PAVED
HIGHWAY OUT TO
CARRBORO SCHOOL
Commission Authorizes Laying
of Concrete Westward
from Chapel Hill
NEW ROUTE ESTABLISHED

The State Highway Commits
sion has authorized the extern
sion of the pavement out through
Carrboro to the Carrboro school.
A new route has been estab-
lished. Instead of turning
sharply to the right at the end
of Franklin street and then a.
gain to the left along Rosemary
street, the road will cut diagon-
ally through the block where the
negro Methodist church stands
and come into Rosemary street
several hundred feet to the
west of the Chapel Hill-Carr-
boro line. After crossing the
railway track it will take the
left fork instead of the right;
run along in front of the stores;
veer to the right after passing
the Baptist church, and cut
through what is now private
property to join the present
highway route at the corner by
the school.
The surface will be concrete,
18 feet wide. This is the same
type of pavement which enters
Chapel Hill from Durham on the
east and from Pittsboro on the
south.
A few weeks ago it was an
nounced that the state would
join with the town in paving
Franklin street westward from
Strowd's garage, but it did not
become known then that the
hard surface would go on
through Carrboro.
This stretch is part of the
state highway No. Ia, which
leads northward to Hillsboro and
on to Yanceyville and Danville.
At a meeting in Raleigh late last
month the Highway Commits
sion voted to take over the Or
ange-Alamance county road

Chapel Hill Chaf

Nearly everybody in Chapel
Hill is delighted at the prospect
of a new stadium, but the most
enthusiastic advocate of this
particular improvement whom l
have happened to see was a Wis
itor introduced to me on the
street the other day. He was an
official representative of the
National Portland Cement As
sociation.
.
The morning I left Chapel
Hill on my recent travels I got a
genuine thrill from the News
and Observer. On the starboard
side of the editorial, page saw
the heading: "Where Is North
Carolina in Public Education?,
by Edgar w. Knight" The
story started off as follows: "A
long time ago I stole SIS. want
ed to return the money but I
was afraid suspicion would fall
on me if I sent it by mail"
l said to myself: "This is go
ing to be hot stuffed Knight
mailed out the manuscript of
his Confessions instead of his
essay on high school curricula,
teacher-training, and what-not. I"
But I discovered in a moment
there had been a mix-up in the
newspaper office; they had got

der Mr.. Knights headlines.

Gets Wrong Night-Gear
Parker Daggett Victim of Gross De-
ceptiOn on Trip North

When Parker H. Daggett, pro-
fessor of electrical engineering
in the University, reached Dur
ham last Friday on his way to
Philadelphia he found that he
had left his night-clothes at
home. So he walked into a shop
and asked for a suit of pajamas.
He stuffed into his suitcase
the package containing his pur-
chase and did not open it until
he had climbed into his Pullman
berth in Greensboro three hours
later. Then he learned that he
had not got pajamas at all, but,
instead, a capacious nightshirt.
He had to make out the best he
could with this unfamiliar and
distasteful garment.
Except for this incident, his
journey was unexciting. AS
president of the National Coun-
Gil of State Boards of Engineer
ing Examiners he called the con-
vention to order Monday morn
ing and presided over the ses-
sions that day and Tuesday. The

Sandy Justice Injured
In an Automobile Collision after the
Davidson Game

Sandy Justice was severely in
jured in an automobile accident
while returning from the Caro-
ina-Davidson football game last
Saturday. The car in which he
and three or four other stu
dents were riding collided near
Charlotte with a car occupied by
several women.
He was taken in an unconsci-
Gus condition to a hospital in
Charlotte and for a while it was
feared that his hip was broken.
But this turned out not to be so.
The latest bulletin says he is i'm
proving steadily.
When Sandy left Chapel Hill
his mother handed him a ten
dollar bill and told him he would
have to make the trip on that
amount or stay at home. When
he regained consciousness in the
hospital and saw his mother
with him he said: "'T've got four
dollars left, but I'm afraid it
won't cover the cost"

HOUSE BOUGHT BY
LOGANS CONTAINS
MANY OLDPAPERS
Among Them Is a Copy Of the
Weekly Ledger Of the
18th of May, 1873
GIVES NEWS OF VILLAGE

Mrs. George B. Logan started
out from home the other day
to take her daughter Henrietta
to a music lesson. When she
reached the intersection of Nc
Cauley and Patterson streets
she came upon an auctioneer Of
fering for sale a house occupied
by Mrs. Annie Herndon on the
southwest corner. She Joined
the crowd, entered into the bid
ding, and in a few minutes found
herself the purchaser. This is
the most suddenly conceived and
most promptly executed finan-
cial transaction that Chapel Hill
has known for many a day.
; Upon going into the house to
take possession, she saw a mass
of old documents-letters, pam
phlets, and newspapers. They
had been left to Mrs. Herndon
by her father, j. r. Hutchins,
known in the village and the sur
rounding region as Captain
Hutchins.
II don't want all these
things" said Mrs. Herndon to
the new owner of the place. 'Do
you think anybody would have
any use for them?"
Mrs. Logan suggested that
perhaps the University Library
might be interested in the docu-
ments; so some, which looked
as though they might be valu-
able, were taken to Miss Mary
Thornton, who is in charge of
the North Carolina Collection.
Others were destroyed.
One of the newspapers which
Mrs. Logan saved was a copy
of the Weekly Ledger of May
18, 1878. This journal had been
launched a few weeks before
that date-toward the end of
the third year after the reopen
ing of the University in 1875.

