We invite school officers and teachers to visit our exhibit rooms where they
will see many new things — some great improvements over the old lines of equip-
ment.
The greatest progress in school furnishing development during the past
twenty years has been made during the past two years and we invite the critical
inspection of competent school officials.
Our business extended into twelve states during the past year and we feel
that we are in position to meet the requirements of the school trade whatever they

OPINION AND COMMENT
The 128th Commencement
The 128th Commencement, begun by the masterful
appeal of Dr. Plato Durham to the graduating class to
help break down the limitations of men. ended at noon
on June 13, being a ceremonial distinguished in the
following particulars:
1. The baccalaureate speakers sounded a note of
idealism worthy of full acceptance by the graduating
elass; (2) The alumni officers cast aside any illusions
they may have had as to the nature of their task in
the building of the Greater University and called
upon the alumni as a group to rally to the cause; and
(3) The University itself, by sending into the life of
the State 228 trained sons and daughters, forty-two of
whom received its highest degrees, proved anew that
it was devoting itself fully to the high mission of
training men for useful service.

Alumni Day
Except for the members of the graduating class.
Alumni Day has. in recent years, come to he the out-
standing day of Commencement week — a fact which
was certainly true of Alumni Day this year despite
the steady downpour of rain, and the victory by Vir-
ginia on Emerson field. President Chase's summary
of the year's activities, the reports of the General
Secretary and committees on various alumni activities,
the speech-making by returning alumni, the luncheon.
the game, the class reunion dinners and the perform-
ance of the Playmakers made up a day colorful and
pleasing in every way. From start to finish it was
full of interest, and was the sort that warmed the
hearts of all who made the happy pilgrimage to the
Hill.
□ n □
The Innovation
The innovation of the Alumni Day baseball game in
a half dozen Southern college commencements was,
with one exception, a wonderful success, the exception
being that in every instance the visiting team, instead
of being defeated, won the victory, and, accordingly,
spilled the ice water on the home-coming old grad.
Speaking for Carolina, however, the innovation, in
spite of the Hood of rain in the morning and the de-
feat at the hands of Virginia, added tremendously to
the gayety of Alumni Day. More alumni were on the
Hill than ever came back For an Alumni Day per-
formance before. And the game was ;i thriller, end-
ing with a double play that on account of its "classi-
ness" delighted the heart at the same time it spelled
defeat. Moth teams put up gilt-edged ball, the finest
spirit of sportmanship prevailed, and the old grad,
led by "Ratty" Ranson and "Scrubby" Rives, put
up "the old fight." It was a great performance and
must become a permanent institution.
Two Observations
The Review takes this occasion to put its finger on
two facts which may otherwise escape the attention of
alumni as they read the story of this commencement
issue, namely, that the School of Commerce, with an
enrollment of 400, has been admitted into the Ameri-
can Association of Collegiate Business Schools, and
that forty-two members of the Graduate School re-
ceived advanced degrees — four of them being the
Ph.D.
These two facts are highly significant. In four
years, the School of Commerce has perfected its or-
ganization, set up its standards, and demonstrated its
effectiveness so clearly that it receives this high recog-
nition. And. without much ado, the Graduate School
has become the leading graduate school of the South.
Now that the University has extended the Summer
School to twelve weeks and is rapidly increasing the
number of courses open to graduate students and the
Library is spending more money for books and peri-
odicals yearly than Johns Hopkins, there is no reason
why the University, through the summer term, should
not become in the fullest sense, the graduate center
between Baltimore and Texas. The opportunity to
do, in the summer, what Chicago has long done by
means of its fourth (Summer) term, is now ours, and
there is every reason to believe that the University
will utilize it to the full.
□ □ □
The Class of 1913
Running true to form the Class of 1913 came back
for its 10th anniversary, thirty-five strong, and
turned in a report that won the highest sort of ap-
proval in two particulars. It placed in the hands of
its members a class book containing up-to-date infor-
mation about itself, and through its officers banded to
the President of the University as its contribution to
the Alumni Loyalty Fund a check for +1500.
Nicholas Murray Butler said several years ago thai
the first i\\ity of an alumnus was to keep himself in-
formed about the work and purposes of his Alma
Mater. This 1913 has done. Furthermore, il has kept
the bond between its members closely tied, and in ad-
dition has eome back bearing gifts to strengthen Alma
Mater's hands.

The Seely Piano
One of The Review's dreams came true at Com-
mencement. On Sunday morning, when the pianist
for the baccalaureate sermon struck the first note of
the opening hymn, the audience realized that at last
the long-wished for grand piano was at hand.
The gift, which comes from Mr. Fred L. Seely, of
Asbeville. is a Hardman concert grand and meets
a want which has too long been unfilled.
23S
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
Now that, the Seeley Piano is a reality we pause to
catch the name of the donor of the pipe organ-to-be
which should be installed in Memorial Hall before the
next University ceremonial — October 12th. Who'll
till in the name? "We wait to see!

The Graham Memorial Building
The hour for building the Graham Memorial, a per-
spective and a description of which are to be found in
this issue, has struck. Within the next ninety days
total subscriptions of $400,000 are wanted to insure
the erection of a building that will match the present
building plan of the University, that will take ade-
quate care of student needs, that will evidence the ap-
preciation of the alumni of the State's generosity to
the University, and will serve as a fitting memorial
to the man in whose honor it is planned.
Here is an undertaking that has already been too
long uncompleted, which will meet an imperative
need, and will afford alumni an opportunity of
rendering a lasting service to the youth of North
Carolina.
□ □ □
A. T. Allen Succeeds E. C. Brooks
In the elevation of A. T. Allen, '97, to the headship
of the public schools of the State as successor of Dr.
E. C. Brooks, The Review finds much pleasure and
the assurance that the splendid work in the public
school system will be carried to higher levels. Since
his graduation in 1897, Mr. Allen has been a constant
student of North Carolina's educational problems as
well as an effective teacher and executive, and he
brings to his high office an equipment and ability
which insure the State of a wise administration of its
most important single undertaking— the development
of its public schools.
□ □ □
Recording North Carolina
The Review calls the attention of the alumni to the
issue of The News Letter for June 27 entitled Record-
ing North Carolina. The issue is devoted to a de-
scription of the North Carolina material in the gen-
eral library of the University and the departmental
library of Rural Social Science and contains an ap-
peal to the citizens of the State to assist in saving for
North Carolina all books, pamphlets, newspapers,
maps, etc., which treat of any phase of North Carolina
life.
Copies are being mailed to the alumni in the hope
that they will assist in this highly important under-
taking of making the record of North Carolina, so far
as it is available in print and manuscript, complete
and permanent. Communications i erning such
material should be addressed to the library of the
University.
□ □ □
Twenty Years of the Golden Fleece
One item of Commencement news calls our atten-
tion to the fact that twenty years have carried in
their train five college generations since the Senior
Order of Golden Fleece was established on the Uni-
versity campus. To emphasize outstanding achieve-
ment in the major lines of student life by bestowing
public recognition and to unify student-life through
the stressing of the primacy of the University over
any of its parts and through the fellowship of lead-
ers; this was the ambitious purpose conceived in 190:!.
We know that these things have in large measure
been done and we feel that the Golden Fleece has had
great part in the accomplishment. With remarkable
unanimity the campus has sustained the choices made
each spring and the Fleece tap-day, with such out-
standing speakers as governors and gubernatorial can-
didates and with an audience that packs Memorial
Hall to see and applaud the tappings, has become a
genuine University occasion. It is too early yet to see
what part the Argonauts of Carolina will play in the
life of the State. However, if they catch the real
spirit of the tradition they inherit from the splendid
youth of Greece, they will have the finest training for
lifelong leadership. The University alumni salute
you on this birth-day and bid you carry on !
□ □ □
The Alumni Review
With this issue The Review completes its eleventh
year.
In view of the fact that at the meeting of the Gen-
eral Alumni Association a resolution was passed look-
ing to a closer union between The Review and the
Association in order that the interests of both might
be the better promoted, the Editor takes this occasion
to summarize the activities of the publication to date.
The Review began publication in the fall of 1912
as the official organ of the Association. It was estab-
lished by the Alumni Council, who named the then
Secretary of the Association managing editor, ap-
pointed an editorial board, borrowed $1000 to begin
work with, collected something over 300 five-year and
125 one-year paid-in-advance subscriptions, and
started the publication on its way.
When the June issue, the sixth and final for the
year, came from the press, all of the money had been
spent, bills amounting to approximately $200 re
mained unpaid, and the Association, unable to carry
on the undertaking, turned it over to the board of
editors to be continued if means could be devised to
that end.
That was in June, 1913. Three members of the
board of editors went to the bank and borrowed
money to meet the unpaid bills; the present managing
editor, just graduating with the Class of 1913, was
pressed into service, and. for the ten years interven-
ing, The Review has been operated by the board in
the interest of the Association, but independent of it,
the managing editor assuming all financial responsi-
bility for it.
In looking back over the years, in spite of the many
faults which the board is conscious have marred The
Review's effectiveness, there is much in which the
board finds pride.
First of all, it knows that, through the generous
support of the alumni, it saved the publication to the
University. Furthermore, it assumed the indebted-
ness to the 300 odd subscribers who had paid for five
years in advance and saw that they lost no money — a
total of some $1200 to $1400— that' they had advanced
in this alumni undertaking.
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
239
In the second place, the board has been able to take
an active subscription list of not more than 500 and
lias gradually built it up to the point that 3500 alumni
have regularly been informed concerning what the
University is doing, what its needs arc. and what it
hopes to do. In this way. it lias been the medium
through which a body of information lias been pre-
sented to alumni which was absolutely essential to any
concerted, intelligent cooperation on their part in
promoting the larger welfare of the University.
In the third place, by reason of the fact that it was
in touch with the alumni, and realized how little
knowledge North Carolinians had of the University,
it presented in its editorial columns the necessity of
the establishment of a popular paper through which
information concerning the serious interest of the
University in the State could lie broadcasted, and as
early as 1913 proposed to the Visiting Committee of
the Trustees the establishment of a publication which
in 11)14 after the coming of Professor Branson took
the concrete form of The News Letter.
And, finally, it has taken its full part in the total
job on which the alumni have worked. With the Class
of 1905 it advocated the establishment of the Alumni
Loyalty Fund. It has constantly secured informa-
tion concerning alumni which is of value in the publi-
cation of the proposed alumni catalog. It, has con-
stantly suggested ways in which individual alumni
and local associations could enrich the life of the Uni-
versity. It submitted in writing to the Board of Trus-
tees the proposal concerning the publication of the
volume of addresses by President Graham and the
erection of the Graham Memorial building. It wrote.
on September 27, 1920, the memorandum which
started what later became the $20,000,000 program,
and its members, five on the central committee here,
and one in the House of Representatives, joined with
thousands of forward-looking alumni and citizens at
large in fighting through to a successful beginning,
this great undertaking.
One word more. The Review began publication in
October, 1912. In November the Alumni Neivs ap-
peared at Virginia; a little later, the Alcalde, at the
University of Texas; some two or three years later,
the Alumnus, at Vanderbilt: and later still the alumni
publications of the Universities of Tennessee, South
Carolina, and Georgia. Two of the publications con-
sciously adopted the form and departments of The
Review ami members of the various editorial boards
have Frequently sought suggestions from it. At three
of the annual meetings of the Association of Alumni
Secretaries it has contributed papers on alumni pub-
lication subjects, and it has had its regular place on
the exchange tahle of the leading alumni publications
of the nation.
Altogether there has been lots of hard, inspiring
work, tin- finest sort of cooperation, and the satisfac-
tion that will ever abide of having been permitted to
serve Alma Mater and t he State.
At present, the program for 1923-24 is not deter
mined. lint whatever ii may he. The Review, fellovi
alumni, through your increased support, must press
on to ever increasing usefulness. — L. R. W.
BUILDING OPERATIONS ON THE CAMPUS
The first building operation on the campus this
summer is to be the reconstruction of the interiors of
the Old East and Old West buildings. These two
structures have remained practically as they were
when they were built more than a century ago, and
the object now is to change them from antiquated and
unsanitary into decent modern dormitories. At one
time it was proposed that they he changed into class-
room buildings, because of their central position on
the campus, but considerations of sentiment, as well
as their physical conformation, moved the trustees to
abandon this idea.
They are the only two dormitories that will not be
occupied by students in the Summer School. The ex-
pectation is that the work of reconstruction will be
completed in time for their use again at the beginning
of the fall term.
Another immediate undertaking is the erection of
the physical training building down in the woods back
of Emerson Field. This is to have walls made of
galvanized steel plates. They are made to fit together,
much in the manner of the block houses that children
use as toys, and the job can be done with great speed.
The cost, excluding the floor, will be about $33,000.
Six basketball courts can be laid out in the enclosed
space, besides an eighth-of-a-mile running track.
There will be ample space for haseball pitchers to
warm up in cold weather. Four thousand people will
be accommodated on bleachers that can he put up and
taken down in a few hours.
The installation of a new water supply system is
one of the enterprises upon which a start is to be made
within the next few weeks. The preliminary investi-
gations and calculations have already been made. A
dam is to be built on Morgan's creek, half a mile above
the present emergency intake and about a mile beyond
Carrboro. When the installation is completed, the
available supply will be 500.000 gallons a day.
Other immediate undertakings are the addition of a
new wing to the infirmary ; repairs to the gymnasium ;
the fireproofing of the roof over the stacks in the li-
brary ; the finishing of the basement of the biology
building; and the laying out of between thirty and
forty tennis courts where the woods now are, across
the Raleigh road from the new class athletic field.
Just when work will begin on the three dormitories,
east of and beyond tin- Raleigh road from the new
dormitory quadrangle, has not been decided. The
steady rise in the cost of materials is a factor in the
situation. Fortunately, the University entered into a
contract for the purchase of large quantities of ce-
ment and brick before the prices of these began to go
up. so it is not in so embarrassing a predicament as it
mighl he. Yet it has not been thought wise to em-
hark upon this project at once. The prevailing opin-
ion seems to he thai the foundations of Hie first of the
I hive will be laid before the summer is past.
Work upon the Carolina Inn has already begun, to
the extent of preparing the site. The former Graves
house has Keen moved to the hack part of the lot and
will he used as a rooming place for students. The
architect ami contractors look forward to the com-
pletion of the inn ahoiit Christmas time.
Professor A. ('. Mcintosh, of the Law School, re-
ceived the degree of Doctor of Laws from Davidson
College at its recent commencement.
Dr. \V. D. Moss, pastor of the Presbyterian church
of Chapel Hill, is on a European trip this .summer.

