Two readings preceded the play, a musical reading, "The Family Album given by Ida Davis, and a humorous reading given by .Tuanita Etheridge. The scene of the play, a comedy, "Fncle Dick's Mistake was in a hoarding house. All the members of the cast were freshmen. Harvey Deal was the foolish son of the at- tractive widow whose part was played by Mabel Williams. Geral- dine Harris took the part of the heroine, and Jeter Oakley and Robert Pittman were the two men. Miss Isabelle Pollock had charge of the program.

Clarence Patrick, pastor of the Immanual Baptist Church. "Life today he said, "is en- tirely different from life of Biblical times; for there are so many things to do that it is almost impossible to get all of them accomplished, therefore, emphasis should be put on things that are important and not on the unimportant things The crossroads of life, he pointed out. must be faced and students must know which road to choose. He classified the problems of stu- dents in three groups, physical, mental, and spiritual. Tn the last of these comes Religion, which should be positive and run through the entire active life. In closing, he said that students by putting their eyes upon the light of the world and following it can solve the problems of the cross roads. Miss Madelaine Eakes sang a solo. "1 Would Be True The audience, judged by their frequent spontaneous laughs and ap- plause, enjoyed thoroughly the amusing situations and lines of "Twecdles as presented on March 12 by the "last of the D's the senior- normal class of 1037. And the class upheld the reputation for the 26 classes preceding them for giving high class plays in a creditable man- ner. There is no doubt left in the minds of those who had been curious to know the answer to the question "What's a Tweedle?" They found the head of the Tweedle family stood for all persons anywhere who are arrogant in their pride in family. Britton Director The director of the play, Clifton Britton, a student, proved unmis- takable ability, especially in getting stage effects and by devices that help to create the illusions of the theatre. He created and gave a good all-round production, with a good, strong play, well cast and well interpreted. There was some remarkably good acting, especially for amateurs. The audience followed the affair between the lovers with eager interest. Al- vah Page played the difficult part of the dreaming, insistent lover and rebellious son remarkably well, and the audience from his first line did not miss a trick or mood. Miss Re- becca Williams was a happy choice for the lovely New England provin- cial girl who was awakened on un- derstanding of her family, and by the magic of love. Braxton Excellent Joe Braxton was excellent as the rough, but proudful, boasting head of the Tweedle family. Bill Pratt was a sharp contrast as the arrogant gentleman of culture, the head of the Castlebury family. He and Miss Lucy Fouts as the elegant Mrs. Cas- tlebury, the ideal snobbish aristo- crats, handsome, well-dressed and sure of themselves. Miss Ellen Moore was a fine com- bination of the thrifty proprietress of the shop and tea room and as the dragon aunt. Miss Bettie Sue Heath, as the wise young widow in her modish dress, proved herself truly sophisticated from the first flip of her cigarette. Harvey Deal played well the part of the slouching awk- ward, meddlesome boy of the Tweedle household. Ralph Ilutchinson as the rough policeman Tweedle brought down the house every time he appeared and especially when he got gloriously drunk on "confiscated liquor The stage was exceedingly effec- tive, with the action taking place in a real antique shop, with the tea terrace just outside, the scenery in (Please turn to page three) Members of the Junior Class, headed by Elizabeth Cope- land, and advised by Miss Katherine Holtzclaw and Dr. R.

