OPINION AND COMMENT
The attention of the American public was strik- ingly caught in the first days of October by the nation- wide drive on the part of Harvard Endowment alumni for an increased endowment of Campaigns from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000. The press of the nation recorded the daily progress of the drive, and, as the campaign continued, analyzed the situation at Harvard which made neces- sary the spectacular appeal for assistance.
"While Harvard was putting on this campaign, Yale was taking stock of the $18,000,000 legacy recently re- ceived plus $600,000 contributed in 1918-19 to the Yale Alumni Loyalty Fund ; Princeton was projecting a drive for $14,000,000 ; and Cornell, which received $1,500,000 during the summer for increasing her sci- entific laboratories, was announcing a campaign for $5,000,000.
□ □□
In stating the purposes for which the income from the endowment will be used at Harvard, the Alumni
Bulletin of October 2nd enumerates the Objective following : A fifty per cent salary in- Presented crease ($600,000 income from) $12,000,-
000 ; A mobile fund to be kept unpledged to meet opportunities which arise for special work or the obtaining of exceptional teachers ($50,000 income from) $1,000,000; Salaries of physical instructors for physical education ($12,500 income from) $250,000; Dental School, salaries for teachers, eighty per cent of whom are now unpaid ($50,000 income from) $1,000,000; Addition to staff in industrial chemistry (50,000 income from) $1,000,000. In addi- tion to these amounts $1,000, 000 is wanted to match a similar amount offered by the General Educational Board for the founding of a Graduate School of Edu- cation, and new chemical laboratories are to be con- structed at a cost of $1,000,000. The Bullet in states that each of these needs is in its way fundamental to keep Harvard moving forward and to prevent her slipping back.
In commenting on the drive at Ithaca, the Cornell Alumni News of September 25th makes clear the use to which its increased income will be put in the fol- lowing questions : ' ' Do Cornell alumni want a faculty
composed of mediocre and obscure men, of no stand- ing in the academic world, engaged in the mere rou- tine of reading old lectures and making text-books to eke out their scanty salaries'? Or do the alumni want a group of virile, wide awake scholars and teachers, in every way abreast of their subjects, who are big enough, in addition to their efficient teaching, to keep Cornell in the front rank of scholarly productive uni- versities?" r— 1 i—| [— 1
The Yale Alumni Weekly of October 10th elaborates the same idea in the following detailed analysis ap- pearing in its leading editorial and in- A National sists that the situation of better pay or Concern consequent deterioration in unversi y
faculties is nothing short of a serious national concern :
"The public statement regarding faculty salaries and the cost of living, issued early this week by the presidents of Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, brings squarely to the fore the real issue in American educa- tional life today. The wages of our instructing staffs are inadequate to the economic demands of the times. The only way to stem the tide away from teaching, which this condition is certain to result in, is promptly to appreciate the situation and raise faculty salaries to an amount that will be adequate. College professors, never overpaid as professional incomes go for the same class of men, today cannot live on their salaries. The universities now realize that this situa- tion must not be allowed to continue and are appealing to their own and the general public for means for relief.
"A clear-cut diagnosis of the situation here brought out by our university presidents was given to the graduates at one of the commencement dinners by a speaker from the Senior class. He remarked on the fact that a class in the mid-nineties contributed at graduation about 20 teachers to the University, whereas but two teachers had come from the last three classes. The present undergraduate generation was reaping the benefits of the mid-ninety teaching in- terest. Rut what would be the condition in 1940? The only answer to this question was that, unless more Yale men were attracted to teaching, the future Yale faculty would be recruited from the outside. The presidents of Harvard, Yale, and Princeton now say that even that source is likely to become fruitless — there is grave likelihood of not being able, pres- ently, to recruit sufficient men of the proper calibre for university w-ork to man the faculties.

