Students Hold Snow Carnival Professors Are Attacked Chapel Attacked By Big- Group; Many Windowpanes Broken; Classes Barraged By John Bigham All the broken window-panes have been replaced and all (be injured have recovered, but Carolina students will remember for a long time the snow which fell Wednesday of last week. Little did tbosc who looked upon the snow with childish glee that morning, realize that by evening the campus would be a scene of carnage and destruction. The snow was beautiful as it lay unmarked and unadulterated on the ground in the early morning, but it did not remain so long. Groups of the weaker sex, congregated around the front of the library, were soon bombarded and put to flight by males who banished any chivalry that they might have possessed. A Negro woman, throwing discretion to the winds, attempted to make passage through the campus. She was suddenly beset by a horde of fanatics who dealt out deathly snowballs. Realizing that resistance was futile, she gave one long, shrill cry of "Mama" and fled in ignominious retreat. An unknown number of windowpanes bit the dust?or snow?when a battle royal took place at ten o'clock in front of the chapel. Freshmen who Hfclt the call of duty stronger than selfHprcservation, were literally swept oil Hthcir feet by a barrage of snowballs V Has they went in and came out of chapel. The adjacent windows proved Htoo tempting, and soon glass began to Hshatter here and there, as missiles sailed through to land on the heads of terror-stricken inhabitants within. I A talk by Librarian Kennedy was Hnterrupted time and time again, and Hiis hearers failed to reconcile his ^frvprds with the battling elements out. H-ide. fl Four or five windows gave up the ' Hjhost in Sloan college. Davis held up Hvell despite a continued attack at the .. * *nd of each hour. A class of EngHish under Dr. Babcock was almost ^ cattercd by concentrated windowH>reaking. Afraid to appear on the Hipper porch of the Extension buildHng, the brave pedagogue stuck a ^ftmall portion of his body out, waived B white handkerchief, and asked for Himc to call the roll. I The faculty suffered inmeasurably, Hghting against great odds, and as Helpless as a countryman in New York HMty. Professor Bass was put to flight, H)ean Bradley ran the gauntlet of the Hrmy after chapel. President Baker Hould not be found, Dr. Kennedy remm^ to nm at first, but then changed ^?^^^is mind, Dean Olsen fell a victim to the inevitable, and R. G. Bell lost his hat. The snow was gone by evening, and many breathed a sigh of relief. Those students who had participated in the glass-breaking eased their consciences by recalling the breakage fee charged to all each semester, and the few Yankee students here and there asked themselves whether these Southern people had run off on a tangent, just because it snowed.

The place is probably obvious. I think this because it is the most easily acccssablc hiding place. I don't believe any big gang, but a small group, has done it because of the sum asked for the return of the baby." Hap Edens: "I think the fate of Baby Lindv will be a mystery for years."

A rough and tumble game of hockey on skates was played between the Reds and the Purples with the Reds making not onlj' the greatest number of points but also the greatest number of falls. Howls of laughter greeted the dignified co-eds dressed in clown suits turning somersaults. The clowns also built pyramids, turned cartwheels, and dived. Eleven nymphs gracefully danced "Running Trios," "In the Waves" and "Circle Dance." Girls wearing short gingham dresses and with their hair in pig-tails or long curls skipped and hopped in a dance called "Topsy." 273 co-eds participated in the exhibition.
