The Alumni
To The Rescue
President Chase's announce
ment of a state-wide effort to
raise funds among the alumni to
supplement state appropriations
for the support of the university j
has met with a highly pleasing
reception from the newspapers.
All of the leading dailies gave
the announcement an important
position on the front page, and
many of them commented favor
ably on the project in their edi
torial columns.
No person familiar with the
needs of the university questions
the fact that funds must be se
cured to supplement the state
appropriations, if the institu
tion is to continue its program
of expansion. A systematic
plan of annual giving by the
alumni, such as the new under
taking provides, is the most
practical method of obtaining the
necessary funds.
Designated as the Alumni
Loyalty Fund, the undertaking
is a dignified attempt to induce
the alumni to assist in the devel
opment of the university. Sup
plementary funds are impera
tive at the present time in order
to meet new responsibilities
that have devolved upon the in
stitution, and the alumni offer
the only means of securing them
In many other states gifts to
public education are frequent,
but in North Carolina they have
been very few. But in the last
few years prosperity has come
to thousands in this state who
were formerly unable to con
tribute to public education, and
now the old plea of poverty is
without foundation. Thousands
of the alumni are able, to con
tribute toward , fulfilling the
needs of the university. To these
men President Chase has ad
dressed his appeal. They are
confronted with" an oppbrtunity
to assist in the future develop
meht of the state by helping
its youth to attain their highest
capabilities.
The Emotional
Aspect
(By John Mebane)
Dr. Ernest R. Groves, of the
university's institute for re
search in social science, in "Men
tal Hygiene in the College and
the University' an article ap
pearing recently in the Journal
of Social Forces, suggests that
the college is an excellent sta
tion for mental hygiene. Dr.
Groves sees the existing lack of
emphasis" placed upon the emo
tional aspect of the student and
the over-attention given, in some
cases, to the acquiring of knowl
edge. Dr. Groves' suggestions are
timely and valuable to an insti
tution such as the University of
North Carolina. As is common
ly accepted, the college assumes
the task of preparing the stu
dent for life. Such an institu
tion, Dr. Groves suggests, is
more than a series of lecture
halls. The aim of college, it is
true, is to dispense knowledge;
but unless it focuses the spot
light more accurately upon the
individual, takes into considera
tion that there are existing dif
ferences in the mental and emo
tional "make-up" of the various
students, much of its effort will
avail little.
Mental hygiene helps the stu
dent to remedy malad j ustment.
There are numerous problems in
the college student's life which,
in order for the student to. ob
tain full growth, must be met
and solved. In the cases of in
dividuals leaving home probably
for the first time are these prob
lems multifold. There is the
great problem of adjustment
to a new, and perhaps strange,
environment. Homesickness re
sults ; waste of time ; the realiza
tion of sex differences.
The university would profit
greatly with the introduction of
a full-time psychiatric special
ist. Lectures could be given;
individuals and their problems
could be studied with a more
microscopic scrutiny. Students
with mental abnormalities are in
attendance at probably every in
stitution in this country. With
the aid of an efficient and capable
psychiatrist these students could
be given attention and their
problems solved with profit
both to the student and to the
university.
Alumni Officers Have
Correct Addresses
Correct alumni address lists
will be supplied to all fraterni
ties and other groups which wish
to arrange homecoming pro
grams in connection with the
university's homecoming on Oc
tober 19, according to Maryon
Saunders, alumni secretary.
The alumni office at 208 South
building has available accurate
addresses of 95 per cent of the
university's alumni, both grad
uate and non-graduate. Letters
offering the use of these address
lists have been sent to all fra
ternities, and already a number
of groups have checked their ad
dress lists with those in the
alumni office. "This service will
be gladly rendered," said Mr.
Saunders yesterday, "to others
who request it."
Homecoming is a big event at
other universities, and North
Carolina officials wish this occa
sion to be observed more at
Chapel Hill, according to Mr.
Saunders. With the dedication
of the library, the Georgia-Carolina
football game, the meeting
of the university's second con
ference on southern education,
and the general homecoming be
ing held all over the state, alum
ni officials expect this, year's re
union to be very successful.
Morgan Examines
Water Structure
In preparing material for his
master's thesis, Karl Morgan,
candidate for the master's de
gree in physics, is making a se
ries of experiments to determine
the molecular structure of water.