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
"This situation has long been forecasted by univer- sity heads of departments who have been looking for new men with whom to build up their faculties. It has become the universal experience that it is more and more difficult to find promising young chemists and engineers, specialists in economics and govern- ment, the old type of scholar in literature and the arts. Modern conditions have thinned the ranks. A young scientific man, unless he is exceptionally situ- ated, will not refuse to choose a ten-thousand-dollar industrial offer over a four-thousand-dollar faculty chair — and it is not always true that the college can pay as much as that. There is no particular mystery about all this. The times pinch the salaried man. If such a man can secure a comfortable living for his family in the world of affairs it is not extraordinary that he should leave an impossibly-underpaid college job to secure it. The tragedy is that so many have done it and that, unless relief comes, so many more will follow.
' ' The universities now propose to face this situation in a business-like way. The need is for faculty-salary increases on a substantial scale. Harvard will devote most of its $15,250,000 fund now being raised, for this purpose. Princeton will use at least half of its $14,000,000 fund for it, Yale has as yet started no fund. Yale proposes to increase her faculty salaries first and raise the money to put them on a permanent footing, afterward. We are able to state that before the end of the present calendar year, the Yale Cor- poration will vote a substantial, if preliminary, raise in professorial salaries retroactive to October 1. The way to meet the teaching situation now facing all the educational institutions of the country, is to make the salaries square with the times. We are glad to sav that Yale will do it."
DDD
The Review has intentionally set forth at length the foregoing financial prospects of the institutions mentioned and it urges every trustee Where We and alumnus of the University to ponder Stand carefully the situation presented in
them. There is no escaping the fact that American universities must materially increase their salary scales if they are to continue to attract and retain scholarly teachers. The economic pull into more remunerative fields has become so strong that not to meet it as Harvard and Yale and Princeton and Cornell are preparing to meet it and as Michigan and Minnesota have already met it — they have added $350,000 and $175,000 to their salaries respec- tively, for the current year — means mediocrity and disaster ahead. Heroic measures must be taken to meet the situation, and these institutions, with fine understanding of what is involved, have committed themselves to the only policy that insures a success- ful solution of the case.
The Review is aware, of course, that the State has recently increased the University's appropriations
both for maintenance and construction. It is also aware that within the past five years a total increase has been made in the salary scale varying from twen- tj*-five to thirty per cent. But the big fact remains that today the present instructional staff is underpaid, that there are several authorized chairs in the University unfilled, simply because the salaries which we can offer will not attract properly qualified men, and that the building program of the campus is not beginning to keep pace with the size of the rapidly growing student bod}*.
DDD
The building program of which we make mention and which must be immediately gotten under way in
order to avert grave injury to the Univer- Buildings sity should concern itself with two pro- Needed jects, each of which in its own way is
vitally important. Thirteen hundred stu- dents are on a campus which can domicile less than half that number. Three and four students are crowded into a room and the upper floors of stores and other quarters not particularly desirable for student occupancy have been called into use. Effec- tive study under these conditions is obviously diffi- cult, and there is little use in coming to college unless an opportunity for application under favorable con- ditions is assured. To relieve the situation and to take care of the numbers that will inevitably increase rapidly, calls for dormitories, and calls for them now. Additional class-room space is equally imperative. More men require more recitation halls, and larger classes require larger rooms. During the first week of the term several classes had to meet out on the campus, and in others students had to stand because they overran the seating capacity. Furthermore, Ger- rard Hall will hold less than half the student body and consequently the University has no place ade- quate for a general assemblage of the entire student group.
President Chase has appointed a faculty committee to consider the other phase of the situation as it af- fects the living conditions of the faculty. Twelve or fifteen new instructors have had to be placed in the village this fall with the result that every available house, whether desirable or not, has been called into service. If men were available for some of the po- sitions mentioned above which still remain unfilled, it would be impossible for the University to secure them because it cannot find homes in which to place them. Rents, quite naturally, have risen in response to the demand, and, again, the meager salaries have been rendered still more restricted in the necessities which they will provide.
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
45
Through this committee, and a committee from the Trustees previously appointed, .action of some sort and at no distant day, is contemplated and must at all hazards be secured.
[Just as The Review goes to press, it is informed that the erection of two dormitories has been au- thorized.]
DDD
Before leaving this extremely vital consideration, we wish to say a final word about another aspect of
the building situation, or rather, the re- Is This pair and upkeep of the buildings on the Our Best? campus as it now exists. Several years
ago we took particular occasion to voice our pleasure in the development of the Arboretum. The reclamation of the former unsightly crawfish bog into the distinctive beauty spot of the University is an accomplishment requiring sustained interest and the employment of illumined study and planning. We also found genuine pleasure in the erection of the gateway at the western entrance to the campus. And we recall a once distinctive entrance to the South Building, and the repainting of the interior of the chapel which, in a way, was quite satisfying. But, strive as we may, we cannot find that in the score of years we have known the University the appearance of its interiors has steadily pursued the direction of an ascending aesthetic curve. Of course we recognize the difference between the transformation which can be wrought by rain and sun and flowers and that by hammer and trowel and saw; but — and this is what we are attempting to say just now — we recognize the difference in the plan, or lack of plan (?) lying back of both.
DDD
We clearly understand that to point out defects in an existing order without at the same time proposing
remedial measures rarely leads anywhere. The Way In Mississippi, to the far south of us, a Out state-wide campaign has recently been
concluded for better salaries for teachers in all the schools and colleges with the result that in- creases have been secured all along the line. In the case of the State University, salaries for full profes- sors were raised 40 per cent and placed at $3,600 an- nually. At Yale and Brown a part of the Alumni Loyalty Fund has been used to supplement the sal- aries of special groups of instructors, and, as already indicated, at Harvard and Princeton and Michigan and Minnesota the alumni or the states themselves have shown the way out.
Messages from alumni and accounts of alumni meet- ings held throughout the country around University Day, bear testimony to the fact that love Univer- for Alma Mater grows with the passing sity Day years and that loyalty to her and intelli- gent interest in her future are more pro- nounced today than they have ever been before.
Here on the Hill the day was fittingly observed on Saturday, the eleventh. President Chase reviewed the figures of registration, announcing that 1,283 stu- dents were present on the campus and that the total registration when students pursuing credit courses in the Summer School and Summer Law School were (according to regular custom) included, was 1,676 — over 400 more than were registered in the entire high record year, 1916-17.
Francis D. Winston, '79, speaker of the day, pic- tured the reopening of the University in 1875 and contrasted its position then after the throes of the Civil War and reconstruction with its commanding place today.
DDD
No report has been made in The Review of the progress of the Graham Memorial campaign since the June issue. At that time, Secretary Let's Com- Coates, reporting direct to the alumni plete This on Alumni Day, announced that pledge cards had been received totaling $70,- 000. During the summer, and particularly during October, a number of enthusiastic alumni meetings have been held in the larger cities of the State with the result that subscriptions have gone well towards $120,000.
While this report indicates progress towards the ultimate goal and fine work on the part of a num- ber of local committees, there remains much to be done yet to finish the campaign in a thoroughly satis- fying way. In some towns the committees appointed have not arranged local campaigns and consequently alumni and friends have not had an opportunity to make their contributions. Wherever this has been the case, and in all centers where final reports have not been made, we urge immediate action. And if you are an isolated alumnus and have no local asso- ciation through which to make your contribution, send your pledge direct to Secretary A. M. Coates. And — do it immediately !
In order to wind the campaign up successfully all local directors have been urged to hold meetings and put on drives within the next two weeks and report at a general meeting of directors in the Y.M.C.A. build- ing at 8:30 o'clock on the night before Thanksgiving. Entertainment for the night will be provided and a

