' Or, if the food supply i3 running low, there will always remain the alterna tive of making a goat of oneself and letting the daily Tar Heel minister to the physical as well , as the mental necessities of the moment. Luxury? Yea, verily! The Hello Habit : Habits--be they good or bad are formed easily .enough; but, unfor tunately, they do not seem to be passed on from one generation to an other .as are some characteristics. : A few years ago it was a universal habit here for one student to give a word of greeting to another as he passed him one the campus. Today that custom, like many others, is ob served as fully in the breach as in the keeping. ; Of course with a student body near -ing three thousand in number, it is an impossibility for; one man to -become acquainted with any large per centage of th'e total. But each indi vidual can at least recognize the kin dred bond that connects him with his fellow" University student by that endly "hello ; . by - john mebane Modestly, we offer suggestions, for a revised curriculum. And if the University sees fit to adopt any of it, then we can strut about the campus and throw our but chest. We really don't need it anyway. Our . sugges tions follow: J PETTING 1.

But still-we wonder wTiat happened to the eleventh night? At last "We discover an advantage State College has over the University: its students were given a holiday yesterday in honor of Gardner's, in auguration. , . ' Clara Bow's V"Three -Week-ends" might explain to.Dean Bradshaw even .better than his survey Why freshmen leave the campus on Fridays. In the view of the operatic orgy in Greensboro next week, the Tar Heel ' would like to explain that "The Demon Barber of Fleet ; Street," to be read Sunday night by Professor Russell Potter, is "not a dime-novel rendition of "The Barber of Seville." " ' campaign, put on a year or two ago cannot prove successful un less' the feeling of friendliness ex ists on the campus. To shake" hands with the ' man on your right and in troduce yourself to the man on your left one day in the year maybe ac tuated by the proper motive, but it is only a futile gesture unless the wish to be friendly is a continuous feeling within the campus body. One of the advantages possessed by smaller colleges such as Davidson is the" abundance of friendliness evi denced in the relation of the students to themselves and to visitors. A "hello" is the perfectly natural reac tion to a meeting. It is a part of the general good will prevalent, it is an indication of the spirit of' the school. For in some subtle manner is the "school spirit" of an institution made up of the attitudes, the relations, and the sentiments of its campus. "Hello" is a short and simple word, but its implications are manifold, its signi ficance profound, and its results far reaching. . ' . ' ; The ' recent visit of " the Arkansas lawmakers to the University was most encouraging they appeared to have legislated away all traces of the parent monkey. Another instance of the power of the law. If these Virginia officers start in vestigating student drinking too close ly and too thoroughly, they -will pro bably see double the actual amount of drinking. . ; ' A Sunday Morning -Treat ', All the comforts of home and the luxuries of the leisure class may soon be within the reach of the average student if the proposed plan for a daily Tar Heel is worked out Not only will the news of the campus and town be delivered to the door five times per week, but even Sunday morning will have its paper. Think of the joy of waking up on Sunday morning after the Saturday nigjit before and being able to amble to' 'the door and retrieve a Sunday edition of the college newspaper, then to crawl back beneath the covers and Tead all the happenings of the week end (which one so easily forgets under certain circumstances), all the an nouncements of things to come, and a summary of. student opinion on any thing of moment. . - The only thing then lacking for the complete realization of a home-sweet-home Sunday . morning is the ''break fast. 'And that lack may be remedied by laying in a supply of edibles the night before, so that when': one's starry eves first ope upon 'the morn- CLIPPED A BRIGHT IDEA Plans for bigger ancT better foot ball teams at' the University of Wash jngton seem to be definitely under way, with an announcement from the Women's Federation that University .women may soon be recruited to "sell" Washington to prospective grid-stars. ' Heretofore the business of bring ing home the much sought after foot ball bacon has been in- the , hands ' of the athletically-minded male " support ers of the University. According to reliable authorities, this business has suffered a considerable relapse during the past few years. ( . It was for the canny graduate man ager tohit'upon a long-neglected and potentially powerful sales force to bolster up the, flow of football ma terial to Washington. One co-ed can do more with a big high school touchT down man than two "alumni, three bearded sophomores, and one assis tant coach. , Only no one had ever thought vT3fx. that before. And so very likely the co-eds will be armed with well-organized ' lines and sent out on the trail of the grid, wonders. ';... - ; Go get 'em, girls. Univ. of Wash ington Daily. . ; PETTING 3.

