Printing- — 

Is  the  Inseparable  Companion  of  Achievement 

Every  activity  of  mankind  is  accompanied  by  printing,  cither  in  advertising 
matter  or  in  forms  that  must  be  used  to  forward  the  activity. 

From  the  registering  of  the  birth  of  a  child  to  the  final  certificate  of  his  death, 
every  dav  printing  must  play  a  part,  and  without  it  man  would  not  achieve 
much. 

//  is  only  from  the  time  that  movable  types  were  invented 
that  real  achievement  in  human  life  was  made,  and  today 
achievement  follows  only  where  printed  matter  is  used,  and 
lots  of  it. 

The  man  who  thinks  he  can  get  along  without  printing  will  soon  find  out 
that  he  will  not  get  far,  and  the  more  he  uses  printed  matter,  the  greater  advance- 
ment he  will  make. 

We  prod u ee  it  in  any  and  every  form.

OPINION  AND  COMMENT 


The  New  Year 

Un  Thursday,  September  28,  the  University  got  off 
to  a  fine  start  for  a  new  year.  Five  new  buildings 
were  put  into  service,  thirty-two  new  teachers  of  vari- 
ous ranks  ranging  from  instructor  to  full  professor 
joined  the  faculty  group,  and  a  student  body  of  1800 
settled  down  to  the  tasks  of  the  campus. 

Not  only  in  new  buildings  and  increased  faculty 
and  student  body  has  the  institution  evidenced  its 
readiness  for  the  big  job  ahead.  The  equipment  of 
offices,  laboratories,  and  libraries  has  gone  steadily 
forward,  and  the  requirements  for  entrance  have 
been  held  to  the  fifteen  unit  minimum  more  strictly 
than  ever  before.  All  along  the  line,  there  has  been 
a  distinct  tightening  up,  and  from  all  indications 
1922-23  should  be,  and  must  be,  Carolina's  greatest 
year. 

nan 

University  Day 

Thursday,  October  12,  the  University's  birthday,  is 
marked  down  in  the  calendar  of  the  University  and 
of  every  alumnus  as  a  red  letter  day.  Although  it 
has  been  celebrated  128  times  in  the  past,  the  129th 
anniversary  will  be  attended  here  on  the  campus  with 
fitting  ceremonials,  and  within  the  State  and  beyond 
its  borders,  loyal  sons  will  gather  to  honor  the  day. 

The  program  for  the  campus  is  distinctly  worth- 
while and  will  bring  many  alumni  back  to  the  campus. 
Wednesday  night,  the  11th,  Secretary  Grant  of  the 
General  Alumni  Association  will  bring  the  class  sec- 
retaries of  the  various  classes  to  the  Hill  for  a  con- 
ference on  class  organization.  The  same  night  the 
department  of  music  will  bring  the  Russian  Sym- 
phony Orchestra  to  Memorial  Hall.  Thursday  morn- 
ing Walter  Murphy,  president  of  the  General  Alumni 
Association,  will  be  the  principal  speaker  at  the 
formal  celebration  in  Memorial  Hall,  and  Thursday 
afternoon  on  Emerson  Field  Carolina  and  Trinity 
will  meet  for  the  first  time  in  twenty-five  years  at 
football.  Thursday  night  the  alumni,  visitors,  and 
faculty  will  attend  a  reception  given  in  their  honor 
by  President  and  Mrs.  Chase. 

Beyond  the  campus  walls,  both  within  and  without 
tin'  State,  local  celebrations  will  be  held  in  accord 
with  the  ideas  of  the  local  groups  and  the  suggestions 
furnished  by  the  Alumni  Association.  Emphasis  in 
all  of  Ilnj  celebrations  will  be  placed  on  the  oppor- 
tunity for  united  alumni  service,  and  it.  is  hoped 
that  the  day,  from  this  point  of  view,  will  be  the 
greatest  in  the  University's  history. 

□   □   □ 
Freshmen  Throng  the  Campus 

Freshmen  from  every  quarter  of  the  State,  some 

700  strong,  thronged  the  campus  the  first  two  days  of 


registration,  and  are  now  started  on  the  great  adven- 
ture of  college  life. 

Among  the  hundreds  of  problems  with  which  the 
University  is  confronted,  the  presence  of  these  700 
new  recruits  constitutes  the  most  difficult  one  with 
which  the  University  must  deal.  Receiving  them, 
housing  them,  assisting  them  in  finding  themselves — 
this  is  the  supreme  task  of  the. institution,  a  task  in 
which  the  University  cannot  afford  to  fail. 

To  meet  the  situation  satisfactorily,  the  University 
has  adopted  the  following  new  measures:  the  Dean  of 
Students  will  devote  the  greater  part  of  his  time  to 
the  particular  duty  of  assisting  freshmen  in  making 
the  transition  from  school  to  college  successfully; 
three  chapel  periods  each  week  will  be  devoted  ex- 
clusively to  them;  and  forty  odd  members  of  the 
faculty  will  act  in  the  capacity  of  volunteer  advisers 
to  the  new  men. 

All  three  of  the  measures  commend  themselves  to 
The  Review  and  all  will  be  watched  with  great 
interest  by  the  alumni.

The  Building  Program 

On  October  12th,  1921,  with  the  Grand  Lodge  of 
Masons  officiating  as  on  the  same  date  in  1793,  the 
University  formally  and  officially  projected  the  pres- 
ent building  program  which  has  already  revolution- 
ized the  campus.  On  the  approaching  University 
Day,  those  who  return  to  the  campus  will  not  only 
find  that  the  anniversary  exercises  are  being  held  in 
a  re-made  Memorial  Hall,  that  the  railroad  is  deliv- 
ering  material  direct  from  cars  to  new  buildings,  that 
468  students  arc  domiciled  in  four  new  dormitories, 
and  that  classes  are  being  conducted  in  one  of  the  new 
recitation  buildings,  but  that  the  builders  are  ahead 
of  the  construction  schedule.  Within  the  eighteen 
months  since  the  adjournment  of  the  legislature  of 
1921,  which  authorized  the  new  buildings,  the  Uni- 
versity has  undergone  a  wonderful  physical  expan- 
sion, and  has  given  evidence  of  the  greatness  to  which 
it  will  in  the  course  of  the  years  attain.

The  New  Recitation  Building 

We  haven't  become  familiar  as  yet  with  the  names 
of  the  new  buildings  on  the  campus,  but  whether  or 
not  we  know  the  name  of  the  new  recitation  building 
now  occupied  by  the  School  of  Public  Welfare,  the 
School  of  (  omnierce,  and  the  departments  of  History 
and  Rural  Social  Science,  there  is  something  we  want 
to  say  about  it.  And  what  we  wish  to  say  is  just  this: 
Finally,  these  four  schools  or  departments,  after  years 
of  separation  and  wandering  in  the  desert  of  the 
campus,  have  found  a  common  abiding  place. 

We  do  not  know  just  what   it   will   mean   to  these

allied  interests  to  be  grouped  comfortably,  with 
adequate  offices  and  well  equipped  classrooms,  under 
one  big  roof.  That  remains  to  be  demonstrated.  But 
we  cannot  escape  the  belief  that  the  close  contacts, 
the  stimulating  exchange  of  ideas,  the  effective  getting 
together  in  cooperative  endeavor,  will  lead  to  a  finer 
esprit  de  corps  than  has  been  possible  heretofore.  At 
any  rate,  we  know  that  with  convenient  offices,  with 
increased  clerical  assistance,  and  with  surroundings 
more  conducive  to  comfort  and  effective  work,  these 
departments  will  be  able  to  make  a  finer  impression 
on  the  material  passing  through  them  than  ever 
before. 

For  the  State  at  large  we  believe  it  will  also  have  a 
significance.  Undoubtedly  North  Carolina  is  begin- 
ning to  think  earnestly  in  the  terms  of  her  economic, 
social,  and  cultural  life.  The  bringing  together  of 
these  departments,  with  increased  facilities  for  the 
investigation  and  direction  of  economic  and  social 
forces  now  at  work  in  North  Carolina,  must  inevitably 
work  to  the  very  great  good  of  all  the  people.  In  the 
completion  of  this  new  workshop  we  believe  we  see  a 
splendid  instrument  shaped  for  the  bringing  about 
of  a  finer  North  Carolina  civilization. 

ODD 

The  Curve  Swings  Upward 

From  time  to  time  we  have  contrasted  the  appear- 
ance of  the  trees  and  grass  and  walkways  of  the 
campus  with  that  of  the  interiors  of  the  various  build- 
ings, and  have  expressed  ourselves  as  finding  the 
former  the  more  pleasing  of  the  two.  And  if  we 
were  called  on  for  an  expression  of  opinion  now,  our 
opinion  would  probably  be  the  same. 

But  there  would  be  a  difference.  The  new  dormi- 
tories, to  be  sure,  are  not  luxurious.  The  hallways 
are  narrow,  and  the  trim  of  the  rooms  is  not  exactly 
a  mahogany  finish.  But  the  construction  has  fol- 
lowed a  plan,  and  the  plan  is  very  worthwhile. 
Furthermore,  the  new  recitation  building,  while 
simply  appointed,  has  fine  light,  and  conveys  the  im- 
pression of  being  well  suited  to  its  purpose.  One  can- 
not walk  through  it  without  feeling  that  he  is  in  a 
building  that  is  distinctly  creditable. 

Last,  but  not  least,  the  annual  overhauling  of 
Alumni  Hall  leaves  it  not  of  less  but  more  attractive 
appearance  on  the  inside.  For  once,  the  President's 
office  has  an  attractive  rug;  the  Business  Manager's 
office,  doubled  in  size  since  June,  is  covered  with  a 
well-laid,  sound-absorbing  cork  carpet  that  doesn't 
offend  the  eye;  here  and  there  in  the  offices  attractive 
steel  filing  cabinets  of  similar  design  replace  the 
wooden  cases  of  many  kinds. 

