UNIVERSITY y RTH CAROLINAr-J, YACKETY-YACK fully resolved that the spirit of haromny, progress, and unity which had characterized us thus far should continue to prevail in our class. To further this idea, we instituted the custom of class smokers. They proved to be a success in every sense of the word. To the varsity football team we gave Tillett (Captain) and Strange. On the class field, our football team again fa led to cross their opponents ' line. Thus we hold an unparallelled record. Our men are now actively engaged in many phases of college life. D. L. Rights is president of the Y. M. C. A., and also editor-in-chief of the Magazine. G. L. Car- nngton is editor-. n-chief of the Tar Heel. A. L. M. Wiggins is editor-in-chief of the YACKETY Yack. All these men have filled their respective positions with honor and credit to the class. We have gathered around the festive board for the last time as undergraduates. We can ■ VlcttinD .1 • hardly realize that our college career, which has s TP 1 ' ' V 7 a • been intermingled with joys and disappointments, ■. 5 wm m Vm i ' - w ' soon e a tnm S °f tne P ast - As we go forth from these sacred walls to make our way in the world, we do so with a feeling of sadness, for during these four years here we have come to love and cherish this institution and the many friendships formed while here. May God ' s blessings go with each and every one of us, and may we prove a credit to ourselves, an honor to our University, and loyal and patriotic citizens of our State. — M. T. S. THIRI V I IINl I

We were beginning to place ourselves, and to find out our duty to ourselves and to the University. The true meaning of college life was gradually dawning upon us. Another summer passed, and we again gathered around the well, but there was a feeling of sadness in our hearts, for death had visited our ranks during the summer and claimed as its victim Melvin Buckley. The beginning of our Junior year was signalized by the unanimous election of Bob Huffman as president. This election exemplified the sentiment of the class, and was an index to the fact that the spirit of harmony prevailed among us. During the fall of this year, we furnished to the varsity football team, Tillett, Strange, and Ritch. In class football, we were again unable to cope with our opponents, but the record made by our varsity representatives fully offset our poor showing on the class field. With the coming of sprng, the desire of change which has characterized our class agam manifested itself, in that the class after much wrangling and discussion decided that the Junior Prom must go. In its place was substituted a reception given to the Seniors and members of the faculty. In class baseball, we failed to win the championship as in the pre- ceding year, but our team was, nevertheless, a creditable one. To the varsity baseball team we gave Swink, and to the track team Blalock. Thirteen of our men were elected to membership in the ( ) B K. This was the largest number ever furnished by any class here, and we were justly proud of this fact. Although by abolish- ing the Junior Prom some dissension arose between some of our members, yet this was soon forgotten, and our class again became a compact body, and harmony once more prevailed among us. We now prided ourselves on the fact that we were a democratic body. The spirit of progress again showed itself in our ranks. This time it decreed that we hold our class election in the spring, and thus have everything in readiness when we returned in Sep- tember to resume our work. Walter Stokes, Jr., was selected a. : the one best able to uphold the dignity of our class. Miss Kasey, one of our co-eds, was chosen vice-president. Summer passed, and eighty Seniors answered to the roll call. We were now on our last lap, and as we entered it, we d d so Jv » ' -.. ' .-- . ' - V »,, - . . THIRTY- TirO