smoker will be held at which plans will be perfected for a final report to the alumni next day at the hour of the game. Again, we say, be here, and let's finish this splendid piece of work.
nnn
There were other things beside the score of the A. and E. game. Carolina men everywhere will hail
a great victory. Carolina and State Col- The Right lege men alike, North Carolinians all, Spirit will hail a greater victory for fine sport
and sound athletics than any touchdown can indicate. Hard, clean playing, generous cheering on both sides, quick recognition of brilliance, and good feeling all around — these were the ear-marks of the greatest athletic victory either institution ever
won. A State College back who had dodged his way fifty yards through, the entire Carolina team save one man was laid low by that man in a tackle that must have shaken his teeth. As he rose, he reached and patted his opponent on the back, helped him to his feet, and grinned broadly. It was as though he bad said — "You kept me from a touchdown and you knocked me silly, but it was a darned good play." Such -spirit on the field and surrounding the whole business of the resumption of athletics should mean the beginning of a long period of high-toned athletic- rivalry. To those who have worked long for this day and who by infinite patience and good sense have brought it about, we say "Good work!" The two State institutions working together can blaze a new trail for sound athletics in the State and South.
THE UNIVERSITY'S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATED
The Celebration of the 126th Anniversary of the Laying of the Corner- stone of the University Proves Most Inspiring Occasion
Featured by a splendid address from Judge Francis D. Winston, of the class of 1879, by the report of a most promising outlook for the year by President Chase, by the reading of the "In Memoriam" list by Dean George Howe, and by the messages of love and loyalty and cheer from Carolina's far-scattered sons, the celebration of University Day which was held this year on Saturday, October 11th, in commemoration of the 126th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of the University, proved a most inspiring occasion.
The procession consisting of the speaker, the mem- bers of the faculty, and the students by classes, formed at the Alumni Building at 10:45 o'clock, and the exercises were begun in Memorial Hall at 11 :00 o'clock. Following the invocation by Rev. E. H. Mc- Whorter, of the Methodist Church, and the singing of "America," President Chase introduced Judge Winston, referring to him as one of Carolina's mos' devoted sons and as Hinton James the Second, the first student of the University after the reopening.
Judge Winston's Address •Judge Winston said in part :
On September 6th, 1875, the doors were re-opened. Our little band of three score students and half dozen professors gathered together on that beautiful autumn day in Gerrard Hall to per- form the simple yet solemn ceremony of thankfulness to Al- mighty God for rekindling the fires of learning upon these ancient altars. Here Gaston and Hooper had spoken ; Polk and Pettigrevv, and Benton and King had studied ; Olmstead, An- drews, Hawks and Phillips had taught. Here for nearly a hundred years love and beauty and virtue; courage and cour-
tesy and honor; all the graces of queenly womanhood and all the strength of heroic manhood, had exhaled the fragrance of the finest civilization of earth. For such there is no death.
I shall not minutely detail the work of those who revived our Alma Mater. It came again to life a happy mingling of old forces with the new. There was a recall to sons who had gone to complete their education in universities in other states, Graves, Grandy and Winston, who became in the new Univer- sity the ideals and exponents of modern manhood and modern learning. With them came Phillips, Hooper, and Kimberly of the old school. Of these Phillips alone was on guard when reconstruction closed the institution. He, with Winston and Graves, then sophomores, had stood seven years before in mourning garments amid the ruin and desolation attending the falling asleep of the old giant. It was fitting that they should assist in the awakening.
I need not call the roll of those who laid these enduring foundations then and since. Most of them have finished the trials of life and returned their talents to the Master. My mind and heart hold them now in reverence even as they were then, when as friends and students we worked together within these sacred walls and within this peaceful village. Let me recall some of them as they pass in majestic pageant before me: Andrew Mickle, essence of integrity; W. P. Mallett, good physician and upright gentleman; John Wesley Carr, thrifty merchant, steadfast friend, modest citizen; Foster Utly, thor- ough workman, strong, thoughtful and true ; H. B. Guthrie, genial, friendly, sympathetic; Paul C. Cameron, majestic figure of southern planter, citizen and patriot ; Walter Leak Steele, scholar, wit and humorist, thrifty in private life, generous in public life, and true as steel in every relation; David Miller Carter, with battle axe of Richard and scimitar of Saladin ; Joseph J. Davis, whose pure and upright heart was wiser than the wisdom of any brain; David Worth, modest and generous; William L. Saunders, strong, brave and wise; De Berniere Hooper, quiet, refined anil scholarly; Charles Phillips, massive and vigorous in mind, heart and body, fond of food, folks and