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
ALUMNI AT THE 128th COMMENCEMENT
Although J. Pluvius conspired against 'em, Uni-
versity alumni returned to the recent commencement
in the largest numbers yet. And they enjoyed it ! If
the reception committee had not provided appropriate
and sufficient entertainment, no ardor was dampened.
These returning alumni were like the wise Virgins —
they had their lamps trimmed and burning!
The returning alumni seethed with activity from
Monday afternoon through Tuesday night, before re-
tiring to allow the faculty and graduates to come to
the front of the stage. On Monday afternoon at 3 :30
it started in a ball game on Emerson Field between
the Wonder Team of 1903 led by "Fatty" Giles and
a team representing the Faculty ranging from "Sher-
iff" Currie, '18, Secretary to the President, to Pro-
fessor James Frederick Dashiell, chief functionary in
the department of Psychology. There can be no
charge laid against the officials of the game, although
the faculty was slightly topped. However, everybody
was winded by the end of four innings, and the game
was called on "account of insufficient lung space."
Then there was the Local Officers' conference at 7:00
o'clock; the Reunion of the Golden Fleece; then the
Board of Directors' Meeting. Tuesday morning the
regular Business Meeting of the Association in
Gerrard Hall from 10:00 to noon; then the reunion
program, officially curtailed by the Honorable Francis
1). Winston, of Snakebite township; then there was
the luncheon, graced by the presence of more than
500 alumni and the eloquence of President "Pete"
Murphy, "Luns" Long, and "Nat" Townsend ; and
then it stopped raining for a few minutes and gave
Virginia opportunity to win a finely played ball game
on Emerson Field ; then the class dinners of '22, '18,
'13, '08, and '03;. and finally the performance of the
Carolina Playmakers complimentary to the alumni.
Local Officers' Conference
The first conference of Local Association Officers
was held at the Carolina Cafeteria at a dinner. 7
o'clock Monday, attended by officers of local clubs,
members of the Board of Directors, and other promi-
nently interested alumni. Those in attendance were
President Walter Murphy, Leslie Weil, Isaac S. Lon-
don, Chas. L. Weill, Katherine McD. Robinson, J. C.
B. Ehringhaus, W. F. Carr, L. R. Wilson, Albert L.
Cox, R. D. W. Connor, Francis F. Bradshaw, John

The meeting continued for about two hours, was
presided over by President Murphy, and the following
subjects were thoroughly discussed : The Present Con-
dition of the Alumni Association and its Possibilities.
by Secretary Grant ; Attitude of the Alumni Toward
this work — Its Inert Character, Albert L. Cox, of
Raleigh; the Workability of the Local Unit in the
Alumni Job, by Robert B. House, Secretary of the

the Raleigh Times.
Annual Business Meeting
At the annual business meeting on Alumni Day, by
unanimous consent the present elective officers — the
president and two vice-presidents — were continued in
office for another year. Agitation for this change

started last year shortly after the election, it being
considered wise at these early stages of getting the
work properly inaugurated that officers should not
change each year. Practically the entire Board "I'
Directors will continue for an additional year, and
President Murphy is expected to appoint two or three
other directors from the northern alumni groups.
Campus Beautiful
Dr. Wade II. Atkinson, of Washington, D. ('..
chairman of the Campus Beautiful Committee, re-
ported that his committee was prepared to go ahead
with the advertising of that important project, and
contemplated that by the end of this year sufficient
funds will have been raised to enable several beautifi-
cation projects to be inaugurated.
Graham Memorial
.Mr. C. Felix Harvey, of Kinston, a member of the
Graham Memorial committee, reported that it has
been found necessary to remake the plans for the
Graham Memorial Building on account of the tre-
mendous growth of the University in recent years, and
anticipated continued expansion. Originally the pro-
posal was to raise $150,000. It was reported by .Mi'.
Harvey that $123,000 had already been pledged and
a large part of it actually paid in.
Xow it is contemplated that a building adequate
to meet student needs will cost at least $400, 000, mak-
ing it necessary to raise near $.'100,000. The Commit-
tee is making during the summer a complete canvass
of the alumni in an effort to secure this money. A
trained assistant has been secured, and the commit-
tee proposes to use about 20 young University alumni
during the summer months in an effort to complete
the amount needed to carry into execution this im-
portant project.
Secretary Reports Progress
Secretary Grant next reported on the work of the
Association. His report, in full, will be printed and
sent to all alumni within the next ten davs. He
called special attention to six matters: (1) That
there are real difficulties in the way of effective
alumni work which the alumni must face and oxer-
come; (2) That of the 11,000 alumni recorded at the
beginning of the year only about 3000 could be easily
reached, those being the alumni on The Review mail-
ing list; (3) That a total of (I.") local associations had
been effectively organized; i4i That a permanent
class secretaries' bureau had been established for the
handling of class organizations; (5) That a pre-
liminary alumni catalogue would be published this
fall and a complete catalogue in 1924; (6) And that
the Association had had very poor success in raising
finances during the year and would need $7000 next
year for maintenance.
President Chase Summarizes Year
Preceding Secretary Grant's report, President
Chase presented a summary of the year's work (a
copy of which appears elsewhere in this issue), and
following the report a resolution concerning The Re-
view was passed looking to a closer cooperation be-
tween it and the Association.
Reunion Program
The classes back for their reunions were '83, '93,
e reunion program
'98, '03, 'OS, 13, 'IS, and '22. Th
was presided over by the renowned Francis D. Win-
ston, of Windsor, a toastmaster "than which there is
none than wicher." He was in fine fettle, opening
his remarks with "the Chairman of the meeting ad-
monished me that I have just one hour. I do not
know whether that includes the responses from the

