NUMBER OF FEATURES Meet Is Most Important On Tar Heel Schedule; Varsity To Seek To Keep Eight Year Dual Meet Record Clean. Home from the Georgia Tech Relays .where they set four of six new records, North Caro lina's flying trackmen are work ing intensively in preparation for Saturday afternoon's impos ing home meet with Penh State. Penn State is obviously the toughest nut the Tar Heels will try to crack this year. The meet will be the biggest intersectional track contest in the south this spring. And to make the thing more important, the Tar Heels will be risking a record of no losses in dual meets that has gone by the boards for eight years. At Atlanta, Charlie Farmer, Tar Heel sophomore speed mer chant, set a new record of 9.8 seconds in the 100-yard dash, and Tar Heel relay teams set new records of 1:29.6 for the half-mile, 3 :24.7 for the mile, and 18 :28.2 for the four-mile. t ... Even at this early stage, it seems a sure bet that there will be a great contest between Caro lina's speedsters and Penn State's outstanding distance stars. - The Lions will present a well balanced team of veterans that ranked last year as one of the best outfits in the country, but their biggest strength promises to lie in their distance men. Paul Rekers is I. C. A. A. A. A. two-mile champion and with C. A. Meisinger, "Dick" Det wiler and others gave Penn State an unbeaten cross-country, team last fall. Carolina won its fourth Southern Conference fourth consecutive Southern Conference cross-country stjtle. The Tar Heels who showed the way and set the pace at At lanta Farmer, Slusser, Gay, Nims, Weil, Stafford, Lowry, Baucom, Phoenix and Barkley may go down in defeat, but the odds are for a great contest in every run. The University is making special preparations to accom modate a record crowd for this meet, which will be announced over Western Electric broad casting equipment, and which will be run off on definite time schedule with a number of fea tures for enjoyment of spectators. Alabama Here Today Carolina's tennis players meet tough opposition this af ternoon when they play Ala bama at 3 o'clock on the Car olina courts.

With Charlie Farmer racing away from the classiest fieldpf college sprinters in the south to set a new record of 9.8 seconds in the 100 and the Carolina re lay teams setting three records, the University of North Caro lina delegation won first honors at the Georgia Tech Relays in Atlanta Saturday afternoon. The question in the minds of the spectators was just how far the North Carolina entry would fin ish in front of the nearest rival In all events North Carolina led with five first places, while Flor ida was ' second r with four. Georgia Tech, Mississippi A. & M., and Tulane each won two firsts. The University half-mile re lay team, r composed of Slusser, Gay, Nims and Farmer, set a new record of 1:29.6, beating the old mark of 1 :32.1 held by Flor ida.

Charlie Farmer ran the 100 in 9.8 in the heat and again in the finals to better the previous mark of 10 flat held jointly by four men. The ease with which he ran the dashes and the re lays has been the basis of pre dictions, on the part of officials and sports writers that the Tar Heel ace will better the best American college marks in later meets this year. Brodie Arnold, holder of the University record in the pole vault, tied for second in this event, which was won by Mun-j ger of Florida, with a vault of 12 feet, 3X4 inches. Theron Brown, weight man and broad jumper for the Tar Heels, placed second in the discus, missing first place by about as narrow a margin as is ever seen for this event.

PREYER URGES MEN TO STICK TO JOBS "Don't be ashamed of your first job, give it your best, give more than a day's work for a day's pay, learn all you can about the job ahead, and don't be discouraged." was the sub-i stance of the advice given jun iors and seniors by A. T. Preyer last night at a meeting of the Taylor society. Mr. Preyer, who is vice-president and personnel executive of the Vick Chemical Company, spoke under the auspices of the Taylor Society on "After Col lege What." In his talk he discussed what industry and management expect from the college man, and how the col lege man can prepare himself for the shock which he will find when he begins work. t The importance of extra-cur ricular activities was stressed by the speaker who stated that they were of value if they were of the proper kind. He further stated that the self-help student is of particular importance to industry in that he has shown that he has done something other than spend four years inj loafing at a, collegiate institute. In answering several ques tions which were asked after -he had finished his talk, Mr. Preyer stated that many new fields, particularly in the small indus tries, offer , great opportunities to the young man, and that whether to take employment with a smalL concern or with a large one is a matter of personal choice.

ATrm Wriehd.that J I ; - J I ' Mmmy cam bey and keep) Money can't buy personal friend ships, 'tis true. Your college days will be rich in the friendships that only your personality may win. But in after years, even the best of friendships alone cannot pave the way to your own financial security. When you start your career up on the sure foundation of life insur ance protection unchanged by mar ket flurries and ticker-tape worries , you have a long step toward future independence. To do this while youth and health entitle you to the lowest possible rates, is merely sound business.