books; Aclolphus W. Mangum, eloquent, sympathetic and sensi- tive; Ralph Henry Graves, whose splendid genius was later ex- tinguished but not before his name had been inscribed among the few immortals; John Manning, whose pure, unselfish char- acter, warm sympathy for worth, and impressive teaching, en- deared him to all his pupils; William H. Battle, small in stature but large in heart and mind, every ounce of sterling gold; Kemp P. Battle, gentle, devoted, tactful, purposeful, faithful; George T. Winston, positive, fearless, combative, con- structive; and last with tender affection, one who passed away in a distant State, whose mind and heart ever abode within the village of Chapel Hill and the sacred precincts of this hallowed spot, daughter of the old University and loving genius of the new, Mrs. Cornelia Phillips Spencer.
The reborn University began at once to prepare for the mighty establishment we now have here, which is hourly grow- ing in usefulness and power, and in the affection and confi- dence of the people; to weed out the briars and stubble of a past age and to prepare the soil for the magnificent crop we annually garner. It toiled in confident hope for the dawn- ing of this day when its agencies for intellectual and practical usefulness are touching and moulding the every day life of every man, woman, and child in North Carolina. It longed to see the weak and penniless enter its doors and leave them strong and rich in character and purpose to dignify and bless hu- manity by their ministrations.
It dreamed of a day when an indigent youth under the shad- ows of Mt. Mitchell, leaving his mountain home would wearily walk the long journey to this sacred spot and knock for ad- mittance at its doors and gain glad welcome, and enter with high hope; and within its walls by his own unaided efforts lift his struggling soul to sublimest heights, and leaving here in honor become famous as an artist and throw upon canvas the glories and beauties his mighty spirit had gathered in the sun- shine and shadows of our eternal hills. Its daily prayer to Almighty God was to hasten the day when it would became an ' ' Institution where any person might find instruction in any subject." Its hopes have ripened, its dreams have become realities, its prayers have been answered. Esto Perpetua.

MRS. CHARLES PHILLIPS
The death of Mrs. Phillips on October 4 removed from our community its oldest member, one univer- sally beloved, and associated with the University throughout its entire history. Bom at the Falls of Tar River, near the present town of Rocky Mount, N. C, November 5, 1824, Laura Caroline Battle was the youngest of the eleven children of Joel Battle, who was educated at the University of North Caro- lina, where he matriculated in 1798.
Joel Battle's father, Elisha Battle, was a member of the constitutional convention of 1776 that ordained the University. Her brothers, William H. Battle, Richard H. Battle, Christopher Columbus Battle, and Isaac Battle, were students here. Her father-in-law, Dr. James Phillips, was head of the department of mathematics, and his brother, Samuel Phillips, a pro- fessor in the Law School. Her husband was a pro- fessor in the University for thirty years. Two of her sons were graduates of the University, and one of them was professor of agricultural chemistry and mining here. Two of her grandsons are among the recent graduates, while a grandson from Texas and a great granddaughter from Panama have just entered the Freshman class. One of her brothers, Judge Wil- liam H. Battle, was dean of the law school, and to her nephew, the late Dr. Kemp P. Battle, more than to any other one man, is due the honor of reviving the University in 1875. Nephews and great nephews, Battles, Lewises, Cobbs, Homes, have graduated here and served well their day and generation.
Miss Laura Battle came to Chapel Hill in 1844 to make her home with her oldest brother, Judge William H. Battle. From that home she was married to Charles Phillips, tutor of mathematics, 1847. It was from the same beloved home that she was borne by a group of youthful kinsmen on October o, 1919, to rest beside the husband whom -she survived thirty years.
As legislators, trustees, professors, tutors, and stu- dents, the men of her blood have served the Uni- versity with rare devotion.
The Extension Leaflet, A Course on "Americaniza- tion," prepared last year by Mrs. T. W. Lingle, is now being studied by 1,200 women in 66 clubs.