T. R. Eagles from Birmingham, Hubert C. Petteway
from Lakeland, Florida ; Henry C. Smith from No-
gales, Arizona; I. W. Smithey from Morgantown, W.
Va., and Jasper L. Stucky from Ithaca.
The first to mount the platform were Colonel Wiley
Port, '62, of Fremont, and General Julian S. Carr,
'66, of Durham.
.Judge J. Crawford Biggs, of Raleigh; Major W. P.
Wooten, of Washington, D. C. ; James Pugh, of Bos-
ton ; Victor Whitlock, of New York ; and W. B. Snow,
of Raleigh, spoke for the class of 1893. For the class
of 1898, W. J. Brogden, of Durham, and Archibald
Henderson, of Chapel Hill, spoke. The class of 1903
juggled awhile and finally let J. L. Morehead, of
Durham, and Thos. J. Gold, of High Point do the
talking. The class of 1908 divided time between Jas.
A. Gray, of Winston-Salem, and Judge W. P. Stacy,
of Raleigh.
Class of '13 Presents Loyalty Fund With $1,500
The class of 1913 let money do the talking, by
presenting the Alumni Loyalty Fund with a check
for $1,500. This talking was ably supported by the
class president, Douglas L. Rights, of Winston-Salem.
John S. Terry transported his 300 or more pounds
of self all the way from New York City to lead his
class to the platform ; dividing talking honors with
Victory S. Bryant, of Durham.
And then Governor Winston — "Ladies and Gentle-
men, we now get to the kindergarten class. 1 have the
very distinguished honor of announcing the return
to their Alma Mater after months of labor of the
class of 1922. I now ask them to the platform and
shall be glad for anyone to speak that has the nerve
to do it." Jim Phipps, backed up by "Ratty" Ran-
son's cheering, announced that he understood that
"children were to be seen and not heard," but he in-
sisted on announcing that the class had already raised
$500 on its gift and that it expected to come back four
years hence with $3,000.
Alumni Luncheon
Alumni filled Swain Hall and enjoyed for the first
time the rain-eooled atmosphere, and for once were
comfortable. President Walter Murphy assumed the
reins as chief dictator, giving Governor Winston
"time out" to eat, and called upon N. A. Townsend.
and W. L. Long, two men who ably supported the
University in the last legislative session, to do the
talking.
Class Dinners
Five of the reunion classes gathered for a class
dinner on Tuesday evening. The class of '22 met at
the Carolina Cafeteria. Plans were made for the five
year reunion. But business didn't harm the fun. for
they were soon listening to such authorities as
"Tubby" Murdock and "Jack" Apple discussing
with measured preparation the important topics
Trials of Married Life and the Trials of a School
Teacher, respectively. "Tubby," it seems, went to
Alabama to work during the past year for an M.S. de-
gree and won instead an MRS. Nobody attempts to
explain how this all happened, for "Tubby's" career
at Carolina gave no warning. The co-eds of the class
carried through the day their part of the reunion
program, but really never flowered until the after-
dinner program was underway.
Class of '18 Plans Annual Reunions
John Terry graced the head of the table at the ']8
dinner. On the program were Miss Anna Forbes
Liddell, now of Ithaca, New York ; C. Holding, who
announced his candidacy for Governor; Bingham
McKee, with his waxed mustache; Bruce Webb, who
flew to the rescue when the plans for the reunion did
not get under way early; and Watt Weems Eagle.
A class treasury was provided, and Harding Butt, of
Chapel Hill, was elected permanent treasurer of the
class.
Ten-Year Class Has Dinner
This class, which had taken the lead at the reunion
program, had about 35 present for its dinner. Doug-

over the naught-eight class dinner. Retiring Secre-
tary M. Robins made a complete report concerning
those who were not in attendance at the reunion as
well as those who were present. Judge W. P. Stacy
was elected president and II. 1>. Gunter, secretary.
Class of '03 Has Dinner
The twenty-year class had about 30 present for its
dinner at the High School Cafeteria. Tom Gold, of
High Point, served as toastmaster. and everyone con-
tributed lo make it an occasion for fun. The unique
feature adopted by tl lass was to throw upon the
screen the pictures of the several men of the class as
they looked when they were graduated, twenty years
ago. Each one present was given a guess as to whose
picture each was as it was thrown upon the screen.
Arrangements were made to publish immediately a
class bulletin. The class also plans to make some sub-
stantial gift to the University at an early date, the
nature of the gift to be decided upon after a confer-
ence with the President. The Committee appointed
to handle this is composed of J. L. Morehead. Will F.
Carr, Graham Andrews, and N. W. Walker.
Plays Presented to Crowded House
The final event of the Alumni Day program was the
performance by the Carolina Playmakers who pre-
sented at the Playhouse Jane Toy's Agatha, and
Ernest Thompson's Mamma. The house was crowded
to overflowing. An added feature of the program was
the singing of Shakespearean songs during intermis-
sion, by T. II. Hamilton, E. S. Lindsey, and Hoy An-
derson. Those appearing prominently in the casts
were Sue Bird Thompson, of Norfolk. Katherine
Batts, of Tarboro, Ceo. V. Denny, of Chapel Hill, and
Charles Gold, of Greensboro— D. L. G.. '21.
ALUMNI DIRECTORY AVAILABLE IN FALL
The Alumni Catalogue will appear in October in an
abbreviated form. The complete book will appear the
latter part of next summer.
The abbreviated directory will be a pocket edition
printed on India paper, and will be issued for the
service it may be to the alumni and also in an effort
to get as complete a re-check as possible upon the
names and locations of University alumni before the
full book is given to the public. There are lots of
errors in the records as they now stand that can only
be eliminated by a large number of responses from
the alumni.
The complete directory which will be ready for dis-
tribution in the early fall of 1924 will be a handy
sized volume of from 1.000 to 1.200 pages, bound in
cloth. It will contain a complete roster of all Uni-
versity matriculates and graduates from 1795 to 1924
with the history of each, trustees of the institution,
officers of administration and faculty members to-
gether with class and geographical lists, and a full
index. Every effort will be made to make it complete
in every detail and as accurate as it is humanly pos-
sible to make it.
Tin' abbreviated directory which is to appear soon
will be sold at a nominal fee. Full announcement
concerning it will be made in The Review later.
E. B. Jeffress, '07, manager of the Greensboro Daily

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
PRESIDENT CHASE ADDRESSES THE ALUMNI
In addressing the annual meeting of the General
Alumni Association on Alumni Day, President Chase
spoke as follows:
Tlie graduation of the class which receives its degrees to-
morrow is significant in two respects; it is the first class we
have graduated since America entered the world war, whose
University career has been carried through wholly on a peace
time basis; and it. was this class who, as freshmen, first brought
lionie to us the period of great expansion on which the Uni-
versity was to enter.
It has occurred to me, therefore, that it is perhaps a natural
time to cast up accounts — to see what these four years of
peace and of rapid growth have meant to us, and what they
may foretell of our future. We have, I think, progressed far
enough during these four years to get, at any rate, a certain
perspective on our task. Let us look, then, very briefly, at
a few of the things that have been done and that remain to
be done.
Rapid Growth of Enrollment
The class that graduates tomorrow came to the University
in the fall of 1919. They formed part of a student body num-
bering 1350 — a student body larger by 300 than the University
had ever before enrolled; the beginning, in short, of our pres
ent period of expansion. The faculty was 90 in number, sala-
ries were so low that to meet the bare costs of living was a
serious problem. The University received from the State a
maintenance fund of $215,000 for the year, which, in the light
of the price levels that prevailed, was tragically inadequate.
Because of advanced prices, the bond issue of 1917, to the
amount of $500,000, had not resulted in the amount of con-
struction hoped for; dormitories planned to house 500 men
were housing over 700, and classroom and laboratory space
were totally inadequate. I need not retell the story further;
it is fresh in your minds.
During its stay at the University our graduating class has
seen the student body increased to 1952, an average increase of
200 a year, an increase of 45 percent. It has seen the faculty
increased from 90 to 134, just about the same percentage as
the student increase. It has seen the maintenance funds of the
University more than doubled, a fact which has allowed both an
increased faculty and increased salaries for the entire staff.
In addition to scores of minor construction projects, it has wit-
nessed tie erection of eight major buildings by the University,
an average of one for each six months of its stay.
New Schools Established
Of new lines of activity undertaken by the University since
its arrival here, the School of Commerce, established in 1919,
enrolled this year over 500 students; the School of Public, Wel-
fare, established a year later, is attracting national recogni-
tion by its work and its publications. A department of music
has been added, the engineering departments have been reor-
ganized as a School of Engineering. The entire business man-
agement of the University has been recast; no private corpo-
ration, I believe, handles its funds with any greater care or
accuracy. The whole administrative machinery of the. Univer-
sity has been reorganized along lines that permit its easy ex-
pansion to the tasks of a considerably larger institution. The
library, that great central workshop of a modern institution,
has added nearly 30,000 volumes to its stacks during the
period, and its available funds have doubled. The scope and
effectiveness of the University 's extension service has greatly
increased. The Graduate School, center of training for schol-
ars and teachers of the future, has more than doubled, with an
enrollment of nearly 250 during the last twelve months.
Building for the Future
I have jotted these items down as they occurred to me; they
are, I think, representative. I cannot better sum up the spirit
in which we have tried to do this work than by quoting a. re-
mark of a representative of one of the great educational foun-
dations who spent some time with us recently, looking with
some care into our situation. He said, when he was leaving,
' ' The impression the whole thing makes on me is that you
here have been building for the future. ' ' He had sensed. I
think, what all of us have resolutely tried to keep in mind;
that the pressure of daily tasks, heavy as that pressure has
been, must not cause us to forget, the fundamental importance
of thinking ahead of our immediate problems; that at this
plastic period in the University's history it was essential that,
to the best of our ability, we should lay sound foundations
for what was to come.
Held in Esteem at Home
There are, I suppose, two measures of the vitality of an in-
stitution. The first is its place in the affections and the es-
teem of its own people. One measure of this is to be found
in the size and character of the student, body. With its rapid
increase in size, we are all familiar; of its representative char-
acter, I may say that over 90 per cent of its membership is
from North Carolina, that, it comes this year from 96 of our
100 counties, that there is literally almost no type of home
within the borders of the State that it does not include. Of
its seriousness of purpose, I will merely say that over 700 of
its membership are earning all or a part of their way through
the University, either by summer work or by self-help activi-
ties here, or both.

