Why Spectators Lose

I asked one broker, as we stood
looking at the crowd Of perhaps 100
customers In his place:
"How many Of these will get out
Of the market with q pro6t7'
mime out Of ten will lose" was his
candid reply, because the first big
sag In the market. no matter II only
temporary, will wipe themoout. No
matter how conservative they are at
first, carefully keeping reserve funds
in the bank. they will soon have all
available money up on margin and
then they can't weather even a mo-
mentary reaction. Fred @. Kelly. In

Former Owner of Hill Bakery Here on
Business; Will Return South

w. B. Neal, former proprietor
of the Hill Bakery, came in from
Florida this week, accompanied
by Mrs. Neal. They have busi-
ness affairs in North Carolina
and will remain in the state until
September.
Mr.. Neal had a severe illness
few months ago, but he re-
covered and is looking well.
When he appeared in the
drugstore Wednesday his friends
crowded about him and asked
him about Florida. They found
him still an optimist on the sit
uation there.
"Oh, yes, there's been a bad
slump" he said, 'but Florida
will come back. People who did
their buying with any prudence
at all are not going to suffer.
I'm holding some river-front
land got some time ago, in
Fort Lauderdale, and am conf
dent of it's value. People down
there are as cheerful a lot as
you ever saw. They don't seem
to trouble themselves about the
present. When anybody men
tions the slump they say: We'll,

\ got a note from one of my
subscribers in the island of Cey-
lon the other day: w. P. Jacocks,
University alumnus and one
time football star. He is one of
the disease-fghting experts of
the international Health Board.
His letterhead bears the formi-
dable inscription, "Anchylosto-
miasis Campaigns" / have ask
ed DIR. MacNider what sort of
an ailment anchylostomiasis is,
and he says it is caused by the
parasite called the anchylostoma
duodenale. So of course now l
understand it perfectly.
1t is strange what a difference
there is between the face-to-face
voice and the telephone voice.
For example: our mayor, w. S.
Robertson, is one of the most
genial and friendly of men
when you meet him on the street
or in his office; but whenever
he answers me on the telephone

he is just about to bite the trans
mitter in two.

Kike Kyser has been elected
University cheer leader for next

cellent choice. Cheer leading
is really a vaudeville act, and
Mr.. Kyser is a vaudevillian of
unusual gifts. These gifts he
has displayed repeatedly IN

large audiences, and so we know
what we have a right to expect
in the way of entertainment.

New Method for Control of
Athletics at the University

flocking in today for their class
reunions. 9
In the book entitled "Ath-
letics in the University of North
Carolina" which was sent out
Wednesday by Alumni Secretary
Grant to the hundreds of the
alumni entitled to wear the N.
c. monogram, the proposed con-
Stitution of the Athletic Council
is given in full.
The alumni members of the
Council are to be nominated by
the executive committee of the
Alumni Association and elected
at the first regular meeting of
the Association after the adop-
tion of the constitution. Of the
three undergraduate members
one shall be a member of the
Monogram club chosen by that
club, one the president of the
Athletic Association, and one the
president of the student body.
The faculty members are to be
appointed by the President of
the University.
Regular meetings of the Coun-
Gil are to be held once a month,
and special meetings may be
called.
Coaching, schedules, financing
everything to do with athletic
policy and the conduct of ath-
letics-shall be under the juris-
diction of the Council.

Interior Of Building Will be Complete
iy Reconstructed; Phi Hall in Top

1t is practically certain now
that the University will recon-
struct the New East building
for the department of geology.
For several years new quar-
ters for geology have been on
the building schedule, but for
one reason or another the prof.
ect has been postponed. Once
it was showed aside by the wom-
ans building-and last year by
the curtailment that accompani-
ed the economy wave in Raleigh.
AS in the case of the South,
the Old East, and the Old West,
when the reconstruction of the
New East is done the outside
walls will be about all that will
be left of the old structure. The
interior will be completely de-
molished to make way for a new
layout of offices, recitation
rooms, and laboratories.
The Phi Society, now on the
third floor, will have a large
chamber on the fourth floor, ca
pable of seating 200 men. This
will be better meeting place
than the society now has, and a
much safer place for its valu-
able collection of portraits.
The cost Of the reconstruction
is estimated at $4,000.

At a meeting this week the
faculty approved a new plan
for the control of athletics at
the University.
Power over all sports is vest
ed in the Athletic Council, COM
posed of three members of the
faculty, three undergraduates,
and three alumni. In addition,
the athletic director and the
graduate manager of athletics
are to be members ex officio, so
that the entire membership of
the Council will be eleven.
Since the Southern Confer
ence, of which the University is
a member, requires full faculty
responsibility in athletics, the
proposed constitution of the
Athletic Council provides that
the faculty members, in confer
ence with the President of the
University, shall have full veto
power over all acts of the Coun-
ell. Moreover, the faculty men,
bers of the Council shall consti-
tute a committee to determine
the eligibility of athletes under
the regulations of the faculty.
The plan will come up for con-
sideration at the, meeting of the
Alumni Association tomorrow
Saturday, and it will undoubt-
edly be discussed with much in
terest, in advance of that gath
ering, by the alumni who come

of New York, has made a dona-
tion of $4,000 for the Chapel

which the University is expected
to take over the cost. Most of
the fund goes for teachers sal
aries. These teachers will be
members of the University fac
ulty in the school of education.
The salary allowance will make
possible the engagement of high
~ cdpaOle men.
A representative of the Gener-
al Education Board was in Chap
ell Hill recently and spent sew
eral hours examining the
physical accommodations, the
curriculum, and the methods of
the school.
What we would like to do"
he said. lis to make this model
public school, embodying the
best methods of primary and
secondary education"

ton, will be worked out in con-
ferences between the Chapel Hill
school board and a University