"Education as a Profession" was the subject of a revelational message brought to members of Tau Chapter, Phi Sicrma Pi, national professional educational fraternity, by Dr. Her- bert ReBarker, dean of men and di- rector of instruction in mathematics here, on Wednesday night, March 17, when he was made an honorary member of the organization. "Education is the oldest profes- sion known to man Dr. ReBarker said. He pointed out that the oldest book, the Ahmes Papyrus, written about 3000 B.C is a mathematic text book. Not only is the teaching profession one of the oldest, but also has made, perhaps, more valuable contributions than any other profes- sion. "Practically all we know about disease today was not discovered by M.Ds he' said, "but by scholars working in the medical profession In discussing the status quo of teachers in the United States and in Continental Europe, Dr. Re- Barker said that the average teacher in this country is commonly thought of as a "crank covered with crayon dust while in Europe, the teacher is placed in the second highest social group. Factors probably contribut- ing to the low standing of the teach- ing profession in this country were listed by Dr. ReBarker as: 1�Inad- equacy of salaries; 2�putting sal- aries before service; 3�Requiring too little college training; 4�Per- mitting the profession to be used as a political football; 5�Failure to cope with the public socially. In concluding. Dr. ReBarker said that a possibility of doing the great- est good today, as always, lies in the teaching profession, and that more teachers with their lives dedicated to service in the profession are needed. Reports Preceding Dr. ReBarker's talk, Wesley Bankston, Francis Sinclair, and William Sledge made interesting reports on their recent trip to St. Louis, Mo to attend the national (Please turn to page three) Interesting Exhibit of Rare Books Arranged in English Club Room A most interesting exhibit of rare old and beautiful new books was on display in the English club room here from March 10 to 17. Among the books, which ranged in publica- tion dates from 1800 to the present. were many rare books and some first editions which included dramas, fic- tions, anthologies, composition books, and old textbooks in history, spell- ing, arithmetic and English. One of the first editions on dis- play, while of late date, 1911, is val- uable because there was a small fir�t edition and it is illustrated beauti- fully. This is Shakespeare's A Mul summers Night's Dream illus- trated by Rackham. There were other first editions on display, some of them quite old. Most of the new books are editions beautifully illus- trated, the illustrators of which are as famous as the authors. Many Rare Books Among the old books displayed were a great many with fine ole sheepskin bindings, and upon look ing into them one found that thi very print is different. The letter looks peculiar to this generation as it is shaped somewhat like the let- ter f. Old books with richly dec- orated bindings and quaint book- out of date both in binding and in content, attracted attention. Many of these are valuable, not only be cause they are out of print and are rare, but because they were very popular in their day and throw light on the taste of the period. Copies of letters in long-hand, written by famous men, formed on of the most interesting sections of the exhibit. Some of these were in portfolio volumes and some are sep arate. Among them were letter from Thomas B. Maeauley, Benja- min Franklin. Thomas Kray, John Dryden, Queen Elizabeth, Edmund Spencer, Henry IV of France, and Richard Cobden. Magazines Among the magazines which (Please turn to page three) iaiis are well in progress for the ad annual High School Day h will be observed here April md which is expected by authori- ty draw at least two thousand �rs. event will also be a Campus I Jay for students here. Classes will be dismissed after the second period in order that everyone may partici- pate in the activities of the day. Under the direction of Mr. P. W. Picklesimer, students from each county have already organized as clubs with chairmen and other of- ficers. These county clubs are at the present functioning particularly in placing the program for High School Day before the seniors in their various counties, with the hope that this year more schools will be represented. On the fifteenth, these clubs will also act as specific hosts and hostesses to the high school sen- iors from their counties. Program The program for the day has been planned so that the visitors will be given an opportunity to see a large part of the college plant and also enjoy many of the recreational activ- ities that are a part of college life. The schedule is as follows: 10 00-10:30� Arrival and regis- tration of guests at Wright Build- ing. 10:30-11:30�Visitations on the campus. 11:30-11:45 � Assemble at city swimming pool and march to Wright Building auditorium. 11:45-12 :45�Program in audi- torium as follows: a. Music by the Wilson High School band. 2. Roll call of counties. (Each county is requested to have someone of its number ready to report the number of schools represented.) c. Welcome by President Meadows. d. Music by the college glee clubs. e. Announcements. f. Song: "Old North State" by entire gathering, led by Mr. Tabor, of the college, and accompanied by the Wilson High Schol band. 12 :50�Barbecue luncheon on the back campus. 1:40�Picture show in Austin Auditorium. 1:40-4:30 �- Dancing in Wright Auditorium. 3 :15�Baseball game on college athletic field.

