Dean of Applied Science School Suf-
fering from Severe Heart Attack

DR.. J. M, Bell, dean of the
school of applied science, who
suffered a heart attack Saturday
of last week, is still critically
ill. His condition has improved
greatly within the past few
days, however, and there is
hope that period of rest and
quiet will restore him to health.
His ailment is an affection of
the arteries known as coronary
thrombosis which seems to lie
in wait for men of middle age.
1t came upon him suddenly, but
not wholly without warning as
he had recently found that nine
holes of golf were considerably
easier than 18 and that any
considerable exertion was apt
to result in shortness of breath
accompanied by pain.

The Freshman Game
First-Year Eleven Meets State College
At Greensboro Tonight

The University freshman elev-
en- tonight meets the State
College team in the Greensboro
memorial stadium in the first
electrically-lighted football con-
test which Carolina has helped
to stage.
Both teams opened their
seasons last Friday with two
touchdown victories, the Uni
versity freshmen defeating
Louisburg College II to 0 and
the State College yearlings over
coming the Davidson frst-year
team IA to 0.
Local interest in the game is
heightened by the presence in
the University lineup of Dick
Dashiell, a frst-string halfback
who made one of the touch
downs against Louisburg.

Walks Into Truck
Texanna Neville Killed in Unavoidable
Accident on Franklin Street

Texanna Neville, a Negro wo-
man of about forty years of age,
was struck and almost instantly
killed Monday night at 7:15
when she walked into the trail
er of a truck which was passing
along in front of the colored
Baptist church on West Frank

The truck was driven by Ed
Nixon, Smithfield Negro en-
ployed by the Austin Ogburn
Cotton company of that town,
who promptly stopped and
awaited an investigation. DR..
S. A. Nathan, coroner, quickly
held an inquest, at which a jury
composed of John Thompson, w.

Lilac Blooms in Fall
Warrens' Bush Has an October Yield
of White Flowers

The J. A. Warrens' yard or
Hillsboro street is adorned with
a white lilac in full bloom.
This is not in conformity with
the usual course of nature. The
time for lilacs to bloom is in the
spring.
Mine has flowers in both
spring and fall" Mr.. Warren
said yesterday, his chest bulg-
ing with pride. "The same thing
happened in October of last
year"
Mr.. Warren is the University
treasurer. He sits all day
among auditors and ook-keep-
ers, and in this circle, no doubt,
the lilac's performance is des-
cribed as the declaration of an
extra dividend.
One of Mr.. Warren's neigh
bors in the South building is
Miss Josie Pritchard. In Octo-
Der a year ago, when she was
president of the Garden Club.
Mr.. Warren walked into her Of
flee and told her he had white
lilac in bloom.
"It's not sc" she said, to con-
vince him that she was not to be
spoofed.

CHAPEL HILL IS
TO HAVE NINE
MONTHS SCHOOL
Additional Tax Levy of 1875
Cents Carries by a Sub
stantial Majority.
SMALL WAGE INCREASE

BY a vote of 729 against a
registration of 1899 the Chapel
Hill special school district last
Thursday approved an addition
al tax levy of 1875 cents on the
500 property valuation. As a
result the children get an extra
month beyond the state-sup-
piled eight-months term and
the teachers a small supplement
to the salaries paid them under
the state schedule.
The issue was in doubt up to
the end, for there had been in
sistent opposition to the levy
from many quarters. Thorough
canvassing of their neighbors
by mothers of some of the chill
dren affected was perhaps the
deciding factor.
The result places Chapel Hill
among a small group of North
Carolina communities-Durham.
Rocky Mount, Roanoke Rapids,
and Southern Pines-which will
have nine months school for the
1933-34 term. Greensboro and
Charlotte voted down additional
levies; Raleigh authorities re-
fused to put the matter to vote.
There is evident on all sides
a feeling of relief that the cleo
tion is past and gone. Advo-
Gates of the proposal are quietly
content; there has been no pub
lie outcry from those who did
not feel that conditions justified
the increase in their budgets.

