In the first place, it showed ah absolute lack of courtesy upon the part of the students toward a repu table alumnus of the University whom this institution had invited to address the student body on an im portant occasion. In the second place, it most decidedly showed up a streak of rudeness and thoughtless ness on the part of the students who left, so abruptly. Attendance at the meeting was by no means compul sory ; but surely after the program was half completed and Mr. Andrews was about to speak, ordinary polite ness should have restrained those present from making such a disturb ing and unceremonious .exit. "The wicked flee when no man pursueth" and likewise, the rude rush out when courtesy fails to pre vail. - - Price-Tagged . Professors Thursday, September '27, 1923 With Chapel Hill Follij j THE NEW YORK LEGISLATURE LENGTHENS SCHOOL YEAR Thursday, September 27, 1928 PARAGRAPHICS . Judging from the rush of students . from Memorial Hall Monday night in the very midst of College Night pro gram, one would have thought there was a fire or an earthquake in the offing rather than a speech from a distinguished alumnus of the Univer sity. ' ' ' " . . . . And all those who . made for the door were not freshmen either! Now that Chapel Hill has a "real flying school," perhaps some of the numerous squirrels about the cam pus will aspire to become flying squirrels. So many class smokers in one week recall the good old days of last year when the Pickard Hotel went up in flames. " ; :' 1 x. When the Playmakers present Ib sen's An Enemy of the People" this fall, all Chapel Hill's politically-minded should come in a . body to gather some good points on the great game of politics. This comprehensive senior examin ation which must be passed by stu dents before obtaining their degree will descend with a sudden shock up on those who consider courses safely passed and soon forgotten at the end of each quarter. SPOTTED EXERCISE Over in Bynum Gymnasium there x are long rows of round black spots whereupon hundreds of freshmen go v through a series of various contor tions called "gym class", three after noons every week. Not by any fervid desire of their own for the proper ex ercise do they attend so regularly, but to escape the penalties imposed for too many absences To hear the imprecations delivered over the necessity of attending and to recall the afternoons of our fresh man year spent in trudging through the snow or hurrying in the rain to 'reach class on time! we might be prone to feel some stirrings of sym pathy for the freshmen. But' before this sympathy becomes strong enough to be expressed, we smother it down with the realization that, after all, gym is a most important phase of the first year's life and should by no means be dispensed with. In a large university , where only a small percentage of the students participate in varsity and freshman athletics, some other form of exer cise is highly expedient. Were it not for gym classes, most freshmen would take their exercise entirely by proxy, watching the varsity teams practice but making no attempts at personal activity. After spending-the allotted hours on class during the morning, it is certainly desirable that each man work Jnto his afternoon schedule a time for exercise. And unless this period of exercise is included in the requirements for the freshmen, very few of them will form the altogether beneficial habit of regular physical activity of some sort. After the freshman year the little Wanted one college professor, Southerner, Protestant, and Ph.D. preferred; must be a good mixer, a man of sound business ideals, and' a two-fisted fighter who can stamp out the fool notions of the labor agitators that are getting into the heads of our college students. The cotton manu facturers of Georgiadid not use these words at their recent conference on industrial relations in Atlanta, but they might just as well have used them. They voted to establish a chair of social engineering at some leading Georgia college for research work in the field of industrial problems; The proposal sounds innocent enough, but these same s manufacturers have steadily resisted previous attempts to disclose conditions in Georgia mills and have stoutly defended, their eleven-hour day, twelve-hour night, and average weekly wage of less than $12. Now when they imitate the power interests and seek to establish their own professorship, we hope that the colleges of Georgia will be on their guard. The cotton manufac turers have already exerted too much pressure upon t Georgia schools. A cotton manufacturer is Governor of the State. "Georgia Tech" boycotted a progressive, speaker who had exposed mill conditions, after he was attacked by the Manufacturers' Record. Emory university, which is probably the most progressive school in the State, recently ' prevented a professor from engaging in an active campaign against the long working day in the mills. No one can prevent Georgia colleges from accepting a subsidy from the mill owners for any purpose which the trustees desire, but the academic world is entitled to know the fact, the name of the subsidized pro fessor, the method of his choice, and the conditions of his tenure. In the interests of academic decency The Nation proposes to publish these facts concerning any choice which the Geor gia mill owners make. We believe that a purchased article should bear its price-tag on the outside. From The Nation. Mrs. W. - T. Couch and infant daughter have returned from Watts Hospital in Durham and are now- &t home in the Paul Green residence. Mr.: and Mrs. Couch have named the baby Janet Calvert. ' " V Mr... and Mrs. J.

Falkener and their daughter Miss Sarah Falkener, who formerly made their home "in Goldsboro have come to Chapel Hill to reside. They are living in one of Miss Alice Jones apartments on North St. Miss Falkener is a stu dent at the University. Mrs. P. H. Winston and her brother Captain .

Lawsori entertained in honor of . the arrival in Chapel Hill of her daughter Miss Estelle . Lawson, who has been touring Europe this summer. Miss Lawson's itinerary in cluded visits to France, England, Ger many, Holland, Switzerland and Italy. Those invited to meet Miss Lawson were v Mrs. Kinnette, Miss Madge Kin- nette,Miss ; Mary Cobb,' Miss Grace Koonce, Miss Mary Daniel, Miss Helen Thomas, Miss Lucille Farmer, the Misses Samuels, Mrs. J. J. Slade, Jr., and others. As the guests arrived they were received by the hostess v and the honoree and entertained with snap shots taken by Miss Lawson on her trip. After all the pictures were viewed Miss Lawson entertained her guests with her experiences while a- broad. She made the trip from France to England by airplane at which time she occupied a chair in which the Prince of Wales had sat on a previous trip. The guests were then taken in to view the souvenirs and pur chases made in various places, the most interesting of which is a real shiek's robe. Number of days" each year during which school must be in session has been increased from 180 to 100 bv re cent action of the New York Stat I Legislature. Compulsory , attendance upon part-time instruction: by em ployed minors, 14 to 17 years of age, except graduates of 4-year high scnoois, is required m cities having a population of 20,000 t or more, and in districts where there are . 200 or I more such employed minors. Excep tions are made of children mentallv or physically defective. The penalty against parents for permitting their children to violate attendance require ments was increased from $5 or 5 days' imprisonment to $10 or 10 days imprisonment for a first offense. SEXES ARE SEPARATED IN FRENCH SCHOOLS Schools in France for the most nart are "not coeducational, but in some places they, admit both bovs and girls. In maternal schools any child under six may attend. Each com mune is expected to maintain at , least one elementary primary school. In small communes the schools are of necessity mixed, but where two or more schools are supported the usual practice is to separate the sexes. The superior primary schools, the second ary, normal, and technical schools are usually not coeducational. Schools for boys are generally taught by men and schools for girls by women,- jbut some courses in secondary schools for girls are given by men teachers. The proportion of women teachers is in creasing. The universities of France are open to both men and women. ( GRADUATE STUDENTS ADVISE WISCONSIN FRESHMEN Five graduate students of the Uni versity of Wisconsin will assume this fall the responsibility of assisting first-year men students in the selec tion of their courses and in their ad justments to college life. The plan had its inception in -the university last year. The system is continued in the belief that graduate students. themselves just finished with under graduate work, can" render more ac ceptable service to new students than older men whose student days are more remote. The administrative assistants, " as the graduate advisers are called, are under the supervision of the junior dean of the university. Send the TAR HEEL home TODAY, AL, the Rockies!
