sure of, that point because they
employed none of their utterly
infallible means of making
known their disapproval. A
large audience enjoyed hearing
a clever, if inconsequential, play
well done. We are glad Mr.
Smith gambled. We hope he
will do it again.
With translations as ubiqui
tous, prolific, and just generally
common as they are, there is
little point in having a reading
knowledge of a language. But
with , international commerce,
travel, and education, there is a
great deal of point in being able
to speak the various languages.
And there is only one better way
of learning to speak it than by
hearing it spoken. Yes, we hope
air. Smith will gamble again.

Sunday Reading
Room Hours
Several times this year we
have heard certain students en
rolled in the school of commerce
voice the complaint that the com
merce reading room is closed on
Sundays, thereby depriving them
of the use of the library at times
when study is most convenient.
It is the contention of those who
are advocating that the reading
room observe the same hours as
the main library that very little
expense would be involved in the
innovation and that commerce
students would then enjoy the
same privileges of students in
the school of liberal arts.
It seems that the tendency in
many' courses, especially courses
in economics and commerce, is
away from standard text-books
and toward a rather prodigious
amount of reading from various
outside sources. In order to ob
tain this necessary reading ma
terial the student has to utilize
the facilities of the commerce li
brary quite extensively, and he
pays a small fee for this usage
in those courses in which such
extensive use of library ma
terials is necessary. In the light
of this fee, many students con
tend that they are due certainly
the same privileges in the use of
the reading room as in the use
of the main library.
We wish it clearly understood
in the beginning that we do not
demand that the commerce read
ing room be kept open on Sun
days, for there is the possibility
that too much additional expense
would be involved. However, if
the library can be kept open
without straining reserves, we
think those who are voicing the
complaint have just reason to do
so. B. M. v
Wednesday Night's
Performance: Con
Another time we students
have been "sucked-in" at the
Carolina theatre. Wednesday
night when we paid o see a pic
ture in French, we were miser
ably disappointed. How the
Paramount producers can release
such a fraud is beyond our imagination.
Out of the whole cast there
were not but four French actors
at the most. Maurice Chevalier,
Claudette Colbert, the landlady,
and the man who sat at Cheva
lier's left at the boarding house
table were excellent and the
French they spoke was beauti
ful, but the others were abso
lutely ridiculous.
Ronnie did not even know his
lines, much less know how to
speak French. In one place
which was particularly notice
able he said to Barbara, "Vous
etes amoureux" for "Vous etes
amoureuse." All the way
through he was a shame to the
French language.
We have heard that the show
went over big in France as one
of the first sound pictures shown
in that country, but this can not
possibly be true. .They might
see it as a version of American
pronunciation of French, but be
fore it was a week old it would
be booed and hissed off the
stage.
The best French actor on the
screen is without a doubt
Maurice Chevalier, and Claudette
Colbert is almost as good. We
all admire the charm and beauty
of the language and acting of
these two, but we can not appre
ciate it when they are surround
ed by such abominable understudies.
For better results the Para-
mount-Publix corporation would
do well to pick their French
actors from the French students'
of this University. J. R.
Which reminds me that II. E.
above referred to marveled over
the fact that there was radio ser
vice in every room in the New
Yorker Hotel fourteen hours a
day. The same thing is true in
a number of dormitories on our
campus, the difference being that
it is impossible to shut out the
blamed things when you want to
study.

Someone makes the assertion
that after the Duke Kentucky
game, betting on Duke to defeat
the Tar Heels was at its height.
As far as I was able to learn,
that was mostly talk. I heard of
a great deal of fourteen point
money being offered, but some
how one could never find just
who was offering it. Now, don't
think that I am one to judge the
amount of confidence a school
has in its team by the way the
students bet, I am only lament
ing the fact that when point
money is talked on Duke against
Carolina it is usually just talk.
I expect to see an editorial de
nouncing this paragraph in
either the Daily. Tar Heel or the
Duke paper. All of which would
go to show the good work which
John Lang and his "Federation"
have done.
Went to a bridge party given
for the Chi Ohs. not long ago
and was fortunate enough to
have as my last partner a girl
who had her heart set on get
ting the "Booby" while I was
well on my way to a decent score.
That's my alibi and I'm going to
stick to it.

There would have been a good
fire at theChi Phi house the
other night but the alarm was
put in too early. If people would
only be a little more considerate
and let the fire get a little start
before notifying our , honorable
Fire Fighters, we might have a
little excitement occassionally.
Besides the Demon Fire should
be given a few minutes handi
cap in order to give it a sport
ing chance against the men' in
the helmets.
The Daily Tar Heel headlines:
"Scientists Conducting Quest
For Cause Back of Oiliness."
May I suggest that eight-thirties
might be the reason. (I'm sorry.
Let it drop. Let it drop. )
"An unassuming little Army
cadet" missed his point against
Notre Dame in Chicago Satur
day, but rumor hath it that he
did not fail to make his point in
New York Sunday.
So one of our neighboring in
stitutions has organized a "Vir
gin Club." We have no fear that
such an organization will ever
become a menace on our inno
cent little campus. Should such
a movement ever be attempted,
it undoubtedly would die in its
eligible members.
Oh, dear, oh dear, I can hardly
wait for the "Love Feast" Saturday.
