to the vigorous character ' type . of

As your selection for the editor
ship of the Tar Heel, I offer you an
apology. I am a member, of Sigma
Upsilon literary fraternity and was
connected with the Yellow Journal;
I have offended the students and the
faculty of the University in certain7
respects, and I accept full responsi
bility. ' ' " j
The Yellow Journal was assembled
hastily and without consideration of
the import of several articles, which
should never have been published un
der any conditions, even in a Yellow
Journal; For that matter, the Jour
nal should never have been issued. I
am heartily ashamed of my connec
tion with it.

in a contest over the query, "Resolved
That the Jury System Should , be
Abolished."
The Davidson team composed of E.
D. Kuykendall, of Greensboro, and.
W. Rule, of Charlotte, argued the af
firmative side of the question. The
University speakers were W. E. Con-,
nail yr. of Leasburg, and William . Uz-
zell, of Louisburg.
The debate was held in Gerrard hall
with Prof George McKie, faculty
chairman of -the University Debate
Council, presiding. J. C. Stabler,

Meeting of Debate
Council Wednesday
J. C. Williams, President of the
Debate Council,-announces that there
will be a meeting of that organization
tomorrow night in 210 Murphey at
7:30. v;- .' ' -
Owing to the fact that several mat
ters of policy are to be discussed, it
is essential that the entire council
be present. , ;;
The following issues are to be set
tled:' 1. On what basis shall the gold
monogram be granted in the future?
2: What relation shall Freshman-j
J debating bear to varsity debating?
3. The nature and extent of next
year s ae Dating scneauie.
In consideration of the fact that the
present requirements for the gold
monogram are obviously too easy, the
president asks that each member of
the council bring a written statement
of his plan as to the granting 6f the
monogram. The main problem in
volved is: Shall the power to grant
the monogram be lodged in the coun
cil, or shall it be- granted, according
to some set rule?
Dialectic Senate
To Meet Tonight
John Norwood, President of the
Dialectic Senate, urges that all mem
bers of the senate be present at the
meeting tonight in New West Build
ing at 7:15. Owing to the fact that
the election of new officers is, only a:
short while off, the J president feels
that a renewal of interest is essential.
At this meeting the date for the
Bingham Debate try-out will be set.
Any bona fide member of the Junior
class is eligible for the contest. The
final debate will be held during com
mencement between the Di and the
Phi.
The following resolutions appear on
the calendar: ,
1. "Resolved, That national , adver
tising in, its present form is a curse
to the American Public."
2. "Resolved, That the' system of
student government now iri effect at
the University of North Carolina is
thet best system yet to be successfully
practiced." -.

tamed as secretary and treasurer.

A most cordial invitation that the

,Among the items of business trans
acted by the Academy was an in
crease, in the appropriation - to .the
Journal of the Elisha Mitchell Scien

Following the withdrawal of 194
faculty members on 'Saturday from
Sigma Upsilon, due to publication
and distribution by student" members
of the literary fraternity on Friday
of The Yellow Journal, the Student
Council met Sunday night and began
action against both active members
and initiates of the group. . '
Just "what the action will be has not -
yet been revealed. It is understood,
however, that the incident will be ful
ly investigated with a view to fix-
ing responsibility for the obnoxious
articles, aiyi for the editing and dis- ;
tribution of the paper on the indivi- -duals
concerned.
Sigma . Upsilon was . warned
by the Student , Council last
year that the publication was not ,
wanted oil the University campus, and
Sigma Upsilon accepted the warning. .
In view of the flagrant violation this
year of last year's warning, it is be
lieved that drastic action may be
taken against the parties responsible.
- The Executive Committee of the
faculty in a meeting Sunday censured
the publication and recommended to
the. faculty committee on fraternities
that Sigma Upsilon as a group be dis
bahded on the University campus.
In connection with the action of the
Council, President Ray S". Farris ap
peared in chapel yesterday morning
to explain to students that just action
had been taken against the ' parties
responsible and that ,af ter a complete
review of the circumstances the case .
of each student . concerned -would be V
decided on its own merits.
- The faculty members of the Odd
Number-Chapter of the fraternity
have requested the General Council to
investigate the activities of the .local .
chapter. :
In the letter addressed .to the Presi
dent of the General Council the faculty :
members stated that ( this year's issue
of, the Yellow Journal was coarse, in
decent, ancf libellous in reference to
young girls all of whom are locally
known. . ;
