Vol. 1 No. 48 POULTRY SHOW AT HILLSBORO Will Take Place Probably About the Middle of February. Webb Lands Building MUCH INTEREST IN PLAN v . Plans are being made to hold :a poultry show in Hillsboro for the fanners of Orange county. Probably it will take place about the middle of February. Cheshire Webb, the Hillsboro merchant, has offered to let part of one of his buildings on Hills boro’s main street be used for the show. The plan is to have no more than one coop brought by each •exhibitor. The State’s greatest poultry experts will be on hand to act as judges. R. P. Harris, the agriculture teacher in the chapel Hill school, has been going about the coun ty these last few days enlisting the help of the farmers to make the show a success. They have <expressed enthusiasm about the idea, and are anxious to show specimens from .their flocks. There will be White Leghorns, Brown Leghorns, Buff Orping tons, Wyandottes, Barred Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, Ply mouth Rocks, Cornish Games, and perhaps other breeds on dis play.

H'LL N C Even people who live in Chap el Hill find it hard to keep up with the changes in the layout of the University, and those who have been away a long time become hopelessly confused when they attempt to form a mental picture of the campus from the descriptions they see from time to time. Here is a map prepared by Business Man ager Charles T. Woollen, show ing old and new buildings, those authorized but not begun, and those not yet authorized but included in the program of future construction. The map also shows roads and streets re cently built or soon to be built. “In writing my annual re port,” says Mr. Woollen, “I found it well nigh impossible to make it clear what I was talk- Claussen Coming Jreat Me/./ i Soprano Kiit>;s Here ' Wednesday Julia CLaussen, Metropolitan Opera star and one of the world’s greatest mezzo sopranos, will ing in Memorial Hall next Wed nesday night at 8:15.

CHAPEL HILL, N. C., THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, 1924 ing about, not only because of the many changes but also be cause of the new and unfamiliar names for both buildings and roads. Therefore I decided to have this map made to go along with the report.” As you read the map, you are looking south from the main street of the village. Most of the recent construction has been be yond Cameron avenue and to the left—that is, to the south and east. The furthest building to the south, indicated by the rectangle numbered 15, is the new athletic building built of metal plates and enclosing a space 310 by 110 feet. The students have nick named it the “Tin Can.” This structure is not primarily for spectacles but for what is known Judge Clark’s Address Chief Justice Walter Clark of the North Carolina Supreme Court made an address to the Law School of the University Friday night. While in Chapel Hill he was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Mclntosh. Mr. Saville in Washington Thorndike Saville appeared in Washington a few days ago be i fore the Congressional Commit tee that is considering the pio posed lease of Mussel Shoals in Alabama. The Greensboro News carried a front-page despatch telling of Mr. Saville’s declara i lion that the Shoals should be i developed not only for the mak ing of fertilizers but also, and primarily, for the generation of power for manufacturing. He said that the water powers of North Carolina would be fully in a few years and that North Carolina, as the' foremost manufacturing State in the South, would be in urgent needs of power transmitted from ' outside. |as “mass athletics.” Here hun dreds of students take physical exercise every day. Five bas ketball courts are laid out in the middle of the floor and there is a running track all around. The South road, back of the campus, connecting the I’itts ! boro-Pinehurst and the Raleigh roads, is completed and in use. i The stretch back of the Ceme itery, from the new athletic buil ding to the junction of the new Country Club road and the Ra leigh road, is not yet built but probably soon will be. Under way, and well on toward com pletion, is the road winding j around the old Battle place.

Borrowing freely from Baron Munchausen, the narra tor said that the hunter had been chased up a tree by a fero cious animal. “And just as th Lear was about to get him,” he concluded, “he stuck his arm down the bear’s throat and turn ed the hear inside out.” “Who told you that yarn?” asked Ifreddie. “Oh”, said Jimmie, “a tramp from South Carolina.” Whereat Freddie looked at him scornfully and remarked: “I asked who told you, not who told me.” ** * ► As this Thursday the 31st wears itself away, two stout (Continued on Page 2) side of the may), and is to be continued on to the main street I between the Lawson and the ; Kennett homes.

For example, the South is marked A, Memorial Hall N, and so on.

This map shows the symme trical arrangements of buildings to the rear of the South. Four structures in this group—Steele dormitory, the Saunders and Murphey classroom buildings, and Manning Hall (the law r buil ding)-—are completed and in use. The others are among the not-yet-authorized. The horseshoe at the top of the picture is the “proposed new stadium.” At present this is only an aspiration? but as an as piration it is definite enough. The University’s engineers have been scouting about for some time in search of a suitable site for the stadium that is bound to come, and they think this site a good one. (arr boro’s New Lights i r.twn Is riguiipfi on System of * .. Ilhuvination It is likely that the town of ■ Carrhoro will have new street lights installed soon. ’ Ihe hoard of aldermen have been consulting with Messrs Bennett anil Graham of I he Uni versity Power Plant and have ” been getting estimates of. cost. No definite decision has been reached yet, one of the alder man said yesterday. The cost of the materials and the installation will no doubt be evenly divided between the town and the power plant, if the scheme goes through, and then the current will be charged for at tlie rate of $1 a month for each light, the same rate paid by the town of Chapel Hill. The idea is to have about a dozen lights, distributed about Carr horo where most needed. Miss Emeth Tuttle spoke on ■‘Mother’s Aid” before the health section of the Commuiw ity Club Friday afternoon.