THE ALUMNI REVIEW

That North Carolina so willingly entrusts to ns her sons is
the best token of her confidence we could ask. That citizens
all over the State have joined hands in advancing the Univer-
sity's cause, in making possible her greater prosperity, in
adding strength and power to her arm — this lias witnessed a
faith and confidence in what the University is and stands for
that has placed us under heavy obligation to make good that
trust. The State has shown, indeed, such confidence and trust
as to challenge our very effort to be worthy of it, — such an at-
titude and spirit as I believe firmly can be matched nowhere
else in the whole South. That we may match in our own
achievements here the achievements of the State is our earnest
prayer.
Rated High Outside
A second measure of vitality is the reputation which an in-
stitution achieves in educational circles outside its own State.
Striking testimony to the rank to which the University has at-
tained among educational institutions of the country is af-
forded by its recent admission to the Association of American
Universities. This Association during the twenty-four years
of its existence has never, with the exception of the University
of Virginia, admitted any Southern institution to membership;
it consists of twenty five institutions: Harvard, Yale, Chicago,
Johns Hopkins, Princeton, Columbia, and such great state uni-
versities as Michigan, Iowa, California, anil Minnesota. The
University of North Carolina was admitted to its roll last fall
with the unanimous recommendation of its Executive Commit-
tee — the eleventh institution to be added to the list of its
charter members during twenty four years. This action places
the University securely among the first-class institutions of the
country, by the verdict of its own peers. It is an outstanding
tribute to the quality and the work of its faculty — and that
such a faculty is assembled here should be a source of gratifi-
cation to every North Carolinian; it means that the educa-
tional opportunities open here to his sons are distinctive and
of first quality.
Fine Cooperation Exhibited
I cannot recall what has been done during this critical time
without being very deeply impressed by this fact; that it has
been achieved through cooperative effort; through the working
together in one great enterprise of trustees, faculty, alumni,
students, and citizens of the State. That seems constantly to
me a very distinctive thing ahout our history lev these years.
All have joined hands to make possible such results as I have
outlined; all have contributed in their various capacities. The
loyalty and service of the alumni have been beyond praise;
the University is your eternal debtor.
A Look into the Future
Now a word as to the immediate future. Our maintenance
funds from the State for the coming two-year period are, for
the first year, $650,000, and, for the second. $725. i""'. With
an anticipated increase of 500 students during the two-year
period, and the necessary expansion and strengthening to pro-
vide for, the University will again be put to it to keep up with
its growth, but it is happy in the knowledge that two suc-
cessive legislatures have so enlarged the material basis of its
support. For buildings and permanent improvements we have
available $1,650,000 for the two-year period. Plans for this
expenditure have been worked out by the Building Commit
tee of the Trustees, and endorsed by the Executive Commit-
tee. In general these provide for a balancing of expenditures
— for the attempt to care for the plant we have as well as to
add new construction. As a beginning, the (ll.l East and Old
West will be closed this summer, and thoroughly renovated on
the inside. Recreational facilities are to be increased by the
addition of some thirty-five tennis courts, and by the erection
of a one-story building shell, enclosing a floor space 100 by 3110,
for general student use. A new chemistry laboratory will be
erected; three new dormitories will be built across the Raleigh
Road from the quadrangle. The discussion over the woman 's
building seems to me to have been happily adjusted. It arose,
I think, from a confusion and misunderstanding as to the I'ni
versify 's policy with respect to coeducation, which I trust is
now clarified, and I believe has been clarified in a way that has
met general agreement. A woman's building erected under
this policy is simply a concrete establishment of the Univer-
sity's existing position, and in no sense a declaration of a
departure therefrom.
Building Program Must Be Continued
Now what as to the future.' In the first place, you will re-
member that in the fall of 1020 we presented a program — a
six year program — based on the estimate that by 1926 1927 the
University would enroll 3000 students. Our enrollment at this
time (1922-23) we estimated would be approximately 2000. We
have actually enrolled this session 1952 — that is, we came
within 48 of our estimate, made nearly three years ago. We
would, as a matter of fact, have exceeded it, had not changes
in our entrance requirements made during the period been such
as to affect some 75 or 80 men who applied for entrance last
fall, many of whom will, after another year's work, be with
us next fall, undoubtedly. With the enormous growth in the
high schools all over the state — a growth that is accelerating
rather than decreasing, with the fact that our past predictions
so closely foreshadowed the actual situation, 1 am confident
that we will have 3000 in the time we set. Now our estimate
of the amount required to do the work of making the Uni-
versity a proper place for 3000 students to come to and live
in, in a material way — our estimate made a part of the $20,-
000,000 program and submitted to the legislature of 1921, was
approximately five and a half million dollars for buildings and
permanent improvements. Some alterations have been made
in that program as we went along; some things we had
planned to do in one way have been cared for in another, ami
some needs exist that we did not clearly foresee, but the total
figures cannot, I believe, be reduced. If anything, the further
we get into our program, the more needs we find. Our two

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
legislative appropriations from bond issues total $3,100,000,
leaving some $2,500,000 still essential if a well rounded pro-
gram for 3000 students is to be carried out. Legislative ap-
propriations have been generous, but, as a matter of fact, they
have not kept pace with what will be necessary if the program
is to he rounded out within the allotted time, if the six year
program is to be carried through. We. are still a long distance
from our goal. Our great danger, as I see it, is that, if the
program as a whole is not carried through, we will be creating
here a badly balanced institution. 1 mean that we have other
responsibilities to our students than those of housing and
teaching them, important as these are. We must create an
environment that is, in an all-around way, a good place for
them to live in — that ensures their development into well
rounded citizens. Aside from the Graham Memorial Building,
designed as a student social center (plans for which are pre-
sented by a member of the committee), two of our outstand-
ing needs of this character just now are for a gymnasium and
for a library. I do not need to tell a group of alumni why
we need both of these buildings. I do want to make definitely
the point that an institution that trains large numbers of
young men for healthy manhood has material needs that are
not exhausted when sufficient dormitories and classroom build-
ings are erected. Our growth, I believe, has only just begun.
We must plan for it in a properly balanced way, in buildings,
as in all else.
Growth Entails New Problems
Again, no one of us here has, I think, underestimated the
importance of the many problems raised by the bringing to-
gether of large numbers of students on a single campus. It
has occurred to all of you, 1 know, that the problem of personal
contacts, that solves itself in a small community, must be
worked out in a planful way in a large group. It is my firm
belief that no individual need be lost in the machinery of a
large institution; that the problem is one that can be solved
by intelligently organizing for its solution. We are making, I
am convinced, very hopeful beginnings; by the development
of inter-dormitory athletics and dormitory organization, by the
work of the Dean of Students, which has this year centered
especially on Freshmen, by the social program of the Y. M. C.
A., by the conversion of Memorial Hall into a usable chapel,
and by the work of forty-nine volunteer members of the fac-
ulty who have acted as advisors, each to a group of Freshmen,
with results that have been distinctly encouraging. We are
mal'ing next year the beginnings of an attempt to furnish to
slmlnits systematic advice on vocations; we have given to all
Freshmen this year, and will continue, mental tests that will
be of increasing value as they are continued year by year; in
short, as we make some progress in putting together the re-
sources of a large institution to help individuals find them-
selves, I am more and more of the opinion that the large in-
stitution can carry, if only it sets its mind to it, real helpful-
ness to the individual, in things outside the classroom, just as
far, and perhaps farther, than can the small college.
Service the Main Objective
I wish thai time allowed me to continue, but I must step
aside. I have said much of funds, of buildings and equipment.
May I merely add in closing that we have striven constantly to
keep in mind that these are, after all, but means to an end —
that the real test of a University is the wisdom with which
these things are utilized for the real end of it all, for teach-
ing, and scholarship, and service to the State. It is as we ad-
vance or recede in these things that we succeed or fail — it is
to advance them that we ask your sympathetic understanding
and your cooperation.
CLASS DAY EXERCISES HELD
Rain, the first experienced in Chapel Hill for some
thirty or forty days and nights, threw ('lass Day exer-
cises somewhat out of gear. However, the class of
1923 carried its program through and made a day
long' to he remembered of it.
The day started with Professor Williams conduct-
ing the final Chapel Exercises. President Chase, in
the absence of "Mule" Shirley, away with the team
at Charlottesville, said the final word to the seniors
and conducted the contest for the Mangum Medal in
which A. F. Essie. J. Y. Kerr, and Victor Young
were the orators. A reception by President and Mrs.
Chase followed the game between 1903 and the fac-
ulty, and at 6 o'clock, in Memorial Hall, C. H. Ash-
ford gave the class statistics, N. C. Barefoot recounted
the class history, J. J. Beale presented the last will
and testament. Miss Jane Toy read the class prophecy,
R. B. Felton recited the class poem, J. P. Trotter pre-
sented the class gift, and J. O. Harmon, president of
the student body, turned the campus over to presi-
dent-elect J. R. Allshrook, of the Junior class. The
pipe of peace went the rounds and the day for the
seniors was over.
At eight o'clock W. F. Somers and C. A. Peeler, of
the Di, and Z. T. Fortescue and C. E. Spencer, of the
Phi, fought for the Bingham Medal over the query
Resolved. That France was justified in entering the
Ruhr. The Phi won, the medal going to C. E. Spencer
for the best speech. Following the debate reunions
were held in the society halls for the benefit of the
returning alumni.