The Mecklenburg County Alumni Association held its an- , nual banquet in celebration of University Day on the evening of October 13th in the assembly room of the Chamber of Com- merce at Charlotte. The alumni present pledged $2,650 to the Graham Memorial Fund and made plans for starting immedi- ately an active campaign for this fund with the end in view of raising an average of $100 for each of the 230 alumni in the county. The alumni unanimously went on record as favor- ing the issuance of $800,000 in bonds for the public schools of Charlotte. The alumni further decided to throw their full support to the proposition of the providing of sufficient funds for carrying on the welfare work of the city and county.
Fred MeCall, vice-president of the association, presided over the meeting in the absence of C. S. Alston, president. L. H. Ranson spoke in regard to welfare work in the city and county. C. W. Tillett, Jr., was named chairman of a committee to assist worthy boys in financial need to enter the University. Major W. E.

Trinity College, and Dr. W. H. Pegram, professor emeritus of Trinity College. He then presented General Julian S. Carr, who extended a welcome on behalf of the University alumni.
Victor S. Bryant took charge of the program for the Gra- ham Memorial Fund. He introduced Albert M. Coates, secre- tary of this fund, who made an able address to the alumni on the matter of the memorial to the late President Graham. Committees were appointed to push the campaign in Durham to an early successful conclusion.
President Chase made a timely address to the alumni in which he outlined the probable course of the University's de- velopment in the. next few years and made mention of the needs which are being encountered. Among others who spoke were R. O. Everett, W. J. Brogden, Dr. Few, and Marion Fowler.
W. J. Brogden, '98, was elected president of the association, and K. P. Lewis, '00, was elected secretary.

Nixon, '10, was elected secretary. Secretary Joe Nixon reports that this association "has much love for and faith in its Alma Mater."
Fayetteville
The Cumberland County Alumni Association held its annual meeting in celebration of the founding of the University in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce at Fayetteville on October 15th. Mr. Geo. M. Rose presided over the gathering. The principal feature of the gathering was an address by President H. W. Chase, who was heard with unusual interest by the alumni and friends of the University present as he told of the work and the needs of the University. It was the first visit of Doctor Chase to Fayetteville since he became president and his welcome was a most hearty one from the Cumberland County alumni. A substantial sum was subscribed to the Gra- ham Memorial Fund by those present at the gathering.
Greensboro
Two hundred alumni and invited guests met at the O. Henry Hotel, Greensboro, on the evening of October 18th, the occasion for the gathering being the annual banquet of the Guilford County Alumni Association. Topics of vital University con- cern were discussed and the meeting was characterized by social fellowship of a very fine type.
John W. Umstead, Jr., was toastmaster for the occasion. E. D. Broadhurst paid a beautiful tribute to his college mate, Edward K. Graham, who "dreamed wonderful dreams for the boys of North Carolina. ' ' A. M. Coates spoke in laudatory vein of the late Dr. Graham, tracing the life of that educator and educational statesman. President Chase spoke briefly, re- ferring admiringly to the work of Dr. Graham, his predecessor. He told of the necessity of perpetuation of the Carolina spirit and was sure the Graham Memorial would play a large part in such an undertaking With a total enrollment of 1303, Presi-

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
dent Chase told his hearers that the University is simply bulg- ing over, every available bit of dormitory space being packed, while the overflow in the town of Chapel Hill is most noticeable. J. W. Umstead, Jr., '09, is president of this association, and O. C. Cox, '09, is secretary.
Lenoir
The Caldwell County Alumni Association held an enthusiastic meeting on October 13th in celebration of the founding of the University. There was a large attendance and the occasion proved a happy one, the alumni voting solidly to back the Uni- versity in her endeavors. Secretary J. T. Pritchett, of the association, sends The Review a copy of the following reso- lutions which were unanimously adopted by the association:
"Resolved, That we hereby approve and endorse the action of the Board of Trustees in electing Dr. H. W. Chase presi- dent of the University. Three-fourths of the alumni present had been students of the University during the years that Doctor Chase was a member of the faculty and he was favorably known to the others, by reputation. We feel that the vacancy caused by the untimely death of the lamented Graham, has been wisely and worthily filled. We extend to Dr. Chase our heartiest congratulations, and our best wishes in the great work he has undertaken, assuring him of our continued loyalty in all things to the cause of the University.''
Lexington
The Davidson County Alumni Association at its annual meet- ing in Lexington on October 13th celebrated the University 's birthday in fitting style, and decided that hereafter there should be two associations in Davidson County, one centering around Thomasville and the other around Lexington. Abbott's Creek is to be the dividing line. Officers of the Lexington branch were chosen as follows: President, J. F. Spruill, '07; vice- president, L. A. Martin, '09; secretary, W. F.