Of  course,  there  is  much  about  the  interior  of  the 
various  buildings  that  still  falls  far  short  of  pleasing 
the  eye,  and  much  that  more  thought  on  the  part  of 
those  in  charge  of  the  buildings  can  change  for  the 
better  without  a  very  great  expenditure  of  money ; 
but  in  spite  of  that,  the  beauty  curve  of  the  interior 
of  the  buildings  of  the  campus  has  begun  to  swing 
upward ! 

DDD 

The  Old  Dormitories 

Doubtless  there  is  no  need  to  speak  of  the  perfectly 
obvious.  The  administration  and  the  Building  Com- 
mittee have  long  since  thought  of  the  interiors  of  the 


old'  dormitories,  and  are  planning  at  the  very  first 
moment  possible  to  renovate  and  modernize  the  in- 
teriors of  these  century  old  buildings.  First  things 
have  had  to  receive  first  consideration.  But  in  view 
of  the  fearful  dilapidation  of  these  buildings,  and  the 
fact  that  during  the  summer  they  are  jammed  to  the 
limit  by  women  who  have  spent  nine  months  in  North 
Carolina  school  rooms,  we  express  the  hope  that  some- 
thing can  be  done  in  the  immediate  future  for  their 
proper  rehabilitation.  In  the  past,  failure  to  provide 
for  the  comfort  of  these  teachers  possibly  has  been 
excusable,  but  further  delay  cannot  and  should  not 
be  tolerated. 

DDD 

Fifty  Alumni  Set  the  Pace 

It  is  estimated  that  the  Aiumni  Secretary's  office 
will  require  $5,000  to  run  it  for  the  first  year.  No 
revenue  will  come  in  until  the  local  associations  are 
formed,  for  it  must  be  through  local  secretaries  that 
fees  are  collected. 

To  make  it  possible  to  get  the  office  under  way  in 
advance  of  the  raising  of  any  revenue,  fifty  loyal 
alumni  of  the  University  have  pledged  to  advance 
the  necessary  $5,000  to  get  the  work  started.  Will- 
ingness to  do  this  sprang  from  a  deep  realization  of 
the  need  of  a  general  alumni  organization  and  pro- 
gram, and  the  faith  that  the  alumni  generally  would 
support  such  a  movement  as  soon  as  they  saw  a  means 
of  being  brought  into  closer  contact  with  each  other 
and  the  campus. 

If  the  support  of  the  remaining  10,000  alumni 
approximates  in  the  least  the  loyalty  of  these  fifty 
men,  there  can  be  no  question  but  that  here  will  be 
one  of  the  finest  alumni  associations  in  the  country.

THE     ALUMNI     REVIEW 


SECRETARY  GRANT  OUTLINES  PROGRAM 


The  main  points  in  the  ground  work  that  must  be 
done  in  preparing  for  carrying  through  an  alumni 
program  can  be  briefly  laid  out  as  follows: 

1.  Finding  University  men.  Of  the  eleven  thou- 
sand alumni  only  fifty  per  cent  can  be  reached  from 
here  with  our  present  information. 

2.  The  publication  of  an  alumni  catalogue.  This 
will  require  an  endless  amount  of  work — and  accurate 
work.     It  should  be  rushed  to  completion. 

3.  The  gathering  of  the  facts  for  use  in  writing  a 
history  of  the  part  University  men  played  in  the 
Spanish-American  and  great  world  wars.  Some 
work  is  still  to  be  done  in  connection  with  the  record 
of  our  men  in  the  Civil  war. 

4.  The  building  up  of  a  secretary's  office,  with  com- 
plete and  accurate  records  of  all  alumni;  with  the 
means  of  ready  contact  with  any  alumnus  at  any  time 
— the  medium  between  the  present  University  and 
that  great  group  of  men  scattered  throughout  the 
world  that  are  jealously  and  admiringly  watching  the 
growth  of  the  University,  and  happy  to  call  them- 
selves sons  of  Carolina. 

5.  Financing  the  secretary's  office. 

6.  Keeping  the  channel  open  between  alumni  and 
classes  through  The  Alumni  Review,  which  should 
be  built  up  by  alumni  support,  and  going  regularly  to 
10.000  Carolina  men,  rather  than  3,500. 

7.  The  formation  of  more  than  100  local  Univer- 
sity alumni  associations. 

8.  The  formation  of  a  permanent  class  secretaries' 
bureau. 

In  addition  there  are  several  incomplete  or  incipient 
alumni  projects:  1.  The  Graham  Memorial  Fund. 
2.  The  Alumni  Loyalty  Fund.  3.  The  project  of 
the  Washington.  D.  C.  alumni  to  raise  funds  to 
beautify,  embellish,  and  adorn  the  University  campus. 
4.  The  proposal  for  the  Stacy  Memorial,  sponsored 
by  the  class  of  1916.     5.    The  Carolina  Inn. 

Elaboration  of  all  this  work  and  these  projects  will 
be  given  through  Tin:  Review  and  local  gatherings 
from  time  to  time.  The  only  purpose  in  this  layout  is 
to  give  the  alumni  a  feeling  of  the  magnitude  of  the 
work  to  be  accomplished. 

Alumni  Directors  Meet 

The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  General  Alumni 
Association  held  its  first  meeting  in  Greensboro  at 
the  O.  Henry  Hotel  on  August  3rd  ;  considered  several 
matters  of  pressing  importance  before  the  alumni, 
and  outlined  the  work  to  be  attempted  for  the  first 
year. 

Those  present  at  the  meeting  were  President  Walter 
Murphy,  of  Salisbury.  Vice-President  C.  L.  Weill,  of 
Greensboro,  and  Secretary  Daniel  L.  Grant,  of  the 
Association,  officers,  and  from  the  Board  of  Directors, 
Leslie  Weill,  Goldsboro,  representing  the  third  dis- 
trict; Oscar  J.  Coffin,  Raleigh,  fourth  district;  Burton 
Craige,  Winston-Salem,  fifth  district;  Miss  Mary 
Henderson,  Salisbury,  eighth  district;  Robert  Las- 
siter,  Charlotte,  ninth  district ;  and  by  invitation  Clem 
G.  Wright,  of  Greensboro,  W.  ( '.  <  'mighenour,  of  Salis- 
bury, and  Charles  T.  Woollen,  of  Chapel  Hill.  The 
other  members  of  the  Board  are  Robert  II.  Wright, 
Greenville,  second  vice-president ;  J.  C.  B.  Ehringhaus, 
Elizabeth  City,  first  district;  W.  L.  Long,  Roanoke 


Rapids,  second  district;  Miss  Kathrine  Robinson, 
Fayetteville,  sixth  district ;  Isaac  S.  London,  Rocking- 
ham, seventh  district ;  R.  R.  Williams,  Asheville, 
tenth  district;  and  Shepard  Bryan,  Atlanta,  Georgia, 
representing  those  alumni  beyond  North  Carolina. 

According  to  the  provisions  of  the  constitution  there 
are  eleven  appointive  members  of  the  Board  ;  one  from 
each  congressional  district  in  the  State,  and  one  from 
outside. 

Change  in  Constitution  Sought 

Shortly  after  the  adoption  of  the  Association's  con- 
stitution at  the  meeting  last  June  consideration  began 
of  the  provision  which  states  that  the  length  of  the 
term  of  office  for  the  officers  shall  be  one  year.  Many 
prominent  alumni  argue  that  this  does  not  permit 
sufficient  time  for  the  officers  to  institute  and  carry 
through  any  program. 

Particularly  is  this  true  in  the  case  of  the  first 
officers  when  a  general  association  and  program  is 
being  gotten  under  way.  So  far,  the  opinion  ex- 
pressed has  been  unanimously  in  favor  of  the  length- 
ening of  the  term  of  office  to  two  years.  So  persistent 
has  this  become  that  the  Board  of  Directors,  at  its 
first  meeting,  agreed  to  ask  the  local  associations  at 
their  fall  meeting  to  vote  to  suspend  those  provisions 
of  the  Constitution  and  By-Laws  which  provide  for 
the  short  term,  with  the  avowed  purpose  of  asking  for 
the  reelection  of  the  same  officers  at  the  June,  1923 
meeting,  proceeding  on  the  theory  that  "it  is  poor 
policy  to  change  horses  in  the  middle  of  the  stream. 
Anyone  familiar  with  the  work  to  be  done  must 
recognize  that  it  will  not.  be  possible  to  get  further 
than  midstream  by  the  end  of  one  year,  especially 
when  there  was  some  unavoidable  delay  in  getting 
under  way. 

If  the  Association  endorses  this  program,  it  will 
automatically  be  a  mandate  to  the  nominating  com- 
mittee to  replace  in  nomination  the  present  officers, 
and  then  when  they  have  been  reelected  change  the 
Constitution  in  such  manner  as  to  make  the  term  of 
office  two  years.  If  the  change  is  made  beforehand 
and  the  incumbents  are  elected  for  two  years,  it  will 
mean  that  their  total  term  will  be  three  years.  This 
is  contrary  to  the  demand. 