BATTLE APPEALS FOR A WORLD COURT
Speaking to the largest audience ever packed into
Memorial Hall. George Gordon Battle, native son of
Carolina long resident in New York City, recalled in
delightful reminiscence the scenes and personages of
the University in 1881, and following a masterful ex-
position (if the proposed world court, called upon the
ill's members of the graduating class and the State of
North Carolina to enlist in the cause of international
justice. His thumb-nail sketches of Ransom. Vance,
Jarvis, Battle, Manning, Alderman, and Mclver
caused those worthies seemingly to occupy anew their
positions upon the platform, and a storm of applause
greeted him when, in concluding, he said:
Tlie history of revealed religion is largely a story of long
struggle of man to curb his savage desires, to respect the
rights uf others and to accept the arbitraments of justice.
George Gordox Battle, '85
Baccalaureate Speaker
Now to our nation has conic the opportunity to put into effect
tin yearnings and the aspirations uf tin- centuries. No influ-
ence is so helpful for peace as the belief that there is an avail-
able and appropriate tribunal from which just decisions may
be expected. You will remember that the Star of Bethlehem
led the Wise Men uf the East to the birthplace of the Prince
of Peace. It may well be that the light of justice radiating
from this court may guide all nations into an era of peace ou
earth and good will to men.
Governor Morrison Speaks
After the presentation of diplomas, Governor Mor-
rison addressed the graduating class. Devotion to
North Carolina was his theme. He urged the young
men and young women now leaving the University to
use their talents and their training in the service of
the commonwealth. He said that all the colleges and
the schools of North Carolina had more students
graduating this year than ever before. The high
schools were giving diplomas to about 6,000.
His remarks in concluding were as follows:
I welcome you young men and young women into the ranks
of the "grown folks." I want you to give a very part of
your heart and soul to the aid of those who are not well
trained as you are, to the end that the time may come when
there are no more weak and untrained and illiterate people
in all of North Carolina. Have solicitude for those who are
less fortunate than yourselves.
Cathey and Worsham Receive Ovation
Praise for the manifestation of indomitable spirit
was evidenced by the audience when Samuel Murston
Cathey and Blackburn Buford Worsham, two blind
seniors, received their diplomas from the hand of Gov-
ernor Morrison. At the beginning of the exercises
President Chase had requested the audience not to
applaud the recipients of degrees in course for fear
that the exercises would be unduly prolonged. But
the audience broke over when these two favorites of
the campus carried away from the platform the di-
plomas in the acquisitio nof which they had pluckily
overcome seemingly insurmountable difficulties.
Honorary Degrees Conferred
The concluding event of the brilliant ceremonial
which brought the 128th Commencement to a close
was the conferring of honorary degrees upon five men
of prominence in recognition of their public services.
Dr. Archibald Henderson, chairman of the faculty
committee on public occasions, presented the recipi-
ents, and President Chase conferred the degrees.
United States Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia,
who delivered the University commencement address
last year, was the first candidate presented by Dr.
Henderson. He was given an ovation and Dr. Hen-
derson brought cheers again as he cited him as chief
author of the Federal Reserve act which aided in re-
deeming agriculture from the ' ' bondage of Wall
Street."
frank Page, chairman of the State Highway Com-
mission, was next presented as ' ' without peer in
America" in road building; General duliau S. Carr,
of Durham, as a "loyal son of the University," and
Associate Justice YV. P. Stacy as one who had won
great honor in his chosen profession and who had
manifested the highest ideals. These four received
the degree of Doctor of Laws. The degree of Doctor
of Divinity was conferred upon liev. N. H. D. Wilson,
of Elizabeth City, a graduate of the University, for
"wise tolerance, broad sympathy, and rare skill in
the conduct of church affairs of large import."
Features of the Day
Other features of 1 he day were the awarding of
thirty-eight .Masters degrees and four Doctors of Phil-
osophy— the largest totals in the history of the Uni-
versity, the announcement by President Chase of
the gift of a grand piano for use in Memorial Hall,
by Mr. Fred L. Seely, and the action of the Trustees
in deciding to memorialize the next general assembly
for the establishment and maintenance of a 200-bed
hospital in connection wilh a four-year medical school,
the question of location to be referred to the Council
on Education of the American Medical Association.

cession led by the Fifth Regiment band from Camp

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
FOUR ALUMNI RECEIVE HONORARY DEGREES
In a most impressive ceremony four distinguished
alumni of the University received honorary degrees
at the 128th Commencement in recognition of their
splendid public service, the presentations and awards
being made by Dr. Archibald Henderson and Presi-
dent Chase, as follows:
Presenting Gen. Julian S. Carr, Dr. Henderson said:
Julian Shakespeare Carr, a native of Chapel Hill and pe-
culiarly a son of the University, being born on University day,
October 12, 1845. Educated at the village school, lie entered
the University at the age of sixteen, but before he had finished
the course, patriotically donned Confederate gray and helped
to fill Lee's depleted ranks, enlisting as a private in company
K, Third North Carolina Cavalry, Barringer's Brigade. Re-
ceived the degree of A. P.. from his University in 1911, as of
1866. After the war he became North Carolina's greatest cap-
tain of industry of that day, developing the tobacco business
until it grew into a mammoth industry. With a patriotism
which sprang from the heart, and a liberality unexcelled for
its breadth, he gave himself without stint to the development
anil upbuilding of his native State. The mere catalogue of
the institutions he directed, the causes he supported, even
without comment, would in itself constitute a worthy and noble
monument. Leader in business, in philanthropy, in politics, in
the support of education, in the organization of the United
Confederate Veterans in which he has held the very highest
posts, in all creative efforts for the making of a great Com-
monwealth.
Responding, President Chase said:
Julian Shakespeare Carr: Throughout your long and distin-
guished life you have steadily striven to advance the public
good; every movement to advanee the welfare of your beloved
State has found in you an active and unselfish ally. You, sir,
have made yourself a secure place in the affection and esteem
of your State and of your University, and in visible token
thereof we confer on you today the degree of doctor of laws.
Presenting State Highway Commissioner Frank Page, Dr.
Henderson said :
Frank Page, born at Gary, N. C, February 22, 1875. Re-
ceived, his preparatory education in Davis Military school.
During the years 1894-1895 lie eras a student of the University
of North Carolina. For some years he was engaged in im-
portant business and engineering projects, winning reputation
mid public confidence as financier, administrator and construc-
tor of public works. During the World War he. served in an
important capacity in Prance in the construction of military
roads. In 1921 he was appointed to the high and responsible
position of chairman of the North Carolina State Highway
Commission, to which was entrusted the momentous task of ex-
pending, adeipiately and judiciously, the great sum of sixty-
five million dollars in the building of the good roads system of
North Carolina. The successful carrying out of that tremen-
dous undertaking attracted the approbation of road experts
throughout the country. On the score of ability, efficiency and
adequate accomplishment of a monumental task, the highway
organization he created and directed is without a peer in
America.
Responding, President Chase said:
Frank Page: You have directed with outstanding success
the greatest material achievement which any Southern State
has ever undertaken; you have viewed your task always as an
opportunity to render large and effective public service;
through the highways you have built, you have helped to build
a greater ami more unified Commonwealth. For the splendid
service you have done your State, the University confers on
you the degree of doctor of laws.
Presenting Justice W. P. Stacy, Dr. Henderson said:
Walter Parker Stacy, born in Ansonville, N. C, December,
1884. Received his preparatory education at Weaverville Col-
lege 1895-8, and at Morveii high school 1899-1902. Distin-
guished for sound scholarship and astute leadership of his Eel
lows at the University of North Carolina where he was gradu-
ated with tin- bachelor of arts degree in 1908. After attending
the University of North Carolina law scl I (1908-09), he re
ceived his license to practice law. Represented New Hanover
County in I he General Assembly of 1915. Served with unusual
distinction and popular favor as judge of the superior court of
the eighth judicial district from 1916 to 1919. Since his elec-
tion in 1920 he has been an associate justice of the supreme
court of North Carolina — winning plaudits for his legal learn-
ing, judicial balance and able opinions.
Responding, President Chase said:
Walter Parker Stacy: You, sir, have attained in a few brief

years to great eminence in your chosen profession; not only
this, but you have embodied in every aspect and relationship
of your career the finest ideals of this, your Alma Mater, who
today confers on you the degree of doctor of laws.
Presenting Rev. N. H. D. Wilson for the degree of doctor of
divinity, Dr. Henderson said:
Nathan Hunt Daniel Wilson, born in Greensboro, N. C,
January 26, 1866. Received his early education in the graded
schools of Greensboro and was graduated from the University
of North Carolina with the degree of A. Pi., winning the highest
honors of his class and delivering the valedictory oration.
After teaching school lor one year in Montgomery county and
studying four years at Yunilerbilf University, whence he re-
ceived the degree of B.D., in 1890, he joined the North Caro-
lina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in
1891. During the course of a ministry characterized by unre-
mitting labor and consecrated devotion, he has had many
charges, acted for a period of years as presiding elder of the
Wilmington and Washington districts and held high posts in
the gift of his church. In those positions lie has displayed wise
tolerance, broad sympathy and rare skill in the conduct of
church affars of large import. Distinguished as exemplar and
interpreter of the highest ideals of the University of North
( 'arolina.
Responding, President Chase said:
Nathan Hunt Daniel Wilson: With steadfast devotion and
high consecration, you, worthy son of this University, have
steadily striven for the advancement of the Kingdom of the
Master, whom you serve. For what you have done in His Spirit
your Alma Mater confers on you the degree, of doctor of
divinity.

HEARD AND SEEN AROUND THE WELL
You ought to see the old well now! The few boys
that arc around have that hunted look that comes
from trying to keep on good terms with five summer-
school girls at the same time. But matters of this sort
are in better shape this summer than ever before, be-
cause with the advent of the twelve-week summer
school there has been an increase in the enrollment of
University students that makes the proportions more
workable. There are this summer about three hun-
Jutige Walter P. Stai y. '08
Recipient ok the LL.D. Degree
dred regular University students in the summer quar-
ter. It makes one realize that it is probably only a
matter of time until the regular enterprises of student
life will go right on for the whole year.
Publications Union Formed
One of the final acts of the student-body of ':>:2-'2:>
was the definite launching of the Student Publications
Union. Beginning next fall the three student publi-
cations will be in the hands of the Union, which in-
cludes all students and which administers complete
control through a board composed of three students
and two members of the Faculty. For the next two
years there is a blanket fee of $5.50 to be paid by all
students, in return for which each man will receive the
Tar II" I. the Magazine, and the Yackety Yack for the
year, in other words for $.50 more than he has been
paying for the Yackety Yack alone he gets all three
publications. The Hoard for next year is composed of
Reid Kitchen, Knox Massey, and H. II. Maultsby
from the students, and Professors Matherly and llib-
bard from the facility. This board has worked in real
earnest on organization and has made plans next year
to include a central cashier who will handle all funds,
a compensation for the business managers which will
allow the publications to accumulate working capital.
a tri-weekly Tar Heel after Christmas, a business-like
accounting system, and a. regular schedule of adver-
tising rates. It is contemplated that the alumni will
be offered the opportunity to subscribe to all three
publications on the same flat rate as the blanket fee
or to subscribe to the two periodicals at a special rate
lower than for the two separately. Another striking
feature of this plan which has been launched is the
two-year limit on the blanket fee. At the expiration
of that time the fee will be automatically discontinued
unless re-voted. In general it may be said that the
Publications Union is the best possible plan of organ-
ization for student publications. There is none better
anywhere in the country. A visiting representative
of a great printing concern made the remark that by
voting this plan the students of this University had
definitely put their publications in a class by them-
selves so far as southern colleges were concerned and
on a par with Cornell and Michigan and Massachu-
setts Tech., which have been recognized as leading in
this particular enterprise. With a guaranteed circu-
lation of over two thousand and with an organization
which makes it possible for the first time to accumu-
late experience and capital the student publications
of the Carolina Campus arc oft' for a fine career of
progress.
Dances Made Better
"Will there be any commencement dances.'" This
was one of the questions that divided interest with
examinations. It arose from the faculty action which
said that there would not be any finals this year un-
less the German Club gave effective guarantees that
the dances would be entirely creditable, not only as
touching conduct on the floor but during the entire
dance period. Here, just as all over the country, for
the last many years there has been considerable drink-
ing among a minority of those attending the dances.
In an effort to stop this the German Club took action
last fall requiring every man admitted to the dances
to sie-n a pledge that he would not take any intoxicant
for six hours before and during the dance. This
measure greatly improved conditions on the dance
floor. The Easter dances held under this system were
conspicuously free from the taint of liquor so far as
the floor was concerned. However, at the conclusion
of the dances there was a let down and the small
hours of the morning saw disorder that definitely
blotted tin' clean record. Then during two successive
week-ends about a month after Easter there were
small organization dances which were not definitely
under the German Club. These occasions were ac-
companied by much drinking. The community was so
outraged by these incidents that the faculty action al-
luded to was taken without a dissenting voice and
President ('base presented the issue to the German
('lub. The reorganization that followed abolished
the pledge system, installed a German Club commit-
tee of ten members who should supervise all dances
ami have the power to suspend from all dances Eor
the period of one year any person who should be
guilty of misconduct before, during, or after the
dances, organized a board of chaperones with Mrs.
Chase as chairman, this board appointing a smaller
board of about six chaperones and a chairman for
each dai , abolished after-dance feeds and "late-
dates." and stiffened the enforcement of standing

