PLAYMAKERS ARE
BACK FROM TRIP
Large Crowds Attend Perform
ances on Trip Through East
ern North Carolina.
y
The Carolina Playmakers have
returned from their tour of the
eastern part of the state where
they have presented Oliver
Goldsmith's classic old comedy,
She Stoops to Conquer to capaci
ty audiences in every town and
at the matinee in Durham it was
necessary to turn people away
The tour was one of the most
successful of any of the tours in
recent years, the towns were
near enough together so that no
long jumps were necessary. The
troupe was not late for a single
performance and financially the
tour was a huge success.
The1 Playmakers have the dis
tinction of drawing the largest
crowd ever assembled in the
Elizabeth City high school au
ditorium, it being necessary for
additional rows of seats to be
added to accomodate the crowd.
Murfreesboro was awarded
the $50 prize for having the
- largest audience in proportion
to the number of inhabitants of
the place. ' People came from a
distance of sixty miles to see the
performance. Edenton was a
clcose second with the size of
the audience. .
The Playmakers were, enter
tained in every town and due to
the fact that every member on
the tour gained weight it is nat
ural to assume that they, were
very well fed. The organiza-
ions and people providing spec
ial entertainment in the towns
were: Miss Helen Leatherwood
entertained at a dance 'at the
Prinee Charles in Fayetteville;
Mrs. George Butler entertained
the Playmakers after the per
formance at her home in Clin
ton; R. J. Madry entertained th$
Playmakers after the perform
ance at his home in Scotland
Neck; and the Kiwanis Club of
Scotland gave them a turkey
dinner; in Murfreesboro the
. party had lunch at Chowan col
lege; in Edenton a Rotarian lun
cheon was given in honor of the
Playmakers and they were also
taken on a sight tour of the
historical places in and near
Edenton; in Elizabeth City' a
Rotarian luncheon was given for
the Playmakers; and in New
Bern a dance was given in their
honor at the Elks club.
The towns played on tour
were Durham, Fayetteville, Clin
ton, Nashville, Scotland Neck,
Murfreesboro, Edenton, Eliza-
beth City, Washington, New
Bern, and Hillsboro. -
Why? Chapel Monday
Freshmen and Sophs Will Give Rea
sons for Their Being Here.
In Chapel Monday morning, a
survey will be made of "the
Freshman and Sophomore
classes on the following points:
"Why you came to college,"
"Why you came to the Univer
sity of North Carolina in . pref
erence to some other college,"
and "Why you registered in the
particular school at the Univer
sity in which you now are."
A survey has been partly made
in reference to the last point, and
the results proved very inter
esting to the authorities. The in
formation secured Monday will
be used as a basis of a report
from the Dean of Students' office.

The Carolina Rifle Club an
nounces the deepening of its in
door gallery range. This gallery
range is situated under Memorial
Hall and may be used at any
time. It has an advantage over
the outdoor range in that it may
be used during bad weather or
at night.
The U. S. Government has al
ready.; promised an issue of gal
lery rifles which will be received
before Christmas. The regular
rules of the National Rifle Asso
ciation will apply to all practices
in the indoor range.
Both the regular Carolina
rifle team and the gallery team
will get their winter training on
this indoor range in preparation
for the National Intercollegiate
matches next spring. During
the winter several matches will
be held with N.-C. State - and
other schools.
Opening of this new range and
the generosity of" the govern
ment in furnishing supplies make
possible the admission of a num
ber of new members into the
Rifle Club. All interested in
joining should see Burnham Col
burn, Alpha Chi House, or Hay
wood Parker, Sigma Delta
House, at once; the initiation
fee will probably be raised after
Christmas.
Co-eds also are urged to join,
as the officers have found it pos
sible to arrange for many Girls'
Intercollegiate Matches during
the coming year. ' "
Plans are under way now for
the organization of two pistol
teams, high-power revolvers and
gallery pistols. V
Electrical Engineers
Hear Professor Lear
Speaks on "Illumination" at Regular
Meeting. Thursday Night. '
The Carolina' chapter of the
American Institute of Electri
cal Engineers held its last meet
ing of the fall quarter, Thurs
day, in Phillips Hall. Professor
J. E. Lear, of the School1 of En
gineering, talked to the society
on "Illumination," and Mr. ;T.
B. Smiley devoted a few words
comparing the eye with the ear.
Professor Lear, in his talk,
dealt chiefly with the effects of
light rays, and of various color
rays, on the human eye. He ex
plained how colors are transmit
ted through the eye to the brain,
and took up the question of how
the illumination engineer,
through certain types of illum
ination, produces the desired
color effects upon the eye. Mr.
T. B. Smiley gave a short talk
discussing the question of illum
ination also, comparing the ef
ficiancy of the human eye in tak
ing in the light rays with the
ear in receiving sound waves.
The meetings of the local
chapter are held every other
Thursday night in Phillips Hall.
President H. L. Coe announces
that several good programs are
in store for the meetings next
quarter, the society haying been
promised several electrical films
by the Westinghouse Electric
Company.

times in four years, starting in
1923, have they been rewarded
by winning the eastern cham
pionship, but twice they were
forced to return without the su
preme laurels. The question
now is whether the old seasoned
state , championship winners
from the west can again repel
the easterners who have been
consistently knocking at the door
of the state championship, but
have not as yet crossed the
threshhold.
Individual Stars
One rather interesting phase
of this afternoon's contest will
be the performances staged by
two rival football toters. ( Cap
tain Harry Frazier of Sanford is
generously recognized as the
best ball carrier in the east,
while Charlotte has a lad nam
ed Cook, who is acclaimed the
best backfield player in the west.
When King meets King!
Coaches
. Sanford is coached by Parks
who has held her coaching reins
for a number of years. prac
tically every player on his team
learned football under "Colonel'
Parks as he is affectionately
called by his players. Charlotte
has "Big Jacck" Caldwell, for
mer Duke fullback, and Gullick
son, of the Springfield Y. M. C.
A. college, to guide her destiny.
Huge Crowd
The largest crowd ever to wit
ness a high school game in the
state will more than likely
swarm into the stands of Em
erson field today. Charlotte is
sending down a special train,
and numerous others are coming
by auto. Sanford has always
had an impressive delegation
that' follows their team, and to
day's turnout will be an excep
tion only in that more than us
ual will be here.
A Mr. Mason of Charlotte has
arranged to send down a thirty
piece band, the property of
Greensboro high school, and this
band, coupled with Professor T.
Smith McCorkle's University
bands, is going to present e
nough worth while music to lend
a tinge of interesting color to
the game. ,
The . officials who will handle
the game are as follows : J. P.
Major of Woffard College, ref
eree; Captain J. R. Boatwright
of Woffard, umpire; James N.
Ashemore of Carolina, head
linesman.

THATS the way P. A. talks to you in the bowl
of a pipe. This great national gloom-chaser
stabs the darkest clouds with a ray of sunshine.
Buy a tidy red tin. of Prince Albert today and
see. Tamp a load of this friendly tobacco into
your jimmy-pipe and light up.
Cool as a sub-cellar. Sweet as the breath of
fresh-cut violets. Fragrant in the tin and fra
grant as you smoke it. Never a tongue-bite or
a throat-parch. So mild you can hit it up from
sun-up to sun-down, yet with a body that satisfies
completely.
There's more philosophy in a pipe-load of
Pw A. than in the average Doctor's thesis. No
matter what brand you are smoking now, you
don't know how much your jimmy-pipe can
mean to you until you pack it with good old
Prince Albert. Get started now. , t,
