' "Russian People Are Theatre Mad, Says Mrs. Murray,", headline the fav orite tri-weekly. And what about the Carolina students? If the fact that the Playmakers have new scenery for the winter bill is not sufficient to attract a sizable audiencej then the titles of the plays should do the trick. A Charlotte doctor states that all who go to the hospital are not sick. Question is whether' the same may be applied to infirmaries.

For one whole week, maybe fen days, we've had nary a word from Admiral Tom Heflin, doughty defend er. Can it be that the Pope has got him bribed? . The Raleigh News and Observer observes, "When Andrew Mellon tells Dave" Blair who Big Business wants, the North Carolina delegation will line up for him. That's that." Now haven't they . been saying- the same thing about The Senator? FREEDOM SHOULD NOT EN COURAGE ABUSE It . is , becoming . noticeable of late, as one thoughtful student remarked the other day, that there is a grow ing lack of respect for University property and grounds. The Tar Heel does not have to bestir itself to any great extent to seek far before a' con firmation to this statement is forth coming. . - ... ' ' ' -An ugly, well-beaten pathway bi secting the plats directly in front of Old West building is evidence of how careless the petty disregard for the beauty of the campus can destroy that which takes months to do. Thought less students, and members of the fac ulty as well, have contributed to this unsightly path by inadvertently tak ing a short-cut route to South build ing. They have no malice towards the University or the appearance of the campus. A dozen yea, perhaps a. score of steps are saved; a wide swath, barren of grass; repulses the eye with its stark ugliness at a place where beauty and appearance is most desired. . Then there is the path between the entrance at Battle building and run ning to Old East. Twice, maybe t'irice, each year this" strip 'lanst-be replanted and signs referring pedes trians to the walks are posted- Re- turning alumni and trustees visiting j the campus are quick to .notice these j disregards, these trivial violations j that contribute so much to mar the perfection and beauty of the campus. And that is not alL The, walls. of the various University buildings are becoming, conspicuously unattractive because of the activities of bam art ists, authors of doggerels and wise cracking loons. Those who deface property by drawings and writings attract to themselves a certain pity mingled with . contempt. Certainly there is no offense s.o trivial that con tributes so much to mar and disfigure as freak pictures and inane state ments. ' . V .. There is nothing particularly start ling in. the fact that violations" among students is prevalent where an insti tution :teaches that discipline should be self -inspired and the primary ob jective, be to teach the attributes of good government .by thoughtful and considerate conduct. The University is to be everlastingly praised for the attitude it takes towards student dis cipline. Such generous concessions, such liberalness calls for. reciproca tion. There . is a mutualness of re spect and responsibilities, that should be guarded closely lest there be gross violations. The Tar . Heel would remind those who thoughtlessly deface property ; of the institution and those who care lessly mar the beauty of the campus, that 'they, in doing so, injure that which is their own. OPEN FORUM FOR AL SMITH Editor of Tar Heel: Any action which will result in in terest being taken by the students in national politips is greatly to be com mended. Particularly is this true at the present time when we have before the public eye the most commanding and attractive personality which has arrested its attention in yearsr that of New York's great governer, Al fred E Smith, better known as Al. This factor alone is enough tto arouse th greatest enthusiasm and interest on the part of anyone, for here we have a man who is really all there. y Al Smith is , beyond any . question the most, desirable man for the pres idency. His ability, is proven, the public knows where he stands on the question of the day, and if the truth be told it is hard indeed to see how other candidates , can be considered when a man like Governor Smith can be. secured. The quality of pep and fire which abounds in the campaign this year is duly exclusively to his entry. He has . aroused the nation from its long lethargy, to a whole some and constructive interest again. The- night has passed and bright dawn has. returned. '. It seems to the writer that there is an imperative need for an Al Smith for; President Club on the -campus Where are . the political leaders and keen minded ,men that this has not been done' before? The opportunity is here, the materials are here, aR that is needed is the energy of some one to fashion, them into a potent and much needed organization. Such a thing is' possible for no one else, for the merits of the other can didates are'not of such calibre as to justify a display of interests on the part of Carolina -students There is only one logical man for the Presi dency this time, Al Smith. - '"'X;, "citizen.