leaving the hall during the dance. The outcome of
the matter was that permission was given for the first
dance of the series with the understanding that for
cause succeeding dances might he discontinued. The
dances were held with great success. The men on the
German Club committee did effective work and a new
record for fine dances was made. The committee has
debarred from all University dances for one year four
men. All future dances at the University, under the
arrangement now in force, will lie held under the
general supervision of the German Club.
Big Year in Debate
The day when a junior or senior went out for an
intercollegiate debate, hung his fob to his watch and
retired from the field with his honor, seems to be past.
This year one man participated in five inter-collegiate
forensic contests and another in three. When the stu-
dent body passed 1055 to 244 the measure for a
blanket Pee of fifty cents for the support of the inter-
collegiate debate program they inaugurated a greatly
enlarged schedule of contests in this intellectual sport
in which this University has won 65 per cent of the
honors during the past twenty-five years. The
season 's results were as follows :
Southern Chain Debate. Lost to South Carolina.
Allied Debt Cancellation. Won from Oglethorpe.
George Washington University defeated by N. C.
Decision rendered by almost unanimous vote of audi-
ence.
Annual Triangular Debate. Lost to Washington
and Lee. Won from Johns Hopkins.
National Literary Society Debate. Took first place
in competition with eight leading American univer-
sities.
Lost to University of Kentucky on Excess Profits
Tax. Lost to University of West Virginia on same
subject.
First Freshman Intercollegiate contest won from
both Trinity and Wake Forest.
Total won— 6. Total lost— 4.
Fine Delegation at Blue Ridge
Word comes from the mountains that the Carolina
delegation to the Southern Student Conference at Blue
Ridge numbers fifty, the largest of the whole confer-
ence. With almost all the members of student admin-
istration present at this great clearing house of stu-
dent opinion, this conference will play a big part in
determining student policy next year on this campus.
The delegation had almost a perfect record of attend-
ance at the various classes in the conference, and in
inter-collegiate athletic contests won the baseball, vol-
ley-ball, swimming, and heavy weight wrestling cham-
pionships, thereby attaining the position of general
athletic champions and winning the conference ban-
ner for which we were runners-up last summer.
Fleece Holds Reunion
One of the outstanding student events of the past
Commencement was the reunion banquet of the Sen-
ior I Irder of Golden Fleece. The following thirty-odd
of ISO men lapped by that order during its twenty
years of existence were present: General Albert L.

Cox as one of the charter members talked about the
history of the founding of the order. The assembling
of a history of its members was authorized and R. B.
House assigned to the job in collaboration with L. J.
Phipps. After this transaction of business the meet-
ing enjoyed a recital of personal histories and of the
horrors of initiation, past and present. The Order
adjourned to assemble next Commencement and this,
the first of its reunions, became thereby the inaugura-
tion of a precedent, a new Commencement pleasure.
Whether working for father, selling aluminum or
bibles, lecturing to tourists at the seashore, or organiz-
ing house-parties, those who have left the Well to its
silent communion with the Poplar are missed by one
who has enjoyed watching their life and listening to
their talk for' The Review this year.— F. F. B. '16.

as "Mike" Dunnagan, graduated from the Pulitzer
School of Journalism of Columbia University, June

cises, before going to Asheville, where he has taken
the position of managing editor of the Citizen. Be-
fore going to Columbia Mr. Dunnagan was city editor
of the Charlotte Observer and at one time was city
editor of the Winston-Salem Journal.

THE GRAHAM MEMORIAL WILL BE COMPLETED
According to plans announced on Alumni Day by
C. Felix Harvey, '92, of the Graham Memorial com-
mittee, plans have been perfected for the completion
of the campaign for raising subscriptions for the
building, and twenty alumni and students of the Uni-
versity are now at work in increasing and collecting
old subscriptions and securing new subscriptions to
bring the total for the building, a perspective of
which appears on the front cover of this issue, up to
$400,000.
in taking up the work anew, which was stopped by
the depression of 1920, the committee is asking for the
fullest sort of cooperation on the part of the alumni.
Since the undertaking was first proposed in Decem-
ber, 1918, the size of the student body has doubled,
the State has greatly increased the building funds of
the University, and the type of building now being
erected on the campus is such as to require an outlay
within the next few years of $400,000 to secure a
building that will be adequate. Of this amount $123,-
000 has been subscribed, $80,000 has been paid in,
the plans have been drawn, and it is hoped that with
the increased subscriptions and cash paid in the cen-
tral unit, which will cost $200,000, can be begun in
1923-24.
To Occupy Old Inn Site
The building, which will be of the late Georgian
style of architecture, brick with limestone trimmings,
will face the Battle-Vance-Pettigrew dormitories, with
appropriate north and south faces on Franklin Street
and the walk way between the Inn and Alumni
building. .
Purpose of Building
The purpose of the building is to secure a general
get-together center for the student body and special
quarters for student activities. Accordingly, in work-
ing out the plans, a large social room forty by eighty
feel has been provided on the first floor which is easily
a ssible from the front and capable of being used
for a variety of purposes such as class and alumni
banquets, group singing, movie exhibits, dances, etc.
Entrance to this room from a spacious portico, which
can be used in open weather, will also give direct ac-
cess to stairways leading up and down, coat room, ad-
ministrative office, serving room, and ladies reception
room. In the south and north wings will be rooms
for musical clubs, college publications, the student
council, athletic and other organizations, and a read-
ing room. In III'' basement beneath the social room
will be a cafeteria for use in the evening to supph
sandwiches, soft drinks, etc. A Wcll-c,|lil|,pcd kitchen
will be provided, with a system of dumb-waiters eon
ncclcd with the upper stories to take can- of banquets
an ,l d u b dinners. The remainder of the basemenl
will be devoted to toilets, wash rooms, a barber shop,
and storage space.
Second Floor Layout
The layout of the second Hour is planned exclusively
for student activities In tl enter there will be
eighl small rooms twelve by twentj one feet which, by
means of folding d 'S, can be thrown into one large
room, and three additional rooms averaging twenty
one by twenty-three feet. All of these rooms are to
be connected with dumb-waiter service from the
kitchen and can be used for various purposes. The
north and south units will be laid out in a similar way
and will provide additional space for the rapidly in-
creasing number of student organizations.
Future Expansion Possible
In the more distant future, if the student body
numbers 5000 or more, it will be possible to extend
the central unit to the east as ample space remains on
t he plot for this purpose.
The plans, as previously announced, have been
worked out by Mr. Kendall, of McKim, Meade, and
White, and Mr. Nash, of the Atwood organization, in
conference with the members of the Graham Memorial
(Committee.
GIFTS TO THE LIBRARY
Two of the most distinctive gifts received by the li-
brary in recent years are those of early North Caro-
lina newspapers made by Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, of
Winston-Salem, and the Rowan Historical Society, of
Salisbury. The gift from Mrs. Patterson, made in
memory of her husband, the late Lindsay Patter-
son, of the class of 'iS, is particularly rich in files
running from 1850 to 1870 of such papers as the Ral-
eigh Standard, the North Carolina Sentinel, the Char-
lotte Democrat, the Raleigh Register, the Church In-
telligencer, early North Carolina pamphlets, a file of
the National Intelligencer, numerous clippings of his-
torical material from more recent publications, and a
number of letters and account books from 1810 to
1840.
The gift from the Rowan Historical Society consists
of a practically continuous run of Salisbury news-
papers, such as the Western Carolinian, the Watch-
mam and Old North State, Old North State, and Caro-
lina Wat rlt man from 1830 to 1890. The latter gift,
which constitutes one of the longest runs of news-
papers ever received by the library, was secured
through Dr. Archibald Henderson, who himself has
recently presented the library with a beautiful repro-
duction of the picture of the first legislature of the
Colony of Transylvania which hangs in the State
House in Frankfort, Kentucky. The Library has also
received by way of an addition to the collection pre-
sented several years ago b\ the family of the late Col.
A. B. Andrews thirteen bound volumes of the annual
reports and proceedings of the various railroads of
North Carolina. The reports, 226 in number, were
collected b.\ Colonel Andrews during his connection
with tin- Southern Railway, and comprise practically
the entire earlj history of railway development in
Xort h ( Carolina.
DR. CHASE GIVEN DEGREE
Presidenl II. W. Chase, of the University, received

