Johnson, sanitary en gineer of the United States Pub lic Health Service, gave a lec ture last Tuesday to the seniors in. the school of civil engineer ing. In his lecture the speaker described the extensive malaria control methods used by the public health service and em phasized, the large engineering aspects of the subject. Throughout his address, John son used moving picture films to show the methods of malaria control, in which airplanes were shown dusting with paris green to control mosquito breeding in large swampy areas. Saville Attends Meeting In N. Y. Professor Thorndike Saville of the engineering school spent two days during the spring re cess attending meetings of the United States Beach Frnsinn iBoard of which he is a member. Inspection was made of the shore and inlet protective pro jects under construction in New Jersey. At a meeting in New York the Board adopted two projects for study in North Carolina, one near Nags Head and another at Fort Fisher. At Both points beach erosion has recently become a serious prob lem. THE DAILY Variety Of Editorial Praise Is Accorded New Book By S.H. Hobbs Not only from the news papers at home but from editors of far away states and from foreign countries there are coming in almost daily bouquets of editorial praise for Dr. S. H. Hobbs North Carolina: Eco nomic and Social, a volume re leased recently by the Univer sity of North Carolina Press. The Boston Globe calls the book "an encylopedia of useful information about the Tar Heel state," and the London Times describes it as a model of social diagnosis, candid and thor ough." Says a review in the New York Times, in part: "Profes sor Hobbs book stands out among books dealing with locali ties because of its author's frankness, his desire to set forth the exact truth, and his deter mination not to admit into his text rhetorical patches of pat riotic outbursts." The Neio York Herald says the book "contains an amazing amount of information upon all possible phases of North Caro lina." H. L. Mencken in the Ameri can Mercury says: "Dr. Hobbs does not hesitate to write plainly about what he discov ers, no matter how unpalatable it may be to idealists. Nor is he shy about offering remedies, some of them of a very drastic nature. The point is that North Carolina is ready and .willing to listen to such candor more, "to pay for it. That is probably the main reason why the state is going ahead. "This volume," says the Bos Phi Hears Haywood's Inaugural Address A large part of the first meet ing of the quarter of the Phi Assembly was given over to Speaker Bert Haywood's in augural address. Speaker Hay wood outlined possible means of making the organization more active and alive. He considered emphasis on county conscious ness of very great importance. The speaker pointed out the fact that the Assembly, modeled af ter the state house should carry its likeness to the point of mak ing the county the unit in the body. He intends to appoint county chairmen to promote the interests of the units. Representative Uzzell intro duced a motion to favor the passage of a luxury tax for the benefit of higher education. The bill was passed almost unani mously. The bill, resolved that a more adequate infirmary should be provided at the University was passed when Speaker Haywood cast he deciding vote in favor of the measure. At the last meeting of the Phi, after the assembly discussed the bill, a tie prevented either passage or re jection when Speaker Haywood withheld his vote until Tuesday night's session. Supper To Be Given By Sigma Xi Society i The local chapter of the Sig ma Xi, national scientific society, will meet for the first time of the spring quarter next Tuesday night, March 31, for a supper at six-thirty o'clock in the Caro lina Inn. The program for this meeting is to be handled by the zoology department, and consists of a re port of the department's re search for the past several months. During the business part of the meeting new members of the society will be initiated and next year's officers elected. Reservations for the supper should be made to Dr. H. D. Crockf ord, assistant professor of chemistry. " - TAR HEEL ton Transcript, "was written es pecially for" those who make North Carolina their home, yet it is also sure of a country-wide welcome by telling the economic and social story of this famous State with a completeness which has not hitherto been even at tempted. , Arraying his wealth of facts against a background of information regarding, physi cal resources, Professor Hobbs describes practically every feat ure of human living and work ing, from race characteristics to education, from agriculture to industry, and from transporta tion and communication to gov ernment." ' . Getting nearer home one finds the Gastonia Gazette say ing, "Every North Carolinian who is interested in his home State should by all means read Mr. Hobbs' book, and, if pos sible, keep it for reference from time to time. Its value from this standpoint alone more than matches the price of the book." "We are agreed," says the Charlotte Observer, "that this book should find its way . into public libraries, school libraries, into the hands of teachers, news paper editors, and all those in terested in knowing the, facts about this State." - That "the book deserves ' a place on the shelves of every citizen interested in the State," is the opinion of The Charlotte News. The Raleigh News and Observer declares:5 "It is a re markable book, the value of which can hardly be over estimated." ' v Ramsay Takes Over Chair of Di Senate The Di Senate held its first meeting of the spring quarter on Tuesday night in its hall in Old West building. The new presi dent, K. C. Ramsay, called the first meeting to order after which he delivered his inaugural address. - President Ramsay, in his speech, favored a program of livelier bills on the calendar for the coming quarter. He asked that the younger senators take a more active part in the discus sion of bills at the sessions of the senate.

President Ramsay appointed Senators Billy McKee and Ed French to serve with McBride Fleming-Jones on the ways and means committee.

Big Three Schools Taking Up Rugby , Rugby football will be in cluded in the sports schedule of Yale, Princeton, and Harvard this spring. This trio together with the U. S. Marines of Phila delphia, and the New York Rug by football club, have formed a quintet of playing teams. " Last spring this group, with the exception of Princeton, play ed nine games, the U. S. Marines and Yale netting the most vic tories. In addition, Yale played the powerful Montreal club, twice champions of Quebec, to a tie. Princeton decided to take up the sport this year. Followers of Rugby point out that each one of the fifteen play ers to a side has a chance to car ry the' ball, run with it, pass, kick, or tackle. It calls for all round team play rather than the work of individual stars. It bears very little resemblance to soccer, or the standard Ameri can type of football.
