Negroes Tried and Released

The three young negro men,
William and Walter Norwood
and Isaac Geer, who were arrest.
ed recently on charges of enter
ing a room in one of the women's
dormitories, have been tried in
local court here and released
It is definitely known that un-
known persons broke into a first
floor room in Ruffin dormitory
one night before summer school
closed and gave the inmates a
scare, but there was insufficient
evidence to convict the three
suspects in question; and all
three were pronounced not
guilty by the local court presid-
ed over by Mayor Robertson.

u. N. C. To Meet Oxford
English Debaters Will Come Here
This Fall for First Time

The University of North Car
olina will meet Oxford Univer-
sity in debate here this fall for
the first time in history, it was
announced this week by S. G.
Chappell, secretary of the Uni
versity debate council, who re-
Gently completed arrangements
for the meet with Oxford.
The Oxford team will sail
from England aboard the Aqui-
tania on September 10Th, and
will begin a tour of the eastern
part of the United States. The
date of the teams arrival in
Chapel Hill has not yet been
definitely announced.
The query to be debated is the
international court of justice.
The debate will be conducted
under the Oxford union plan
whereby each team has repre-
sentatives on both sides of the
question; and the audience will
render the verdict. The Ok
ford team will bring one mega
tive and two affirmative speak
ers, and the University of North
Carolina will have a like repre-
sentation.

Knight To Denmark
Goes Abroad on Kenan Foundation;
To Study Foreign Schools

E. w. Knight, of the Univer-
sity School of Education, is
leaving about the middle of
September for several months in
Europe. He goes on leave of
absence granted by the board Of
trustees on the Kenan Founda-
tion and also as fellow of the
National Social Science Research
Council. The object of his trip
is to study the schools of Eu-
rope, especially those of Den
mark, Norway, and Sweden, and
perhaps Finland. He will also
investigate the work of training
teachers in Germany and France.
He will be absent from the uni
versity during the academic
year 1925-26.
The Scandinavian countries
have attracted students from
this country now for several
years. They have gone to
study the cooperative enter
prises of Denmark, as E. C.
Branson did a year or two ago,
and some students have in re-
cent years studied the schools of
these countries. Of particular
interest to Mr.. Knight is the So
called folk high schools of Den
mark, which have been credited
with having much to do with the
prosperity and wholesomeness
of rural life in that country. He
will make a first-hand study of
the work of this unique institu-
ton, which has spread from Den
mark into the other Scandina-
Wan countries. His particular
interest is to see how well, if at
all, this type of school could be
adapted to the needs of rural
conditions in the United States,
especially in the South.
Mr.. Knight sails from New
York, going first to England,
then across to Copenhagen,
where his headquarters will be
for several months.

LOCAL DAIRYMEN
RATED BY NATHAN
Health Officer Announces New
System; Designed to Insure
Pure Milk Supply
DAIRYMEN MUST COMPLY

On account of the change
from the former system of
milk grading to the new system
under the North Carolina State
Board of Health Standard Milk
Code, it is felt that some brief
explanation should be made in
connection with the announce
ment to the public through the
press of the town, otherwise the
mere announcement of the
grades of milk might not convey
a very definite idea of the plan
or scheme of the grading. The
State Standard Milk ordinance
is different in many essential
points from the former dairy
regulations and makes a distinct
advanced step in milk legisla-
tion. The State Board of Health
of North Carolina in presenting
the Standard Ordinance to the
different towns and cities Of the
State, does not make the claim
that it is a perfect" ordinance,
but in the field of milk control
it comes very near filling these
requirements, and it's adoption
was urged for the sake Of unifor-
nifty and Standardization of
milk control work.
More than twenty municipal
tiles of the State have adopted
the ordinance as presented, and
still other cities are considering
it's adoption. Locally, we have
been able to change from the
old to the new without in any
manner interfering with the
normal milk supply, and the i'm
provements and changes neces-
sary have been brought about
gradually. The initial grading
period was increased from three
to four months in order to per-
nit the largest possible num-
ber to make the grade they were
striving for, and while the show
ing made is very satisfactory it
is regretted that all the milk
producers did not make grade
"a" for the first announcement.
During the first grading Pc
riod it was necessary to grade
both the dairy farms and the
milk from the dairy farms in
accordance with the provisions
of the code which fixes very
definite standards for the diff

Law Students Score
Fine Showing Made by U. N. C. Law
Students; 87.5 Percent Pass

Students from the University
of North Carolina law school
made a brilliant record in the
August supreme court bar ex-
aminations held last week.
Twenty-four candidates from
the university, representing the
regular term and the summer
school, were successful. The
three who failed to pass had not
completed their work in the Uni
versity law school. This means
that 87.5 percent of the appli-
cants from the University were
successful. This record marks
the continuation of the splendid
showing made by the University
law students during the past
few years. Last year 80 of the
36 Carolina students who took
the examination passed.
The University law school last
year became a member of the
association of American law
schools, with a class A rating,
requiring two years college work
for entrance and three years of
law work for a degree.

