The Frosh have two games parallelling the varsity en counters meeting the young Deacons tonight in Raleigh and entertaining Fremont High School, Champions of the Peanut Exposition, as a prelimin ary to the Cavalier-Tar Heel clash Monday night. Last year Wake Forest won the first game from Carolina, after stag ing a great rally in the last half of the game. However, the Tar Heels turned the Deacons back in Raleigh in the second encounter. Dowtin and . Captain James, high scorers of the state last year, will match their scoring ability with Satterfield, Van story, and Hackney of s the Carolina team in the City Auditorium tonight. Wake Forest has met State twice this winter, . the first game requiring an extra quarter before State emerged winners 41-39, but the Red Terrors had an easier time in the second con test winning 48-41. The starting line-up for the Deacons will probably be the same as they used against State with Captain James and Pas chal at the forward positions, Dowtin at center, and Owen and Carter at the guard posts. Coach Ashmore is likely to use either Vanstory or Pur ser at center, Satterfield and Hackney or Vanstory at forward, and Dodderer and Captain Morris at the guard posi tions. Virginia has played five games to- date, but have met only, one Southern Conference team, Kentucky falling before their attack early this week Coach "Pop" Lannigan is bringing a squad of nine players into the Caro linas this week-end to play South (Continued on page four) Nelson O.

WRESTLERS MEET CONCORD YMCAi Open Season in Tin Can To night ; Complete Schedule Announced. LEADERS ELECTED FOR JUNIOR PROM 1 - Bill Marshall to Lead Annual Affair, Assisted by Ellison and Spearman. Bill Marshall, from Wadesboro, was chosen by the Junior Class, at a smoker given at Swain Hall Wednes day night, to be leader at the annual Junior Prom to take place about two weeks before the spring holidays. Red Ellison, President of the Junior Class, was chosen to be first assistant, and Walter Spearman was chosen as the second assistant. .The election was marked by hot competition, sev eral votes having to be taken to de cide the winner. The smoker was very informal, and a lack of parlia mentary order was . quite evident , in the proceedings. Paul Michael's Orchestra delight fully entertained ' the guests , with classic and jazz selections. The music was well accepted by the stag audi ence. Refreshments were served con sisting of a salad course followed by ice cream and cake after which smokes were freely indulged in. , The President was asked to, appoint a committee in the near future to take care of all arrangements for the dance. The treasurer announced that no expense would be spared to make this the most successful Junior Prom ever to be staged at the University. The dance hall, probably Bynum Gymnasium, will be attractively dec orated for the occasion, and favors will be presented the girls in attend ance. The dance will be formal, and will be strictly limited to the mem bers of the Junior Class. In former years the crowd has been swelled so by the attendance of members of all classes that an invitation card system will probably be resorted to this year. In a few days invitations will go out to hundreds of the fair sex, and each member of the class will be given an invitation which will admit him to the dance. Coach "Chuck" Quinlan will send his 1928 edition of the Tar Heel grapplers into action tonight for the first time. The Concord "Y" mat- men are ; slated to furnish the oppo sition in the meet which is carded for the Tin Can at 8:00 o'clock. Of the seven men that take the mat for Carolina, it is a certain, fact that six will be entering their first varsity meet. Since Captain Voige Gardner will be held out of competition by heavy scholastic duties, Gene Thomp son is the only monogram man to face the Association men. Thomp son won his letter two years ago in the 119 pound division, but has since taken on weight and will enter the 139 pound class this week. Backing Thompson will be a half dozen youngsters who have received their baptism of fire on the varsity reserves, in trial bouts or in fresh man contests. Competition has been keen among members of the large squad that turns out. daily. ;. The Y.M.C.A. men are reported to have a strong, experienced and mat- wise crew, so the match tonight wil test the calibre of the Tar Heels and furnish an indication of possible re suits in later intercollegiate contests The outstanding men in the differ ent weights include the following men: Betts, Moore and Waggoner in the 119 pound class; Stone and Hem bry in ' the 120 pound; Thompson in the 139 pound; Sanders, Davidson Moore and Abbott in the 149 pound section; Worthington, w imams ana Goldberg in the 158 pound; Twiford and Houghton in the 175 pound class two football captains, Morehead and Schwartz will struggle with Wilson for the unlimited berth. The complete schedule for the 1928 season shows the following meets during January, February and March: January 21 Concord "Y" at Chapel Hill. ' January 26 V.P.I. at Chapel Hill. February 4 Davidson at Davidson. February 7 Washington and Lee, at Lexington, Va. , February 11 Duke at Chapel Hill. February 18 V.M.I, at Lexington, Virginia. February 25 Virginia at Chapel Hill. In addition the Southern Confer ence wrestling tournament will be held in the Tin Can here during the firsts week in March, drawing entries from practically every Conference in stitution that promotes the mat game. "On the whole the outlook for the future of humanity and final consum ation of the ideal of world peace is hopeful, although there are at present many danger ' spots of potential in ternational ; conflagraton scattered over the world, according to Sherwood Eddy, famous lecturer and traveler, who spoke in Memorial Hall yester day morning in the first of a series of six lectures here under the aus pices of ;the Young Men's Christian Association. ' ; ' 'The League of Nations, the bright est spot in all the events in Europe during the past few years, has come o stay, and I have great hopes for he futures of Russia and of Japan," Mr. Eddy asserted. "It seems to me hat the world is slowly, painfully working out a better mode of life for itself," His first impression of Europe was that it has recovered economically but not politically since the. Great War. . Economically it seems 'to have gone ahead of where it was before the War, although America has in creased the value of its products 60 in the same space of time that Europe was barely managing to move ahead of its former position. Dictatorship . Thirteen new republics and ten dic tatorships," the latter with only con tempt for democracy, have been or ganized in Europe since "the - War. "The Hohenzollerns, the Hapsburgs, and the Romanoffs have gone forever, but the black-shirted facisti of Italy and the red communists of Russia have succeeded to their places," Mr, Eddy said. "But I believe that the dictatorships will pass while the re publics and democracies will survive." "England, with over a million men out of work for more than ten years, is hard hit. It has to pay over half a million dollars every year to the United States in the war debt to this country.