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
CAROLINA ENDS BASEBALL SEASON WITH
BRILLIANT SERIES OF VICTORIES
With eight losses, two ties, and eleven victories out
of twenty-one games played, the Carolina baseball
team has finished a season brilliantly that began with
reverses and looked like a bad cause. The finest thing
about the year was the winning of two out of three
games from Virginia and the carrying of Tar Heel
victories over the Old Dominion to eight consecutive
wins. The famous Greensboro classic resulted in a 2
to 1 victory and the game at Charlottesville gave a 12
to 3 win to Fetzer's team on June 11, but the return
game at Chapel Hill the following day turned out
Virginia's first victory over Carolina in three years.
The score was 3 to 4.
The game was played on Alumni Day and in the
ninth inning with the score 4 to 3 for Virginia and
three men on bases and with but one man out. Captain
"Casey" Morris hit into a double play at second that
brought it to a lightning-like end and left the throngs
of alumni stunned in their tracks. It had looked like
another great rally and from a baseball sense the
finish was pure luck.
The end of the season saw two Carolina stars finish
their four years of service. Joe McLean, of four years
steady work at second base, and Ed Sweetman, out-
fielder who has played brilliantly in the field for four
seasons and hit we'll most of the time except this last
year. "Mule" Shirley, considered among the two or
three best tirst basemen Carolina has ever produced,
was elected captain for next year and it is hoped he
will return although he has a professional contract
with the Norfolk, Virginia, club. Shirley led his team
in hitting this year with an average of .413 and it is
believed that he is the first man within the last several
years who has established such a record. Six of his
hits were for two bases, four for three and he got one
home run. He was the logical man for the job and
the student body has great confidence in his ability to
lead next year's team.
The last issue of The Review carried the season
through the first Virginia game in Greensboro and it
was riulit after this game that the team took a slump
and, without the services of the veteran Joe McLean,
confined to his medical studies, went on the southern
trip, that resulted in one victory, one tie and three de-
feats. Auburn was met and tied 4 and 4 on April 30
and Alabama won from the Tar Heels next day by a
score of 8 to 3. Georgia crushed the Carolina team at
Athens on May 2, 9 to 1. Mercer was defeated next
day 6 to 2. There were two games scheduled with
Georgia Tech lor the trip but the first one was rained
out and the second one, played in Atlanta on May 5,
resulted in an 8 to 3 victory for Tech. Rryson started
this game on the mound and went well, but Fetzer
decided to use Ferebee, hero of the first Virginia
game, for the last half of the game and the youngster
went wild, forcing several men over.
The team returned to Chapel Hill to meet Wake
Forest on Emerson Field on May 8 and showed the
result of its trip by playing lifeless ball against the
Baptists, who won It to 3. Then Fetzer seemed to put
new life into his squad. Trinity was claiming the
State championship by virtue of her victory over
Carolina and the hitter's lost game to Wake Forest.
The second X. ('. Stale game was played on Emerson
Field on .May 12 and it was a different Tar Heel team
that won by a score of 11 to 4. It was the beginning
of a brilliant finish. Ferebee pitched and held the
Techs to 6 hits.
On May 24 Carolina took revenge on Wake Forest
at the Commencement day game of the Baptist insti-
tution by winning 13 to 6. The Wake Forest pitchers
could do nothing with the Tar Heel club and it was
in this game that Shirley hit his homer. N. C. State
was defeated for the third time in Raleigh on her
Alumni Day by a score of 10 to 8 and the next big
game was with Trinity in Durham. Bill Ferebee was
a little wild that day, June 5, but he was effective and
held the Methodist "Champions" to 3 runs while his
mates batted in 5. After the contest was over and
another commencement crowd had been saddened by
the victorious nine, Manager J. T. Barnes challenged
the defeated team to a third game to decide the State
championship, but the Trinity officials refused on the
ground that Carolina's tie game with Guilford gave
them the honor. But Carolina followers would not
listen to it and the followers of both institutions claim
the mythical pennant.
Carolina spoiled the fourth and fifth commence-
ments for other institutions by licking Georgia Tech
in Atlanta on June t) by a score of 4 to 1, and Virginia
on June 11 at Charlottesville 12 to 3. The Tar Heels
simply out-played the Techs altogether and Poyner, a
sophomore, who had never before seen action in a
varsity game, was given credit for the win. lie re-
lieved Ferebee on the mound after the latter had
shown himself unable to control his speed and turned
in a great twirling game for his team. Herman Bry-
son pitched his team to victory at the Virginia game
and got three safe hits to add to his performance.
The last game, the third of the Virginia series, re-
sulted, as told before, in a defeat at Chapel Hill on
Carolina's Alumni Day. The Tar Heel nine had
spoiled six perfectly good Alumni Days at other insti-
tutions and it was rather a bitter pill when the defeat
came. But the series had already been won and after
the heart-break that followed Virginia's brilliant dou-
ble play and the realization that Carolina's ancient
enemy had come out victor the fans were satisfied.
Shirley, Morris, McDonald, Bonner, Carmichael, Star-
ling, Jones, Gibson and several other good men will
be back next year for the fielding positions and it is
thought that Herman Bryson, who has twirled so
many good games for his team will return. Ferebee
will be back also and several promising men from the
Freshman team. — G. W. Lankford, '23.
Now that the Chapel Hill Country Club has put up
its house, the next task is to build a golf course. Some
clearing and plowing have already been done, and the
golfing members are determined to keep plugging
away at the job. The club has already announced the
decision to admit students to the golfing privileges,
and the fees from this source will lie a material aid in
what is necessarily an expensive undertaking. A
number of alumni have expressed interest in the
scheme and provision is to be made for non-resident
memberships. The building of the new dormitories
east of the present campus, the new Cameron Avenue
extension cutting through Battle's Park, and the de-
velopment into a residential colony of the Gimghoul
land out on the left side of the Raleigh road, will
bring the University and the town to the very edge of
the club grounds.

VARSITY OF '03 TROUNCES FACULTY
Playing true to form, the Varsity of '03, known as
Carolina's "Wonder Team," took the faculty into
camp 9 to 2 in a five-inning fray on Emerson Field
Monday afternoon of Class Day.
President Chase threw the first ball to short slop
"Bill" Carr, which Dr. S. A. Nathan, four hundred
pound umpire and local health officer, called a strike.
The visitors started scoring in the first when Wade
Oldham, now a steel manufacturer in Birmingham,
hit a two-bagger and Earle Holt, of Oak Ridge, scored
both of them. Holt died on second when Dean Roys-
ter stopped a hot one from Fred Stem, now of Con-
stantinople.
"Fatty" Giles, of Marion, who had struck out in
the first, went to second base in the third inning when
Claude Currie let a long drive to centerfield gel by
him. Oldham knocked a two-bagger and Giles came
home. Holt went to first on balls and to third when
George Graham, of Charlotte, got a two-bagger. Stem
was safe on first as Holt came home and Will Carr, of
Durham, brought both Graham and Stem home. Old-
ham got another two-bagger, which brought Carr
home and Giles, with a two-bagger, scored Oldham.
Holt managed to get in another run while the running
was good.
The faculty did their only scoring in the third
inning when Hobbs and Fernald got on liases, the
former going to third" on the latter's two-bagger and
Dr. Lawson scoring both of them on a sacrifice. Bag-
ley got to first but was caught trying to steal second
when the entire outfield forces of the visitors were
brought to hem him in.
The visitors started off with "Bull" Thompson, of
Mebane, in the box and he pitched three innings be-
fore they brought in their star pitcher, "Peek" Hart,
of Tarboro, who held the faculty down for the remain-
ing innings by striking them out in one. two. three
order.
The faculty stuck to Prof. A. W. Hohbs to do their
pitching, and save only for the two rallies when the
1903 boys hit him freely, he was able to get the ball
aCrOSS the plate.
Dr. \l. .). Noble, of Raleigh, was behind the plate
for the visitors while Professor Dashiell did the re-
ceiving for the faculty.
Holt played like a veteran on first as well as at the
hat as ilid Dr. Lawson for the faculty.
Donnelly led the hitting for both teams with two
sizzling doubles and a single which scored a run. Old-
ham was second besl batter.
Of the nine men who played for the visitors, there
were live captains in the crowd: Holt, caplain of
1902; Donnelly, of 1903; Thompson, of PHI;"), and
Stem, of 1906. Giles was elected captain of the 1903
team, lint refused to accept as he did not expect to
return to college and Donnelly was named to sue I
him.

CAROLINA TENNIS TRIUMPHS
'niversitv of North Carolina's tennis team,
to the south of North Carolina, in this State, in Vir-
ginia and in Washington City.
Carolina took four out of five matches from Vir-
ginia in the first meet on the schedule, then won all
five matches from Wake Forest. The University of
Richmond was defeated in all six matches, and all the
matches were won from Davidson except one. In the
second Wake Forest meet Carolina made a clean
sweep, and on the trip to the national capital Caro-
lina won five matches from George Washington and
lost two. and took four out of six from Catholic Uni-
versity.
The team which represented Carolina in Atlanta
was composed of Captain Tench Coxe, E. C. Jernigan,
E. B. Smith and G. S. Bruton. Bob Johnston was un-
able to take the trip because of medical studies which
kept him too busy for out-of-town tennis. The team
with Jernigan and Bruton had previously won the
North Carolina championship in doubles at Greens
boro. Jernigan was runner-up in the State singles.
In the Atlanta tournament Jernigan fought his way
to the finals in the singles only to lose to Murray of
Tulane. Then Jernigan and Coxe, and Bruton and
Smith defeated all opponents for southern honors in
the doubles, and the finals saw two Carolina teams
fighting each other for first place. The real feature of
this Southern meet was the come-back staged by Coxe
and Jernigan in their match with Murray and liar
rett, of Tulane, in the semi-finals. Tulane had two
sets and was .">-:!, 40-love on the third. The Carolin-
ians pulled the set out and won the next two sets.
The year's achievement has been accomplished de-
spite a scarcity of courts on which to develop tennis
stars. More courts are being built, however, and
tennis followers are looking for even greater things in
their favorite sport.
with live clips out of the six offered in the Southern
Intercollegiate tennis toumamenl at Atlanta, and
with a record of victory in thirty-five other matches
out of forty-one played, this year completed the most
brilliant season in its history. The victories were won
CAROLINA HAS SUCCESSFUL TRACK SEASON
Ending the track season in the State by a victory
over N. C. State. Davidson and Trinity in the North
Carolina intercollegiate meet at Chapel Hill on May
•*1 and 4. the University closed one of her most success-
ful years on the cinder path. In addition to winning
this intercollegiate meet the track team won first place
in the Stale indoor meet in the early spring by a score
of 111* to 23 by her nearest rival, won second place in
the Carolina-Georgia-Clemson meet, and defeated
Trinity and N. C. State in dual meets.
Carolina was unable to take many men to the South
Atlantic and Southern Conference meets and made
poor showings.
Coach Bob Fetzer firsl began to show the strength
of his team in the annual indoor meet at Durham
when his athletes snowed all competitors under anil
ran up a total of IP! points while Trinity, winner of
second place, only gal 21. Training was continued
then for the big dual and triangular meets which were
io follow. These opened with Clemson and Georgia
at Clemson. The Clemson team look first place with
fifty-nine and one-half points. Carolina second with
thirty-nine and one-half points and Georgia third
with twenty-seven.
A dual meet with Trinity was next held at Durham
and Carolina overwhelmed the Methodists 85 to 41.
Records were good and Abernethy, next year's cap
tain, established ; w record for the javelin by hurl