While it is generally under
stood that water is composed of
two parts of hydrogen and one
part of oxygen, Mr. Morgan is
trying to determine whether
water is a complex aggregate of
simple molecules, as it is some
times tnought to be, and if this
is the case, just what is the
structure of these complex mole
cules. ,
Womans Association
Meets in Spencer Hall
Athletic program for the com
ing year was outlined to the
members of the women's associa
tion at their first meeting of the
year Tuesday afternoon in-Spencer
hall. A report on athletics
in the past year was also made
to the club. A minor change in
the representation on the coun

was also discussed, i

CHANGES MADE
IN HIGH SCHOOL
FOOTBALL SERIES
E. R. Rankin Announces New
Arrangements for State
Title Contest.
E. R. Rankin, secretary of the
high school athletic association
of North xCarolina, announced
for the first time yesterday a
change in the arrangements for
the annual class A conferences
contest in high school football
for North Carolina high schools.
This year the class A high
schools are divided into two
groups, the eastern group and
the western group. The towns
included in the western group
are Charlotte, Salisbury, Gas
tonia, Greensboro, High Point
and Winston-Salem ; those in
cluded in the eastern group are
Durham, Raleigh, Goldsboro,
Fayetteville and Wilmington.
The winning teams in the two
groups will be determined on a
percentage basis this year in
stead of by . elimination. The
winner of the class A champion
ship in the east and the winner
of the class A championship in
the west will be known by No
vember 23, when the final games
are played. Then, if approved
by the two schools, the champion
teams will play for the class A
state championship in Chapel
Hill November 30 under the
sponsorship of the North Caro
lina high school athletic associ
ation. The annual general contest in
high school football for North
Carolina will be open to 300 high
schools in the state who do not
fall into the class A group. The
two winning teams in this group
will be determined by an elim
ination process, and the two
winning teams will play for state
championship of the general con
test in Chapel Hill on Decem
ber 6. ' '
Alpha Chi Sigma
Entertains
Last Friday evening the Alpha
Chi Sigma fraternity was host
to the new men and members of
the chemistry department at a
reception given in Venable hall.
Dr. F. K. Cameron delivered
the welcome address to the new
men. During his address he
pointed out many of the obliga
tions the young chemist met with
and advised them to begin now
and prepare to meet them. He
told them of some of the things
that would be expected of them
here at the university.
Dr. Venable made the princi
pal address of the evening.
During his talk he recalled many
of his reminiscences here at the
university. "When I began
teaching here the lecture hall
was in the building now occu
pied by the music department
and the laboratory was in the
building which is used by the
Playmakers." Dr. Venable re
lated many other hardships that
the department had overcome.
When the lectures were con
eluded refreshments, consisting
of sandwiches, punch and cake,
were served. There were about
75 people present for this occa
sion.
Why Eskew Didn't Play
Last Saturday,
The lame and the cripple of
the Tar Heel squad joined with
the sound and the fit of taking
clips at Wake Forest plays Sat
urday. Bud Eskew, who played
part of the game at guard, had
five stitches in his head from
an auto accident the first of the
week. Ellis Fysal, at the same
post, forgot an ankle hurt. Jim
my Hudson would have gone in,
but the trainer has his head so
beswathed in bandages to pro
tect ah eye cut, that the man
agers couldn't drive his helmet
on.
Spaulding Hitting Good
Stride This Year.
Yank Spaulding, who has
played fullback for the Tar Heels
for two years and just missed
winning a monogram both sea
sons, appears to be hitting his
stride this year. The hefty
Pennsylvanian started against
Wake f Forest and proved a
smooth cog in an effective back
field. He made regular gains on
plunges, and a pass he intercept-,
ed in Deacon territory led to the
Tar Heels' second score, which
he drove over himself. He is
fine on interference and defense
as well.
Branch and Slusser
Come Through.
Johnny Branch and Rip Slus
ser, ' prized sophomores of the
Tar Heel pack, made their var
sity debut against Wake For
est with creditable perform
ances. Each bagged a touch
down on flashy pass catches.
Branch brought the stands up
several times with elusive and
spectacular broken field work,
and Slusser showed the fastest
of the Tar Heel backs.
Maryland Using Huddle
System This Year.
The Maryland team is calling
signals from a huddle and play
ing an unbalanced line this year.
The Tar Heels played a split
line against Wake Forest Satur
day. Both teams ran up large
scores. There may be something
interesting in the way of coun
ter-defense when the ancient
rivals meet in College Park Sat
urday. Overheard on the campus yes
terday as one of the many side
lights on the rain storm, was this
from a senior in the engineering
school: "I changed to Camels
today, hoping that they might
dry up some of this rain. But I
didn't walk a mile for them. I
wouldn't."
x Correction
In yesterday's issue of the Tar
Heel it was stated that the law
and commerce schools underwent
a number of changes in the fac
ulty. The changes discussed
were those made in the com
merce school only.