' CLIPPED A FAITHUL OFFICIAL PASSES North Carolina in the death .'of Secretary of State W. N. Everett lost one of it3 m'ost beloved citizens and faithful and efficient public officials. Mr. Everett's contribution to the state cannot be measured in terms of dollars and cents. Foremost among the contributions which he made up to the life of the state which he served was his work and influence in behalf of charitable and educational institutions of learn ing. His first public : off ice was the chairmanship of the board of educa tion in his home county back a dozen or more. years ago when public school program was just starting on- its present scale in the state. From this position he went to the legislature and there, battled for in creased appropriations and a broaden ed scope of service for North Caro lina's charitable and educational in stitutions. He was especially . inter ested in the University of North Car olina of which he was an alumnus and his efforts counted conspicuously in the enlarged program for the univer sity and the retention of Dr. Chase as its head after he had been offered a much larger salary in another state. Mr. .Everett was an indefatigable worker as indicated by his success in farming and business before he en tered the realm of public service and as intensified by his record in office. Frequently during the past he left a sick bed, against advice of his doc tors, to transact state matters which he". felt required his attention. Cer tainly his continuation on the job when he should have been resting did not tend to improve his health. First and last, regardless of condi tions under which he labored, Mr. Everett enjoyer the companionship of his fellow men. His was a pleasing personality which craved friendship and which made friendships. A public servant, a Christian and a gentle man in whom the milk of human kind ness, was' combined with efficiency, faithfulness, vision and culture. That was W. N. Everett. His record and his life speak for themselves and show unmistakably why the grief in the capital and over "the state' was so personal upon re ceipt of the news that he had passed into the Gfeat Beyond. Rocky Mount Evening Telegram. WHALING CLOSES M'NAIR LECTURES Visiting Professor Finds True Harmon Between Science arid Religion. ' ' "Conflicts between natural science and true religion are always the re sult of misinterpretations and misrep resentation of one or both," asserted Dr. Thornton Whaling, "Professor of Systematic Theology and former pres ident'of the Presbyterian Theological Seminary at Louisville, Kentucky, Wednesday night in Gerrard Hall in the last of the series of McNair lec tures. "There can be no real conflict between these two, although history abounds with illustrations of these forms of confusing contradictions." ' Dr. Whaling's topic for the final lecture was "The. Relation of Science and Religion." He pointed out that there are certain mutual relations be tween ?the two, although their separa tion into entirely distinct and diverse spheres precludes any possibility of real conflict between them. . "The religious man who is scientific will see in his science an inspiration to true religion," he declared. "The nature which science has so wbn drously revealed in modern times de clares the attributes of God with con vincing clearness and consummate art." ' .'' . :r - According to Dr. Whaling, a limited power could never guile the hosts of stars over their courses, nbr create the atom containing millions of elec trons. The established order of .Na ture, with its fixed uniformity of law, exhibits no capricious God, but one so wise that He has no need, to change His plans. "The advance toward ever higher forms of beings with ever increasing perfection and complexity of organic relationship shows us that a purposive cause is enthroned in control in every atom and force in the vast universe. . "There can be no denial that the supreme figure in the religious his tory of mankind is Jesua. "His per fect character is 'perfectly disclosed in the Gospels. Historical science has thrown into the scrap heap the theory that' this figure of Jesus was created by myth or legend or invention. The full- historicity of "the gospel narra tive of Jesus and His disciples is es tablished." - The University of Michigan has or dered the production of a motion p!ic ,ture revealing college life. BOXERS TRIUMPH OVER DUKE AGAIN Tar Heel Pugilists Win All But One Bout ; Cummings Wins By Knockout. The Tar Heel pugs of the Univer sity of North Carolina won a decisive 6 to 1 verdict over the Duke Univer sity Blue Devils in the second match of the season between the rival insti tutions, at the Duke gymnasium, Wed nesday night. It was by the same score that the Heel battlers won over Duke earlier in the season. The only; fight to go against Coach Rowe's men was the 115-lb go. St. Amand of Duke outpointed Coley .in four rounds. All the other bouts, went to Carolina men, two only after ex tra rounds of battling, however. There were only two decisive wins during the affair. Cummings, Caro lina, won a technical knockout over Hardaway after some terrible punch ing. Then big "Ox" Shuford put the finishing touches on the Tar Heels' exhibition of the evening by winning an easy decision over big Hank Culp, Duke's highly touted All-South-Atlantic, grappler. Two of the Heel victories came af ter one extra round. Charlie Brown grabbed off the judges' verdict over Carper ,in an extra period. In" the prettiest fight of the card Captain Ed Butler, battling Heel leader, whipped Ad Warren's little brother in an ex tra go. " The other fights went to the Chapel Hill seven in the regular time. In the 135 division Allen won over Smith, Duke. The terrific left jab of Ran kin had no effect on the versatile foot ball end, Odell Sapp. Sapp won his first "fight in two attempts when he gained the-judges' decision from the Dukester in three rounds. Summary: 115-pound class St. Amand, Duke, decision over Coley, Carolina, extra round.

