It discloses also the origin machinery familiar to us today." Thus The Democratic Party in North Carolina is described by the officials of the Press. Dwelling at some length upon almost every phase of economic and social activity and their re lated problems, Mr. Hobbs of fers "a thorough survey of the state, based on the author's close study of it for 15 years and on official statistical data."

Hill Presents Paper At the mathematics seminar yesterday afternoon M. A. Hill, instructor in mathematics pre sented a paper on the Regression Carolina-Duke Men - Meet Here in Confab (Continued from first page) prepared by John Lang and ap proved by a joint committee of the two societies. The reso lutions were: (1) That meetings of the faculty and student lead ers of the two universities be continued as permanent semi annual occasions;. (2) That the student leaders and publications direct the competetive energy into wholesome rivalry; (3) That the honored and learned societies share in appropriate inter-university occasions; (4) That the student publications announce the coming of distin-. guished speakers of interest and value to both institutions; (5) That the literary societies have alternate joint meetings at least once a year ; (6) That professors of each university be invited to take part in some occasion or meeting at the other university; and (7) That the library facil ities of each university be avail able for joint use of the students of the two universities. All of these resolutions were unanimously passed upon by the assembly, following consid Method of the Correlation Theory. This was the first of lrable discussion upon each one two papers he is presenting. The second paper, "The Normal Fre quency Method of Study" will be presented at the meeting of the seminar next week. Decides Kaiser Did Not Start War; Goes To Apologize To Him New York, Feb. 26. (IP) Convinced after 12 years of study that the former Kaiser was not responsible for the World War, Poultney Bigelow, an author, and former close friend of the German emperor, will sail for Holland March 7, to apoligize to William II. Bigelow, now 75 years old, will be accompanied, by his wife on the pilgrimage to Doom, he said. He added: "The kaiser has been subject ed to many unjust accusations since his troops crossed the Bel gium border. Like many others during the -war, I accepted as true these accusations framed for war purposes. I am con vinced by recently released doc uments that Kaiser Wilhelm, II, did his best to keep peace and that European powers were eagerly awaiting any war. "I will apologize to the Kaiser for having accepted these tales about him that then sounded so plausible." Miss Vest To Teach School Founded By Hoover And His Wife A Kentucky mountaineer, who comes from a county that can't boast an inch of railroad and few passable highways, in a few days will open a school in the biographical sketches by a Vir- P7 lf?rej S the Rapr by representatives of both schools, no one of which spoke unfavorably. Noteworthy among the remarks of commendation and - advice were these: Amos Johnson, a former Duke student, now studying medicine here, de clared that, coming from the same state, the students of both schools should have common in terests, and in view of that fact there should be no difficulty in promoting better relations ; Mr. Stearns from Duke: "Let us change animosity to recipro city"; Mayne Allbright of Caro lina asserted that fraternal and honorary orders are best fitted to carry out the ideas stated at the meeting, by reason of their particular qualifications in mem bership and otherwise ; Editors Holder and Lippard of the Caro lina and , Duke newspaper, re spectively, pledged the support of their publications in this movement; Elwin Dungan, Tar Heel columnist, "hit the saw dust trail" and swore "to write no more cracks at Duke" in his "so-called" column; and Repre sentative James of the Phi As sembly declared that February 26 would go down as a mem orable date in the joint history of Duke University and the Uni versity of North Carolina. Dean F. F. Bradshaw of Caro line was the only faculty mem ber to speak on this occasion. He recalled the days when the debating fraternities of the two institutions had held joint initi ations, and offered examples of interschoiastic relations in other universities. He approved of the idea of a Duke-Carolina de bate, as advocated previously. the school of journalism at Col umbia University. Having completed his course in one year, ne oecame manag ing editor of a trade journal in New York. While on a pleasure trip to Europe in the summer of 1920, he became impressed with the glamor of Paris as a center of notables from everywhere. Consequently he obtained for himself a job on the Paris edi tion of the New York Herald. His two years as a reporter on this paper afforded him the op portunity of meeting many prominent travelers and en countering many interesting ex periences. Two years were e nough, however, and after work ing on the New York Herald this time : in New York for a year and a half, he again found his way back to the University of North Carolina. ' Thus since 1923 he has been winning praise for himself as director of the University news bureau. The football season af forded him the opportunity of displaying his eastern North Carolina hospitality. Visiting sports editors and reporters found the press-box, in the sta dium complete with every re quisite and convenience they could wish for. So thorough were his data sheets and so capable was the handling of the games through his staff, that the new office of publicity di rector on the mythical all-state team was created especially for him. - - 1 wretched from inadequate cloth ing and no food.