You think any freshman could point out Ragsdale Hall with no difficulty? Well, listen to this tale. Recently a visitor here asked at the office in Cotten Hall for direc- tions to the men's dormitory. With the information in mind, he found the right dormitory, but unfor- tunately, he chose to enter the front door instead of the basement en- trance. How long the "Mystery Man" remained on the floor occu- pied by the teachers is still a ques- tion, but Miss Wilson will voucb for the fact that he did enter her room and ask, "Where's James ?" Miss Wilson Directs Miss Wilson, sensing that the man was searching for the men's quarters in the basement, directed him straight down the corridor, out of the end door, and to the left. Still confused, the unwelcome vis- itor went down the corridor and turned to the left. Instead of find- ing an exit he entered the room occupied by Miss McGee. Exactly what she told him is not known but evidently it was sufficient to get him out of the teachers' dormitory. He turned up next in the Infirmary.

On the contrarv he said, "the is often quite demoralizing and develops bad habits that will'never 1 e overcome. He condemned the whole student newspaper performance in most col- res a- utterly careless, heedless and irresponsible. At best it is so- ed 'activity; at its worst it is an example of exhibitionism that is almost pathological in some cases Naming that Prof. Hyde was correctly quoted. The Capital Times � astonished at this slap in the face administered to such excellent student cations as The Daily Cardinal. In our estimation The Cardinal is Sited, intelligent and informative. We have watched its perform- er many years, and we cannot agree that it deserves the brand � rly careless, heedless and irresponsible are all the more astounded at Prof. Hvd. Do you remember Helen Hayes as the wistful Maggie in "What Every Woman Knows"? "Charm?" she repeated, "why it's a kind of a bloom on a woman. It's the one thing if you have it you don't need anything else Many definitions of �harm we have heard, but I think this one of Sir James Barrie's is best of all, for if you have charm, you don't need anything else. Yet you can't explain it or put your fin- ger on it or hold it to a definition any more than you can a sense of humor or any other abstract, per- sonal quality. Whether you are so fortunate as to be born with charm or whether you must work to achieve it, you have in your early youth the things that make for this quality. A fresh young skin, clear contour lines, blight eyes�a personality to culti- vate which will make and keep you distinctive. Charm is not merely physical, you know; it is of the heart and the spirit. A trite saying but true, and a fact we cannot af- ford to ignore. First let's emphasize a few im- portant points on backgrounds for charm. Plenty of rest and sleep are essential. No matter how young you are you can't look charming when you look and feel tired. If you must be up late one night, retire an hour or two earlier the next night. Sleep with wide open win- dows. Then there's the well-groomed look that comes with the bath a day followed by a cooling shower and a quick rub. Another vital point is correct diet�another is exercise, setting-up exercises night and morn- ing, out doors at your favorite sport if any or long walks. Second, there's mental health. All the things 1 mentioned above will help make you physically charming of other conditions are in harmony. But every time you experience fear, anxiety, anger, envy, a certain poi- son is released that flows through the system. Skin blemishes and other ailments foreign to charm are likely to result. Avoid the mental state that induces these conditions. Form the habit of a happy, contented mind and you will radiate charm. "Be good, sweet maid" and you'll be charming. And be good to your skin. Remember that appearances count a great deal, particularly in making a good first impression. � THIS � COLLEGIATE WORLD (By Associated Collegiate Press) Counting sheep has long been a loyal method of confirmed insom- niasts for dropping off to sleep.

