WTith two old troopers in the
male cast, and two camparative-
ly new members, the boys in
Wuthering Heights, to be pre-
sented May 16th, and 17th, are
proving to be as interesting a
problem as the girls. Anything
and everything has been expect-
ed to happen when these four
boys begin their excellent inter-
pretations of their parts in this

were held the parts of Heath-
cliff Hindley and Joseph were
held over until more boys could
read the parts and the best mem-
bers could be chosen for this

past experience as Rogers in
Sky Fodder and Prof. Vorheese
in The Skull immediately quali-
fied him for the demon lover
of Cathy, Heathcliff. George has
already found that the waif
Heathcliff calls for a mixture
of his finest acting qualities in
order to love Cathy desparately
and hate Joseph equally as
passionately.
Russell Rogerson, as the de-
spised servant Joseph, is believed
to be a real "find Even at re-
hearsals when Joseph enters the
stage with his stooped shoulders,
shuffling gate, croaking laugh,
and incessant scripture verses,
there is an atmosphere that
makes the observer wish the
auditorium were not quite so
empty. Russell has appeared be-
fore in Bread and is making his
debut in a three-act play in the

to be a "find but Billy Green

If you were a grain of sand,
you would have a mighty hard
time trying to escape from this
campus, due to the efforts of
President Meadows and his soil
conservation program. He says
that erosion is "something I
have been intensely interested
in, for. if there's anything I
hate, it's waste. By erosion,
about one-third of American
soil has been lost. If an enemy
had come over and taken that
much of our land, we would cer-
tainly fight to recover it. Why,
then, should we allow it to go to
waste without doing anything
about it?
Seven or eight years ago, we
were losing yearly between 40
and 50 truckloads of valuable
soil that could never be recover-
ed. In back of the Y Hut, a large
ditch had formed from the
water than ran down from 8th
and 9th streets, and students
had to get logs in order to cross.

Although touched for 14
safties, Lefty Dunn kept them
scattered enough for the
E. C. T. C. Pirates to defeat the
visiting Elon Christians 7-6, at
the Guy Smith Stadium yester-
day.
The victory was a sweet one
for Coach Christenbury and his
team. Elon is one of the pace-
setters of the fast North State
Conference, and were the pre-
game favorites to win the game.
The Chritians, coached by
Horace Hendrickson. former

two-run lead in the first frame
on a single and successive
doubles by Gardner and Daher.
E. C. T. C. came back with two