Present as special guests of honor at the banquet were President H. W. Chase, Secretary A. M. Coates, of the Graham Memorial Fund, and Dr. Alexander Boyd Hawkins, a graduate of the class of 1845, the oldest living alumnus of the University.
Judge J. C. Biggs presided over the banquet in the absence of Judge J. S. Manning, president of the association. Dr. Hawkins gave some interesting reminiscences during the course of winch he told of the visit which President James K. Polk made to the University, his Alma Mater, in 1847. President Polk was accompanied by John Y. Mason, Secretary of the Navy, and Lieutenant Maury, afterwards Commodore Maury, of geographical fame.

CAROLINA WINS FROM A. AND E.
First Football Game Between the Two Institutions Since 1905 Goes to Carolina by Score of 13 to 12
Fourteen years ago, in 1905, Foy Roberson's team, with Komy Story and Roy Abernethy as its strong points, fought A. and M. to a 0 to 0 tie in Raleigh. On October 23rd, "Nemo" Coleman's team took up the story again and in the greatest game of football seen in North Carolina in many a day, defeated North Carolina State, 13 to 12.
Romy Story is gone, but Foy Roberson held one of the line-sticks and Roy Abernethy sat on the sidelines. They saw tho largest croud ever assembled at any football game in Ihis State — more than 5,000 paid ad- missions. They saw a game that for rip-snorting ex- citement, ups and downs and thrills, hero-stunts and heart-breakers, will rank high on the list of Carolina victories. They saw Pritchard break through the line, block a punt, recover the ball, and fall over the line with the touchdown that tied the score, and they saw Blount send the ball spinning over the bar with the point that gave the margin of victory.
Fine Feeling Exhibited
The resumption of football relations with A. and E. was marked by a fine show of feeling on both sides. No teams ever fought harder, but it was straight, clean football. The cheering sections were quick to recognize good football by either team, and the alumni and the whole State seemed glad that the two insti- tutions had come together again.
Carolina jumped into the game with a quickness that almost took away the breath. A rush of line at- tacks, a slippery 20-yard return of a punt by Cole- man, and an accurate forward pass from Coleman to Pharr brought the touchdown in the first few minutes. The punt-out for the goal failed. Just before the first quarter ended, Faucette caught a punt and raced up the side-lines 50 yards before he was thrown. Two driving line plays, a successful forward pass, and Faucette dived through center for the first A. and E. touchdown. Gurley failed at goal. The half ended 6 to 6, and it was anybody's game.
Beginning the second half A. and E. received the kick-off and Gurley made the rim of the day. He caught the ball on his own 20-yard line and ran to the Carolina 5-yard line, nearly 80 yards. A plunge netted nothing but Homewood, brother of Roy Home- wood, assistant Carolina coach, received a pass for the second A. and E. touchdown. Again, Gurley failed at goal. Toward the end of the third quarter
came Pritchard 's great play and the victory. The fourth quarter was bitterly fought. Carolina threat- ened twice but did not have the drive and in the last few minutes the Techs with a succession of forward passes advanced well up the field and reached the 25-yard line where a drop kick failed. Campbell freshened up his team with substitutes toward the end and Grimes and Robbins were the only two men who played the entire game.
The two teams were very nearly even but Carolina won because she was a more finished team. State College had greater rushing power but she fumbled badly and nearly every fumble was recovered by Car- olina. The lesson of the Wake Forest game had sunk in. Carolina showed a rugged defense against a heavier opponent and she took advantage of every misplay and worked best when the work counted most. Pharr ran the team with his usual coolness and care ; Coleman was a conspicuous figure as long as his phy- sical condition permitted him to play, and Spaugh and Tenney did splendid defensive work. Grimes, Prit- chard, and Blount were the strong points in the line. Gurley, Homewood, and Faucette starred for the Techs.

NORTH CAROLINA STATE
Cochrane left end Homewood
Harrell left tackle Weathers
Bobbins left guard Floyd
Blount center Whitaker