In  order  to  endorse  the  request  of  the  Board  of 
Directors,  local  associations  should  pass  the  follow- 
ing resolution,  or  one  similar  in  effect: 

"Because  we  believe  that  the  work  of  the  General  Alumni 
Association  will  be  hampered  by  the  change  of  officers  at  the 
end  of  one  year,  and  therefore  consider  it  wise  to  continue 
the  present  officers  for  another  year, 

' '  Be  it  Resolved  by  this  Local  University  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation that  'and  they  shall  be  ineligible  for  reelection  to  suc- 
ceed themselves'  of  Article  IV,  Section  5  of  the  Constitution; 
and  'This  committee  shall  nominate  two  men  for  the  office 
of  president,  and  two  men  each  for  the  offices  of  first  vice- 
president  and  second  vice-president;  in  making  the  nomination 
for  first  vice-president  and  second  vice-president,  the  nominat- 
ing committee  shall  provide  for  the  election  of  a  vice-president 
from  each  of  the  two  great  sections  of  the  State:  viz,  the 
eastern  section  and  the  western  section,'  of  Article  II,  Section 
1  of  the  By-Laws,  be  repealed  until  after  the  date  for  reelection 
of  officers. " 

Certain  other  changes  in  the  constitution  were  con- 
sidered by  the  Board  of  Directors,  and  a  committee 
composed  of  Leslie  Weil,  chairman,  Oscar  J.  Coffin,

and  Daniel  L.  Grant  was  appointed  to  prepare  these 
changes  for  presentation  to  the  association  for  vote. 
These  will  he  offered  in  a  later  issue  of  The  Review; 
and  a  vote  called  for  at  the  next  General  Association 
Meeting,  after  the  reelection  of  officers,  if  the  sug- 
gested suspension  discussed  above  meets  with  the 
approval  of  the  alumni  at  the  fall  meetings. 

Plans  for  Alumni  Meetings 

According  to  the  plan  of  the  Board  of  Directors, 
two  meetings  of  each  local  alumni  association  will  be 
held  each  year  throughout  North  Carolina.  One 
meeting  is  to  be  on  or  near  October  12th ;  and  the 
other  is  to  be  a  Christmas  holiday,  clnb-natured 
program. 

Beyond  North  Carolina  there  will  perhaps  be  fifteen 
or  twenty  local  associations  scattered  throughout  the 
world.  Meetings  for  these  will  not  correspond  with 
those  associations  within  the  State.  One  meeting  will 
likelv  suffice,  and  it  woidd  most  naturally  come  on 
October  12th. 

There  are  at  present  in  North  Carolina  only  about  a 
dozen  or  fifteen  active  local  associations.  There  should 
be  one  in  at  least  85  of  the  100  counties,  and  many  of 
the  larger  and  more  densely  populated  counties  should 
have  two  or  more,  making  a  total  of  between  90  and 
100  associations  for  the  State. 

The  efforts  of  the  Central  Office  are  now  being  bent 
toward  the  completing  of  the  work  of  forming  these 
associations.  October  12th  is  near  at  hand  and  no 
local  group  contemplating  the  formation  of  a  local 
association  should  fail  to  use  the  pulling  power  of  the 
University's  birthday  as  a  time  to  gather  Carolina 
men  together.  It  is  already  assured  that  all  the  active 
locals  will  meet  on  this  date  (save  in  two  instances 
where  peculiar  local  conditions  make  it  distinctly  un- 
wise) :  many  that  have  become  inactive  are  reorgan- 
izing, while  a  large  number  of  local  groups  are  form- 
ing an  organization  for  the  first  time. 

Every  alumnus  in  North  Carolina  should  meet  with 
some  group  of  Carolina  men  on  the  12th.  "Where  un- 
organized, organize;  where  disorganized,  reorganize; 
and  where  organized  tighten  your  belt  and  lend  what- 
ever of  influence  you  can  in  causing  others  to 
organize. 

The  program  for  this  October  12th  meeting  should 
be  shaped  up  in  accordance  with  the  spirit  of  the 
occasion:  a  study  of  alumni  work,  both  general  ami 
local  should  he  made,  disseminating  full  information 
about  the  association's  program;  the  University's 
growth,  needs  and  opportunities  should  be  under- 
stood ;  and  together,  alumni  and  alma  mater  should 
rededicate  themselves  to  building  a  greater  Stale,  a 
greater  south  and  a  greater  nation.  Any  institution 
of  whatever  character  must  have  an  outlet  and  pur- 
pose; and  from  the  petty  details  of  daily  life  men 
must  be  constantly  called  to  a  task  if  they  are  going 
to  live  according  to  their  highest  ideals  and  noblest 
purposes.  A  little  leaven  leaveneth  the  whole  lump, 
and  ten  thousand  men  moved  by  the  vision  of  a  Davie  ; 
the  faith,  pride  and  earnest  toil  of  a  Battle;  and  the 
ideals  and  passion  for  public  service  of  a  Graham 
can  transform  a  state — a  nation,  if  need  be.  It  was 
for  this  end  that  the  University  was  created ;  and 
every  man  that  has  benefited  by  its  opportunities,  has 
been  broadened  by  its  contacts,  and  has  enjoyed  its 
life  is  a  co-worker  with  the  University  in  this  mission. 

As  scion  as  the  work  is  fairly  well  under  way  within 
the  State,  attention  will  be  given  to  the  large  number 


of  alumni  living  beyond  the  boundaries  of  North  Caro- 
lina. It  is  expected  now  to  get  the  work  there  under 
way  during  November,  December  and  January. 


CLASS  SECRETARIES  TO  HOLD  CONFERENCE 

Under  the  direction  of  the  Alumni  Secretary,  and 
those  permanent  class  officers  now  residing  in  Chapel 
Hill,  there  will  be  held  in  Chapel  Hill  on  the  evening 
of  October  11th  a  conference  of  all  permanent  class 
secretaries  and  the  formation  of  a  class  secretaries' 
bureau. 

It  is  pretty  clear  to  those  conversant  with  alumni 
work  that  the  class  is  the  most  effective  unit  to  carry 
on  alumni  work.  With  the  increasing  size  of  the  Uni- 
versity student  body  one  no  longer  knows  personally 
the  entire  group,  but  ties  in  with  those  of  his  own 
class  with  whom  he  is  in  college  for  four  years.  This 
results  in  a  sense  of  class  attachment  that  in  many 
instances  overshadows  the  consciousness  of  attach- 
ment to  the  University  itself,  so  far  as  active  interest 
and  cooperative  work  is  concerned. 

Practically  all  classes  since  1900  have  formed  per- 
manent class  organizations  before  the  day  of  gradu- 
ation ;  many  others  have  elected  permanent  officers  at 
a  subsequent  reunion.  A  large  number  of  the  classes, 
however,  have  none  acting  for  them.  The  sub-com- 
mittee of  the  Board  of  Directors  has  instructed  the 
Secretary  to  secure  the  services  of  some  man  from 
each  class  as  far  back  as  1885.  The  work  that  will 
be  required  of  the  representatives  of  the  older  classes, 
whose  ranks  are  already  fast  thinning,  will  be  largely 
that  of  getting  in  touch  with  their  classmates,  and  of 
compiling  accurate  and  complete  data  concerning  their 
lives  and  accomplishments. 

The  secretaries  of  the  classes  of  the  past  twenty -five 
years  will  lie  expected  to  locate  their  classmates, 
gather  information,  publish  regularly  class  histories, 
keep  in  touch  regularly  with  classmates  and  inform 
everyone  of  the  important  happenings,  build  up  the 
class  section  in  The  Alumni  Review,  and  work  coop- 
eratively in  carrying  to  complete  success  the  reunions 
at  University  commencements. 

Every  class  secretary  heard  from  so  far  has  indi- 
cated that  he  will  be  present  on  the  11th  for  the  con- 
ference ;  will  take  part  in  the  University  Day  pro- 
gram on  the  12th.  and  will  see  the  Carolina-Trinity 
game  on  Emerson  field,  the  first  game  between  these 
two  institutions  to  lie  played  in  twenty-five  years. 


AYCOCK   MONUMENT   CONTRACT   AWARDED 

Gutzon  Borglum  was  awarded  the  contract  on  July 
6  for  the  Aycock  monument,  in  memory  of  the  late 
C.  B.  Aycock,  '80.  which  will  probably  be  unveiled  in 
Capitol  square  in  Raleigh  July  fourth  of  next  year. 

The  noted  American  sculptor  has  given  North  Caro- 
lina the  greatest  satisfaction  with  his  Henry  Wyatt 
monument  in  the  square  and  in  the  Vance  memorial 
in  Statuary  hall,  Washington.  He  made  a  $100,000 
war  group  in  Newark,  N.  J.,  and  his  Stone  mountain 
achievement  is  to  be  the  colossal  work  of  the  western 
world. 

The  Aycock  monument  will  cost  $18,000.  The  fund 
was  raised  by  voluntary  gifts  of  people  and  school 
children.  But  for  war's  delays  the  monument  would 
have  been  completed  years  ago.

ONE  YEAR'S  BUILDING  PROGRESS 


Construction  at  the  University  has  gone  ahead  with 
surprising:  speed  in  the  last  few  months.  Surprising;, 
certainly,  in  view  of  the  way  in  which  public  building 
projects  arc  usually  conducted.  The  satisfying  prog- 
ress has  been  due  in  part  to  night  work.  There  have 
been  weeks  at  a  time  when  the  contractor  has  had  a 
force  at  work  under  electric  lights. 

There  is  not  a  man,  woman  or  child  in  North  Caro- 
lina who  has  not  a  direct  personal  interest  in  the  way 
tax  money  is  spent.  Therefore  the  use  by  the  Uni- 
versity of  the  funds  voted  for  improvements  by  the 
1921  legislature  is  a  vital  matter  to  all  the  people  of 
the  State.  It  is  just  about  a  year  since  the  present 
building  enterprise  was  launched,  so  that  this  is  a 
fitting  time  to  review  what  has  been  done. 

The  amount  appropriated  by  the  legislature  winter 
before  last  for  improvements  at  the  University  was 
$1,490,000.  Three-fourths  of  this,  approximately 
$1,100,000,  goes  for  new  buildings.  The  rest  is  for 
furniture,  equipment,  extension  of  the  power  plant 
and  of  water  and  sewer  lines,  construction  of  a  rail- 
way spur  to  save  hauling  costs,  grading  of  parts  of 
the  campus,  reconstruction  of  the  heating  system,  and 
certain  other  smaller  projects. 

