Owners, Managers.

Robert F, Freer, manager Of the
Southern Building and president of

Building Owners and Managers;
Robert L. McKeever. past president,
and Charles H. Ruth, retiring Sec
rotary and treasurer, returned Fri

sociation of Building Owners and
Managers.
Mr.. Freer was appointed to assist
in preparation Of plans for the
seventeenth annual convention Of
the national association, which Is to
be held next June at Colorado
Springs.
Among the important subjects
taken up at the Chicago session
was one to cooperate with Govern
ment officials to secure a uniform
contract law, by which 1t is esti-
mated the cost Of contract work
with the Government will be re.
duced 20 per cent; the extension of
the building planning service by
which expert consulting services
are given the owners and archi.
tects OF new buildings; the promo
ton of a tax participating clause
in leases which will give the tenant
the benefit Of reductions through
lowering taxes or, in the event of
increased, taxes, make the tenant
realize the direct interest he has
in the affairs Of Government and
the expenditures of Government
bodies.
Mr.. Freer will outline to mem.
bers Of the local association the
points brought out. at the Chicago
sessions, the development of the
relatively new position Of build.
ing manager and how cooperative
effort is putting a new efficiency
into the management and the con.

Chapel Hill on DetOur

While a section of road from
Durham to Hillsboro is being
hard-surfaced, traffic on the
Central Highway is being de-
toured through Chapel Hill. The
big busses that ply between Ra-
leigh and Greensboro are now
passing through the town. How
ever, they do not take on pass
engerS here because their license
does not permit them to do busi-
ness except on their regular
route. 1t is expected that the
construction job between Dur
ham and Hillsboro will be done
within thirty days, and it would
hardly pay the bus concerns to
.ake out a new license to handle
traffic from Chapel Hill for that
short period.

to his son Clarence, has bought
a l3-acre farm out on the Mount
Carmel road, about half a mile
beyond Williams Chapel, and
VIII move there in the next two
or three weeks. He sold his
home at the west end of McCau-

and Mr.. Robertson has sold it to
}. W. Huskey. Il don't expect
to do much real farming" says
Mr.. Wills, "but will devote my
time mostly to raising chickens
and hogs. There is an out-build-
ing, once used as kitchen,
which I'll use as an incubator
house, and a new kitchen will be
built onto the main house. As
for crops, I'll probably not try
to raise much except some truck
for the family and feed for the
hogs and Chickens"

Colonel Visits Room
Army Officer Finds His Old Quarters
Taken by Women

Colonel Simmons of the Uni
ted States Army, who was here
in the University from 1886 to
1888, appeared at the Old East
Building Tuesday and asked to
see the room he used to live in.
Escorted to it by the matron,
Mrs. Harvey Boney, who is in
charge during Summer School,
he found powder puffs on the
bureau, high-heeled slippers
peeping out from under t. the bed,
the lace fringes of dainty gar
ments visible through the crack
of the closet door.
Rather different from the
room as l knew it," said the Col
onel thoughtfully. Then, look
ing around in rather dazed fash
ion, he asked: where's the fire
placer" Of course there wasn't
any, since this crude method of
heating has been supplanted by
radiators.
He had his 13-year-old son
with him. From the Old East
Mrs. Boney took them on to the
third floor of the New East to
see the Phi Society hall. The
first door they tried was locked,
and they came back downstairs
and climbed up at the other end
of the building. Here they had
better luck and got in. The COL
onel circled the big room and
looked at the portraits he used
to know so we'll when he was a
student. In the course of their
hour together he told Miss Bo-
ney many anecdotes of his COL
lege life.

July 4th Gayety
First a March, Then Stunts in Mem.
Orial Hall

With a dance in the Gymna-
sium tonight as a sort of eye
opener, the Summer School will
start in on it's big Fourth of Ju-
ly celebration tomorrow (Fri-
day. at half past nine o'clock.
AS the band plays, the throng
will gather on the square in
front of the Alumni Building.
Following the established prac-
tice, the students will form in
groups according to their col
leges, and their precedence in
the march to Memorial Hall will
be determined by the age of the
institutions. Queens College,
Charlotte, comes first, having
been founded in It'll, Salem
next (1772), and the Universe
ty third (1789).
BY a vote of the student body
Miss Olivia Abernethy of Hick-
ory, has been chosen, as the most
beautiful brunette, to represent
Columbia, and Miss Esther
Hunter, as the most beautiful
blonde, to represent Carolina.
They will walk on each side of
Uncle Sam, portrayed by R. H.
Hardee.
AT a signal from Grand Mar
shall A. H. Patterson the march
will begin, the route being along
the north of the square and o.
round between the Library and
the Pharmacy building.
III memorial Hall, after Rev.
W. S. Long has pronounced the
invocation, M. C. S. Noble will
take charge of the exercises.
There will not be speechmaking,
but, instead, a series of stunts.
The nature of these is shrouded
In mystery. 1t is known, how
ever, that the Flora Macdonald
girls will give a playIet called
Lima Beans" and that the
South Carolinians' contribution
Will be a skit, when South Car
DINA Meets North Carolina"
The program includes num-
ber of songs.
