DEAN CARROLL
DELIVERS TALK
Advances Reason For The "Low
Levels of Business Exploita
tion Against Which the Public
Mind Rebels."
Delivering a public address
to the students and faculty of
Davidson College on Monday
night, Dean D. D. Carroll of the
school of commerce advanced
two reasons for the "low levels
of business exploitation against
which the public mind rebels."
These reasons the absorp
tion of . isolated, small scale, in
dividually and family owned in
dustries, large scale systems of
interrelated establishments, and
an increasingly detached inter
est by stockholders were the
high spots in the treatment of
his subject, "New Wines in Old
TJottles," which he interpreted
as an industrial readjustment in
North Carolina.
; In the early part of his ad
dress Dean Carroll stated that
agricultural economy was fast
giving ground to a process of
industrialization, with the re
sult that "our life is becoming
more complicated and pur out
look and opportunities broadened.-
Individualism is giving way
to group relationships and con
scious interdependeneies," he
said. The absorption process
meant that intimate relation
ships, a feeling of personal re
sponsibility, and warm, paternal
sympathy which characterized
the earlier stage of industrial
ism were gradually being re
placed, he said, by impersonal,
indirect, cold calculating poli
cies. He did not blame any per
son or persons for this situation
but maintained that it was in
herent in the nature of highly
organized, large scale competi
tive, corporate ownership and
operation.
- Temptations of the public to
buy goods at the lowest price
available, irrespective of the in
tegrity of the business policies
responsible for the low prices,
and the attitude of the stock
holder' who determines and
judges success of management
largely by the size of the cur
rent dividend were factors sup
plementing his earlier and
broader statements of causes re
sponsible, for the low levels.
"The people of North Caro
lina must recognize that our
economic development under
competitive pressure will give
rise to more and more practices
which menace the integrity of
business endeavor or under
mine the social welfare.
"Safety lies in two direc
tions," continued Dean Carroll,
"the better elements in indus
trial fields may cooperate to
eliminate unscrupulous prac
tices. This still leaves some of
the more stubborn and deep
seated exploitation uncontrolled.
The all persuasive and sovereign
power of society, expressed
through social legislation, may
be a necessary safeguard even
to the more far sighted, civic
minded business men them
selves." Library Will Have
Class Bell System
The University electricians
are now at work on the installa
tion of a class bell system in
the library. Eight bells will be
placed throughout the main part
of the building and in the stack
rooms. The system will prob
ably ba completed by the end of
this tree!:.

Chuck Collins Called
South's Wonder Coach
Genial Tar Heel Mentor Being
Given Chief Credit For
Team's Success.
WIN FOR ROCKNE SYSTEM
Collins Is Only 26 Years of Age;
Fetzer and Cerney Able
Assistants.
(By R. W.Modry)
An Irish gentleman by the
name of Chuck Collins is being
hailed as the wonder coach in
the southland these days.
For this man Collins is the
boy coach he is only 26 who
has been the chief tutor for the
University of North Carolina
football team which has smashed
so many records this year.
A check-up reveals that the
Tar Heel team, with 346 points,
now ranks second in the nation's
scoring, preceded only by South
ern California with 400 points
and leads the east and south;
that it has set a new all-time
scoring record for University
teams, with an average of 34.6
points a game as compared with
the 32-point average made by
the 1914 team; that it has won
nine of its 10 games, the only
loss being to Georgia by a 19
to 12 score ; and that it has
won more Southern Conference
games than any other team.
It is generally conceded that
but for a let-up in one quarter
of the Georgia game the Tar
Heels would today be hailed as
southern champions.
The 1929 Tar Heels beat Wake
Forest 48 to 0, Maryland 43 . to
0, Georgia Tech 18 to 7, V. P. I.
38 to 13, South Carolina 40 to
0, Davidson 26 to 7, N. C. State
32 to 0, Virginia 41 to 7 and
Duke 48 to 7. They lost to
Georgia 19 to 12.
The defeats of Maryland, V.
P. I., Virginia and Duke were
by the largest scores any Tar
Heel team has ever piled up on
these rivals.
So much for scoring records,
for the central theme of this
piece is Chuck Collins, a young
man from Oak Park, 111.
Collins is a product of Notre
Dame, a pupil of the famous
Knute Rockne. Collins played
end on the national champion
ship Notre Dame team of 1924,
and Rockne will tell you today
that this former pupil was one
of the greatest ends ever to don
a uniform for any, school. ,
If in a communicative mood
Rockne might also tell you about
a most interesting .moment in
the life of this pupil and coach.