School Football Today
Chapel Hill and Apex Elevens viii
Meet on Emerson Field

The Chapel Hill high school
football team will play Apex at
8 o'clock this (Friday) after
noon on Emerson field.
1t appears that the team here
has a good chance to win the
Class B championship.
The team lost to Durham, a
Glass A team, in a non-confer-
ence game last Friday by the
close score of 1913. Durham,
Class A champion in 1881, is
considered one of the States
strongest teams and has given
up two touchdowns in one after
noon to only one team besides
Chapel Hill in the seasons of
1882 and 1888.
Another Class A team, Rocky
Mount, lost to Chapel Hill 14-0;
and Chapel Hill played to
scoreless tie with Oxford, re-
garded by Coach Auburn
Wright as it's hardest Glass B
opponent. The tie will be play
ed off to determine the district
winner in the event, which is
likely, that both teams win all
their other scheduled games.
Opposing teams encounter
constant threat in Raymond
Andrews, blocking halfback and
pass receiver. Basil Taylor and
Benson Partin do Chapel Hills
passing, while Bill Canada does
the punting. Canada and Her.
man Lloyd are strong in the line.
During the last three years,
under the coaching of Mr..
Wright, Chapel Hill teams have
occupied strong position in the
Glass B conference, where the
state championship is decided
by elimination. Last year the
team was defeated by Elizabeth
City in the eastern division
semi-finals.

MRS. GOTTEN IS
NRA. DIRECTOR
IN THIS DISTRICT
Chapel Hin Already Has Com
pliance Board Which Makes
Inquiry into Complaints
CHAIRMAN is E. c. SMITH

Nj Id Z. u. SMl II
At the meeting of the State
Recovery Board Tuesday in
Greensboro Mrs. Lyman Gotten
of Chapel Hill was assigned to
the district composed of Orange,
Durham, Person, and Chatham
counties. Her task will be to
maintain contacts with county
and town N.R.A. committees al
ready organized and to aid in
organizing new committees
where they are needed.
"Mr. Shipping, the chairman
of the State Board, has request
ed from Washington more spe-
cific authority for dealing with
violations of N.RA. Codes" said
Mrs. Gotten yesterday, "and he
has also asked that N.R.A.
headquarters assign to North
Carolina an accredited repre-
sentative to work with the
state organization.
"The duties of the district
members of the State Board
have not yet been thoroughly
defined. We are to get detailed
instructions later. Meanwhile
we are to cooperate with the
local boards"
Chapel Hill is one of the COM
munities where a Compliance
Board has been organized and
is functioning actively. The
members are E. C. Smith
(chairman), Clyde Eubanks,
Marvin Utley, G. M. Hill, James
Foister, and P. S. Randolph.
"Our Compliance Board" said
Mr.. Smith yesterday, receives
a complaint from anybody who
wants to enter one, either in
writing or orally. Every case is
investigated by a committee of
citizens whose names are not
known.
"Of course what we want to
do is to settle every disagree
ment peaceably, without taking
any formal action against an
employer, and thus far we have
been able to do that. Our local
board has no authority to take
away anybody's Blue Eagle. If
there were a violation which
we could not put an end to, we
would have to refer the case to
Mr.. Shipping, chairman of the
State Recovery Board, and he
would have to get an order from
Washington before the posses
sor of a Blue Eagle could be
forced to give it up.
"Our local board has been
getting its instructions as to the
procedure it must follow, from
Mr.. Shipping. The idea back of
the whole scheme is to seek to
attain the obiectives of the
N.R.A. by persuasion and CO.
operation, not by compulsion."

wishing to acquire the maximum of
profit from their ingenious venture, car
ried with them a foot ball for each

them stuffed with the contraband.
Such an assortment OF globular
equipment naturally aroused first the
curiosity and then the suspicious of the
officers. One of the balls was forth

that the balls and their contents were
promptly conf1scated. They were found
to contain not less than $4,000 ciga-
retteS. These were transferred to the
government warehouses and the pig
skins to the customs museum. This
latter fact shows that the people and
authorities of the Balkans appreciate
the quaint or comic in such circum-

Whether the foot ball game took
place or not is left to the presumption
OF our readers. Let us hope, at least.