Ehringhaus Speaks To, Law School on Trial of a Lawsuit . Stressing the Triew that a lawyer's responsibility is to the p,ublic as well as to his client, J.. C. B. Ehringhaus, of Elizabeth City, spoke here Thurs day night in Manning Hall under the auspices ,of the University of North Carolina Law School Association on "The Trial of a . Lawsuit." This was the first of the annual se ries of lectures on the various phases of law practice. The speaker traced the steps 'of a lawsuit from the prep aration of the case through to ' . the court room. The business of chal lenging the jury, direct' and cross ex amination of witnesses, and the fram ing of the issues, was dealt with at considerable length. Mr. Ehringhaus emphasised the point that there is the human ele ment in the court room as well as outside, and that in working a case to its end simple principles of psy chology should be used and efforts should point to the most logical con clusion. Workman to Speak On Leadership Sunday Mr. M. T. Workman will discuss the subject, "Leadership Is It Worth the Price ?" at the Methodist church to morrow morning ' at 10:05. The speaker . has selected this topic in commemoration of Lincoln's birthday.''-. " ' The lecture which Mr. Workman plans to discuss yfrom several view points promises to be one of the best of the series. 'Among the ' topics whkh remain yet to-be covered are: "America Has ..She Lost the Good Will of the World?"; "The Church Has It Lost Its Day?"; and "Educa tionCan It Justify Itself ? " These will be taken up on the next three Sundays with the exception of Febru ary 26 at which time D. D. Carroll, Dean of the Commerce School, will speakn "Business Can It Be Based on Christian Principles?" ' The lectures will be held on the second floor of the church. The of ficers of the classes extend an invita tion to all students' to attend. IVRESTLERS WIN SLUGGM AFFAIR Down N. C. State Grapplers by Count of 132 to 92 in Drawn Out Meet. In direct contrast to the rough-and-tumble matches put on in the 'after noon " by the Carolina freshmen in overwhelming the Wolflets, the Tar Heel varsity tumblers went through seven slow, uninteresting ten-minute periods to take the State College var sity grapplers into tow by a 13 to 9 count, in tha Tin Can Thursday night. Very little wrestling was -exhibited in the regular periods, in fact the meet was one of the most highly suc cessful public necking exhibitions ever staged here.. "Two meets were of interest, the final, unlimited More- head-Morris affair and the Twif ord- Bullock round. To ' begin the fireworks, Moore of Carolina and Hobbs, State, wrestled a slow draw in an " extra period. Thompson, featherweight, Carolina's 1 only consistent winner so far this season, stepped down to his old weight and won a time decision "from Cap tain Leary of State, in extra time, to put the Tar Heels in a lead that was never threatened. Wood and Abbott followed with time decisions for Carolina" over Frisbie and Moore of State, in the 135 and 145 divisions. Choplin turned in the first State win when he succeeded in holding R. Moore to the mat for a one minute and fifty-five second .advantage. "Swampy" Twif ord, another Carolina standby, turned the tables on Bullock of State to win a pretty match on a six-minute, twenty-second advantage. Morris, Wolfpack unlimited star, fur nished the real thrill of the evening when he flipped "Bo" Morehead to his shoulders in the first minute of the bout. After the' Tech. grappler had the ex-football Captain to the. mat, and on his shoulders, however, More head bridged and held him off for four minutes. It was a fine exhibition of strength, but it was a position that no man could endure a great length of time. , . " Summary of matches: 115 pounds D.
