Billys Passage.
SCORE BROOKINGS REPORT
The administration bill to
consolidate State College and
the woman's , college at Greens
boro with the University was
passed Wednesday by the State
Senate, after several amend
ments had been made. Before
2, final record vote is taken on
it, the measure must go back to
the lower house for ratification i
of these amendments. One sug
gested change in the bill, a pro
posal to postpone the consolida
tion until 1933 was defeated by
the Senate.
In the eyes of some of the
senators, the fact that the con
solidation would save the state
a considerable amount of ex
penses in the operation of all
three schools seems to be the
principal point in its favor.
As the measure now stands,
there will be a commission of
twelve experts, six to be named
by the governor and two each
by each of the presidents of the
institutions, who are to study
the problem of consolidation and
report their findings to the
board of trustees to be appointed
by the 1931 assembly.
The Brookings Institute at
Washington has made a report
recommending several changes
tljat might be made in the bill.
A good many of the senators
object to the fact that an in
stitute in Washington should
inow anything about conditions
in North Carolina and there
fore is incapable of making any
suggestions or 'criticism.
Senator Baggett, of Harnett,
aid that he believed that it
would be better to preserve the
individuality of the schools; to
tfote him : "I have a number of
med children, and it might
be more economical to keep them
1 in one hmiRP with rnr as hpari
tut it would never work."
Summed up the measure pro
vides for a consolidated board of
trustees of a hundred members,
a commission of twelve to con
frier the merger plans, and the
mediate going into effect of
fte bill as soon as the House
curs to the several amend
ments which the Senate has
dded.

start from Chapel Hill June 10
for visits . to California, Great

Recommending it for Univer
sity students, a faculty member
here says: "My experience as
instructor on a. study tour has
proved to me that for those with
eager minds, transcontinental

ance as this trip promises, is of
great value, undoubtedly of far
greater value than the usual
summer school experience."

son to Represent Carolina on
Free Trade Question.
The debating teams of Caro
lina and Emory University,

and Carolina will defend the
negative side of the question.
The men representing Caro
lina are Cf D. Wardlaw and 7. A.
Wilkinson. Due to illness Ham
ilton Hobgood, who intended to
debate, will not participate.
The query used for the debate
has been the popular proposi
tion this year and has been de
bated frequently, since the inter
collegiate debating tournament
this spring has selected it. Caro
lina does not enter the tourna
ment, but has argued the ques
tion with several colleges which
wished to practice for the com
ing tournament
For the past eight years Caro
lina has engaged the debating
team of Emeory with the excep
tion of 1929 when the proposi
tion, Resolved: That the United
States should enter the world
court without restriction, was
cancelled. Last year the ques
tion was Resolved: That mod
ern science tends to destroy
theistic faith, and Carolina took
the affirmative.