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
MID-SEASON CONTESTS
North Carolina, 0 — Rutgers, 19
In the first game of the season, the first varsity game since Thanksgiving, 1916, Carolina lost to Rut- gers, 19 to 0. The game was played in New Bruns- wick, N. J., October 4th. A fumble on the first play gave Rutgers the ball within easy scoring distance and the first touchdown came quickly. In the second quarter French, a Rutgers back, broke loose for 50 yards and the third touchdown was made in the same quarter after a series of short line plays in which the superior weight of the Rutgers line told heavily. No further scores were made. Carolina outplaying Rutgers generally in the second half.
North Carolina, 7— Yale, 34
Another long northern trip deprived the team of a good deal of needed practice and Carolina lost the second game to Yale in New Haven, 34 to 7. Yale made only two touchdowns in the first half, one of them coming after a fumble in the first few minutes of play, but the heavier Blue line, with the large number of first rate substitutes available, wore out Carolina in the second half and a total of 34 points was rolled up.
Carolina's touchdown came in the last few minutes of play in a manner that seemed to confuse northern newspaper writers. Lowe, substituting for Coleman, punted from Yale's 40 yard line. The punt was partly blocked but rolled across the goal line where Pharr fell on it while the Yale team looked on. The ball became free as soon as it was partly blocked by Yale. |
Coleman's punting and Tenney's all-round work stood out for Carolina. There was no discourage- ment at Chapel Hill at the result of the game. It was a hard experience for the team but it handled itself very well against a powerful opponent and it learned defensive play that came in good stead later.
North Carolina, 6 — Wake Forest, 0 The first game against a Southern team, and the first on Emerson Field, was played October 18, Wake Forest being defeated 6 to 0. Weather conditions were very bad. Twenty-four hours of steady rain had changed the field into a swamp, and sure running and holding the ball were almost impossible. Caro- lina gained a lot of ground and five times advanced to within scoring distance, only to fumble. The de- fense was entirely satisfactory as Wake Forest made only two first downs, and was never within the 30- yard line. Harrell, Grimes, and the two ends broke up most of the plays before they had started.
The lone touchdown came in the fourth quarter when the ball was advanced by a sustained attack by Tenney, Pharr, and Lowe from the 40-yard line to the 1-yard line. Tenney carried it over, but Pharr could not lift the waterlogged ball over the bar for the additional point.
COLEMAN ELECTED CAPTAIN
Just before the Yale game the Carolina football squad elected as captain James M. ("Nemo") Cole- man, of Asheville. half back and one of the best punters who ever wore a Carolina uniform. Coleman learned football on class teams, and played on the 1916. varsity before he went into the Army. He played in France on the 81st Division team. He is 24 j ears old, 5 feet 10 inches, and weighs 163 pounds. In the spring of 1917 he was one of the varsity pitchers and broke up a Virginia game in Greensboro by driving out a two-bagger in the tenth inning. Coleman is a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity, is well liked and respected on the campus, and his election has met with much favor.
HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL CONTEST
The North Carolina high school football champion- ship contest will be played on Emerson Field as early in December as arrangements can be made.

THE UNIVERSITY IN LETTERS
Uuder a new form and with a fresh access of energy, The Tar Baby onee more takes its place in the life of Chapel Hill as a publication to be read — and dis- cussed— and reckoned with. Surely, its appearance — for though ostensibly a re-appearance, its new dress and tone give it the air of true novelty — is a sign of the newer sophistication and greater flexibility of the student mind upon our campus. Comedy connotes culture ; and the sense of the comic is the mark of a growing sense of self-perception. It is well for the lighter sides of life to be caught and thrown upon the screen for the moment's delectation. If some of the anecdotes bear the earmarks of antiquity, it may be urged in extenuation that there are only nine — is it nine? — original jokes. If the taste of some of these jeitx d'esprits is questionable, their appearance in cold type may serve as the best and readiest reminder that print is not always the best medium for inexpensive witticisms. The clipping bureau has done its work well ; and a number of clever publications are ef- fectively levied upon for contributions which enhance the general readability of the magazine. The pictorial embellishments play a large and welcome part; even more illustrations would meet with a larger measure of appreciation.
An important contribution, from Robert B. Coker (B.S. 1896; M.S. 1897), in charge of Scientific In- quiry, United States Bureau of Fisheries, is the publi- cation : "Habits and Economic Relations of the Guano Birds of Peru." This paper is No. 2298, from the
Proceedings of the United States National Museum, vol. 56, pp. 449-511, plates 53-69. No report to cover the ground of the present paper has ever hitherto been made ; and the report has the additional value due to the fact that the subjects discussed came under the author's personal observation in the course of investi- gations carried on from December, 1906, to August, 1908, for the Peruvian government. "The following- pages, " says the author in his introduction, "deal more particularly with the habits and significance of birds that were observed to possess economic import- ance, but they comprise also some account of other species which are associated with the useful birds as are essential for an understanding of the conditions of life of the birds and their economic significance."
HIGH SCHOOLS WILL DISCUSS IMMIGRATION
The High School Debating Union will have for its query this year the following, Resolved, That the United States should adopt a policy of further ma- terial restriction of immigration. The contest will be carried on this year as it has been for the past seven years, with the schools grouped in triangles and the winners of both affirmative and negative sides coming to Chapel Hill for the final debates.
The Aycock Memorial Cup, donated by the intercol- legiate debaters of the University, will be awarded to the winning school, together with the honor of the State championship. The triangular debates will be held the latter part of March and the final contest earl j' in April.
CONCERNING THE BINGHAM BEQUEST
Three interesting developments in the Bingham Bequest have recently been noted: (1) Attorney Gen- eral James S. Manning represented the University at Louisville on October 7 in an effort to prevent the State of Kentucky from collecting an inheritance tax levied against it of $219,000. The matter is still pending. (2) Press dispatches of September 27 an- nounced that the heirs of the estate residing in New York were instituting proceedings to secure a reduc- tion of the assessment of the estate from $103,000,000 to $55,000,000. (3) In early October the faculty elected Professors L. R. Wilson and George Howe to serve, with President Chase, and Messrs. R. D. W. Connor, Haywood Parker, and J. K. Wilson, appointed by the Trustees at Commencement, as a joint commit- tee to determine upon a policy for the utilization of the Bingham Bequest and a method of selecting Kenan professors. The committee is instructed to report to the January meeting of the Trustees.

