HN'S HAND-PICKED PERFOIlIiMS
Mm AND MAS K SET THE FLOOR
BOARDS QUIVERING; BAILEY IN LEAD
"Mum's the Word" rehearsals con
tinue to grow hotter 'n hoter as fast
moving music and eccentric move
ments of the musical comedy, become
second nature to the members o the
cast. Nothing drags, nothing looks
weak; it all snaps through with the
spirit of a well-bounced rubber ball
being chased by a fox terrier.
Howard Bailey, the leader, has re
turned from the Playmakers tour to
add his sparkle to the shining atmos
phere of youth and romance.
Every song, every dance, every
tune, is' fire-new, and Al Kahn's
hand-picked boys and girls certainly
know how to set the floor boards
quivering. Yesterday's rehearsal was
worth missing a fireman's jamboree
to And only a rehearsal at that!
"Boys of Tri Beta" is an opening
chorus that stirs up the blood and
gets it prepared for what's coming;
well peppered , caviar so to speak.
"Drop a Blackball" is undoubtedly
the hottest all male skit in the show.
In it Andy Mcintosh and the, six
Beta Beta Beta boys show what a
bunch of good men can do, and they
can certainly scrape that floor.
"Seventeen Jewels, on a Fat Man's
Chest" is sung by Bobby 'Hedgecock
and ifs one of the cleverest singing
numbers we've heard . anywhere.
One of the biggest singing and
dancing numbers takes place when
Andy, Bobby, the girl's chorus, and
the men's chorus, all troop out to
cling several types of welkin ringers
in "Make Yourself at Home." The
whole gang gets goin' good here, and
it's one of these numbers whose
spirit spreads like wildfire through
an audience.
"Co-ed" is a unique thing! It's
sung by a special vocal trio composed
of Ann Lawrence, Stephanie Moore,
and Olivia McKinne, aided and abet
ted by Frank Jacocks, past master of
euphony.
Another big attraction of the pro
duction it is in this that Peggy
Bragaw, late of the Ziegfeld Follies,
shows her stuff for the newest Wigue
and Masque production. Can she
step, can she gyrate, and has she got
form! .Well, whatever your expecta
tions of a Follies girl are, this girl
is due to fulfill them. She's simply
a dancing whiz.
"The Dirty Half a Dozen" is an
which Bobby Hedgecock and the girls
chorus collaborate in doing some
outstanding character number m
- v
droll and unusual things. The gym
nastics of this skit prove conclusive
ly that Carolina could put out an ex
cellent co-ed track squad. The girls
to be the hottest rhythm dances ever
In the next one, "If I . Were the
Master of Dreams", Howard Bailey
and Phoebe Harding are doing some
really wonderful vocal work.
And now "Sitting m . the Moon
light", just about the biggest thing
in the whole show. There are special
tv dances by both girl's and - men's
choruses which include what every
one who has seen them pronounces
of it is by Bailey and Harding, and
seen arond here. The singing part
of it is by Baily and Harding, and
the men's chorus does a very difficult
tap number. " The boys have sur
prised Producer Kahn in completely
mastering this complicated part.
About the time a fellow thinks this
gang has left nothing undone in the
way ofdancing, in bob Andy Mcin
tosh and Elizabeth Barber in "I
Gotta Have Someone to Love", and
pull off a whole new set of amazing
triple-twists up and down the stage,
the most eccentric skit on the pro
gram.
There are four non-singing char
acter parts which are filled by veteran
actors. Block Bryson as the Dean is
superb, Mary Dirnberger is doing
some excellent work as Mrs. "Willough
by, and Art Sickles is admirably ac
comnlishine the difficult feat of
doubling in two v wide-apart roles,
college youth and an old man.
Phoebe Harding, who sings and is
leading lady 'continues a brilliant
dramatic career which she began
while at St. Mary's, where she was
elected Mav Queen because of her
golden tresses in spite of the fac
that she is a striking brunette.
BEGIN ACTIVE WORK TO
INCREASE UNIVERSITY
LOYALTY ALUMNI FUND
Continued from page one)
while this is one of the primary
functions, the directors are looking
to a larger policy. They hope to
build up a feeling among the alumni
and. students that there is, a mutual
obligation for them to give as much
as they are -able to the University.
Up to 1890 the support of the Uni
versity depended almost entirely
upon endowments and gifts from pri
vate individuals. Then started the
great drive to have the state assume
its. just share in financing this in
stitution of higher learning. In the
intensity of the drive for state help
the need of private support was neg
lected. As a result the contributions
from the public treasury have stead
ily increased while the help from
other sources has remained almost
stationery except for the times it has
fallen back.
In 1916 Dr. Graham, then presi
dent or the university, started a
move to revive the Loyalty Fund.
Through his efforts a start was
made. Due to the interruption of
the War and to Dr. Graham's death,
the work was dropped and noth
ing further was done for it until
1924 when the present move was
started.
The purpose of the Loyalty Fund
i is not to increase the University in
size, not to pay the ordinary running
expenses, nor to put in permanent
improvements which the state should
finance, but to provide a finer and
more excellent University. The in
eome will be used for such purposes
as financing the Kenan professor
ship foundation, and Kenan .Memorial
Stadium, the collection of Southern
Historical material, the school of fine
arts, adequate endowment to bring
into full usage the new facilities of
the new library building, graduate
fellowships, " undergraduate loan
funds, a chapel, and an auditorium.
v These and other projects of similar
magnitude will cost from a minimum
of a quarter million to a maximum of
2 million dollars each. Thus the Loy
alty fund contemplates financing
things above the "bread and butter
requirements of the University.
Not only will an effort be made to
secure help from the Alumni, but a
program will be launched o educate
the students along -this line so that
when they get out of school there wil
be instilled in them the propriety of
contributing to his fund. -At
present there is an officially re
ported $40,000 in insurance made to
the Loyalty Fund; it is known tha
another $40,000 exists. .

Due to the fact that the office of

that membership on the Student Ac

not elective. Membership in the body
is on an automatic basis. Thirty

activities on the campus become mem
bers immediately after the spring

The Campus Elections Committee
is particularly desirous of having, a
large vote cast at the coming spring
elections, as a representative list of
officers can be secured only on the
basis of a large vote. Because bal
lotting is to be done in two places this
year the time it will take to vote will
be negligible.

that the United States government is
capable of handling the hydro-electric
power situation of the country, and
that corruption in private enterprise
necessitates public intervention and
consequent ownership and operation.
The main contention of the Ken
tucky team was that the American
public is not ready for public owner
ship and operation of the hydro
electric plants.
The same debate was held on Mon
day night before an out of town
audience, and on Tuesday night it
was debated again before a town
audience.
The debating program with the
University of Kentucky will be closed
by a debate tonight before a Univer
sity of Kentucky audience. The first
three debates with Kentucky were pre
liminaries to the main event of to
night. There were, no decisions on
these debates as the University of
Kentucky opposes the idea of de
