PARAGRAPHICS
CAROLINA
CLAWS!
CLIPPED CAT'S
Another way of looking at it is that
probably the reason for the adverse
season is that the team wanted to
play in the new stadium all the time.
Well, they , had plenty of hay
spread around the edge of the field
for the use, one wag declared, of .the
'four horsemen.'
Seeing as how they must sell about
half the store buildings in Chapel
Hill, we are glad the sale comes be
fore the Thanksgiving game. Remem
ber Shelby, Montana?
Add to gestures of possible presi
dential candidates, Senator Borah's
speech on prohibition enforcement in
New York.
Since Mr. Mouzon has set the state
right on the position of Methodist in
regards to tobacco and cigarettes, we
suppose the Bishop has the correct
sense of "proportion" now.
One Baltimore spouse went forth
to end it all by jumping in the lake.
On seeing the cold water she decided
differently. A plain case of getting
cold feet, we calls it.
"College Instruction In Love Is Ad
vocated," headlines a daily. Well,
what do' they think we have that big
flower garden behind Spencer build
ing for?
We learn that politics cause Prince
Carol to leave Rumania. The same
thing has recently caused several
Mexican leaders to leave the world.
TWO MORE WINS COMPLETE
SEASON -
There is no greater satisfaction to
be experienced by one than that which
comes when success is realized in the
face of odds and predictions of .fail
ure. For five games the Tar Heels
went forth with well wishes for vic
tory. Five times they returned with
the small end of the score.
But look you at the Saturday game !
After the meeting of the student body
in Memorial Hall, Friday evening, the
team had to win. Never before has
a pep meeting that gave more fight
and determination to win been held
than that of last week. A new team
went on the field to face Davidson;
a student body that was all for vic
tory and supported the team to the
last line occupied the seats in the
stadium. It was truly an appropriate
manner in which to 'open the Kenan
Memorial stadium. There is a uni
versal feeling among the student
body that we had a real football team.
That feeling now becomes a convic
tion. Nothing remains now but to
take the other two games ' on the
schedule. The Tar Heels have found
themselves, and the student body is
expecting the team to acquit itself in
just as a commendable fashion as they
did Saturday. If there has been a
feeling among the team that they
were outclassed, that they had the
weaker team, that they "lacked the
necessary punch," that feeling should
be forgotten.
Now that the Tar Heels have over
come the inferiority complex, we are
expecting them to give us " two more
victories !
OPEN FORUM
DEFENDS NAME
The Editor:
Saturday's issue of the TAR HEEL
carried an open forum by one person
signing himself as N M. In this
scintillating opus, the writer presum
ed creatlv; or he has been grossly
misinformed. Out eminent journa
list, Mr. Joe Mitchell, dramatic, art,
and musical critic is not areviewer
of publications. That is, he did not
review the' first issue of the Carolina
Magazine. However, he is reyeiwing
that worthy comic, the Buccaneer, of
which I happen to be the luckless edi
tor. It was I and not Mr. Mitchelf
who reviewed the first issue of the
Magazine so to me goes the blame and
condemnation for that bit of writing
which was so illy perpetrated. Mr,
Mitchell should not be censored for
something that he did not do. Per
haps I was unfortunate in choosing
Prometheus as a pen-name, though
what connection that cognomen has
in -common with Mr. Mitchell is be
yond my powers of perception. I had
not intended to expose my pseudonym
but it would have been known before
the week was over anyway.
I have not seen Mr. Mitchell but
imagine that he is as much incensed
over the confusion of names as I. In
passing I might say that I am truly
repentant that I am not so adept at
handling words as my predecessor,
R. K. Fowler. Perhaps it is my con
stant association with him that has
brought about this unfortunate cir
cumstance. '
Again the TAR HEEL cannot be
blamed for-printing faulty sentences
Copy is copy and must be followed
Had the proof-reader almighty pow
er to correct awkward sentences, he
would have changed the first sentence
in the third paragraph of Mr. N, M.'s
letter. :

CONCERNING REVIEWS
Editor of Tar Heel:
I went to see The Kalif of Kavak
Wednesday night. I sat in the midst
of a small, but fairly representative
audience, which, judging from its out
ward demonstrations, seemed to en
joy the performance perhaps not so
much as I did, but. noticeably, any
way. Fleft Memorial Hall in a hap
py mood and unhappy error! I told
a few of my acquaintance that the
show had .been good that the boys
and all concerned deserved applause
for reviving the Wigue and Masque
oh, I said too much.
Imagine my embarrassment, when
I picked up the TAR HEEL Satur
day morning, on finding that my con
clusions were all too hasty; that my
judgement was all too childlike.
The eminent critic whose experience
and renown entitle him to lead opinion
on this Campus, tells me that the
show was a flop, and many other
things. I perused his article hastily
and bowed my head in shame. For,
how can I face those few who know
that I got pleasure from the show
those to whom I spoke before I knew
what was what?
TAR HEEL, is it possible to tem
per the expert criticisms that you
give us in your learned sheets, that
we of the less outstanding mentali
ties can lose our illusions a bit more
gradually, and that those who en
deavor to nourish the dramatic im
pulse in this University need not feel
that their efforts must be prefaced
by an apology?

