I J W g' VOLUME XXXVIII Y PREPARING FOR BLUE RIDGE MEET Cabinets Choose Committees To Interest Students in Annual Meeting. Plans for sending a delegation to the Blue Ridge Conference, which is to be held at Blue Ridge June 14-23, were made last Mon day night at the Y cabinet meet ings. It was decided that a com mittee of students be chosen whose duty it would be to talk "Blue Ridge" from now until the time of the conference. This committee is to be composed of Joe Eagles, Clyde Dunn, Mayne Albright, Ike Manning, from the junior-senior cabinet; John Park, Wilbur Kochtitzky, Adrian Daniels, F. M. James, from the sophomore cabinet, and Bob Barnett, Harold Smith, James Kurfees, Charles Rose, from the freshman cabinet. This conference, which has been held annually for many years, is attended by 500 to 600 students from all over the south. Each year this large number of students gather for a period of nine days not only to associate with fellow students from some of the other colleges, but also to have the pleasure of hearing and coming in contact with some of the most influential men in the country. " - Such men as Dr. Sherwood E&ly of New York, Dr. W. W. Alexander of the Southern In terracial Commission, Dr." Chas. W. Gilkey, dean of Chicago University Chapel, : and numer ous other men of this type will be on the program for this con ference. The daily program consists of morning worship, Bible discus sions and campus problems. In the afternoon the delegates are permitted to play baseball, bas ketball, tennis, or they may go swimming, take hikes, or any thing else that they might find in the way of amusement. After supper the program is filled with talks by some of the influential men previously named. This daily program is completed by a forum at which time many topics of interest to the delegates are discussed. " All students interested in going as delegates to this conference are requested to see one of the members of the com mittee. The cost of the whole nine days is small. It has been the custom in the past for the University to have one of the largest delegations, and it is the hope of the Y that such will be the case this coming summer.

The inauguration of John Lang as speaker of the Philan thropic Assembly featured the first meeting of the society for the winter quarter Tuesday night in New East building. Two matters of business were decided and the assembly voted that W. W. Speight, although forced to be absent from all meetings during the fall quarter, was the legal speaker of the assembly for the quarter. The assembly also voted that mem bers would be seated according to the countiesthey represented. Following the business meeting Speaker Lang delivered- his in augural address. He declared that the society although declared dead by cyn ics; and pseudo-wise was funda mentally sound. "It stands to reason that our assembly must be accomplishing something when it continues to turn out leaders and experts in every great profession of life,' V the speakernsaid. He continued, "Of course these people do not re ceive all of their training here, but they do receive "something j here which cannot be obtained anywhere else in their college training, and this is the oppor tunity and encouragement to face the public collectively or in dividually upon any occasion." A more efficient organization is promised by the speaker, who deplored the attitude of those who considered that the society existed merely because it had existed for 135 years. It was his plea that once again the assembly become the clearing house for student discussions. His second plan for strength- emng tne organization oi xne . . -m Mil assembly was the renewal of relations with the Dialectic sen ate. Lang stated that he would begin communications with the president of the Di relative to having the two societies pass upon each other's bills. The third plan was to gam proper recognition for the opin ions and decisions of the assem bly. A new office, reporter general, was created to see that actions of the society be given publicity. The last plan was to invite criticism of the assembly's posi tion by students. The speaker asked for public criticism. In concluding he reminded the members of the great men of the state who had .contributed to the long history of the society and asked the present members to strive to build up the organiza tion to its former position. Presbyterians To Entertain The Freshman Bible Class of the Presbyterian church will have a social Fridav nierht at v 8:00 in the church social rooms. i Sixth Annual Meeting of North I Carolina Newsmen Begins .Here January 15. Lawrence Will Speak Editorial, News Features and 'Business Problems Will Be Principal Topics of Discus sion; Ends January 17. A well-balanced menu is to be offered for the delectation of North Carolina' newspaper folk when they come here next week for the annual sessions of the Newspaper Institute. The topics to be discussed are expected to cover the problems that come up from day to day in almost any newspaper shop, whether in this or that depart ment. rne complete program, an nounced today for the first time, shows that the principal topics are to fall under the headings of editorial and news features, ad vertising, circulation, account ing, and business management, with plenty of experts to lead the discussion of each. But the most impressive thing about the program, perhaps, is that it allows -what ought to be ample time for the round-table discussion of these subjects, which so often in the past, on account of lack of time, have been left hanging in the air. Plenty of Room for Talk The . committee on arrange ments has kept constantly in mind the idea that anybody who has any newspaper problem worth discussing shall be given the time to have it talked over pretty thoroughly. The institute is to open next Wednesday night, January 15, and continue through Friday noon, January 17. The head liner for the opening session will be David Lawrence, publisher of the United States daily and president of the Consolidated Press Association. - (Continued on page four) BRADSHAW SAYS PLAN YOUR WORK New Year's Resolutions Poor Method of Regulation De clares Dean of Students. Speaking ; to the second half of the freshman class in chapel yesterday, Dean F. F. Bradshaw outlined certain policies of living which he thinks in the long run prove themselves far more satis factory than such doubtful prac tices as making New Year's reso lutions. ' ; The dean's talk in short was aimed to encourage definitenes3 of purpose and of activity. "Keep your eye on the thing you are going to do, and start right now to perform those things neces sary to achieving your aim, was his urge as a "first step to ward accomplishment. Then, ac cording to the speaker, one must avoid falling into the habit of making excuses. The mind anx iously embraces this practice, but excuses are of no real value and eventually prove detrimen tal to one's determination and decision. Dean Bradshaw declared that a frequent study of one's duties was" of great value. After such an examination the pertinent question to ask is "Am I doing what is required?" Dean Brad shaw recommends such methods as these for added thoroughness and consequent fruitfulness of results.