Seven  new  buildings  on  the  campus,  four  for  sleep- 
ing quarters  and  three  fur  recitation  rooms,  form  the 
core  of  the  building  plan.  The  first  of  the  dormi- 
tories was  begun  last  October,  and  all  four  are  now 
completed.  Two  were  in  use  during  the  summer 
school.  The  history  and  social  sciences  building  is 
occupied.  The  languages  building,  the  concrete  for 
the  third  floor  of  which  is  already  laid,  should  be 
done  December  15.  The  law  building,  the  last  of  the 
seven,  is  scheduled  for  completion  next  spring. 

Fireproof  Dormitory  Quadrangle 

The  new  dormitories  form  a  quadrangle  on  the  area 
that  was  known  until  a.  vear  ago  as  the  class  athletic 


field,  just  inside  the  east  wall  of  the  campus  and 
adjoining  the  Emerson  stadium.  They  are  of  Colon- 
ial design,  with  walls  of  red  brick  and  with  concrete 
base  and  facings  that  give  something  of  the  appear 
ance  of  limestone.  The  construction  is  fireproof.  Even 
the  surface  flooring,  a  composition  laid  upon  the  con- 
crete, is  non-combustible.  Nothing  but  doors  and 
window  frames  are  of  wood. 

Exclusive  of  the  contractors'  profit,  which  takes  the 
form  of  a  definite  fee,  the  cost  of  each  of  these  four 
dormitories  is  about  $99,000.  Each  will  accommodate 
116  students.  Thus  the  cost  per  student  is  about 
$853.  With  the  "overhead"  counted  in  Ibis  figure 
would  be  raised  to  about  $920.  This  compares  with 
a  cost  of  $2,200  per  student  for' the  Steele  dormitory, 
winch  was  put  up  under  the  direction  of  the  now  de- 
funct state  building  commission  when  costs  were  at 
or  near  their  highest  just  after  the  world  war. 

As  first  designed,  the  new7  dormitories  were  1o  have 
space  for  90  students  each.  But  it  was  found  that  if 
dormer  windows  were  built,  there  would  be  ample 
space  under  the  roof  for  another  story.  The  utiliza- 
tion of  the  fourth  stories  adds  the  equivalent  of  a 
fifth  dormitory.  The  quadrangle  has  a  total  capacity 
of  464  students. 

A  visitor  who  goes  through  one  of  the  dormitories 
gets  the  impression  that  a  fair  balance  has  been  struck 
between  the  luxurious  and  the  primitive.  Certainly 
luxury  is  the  last  word  that  would  occur  to  one  as 
descriptive  of  these  rooms  with  rough  plaster  walls 
and  without  ornamentation  of  any  sort.  Assuredly 
there  are  no  "frills"  here.  On  the  other  hand,  there 
seems  to  he  everything  essential  to  what,  in  the  par- 
lance of  labor  mediation,  is  known  as  a  "decent  stand- 
ard of  living."  There  is  an  electric  light  for  each  of 
two  students  in  a  room.  There  is  a  closet  for  each. 
And  there  is  room  enough  for  the  room-mates  to 
move  about  without  bumping  into  one  another.     On

THE     ALUMNI     REVIEW 


each  floor,  midway  of  the  long  central  corridor,  are 
shower  baths  and  wash  basins  and  toilets.  Ventilator 
shafts  carry  the  used  air  from  the  corridors  up 
through  the  roof. 

It  is  plain  enough  that  the  propensities  of  the  youth- 
ful male  animal  toward  destructiveness — or,  call  it 
carelessness — have  been  taken  into  account  in  the 
drawing  up  of  plans  and  specifications.  For  there  is 
no  use  pretending  that  the  civilizing  influence  of  a 
seat  of  learning  is  quite  civilizing  enough  to  make 
young  men  recently  set  free  from  family  control  ex- 
hibit always  a  tender  regard  for  property  around 
about  them. 

So,  the  walls  are  left  rough,  to  discourage  the  use 
of  pencils  upon  them.  The  doors  and  window  frames 
are  painted  a  dark  red,  a  sort  of  cherry,  so  as  not  to 
show  smudges  easily.  The  floors  and  partitions  and 
fixtures  around  the  baths  are  such  that  apparently  one 
would  have  to  go  at  them  with  malice  and  chilled- 
steel  tools  in  order  to  do  visible  damage.  The  con- 
crete stairways  have  metal  pieces  set  in  as  treads  to 
receive  the  impact  of  the  thousands  of  feet  that  will 
beat  upon  them  in  years  to  come. 

Three  Recitation  Room  Buildings 

As  the  attendance  at  the  University  has  increased 
in  recent  years,  the  need  for  more  teaching  space  has 
become  as  urgent  as  the  need  for  more  living  quarters. 
Every  available  room  has  been  used  for  classes  morn- 
ing and  afternoon,  and  there  has  been  bad  over- 
crowding. 

The  three  structures  going  up  on  what  was  not 
long  ago  the  tennis  reservation,  on  the  left  as  one 
marches  straight  down  the  "axis"  running  from  the 
South  building  to  the  woods,  will  relieve  considerably, 
though  not  completely,  this  congestion. 

Like  the  dormitories,  the  classroom  buildings  are 
of  brick  and  concrete  and  follow  the  Colonial  design. 
Partitions  and  floors  are  fireproof,  but  the  interiors 
here  are  to  have  a  somewhat  less  severe  look  than  the 
rooms  and  corridors  of  the  quadrangle  to  the  east. 
The  most  approved  modern  standards  have  been  ap- 
plied to  the  lighting,  heating  and  ventilation. 

Tt  is  too  early  yet  to  tell  what  will  be  the  cost  of  the 
three  classroom  buildings.  It  will  probably  be  some- 
where near  $170,000  each. 

Unusual  Kind  of  Contract 

The  kind  of  contract  under  which  the  University 
buildings  are  being  constructed  is  an  unusual  one. 
The  trustees'  building  committee,  after  a  year's  ob- 
servation, are  well  pleased  with  it.  They  believe  it 
is  a  highly  economical  plan  and  are  prepared  to  dem- 
onstrate that  to  anyone  who  questions  them. 

Briefly,  the  scheme  is  this : 

The  University  employs  an  engineering  and  archi- 
tectural organization  to  prepare  ail  designs  and  sup- 
ervise the  work,  the  head  of  this  organization  acting 
as  the  executive  agent  of  the  trustees'  building  com- 
mittee. His  staff  includes  an  architect,  a  draught- 
ing force,  accountants,  inspectors  and  sub-engineers, 
lie  is  responsible  for  the  prompt  and  competent  prose- 
cution of  the  whole  job. 

The  profit  of  the  contractors  is  in  the  form  of  a 
stated  fee.  But  they  have  to  guarantee  an  estimate 
of  the  cost  of  each  building.  If  this  guaranteed  esti- 
mate, after  being  approved  by  the  supervising  engi- 
neer, is  exceeded,  then  the  excess  comes  out  of  the 
contractors'  profit.     Tf  the  cost  falls  below  the  esti- 


mate— this  has  happened  already,  in  the  case  of  the 
buildings  completed — the  saving  goes  to  the  Univer- 
sity. 

It  is  provided  that,  in  the  event  the  supervising 
engineer  and  the  contractors  cannot  come  to  an  agree- 
ment on  an  estimate  of  cost,  the  matter  shall  be  arbi- 
trated. Thus  far  no  resort  to  arbitration  has  been 
necessary,  and  none  is  expected.  Altogether  the  con- 
tractors' first  estimates  have  been  scaled  down  several 
thousand  dollars.  Lower  figures  have  been  agreed  to 
after  discussions  with  the  University's  agent,  and  the 
results  have  shown  that  the  revised  estimates  have 
covered  the  cost. 

The  University's  supervising  agent  is  the  T.  ('.  At- 
wood  organization,  with  Thomas  ('.  Atwood  at  the 
head  of  it  and  Arthur  C.  Nash  associated  with  him  as 
architect.  T.  C.  Thompson  &  Bros.,  of  Charlotte,  are 
the  contractors.  The  consulting  architects,  to  whom 
designs  are  submitted  for  final  approval,  are  McKim, 
Mead  and  White  of  New  York.  The  trustees'  build- 
ing committee,  the  ultimate  authority  in  the  direction 
of  the  entire  building  project,  are  J.  Bryan  Grimes, 
chairman;  John  Sprunt  Hill,  Haywood  Parker. 
George  Stephens,  James  A.  Gray,  W.  N.  Everett, 
President  II.  W.  Chase,  Business  Manager  Charles  T.

The  plant — that  is,  all  equipment  used  in  the  con- 
struction is  bought  by  the  University  and  belongs  to 
the  University.  The  present  procedure  is  believed  to 
be  economical  because  the  University  has  in  prospect 
a  six  years'  building  program,  in  order  to  meet  the 
pressure  of  rapidly  increasing  attendance,  and  a 
large  part  of  the  plant  can  be  kept  and  used  through 
the  six  years. 

The  total  overhead  cost,  including  the  services  of 
consulting  architects,  supervising  engineer  and  con- 
tractors, was  placed  by  President  Chase,  in  an  address 
to  the  alumni  commencement  week,  at  between  ten 
and  eleven  per  cent  of  the  entire  outlay  for  new 
buildings.  This  is  plainly  a  considerable  saving  as 
compared  with  the  percentage  that  the  architect  and 
the  profit  that  the  contractor  commonly  receive  under 
the  lump-sum  or  cost-plus  plan.  In  talking  to  the 
alumni,  President  Chase  said : 

"Next  year  the  University  will  be  double  its  size 
for  the  three  years  just  preceding  the  war — its  high 
water  mark  to  that  time.  There  are  no  indications 
whatever  that  the  growth  is  going  to  be  checked.  You 
need  only  recall  how  the  high  schools  in  your  own 
communities  are  growing,  how  they  are  crowded,  need- 
ing expansion,  to  realize  that  the  sources  of  supply 
for  the  University  are  steadily  increasing. 

