No. 58
STATEMENT TO THE STU
DENT BODY.
I wish to congratulate the
memben of the German Club
on the adoption of the pledge
designed to eliminate drinking
at dances.
Dances at commencement,
are, in every real respect, on
precisely the same basis as
dances during the college year,
and it is needless to say that
the same code of conduct
should he observed. I desire,
therefore, to say that the Uni
versity, in order to lend its full
support to the movement
among the students which
prompted the action, will ex
pect that every student shall
pledge himself for the com
mencement dances as for any
other series.
H. W. Chase,
President.

VERY SUCCESSFUL SEASON
TO
BE SCENE OF FINAL HOPS
Plans Made for the Commencement
Dances Which Begin Wed
nesday, June 14th.
Just about this time of the year the
hearts of social Carolina are forced to
think, and dream of the finals, and well
they should for it has come to pass in
this our year of grace 1922 that the
commencement balls of the University
have become known throughout the
South as almost without parallel.
This year's dances promise to far
outstrip any ever held in Chapel Hill
in gaity, music, dancing, and general
merry making. The farfamed Weyder
meyer Saxaphone Orchestra of Hunting
ton, W. Va., has been contracted for,
and will be present with its very best,
an eight piece orchestra, two pianos,
uid the most carefully selected harmony
musicians in the South.
Swain Hall will be used f&T the
dances, but when Mr. Winder of Dur
ham, who is known to be one of the
"best interior decorators in the South
gets through with it, it will be impossi
ble to believe that it was ever referred
to as Swine Hall, for Mr. Winder says
he will do his best to make this the job
of his career. The flow ,is the biggeBt
problem but by the time it has gone
through the process outlined for it byj
Ike Thorpe it will be as good as any
ball room in the State. Hot weather
nvill be combated by a veritable merry
go around of electric fans that will
make it seem like the top of Mount
Mitchell in May.
The best and prettiest girls of the
South will be here, for if Carolina has
nothing else , the students most certain
ly have a keenly developed taste for
beauty. There will also be girls here
from almost every state in the union
if rumors bear any truth.
The ball managers for this year are
completing their plans and from con
versation with them it would seem
that they are putting their utmost into
the thing and with such capable men
and such a capable leader as Ike Thorpe
the students this year have every right
to expect the best.
"Ike" Thorpe is Chief Ball Manager
and the following are his assistants
from the senior class: "Chess" Wood
all, "Woody" Williams, "Doug" Haul
er, and "Chappie' 'Lee. "Monk"
McDonald and "Press" Edwards are
assistants from the Junior class.
For the first time this year the fresh
man will be allowed to throw aside their
veil of freshness and enter the realm
of sophistication. There will be no dis
tinction made between them and the
upper classmen at the dances. The

The business and organized work of
the senior class came to a close last
Saturday evening at a banquet in Swain
Hall when permanant class officers were
elected and the class gift determined.
. The offcers elected are as follows: J.
A. McLean, president; "Lefty" Wil
son, vice president; L. J. Phipps, sec
retary; and M. W. Nash, treasurer.
The first vote was by, ballot and the
election of one of the two highest men
was determined by standing vote. For
president the candidates boiled down
to Jacobi and McLean, and McLean
won out by a fairly large majority.
Jim Phipps and E. M. Sweetman tied
for secretary and this had to be broken
the next day by a ballot cast by all
members of the class including those
who were absent from the banquet,
Phipps won out by a four vote majority,
It has not been customary for the
class to elect the .permanent vice-president
at this time, but by a vote this
precedent was broken, and Wilson was
elected.
The class adopted the class gift pro
posed by T. L. Warren, chairman of
the gift committee. The class of '22
is to install a scholarship to be given
to some worthy self-help students.
Each member of the class is to pay $25
within the next five years making the
scholarship amount to $5,000.
Interesting and able speeches were
made by Dr. Edwin Greenlaw and R.
D. W. Conner with responses from G.
B. Porter and W. E. Horner. These
men introduced by Irwin Oestreicher
and F. A. Grissett.