This Was the Climax of Celebration
of Cleanup Week

The climax of the celebration
of cleanup week was a parade
of about a hundred children
down the main street of the viii
lage. They were clad in fantas-
tic costumes and were armed
with brooms, mops, and other
articles emblematic of cleanli-
ness.
The first prize went to Alice
Logan, four years old, who ap-
peared as a garbage pail. The
bottom of the pail had been re-
moved to give free play to her
legs and feet, and her head came
up through a hole in the top.
Her sister Henrietta and Anna
Schmidt walked beside her and
held the handles. On the pail
was painted a sign which said
"Keep my top on"
Louise Foister, as a Dutch
cleanser, won the second prize,
and Theo Fields, as Red Devil
Lye, the third. Jean Hibbard
and Carolyn Baker wrapped a.
bout by bath towels led the pro-
cession.
The marchers returned to the
school house by way Of Rose
mary street.

Where the Stadium Will Be

When William r. Kenan's gift
to the University was announced
in the newspapers last Sunday
morning, many an alumnus no
doubt wondered just where the
stadium was to be. Particularly
for the benefit of those who
have been away from Chapel
Hill many years, and are unfa-
miliar with the recent changes
in and around the campus, Il
will here give a brief descrip-
tion Of the site that is now the
first choice.
To the south of the campus,
running in a direction parallel
with Cameron avenue, is a
thoroughfare known as South
Road, whose east end is at tile
old Raleigh road and whose
west end is at the Pittsboro-
Pinehurst highway. It is about
200 yards from where the old
stone wall boundary used to be.
The only building now alongside
it is the Tin Can, the immense
structure used for basketball,
boxing, wrestling, volley ball,
and other indoor sports. The
Tin Can is about on a line run
ming due south from the New
East building, a little way be-
yond Emerson Field.
A stroller going west along
the South Road comes, a few
yards after passing the Tin Can,
upon a wagon trail leading off
into the woods on the left. If
he follows this trail some fifty
or seventy-five PAGES and then
swings down the slope to the
right, in less than two minutes
he is standing where, a year or
so hence, thousands of people
will be looking down upon the
furious struggles Of the football
players.
Now it is a dense wood. When
| was walking there Sunday af-
ternoon the thought came to me
that / had never seen a place
so near to the habitations' of
man and at the same time with
such an atmosphere Of remote
ness. For all the signs or
sounds there were of human
life, ! might have been in the
wilds of an unexplored continent.
Overhead the sombre green Of
The Chapel Hill weekly. [volume] (Chapel Hill, N.C.) 1923-1972, 1926-11-19

the pines mingled with the bril-
liant autumn leaves of hickories
and oaks and ashes and ma
pies. Beneath my feet was a
thick carpet of pine needles, and
| had to wind in and out to find
a way through the underground.
The place has been called "a
natural amphitheatre," and it is.
Two little valleys coming from
the northwest converge into a
single valley which runs almost
directly south and through
which flows a tiny brook. Look
ing across from the eastern
slope you see another and a
somewhat higher and sleeper
slope on the west. In the space
between will be the playing
field, and on the hillsides will be
built the rows of concrete seats.
The water of the brook will
pass through a tunnel of iron or
masonry several feet below the
level of the arena. 4
The lover of the forest may
be disposed to mourn, at first,
that many trees will have to be
felled; but a careful survey of
the site will reassure him. For
there are going to be plenty of
trees left. On all sides the
Kenan stadium will be bordered
by woods, and when a game is
on, in the autumn, the colors on
the field and the stands will be
more than matched by the bril-
liancy of the autumn foliage.
An eminent architect, on
a visit from New York a few
months ago, went for a walk
here, and after he had travers-
ed the valley and clambered up
the hills, he said to his guides:
Il have never seen the equal
of this setting for a stadium. It
gives you the opportunity for a
really beautiful creation. I
mean, architecturally and Scent
cally beautiful. Most of the
'stadia throughout the country
are built on the outskirts of
cities, often with the smoke
stacks of factories rising against
the sky. Or, at best, on an open
field where the concrete mass
stands like a monster box. Here
the seats will be laid against the

Travel Notes

If one were to judge by the
road signs he would have to con-
clude that Virginia was a more
pious state than North Caro-
lima. Going from Murfreesboro
northward last week, whichever
way l looked, right or left, was
urged to smoke Velvet tobacco,
drink coca cola, lubricate my en-
gine with Veedol, and so on. But
hardly had I crossed the line into
the Old Dominion when a board
ing bade me sternly: Prepare
to Meet Thy God!"
AS I proceeded On towards
Petersburg the warnings and ap-
peals became more numerous.
One sign bore the question,
Heaven or Hell-Which ?" An
other asked: Where Will You
Be in Eternity?"
.
When l passed through the
district where the military op-
erations of the Civil War had
taken place, it occurred to me
that one of the most frequent
of these admonitory legends
Death Is on Your Trackw-
might have been used to advan-
tage against Grants soldiers.
Suppose a unit of the Confeder-
ate signal service had been as
signed to place thousands of
copies of this threat on the
roads leading toward Lees army.
death Is on Your Track. 1T
has a sinister and awful sound,
and the constant repetition of
it might have shattered the
morale of the Federal host. The
terrifying effect is considerably
enhanced by the sombre battle
ship-gray background upon
which the letters are painted.
