U-HI CLUB TO GIVEi PROGRAM
Group to Appear at the High School Assembly on Wednesday
The U-Hi Club, which has been organized to create a closer contact between the University and Miami High School, will present a University program at the high school assembly tomorrow as its first piece of work for the year. It will also obtain tickets for the high school seniors to the game with Elon next Saturday.
The membership pf this organization consists of three juniors, three sophomores and four freshmen from the University and five seniors .from high school. The officers are: Francis Houghtaling, president; Charles Kittel, vice-president; Bee Smith, secretary and treasurer, and Marion Wallace, chairman of the program committee. Dean J. T. Holdsworth and W. B. Longnecker will act as the University sponsors and Miss Bernice Reed will be the faculty advisor at high school.
The club plans during the coming year to put the University more clearly before the high school students, to show them its educational advantages, and to give them a foretaste of college life. According to the president, the members felt that there was too little understanding and sympathy with the University at high school and wish to remedy this condition.
To get the schools more closely together, the club has planned an extensive program for the year. It will obtain tickets for members of the senior class to special football and basketball games. It will sponsor a high school girls’ entertainment by the sororities and the boys’ by the fraternities. It will invite the senior class to the University to see some of the workings of college life. ¡.
The program at high school tomorrow will introduce the students there to the U-Hi club and to show them some of the attractions of the University. That famous trio, Aye Farr, Bob Stanton and Walt Svehla, will open and close the program with two of their snappy Melody Boys’ numbers. Peter White will explain the purpose of the U-Hi club and invite the seniors to the game Saturday, and Bee Smith will give a pep talk.
The members of the club are Mary James, Peter White and Francis Houghtaling, juniors; Marion Wallace, Carson Bradford and Klea Houghtaling, sophomores; Bee Smith, Frank Peterson, Bob Minear and Jane Wood, freshmen; and Jack Butler, Bobby Baker, Zelma Girtman, Mary Lou Key and Charles Kittel, high school representatives.

DR. WICKER HAS MAGAZINE STORY
“The Canal Is the Answer” Is Among 10 Best Articles For November
Cyrus French Wicker, counselor in Spanish-American law, has written an article, “The Canal Is the Answer,” for the November issue of the Century Magazine, which has been acclaimed by authorities as one of the tea best magazine articles of the month.
Professor Wicker has attended Yale University, New York Law School, University of San Carlos, Guatemala, was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford, and holds the following degrees: A.B., A.M., LL.B., B.C. and LL.D. He has been in the United ' States government diplomatic service in Panama, Morocco and Nicaraugua, and in the naval intelligence service throughout Central America.
“The Canal Is the Answer” strikingly simplifies the “International Significance of the Nicaraguan Tangle.” Of alternatives, namely, Panama and Nicaragua, the Nicaraguan route is the more practical because of abundant supply of water from a lake fifty times the size of that at Panama, the healthful climate and the demands of increasing world trade.
“It is vitally important, therefore, to the protection of the United States and to the maintenance of our trade and commerce, that the Nicaraguan canal be built.”
The United States has been fortunate enough to secure from the conservative faction, the successor of the Liberal party in Nicaragua, the Bryan-Chamorro treaty, a treaty that “gives the United States not only the exclusive right to the canal-route, but also the defense of the Atlantic entrance and a naval base second to none in the Pacific.” Four nations of Central America have resented Nicaragua’s ostensible lack of foresight and have presented their claims tt> the Central American Court of Justice,” Salvador and Honduras, with

The brightest part of the game was the improvement in the Hurricanes’ line. Last eek it looked pretty bad in spots but against the Tars it gave promise of soon becoming a forward wall that will match any the Hurricanes might meet. There is not a man in that t01 forward line that didn’t star Saturday. Naturally Kimbrough,
