The last issue of the Tar Heel was so overflowing with open forum let ters that the said Jetters won out over paragraphics by the score of 5 to 0. All of which may have been for the best! And they say the Yackety Yack will be distributed Friday and Satur day. Here's hoping, but never since we've been an inmate of this institu tion have we seen the yearbooks giv en out before final . exams. Let there be music, lectures, and drama! For the first time this year the Track Team seems to be exhibiting a lack of speed the election of next year's captain has not yet been held. Let there be music, lectures, an? drama! ; AND SO FAREWELL . Today there appears Number 92 of the 36th volume of the Tar Heel, the last issue of the year. , , And now typewriters and typists, copy readers and copy reporters, edi tors and editeds, may sink upon the office floor for one brief breathing spell. Ahead of us lie those ever-recurring final exams, that annual period of graduation, commencement of ac tual work for sheepskin owners, and for others a summer's holiday. And so farewell. LET THERE BE LECTURES, MUSIC AND DRAMA ! Several weeks of pertinent discus sion of the proposed entertainment fee now brings the issue to a he'd. The voting takes place today. Today will decide whether the mem bers of next year's student body will have the privilege 'of hearing, seeing, and enjoying from four thousand to five thousand dollar's worth of the best possible entertainment for the nominal sum of one dollar per quar ter. '. ' . y ; Today will decide whether next year's program will consist of perhaps one fairly good entertainment and sevei-al poor ones or a splendid series of 'in teresting entertainments, at least one every month, by such speakers as Sherwood Anderson, Count Von Luck ner, William Beebe, Richard Hallibur ton, Vachel Lindsay, John Masefield, Thornton Wilder; such musical treats as Ponselle, Jeritza, Paul Whiteman's Orchestra; such dramatic productions as the New York Theater Guild at N. C. C. W. If the suggested fee is accepted, the programs will be arranged by a stu dent committee cooperating with the regular University Lectures Commit tee for the lectures, with Professor Koch for the dramatic entertainment, and with Mr. "Weaver for music. In this way the programs would be sure to prove of interest to the students. The question has been raised as to why the A. B. School and the School of Education alone are to have the privilege of voting the entertainment fee. Although of course the ideal thing would be for the entire student body to adopt the plan, the trouble is that Memorial Hall, the largest as sembly room of the campus, cannot accommodate more than about half of the student body. It would be unfair, then, to vote a fee upon the student body and not have any place wherein to accommodate all those who had paid the fee. The movement arose in the A. B. School and was extend ed to the School of Education because these two schools seemed the most log ical ones in that the high grade tf the proposed entertainments were more closely allied to the scholastic work of the schools. Students enrolled in other schools, however, will have an opportunity to buy season tickets to the entertainments until alr'the seats in Memorial Hall have been sold out. "To the polls today!" is our plea. Let there be Lectures, Music, and Drama! OPEN FORUM UNFAIR PROFS To the Editor: In a few more days I will have com pleted my journey through the "edu cating machine" of the University provided, I pass two courses. To be brief, , every quarter that I have been here there is always some professor or professors who insist on giving a long, hard quiz just a few days before the final examination. As a remedy for this I would like to see the faculty pass a regulation pro hibiting such or at least enforce the regulation if there is one in existence. And another thing. As I under stand it, the University regulation provides for a two-hour final examina tion and the schedule is arranged in such a way that a large number of students have two final examinations in one day. ; When a professor deliber ately, willfully, and knowingly puts up an examination that the best stu dent cannot complete in two hours, he is taking an unfair advantage which his absolute power in such a case allows him. The student must attempt to pass the final if he wants to pass the course. This frequently results in a student flunking his next examination because he is not given sufficient time to rest and collect his thoughts before the- afternoon exam ination -begins. Mr. JFacultymen, won't you please give this due consideration in these last few days when you begin giving your pop quizzes and making out your final examinations. A. HELPLESS VICTIM. EVANS EXPLAINS Editor of the Tar Heel: 1 I want to take this opportunity of informing the students that the senti ments voiced in my letter in. Tuesday's Tar Heel were my own personal re actions to Mr. Cone's letter and Mr. Spearman's editorial. I had no in tention of giving the impression that I had consulted the other members of the board and was speaking for them. I signed my name as Secretary of the P. U. Board in order to show that my position on the board proved that I knew something about the facts of the case. E. J. EVANS Changes Made In Y Staff Personnell Official announcement of a change in the personnel of the Y.M.C.A. staff for the year 1928-1929 was made yesterday at the Y.M.C.A. office.

