The election was held under the new plan recently adopted by the Junior and Senior classes by which an open meeting was held attended by all Seniors and all other students who ad paid $500 as a guarantee of their intention to stay to Commencement. The assistant managers elected were T. Spears, Robert Strange, Walter Stokes and F. H. Kennedy of the Senior Class, and Frank Drew and Lenoir Chambers of the Junior class.

The address of the occasion was made by Chief Justice Walter Clark, of the State Supreme Court. Judge Clark made a strong speech. He pointed out that the present position of the State was far from what it should be. "Poverty assails our public school system and our great University, and why is it he asked, lie traced the cause down to the influence of the large corporations in our political life and to freight discriminations which, he said, "rob us of He appealed strongly to the rising lawyers to change this state of affairs, to put' the State at the top, where she rightly belongs. W.

II Gwynn, Milton Alexander, and Z. V. Babbitt spoke. PROF. WILLIAMS' ADDRESS Analyzes Methods of History Before Society Pror.

II. II. Williams delivered the talk at the regular monthly meeting or the Historical Society last Monday night. His subject was "Historical consciousness," which lie defined as the interest that one has in studying History even to the minute details. This interest touches tlie mind of man fiom three different angles.

First comes Rationalism, the attitude of nhMosophical speculation from which man works out the theory of the universe. Empiricism, the second, is the reaction and the exact opposite of the first. It wants facts. Enlightenment, the last and final stage of the developed mind, takes the facts and uses them to explain theories. Therefore, since in enlightenment we prove the principles through facts, anything tint happens anywhere should interest us.

After the first lecture the remainder of the series will be given on Tuesday and Thursday nights, When this is the case the Y.

M. A. will suspend religious exercises on those nights in order that there "may be no conflict. The Greater Council with the aid of Drs. MacNider, Wilson, vuaoc nave arranged this series.

The subjects of the lectures are matters about which the students are interested and ignorant. They deal with thintrs that. the students have a right to know and should know, too Realizing this the Council set to work. They thought that it would be much better to have men from within the University, men about whom they know and' in wliniTI tliap 1 uavc every conn- dene. deliver them than to get some traveling lecturer to give them.

Vote Down Eyery Possible Form of Entertainment at Stormy Meeting THE ACTION UPSETS ALL PRECEDENT They Won't Have a Prom or a "Reception or a Smoker or a Banquet or any Combination From These Four. The Juniors fairly themselves Wednesday outdid nighf. After wrangling for an hour and a half and voting down every suggested form of entertainrrent for Junior Week, they ended up by deciding to give nothing. Senior Siunts may go on forever, but the Juniors will hereafter pay for their seats. The meeting was a stormy one.

Two or three preliminary gatherings had been held at various times in the last two weeks, but they only prepared the way. Every body was there, men who had not attended a class meeting since entering col lege. The only real thing ac complished was the setting the week after Easter as the time for what used to be Junior Week. That was the first business and also the last. After that it was talk.

Spence, L. R. Johnson, and a host of others were on their feet offering motions, and counter-motions, amendments, and sug-gesiions until the air was blue. The Prom was voted down first. Then a smoker forxthe Seniors fell by the wayside.

yV joint banquet'suffered the same fate, and a reception found only six supporters. Different combinations of these four were brought up and knocked down jm rapid succession. Nobody had any good solution of the problem; everybody wanted to kill his neighbor's proposition. The Prom was unrepresentative, smokers have los' their newness, a banquet was too commonplace and expensive, and no reception could succeed after last years' effort. Finally some one with sense moved that Junior's give nothing at all.

Eureka! The solution was found. The motion er of Columbia University, Do5bins is at his home at Rural Hall for a few davs. Temporarily. Virginia won from Carolina in basketball Monday night at the Raleigh Auditorium, 30 to 19. The first half euded in a tie, 13 to 13, and the game looked to be an even chance.

Early in the second half, however, Redmon was disqualiled for rough playing and his loss seemed to take the life out of the Tar Heels. After that Virginia made 17 4 points to Carolina's 6. The disqualification of Redmon caused an uproar. The twelve hundred spectators hiss ed the referee, called him names and yelled themselves hoarse For ten minutes everybody lost their heads, then the game was. rwuniwl.

But the Carolina team was a changed organization and Virginia had things her own way. The first half was a fine exhi bition ot basketball. The teams were closely matched and both foue-ht desneratelv. Virginia 1 A. played a dribbling game, Lv man in particular proving a star in that feature.

Carolina relied more on passing and took many long shots. Carrington's field goal and Lontrs's iroal from the foul line gave Carolina the jump, but Virginia soon overcame, that lead and worked the score up to 8 to 3. Two long shots by Til lett and Chambers made it more nearly even and fron then on it was nip and tuck, the half end ing a tie 13 to 13. At the beginning of the second half each team scored once and then came Redmon's disquali fication. Homewood took his place.

Carolina fouled a number of times and Gill's shooting from the foul line was deadly. Rixey scored two pretty goals and Lyman put in another after a long dribble, the game ending at 30 to 19. Carolina's play in the first half was the best the team has done. Tillett was all over the floor and Long made some beautiful shots. Redmon.

TO HELP RElAY TEAM Psychic Entertainment for Track Department The Athletic Association wants to send a relay team to Washington to run against Virginia and to help raise money for the trip has secured the services- of. Mr. Delroy, a Psychic Entertainer.

Mr. Delroy will appear at Ger-rard Hall on Wednesday, February 19th, and he should be greeted by a large audience. His performance is in many respects remarkable. He does not claim to have more supernatural power than any other person, but he will perform all the standard acts of mind readers, clairvoyants, hypnotis's, palmists and then show how all of them are fakes. He is principally a revealer.

lie wil' explain methods of telling names, how answers appear on slates, how sealed questions are answered, how character may be determined from hand-writ in a-, how to acquire personal magnetism, and everything else the calendar. Mr. Delroy has ap peared before many large clubs, hotels, and in private audience with prominent people. The prospects of sending a relay team to Washington are excellent. It wili race Virginia at Georgetown Indoor (lames on March 1st.

The distance is two miles and each runner will go a half mile. From Captain Patterson, Spence, Cobb, Whiting, Ranson, and others a. team can be picked that will make anybody hustle to beat them. The problem now is raising enough money and the student body has an excellent chance to help. The Philanthropic Society last Saturday night debated the following query: "Resolved, That the President of te United States should be elected for a term of six years and that he be not eligible for more than one term." The judges decided that D.