After Victory- Peace
After watching Carolina pile up
that 27 to 0 score against Davidson
Saturday, we almost feel inclined to
join the Cheerios and mingle our
voice with that of the multitude in a
paean of praise. It was certainly a
welcome victory, and comes at a most
opportune time to hush the voices of
criticism and protest which were be
ginning to make themselves heard.
Nothing is so effective in satisfying
a student body as a good victory.
And Now Harvard
At the same time .,' comes the an-
Random Thrusts
By
nouncement that next year Carolina
will meet Harvard on the gridiron.
Another victory or so this season will
make us feel fully able, to cope with
some of the larger Northern teams
even though we be defeated by every
small college in North Carolina!
Who Said Politics?
So far this year the cry of "dirty
politics" has scarcely been heard on
this campus. Other campuses, how
ever, seem to be struggling with that
problem. The Daily Student, college
newspaper of the University of In
diana, in. trying to clean up politics on
the campus made the following dis
coveries known to the student body:
"1, Nine of twelve signatures on a
nominating petition were forgeries.
2. Check of credits of all candidates
indicated that three were not mem
bers of the classes in which they
sought office.
3. Several persons obtained twelve
signatures to a list of candidates for
freshman offices, then erased the
names of the nominees and substitut
ed a new list.
4. Women voters were coerced into
voting for particular tickets by
threats of exclusion from various ac
tivities."
Let us be thankful that such con
ditions do not exist here and let us
see to it that no such tactics shall
ever be used ! ,
A Colorful Appearance
The second issue of the Buccaneer
has x made its appearance with a
black-and-white cover and a liberal
supply of purple ink throughout. With
its noticeable improvement in art
work and in general make-up this
year's Buccaneer bids fair to surpass
any previous attempts.
Give Us Trees
The Chapel Hill board of aldermen
announces that more trees are to be
set out on Franklin avenue. How
ever pleased we may be with all this
new paving, we are certainly glad
that sidewalkss are not to take the

Great achievements in engineering are
brought about by the harmonious work
of many. The individual's largest
opportunity comes through the excercise
of his own creative talents in the field
for which he is preeminently prepared.

THE larger a hotel, the larger
loom the difficulties of ven
tilating it; of handling the
crowds that ride its elevators.
The larger, too, looms the in
terest of engineers in designing
electrical equipment to .meet such
unprecedented de
mands, of salesmen
in selling it, of serv
ice engineers in
like to consider it were it bereft of its
trees. ' .
v Pretty Pictures,
The Yackety Yack progresses as all
the seniors have' their pictures talen.
Now that the absurdity of -write-ups
has been removed perhaps the next
move will be to cut out the pictures.
For after all, so few Yackety Yack
pictures are true resemblances. The
victim of the picture aiways thinks
his own picture fails to do him jus
tice and everyone else always con
siders it complimentary!
' Gossip Of The Times
; In these days when so many girls
are letting their bobbed hair grow
out again, they seem to find it neces
sary to perfect an evening coiffeur
with a bit of borrowed, hair. And we
hear that it is now the custom when
returning home from a dance for the
girl to give over to her escort for safe
keeping not only her vanity case and
lipstick, but also her extra .- hair.
How embarrassing if part, of it were
left in the young gentleman's pocket!
Gone But Not Forgotten
And now we understand that the
Pickwick Theatre has closed its doors.
Alas, that such an established. Caro
lina institution should fall into the
limbo, of the past and be unknown to
the coming generation of students !
Nights of care-free peanut throwing
and joyous shouting as some picture
flashed upon the screen may not be
an orthodox part of a college educa
tion, but surely they form an unfor
gettable part of our college memo
ries ! .
Thanksgiving and Then
Thanksgiving Day is some ten days
off, but already for several weeks
every available room at the Carolina
Inn and at. all the private homes in
Chapel Hill has been engaged. Re
turning alumni . and other visitors
may have to sleep around . the old
well if they expect to remain on the
Hill for the night. Thanksgiving
Day will certainly be the climax of
the season. After that everything

Experience Insures Goodi Workmanship
IT takes a lot of practice to develop the technique for
good shoe repairing. It takes a lot of experience to
obtain the skill for doing the job right. Mr. Pendergraft,
the manager o the Uni
versity Shoe Shop has
repaired the shoes of
Carolina students for the
past twelve years. He
knows what college boys
want, and gives them the
service
which they
re-
quire.