IffiLLY WALLACE WMSGRAE CUP New Dorms Athletic Luminary Selected for Highest Intra- ; mural Honor. j Kelly Wallace, New Dorms ath letic luminary, is the winner of the annual Grail Cup designating the best Ail-Round Intramural athlete for the 1927-28 season. Roy Alexander, also of the New Dorms crew, was runner up for the highest of all Intramural honors. Wallace carried off the cup with a total of one hundred and forty six points, while Alexander trailed with one hundred and thirty-five points. The Intramural Statistician scores points to each individual according to the following plan: one point is scored to each individual for play in a game on the losing side; five points are scored for play in a game on the winning side for each contestant. Wallace and Alexander ran a neck-and-neck race for the award up until ' the baseball season, when Alexander i answered the call to the. varsity base ball field. The small catcher who! stepped in the breach and saved the day during the classic Virginia series I was leading Wallace by 10 points when ! the season of the National Pastime j rolled around. Kelly played four I winning games- for New Dorms and j one losing contest to take the lead during the baseball grind.' It was greatly due to the stellar work of Alexander and Wallace that the New Dorms Tag Football squad swept easily to the campus title, in that sport. Both rated an All-Campus berth, while Roy was selected to captain the mythical selection by vir tue of his all-season performances. The New Dorms speed merchant was high scorer among the tag football backs with, a total of 97 points. Wal lace played hardly less brilliantly at end. He, also, was among the high scorers of -the season. The two , leaders paired up at for ward on the New Dorms undefeated basketball team. In this capacity they proceeded to make life miser able for opposing guards. Both made Nap Lufty's All-Dormitory team. Came the boxing season and Roy took the lead over Wallace when he won three bouts for New Dorms' Cham pionship squad. Then came the base ball season t when Alexander was forced out of the running by his var sity work. Neither entered the Horseshoe Tournament or Tennis Matches. , The "Up .Town" Dorms were unde feated in football, basketball, boxing, wrestling, and lost one game in base ball. : Carolina Theatre Management Hosts At Barbecue Supper The editors and business managers of the Tar Heel, members of the force at the Orange Printshop, the force of the Carolina Theatre, and several invited guests, including Dr. T. J. Wilson, Dr. Nathan, and V. A. Hill, were entertained by the management of the Carolina Theatre yesterday af ternoon from 5:30 to 7:00 at a barbe cue supper at Sparrow's pool.

J l K! krd's Classes Hear Local Savants Dean Addison Hibbard's English 60 class in recent American literature has been for the last few meetings hearing lectures by several of the faculty members of other departments in the University. Dr. Howard W. Odum spoke on "The Experimentalists in Modern Births"; Professor Mumford Jones spoke on "Critical Attitudes towards Literature"; Dr. English Bagby gave a lecture on "The Relation of Psy chology to the Realistic Novel." Paul Green will probably talk this morn ing on "The Recent American Drama.'' Members of the class state that they have been enjoying these talks very much, and Mr. Hibbard says that "it is a gratifying example of coop eration between departments here in the University." ; Sub-Assistants for I Football Announced Max Barker, manager of foot ball, announces that the follow ing men have been chosen as sub assistant managers of football for 1928: Paul Wimbish, J. V. Lind ley, K. C. Ramsay, "Cal" Calhoun, A. G. Peeler, Jr., and Herbert Best. P. B. Ruffin and George Pennington were chosen as alter . nates.