ing it for 170 feet and eleven inches, an increase of
sixteen feet and eleven inches over the previous
thrust. He was fighting for honors with the javelin
with Crater of N. C. State all year and finally broke
his own record by going to 174 feet and 10 inches in
the State meet.
When Carolina met N. C. State here for their an-
nual dual meet State was expecting victory but met
something else. The result proved another victory
78 to 48 for Carolina and R. L. Ranson, of the famous
line of "Ratty," decided that more new records
needed to be broken and bettered the old pole vault
record by three inches. The previous height was es-
tablished by Spencer, Carolina '21, at 11 feet and 2
inches. Ratty went to 11 feet 5 inches and his record
remains unbroken. At this N. C. State meet the Caro-
lina Freshmen defeated the first year men from West
Raleigh by a score of 82 to 44. Coach Alexander put
out a fine first 3 r ear squad that should help raise Caro-
lina's standard next year.
In the State intercollegiate meet here Carolina took
first place with 68 two-thirds points, N. C. State sec-
ond with 51 one-third, Davidson third with 22 and
Trinity fourth with 11. It was in this meet that
Abernethy made the new record with the javelin.
Records were gootl all round with Captain Sinclair
shining in the dashes, Coxe in the middle distances,
Ranson in the mile, Purser in the two-mile, Woodard
and Yarborough in the hurdles and Ranson in the
pole vault. But other Carolina stars helped to make
things hot for X. C. State. Moore took second place
in the 100-yard dash against heavy odds and Corbitt,
Poindexter anil Abernethy helped in the weights.
The chief residt of the season, in the mind of Coach
Bob Fetzer, seems to be increased interest in track
among athletes and the student body as a whole. The
annual indoor meet is a big drawing card now, and
larger crowds attended the meets all over the State
than ever before. The University band helped to
make things smart here and the throngs got as excited
as at baseball and football games almost. Coach
Fetzer seems to In' pleased with the progress of track
athletics and believes Carolina will soon be put ting
out a team that will be among the best in the South.

sermon that gripped his audience, called upon the
members of the graduating class to press the fight
against disease, ignorance, prejudice, falsehood, and
tyranny.
The texts of his baccalaureate sermon were "And
the Lord breathed into his nostrils the breath of life."
and "'For our free citizenship is in heaven." Dr.
Durham urged the graduates to keep in mind the
origin of their spirit and the kingdom of which they
were free citizens. Every educated man. he declared,
should assume his task in a< rd with the scheme of
this kingdom, should fight to cast nil' the chains of
limitation, and should lie ;i redeemer to mankind.

SCHOOL OF COMMERCE HONORED
An honor in which the University takes the keenest
pride was recently shown the School of Commerce by
its admission into the American Association of Col-
legiate Schools of Business.
This organization is composed of the great Ameri-
can universities that have schools of commerce, with
Harvard, Columbia and California among the organ-
izers and leading members. There are strict limita-
tions upon admission, based upon the number of
school of commerce students, the standing of the
faculty, the curriculum, and the requirements for
graduation.
The School of Commerce in the University of North
Carolina was created four years ago and has had a re-
markable growth. It now has a registration of 400.
The objecl of the national body of which the Uni-
versity now becomes a member is to raise the plane
of business education, so that commerce schools may
have standing to be compared with that of schools of
medicine and law. To that end, certain standards
are erected, to which all members have to conform.
With the four institutions now taken in, there are
only :!() members among all the universities and col-
leges in the United States. Many apply unsuccess-
fully for admission every year.
SUMMER SCHOOL ENROLLS 1315
Registration for the first term of the Summer
School closed June 25 with 1315 students enrolled in
all deparl nts :::; less than Hie total enrolled in
1922. Reservations for the second term of six weeks
beginning duly 28 are already being received, and
preliminary registrations point to a well attended
second half. A significant feature of the present
registration is that between 200 and 250 members of
the student body are registered in the Graduate
School and thai more than 300 regular students of
ihe University are in attendance.
In a meeting following the Virginia game at Char-
lottesville, "Mule" Shirley, first baseman on the vic-
torious University of North Carolina baseball learn,
was unanimously elected captain of the varsity of
1924. This election will probably mean Unit Shirley
will return to the University next year and will not
play professional baseball this summer.

Tin' commencement address of Hon. George Gordon
Battle at the University was a clear-cut history of the
movements preceding the plan of the World Court and
an analysis of the new agency for peaee. together with
a conclusive argument in favor of America's entrance.
He preceded his argument with delightful brief ap-
praisement of a few of the men who were on the stage
— and filled it — in the days when he was a student at
the University. You could almost see Ransom and
Vance and Jarvis and Cox of that generation, and the
younger men like Mclver and Alderman then boys
preparing fur their great task. He pointed out North
Carolina's traditional devotion to its rights, and the
terrible loss in its manhood in the wars in which its
best men had given their lives freely rather than com-
promise their liberty. It was because of its readiness
to make no sacrifice of its rights, he said, that North
Carolina must be deeply interested in a better way to
safeguard them than by resort to force.
The people of North Carolina were glad to welcome
George Gordon Battle back to the State of his birth.
"We have brought him back" said President Chase,
"but it would be better to say he has never been away
in heart and in sympathy." That was evident in his
spirit as well as in his address. Mr. Battle has won
high place in the metropolis as lawyer, as social
lender, and as a politician in the veal sense of the
much abused word. He is interested in all that con-
cerns the welfare of his fellowmen. The competition
in New York is fierce, and no man wins the high place
in state and in church attained by Mr. Battle who has
not demonstrated ability and character. His career
has been gratifying to his friends in his native state,
not so much in the rewards that come to a lawyer with
a large practice in New York, as because Mr. Battle,
while broadening in his outlook, has preserved the old-
time principles which his forebears in North Carolina
illustrated. Among the Southern men in New York
he ranks with the first, and wdiether for social or re-
ligious or political welfare, he is found where the man
of honor and unselfish public service is rendering the,
largest contribution. — News and Observer, dune 14.
T. GILBERT PEARSON ABROAD
T. Gilbert Pearson, '99, president of the National
Association of Audubon Societies sailed for France on
.May 12, in the interest of furthering the organ-
ization and work of the International Committee for
Bird Protection, of which he is the founder. The
committee is composed of representatives elected by
leading scientific and conservation organizations in
the United States, Canada, Australia, Norway, Eng-
land, Holland, Luxembourg and France.
Mr. Pearson is advocating the passage of an inter-
national law which will prohibit the pouring of oil
from ships on the waters of the seas, which results an-
nually in the killing of millions of ducks, loons, gulls
and other water birds throughout the world. He
aided in the passage of a bill by the British Parlia-
ment last -lime which makes it illegal to pour oil into
the territorial waters of the British Isles. He also has
been actively backing a bill of similar import in the
United States which has been pending in Congress
He goes to Europe as representative of the National
Association of Audubon Societies and the American
Ornithologists' Union to address the International
Convention to be held in Paris under the management
of the Societe de Nationale d 'Acclimatacion de
France.
He is hoping that through the work of the Inter-
national Committee it may be possible to start move-
ments that may result in the passage of laws for Hi-
protection of birds in such Latin countries as Spai '
and Italy where bird-life is ruthlessly killed at all
times.
EDGAR TURLINGTON AT LAUSANNE
The Review is indebted to a friend for the follow-
ing quotation from a letter dated April 22 concerning
Edgar Turlington, '11, from his mother.
Ho is at Lausanne ;is legal adviser to the American delega-
tion. He is regarded as an authority on extra-territorial rights
and is at the great Conference for that reason. He left on
just a few hours notice Saturday a week ago (April 14). He
went on the George Washington and was to land at Cherbourg
yesterday or today. Prom there he was to go to Paris and
after a few hours wait there was to go on to Lausanne. He
was crazy to go. They talked of sending him over during the
first conference. The chief of the Near East Division was
anxious for Mr. Hughes to send him then, but it broke Un-
expectedly, and Mr. Hughes did not come to a decision to send
him. He is going into it 'con amine'. I am so delighted that
lie has received this recognition of his ability — in spite of his
being deaf. He will not. return after the conference is
over, but will take at least three months off for travel. He
wants to go to Turkey. A great deal of his work has been in
connection with Turkish affairs and he has become greatly in-
terested in the country. And I think he will go to Persia. A
very gooil friend of his, Mr. A. C, Millspaugh, is financial
manager for the Persian government and I know lie will wish
to go to Teheran.

— I. W. Turrentine received the Ph.D.
degree from Cornell University in 1008.
Leaving Cornell, he became instructor in
physical chemistry in Weslayan Univer-
sity, Middletown, Conn., where he re-
mained until 1911. At that time lie took
up for the Department of Agriculture, at
Washington, the investigation of the for
tilizer resources of the United States,
particularly in potash. In 1917, at the
beginning of the world war, with an ap-
propriation of $250,000, he constructed
at Summerland, Calif., an experimental
and demonstrational plant for the ex-
traction of potash and by-products, such
as iodine, decolorizing carbons and am-
monia, from kelp, and served as director
of the enterprise during the war period.
At the end of that time the plant was
sold to private capitalists for the con
lii I manufacture of these products.
During the period of governmental oper-
ation numerous articles giving the results
of his researches were published in the
scientific and lay press. He is now en-
gaged in the preparation of the final re-
ports on the later stages of these investi-
gations. He is the author of various
pending patents covering industrial pro
cesses and products. In IOljl' he an-
nounced the discovery of ; i medicinal
preparation, obtainable from kelp, of
great value in the treatment of certain
deficiency diseases and as a preventive
and cure of endemic goiter. He is now
engaged in the manufacture and distri-
bution of this material in the hope that
through its instrumentality he may be
able lo bring relief to some of the mil-
lions of goitrous people in the north and
west, where the disease is now causing
so much suffering and distress. Dr. Tur-

Quincy Sharpe Mills, North Carolinian
Alter rising to high success in ten years, this brilliant young editorial
writer of The Evi ning Sitn, of New York, was killed in an attack on the German
lines in July of l'-HS.
Now a rarely appealing memoir of him has been brought out by Putnam's
under the title of "One Who Gave His Life". It tells of Mills' boyhood, his
college days in Chapel Hill, his struggles in New York, and finally his experiences
in the Army. The volume contains letters that give an unusually vivid picture
of the war.
No North Carolinian — especially no alumnus of the University, which
Mills loved so deeply — should be without this book.
"A fitting tribute to the memory of a brave soldier." — New York Times.
"An exhibit in Americanism." — Richmond News-Leader.
"A bright and brilliant story of a young life." — Boston Transcript.
"A glorious book." — San Francisco Bulletin.
"A vivid series of pictures of the personal side of the American soldier's life at the
front." — The Times, London, England.
