Discussion Groups Formed An interesting experiment' is being conducted by the recently incorporated United Church of Chapel Hill in holding a regular Sunday evening discussion group, especially designed for the young men and women of the University .and town. The group will be conducted along lines preferred by the members and will probably include a fif teen minute talk followed by brief discussion. The United Church will wel come anyone interested in tne movement it is launching, and will be especially pleased at the attendance of those having no church affiliations here. The United Church of Chapel Hill was formed by the union of the Christian Church and the Congregational. From its mouth to the source of the Missouri (its largest branch) the Mississippi River is the longest in the world. CHASE MAKES APPEAL TO ALUMNI IN EFFORT TO INCREASE FUNDS Durham, Sept. 30. Sixteen law students will be in their third year at the Duke school this year and are tentative can didates for the bachelor of laws degree, according to officials of the school. During tne past commence ment Duke awarded the degrees of LL. B. to its first third-year law class of four members. Duke law school was founded in 1904 and during its quarter century of operation has graduated a large number of students who have taken leading places in the profession. (Continued from first page) will be used, as in other state universities, to supplement state appropriations. "Even the wealthiest state universities," the statement said, "in the most prosperous states in which the principle of the university support is largest and most amply established, have without exception found an important place for, the util ization of funds from outside sources. This is indeed a uni versally recognized principle in the financing of the modern state university. It seems not to weaken, or diminish, but to supplement and stimulate state support. "There are two problems re garding the maintenance of the university which confront the state. The first is that of pro vision for its routine needsits student increases, maintenance of our buildings, routine in creases in salaries, promotions, clerical adjustments, and so on. These things are the bread and butter of the university and they are being provided for by the state. Then there is question of university growth and development. I do not mean growth in numbers, but growth in stature, in quality and stan dards. In this field of quality the state does what it can. "But, after all, routine needs must be met this year, next year, and to the end of time. The state of North Carolina seems not yet to be at the point at which its financial provisions can go very much beyond this point. And here lies a very real danger to the university. It is none the less real because it is not as obvious as overcrowded dormitories and inadequate classrooms. It needs, perhaps, illustration. Let me list almost at random a few of our prob lems of today, that you may see more clearly what I mean. "New responsibilities develop. With rising salary scales every where our salaries are not ade quate and must be increased. A teachers' college for the system atic advanced ana" graduate in struction of men and women for positions of responsibility and leadership in our growing pub lic school system becomes of great importance for the state, and can be most effectively main tained here. Religious instruc tion, physical education, projects for better teaching of freshmen and sophomores press their claims. Plans for a great col lection of southern historical material -are under way. Provi sion for a system of retiring al lowances becomes of increasing importance. xi.uu u uii aim 011. livery one of these things that I have mentioned, and a host of others, I have been the object of consid eration during the last twelve months. Some of them the state has been asked to undertake. Some must be done now or lost momentum and opportunity re sult." Dr. Chase's announcement was printed in full on the front page of tle Raleigh News, and Ob server and the Durham Herald. It was also given prominence in the Greensboro Daily News, the Charlotte ahd Asheville papers, and in many smaller papers throughout the state. The Durham Herald expressed approval of the aims of the allumni loyalty fund. It's edi torial said in part: "Large numbers have given to private education, and to pub lic education also, in other states, but in North Carolina gifts to public education have been distressingly few. One rea son, of course, has been 'the pov erty, the same poverty ' which also has kept the state from do ing more. "But hundreds of men, even thousands of them, have pros pered in these later years. They love the state in which they were born and which has guard ed and protected them and theirs throughout the years of their development and advancement. The appeal is to them to help their state by helping its insti-j tutions, and by helping its young people to reach the high est development of which they are capable." man in his course in resources and industries. Professor C. P. Spruill has been granted an additional year's leave of absence to become a temporary member of the in structional staff in economics at Harvard university. During this year he will continue his re searches on the public debt of Great Britain. DEBATE COUNCIL TO HOLD 9 MEETS (Continued from page one) the Speaker's Club having promised to notify the Debate Council of Dr. Foust's action be fore that time. In the event of the N. C. C. W. debate the squad will immediately begin work on the query, and the de bate will be held about the mid dle of November. The council plans to hold the second contest shortly after the opening of the winter quarter, or perhaps just before the Christmas holidays this mat ter depending largely upon the date of the first debate. After this, contests, will come more often. The Univer sity of the South will be met at Chapel Hill.

Kentucky is expected to send a team to Chapel Hill in the winter or spring. The an nual Carolina-Virginia radio contest seems a certainty. Last season the Tar Heels met the Virginians at Richmond; this season the Cavaliers journey to North Carolina. In addition to these, efforts are being made to revive the old North Caro- lina-Tulane-Alabama triangle. It seems probable, however, that Louisiana State will be substi tuted for Tulane. -r- -; In all, the Council plans to have about nine intercollegiate debates. "WHICH LETTER IS OPENED FIRST WHEN THE POSTMAN COMES?