The new members of the Golden
Fleece were initiated Saturday night;
or rather during the small hours of
Sunday morning. Sunday evening the
old and new members were entertained
at a dinner given by Dean Bradshaw.
Dean Bradshaw served as tonstmaster,
and everyone present was called upon
for a brief talk. . The new members i
wore called upon for their impressions
of the institution. Bailey Lipfert gave
a short talk directed to tho new men,
in which he outlined the purpose and
history of the Golden Fleece.

At the meeting of the German Club
Monday afternoon, one of the most
vital problems now facing the student
body, that of drinking at the dances
was discussed. The club adopted its
first constitution of which one of the
articles stated that each member of the
German Club would henceforth be re
quired to sign a pledge card stating
that he would not partake of any in
toxicants after six hours before the
beginning of the dunce. This action
by the club is a distinct movement of
its own and is run in no way connected
with the workings of the student coun
cil. This 'movement has received the san
ction of another powerful organization
on tho campus. The Invisible Order of
the Stygians, and the mysterious hand
writing displayed on the walls of
Chapel Hill has announced approval of
the movement as follows:
"From Impenetrable Stygian Dark
ness It Belched forth Trailing Clouds
of Glory Unknown to Humankind.
"The fraternities have inaugurated
a movement to abolish drinking at
Carolina dances.
"The Invisible Order of Stygians
CHAMPIONS the .movement. Bespect
for YOUR sister, respect for MY sister,
COMMON DECENCY demands that you
champion this movement."

Charged With Prostitution Frances

of Evidence but Pays Costs.
The Carolina Playmakers gave their
first presentation of folk plays in the
open air last Saturday night. This
initial attempt took place at Salem
College, in Winston-Salem before
very large audience of students and
townspeople. The audience was much
larger than was expected because Sat
urday night was the big night at the
Bedpath Chautauqua which was runn
ing in Winston-Salem at this time.
But other attractions were not the
only contenders for the attention of
the fickle populace a flock of freight
trains sought persistently to drown out
the voices of the actors, while a young
tornado tried every few minutes to
blow the rather flimsily constructed
stage off . the lawn.
'However the Tar Heel troupe won
the approval of the spectors, for accord
ing to the Winston-Salem Journal they
"more than measured up to the ex
pectations of Winston-Salem people."
The plays presented were: "The
Miser," "In' Dixon's Kitchen," and
"Trista. " These plays were present
ed on the second state tour last fall
and are well known in Chapel Hill,
having been presented here twice.
The acting in all three plays was
unsually good and it is hard to pick
any outstanding star, however Anthony
Combs deserves especial credit for his
work as Wash Lucas, the Miser. In
the comedy G. V. Denny, and Mary
Yellot played the parts of the two
young lovers very realistically. Kath-
erino Batts as Trista in the play of
that name gives, perhaps, the most pol
ish example of acting presented by
any amateur actress in the state.

here, Miss Emilie Rose Knox of

linist in America, held a large and ap
preciative , audience spell-bound for
'.se'veral hours on last Tuesday evening
in Memorial Hall. Each of the four
teen selections which she rendered
brought round after round of applause
and many encoTes. After the program,
Miss Knox went out upon the porch of
Memorial Hall in answer to many Caro
lina yells which the students gave for
her and there played , ninny popular
songs which the students called for,
among which were "Annie Laurie,"
"Long Long Trail" and tho Universi
ty hymn ' ' Hark the Sound. "
Chapel Hill has never before received
an artist with greater enthusiasm than
Miss Knox last Tuesday. Having been
to the Hill twice before Miss Knox 's
womlroful ability and charming person
ality were well-known among both the
students and townspeople, and she re
ceived a royal welcome. Miss Knox
is equaally pleased with the University.
"This is the dearest little old univer

The purpose of this organization is
to produce, at least once a year, an

It is similar to the "Triangle Club,"
the "Paint and Powder Club," the