Night Work on Castle
Gimghouls Busy Getting New Home
Ready for Commencement

In order to get their new Hip
pol Castle, out at Piney Prospect,
ready for commencement, the
GimghOuls have a force of men
working this week by night as
well as by day. The laying of
the floor is in progress, and the
setting of the last stones in the
fire-places, and the installation
of the electric lights.
The building committee in
charge had a piece of good luck
in getting some fine fiat stones
from HillsbOro. Aided in their
quest by A. H. Graham, they
purchased part of a truck load
at a quarry, and then, from the
yard of an old resident, they got
about half a dozen slabs that
were quarried a century ago.
These are used for hearths.
1t is thought that a roadway
will be built from the present
road in time to give automo-
biles access to the entrance of
the castle during. commence
ment.
There will be an informal
gathering Sunday afternoon,
and a dance is scheduled for
Thursday evening of next week.

fOhe Dark Village

Chapel Hill was plunged into
darkness all of a sudden Monday
evening when the Southern
Power Company's transmission
line broke down few miles to
the north. From the University
dormitories, where the students
were studying for their final
examinations, came a roar that
sounded like a thousand devils
let loose. The Pickwick had to
call off its widely advertised
show, THE Unknown Soldier" :"
1t was a moonleSs, starless night,
and people CROPPED along the
streets, unable to see a foot a.
head.
But the high school seniors
who were giving their comedy,
Mn Bob" were equal to the
emergency. They got batteries
and Ford headlights from Bruce
Strowd's garage and rugged
these up as footlights. On the
stage itself candles were brought
into use. There was an eighty
tive-dollar audience and the play
was big success.
Presently candles began to ap-
pear in stores and homes. From
the streets drugStores present
ed a weird spectacle, as the soda
clerks. in a ghostly dimness,
mixed drinks for the crowd
which flocked across from the
Pickwick's gloomy portal.
AS soon as the students re-
covered from their surprise they
began to make merry over the
accident. Motoring through the
campus one saw, cast forth from
the dormitory windows, long
ribbons of flaming tissue paper.
The shouting, not so continuous
as at first and now and then re-
lieved by bits of song, kept up.
1t was indeed contorted idea
of fun that led some stupid fel-
low to set fire to the little work
shack between the new dormi-
tories and the tennis courts. A
number of trees were badly

An IN. c." Book
History Of University Athletics Is
sued from Alumni Office

A book about the history Of
athletics in the University was
issued from the Central Alumni
Office this week. On its white
cover is a blue square, and on
this square, in white, the letters
N. C.. in the form of the mono
gram awarded to athletes.
The volume contains an ac-
count of the development Of
every sport in the University,
from the time of the introduc-
tion to the. present. Then, for
every year, there is list of the
men ON the various teams, with
a record of the scores in inter
collegiate games.
Following these statistics
comes the proposed plan of or
ganization of the new Athletic
Council, and after that an article
about the Monogram Club. This
club, composed of alumni and un-
dergraduates who have won the
right to wear the N. G. mono
gram, is to have an out-of-door
supper on the campus tomorrow
evening.

ALUMNI MOVE TO
BUILD A STADIUM
Project Launched by Durham
Committee; Fine Natural
Site Is Available
$4,000 SEATS ARE WANTED

At the call of a group of Car
olina men who live in Durham,
: a meeting will be held today
friday, in the Washington
Duke HOTEL to discuss plans for
the erection of a big new sta
adium here at the University of
North Carolina. All alumni are
invited to attend.
The movement was launched
at a gathering of Durham alum
nj last week, and a committee
was appointed to work out "a
financing plan. Robert Lassiter
of Charlotte is chairman, and
the other members of this tenn
porary committee are DR.. Foy
Robertson (who acts as secre-
tary), X. p. Lewis, l.. P. Nc
Lendon, J. l.. Morehead, and
Watts Hill.
A\stadium to seat $4,000 peo-
pie is a tentative proposal. An
excellent natural site for such
a structure has been found in a
ravine south of the campus. The
lay of the land is such that the
concrete seats can be laid on
slopes around the arena, which
means a much smaller cost than
would be required for masonry
built up from level ground.
The idea of the group which
has launched the project is that
University alumni everywhere
should join in the financing.
Probably an arrangement will
be made to reserve seats, for a
long period of years, for each
contributor to the stadium fund.
"A few of us in Durham got
together just to start the move
ment," said DR.. Foy Robertson
yesterday, "but Of course the
whole body of Carolina must
take hold of it and push it
through. Everybody realizes
the pressing need of a modern
stadium in Chapel Hill. Thous-
ands of alumni are anxious to
have good accommodations for
the big games, but what we have
to do now is to translate their
enthusiasm into definite action.
/ hope everybody who possibly
can will attend the meeting on
Friday, and then the thing can
be further discussed the next
day, Saturday, when a great
number of alumni will be at
tending commencement in Chap
el Hill"