' '  The  material  University  is  yet  in  its  infancy.  Our 
hands  must  not  slacken,  nor  our  spirit  falter,  until 
the  task  is  done. 

"We  are  merely  keeping  abreast  of  our  growth, 
and  hardly  that.  Two  years  of  building  inactivity 
now  would  again  submerge  us  under  the  rising  tide." 

Railway  Spur  Has  Saved  Much 

One  economy  that  has  been  the  source  of  genuine 
satisfaction  to  the  University  authorities  is  the  rail- 
way spur,  about  a  mile  and  a  quarter  long  from  ( larr- 
boro  station  to  the  campus.  The  highway  from  Carr- 
boro  to  Chapel  Hill  is  of  dirt  and  would  soon  have 
been  put  in  bad  condition  by  the  haiiling  of  large 
quantities   of   materials.     Indeed    it   might   have  be-

come,  in  rainy  weather  impassable  for  heavy  trucks. 
To  avoid  this  difficulty,  it  was  decided  to  build  the 
spur  so  that  freight  cars  could  be  brought  to  within  a 
few  feet  of  the  building  operations. 

The  record  of  transportation  charges  compared 
with  what  they  would  have  been  if  materials  had  been 
brought  by  trucks  from  Carrboro,  shows  that  the  en- 
tire cost  of  the  spur  will  be  saved  before  the  pro- 
jected six-year  program  is  completed — and  the  spur 
will  remain  for  future  use.  This  saving  will  be  scored 
on  construction  work  alone.  It  amounts  to  far  more 
when  the  current  business  of  the  University  is  con- 
sidered. The  institution  gets  in  between  3,000  and 
4,000  tons  of  coal  a  year,  and  the  very  least  for  which 
it  could  be  hauled  from  Carrboro  to  the  bins  at 
the  power  house  is  $1  a  ton.  On  this  one  commodity, 
therefore,  there  is  a  saving  of  more  than  enough 
annually  to  pay  the  interest  on  the  cost  of  the  spur. 

Memorial  Hall  Made  Serviceable 

Among  the  undertakings  of  lesser  moment,  in  terms 
of  cost,  has  been  the  conversion  of  Memorial  Hall  into 
a  satisfactory  auditorium  at  a  cost  of  about  $15,000. 
A  felt  covering  applied  to  the  ceiling  has  given  the 
hall  good  acoustic  properties,  and  heating  and  light- 
ing systems  have  been  installed.  One  of  the  prime 
needs  of  the  University  for  several  years  has  been  a 
building  suitable  for  large  gatherings,  and  now  that 
need  is  met.  To  have  built  a  new  auditorium  would 
have  cost  from  $150,000  to  $200,000. 

The  University  has  put  up  14  dwelling  houses  with- 
in the  last  year,  eight  for  faculty  and  six  for  em- 
ployees. It  has  increased  its  fire  protection,  extended 
its  heating  system  and  its  water  and  sewer  lines,  and 
added  to  its  power  plant.  It  has  completed  a  new 
class  athletic  held  to  take  the  place  of  the  one  pre- 
empted for  the  new  dormitories.  All  these  lesser 
operations  are  included  in  the  big  general  improve- 
ment— what  is  known  as  the  six-year  program.  The 
funds  voted  thus  far  provide  for  two  years  of  build- 
ing. The  two  years  will  end  next  summer,  but  the 
construction  will  all  have  been  finished  before  then.

PROFESSIONALISM  IN  COLLEGIATE  ATHLETICS 

By  Fielding  H.  Yost 


(Reprinted  from  The  Michigan  Alumnus) 
Fielding  H.  Yost  is  one  of  the  most  celebrated  foot- 
ball coaches  in  the  country.  The  views  which  he  here 
sets  forth  are  the  fruit  of  an  experience  which,  for 
■variety  and.  length,  is  probably  not  excelled  by  the 
experience  of  any  member  of  his  profession. — Editors. 

Professionalism  in  collegiate  athletics  presents  a 
problem  which  has  occupied  the  attention  of  coaches 
and  athletic  directors  for  years.  Recently,  and  more 
especially  during  the  reorganization  of  athletics  after 
the  war,  the  problem  has  taken  on  greater  magnitude 
and  larger  significance  because  of  the  rapidly  increas- 
ing general  interest  in  athletics  and  because  of  the 
very  keen  competition  that  has  developed.  The  prob- 
lem has  grown  to  be  of  very  vital  importance  not  only 
to  athletics,  as  such,  but  to  the  entire  school  system. 
It  is  no  longer  a  matter  about  which  only  coaches 
and  athletic  directors  are  concerned.  University 
presidents,  university  faculties,  and  even  laymen  are 
very  actively  concerning  themselves  about  it.  The 
public  press  is  filled  with  arguments  for  and  against 
permitting  college  athletes  to  use  their  athletic  skill 
for  gain,  and  the  problem  is  often  the  topic  of  dis- 
cussion wherever  followers  of  athletics  come  together. 

A  Conference  on  Professionalism 

Agitation  came  to  a  head  in  Western  Conference 
circles  when  a  conference  of  the  presidents  of  the  sev- 
eral universities  was  called,  following  a  preliminary 
conference  of  the  athletic  directors  and  coaches.  It 
was  agreed  that  the  time  for  evading  the  issue  had 
passed.  The  purpose  of  the  meetings  was  to  face  the 
problem  squarely  and  to  solve  it  one  wajr  or  another. 
If  the  rules  were  right  they  should  be  rigorousry  en- 
forced.    If  they  were  wrong  they  should  be  changed. 

All  the  arguments  for  and  against  a  compromise 
with  professionalism  were  reviewed  and  discussed, 
with  the  result  that  presidents,  athletic  directors,  and 
coaches  agreed  that  such  a  compromise  would  be  dis- 
astrous to  the  continued  success  of  collegiate  athletics. 

It  was  resolved  by  the  presidents  of  the  Western 
Conference  universities  that  "The  Conference  main- 
tain the  amateur  rule  and  continue  its  efforts  with  re- 
newed vigor  to  reduce  and  eventually  eliminate  even 
a  suspicion  of  professionalism  from  college  and  uni- 
versity athletics." 

This  action  by  the  presidents  was  followed  by  the 
faculty  representatives  of  the  several  universities, 
who  amended  their  rules  of  eligibility  in  such  manner 
as  to  make  ineligible  for  Conference  competition  any 
student  who  engages  in  any  athletic  contest  as  a  rep- 
resentative of  an  athletic  organization  not  connected 
with  the  university.  The  only  exceptions  are  that 
"Occasional  games  during  vacation  on  teams  not  pro- 
fessional or  semi-professional  and  having  no  perma- 
nent organizations  are  not  prohibited,  provided  no  ad- 
mission is  charged,"  and  that  participation  in  regular 
A.  A.  U.  or  similar  track  meets  shall  not  be  consid- 
ered in  violation  of  the  rule  if  the  student  enters 
unattached. 

Athletic  Directors  Stand  Firmly 

The  action  did  not  stop  here.  The  athletic  direc- 
tors from  the  several   universities   were  of  the  firm 


conviction  that  athletics  could  not  long  continue  as 
the  vital  force  that  they  now  are  in  the  training  of 
college  men  if  professionalism  were  tolerated.  A  com- 
mittee was  appointed  to  work  out  the  most  effective 
means  of  enforcing  the  rules  of  eligibility  and  all 
agreed  to  cooperate  in  the  furtherance  of  the  prin- 
ciples of  strict  amateurism  in  all  collegiate  athletics. 

Furthermore,  the  National  Collegiate  Athletic  Asso- 
ciation, composed  of  150  of  the  more  prominent  col- 
leges and  universities  of  America  and  including  each 
of  the  Western  Conference  universities,  recently  legis- 
lated that  ' '  Each  institution  that  is  a  member  of  this 
association  agrees  to  enact  and  to  enforce  such  meas- 
ures as  may  be  necessary  to  prevent  violations  of  the 
principles  of  amateur  sport." 

It  is  apparent  that  the  officials  of  the  universities 
of  the  Western  Conference  are  in  earnest. 

On  its  face  such  drastic  action  as  was  taken  by  the 
Conference  officials  might  appear  to  be  a  bit  unrea- 
sonable. But  what  are  the  facts?  Nearly  all  those 
who  favor  a  compromise  with  professionalism  do  so 
on  the  grounds  that  a  student  should  not  be  denied 
the  right  to  play  baseball  during  the  summer  months 
for  money,  if  by  so  doing  he  might  be  enabled  to  con- 
tinue his  education.  The  argument  advanced  is  that 
most  of  those  who  do  this  are  amateurs  in  spirit  and 
are  only  temporarily  using  their  athletic  skill  for  gain. 
At  first,  this  seems  to  be  a  rather  reasonable  argu- 
ment, but  if  thought  through  the  question  is  not  so 
simple  as  it  appears. 

One  sport  cannot  for  long  be  differentiated  from 
the  others,  nor  can  one  season.  The  mere  fact  that 
the  immediate  problem  is  centered  around  baseball 
during  the  summer  does  not  mean  that  the  tendency 
would  stop  there.  Once  given  official  sanction,  and 
professionalism  would  spread  rapidly  to  all  branches 
of  sport  in  all  seasons.  It  would  be  no  more  than 
just  that  it  should.  If  the  baseball  man  is  permitted 
to  use  his  athletic  skill  for  gain,  certainly  the  same 
privilege  must  be  granted  to  the  student  whose  ath- 
letic ability  happens  to  be  in  football,  track,  basket- 
ball, wrestling,  boxing,  tennis,  golf,  or  anything  else. 