LI TAR BABY
The Tar Baby is Carolina's new humorous magazine. It has been reviewed favorably with such college comics as the Harvard Lampoon, Yale Record, and Cornell Widow. You know the quality of these magazines from your reading of the "With the College Wits" department in Judge.
The Tar Baby has been received with great enthusiasm on the campus. Its subscription list is already greater than the combined lists of all other undergraduate publications on the Hill. Ask your son or friend here what he thinks of it.
The Tar Baby fills a long-felt need to enliven the campus. Also it furnishes the alumni and people of the State with the very cream of wit and cartoons.
The Tar Baby appeals to your support not on the grounds of loyalty and devotion, but simply on its merits, because we believe that every page will furnish you many pleasant minutes.
The Tar Baby is not a magazine of local interest only, but can be enjoyed by anyone who ap- preciates a good joke. This is proven by the large number of subscribers from other college communities, and from people over the State.
The New University is just beginning to make its greatest achievments. The Carolina Tar Baby is one of the first examples of what a greater vision and desire to serve w'ill produce. Won't you support it?
Send us your check for $1.75 and we will mail you the twelve remaining numbers as they are issued during the college year. And why not send your friend a copy also?

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
The "Constitution" of To-day— Electrically Propelled
THE U. S. S. "New Mexico," the first battleship of any nation to be electri- cally propelled, is one of the most important achievements of the scientific age. She not only develops the maximum power and, with electrical control, has greater flexi- bility of maneuver, which is a distinct naval advantage, but also gives greater econ- omy. At 10 knots, her normal cruising speed, she will steam on less fuel than the best turbine-driven ship that preceded her.
The electric generating plant, totaling 28,000 horse- power, and the propulsion equipment of the great super-dreadnaught were bui'.t by the General Electric Company. Their operation has demonstrated the superi- ority cf electric propulsion over old-time methods and a wider application of this principle in the merchant marine 13 fast making progress.
Figures that tell the Story of Achievement
Length-624 feet Width— 97 feet Displacement— 32,000 tons Fuel capacity — a million
gallons (fuel oil) Power— 28,000 electrical
horsepower Speed— 21 knots
Six auxiliary General Electric Turbine-Gen- erators of 400 horsepower each, supply power for nearly 500 motors, driving pumps, fans, shop machinery, and kitchen and laun- dry appliances, etc.
Utilizing electricity to propel ships at sea marks the advancement of another phase of the elec- trical industry in which the General Electric Company is the pioneer. Of equal importance has been its part in perfecting electric transportation on land, transforming the potential energy of waterfalls for use in electric motors, develop- ing the possibilities of electric lighting and many other similar achievements.
As a result, so general are the applications of electricity to the needs of mankind that scarcely a homo or individual today need be without the benefits of General Electric products and service.
An illustrated booklet describing the "New Mexico," entitled, ' The Electric Ship," will be sent upon request. Address General Electric Company, Desk 44, Schenectady, New York.

"Educationally the decade that follows the war will be, I believe, the richest and most fruitful in the nation's history."
THESE PROPHETIC WORDS, written by the late Edward Kidder Graham while America was still at war, relate to today — the college year 1919-1920 — to this very moment when North Carolina stands confronted with the problem of building its civilization upon sound, permanent foundations and when the South and the Nation, with newly opened channels of intercourse with the world at large, are planning for the complete fulfilment of their high mission among the nations.
THIS FRUITFUL DECADE, JUST AT THE QUADRENNIUM of the war now ended, calls insistently for the TRAINED LEADER.
THROUGH ITS NEWLY ESTABLISHED SCHOOL OF COMMERCE, its School of Engineering, and other schools and departments, the University offers the thoroughgoing, complete training for the sort of leadership which the new day requires.
COURSES ARE OFFERED IN BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT, Accounting, Foreign Trade, Banking, Transportation, Political Economy, Business Law, Electrical Engineering, Chemical En- gineering, Highway Engineering, Soil Investigation. Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, Journalism, Social Science, Government, Education, Music, and all subjects embraced in the College of Liberal Arts, the School of Ap- plied Science, the Graduate School, and the Summer School.
Instruction through correspondence courses on a wide choice of subjects may be secured at low cost through the Bureau of Extension.
