerful, golden-jerseyed eleven from the University of Tennessee came out of the west last Saturday afternoon and soundly trounced the Tar Heels on Emerson Field by a 25 to D -score. They earned this, sweeping victory over a North Caro lina, eleven that was outplayed, but not outfought- The Heels just fell before the onsloughts of a superior team in a game that was settled on the fortunes of the air. The Volunteers rode to victory, on the wings of forward passes, for such heaves, either completed or intercept ed counted heavily in every score Throughout the first quarter the Vols highly praised backs failed to pene trate a stubborn Carolina defense, and that opening period ended with the teams deadlocked in a scoreless tie. .The Scoring Near the middle of the second quar ter the knot was cut, and the Vols pushed over for their first score. Homer carried the ball over on a smashing drive off -tackle after two long passes had carried the ball to the very shadow of the Tar Heel gtal, Baybee drop-kicked the point, and the teams retired for another kick-off. Three minutes later Derryberry snatched down a short pass from Furches on the fifty yard line and -dashed fifty yards behind a perfect screen of interference for the sec ond touchdown. Try for point failed. Tennessee's other scores came in the last half, one touchdown in e3.ch period of play. A thirty yard pass from ,.Witt to Tudor placed the ball on the Tar Heel fifteen yard line, and four line plays- enabled Horner to plunge off -tackle for the score.