FRESHMEN HEAR
TALIIBY COMER
Says Principles of Modern In
dustry May Be Well Applied
In Life.
The modern industrial policy
of using by-products is based on
principles equally well in life
through the utilizing of excess
effort and passing opportunities,
H. F. Comer told the freshmen
in a talk in chapel yesterday.
Attempting to give the fresh
men a clearer understanding of
some of their problems and dif
ficulties, particularly those
around examination time, Mr.
Comer held up to ridicule some
more or less fallacious ideas that
students frequently evolve. He
said that students prize highly
their personal liberty and their
pride in not being hypocrites.
Due to prejudice against inter
fering with personal liberty, ac
cording to his observation, little
can be done if a student neglects
his work and risks failure.
However, in spite of avowed
frankness, the student himself is
frequently hypocritical in his at
titude toward his negligence.
Mr. Comer said that such con
ditions showed more and more
responsibility to rest with the
student. He urged his hearers
to take note of their duties and
to apply themselves to them.
Most students, according to the
speaker, can greatly increase the
effectiveness of their work by
exercising only a negligible
amount of energy.
Preventing the growth of a
large "casualty list the list of
students who drop out of school,
is one of Mr. Comer's concerns.
He advised the freshmen yes
terday to resort to work in their
difficulties and not in any man
ner, hypocritical or otherwise,
to resign themselves to defeat.

NUMBER 68
TRABUE SUBMITS
REPORT AT MEET
IN GREMSBORO
Believes That High School Ex
aminations Are Very
Successful.
Dr. M. R. Trabue, director of
the bureau of educational re
search in the school of education,
submitted yesterday to the North
Carolina College Conference,
which is meeting at Greensboro,
the 'report of the conference
committee on college admissions,
of which he is secretary. The
subject of this report was the
North Carolina high school
senior examination, prepared
annually by the committee on
college admissions, and admin
istered on February 14, 1929, to
13,000 seniors in the high
schools of the state.
Dr. Trabue, in his address,
compared the 1929 examina
tions, both in extent and in the
nature of the questions asked,
with those of last year. He
showed in this connection that 1
the number of high schools giv
ing the examination and the
number of seniors taking it had
increased, and that several
changes which had been made
in the examination had proved
very satisfactory. Following
this comparison, Dr. Trabue also
showed that, in the median
scores of high school seniors,
according to the sizes of their
schools, the larger high schools
H'avemT6stinvariafely" excelled
the smaller ones. Another in
teresting fact gathered from the
results was the general excel
lence of the younger seniors over
the older ones.
Sophomore Cabinet
Ends Quarter's Work
With Supper Meeting
The final meeting of the soph
omore cabinet was replaced by
a supper served at the Methodist
church at 6:30. J. Elwin Dun
gan, president of the sophomore
cabinet, was the tbastmaster for
the occasion.
The speaker for the supper
was Dr. Howard W. Odum,
Kenan professor of sociology
and head of the department
here at the University. Dr.
Odum, speaking on the subject
of "Creative Work," stated that
he looked forward to a time
when the south would produce
students who would not only
scintillate in the brilliance of
their intellect, but who would
work and create, building a new
and permanent culture for the
south. "The existing conditions
which necessitate the importa
tion of farm and industrial
products from other parts of the
country demand rectifying," con
tinued the speaker. "It is my
belief," stated Dr. Odum in clos
ing, "that the south has started
along the right lines to create,
but there still remains an un
believable amount of work to
be done."

ence in Raleigh will leave the
