Long-Run Consolidation Views
Difficult to Understand

Perhaps we have not become
mature enough to look at con
solidation in terms of what will
be the result at the end of a
50-year priority schedule. Per
haps we are too hard-boiled and!
too demanding of immediate evi
dences of things.

The following resolution was considered and passed at the De
cember 16, 1935, meeting of the University Athletic Council.
It has not been made public before today because it had not been
officially presented to President Prank Graham until recently.
The resolution is self-explanatory. It was introduced at the Coun
cil meeting by Dr. Foy Roberson, seconded by Mr. Bowman Gray
and was passed unanimously, i
Its text:
Whereas, we, the Athletic Council of the University of
North Carolina, after 10 years of intensive study and stren
uous effort, have developed at the University of North Caro
lina a system of inter-mural and inter-collegiate athletics that
is entirely satisfactory and in keeping with the best tradi
tions of the University of North Carolina and of athletics in
the south; and whereas, a large percentage of the students
at the University of North Carolina are self-help students, and
dependent on help from thej University itself, their friends
and alumni: therefore, be it resolved, that we see no reason
for eligibility regulations to be tampered with or made more
rigid ; that we heartily disapprove of the recommendations
which the National Association of State Universities has
adopted and that we feel that bur eligibility regulations should
be controlled entirely by scholarship, character, previous par
ticipation in athletics elsewhere, one year residence at the Uni
versity of North Carolina before participating in varsity ath
letics and the entire athletic career be covered in a period of
five years. Be it resolved, further, that all students, whether
they be athletes or otherwise, should be on the same basis
and that we see no reason why a boy's eligibility should be in
fluenced by his financial affairs except that he should not re
ceive remuneration for athletic services, per se.

BOOK "EX" CELEBRATES
STATE TOBACCO WEEK
-8
Carolina Tobacco Week is be
ing celebrated in the Book "X"
this week by pipe tobacco going
at a reduced rate. Large tobacco
companies are giving away samples.
Each morning a different com
pany will start passing out pipe
tobacco at 10:30 and will contin
ue until the samples are exhaust
ed. This giving away consists of
letting the smoker buy a can at
he regular price and presenting
him with another free.
The ballyhoo to interest stu
dents in pipe smoking is appar
ently successful because the Uni
versity store reports more sales
yesterday than are usually made
in a week to smokers.

poor exhibition of sportsman

at the Carolina-State basket
ball game Saturday night. "It
was all the more disgraceful,"
he pointed out, "in that Carolina
and State are parts of the same
institution, the Greater Univer

In conclusion he voiced the
hope that Carolina "gentlemen"
would not again give such a de

Pool's denunciation was pre

Coach Carl Snavely, in which he
described amusingly the manner

the good old days.

methods of practicing which the
coach put his team through and
of incidents which took place in
