Once, now and then in perhaps a score, a student find's a professor who is something more than a lecturer, quizzer, and who finally decides the paiga conies out, has no candidates, seek3 no reward. Anyone infringing on the inalienable rights of freedom of discussion, refusing to countenance the presentation of both sides, can te overthrown so easily that it is hardly sportsmanlike to do it The letter is its own refutation.

We gather from the article that Coach Bob exhorts the students to "Find Yourself, Men!" (Dav Carol) Requested to attend a session of court, a Guilford College student re fused to absent himself from classes, U.N.C.CJ'. Editor even at the risk of going to jaiL The Greensboro Daily News said so. Occasionally the Tar Heel pub lishes statements printed in other pa pers, but does not vouch for the truth of the news. ,This is such an in stance. However, it would be useless to ask some Guilfordian to verify the report. In fact, perhaps this odd young man who dares to seek an education has already been lynched by an outraged campus of "collegiates." He would have been strung and quartered here. But if our Quaker friends, with a kindness which we could not muster, have declined to burn the heretic, he should be saved for posterity. Uni versity officials would be delighted to offer him free tuition for attendance here. And if he is an athlete, some body might give "him tuition, board, and spending money for taking in our tennis nets at night. It's hot our fault. If the Greens boro paper had only reported that a college student went to jail in pref erence to attending classes, the asso ciate editor wouldn't be saucer-eyed a-tall. But we'll tell you, men, when a modern college youth refuses to miss his classes in spite of a yawning calaboose, there's either a nigger in the wood-pile or a lady in the class room. Twelve more days and all will be , well. Twelve more cramming From all reports it is concluded that Johnny Allison got a great action picture when the Di and Phi societies met and discussed presidential candi dates. - - - "I have written all I know about them," says John Erskine in speak ing of women.

Laughinghouse, secre tary and treasurer of the North Car olina Medical Board, will address chapel students Monday on the pro fession of medicine and its possibil ities in the state, it was announced yesterday from the office of the dean of students. This is the eleventh talk on a series of vocations being planned by the vocation office and Dean Brad- shaw. Dr. Laughinghouse has been one of the few men doing research work, in the medical profession. He graduated from the University in 1892 and im mediately entered one of the large medical schools in the East. After his work was completed there he re turned to North Carolina and carried on a very successful practice of med icine in Greenville. He then entered public life as a member of the State Board.; Since that time he has been closely connected with the most im portant steps which have been taken to advance his profession. The man has not limited his services to the state to the profession of which he is a member. , He is one of the directors of the General Alumni Association of the University and he has shown his in terest in many of the state problems. Dr. Laughinghouse is one of the out standing men who will visit the cam pus this year. WHATS HAPPENING Today 8:00 p. m. Tin Can. High School basketball finals. Charlotte vs. Wilmington. 9:00 p. m.

Hadley was adjudged the winner Of the Carolina Theatre con test for the best portrayal of a smile on the "smileless" countenance of Bus ter Keaton printed in the Tar Heel Thursday, and will receive a, week's free pass for his -artistic excellence. H. F. Chrisco turned in the next best piece of work and will receive a sin gle pass. The number of sketches turned in was not so large, probably due to the fact that there was so little time in which to get the sketches in, but the ones turned in were exceptionally good. ' The passes are being held at the box office for the winners. CLIPPED POLITICAL HERESY AT CHAPEL HILL Papers report that an auto thief gave himself up and expressed his utter self -disgust over the act - to - the officers. He ain't heard the half of it till he reaches the judge. , With the high school circus today and a .winter carnival in track book ed, it looks like the village is in for some amusement. - But, alas, the cir cus comes on the week-end! Probably the Guilford college stu dent who had rather go to jail than to- miss his classes had better begin agitating for optional class attend ance at the Quaker institution. One of the Capital City papers states that "Carolina's Fairest of the Fair" received some 25,000 votes to win the beauty contest conducted by the local heatre. Which reassures us more and more that she really must be the 'fairest of the fare.' TRIVIALITY The conservation of two seniors, who ' take their positions among the alumni in June, emboldens us to off er just a bit of friendly advice to fresh men. ' The members of the class of '31 have now been here long enough to become acclimatized to the University environment. It is assumed 1 that those who wish an education are be ginning to bestir themselves to seek the manner in which to most effi ciently pursuing knowledge. Do not mistake us. We neither suggest more hours in the library nor fewer week end trips. Those are commendable and worthy, but our senioric sophis tication points toward futility. All education is the study of great men and their works. This being un derstood, it naturally follows that if the most is to be derived from the study of great men, great teachers should be saught to give instruction. Why seek to ' learn of greatness through the medium of mediocrity? But you have guessed it by now 1 .'The friendly advice is the same old On the campus of the University f North Carolina a political campaign on national issues has been set in motion under the sponsorship of the student newspaper,- The Tar Heel. There will be, we understand, a vote; but first there will be meetings and speeches by various spellbinders of both parties. Any of the national candidates appears welcome and pre sumably all of them will have their devotees. In brief, an exercise in the national pastime, presumably design ed for such educational effects as it may produce and- life on any cam pus being what it isnot a little fun. At this 'juncture a protest has come from a citizen of Wilmington, W. M. Cartwright, "who . in a letter to "The Tar Heel views with alarm in this manner: The move made by your paper to get the university students mixed up in politics is causing a lot of discus sion in this section of the state and most of it is not favorable. , . North Carolina has always been a Democrat state and the university a state supported school. This means your school gets its money from Dem ocrat tax payers and from a Demo crat legislature. Now you are plan ning to bring Republican as well as Democrat ! speakers to the university and give them an equal chance to speak for their candidates. I believe in fair play but this is a different matter. The Republicans have been trying hard for a long time ta break in this state and destroy the Demo crat government and the university is no place to give them an opening. All the young men at your school are the voters of the future. North Carolina has always been part of the solid south and that is a tradition it should not depart from. I am afraid that your idea of welcoming Republi can speakers is a mistake and will antagonize some men who might oth erwise wish their sons to go to the university. Mr. Cartwright unknown to the Daily News is presumed to be sin cere, although the temptation is strong;to view his latter as an ad mirable straw man. To The Tar Heel, "such twaddle smacks of childish fears and bugaboos and goblins." It professes no interest in how the cam Winston-Salem Hi Cancels Bout with Tar Baby Boxers The Carolina, Tar Baby mitt-sling-ers will not feed on high school blood this week-end as per schedule due to the fact that the meet carded with the Winston-Salem Highs has been cancelled by the Twin City authorities. News stories from the Twin-City have it that the boxing and wrestling teams there, were disbanded on ac count of ministerial pressure and in adequate housing facilities for the meets. The Winston-Salem schools had two outstanding high school teams in this branch of athletics and news of the break was. received with a bit of surprise here. The Salemites have never been defeated in high circles and were making boasts of taking the Heelests into tow when they met. So the Babies hang up the gloves after participation in only two en counters, easily emerging victorious in both of them.- The two victories were gained at the expense of V. P. I and V. M. I.