There is no doubt that the standard which has been set for the acceptance of material has been noticeably raised, for articles in this number, for 'the. most part, are good though the editor did go out side of the Students for a little. Be that as it may, the lead article, "The Blues : Negro Sorrow , Songs," needs no comment on the part of the humble reviewer. The, author, Guy V. Johnson, has distinguished himself in his collaboration with Howard W. Odum in their volume of Negro Workaday Songs.. "The Blues" is composed of excerpts from this work. It explains the negro in his true ele ment; it is colorful and vivid. There is another Negro article by Boswell Black. The opening poem of "Blue Jim and Black Buzzard" is much better that the article is prose, but the relation of the poem to the prose is rather misty in our mind's eye. The Negro is the subject of both; that is all , we can ""decipher. We do, however, get a rather vivid but im possible picture of 'Blue Jim. "The Everlasting Hills" by Har riette Wood springs along nicely un til the last of the act. The play, for the most part, is good, but the end ine strikes the reviewer as weak.

Arrangements have just been completed for the appearance of the band in Raleigh tonight, and the whole organization con sisting of sixty pieces will make the trip in two special busses which have been chartered for the occasion.

Campus Wilderness Undergoing Change; New Parking Space That portion of the campus south of the center which has hitherto re mained in a state much like a wilder ness is at least undergoing transfor mation r and civilization by the Uni versity authorities. Two sections, one lying just behind Philips Hall, and the other almost between Memorial and Gerrard Halls, a little to the rear, which was once used as tennis courts, and until the past few days had preserved its iron posts and several banks marking of the field, have been leveled off, the posts and other obstructions removed, and will henceforth be utilized for parking purposes. ' This step was taken to increase the parking facili ties, and to relieve somewhat the wear and tear on the grass by incon siderate auto drivers' leaving their vehicles on the herbage. That very wild and desolate area bounded on the west side by Venable Hall, on the north by the railroad tracks, and on the east by Murphey Hall and Emerson Field has been opened for development by cutting a road from the new. parking grounds just behind the Y across the spur track through this territory . to the South Road. In the future, new buildings will .occupy this ground. Men in the chemistry department find this new inlet quite a convenience as they are now able to drive directly to the center of activities without fol lowing the former circuitous rout out to the South Road and around by the Pittsboro ' road or the old Raleigh road to Cameron avenue. Another long felt need is being an swered in the construction of more up-to-date and usable walks " to the Tin Can. One is being built from Manning : Hall " south ' between Mur phey and Emerson Field, across' the cinder track through the wild woods to the west entrance of the Tin Can. The former "path from the extension "of the walk to the lower end of Murphey has been improved and con verges with the new walk near the cinder-track. " Lights have - been in stalled and the situation is greatly improved. 4 : St. Paul on Honor System . . Parson Moss, of the Presbyterian church will have as his Sunday morn ing subject "The.