A Campus That is Deserted

A sort of holy calm has de-
scended over the University
campus since the close of sum-
mer school. The interval be-
tween the close of the summer
term and the opening of the Fall
quarter is the dullest time of
the year in Chapel Hill. Many
of the faculty members have
taken advantage of the two
weeks interval. and are away on
vacations. Here and there may
be seen a student, perhaps en-
ployed here until the opening of
school, or merely hanging a.
round because the campus has
a grip upon his affections that
is stronger than home. But the
lull is brief. Two weeks hence,
and upwards of two thousand
students will make of Chapel
Hill a place that is truly cosmo-
politan.

Falling Tree Gives Scare

The people living near Vernon
Howell were given a scare early
last Saturday morning, when a
large oak tree on his place fell
with a great crash. The noise
came about one a. m., and it was
thought at first that it was an
earthquake shock. Daylight re-
vealed that the big tree had
blown over, disclosing the roots
which were torn up. No damage
resulted, as the oak fell in a va
cant space.

Colleges Are Crowded
University to Turn Away None; Over
1000 Refused Elsewhere

The University of North Car
olina is practically the only
institution of higher learning in
the State that will not turn away
applicants for admission this
fall on account of lack of room.
This fact was disclosed by a re-
cent survey of II institutions,
both large and small, by the
Greensboro Daily News.
Over 1000 young men and wo-
men will be refused admission in
IL of the States leading colleges
this fall, because of inadequate
dormitory space. The enroll
ment will run well over the
10000 mark in these twelve in
stitutions. Of this number,
fully $500 will be entering col
lege for the first time. These
figures do not represent summer
school enrollments.
The University of North Car
olina will have the largest en-
rollment, running over 2,4OO.
No students will be turned a.
way because of lack of room,
Registrar T. j. Wilson states.
The dormitories will all be filled,
but it is always possible for
students to secure rooms some
where near the campus.
N. C. C. w., at Greensboro,
will have the next largest en-
rollment. 1t has room for only
1850 students, and already
2,280 applications have been re-
ceived. At Duke University,
over 200 women applicants have
been turned away because of
lack of dormitory space. While
no students have been refused
admission there, the situation at
State College is almost equally
as serious-lack of dormitory
accommodations. Between 500
and 600 students will be turned
away from East Carolina Teach
ers' College at Greenville, for a
similar reason. Wake Forest
College will be forced to refuse
admission to 200 students. Da-
wilson College will send away
225 students.
Similar conditions prevail in
many other of the States lead
ing colleges. In some cases, the
students are turned away be-
cause of lack of preparation, but
in most cases it is on account of
the lack of dormitory accommo-
dations for the ever-increasing
number who want to enter COL
lege.

HILLSBORO SCHOOLS
WILL OPEN SEPT. 5
Enrolment To Be 1000; Many
Improvements Have Been
Made In Equipment
EXPECT SUCCESSFUL YEAR

The Hillsboro schools will
open September 8, with an en-
rollment of about one thousand
pupils. The high school will
have two hundred students,
twenty-five more than last year.
Three years ago the two white
schools had only eight teachers
now there are twenty-five
white teachers employed. The
high school will have eight
teachers this year. This rapid
increase in the number of teach
ers is another result of consoli-
dation. The pew school build
ing with it's nineteen class
rooms has been in use only
three years.
The grounds at the high
school have been graded during
the vacation, providing ample
space for all outdoor athletics.
The school has heretofore oeen
forced to use the West End Park
for both football and baseball
which was inconvenient. The
pupils have been enthusiastic all
summer about the fine new ath-
letic field and what they expect
to accomplish in football this
fall.
Many other improvements
have been made in the high
school department. One addi-
tional teacher has been employ
ed. Complete equipment for
laboratory work in physics, BIZ
Ology and general science has
been installed, and a lecture
room has been arranged in con-
nection with the laboratory.
The home economics department
has been extended to include the
sixth and seventh grades, and
more equipment has been added.
A total of more than two hun
dred volumes will be added to
the high school library.
The West End school has been
painted, which adds much to it's
appearance, and fire escapes
have also been added. This
school, with Mrs. Gary. Lloyd as
principal, will enroll about one
hundred and twenty-five pupils
in the first and second grades.
Four trucks will again be oper-
ated, bringing high school pupils
from Efland, Murphey, Little
River and Caldwell. Other