The  Real  Problem 

If  all  forms  of  athletics  are  to  be  considered  on  the 
same  basis,  as  they  must  if  we  are  fair  and  just,  then 
the  question  takes  on  greater  significance.  The  prob- 
lem is  not  merely  a  question  of  whether  or  not  college 
athletes  are  to  be  permitted  to  play  baseball  for  money 
during  the  summer.  Much  more  is  at  stake.  Fol- 
lowed to  its  logical  conclusion,  the  answer  to  this 
question  will  determine  the  whole  nature  of  collegiate 
athletics  in  the  future.  Answer  it  in  one  way,  and  it 
is  only  a  matter  of  time  before  our  college  teams 
would  be  composed  of  a  more  or  less  isolated  group 
of  professional  athletes.  Answer  the  question  in  the 
other  way,  and  we  will  continue  to  have  high  class 
amateur  athletics  which  will  be  an  important  part  of 
every  student's  life  and  an  activity  in  which  every 
student  will  have  an  equal  opportunity  with  each 
other  student  of  taking  part.  The  question  is, 
"Which  of  these  two  situations  do  we  want?" 

What  would  be  some  of  the  results  if  the  question 
were  answered  in  favor  of  permitting  college  athletes 
to  sell  their  skill? 


THE     ALUMNI     REVIEW

In  the  first  place,  the  college  team  would  be  com- 
posed almost  entirely  of  professionals.  The  ordinary 
student  could  not  hope  to  compete  against  the  pro- 
fessional with  his  great  advantage  in  practice  and 
training.  All  incentive  to  the  great  mass  of  students 
to  try  for  the  team  would  be  lost.  A  comparatively 
few  would  be  set  aside  by  themselves  as  "the  ath- 
letes." They  would  be  trained  and  developed  at  the 
expense  of  the  University  under  coaches  paid  by  the 
University,  to  be  turned  over  at  the  close  of  their 
college  career  to  the  managers  of  the  professional 
teams.  Athletic  contests  would  become  mere  spec- 
tacles. 

If  One  Sells  Athletic  Ability 

If  the  right  to  sell  one's  athletic  skill  for  gain 
were  legalized  it  would  become  the  duty  of  every 
coach  to  secure  for  each  of  his  players  a  good  position 
during  vacation  where  he  could  become  more  pro- 
ficient in  the  game  and  a  greater  asset  to  his  college 
team.  College  athletic  associations  would  become 
"feeders"  for  the  regular  professional  organizations 
and  athletic  directors  would  Serve  as  agents  for  the 
professional  managers. 

It  is  easily  possible  that  under  this  system  there 
might  be  a  more  perfect  technical  exhibition,  but. 
after  all,  is  it  the  end  of  athletics  to  afford  only  a 
technically  perfect  exhibition?  In  reality  athletics 
have  a  much  more  important  function  to  perform  in 
our  colleges.  If  we  are  to  measure  their  success  it 
must  be  measured  by  the  degree  to  which  they  per- 
form this  function.  Fundamentally,  the  underlying 
aims  of  college  athletics  are  these  three :  To  develop 
and  maintain  the  physical  health  of  all  the  students; 
to  promote  recreation  through  self-expression,  and  a 
wholesome  spirit  of  competition  and  rivalry;  to  form 
habits  and  inculcate  ideals  of  right  living. 

To  attain  these  ends  the  programmes  of  athletics  in 
our  colleges  should  be  such  as  to  make  participation 
as  nearly  universal  as  possible.  "Athletics  for  all" 
should  be  the  aim.  Each  student  should  have  an 
equal  right  and  opportunity  with  every  other  student 


to  participate.  It  lias  already  been  pointed  out  bow 
professionalism  in  college  athletics  would  work  against 
this  principle. 

Its  Relationship  to  Intramural  Sport 

To  be  sure,  only  a  comparatively  small  number 
actually  participate  in  intercollegiate  athletics  even 
under  strict  amateur  rules.  However,  the  possibility 
is  always  open  to  any  one  to  try  for  the  team  and 
the  probability  of  his  making  it  is  sufficiently  great 
to  make  the  effort  worth  while.  The  comparative  ease 
with  which  one  can  make  the  step  from  the  class,  and 
other  intramural  and  minor  teams,  to  the  varsity 
fosters,  to  a  considerable  extent  the  interest  and  en- 
thusiasm in  these  minor  games.  In  each  of  four  of 
the  Western  Conference  universities  there  were  over 
4000  men  students  who  engaged  in  some  form  of  in- 
tramural athletics  during  the  school  year  1920-21. 
To  some  extent,  at  least,  all  these  profited  by  the  re- 
creation and  physical  exercise  of  these  games,  together 
with  the  attendant  benefits  of  acquiring  habits  and 
ideals  of  right  living.  To  say  that  these  benefits 
would  have  been  as  great  or  would  have  accrued  to 
anywhere  near  as  many  had  there  not  been  the  in- 
centive and  support  of  amateur  intercollegiate  ath- 
letics would  be  to  deny  an  obvious  fact. 

Furthermore,  the  influence  of  athletic  profession- 
alism is,  in  itself,  detrimental  to  a  college  man.  It 
tends  to  make  him  dissatisfied  to  play  the  name  for 
its  own  sake  and  makes  of  his  athletic  powers  a  mark- 
etable commodity  rather  than  a  means  of  recreation 
and  self-expression.  The  game  is  robbed  of  the  ex- 
hilarating inspiration  of  achievement  merely  for 
achievement  s  sake,  and  many  of  the  very  important 
character-building  qualities  which  form  a  part  of 
collegiate  athletics  are  lost  the  moment  the  incentive 
of  personal  gain  is  introduced.  The  ideas  of  gen- 
erous service,  loyalty,  sacrifice,  and  whole-hearted 
devotion  to  a  cause  are  all  taken  away. 

The  Real  Point

college  man  to  make  it  possible  for  him  to  receive 
large  fees  and  salaries  for  short  terms  and  compara- 
tively easy  work?  Does  this  not  tend  to  minimize 
some  of  the  more  desirable  qualities  of  industry,  hard 
work,  and  continued  application  to  a  difficult  task? 
The  athlete  would  become  unwilling  to  put  in  the 
hard,  tedious  work  at  a  small  compensation  that  is 
usually  a  necessary  part  of  one's  preparation  for  the 
greater  successes  of  life.  The  comparative  ease  with 
which  an  athlete  could  get  money  would  foster  habits 
of  idleness  and  the  desire  to  "get  something  for 
nothing,"  which  would  make  it  difficult  for  him  to 
undergo  the  discipline  and  hard  work  of  ordinary 
business  when  he  had  finished  his  athletic  career. 

Colleges  exist  for  the  purpose  of  preparing  our 
youth  for  life.  Most  educators  agree  that  this  should 
include  not  only  intellectual  preparation  but  physical 
and  moral  as  well.  The  university  should  be,  and  is, 
as  much  concerned  with  the  cultivation  of  high  de- 
sires as  with  the  training  of  high  intelligence.  In 
this  field,  as  well  as  in  the  purely  physical,  athletics 
play  an  important  part  in  the  work  of  the  college.  In 
addition  to  securing  harmonious  bodily  development, 
a  well-planned  and  well-organized  system  of  athletics 
teaches  better  and  more  effectively  than  any  other 
part  of  the  university's  programme  many  of  the  very 
important  social  and  moral  qualities  without  which 
much  of  the  intellectual  development  would  be  in 
vain. 

The  sacrifice  of  self  to  a  group  or  institution  for 
the  attainment  of  a  common  goal  is  the  first  lesson 
taught  by  athletics.  This  means  cooperation,  team 
play,  loyalty  and  service.  The  qualities  of  determi- 
nation, will  power,  persistence,  and  courage,  both 
physical  and  moral,  can  nowhere  be  better  learned 
than  on  the  athletic  field.  Self-confidence,  reliability, 
friendliness,  leadership,  mental  and  moral  poise,  re- 
sourcefulness, decision, — these  qualities  and  mauy 
more  are  brought  out  in  marked  degree  by  athletics. 
Furthermore,  the  ability  to  summon  all  of  one 's  forces, 
physical,  mental,  and  moral,  to  work  together  in 
smooth  coordination  for  the  accomplishment  of  a 
given  task,  and  the  initiative  necessary  to  direct  these 
forces,  are  attributes  very  strikingly  developed  by 
athletics.  In  reality,  the  athletic  field  proves  the  final 
analysis  of  character  where  a  boy  succeeds  or  fails 
because  of  what  he  really  is. 

Realization  of  these  truths  and  of  the  detrimental 
influences  that  would  come  in  and  detract  from  their 
usefulness  if  professionalism  were  sanctioned  caused 
the  officials  of  the  Western  Conference  universities  to 
answer  the  question  of  summer  baseball  in  favor  of 
strict  rules  of  eligibility  and  a  programme  of  rigorous 
enforcement. 

Rules  for  the  Many,  Not  the  Few 

It  is  readily  granted  that  some  very  worthy  and 
needy  men  may  be  compelled  by  these  rules  to  give 
up  their  eligibility  and  take  money  instead  of  col- 
lege glory.  This  is  regrettable,  but  unavoidable.  The 
rules  must  be  made  for  the  many  and  not  for  the 
few.  It  must  be  remembered  that  participation  on 
college  teams  is  a  privilege  rather  than  a  right.  Ex- 
cellent facilities,  high-class  coaching  and  all  the  at- 
mosphere of  the  big  university  games  are  provided 
for  the  college  athlete  freely  and  gladly  by  the  school. 
The  student  must  choose  between  these  advantages  and 
the  financial  gain  of  playing  outside.  It  is  merely  a 
question    of    which    the   student   most   desires — those 


things  which  go  with  college  and  amateur  athletics  or 
those  things  which  go  with  outside  and  professional 
athletics.  He  may  choose  either,  but  not  both.  They 
do  not  mix. 

