the funeral AS we look back over
our boyhood days we can see Billie

was claiming a victim, and see Mrs.
Greer with her basket of pro-
visions going to the home of the
needy. We can also see the daugh-
ter Mrs. Sheridan who has put more
stars in her crown by following in
their footsteps in that line, than
some folks have by praying loud
and fiuently. Rev. j. A. Goddard

Basketball Champions
Carolina Team Again Wins the Title
in Atlanta Tournament

The furious ringing of the col
lege bell, about eleven o'clock
Tuesday night, announced to
the village that once more the
University basketball team had
won the Southern championship
in basketball. Carolina captured
the title four years out of the
five years in which it has COM
peted.
The other team in the finals at
Atlanta was that. of the Missis-
sippi A. and M. College. The
score was 38 to %. Before meet
ing the "Aggies," Carolina had
vanquished Clemson and the uni
versities of Mississippi and Vir-
ginia.
A telegraphic play-by-play re-
port came to Memorial Hall, and
the closeness of the contest kept
the crowd in a high state of ex-
citement. When the game was
over the students, led by the
band, paraded through the cam
pus and the town, shouting and
singing.
Cobb, Dodderer, Newcomb,
Hackney, and Devin composed
the quintet in the final game.
There were no substitutions.

'Tardies" Discussed

The main feature of the
March meeting Of the Parent
Teachers Association was a dis
cussion of the number of tardies
that occur in the school and of
ways and means to eliminate
them. The number of tardies in
the high school during the past
month was 319; of these 1874
were checked against town chill
dren. Sixty tardies occurred in
the 9th grade, 80 in the 9Th, %
in the 10th, and 8 in the 18th.
Parents are asked to notice on
the monthly reports, how many
times their children have been
tardy and to cooperate with the
teachers in improving this con-
dition. The subject will be dis
cussed again at the associations
next meeting.

TOWN WILL HELP
SUPPORT NURSE
Aldermen Vote to Pay Part
of Salary in Interest
of Public Health
SCHOOL WILL COOPERATE

At their meeting Monday
night the board of aldermen vOt-
ed to contribute $3.50 a month
to the support of the negro
nurse. The appropriation was
conditioned upon the raising, by
the negroes Of the village, of
last years deficit of $125 in the
amount they had agreed to con-
tribute to the annual salary of
the nurse.
The meeting was attended by
about a dozen Chapel Hill women
active in community affairs, and
they gave the board assurance
that the negroes of the village
would contribute $25 a month,
and the Red Cross and the Tu-
berculosis Seal Fund $3.50 a
month, toward the cost of main
tanning the nurse. All the mon
ey is to be turned into the town
treasury and is to be paid by
the town to the nurse. She will
work under the direction of the
hoolAL okF;oo..
In making the motion for the
appropriation, Alderman r. D.
W.. Connor emphasized the fact
that the public health work a
mong the negroes benefited not
only them but also the entire
community. The white people
are vitality concerned because
they are served by negro cooks,
nurses, and laundrywomen.
A spirited discussion centered
about the question as to the ex-
tent of the negro schools coop
Grafton with the nurse. Whether
or not there has been cooperation
in the past, the white members
of the school committee, Messrs.
Noble, Mcintosh. and Toy, say
that there will surely be in the
future.
Among the women who came
to the aldermen's meeting were
Mrs. Conner, Mrs. Toy, Mrs. Mac
Rae, Mrs. Carter, Mrs. J. E.
Lear, Mrs. Leavitt, Mrs. Paulsen,
Mrs. Cobb, Mrs. Ferson, and
Miss Metcalf.
DIR. S. A. Nathan, the health
officer, made report in which
he said that the nurse had done
excellent work among the ne
groes and that the leading citi-
zens of the race in Chapel Hill
had high opinion of her ability
and faithfulness.

Another Mad Dog
Mrs. Wilkes Former Pet Found to
Have Had Rabies

The head of another Chapel
Hill dog has been sent to the
state bureau of hygiene in Ra-
leigh, and the official report
comes back that the dog had ra-
bieS.
1t was Mrs. E. C. Wilkes pet
until last week. Then she gave
it to Mrs. Bob Herndon on Nc
Cauley street. Sunday Mrs.
Herndon, becoming suspicious of
its behavior, sent for the police,
and the police shot it. DR.. Ma
than, informed of the incident,
sent the head to Raleigh.
After the report came in from
the state bureau, the Pasteur
treatment was Immediately ad-
ministered to the three Wilkie
children and will be continued
for 81 days.
Until the 10th, nine days be-
fore the dog was killed, it had
been going to the scrool yard
and the school children had been
playing with it.

the fine distinctions, made by OBJ
servers of Lent, between what is
allowable in the way of amuse-
ment and what is not. One ma
tron active in social affairs ex-
plains to me that two tables of
bridge do not constitute a real
party" and so are a proper pas
time in the season of sacrifice.
Another, more strict, considers
more than one table an infrac-
tion. And I am told that an en-
tertainment at the Country Club
is proper enough, between Ash
Wednesday and Easter, and that
"stunts" may be performed, but
that there should be no dancing
or card-playing. All of which is
rather bewildering. Oughtn't
there to be a fixed code to let the
socially active know just how far
they may go in merry-making?
George Gordon Battle of New
York was here Saturday, to at
tend the reunion banquet of the
Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity. Mr..
Battle has been for many years
an intimate friend of AL Smith,

Smith did not want to run for
President but was anxious to re-
tire to private life and earn
some money. The Governor has
a large family and is not at all

MUSICIANS PLAN
FOR ASYMPHONY
University Orchestra Will Be
Expanded into Larger
Organization
MUCH TALENT AVAILABLE

A movement is under way for
the establishment Of a Chapel
Hill Community Symphony.
This is to be an outgrOwth of
the present University orches-
ira, which is formed Of about
twenty students and a dozen
citizens of the village.
Among those who are particu-
larly interested in the project
and are working to carry it
through are Paul j. Weaver,
Mrs. Chase, T. Smith McCorkle,
Mrs. McCorkle, Eric thinner
man, H. D. Carter, Mrs. A. M.
Jordan, and H. R. Totten.
'The word symphony does not
longer imply a hundred or so
musicians" said Mr.. McCorkle
yesterday. "Some of the best
orchestras are little SYM
phonys', with a membership of
around thirty, and we believe
there is a good opportunity here
in Chapel Hill for the formation
of such a group.
'The University orchestra
has shown the possibility of
something still better. If we
could interest the capable musi-
clans of Chapel Hill who play
orchestra instruments, we could
easily increase our membership
to about fifty.
1--WE could play a standard
symphony and overtures and dc
them well. 1t is manifestly i'm
possible for outside symphonys
to be brought here because of the
expense involved. But, regard.
less of the ever-existing impress
sion that what we have at home
can't be worth while, it is a fact
that we could give to the stu
dents and to the townspeople the
orchestra literature and present
it in such style that it would be
musically interesting and educa-
tiOnal.
Furthermore, such an organi-
zation would probably attain
more or less prominence for the
town throughout the state. We
would probably never plan any
tours, because it would probably
be inconvenient for some of the
members. But it is not un.
reasonable to suppose that we
might have people from other
towns come in to hear such an
organization"
