The Tar Heel will be glad to give prominent display to all couples who wish to announce their engagement during the next five weeks. ' The Greensboro Daily News says that Will Rogers "Talks Much,' Says Much." Which should be first-class news considering this spring weather, "How Far Will a Girl Go?" a. lead ing state daily headlines in glaring type. . Well now, just about, sir,' as far as you have money to buy the ticket. Our favorite tri-weekly states, "The Tar Heel wishes to cored this error," in a correction. . Well, we are satis fied since it was shown who was at the piano and the corection holds. We suppose that something should be said about the two weeks rest we are about to receive and how glad we are. , Anyhow, it is assumed that the Teaders of this worthy journal wel come the rest as much as we. "New Fireman Gives. Town Better Service," headlines . the Tar Heel, stating that the : fire engine leaves the firehouse to answer alarms in less "than thirty minutes" arid carries " the 'necessary hose and wrenches to the fire'on' the first trip. w WATCH YOUR " STEP AND ' PEEPERS With examinations for. the winter quarter coming next week it may be pertinent to call the sftidents' 4 atten tion to the fact that strict, honorable conduct is expected of them during the 'time they are being ' examined. . Of recent times much has been said about how little honor there is among the students, how little the honor sys tem is enforced and practiced, and how many flagrant violations are daily seen. r. We profess Babbittry and Ro tarianism to the extent that our opin ion still holds that the world is not all bad. , There are violations of the honor system, many more than we would choose to have if it were under cur control. But all is not dark. ; It really isn't as bad as it appears, say to one who has just eaten too heavily 'of roast beef and raisin pudding on a warm spring day. . A feeling of pride and responsibil ity, self-reliance, leaps up in the Car olina student when he, or she, consid ers to what extent "the faculty 'Have openly approved of the integrity and honorableness of the students.' s After all it is the ' same argument about fair with "yourself.' It your education; it means so much more when it is gotten in the specified by the rules. ' Some cheating is done through care less, and withal thoughtless, actions on the part of those taking examina tions. This moves us to admonish the student to watch how the eyes are sometimes subjected to fits of wander ing and glancing at the work of those sitting nearby. Be independent to the extent that you trust your own knowl edge and information so much that your opinion about what the answer should be is more important than what the other student thinks and writes. And, we are almost embold ened to state, if one must cheat, for the sake of the situation doing it in a manly Way. The Tab Heel respectfully reminds the students taking examinations to watch their conduct with a little more than ordinary care, and to recipro cate the trust reposed in them by the student officials and faculty mem bers, r " BEHOLD A STATESMAN Dav Carol The Tar Heel is delighted to make one of the most important announce ments ever made at this University. Senator James A. Reed, whom the writer considers the most colorful figure in. Congress today, will speak here on March 27. Throughout the series of invitations extended to the eloquent Missourian, those who , know anything of Ameri can politics have waited eagerly for news of an acceptance. Now they may shout, for an event of more im portance than the Carolina-Virginia game is soon to take place. Jim Reed, the giant statesman whose very name spells terror to the Republican party, has finally consented to visit Chapel Hill. Is a political machine an omnipo tent agency in , elections? Senator Reed has whipped them single-handed, using only the eloquence" of, his voice and the ruthless logic of his intellect. " Is courage part of manhood? Sen ator Reed is one' of the most daring figures in American history. We say this advisedly. . Read the story of his conscientious defiance of Wood row Wilson, the idol of myriad Dem ocrats. Recall the. days when Reed was read out of his own state party as a renegade; now he is its favorite for the presidency. He has brought death to many Re publican aspirations. Considered by many a peerless debater, he has hounded the Grand Old Party with savage attacks on corruption. When this man mounts a rostrum, a nation listens. In his recent tour, of the West, he minced no words. He declared Calvin V Coolidge guilty of malfeasance of duty. And the power ful Reed is accredited with the de struction of the chances of Frank O. Lowden and Major-General Wood in the election of 1920. Nor did he fail to point out that McAdoo was unen- viably connected with the Doheny oil affair, thereby stopping the ambitious presidential aspirant dead in his tracks. Here we have a giant among men. Because of his honesty and his gift for oratorical expression, Senator Reed is feared perhaps more than any other Deinocrat in the upper house. His visit to Chapel Hill, in the opin ion of the associate editor, is the most important event so far this year. Speaker on Cotton Mills Slated Here Miss Powtin, of Spartanburg, Secured for March 26. Miss Marjorie Powtin of Spartan burg, S.! C, will lecture here on March 26 on the Cotton Mills of the South. The lecture is one of a series of talks on the economic problems of the South, arid is presented under the aus pices of the school of commerce. '""Miss Powtin 'is a social worker in the Saxon Mills at Spartanburg, and, has been in contact with mill com munities over a period ' of ten years. She is the author of "Cotton Mill Workers of the- Piedmont" and the holder of a Ph.D. degree from Col umbia University. . JMiss Powtin will present the sit uation from the standpoint of the employers. She is the second lec turer to discuss this subject before the department of economics. The meeting will be open to the public. Howell Reads from George Meredith . Doctor A. C. Howell of the Grad uate Department, read selections from George Meredith's works to a small crowd at the Bull's Head Reading held in Murphy Hall, Thursday after noon. Mr. Howell read his selections from two of Meredith's works: "The Ordeal of Richard Feverel" and "Modern Love: Poems and Ballads," both of which were thoroughly en joyed by the few, listeners. ' This was the last Bull's Head Read ing of the quarter." No reading" will be held next Thursday on account of examinations.