The  eligibility  rules  as  they  now  stand  are  enforce- 
able and  every  athletic  director  in  the  Western  Con- 
ference has  pledged  himself  to  do  his  utmost  to  en- 
force them.  This  will  not,  however,  be  an  easy  task. 
The  students  and  alumni  of  the  various  universities 
must  cooperate.  They  must  unite  in  support  of  the 
rules.  There  must  be  more  positive,  aggressive,  and 
enthusiastic  teaching  of  the  ideals  of  sportsmanship 
to  convince  everyone  that  true  amateurism  is  worth 
while. 


FOOTBALL  PROSPECTS 

Prophecies  as  to  football  are  as  dangerous  as  other 
sorts  of  prophecy,  and  The  Review  dislikes  to  arouse 
hopes  that  may  be  dashed.  Yet  it  is  the  simple  truth 
to  say  that  the  prospects  for  a  successful  team  this 
year  are  unusually  good. 

Coach  Fetzer  has  eleven  "letter  men"  of  1921  back : 
Pritchard  (captain),  Blount,  Poindexter,  Cochran, 
Roy  Morris,  Shepard,  Fred  Morris,  Johnston,  Mc- 
Donald, Tenney,  McGee.  Abernethy  was  not  a  letter 
man  in  1921  but  was  on  the  varsity  before  that. 

There  are  a  number  of  promising  candidates  from 
last  year's  freshman  team.  Among  these  are  George 
Sparrow,  who  was  captain  of  the  freshmen ;  Blanton, 
Thomas,  George,  and  Hawfield. 

Jack  Merritt,  who  was  on  the  Chapel  Hill  school 
team  in  1920,  is  out  for  a  place.  Another  newcomer 
is  Randolph,  who  played  at  Asheville  and  in  the 
army.  Bonner,  the  outfielder  of  last  spring,  is  mak- 
ing a  try  at  football. 

From  last  year's  squad  there  are  Matthews,  Ed- 
wards, Farrell,  Sykes,  Miller,  Whedbee,  Giersch,  and 
Lineberger. 

The  opening  game  of  the  season  with  Wake  Forest 
in  Goldsboro  on  September  30  resulted  in  a  victory 
for  Carolina  by  the  score  of  62  to  3.  The  game  with 
Yale  at  New  Haven  on  October  6  will  have  been 
played  before  this  issue  of  The  Review  reaches  its 
subscribers. 

Trinity  will  be  met  at  Chapel  Hill  University  Day. 
October  12.  Then  follow  South  Carolina  at  Chapel 
Hill  October  14,  N.  C.  State  at  Raleigh  October  19. 
Maryland  at  Chapel  Hill  October  28,  Tulane  at  New 
Orleans  November  4,  V.  M.  I.  at  Richmond  November 
1],  Davidson  at  Charlotte  November  18,  and  Virginia 
at    Charlottesville   Thanksgiving  Day,   November  30. 

This  will  be  Carolina's  first  football  match  with 
Trinity  since  about  thirty  years  ago,  when  the  old 
"flying  wedge"  was  in  vogue.  Those  were  the  days 
of  "Pete"  Murphy,  "Mike"  Hoke,  "Judge"  Little, 
Baskerville,  Barnard,  Pugh,  Biggs  and  others  whose 
names  have  become  famous  in  Carolina  athletic 
annals. 

The  game  in  Goldsboro  was  a  departure.  The  Uni- 
versity had  not  played  in  the  eastern  part  of  thr 
State  before,  and  the  alumni  there  made  an  urgenl 
demand  that  their  section  be  neglected  no  longer.

JUDGE  CONNOR  TO  JOIN  LAW  FACULTY 

Judge  Henry  Groves  Connor,  of  the  eastern  district 
of  North  Carolina,  will,  according  to  announcement 
made  following  the  meeting  of  the  Executive  Com- 


Judge  Henry  Groves  Connor 

mittee  of  the  Trustees  on  August  29th,  become  a  lec- 
turer in  the  Law  School  of  the  University  at  some 
date  during  the  fall  term.  Although  formal  an- 
nouncement of  Judge  Connor's  acceptance  has  not 
been  made,  it  is  understood  that  he  will  accept  and 
assume  his  new  duties  at  an  early  date,  either  retiring 
from  the  Federal  bench  under  the  judges'  retirement 
act,  which  is  his  privilege,  or  calling  for  the  appoint- 
ment of  an  associate. 

Judge  Connor  will  fill  the  newly  created  Ruffin 
lectureship,  devoting  his  time  not  to  the  mere  prepa- 
ration of  law  students  for  the  Supreme  Court  exami- 
nation but  to  a  consideration  of  law  as  a  force  in 
human  progress.  Judge  Connor  is  expected  to  bring 
to  the  students  of  the  University  the  advantage  of  a 
ripe  intellect,  and  an  interpretation  of  law  by  one  of 
seasoned  experience,  ready  sympathy  and  a  concep- 
tion of  law  as  something  more  than  a  codification  of 
statutes  to  curb  human  wrong-doing. 

Judge  Connor,  who  was  reared  and  educated  at 
Wilson,  was  in  active  practice  of  law  from  187:!  to 
1885,  and  from  1893  to  1903.  More  than  half  of  his 
professional  career  has  been  spent  on  the  bench.  In 
1885  he  represented  his  district  in  the  State  Senate 
and  in  1899  and  1901  he  served  his  county  in  the 
House  of  Representatives,  having  been  Speaker  of  the 
House  in  his  first  term. 

He  received  his  first  appointment  to  the  Superior 
Court  bench  of  the  State  in  1885  and  served  until 
1893,  when  he  resigned  to  return  to  private  practice. 
In  1902  he  was  elected  Associate  Justice  of  the  North 
Carolina  Supreme  Court.  From  this  office,  although 
a  Democrat,  he  was  appointed  to  the  Federal  judge 
ship  for  the  district  of  eastern  North  Carolina  by 
President  William  Howard  Taft,  on  June  1,  1909. 
In  July,  1922  he  reached  the  age  of  voluntary  retire- 
ment entitling  him  to  full  pay. 

Judge  Connor  holds  the  degree  of  LL.D.  conferred 
on  him  by  the  University  of  North  Carolina  in  1908. 


THE  MEDICAL  SCHOOL 

The  Board  of  Trustees  at  Commencement  voted  to 
expand  the  present  two-year  Medical  School  of  the 
University  to  a  full  four-year  school,  so  soon  as  funds 
became  available ;  and  expressed  itself  in  favor  of 
loeating  at  Chapel  Hill  the  teaching  hospital  which 
will  be  the  center  of  the  work  of  the  school.  At  the 
same  time  it  was  voted  to  ask  a  committee  of  seven, 
consisting  of  four  trustees,  the  president  of  the  Uni- 
versity, the  dean  of  the  Medical  School,  and  one  mem- 
ber of  the  Medical  School  faculty  to  make  a  thorough 
study  of  the  matter  and  report  back  to  the  Board  in 
the  fall.  The  committee  consists  of  Trustees  De- 
Laney,  Everett,  Grier,  and  Pharr ;  President  Chase, 
Dean  Manning  and  Dr.  MacNider.  It  has  already 
held  two  meetings,  has  assembled  much  information 
from  other  institutions,  is  arranging  conferences  with 
experts  in  the  field  of  medical  education,  has  asked 
the  president  of  the  North  Carolina  Medical  Society. 
Dr.  Long,  of  Greensboro,  to  appoint  a  committee  "I 
physicians  to  advise  with  it,  a  request  which  has  led 
to  the  appointment  of  thirty  representative  physicians, 
headed  by  Dii  I.  W.  Faison,  of  Charlotte,  as  chair 
man.  The  committee  plans  to  visit  soon  a  number 
of  institutions  which  maintain  modern  medical 
sehools. 

The  committee  is  assembling  a  full  array  of  facts 
bearing  on  the  question  of  location,  inasmuch  as  it 
must  either  be  in  a  position  to  support  intelligently 
before  the  State,  the  Legislature,  and  the  medical  pro- 
fession the  trustees'  resolution  in  the  matter,  or  1" 
ask  the  trustees  for  reconsideration  in  case  it  is  con- 
vinced that  Chapel  Hill  is  not  a  proper  site. 

The  committee  representing  the  North  Carolina 
Medical  Society  is  as  follows:  Drs.  I.  W.  Faison. 
Charlotte,  chairman;  J.  T.  J.  Battle,  Greensboro;  J. 
H.  Shuford,  Hickory;  C.  M.  Van  Poole,  Salisbury; 
E.  J.  Dickinson,  Wilson;  L.  B.  McBrayer,  Sani- 
torium;  W.  L.  Dunn,  Aheville ;  H.  H.  Briggs,  Ashe- 
ville;  David  T.  Taylor,  Washington;  J.  F.  Highsmith, 
Fayetteville ;  J.  V.  McGougan,  Fayetteville ;  Foy  Rob-

Many  North  Carolinians  familiar  with  the  early 
history  of  the  State  College  for  Women  remember  T. 
Gilbert  Pearson  ( '99)  as  a  member  of  the  first  faculty 
of  the  institution.  They  also  remember  his  great  in- 
terest in  bird  life  and  his  activity  in  the  formation 
of  the  North  Carolina  Audubon  Society.  He  went  to 
New  York  to  accept  a  position  with  the  National  Au- 
dubon Society  and  he  has  been  the  force  behind  that 
organization  for  years.  He  has  just  been  made  chair- 
man of  an  international  committee  to  protect  bird 
life.  He  loves  his  work  and  has  gone  to  the  top  in  it.

ery,  principally  because  of  their  inexperience  in  writ- 
ing and  their  inability  to  speak  correctly  and  fluently. 
After  struggling  unsuccessfully  for  three  or  four 
months  in  the  effort  to  improve  their  English,  he  hit 
upon  the  idea  of  having  the  students  approach  the 
subject  through  the  more  common,  practical  means  of 
expression — just  plain  connected,  informal  talk.  They 
were  asked  to  tell  the  plots  of  stories,  novels,  moving 
pictures ;  to  give  the  substance  of  magazine  articles 
dealing  with  subjects  they  were  interested  in;  to  ex- 
plain how  to  select  seed  corn,  how  to  dip  cattle,  how 
to  weld  iron,  and  so  on.  All  the  while  there  was  an 
attempt  to  interrelate  and  interwork  oral  and  written 
speech.  The  students  soon  discovered  their  rapid 
improvement  in  oral  expression ;  they  took  an  interest 
in  their  written  work.  Such  was  the  beginning  of  the 
informal  oral  composition  discussed  in  this  text." 

