Of Damaging Autos Three Duke University students were unceremoniously lodged in the Durham bastile last Friday night, where they remained until next tlay. It seems that the Duke students have been troubled for some time by having their car3 made collegiate overnight, and Friday night officer Schachner heard noises that sounded suspicious. The boys happening to be in the vi cinity, they were arrested and placed in jail. Saturday morning the boys, J. A. Sharpe, Jr., Wade Adams, and Arthur Norbeath, were arraigned before the recorder's court, but they were able to prove that they were in no way im plicated in the practice of stripping automobiles. It is stated that the boys asked to be taken to Dean Wanna maker in order to prove their identity when they were arrested, but this was refused. To Hold Athlectic Conference at N. C.

Baby Deacons Meet Tar Babies Today While the varsity baseball team is idle this week-end, local fans will have an opportunity to see the Tar Babies in action here this afternoon when they meet the Baby Deacons on Emerson Field at three o'clock. These two teams have met most of the Big Five freshman teams, and by comparative scores they are fairly evenly matched. Layton or Green will probably take the mound for the Tar Babies in the attempt to win over the Baby Deacons;-' i r ''t that of giving administrative positions to members of the board. Most stu dents of government feel that the county manager, like the city mana ger, should be an independent of ficial, hired by the board from within or without the county upon the basis of merit alone and without regard to his political affiliations. On the other hand, there is something to be said for selecting a manager from among those .who are already ac quainted with the county and its ad ministrative problems. Guilford of licials express a preference for the existing arrangement; but many citi zens of the county who are perfectly satisfied with the manager's work would have preferred to have him re sign from the board.

Bernard to Address Student Bible Class Tomorrow morning at 9:45 Dr. W. S. Bernard will address the student bible class of the Methodist church on "The Cult of the Dividend." Dr. Bernard is well known to the older students of the Chapel Hill community, as he taught a class of over 200 boys before his work re quired that he cease to participate in this activity. . He has consented, however, to teach the class throughout the re mainder of the Spring Quarter. 1 1 Chemistry Students Leave for New York The following chemistry students, accompanied by F. C. Vilbrandt, left by auto this morning for New York where they will attend the National Chemical Exposition to be held in the Grand Central Palace next week. Those attending are Frank Thomas, Boh Matthews. R. E. Bas3. G. C. McCofmick, and A. Fisher. Delta Sigma Pi Entertains The Delta Sigma Pi fraternity had as its guests sixteen of the Commerce School faculty members at a ban quet Thursday night in the dining room of the Methodist church, Dean Carroll spoke to the organi zation asking for even greater co operation between the members of the Commerce School and the faculty men of that college. Prof, Mc Pheeters pointed out the bright spots in American business life calling for trained specialists. The fraternity intends to make this affair an annual one. Counties Now Operating Under County Managed Method Theatre Entertains Delta Sigma Pi Delta Sigma Phi fraternity will be the guests of the manager of the Ca rolina Theatre, E. C. Smith, at the show tonight. The members of the order should be at the door at seven o'clock with their president. Mr. Smith will entertain another dormitory group nevt week. (Qontinued from page one) he last election. One of the five members has been made chairman, another manager, and a third, pur chasing agent. The chairman and the manager are Democrats and the pur chasing agent is a Republican. The chairman devotes a considerable por tion-of his time to his office and re ceives a salary of $1800. The mana ger and the purchasing agent each devotes his whole time, and the sala ries paid are ?5850 and ?24UU res pectively. The other two members of the board receive $300 a year in ad dition to $5 per diem and mileage for attending board meetings. The pur chasing agent is furnished an auto mobile; the county manager provides and operates his own car. One of the greatest benefits that has been derived from the new plan is the dispatch which business can be transacted. Heretofore a person hav ing business with the county had to wait for a session of the board; now the manager can give him an immedi ate answer. The board has been generous in delegating authority to the manager and he in turn has been careful not to abuse this power. Very often he confers with the chairman or the purchasing agent or both of them before making an important de cision. Nevertheless the power to act without waiting for a session of the board greatly expedites administra tion. The people have already learn ed to bring their concerns directly to the manager, and if he does not have the authority to act he can at least investigate and have a recommenda tion ready for the board when it meets. Centralized Responsibility Another benefit of the county manager system is departmental co ordination and centralized responsi bility. A few weeks ago a serious storm did much damage to the roads and bridges. The manager immediate ly mobilized all the road forces and had the roads ready for traffic with in a few hours. Every subordinate reports to the manager for instruc tions each morning. Telephone con nections have been made with all road camps and other field stations. ine manager spends mucn time m the field himself. in uuiiiora county tne manager does not perform the duties of county accoutant or of tax supervisor. These duties are performed, as they have been for many years, by Willis Booth, formerly county auditor. There is the fullest cooperation between the two offices. Guilford necessarily has a larger staff of officials than the average county requires, but no county needs any less unity. The only objection the writer has heard against the Guilford system is lip TODAY ''You're Guilty!" The dreadful words directed in bewilderment at a dozen shrinking persons, in turn!
