Thursday and yesterday the coaches sent the varsity men through; scrim mages arid the same schedule is like ly to be followed this' afternoon, for only a week remains before the open ing game, and Coach Collins must fill seyeraL vacancies caused by injuries to men likely to get the call against the Demon Deacons: ; -' The Tar Heels finished, their pre liminaries and conditioning exercises . ; during the first ,week," and the second . week found the entire squad scrim maging in the afternoon sessions. That is the first test of mettle of can- didate, and . the ; Tar Heels met it well. , The ends and backs started it 'off Monday and Tuesday, and on Wed nesday the Carolina coaches sent two . full elevens into the fray. J t The coaches have - made two shifts in-order to bring the Carolina for ward wall up to the standard of f or- ' mer years. ; .-: - f ' The two shifts , are in the line and affect the lettermen only, with Nel son Howard Amoved from his right tackle position to the left tackle berth left vacant by Captain Garrett More head last season. Ray Farris, scrappy - guard, who fought his way to an All Soithern berth in three games last ' fall, has taken over Howard's post on the right side of the line. ; : " Both of these shifts are calculated to strengthen the big blue line, since it places Howard -experienced as he is in tackle play on the left flank with the rookie, guard whp may re- place Farris.;L On the . other' . hand, - Farris will be materially aided -in learning tackle tactics since he can play beside such a powerful, guard as Shuler. Eskew. ,or . Blackwood , seem the logical candidates for Farris'. old guard position. f . : ; ; This shif tinrig about was thoroughly ."- tested ' in the daily scrimmages . last t week, and the coaches seemed pleas ed. It is, evident that the University will have another of those strong lines that have become traditionalhere. Heavy; rains this week have put a crimp in Tar Heel practice plans but the coaches have harrowed the' likely ' squad down (to a prophetic minimum, and "observers have, already begun naming probable starting teams. Sam Presson,v regular end of last ' year, is out- with an injury and will probably be the only , one of ten let .. terme'n .to watch the entire .contest from the bench. T"; t ,t . ; : Albert Whisnantj ( veteran quarter, has met heavy competition .. from Erickson "and Gray, but the Char- lotte boy will probably start against the ! Deacons. How long he stays in tthe game is a matter of conjecture, ' for j "Mac" Gray . is. : showing the best form of his three years on the varsity squad. If Whisnant does make the grade during the next week, there will be only three posts left to the care of youngsters. - . , :- Julian Fenner, freshman ' end in 1926, is a husky prospect for Pres sofi's right flank, and -the former Woodberry play will prabably get the starting call if he recovers from a shoulder, injury. The other positions will go to veterans. ' After, all is said and done with the Tar Heels on the home-stretch of pre season training the first team to face the Dea&ms may show Sapp, left end; Howard, left tackle ; ; Blackwood, or Eskew, left guard; Captain Schwartz," center; Shuler, right guard; Farris, right tackle; Fenner or Holt, right -end; Whisnant, quarterback; Ward, left halfback; Spaulding, right half back; and Foard, fullback.- , Glee Club To Hold Tryouts for Singers The.

MURPHY ASSAILS SMATORlSIMMONS Veteran Politician from 'Rowan Bitterly Denounces. Simmons .; v as "Judas Iscariot." The University student body; and the many friends of William Barrows will regret to' learn of -his death on August 11, at. his home near New London, Connecticut. Barrows, with a friend,1 was out hunting rats in a barn near his home when, the gun which his friend ;was carrying acci dentally dischargedi shooting Barrows in , the thigh. It is, reported that he bled to death before he could be car ried to a hospital. . Barrows was a member of Chi Phi fraternity , and had previously at tended Amherst College for a year. He entered here as a Sophomore this past fall and during his stay here made many friends and acquain tances. He was an occasional con tributor, to the Tar Heel, and, active in many sports on the campus. The University regrets to hear of his death, for in him it has lost an earn est student, a gentleman, and, an en thusiastic supporter of Carolina. Speaking at a Democratic rally here last night, Walter Murphy of Rowan county, veteran member of the Gen eral Assembly ; and nominee for re election, i bitterly assailed the Anti Smith stand taken By Senator F. M. Simmons.;:; ; . ; . , ' Declaring that he wished to speak in a language that nobody Could mis understand, he described Senator Sim mons as "the traitor, the Benedict Arnold, and Judas Iscariot of "North Carolina Democracy.";- The address was the first of a series that , are to be delivered here during, the fall by representatives of both of. the major political parties, with , the view to having both sides presented, as has; been the custom in the past.: Mr.. Murphy was frequently ap plauded, especially when he declared: "I have told the voters of my county that I don't want a single one of them to vote for. me unless they can vote for- my captain, ' and the captain of your; Democracy , and- my "Democracy today is Alfred E. Smith. -"It is a matter of small moment to me whether or not I gt to the State , Legislature," he added, "but I am supremely anxious that the people of North- Carolina observe allegiance to the party that brought them out from under , the yoke; of the carpet-bag rule and has been chiefly responsible for their progress of the last sixty years. "I ask you: How can any red blooded ; Democrat forget his allegi ance ' to such a party ? I believe in following the leader selected by the majority. I gave my hert to the Democratic party years ago, I have never hesitated to follow its chosen captain, and I pray God that I will never be fool enough to take any other course." : ' . Mr. Murphy asserted that the "real issues of the campaign have, been ob scured" by the question of prohibition and religious intolerance. The real issues," he said, "are the record dis honesty, corruption, and fraud under the r administrations of. Harding and Coolidge. t '' - "It is a strange thing,',' the speak: erv continued', "that the Senator now opposing Governor Smith is the same man who once said that his definition of a good Democrat was one who voted the whole ticket from constable to President. Referring to Mr. Hoover, he said it was also "strange that It took the Republican candidate 50 years to find out what country he was a citizen of and what party he, was a member of."

Gold v Frospsctor "Went Scotch"1 . Minneapolis, Minn. .' April 30, 1928 Larus & Bro. Co. -Richmond, Va. . Dear-Sirs: , .': . Two years ago last winter I went into -the Red Lake gold fields in Canada. It was a tough trail from . Hudson, over 140 miles of snow and ice. There were fourteen of us on the .trail going in, and frequently at night when seated around a big camp fire, some one would ask me for a pipeful of Edgeworth. These Canadian boys sure like our Edgeworth. ; ; In four weeks time I ran out of Edgeworth. I was glad to get 'most any old tobacco. V ' One day, however, I dropped in to Dad Brown's tent, a 72-year-old pros pector, and seeing a can of Edgeworth on an improvised table, back there 150 ' , miles from the "steel," I perked up at once, saying, "Dad I'm plum out of tobacco how's chances for a pipe ful?" "Help yourself," he said. So pulling my heavy duty pipe from my' pocket, I loaded it with Edgeworth, . packing it in so tightly that I couldn't get the least bit of a draw. . , " I excused myself for a moment, and stepped outside to remove about three pipefuls to put in my pouch. Dad stepped out, saying, "You're worse than any Scotchman I ever saw." Then I confessed. I told him what happened to my Edgeworth that I . was just dying for a smoke, and he understood right away. He said, "Boy, Edgeworth is mighty scarce in these parts, but I reckon I can spare what's left of that can. Help yourself." You can just bet your last nickel that I guarded this Edgeworth with extreme care until I got back to the ."steel."; -. ' , .-. ; ; : , Yours very truly, ; , C. M. Bahr ; Edgewortli .