The journalism school ha- had more or less to say about the conduct of The Cardinal But here we have the director of that school delivering a blanket condemnation f the student newspaper field, and it is apparent that The Cardinal is not excepted. We wonder how much The Cardinal's militant editorial policy during B present school year stimulated Prof. Hyde to make his attack. Prof. is said to favor the type of university newspaper that sticks to and keeps clear of controversial issues. This year he is no doubt disappointed. The Capital Times does not maintain there is no room tor improvement in the student newspaper field. (There is also plenty room for improvement among the regular daily newspapers represented at the Inland Press convention.) We do maintain, however, that The Cardinal this year is doing a fine piece of work in crusading for student welfare, including adequate hous- ing fair student fees, and other issues vital to the interests of students. We believe that The Cardinal has been dignified, fair and honest in its presentation of matters that have been pretty well garbled by the daily press of this state. It is our conviction, too, that The Cardinal and student papers like it are serving a highly valuable purpose in giving j 1 Bpective newspapermen and women a conception of journalism higher than the purely commercial, business point of view. We an't agree with Prof. Hyde's most unkind remarks concerning the boys and girls who labor with head and heart to make the college newspapers of today. Wasn't Prof. Hyde, in his Inland Press Associ- ation speech, himself being just a bit "careless" and "heedless" about the g kx3 things in student publications? ROCKWELL EXPLAINS WHY COLLEGE STUDENTS MURDER ENGLISH LANGUAGE INDEX TO CHARACTER One of the best indexes to the thoughtfulness, school spirit, and even the character of a student body is the appearance of its campus. With the expenditure of only a little effort, it is possible to refrain from marring the beauty of our campus with candy wrappers, cups, orange peelings, and other small bits of trash. Perhaps it would be good for each member of the student body to resolve to be more careful in disposing of these things. There are many containers conveniently placed on the campus for this purpose. During this season of the year it is perhaps harder for us alwavs to k ep the campus clean, since we spend much more of our time outdoors. This, however, should be an incentive to make us keep it as attractive as possible. In this way the pleasure which we receive would be greatlv increased, because ours really would be a campus beautiful. At present, attempts are being made to further beautify the grounds by planting additional shrubbery.

In answer to your "why not?" Dr. Leo L. Rockwell, director of the school of languages and literature at Colgate University, will explain that it's the language's fault and not the student's. "English has at least four things the matter with it: first, it is used every day. No one expects students of algebra to go out and do their problems on the sidewalks, but English students are barely out of the classroom before they show what they haven't learned. "English as a language is one of the most treacherous of our social tools. Words change their almost every time they are used. "Students have to waste endless time learning the worst system of spelling in the Western world, so they haven't much time left for really important things. "Too many people know too much about English and what they know is wrong When a professor gets downright impatieut, you can usually tell he has exhausted all his resources. At least that was the situation of Dr. W. D. Funkhauser, professor of zoology at the University of Ken- tucky. It all happened when too many students signed up to take his course in heredity. Since this study is limited to only juniors and seniors, sophomores who had scrawled their names on the list, were scratched off. But even after all ineligibles were weeded out, the enrollment was well over 100. Something had to be done, felt Dr. Funkhauser, so he made this announcement at his first session : "I'll warn you students at the beginning that I'm a boring lec- turer. This class is made up of lec- tures entirely. The first half of the course is very dry and technical� with many scientific names. "The seating arrangements are very unsatisfactory. Most of you won't be able to see the board, and diagrams on the board are an im- portant part of all my lecutres. If you're nearsighted, there is little hope for you Interpreting creaking of seats as weakening, the professor continued much encouraged: "The grades are based entirely upon the hard examination at the end of the course. And you sink or swim. I have no mercy. Now do I see any volunteers who would be willing to drop the course?" No one stirred from his seat. By MARVIN COX (Associated Collegiate Press Cor respondent) Washington, D. C. � Down the years local police have been occa sionally called in to quell fights following football games. From time to time obstreperous athletes have been hauled in by the gen- darmes when they became too vio- lent in the process of breaking train- ing. Police intervention at college athletic contests has been a more or less accepted practice since the iays when football players wore beards. The amazing present, however, surpasses by far any prior otricia interference with college athletics. Now the United States government has stepped in through its Justice Department to crack down on state educational institutions which re- fuse to pay the prescribed Federa tax on admissions to athletic con- tests. The Bureau of Internal Revenue has requested the Department of Justice to enter suits against the University of Georgia, the Univer- sity of Iowa, the University of Mich- igan, the University of Minnesota, and the Georgia School of Technol- ogy- Several suits have already been instituted and the first round in one case was won down in Atlanta last December when a Federal judge ruled with the colleges. It is possible that the Nine Old Men of the Supreme Court will be ruling one of these days on a ques- tion of college athletics, a field which hitherto has been regarded as en- tirely within the province of town constables and city police. No report has been made, how- ever, on the availability of G-Men to track down the base villains who steal opponents' football signals, or kidnap freshmen to prevent their being pledged by rival fraternities. �2 1937 I m�22 love PstlUSs 285" POUND GUARD t �M BEHEMOTH PLAS GUAEft HAlGHT WSh �NTH�ST.MAm r. �'�- " J CAC.P kV (SW AJMTONC) FIVE With The FACULTY WHO SAID "IT'S A SIN TO TELL A LIE?" Milwaukee, Wis� (ACP)� It's not a sin to tell the kind of lie the Burlington, Wis Liars Club tells, simply because it isn't a lie. That is the gist of a recent lecture given by the Rev. Father Edward A. McGrath, S.J Assistant Pro- fessor of philosophy at Marquette University. "The essence of a lie is to speak seriously against your mind argued the "Munchausen-defender "These Burlington liars are not seriously stating anything against what they know to be the truth. Therefore, they are not liars In appreciation for the defense, President O. C. ("You're Another") Hulett awarded Father McGrath a membership card, which makes him ' a "full-fledged liar They wanted to interview New York City's ex-mayor, Jimmy Walker� did two Brown University freshmen.

