the fact that both teams have their
records ciouded this year with two

also have two ties against them

Why Smith Should
Be President
By George Gordon Battle,

Governor Smith has shown genius
for the administration of public af-
fairs. He is now serving his fourth
term as the Governor of the state of
NeW York. He has been Governor
longer than any of his predecessors
except the first Governor of the state
George Clinton, who served for sew
en- terms.
He has constantly had TO contend
with Republican legislature. Dur
ing great part of his incumbency
the chief object of that legislature
has apparently been to thwart his
projects. Notwithstanding these ad-
verse conditions, ,,he has, by the sound
ness of his judgment and the force
of his will, compelled reluctant and
hostile legislature to cooperate with
him in reforming the entire govern
ment of this state, so as to make it
vastly more efficient in functioning
and far more economical in its cost.
He is rebuilding the state hospitals
and prisons, which have been for some
years a. disgrace to New York. He
has conceived and put through leg
islation, the result of which will be to
abolish the most dangerous of railroad
crossings throughout the state. Large
ly through his own initiative he has
succeeded in placing upon the statute
books of New York the most enhght-
ened factory laws that can be found
in any state of the Union.
He has been and is truly progress
sive, with warm sympathy for hn-
manity, coupled with a degree of wis
dom and common sense that insures
the safety of all his governmental
enterprises. He has a passion for
facts; and never takes, any action
without first fully informing himself
as to the actual conditions He is of
stainless and unquestioned integrity
in his public and private life. He
is in the highest degree intellectually
honest. There is in him no trace of
the demagogue. He has never pur-
veyed our great national dish of
hokum. In the administration of the
affairs Of this great Empire state he
has had to deal with gigantic prob
lens of every character, political, So
cial and financial. He has shown

PRACTICE BEGINS
IN NEW STADIUM
Varsity Players Have a Drill on
Kenan Field, with a Few
Spectators
DAVIDSON MATCH THERE

Football was played in the new

event was practice by the Car
olina team-punting, tackling,
and throwing of passes, and a
little scrimmaging.
1t was not generally known
that the players would go to the
new field, so there were few on
lockers. Charles T. Woollen, r.

who chanced to come there in the
course of afternoon stroIling,
made up the body of spectators.

stand, opposite the goal line, a
good view of the play was OBJ

Chapel Hill Chaf

Among the oldest Fords
plying the streets of the village
are three 1923 two-door sedans:
w. S. Bernard's, Francis Brad
shaw's, and mine. According
as this or that one of the trfplets
receives a fresh coat of paint,
one of us takes precedence over
the other two in respectability.
Mr.. Bernard and l had an ac-
cess of zeal recently, and so now
the dean of students stands a
bad third; but before long he
will be rolling up the street in
in the Kaiser's phrase-shin-

more than that to separate even
one of Them from its owner. |
doubt if there ever was a vehicle,
except a hearse itself, more

other time does my car so har-
monize with it's surroundings as

yard. But long acquaintance

ened, in my eyes, its aspect of

gesting a new purchase, look

age and pity, but | like to think

JOhnsOn's Book Praised
Is Acclaimed in Front Page Review
in the Kew York Times

The entire first page of the
book review section of last Sun
days New York Times is given
over to Charles Willis Thomp-
sons review of Gerald Johnson's
Andrea Jackson: An Epic IN
HomeSpNn. Mr.. Thompson calls
it IAN extraordinarily dramatic
and convincing character study
of this human whirlwind," and
ends his review with the state
ment that "for the perfection
with which Mr.. Johnson has
traced the unity of Jackson's
life and character, his book is
memorable"
The passage that is selected
for quotation, as perhaps the
most striking in the whole vol
ume, is:
Jackson, as a small boy, came
reeling into American history
with a sabre cut on his head, and
as the years gather upon him
they gleam with steel and blood.
1t was a roaring career, re-
sounding to the roars of cheer
ing multitudes, of musketry, of
artillery. 1t was a theatrical
career in the style of Gallo ro-
nance, astonjshingly like the
career that Rostand imagined
for Cyrano de Bergerac."