- Calf 's HeatJ By H. J. Galland A Weekly review of news of the BulVs Head, the University book shop. We wandered into the Bull's Head the other day and found the Boss at ease. It is rarely that he is away from the typewriter or 'phone, or not busy telling Miss Wliosis, Yes, the book is perfectly suitable for young ladies, or Oscar Piffle, No, meal tick ets can't be accept - in payment for books, or unpacking new arrivals, or about to leave, or something. Well, it isn't often that you catch him with a spare moment, so we has tened to ask for news for our hotly eager and palpitating readers, which, in case you don't recognize yourself, means you. Mr. Jones gave it to us, somewhat in this manner: "Well, let's see. We have, ahem, the only complete collection of the Modern Library in the South. . . . Octavus Roy Cohen has the honor of having written the worst book of 1928. . . This novel The Women of Point Sur (picking it up) is hot stuff, but it should be spelt "Sewer." . . . Dr. Odurii's . Rahibotv Round My Shoulder is this week's best seller. .' . . And Paul Green is the all round best seller. . . . Somebody ordered a book by Ella Wheeler Wil cox but hasn't called for it, so there's some hope for literature." At this . point the . Boss looked around,; and with tears in his voice, and he can do it too, announced that the sales sheets for the last two days were missing, and the bookkeeping had become temporarily cock-eyed. Then he informed us that nobody reads the Medical books, and that Robert W. Service seems to be neglected, thank goodness, and Strange Interlude by O'Neill (has come in, and there doesn't seem to be any more interest in Wil son in the South, and that he couldn't think of any more news. . We were reading the Sunday Times in the shop last Monday, and we saw a photo , of Mussolini's youngest. A friend says he thinks it a homely baby, and we think it looks like the Duce. Put down that brick, feller, put it down! My Pious Friends and. Drunken Companions, a book of merry, mad ballads, of. the good old days, is back again on the shelves. Take another look at that , title, and then explain its popularity here. And perhaps there is some significance in the fact that Marriage Made Easy is right along side Enough Rope on the shelves. We must remember to ask Mutt Evans about that. We mentioned Dr. Odum's Rain boio Round My Shoulder further up the line as the week's best seller. The reviewers have been quite extravagant about it. The Times and the Herald- Tribune gave it fine notices. The original Black Ulysses who did the wandering described by himself in the book, is, according to reports, at pres ent working on the University grounds. Can you pick him out? At any rate, it's a grand book. We liked particularly some of the songs included. For instance: Don't never git one woman on yo' min'; , Keep you in trouble all time. Buddy, let me tell you what nigger woman do, . . ' ' She have 'nut her man an' play sick on you. Well, 6h my baby, you don't have to mind:. When you think I'm lovin' you, I'm leavin' you behind. And lots more like that. . An unusual and a fine book. Oswald, the educated cockroach, has been having trouble. We will bow gracefully and relinquish the type writer to him. trouble is right dammit and thats only half of it you see i am trying to develop myself so. that i will be able to use the shift key on the typewriter so i can punctuate and everything and i decided to take a course in strength building under highernell strongfeet the great new york physical culturist well he says in lessson 11 get plenty of exercise so i ran up and down the keyboard four times and slipped on the space bar and broke my sixth leg on the right side but i met the sweet est centipede who lives right next door in dr mackies office and we went out last night oh gee oh gosh oh golly im in love it almost .makes up for the leg hope you all have good luck on your exams And so do we. And a high and hilarious vacation. , Some people take as much pleasure in investigation as others do in In toxication. William' Cabell Bruce.

Ad Warren Knocks Army Fighter Flat , In the Second Round Ad Warren, -former University football and boxing star, added an other tally to his formidable string of victories by knocking out Joe Binnett of army fame in. the first minute of the second round in Wilson Thursday night. Warren's terrific power and speed were too much for his opponent and Bennett was sent to the canvas for the count of ten by a crashing right to the solar plexus. Approximately 4,000 fans witnessed the encounter, in the miniature "Madi son Square. Garden" in the Farmer's Warehouse. Scores fought at the ticket window to gain admission, and numerous would-be athletes climbed to the roof of the structure and the skylights in order to secure a vantage tage point. John Warren, father of "K. O.," and Ox Shuford, Southern Conference heavyweight champion, were among those in attendance and were introduced to the audience. The fight was clearly Warren's from the sound of the first bell. , Af ter a good amount of pummeling War ren sent Bennett back through the ropes with his powerful right for the count of three in the first round. The bell saved him. In the opening of the second round Bennett came cau tiously from his corner. Warren, full of vigor and anxious for fighting, charged him and landed a right to his head. In the clinch K. O. peppered his opponent with .short, hard jabs. As Bennett backed away, weakened, the crowd, yelled for a knockout and Warren rushed , in with , his right, landing the blow to the solar plexus and finished the other, fighter. The house : went wild. The victor . was cheered until he left in his car. We have unenployment in this coun try. .Why not admit it. SHOWING AT CAROLINA . DRY CLEANERS MON. & TUES. MARCH 19 & 20 Rep.