"Yes "We're from the Brown Daily Herald spouted the duo. "We'd like an interview "Okey the ex-mayor answered. "Make a statement the rookie reporters suggested, while the Walkers stood and wondered. Jimmy was willing, however. "On what?" he asked. "Make a statement about Brown suggested the freshmen.

Full time, full paid pinch-hitters would be needed (or the real job would be available, if they DID re- tire) for professors who have passed the deadline, lawyers, doctors, sen- ators, editors, actors�the possibili- ties are limitless. Practically every recent graduate and those soon to graduate would have a chance of finding himself elected to the Sen- ate, or some other place, to fill the place of a septuagenarian who has either retired or requires a substi- tute. The "wrong-number" telephone gag that fraternity boys sometimes pull didn't stop a Birmingham Southern College coed for long. She had to speak with her enamored one and that was all there was to it. When the frat phone rang, the fellows gathered around. The answerer recognized the female voice and said: "This is the shoe shop, madam "I'm sorry. Wrong number she apologized and tried again. When the bell rang the second time, a cheery voice answered: "Your pressing shop speaking. What can we do for you?" "Wrong number she muttered and dialed doggedly again.

And speaking of Senators, a new inducement for college men to enter politics is the easy money that these statesmen are picking up by endors- ing cigarettes. One thousand dol- lars for a short paragraph certify- ing the superiority of a brand of cigarette is easier than money from home. Or at least many Senators think so. On this subject, which is now a burning (no pun intended) issue in Washington, these lines are offered: The Senate is in session, The members filled with glee The reason why is simple: A thousand bucks, you see. In the ornate Senate cloak-rooms, They fill their lungs with smoke, And exhale hundred dollar bills. No; this is not a joke. "Old Strikes make my brain work "I thrive on Lucky Golds "This cigarette saved the country, When it stopped our vicious colds The Senators sell endorsements While debating legislation; Their pay-off is a thousand rocks; But does this save the nation? DAILY KANSAN CELEBRATES TWENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY MR. J. R. GULLEDGE Mr. James K. Gnlledge, a rela- tively newcomer to the college fac- ulty, has been librarian of the col- lege since January 19.36. He is a native North I 'arolinian, his birthplace being in Anson County. His elementary and secondary ed- ucation were re- ceived at Albe- marle. N. C. He t h e n attended Weaverville Col- lege, Weaverville. N. C. Mr. Gulledge received his A.B. degree from huke University and his M.A. in Library Science at the I oiversity of Illinois. Mr. Gulledge's library experience has been varied and extensive. He has served as librarian at Texas A. and M. College, and assistant li- brarian, in charge of circulation at the University of Texas, Austin, 1 exas. In addition to this he has been assistant librarian at Louisi- ana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and librarian at Missis- sippi A. and M. College. At the University of Illinois, Urbana, Illi- nois, he acted as assistant in the loan department. In our own state he has held the position of librarian at North Carolina State College. At present he is a member of the North Carolina Library Association, and is a member ex-chairman of the college section committee. He has also held the office of secretary of this organization. In the American Library Association, of which he is now a member, he has served on the bookbinding committee. He is an ex-member of the Louisi- ant State Board for the Certification of Librarians and is a member of the North Carolina Education As- sociation. Mr. Gulledge's favorite hobby is hiking. He says that he also keenly