Floating University Students Are Having v A Big Time iir Japan According to radio despatches re ceived in New York, a musical com edy, "Floating Around," has just been successfully presented by students of the Floating University before an audience of students of Doshisha Uni versity in Kyoto, Japan, who . "en joyed it hugely. It is a burlesque on student life aboard the Floating Unit versity. The music and lyrics were written by- two undergraduates, George Buzza, Jr., and Ayres Comp ton, who also directed its production. It has a cast of thirty, including an attractive chorus of singing and danc ing girls. It is to be 'presented be fore various other student' groups in Asia and in Europe. A debating team has just been formed to debate with' students of many lands on. international problems. A dramatic club has already produced on shipboard an American play, and is now busy on one dealing ' (with Oriental .life. This- group has been haunting the Japanese theatres, and scouring around for, costumes and ac cessories in fascinating littje Kyoto and Tokyo ; shops. , Spanish and French tables were organized almost as soon as the Dol lar Liner, President Wilson, sailed from New York harbor on November 8th. At one' table the wife of one of the professors, Mrs. Eunice, Weav er, native South American, has ; been encouraging students, uncertain -of their Spanish, to talk, and' at an other, Mrs. Russell Krauss, instructor in French, has been leading the French conversation. ' . C . , En route to' Japan there, ' was a formal dance every Saturday night on shipboard and much informal danc ing at meal times and evenings. Deck sports soon became very popular, and the, swimming pbl ' was much in de mand. . Between - Panama and San, Francisco wereformed a small or chestra to play chamber music, and another to compete with the Chinese jazz orchestra on shipboard. Having, settled down for the past three weeks in Japan to study on shore, to. make field trips, and to see the sights, the Floating University is once more' on its way around the world. ' It will next visit China, the Philippines and the Straits Settle ments, including Singapore, and will then proceed to Siam, India, Suez, Egypt, Asia Minor and Europe, re turning to New York in June. The experience of the present, cruise makes it clear that , the courses stu dents like best and work most enthu siastically in, are those which:- closely relate what they see and do with what they learn from class, books, and-field trips of observation and in vestigation in the countries.' they visit." All courses in the future will be planned on this basis and most of tlem will treat the world as aunit. International Relations, for instance, will illuminate the relations between nations all around the globe. Stu dents in Sociology 'courses will com pare sociological conditions in America, Hawaii, Japan, China, In dia, and elsewhere. Students of bi ology and geology have' an almost continuous- laboratory before'' their eyes. And so it goes. The Floating University is not a tourist cruise, but a university traveling, with the whole world its laboratory. V Asks Students for Written Criticism of Curriculum y. . ' Seattle, WashJ (IP) The Student Council of .the University of Washing ton has called for a written criticism of the university curriculum from "all students, in an effort to aid in the revision of the university's courses. Man may be a superior ' animal: but the others Jon't scheme to make their world f oolproof , San Franciscc Chronicle. Open Forum HARK EN, O BUCCANEER f CIRCULATORS ! . To the Editor: . . ;. The last time that' the Buccaneers were delivered, (that is thrown in the hall), some thief took about half of them from our floor. It's not the principle of . the thing that we are concerned with, it is the Buccaneers we want. If this were the first time this thing had happened, it - would not be quite so bad; it- is getting habitual. Now what we would 'like to sugest is this: (we areconstructive critics) that the person who delivers the Bucaneer condescend to put them under our doors. The time he would lose in this would be paid by efficient delivery. - We feel sure that delivery would be increased by about at least 100 per cent. 'We want our Buccaneers. Joe H. Mullen. J. Johnson. Let Me Introduce by : J. MAR YON SAUNDERS Alumni Secretary i Willis JamesBrogden - It was a complete surprise on Jan uary J", 1926, when Governor McLean appointed Judge Willis J. Brogden 'Justice pf the , Supreme Court ' of North -Carolina to fill the place left vacant by the resignation of Justice L. R. Varser, for if was not known that this resignation find. appointment were; even being considered. . It all happened so quickly that nobody had the opportunity to . present Judge Brogden for the place. - Governor McLean thought of no other man who could fill the place so well as Justice Brogden, The widespread approval of " this appointment was reflected at the time in the words of Judge James S. Manning, who declared:' "Since that time, more than two ' years of distinguished service- on the bench of the Supreme Court 'of North Car olina which Justice Brogden has ren dered this state has more than ful filled . the "prediction of Judge Man-: ning." .. ' . . : . - .' ' ' Speaking recently from his long observations and experience on the bench, Justice Brogden expressed the opinion" that "I gravely doubt that the percentage of crime per capita has increased in the last 50 years."! During his senior year at the Uni versity, Judge Brogden, with Edward Kidder Graham as a colleague, won the first victory over the University of Georgia in intercollegiate debate. He-graduated here with the class of 1898, being editor-in-chief ef the Tar Heel that year. " " After leaving the University, he became a teacher a't the Raleigh Male Atademy conducted by tne late no lessor Hugh Morson. "Next he was prindpal of one of the, Durnam tity schools, and . later studied law at Trinity and also at .the University. After, receiving his license, he prac tised law in Durham, first in partner ship with Col. S. C. Chambers and . later with Victor S. Bryant. From y 1920 until his appointment to the Su preme Court bench he practised in partnership with Jones Fuller, -and F. L.