Seemingly,  the  text  is  admirably  planned,  and 
should  prove  of  distinct  value  in  the  teaching  of 
correct  English. 


Dr.  Edwin  Greenlaw,  Kenan  Professor  of  English 
and  Dean  of  the  Graduate  School,  is  the  editor  of 
Literature  and  Life,  book  one,  published  during  the 
summer  by  Scott,  Poresman  and  Co.,  of  Chicago. 
This  volume,  issued  in  an  edition  of  25,000  copies,  is, 
to  quote  from  the  preface,  "the  first  in  a  series  of 
four  books  that  provide  material  for  an  organized 
course  in  literature  for  secondary  schools.  In  this 
series  literature  is  regarded  not  as  an  end  in  itself,  a 
subject  in  which  facts  are  to  be  collected  and  memo- 
rized, but  as  an  instrument  through  which  the  pupil 
may  be  initiated  into  the  spiritual  heritage  stored  up 
for  him  in  books. 

"The  first  requirement  to  such  an  initiation  is  an 
abundant  supply  of  carefully  chosen  selections  from 
the  best  writers  of  all  time.  In  the  present  volume, 
for  example,  the  range  in  time  is  from  Homer  to  the 
present.  Of  the  fifty  or  more  authors  represented, 
one  half  are  masters  of  former  times  whose  works 
have  become  classics;  the  other  half  are  recent  or 
contemporary  writers  who  are  recognized  interpreters 
of  our  own  time. 

"A  glance  at  the  Table  of  Contents,  however,  will 
show  that  the  editors  have  not  regarded  it  as  their 
task  merely  to  supply  a  large  amount  of  carefully 
chosen  and  graded  material  in  rich  variety  and  of 
recognized  excellence.  They  have  kept  in  mind  the 
purpose  set  down  in  the  opening  paragraph  of  this 
Preface:  the  initiation  of  the  child  into  the  spiritual 
heritage  stored  up  for  him  in  books." 

The  volume  is  of  large  octavo  size,  is  splendidly 
printed  and  illustrated,  and  is  sold  for  $1.80.  Dr. 
Greenlaw  is  now  at  work  on  the  remaining  volumes. 


G.  P.  Wilson,  '13,  instructor  in  English  in  the  Uni- 
versity of  Wisconsin,  is  the  author  of  a  book  just  is- 
sued by  the  Palmer  Company  of  Boston,  entitled 
Informal  <  )ral  Composition.  Mr.  Wilson  accounts  for 
the  presence  of  the  book  as  follows : 

"During  the  year  1913-14  the  writer  had  the  diffi- 
cult task  of  attempting  to  instruct  freshmen  of  a 
technical  college  in  the  theory  and  practice  of  written 
composition.  They  disliked  the  theoretical  side  (if 
the  subject  and  looked  upon  written  work  as  a  drudg- 


Public  Education  in  the  South,  dedicated  ' '  To  the 
memory  of  Edward  Kidder  Graham,  gentleman, 
scholar,  friend,  inspiring  teacher  of  youth,  brilliant 
leader  of  men,  exponent  and  interpreter  of  the 
South 's  best  tradition, ' '  is  the  title  of  a  482-page  book 
by  Dr.  Edgar  W.  Knight,  professor  of  Education  in 
the  School  of  Education.  The  volume,  published  by 
Ginn  and  Company,  of  Boston  and  New  York,  is  the 
outgrowth  of  Dr.  Knight 's  study  of  educational  prob- 
lems, particularly  those  ol  the  South,  in  his  courses 
here  and  at  Trinity  College,  and  attempts  to  give  the 
first  general  survey  of  the  growth  of  public  educa- 
tional organization  and  practices  in  the  eleven  states 
which  formed  the  Confederacy.  Another  purpose 
which  Dr.  Knight  has  had  in  mind  in  the  preparation 
of  the  book  has  been  to  make  accessible  to  the  student 
and  the  teacher  certain  valuable  but  scattered  and 
more  or  less  inaccessible  materials  on  the  educational 
history  of  the  Southern  States. 


The  University  of  North  Carolina  is — save  the 
mark ! — an  octopus.  There  is  no  better  definition 
which  will  suggest  the  completeness  with  which  this 
institution  is  assuming  charge  of  the  intellectual 
thought  and  purpose  of  this  State. 

For  its  tentacles  are  stretched  out  over  North  Caro- 
lina, touching  the  life  in  every  hamlet,  village  and 
city.  It  is  drawing  to  itself  the  best  that  this  State 
has  to  offer  in  the  way  of  scholarly  ambitions  of  its 
aspiring  youth. 

But  it  is  a  benevolent  octopus.  What  it  takes,  it 
returns  manyfold.  It  touches  communities  not  to 
blight  but  to  bless,  its  ambition  is  to  liberate  rather 
than  enslave  the  minds  of  men.  The  power  which  it 
seeks  is  the  power  to  serve  the  State. 

No  institution  in  North  Carolina  deserves  so  well 
of  the  people.  No  institution  possesses  such  infinite 
possibilities  for  enriching  the  life  of  the  State  and 
for  keeping  the  feet  of  our  citizens  forever  planted 
in  the  paths  of  progress. — Asheville  Times. 


Edwin  Bjorkman's  latest  book,  The  Soul  of  a  Child.

Padyen  was  at  work  in  New  York,  met  Edwin  Bjork- 
man,  and  married  him.

— ' '  It  was  worth  coming  to  Williamston 
to  see  my  old  teacher,  Elder  Sylvester 
Hassell,  now  eighty  years  old,  as  straight 
as  when  he  was  forty,  with  eye  not  dim- 
med and  strength  unabated.  Though  now 
eighty  years  of  age,  Mr.  Hassell  reads 
fine  print  without  glasses  as  readily  as 
when  he  was  a  student  at  the  University 
of  North  Carolina  about  the  time  of  the 
beginning  of  the  War  Between  the  States. 
Indeed,  he  can  probably  read  better. 
Upon  graduation  he  volunteered  in  the 
Confederate  Army  and  was  rejected  on 
physical  grounds.  So  anxious  was  he  to 
serve  that  he  was  examined  by  five 
physicians,  none  of  whom  would  certify 
him  as  physically  fit.  And  yet  now  at 
the  age  of  eighty,  Mr.  Hassell  lias  con- 
founded all  the  doctors  and  has  lived  to 
see  them  all  pass  away. ' ' — Josephus 
Daniels,  in  the  Raleigh  News  and  Ob- 
server, September  10.

— "There  was  one  disappointment  at  the 
Williamston  celebration.  It  had  been 
given  out  that  Col.  Harry  Stubbs  was  to 
deliver  an  address  of  welcome  and  the 
response  was  to  be  made  by  Judge 
Francis  1).  Winston.  That  bill  of  fare 
attracted  many,  for  as  different  as  any 
two  men  can  be,  the  opportunity  to  hear 
both  was  embraced.  The  people  did  hear 
Judge  Winston,  the  inimitable,  who  was 
at  his  best,  but  Col.  Stubbs  did  not  de- 
liver the  address  of  welcome.  Perhaps 
he  thought  the  personal  word  of  wel- 
iiiiiio  to  friends  and  the  spirit  of  hos- 
pitality by  the  whole  people  was  better 
than  any  set  address.  Ever  since  I  was 
a  boy  in  school  with  him  I  wondered  at

crowd  disappointment.  We  had  also  ex- 
pected to  hear  from  Clayton  Moore,

Both  these  local  orators  gave  way  to  the

What  college  failed  to  give  him 

An  unusual  letter  from  a  successful  man  to  a  younger  man 


A  hundred  men  graduate  from  college  in  the  same  class  with  identi- 
cally the  same  training.  At  the  end  of  ten  or  fifteen  years,  a  few 
of  the  hundred  have  forged  far  ahead.  They  have  "made  a  place 
for  themselves"  while  the  great  majority  are  still  held — many 
of  them  permanently  held — in  the  routine  places  of  business.

Where  Go  To  College? 


There  are  three  major  considerations  that 
determine  the  greatness,  or  the  potential 
greatness  of  an  educational  institution. 
These  are : 

1.  The  plant,  including  grounds,  library, 
classrooms,  laboratories,  and  apparatus; 
2.  The  faculty ;  3.  The  student  body  and 
its  democratic  standards. 

In  addition  to  the  twenty-seven  build- 
ings already  on  the  campus  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  North  Carolina,  the  State  of  North 
Carolina  is  this  year  putting  $1,490,000 
into  new  buildings  and  equipment.  The 
library    of     108,000    volumes    is    spending 


$24,000  annually  for  books  and  periodicals. 
Eight  thousand  volumes  were  received  in 
1921,  and  1,005  magazines  and  learned 
journals  were  received  on  subscription. 

The  faculty  numbers  115  of  the  country's 
best  scholars. 

Speaking  of  the  student  body  of  the 
University,  Mr.  Sherwood  Eddy,  of  Yale 
University,  who  has  spent  the  major  por- 
tion (it  his  life  studying  in  four  continents, 
said  that,  with  line  exception,  it  was  the 
most  seriously  thoughtful  and  democratic 
group  of  students  he  had  ever  known.