enjoys chasing golf balls on the side. Although he likes the water and is not afraid of it in the least, he is not a good swimmer. His travels have been confined mainly to the territory east of the Mississippi, through which he has traveled widely. As he puts it, he has strayed over into Texas and Mis- souri numerous times and into Can- ada once. He declared that his lat- est trip of any significance was to Grimesland. This rich experience in his profession has well prepared him for work in this field. Although he has been here only one year he is well known by many students who admire him for his efficient, consid- erate, and helpful manner in the library. Lookin' Over the Campus With C.

Jammed with congratulatory messages and his- torical stories and photos, the issue was of great interest to both stu- dent and faculty readers. Brilliant was the editorial note, however, which placed The Kansan in the true newspaper position: "But enough of this; a newspaper cannot look back for long.

The president of the Young No More Pay Guarantees To Visiting Athletic Teams At Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, Md. � (ACP) � By abolishing paid admissions to all athletic games, authorities at Johns Hopkins University are assuring the avoidance of the evils of com- mercialism in collegiate sports. No longer will Johns Hopkins "pay guarantees to visiting teams nor accept guarantees when its teams play away from home The purpose of this new program is to spread the benefits of athletic participation to all students instead of to a "mere handful' under a high-prassure, winning-team, gate receipt system, it was announced. Using its own resources, the uni versity will finance and encourage both intercollegiate and intramural athletics. providing "effective coaching instruction and adequate sports equipment. "The university, in effect reads the announcement, "has placed athletics at the level which they would occupy if in the realm of col- legiate sports there were no such thing as a recruited football team and no gold mine of gate receipts to. be tapped Admission charges will be aban- doned next October. At that time the university will issue without charge admission cards to all sports events. In the distribution, alumni, after students, will be given prefer- ence and others applying will re- ceive tickets as long as they last. Team guarantees will be dis- pensed with "as soon as existing commitments are absolved The announcement explains that this new policy is "a logical extension of athletic policy introduced at Johns Hopkins several years ago Table manners are a part of the basketball curriculum at Marquette University.

The exhibit was a collection of books, manuscripts, magazines, and letters owned by various individ- uals in the college faculty and in the town, who most generously let the English Club have the loan of them for a week. Copies of type notes on old and rare books are given to the visitors by the guides. Dr. Lueile Turner, Miss Mary H.

Bill Holland, last year's Pirate star hurl, r and voted "lie of the beat mound aces in the Coastal Plain League, is expected to set the pace. Ed Wells is also a holdover from last year, and will probably see action frequently. "Duke" Tharrington, Kelly Martin, Roebuck, and Cain are all new men and are candidates for the pitching position. Thus far. Shelton has been work- ing at shortstop, Ridenhour at sec- ond base, Stowe at third, and Fere- bee, number one catcher. The first base position is still unfilled with Best and Wilkerson both seeking the assignment. Hoot" Gibson is the only regular outfielder held over from last year, but there are nine new candidates trying for outfield berths. These are: Hartsell, Noe, Pratt, James, Harris, Archie Martin, Venters, and Williams. Otis Powell, a freshman from Danville High, will play in either the outfield or infield, to be settled later.

Over eleven hundred sen- iors were on the campus for the day, many of whom expressed a real enjoyment of the event. They were conducted on a tour of the campus buildings and grounds, assembling in the Robert 11. Wright auditorium to be welcomed officially by Presi- dent Leon R. Meadows and to enjoy getting acquainted with each other and a number of the officials of this college. The students here who par- ticipated in the exercises were de- lighted with the reactions of the high school seniors to the various phases of college life as they observed it. The lake, the athletic events, the outdoor barbecue, and the social hour at the Wright building were particularly enjoyed. Former students who are now teaching in high school enjoyed re- turning to their Alma Mater and meeting old friends: a number of the high -chool students who were visitors here on last year's High School lay are enrolled as students this year and are enthusiastically looking forward to helping make this one as delightful and successful as last year's.

For a comprehensive list of these students, it is sug- gested that you turn to the Directory found in the back of the College Catalogue. All students are expected to report back here for work on March 31. Undergraduates Cast Eyes GUILF0RD CHOIR An "electric eye" detects late- comers to physics classes at St. Thomas College.

Toward Hollywood Movies (Continued from oage one) pictures should regard them as an ultimate, not an immediate future. In movieland phraseology the best way to "crash" the gates is through displayed proficiency in another field. If you are interested in acting try the little theaters or, perhaps, in the long run, Broadway, and if you are good studio scouts will see you. Actors and actresses with a stage background stand a much better chance of a contract than the mis- guided pioneers who want to begin as spear carriers in mob scenes. And writers, keep on writing and hope that you will have a story pub- lished in the pulps, then possibly in the slick magazines, and when you have landed in the Post, Collier's, or similar high calibre periodicals you are in a position to command the interest of studio scenario editors and producers. Or, of course, if you are lucky enough to have a play produced you jump into that posi- tion in one jump, but having a play produced is no easy matter � for young or old alike. Newspaper experience is the step- ping stone into t' e publicity and exploitation fields; in fact newspaper work is an excellent preparation for any of the creative lines. News- papers provide a cross-section of contemporary life, and it is with mirroring contemporary life that motion pictures are primarily con- cerned. The saying "As modern as tomorrow's newspaper" is synony- mous with "As modern as tomor- row's movie Every now and then one hears of talent hunts on different campuses for likely prospects for the silver screen or of contests with the same end in view, but one rarely hears of their permanent results. The truth of the matter is that there aren't many. It is unfair to say that the studios conduct these periodic searches solely for publicity because studios are sincerely interested in new faces and new talent, but some- how or other they usually have to wait until the proving ground of the stage, radio, or journalism has tested the prospects. The motion picture industry re- spects and appreciates a good aca- demic background, but the industry wants something more, too. It wants four years of scholarly pursuits tem- pered with a bit of life and and worldly experience.

The arrangement of "Going Home" was very beautiful and was one of the favorites of the hour. The spirituals, "O Holy Lord" and "Were You There?" gave the American touch to the program. This is the ninth season that Guil- ford College has been sending out its a Cappella choir, which was one of the first in the South and ranks very high among student choirs. The members of the choir, Dr. Weiss says, are not specialists in music but are chosen from the rank and file of students, most of them getting little training in music except in the choir. Only three in the group here yesterday are music majors. There are more than sixty in the full choir, but only half of them, one bus load, go on concert trips at a time, one-half going one time and the other, the next. The students never miss any classes. They have engagements for Sundays for near- by places and make longer tours during vacations. Next week, dur- ing their five-day spring vacation, they will make their annual north- em trip, when they will sing in Washington City, Wilmington, Delaware, at Princeton University ; and other places. Among the Sun- days for which they are engaged later this spring are High Point. Sanford, and Southern Pines. This is the second year Dr. Weiss has had charge of the choir. He came to this state directly from Kansas and before that had taught in Iowa and Ohio. The two I'ni- versities from which he received the most of his training are North- western and Columbia.
