(EDITOR'S NOTE: The following
article is the result of a survey of the
structural qualities of edifices on the
campus conducted by Dr. William F.
Prouty, of the geology department.)
By W. F, Prouty
The materials of construc-
tion found in the various Uni-
vprsitv buildinc-a nn tho Mmras
terest to many laymen.
From the earliest construe
tion on the campus in the Old
East building in 1793, to the
present, , there have been used
materials of , markedly different
types for the four different
building periods.
Such differences are. to be ex
pected with construction periods
far separated in time and under
different managements. ,vThe ar-
chitectural differences are per-
haps more at variance than the
materials of construction.
Throughout its history the
University , has never been ex
travagant in the materials , used
in its buildings. In the early j
days of poor transportation the.
materials close at hand were uti-
lized almost exclusively, and
during the later periods a large""'
portion of the building mater-
ials has also been of relatively
local character. In all perioutr,
but especially in more recent
years, a small amount of orna
mental stone has been used.
Thus, there is here on the cam
pus a fairly good "museum" of
building and other ornamental
stones
Campus Osculation Experts Give
Opinions On Question Of Kissing
"Kiss - verb - transitive to
touch or press with the lips, as
a mark of greeting, farewell,
forgiveness, etc."
It was the "etc." in Mr. Web
ster's otherwise uninspired def
inition that gave rise to a recent
inquiry into what has long been
one. of the most comprehensive
courses ons the campus Oscula
tion 1-2-3.
Twelve Interviewed
The twelve students who made
the dean's list in this major
course displayed virtually as
much oscillation on the subject
in question as osculation on the
subjects in arms. In fact, these

Edifices on Campus Conducted
Show Markedly Different
Different Periods.
-
The group of buildings con
structed in the pre-Civil War
period are much alike in both
architecture and materials of
construction. These buildings
nclude : Old East, Person, South,
Gerrard, Old West, Smith, New
East, New West. Most of these
buildings have a foundation and
trim of ricn brown - Triassic
sandstone which came from the
University quarry located about
two miles from the University
and near the Raleigh road. The
red brick used in the buildings
was made from clay pits on the
University, lands or close by
areas, une oi tne ciay pits ana
brick yards, according to Pro
fessor Collier. Cobb and Profes
sor McCorkle, was near the
present Chemistry . building.
Rumor has it that some of the
brick used in the construction of
these earlier buildings, especial
ly Old East and South buildings,
came from England, but there
seem to be no facts to support
this rumor.
Although the Triassic Red
Sandstone is relatively
friable
and easily worked, it has, where
properly laid, withstood almost
perfectly the weathering of the
139-year period since the con
struction of Old East building.
However, where used in steps
and floors, as in the entrance to
the Smith building (Playmakers
Theatre) is is badly worn, ber
cause its loose grain texture
does not readily resist abrasion.

er buildings all the materials in

don't think you have to know

time before trying to kiss her.
Rather than lose respect for.
girl who kisses, I think one that
doesn't is a wash-out."
Opposing this frankness is the
statement of a figure high in
journalistic circles. It required
an entire week-end for him to
admit, "In general, no, in par
ticular, yes."
Politician Fails to Straddle!
Considerably more romantic
and self-revealing is a senior
member of the ace political or
ganization on the campus. He
burst forth, "Although I'm in
love, I don't consider it being un
true to kiss other girls as long
as I don't give the impression
that it means anything to me. I
don't think it is necessary to
know them any particular length
of time." This, it has been un
derstood, is the fruit of certain
marriage course given in the
spring. ,
Come Up Next Year
"I think there are three stages
in kissing: a prep-school age
when you kiss a girl at every op
portunity j'ust for the experi
ence, ah undergraduate stage
when you are more particular,
and (in case you live through
that) the stage at which only one
girl interests you," declared a
second year medical student

FAMOUS ETCHER
TO GIVE LECTURE
HERE NEXT WEEK
John Taylor Arms to Present
Demonstrated "Talk in Hill
Auditorium Tuesday.
John Taylor Arms, recognized
as one of the outstanding mas
ters of the art of etching, will
give' a demonstrated lecture on
The Making of an Etching"
Tuesday night at 8:30 o'clock'm
the Hill music auditorium. "
Arms attended Princeton for
two years and was graduated
from the Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology in 1911. He
received his master's degree in
1912. He practiced architecture
for five years in New York and,
during this period, he started
etching. ' After serving in the
Navy in the World War, he gave
much time and thought to fur
thering the best interests of
graphic art in Europe and
America. His etchings are
strictly architectural in . theme,
being mainly of the cathedrals
which he has journeyed, far and
often to draw.
Arms , has organized ex
change exhibitions with the gov
ernments of England, France,
and Italy and, , because of his
long experience, in work of this
kind, he was chosen to select the
artists to be represented in the
portfolio of the Bicentennial Pa
geant of George Washington,
which has v recently been pub
lished in co-operation with the
George Washington Bicenten
nial commission This portfolio,
of which -Arms was the art edi
tor, contains x twenty etchings
representing twenty scenes from
the life of Washington. These
etchings are made by the fore
most etchers of America.
Arms own worKs are repre
sented in seventeen permanent
collections including those of the
United States National Museum
Musee de Rouen in France, Brit
ish Museum in London, Art Gal
lery of Toronto, and the Biblio
theque Nationale in Paris. Aside
from being a member of thirty-
two art societies Arms is presi
dent of the Society of American
Etchers.

Poe and Ward Emphasize Neces
sity of Breaking Precedents
To Relieve Stress.
Present conditions in Amer-
ca justify the breaking of all
precedents," Dr. Clarence Poe,
president and editor of the Pro
gressive Farmer, asserted here
Thursday night in the fifth of
a series of open forum lectures.
The right way to break pre
cedents is by establishing anv
honest, sound, and stable cur
rency, just alike to creditors and
debtors," he said. '
On the same program with Dr.
Dr. Gordon Ward of the
Virginia Polytechnic Institute
emphasized the same 'necessity.
Dr. Ward asserted the import
ance of social organization as
the medium, while Dr. Poe ad
vocated a stabilized currency.
Agriculture Hit Hardest
AH businesses, Dn Poe point
ed out, have suffered from the
present disastrous situation,
'but agriculture more than any
other industry, because the price
of farm products has dropped
out of proportion to all other
commodities. .Farm, products
which in 1928 would buy only
ninety per cent as much goods as
in pre-war days, dropped to a
ratio of eighty per cent in 1930,
o sixty-three in 1931, and fifty-
six in September, 1932. In that
month the farmer received fifty-
nine per cent of pre-war prices
for his products and paid 106
per cent of pre-war prices for
what he bought."
The farmers of America con

PROBE THREATENS
UNIVERSITY FREE
TUITIONSTUDENTS
Joint Committee of State Legis
lature Investigates Number V
Receiving Free Tuition.
The joint appropriations com
mittee of the General Assembly
appointed a subcommittee
Thursday afternoon to ascertain
the reasons for all students in
state institutions;, not paying
tuition. The action came after
it was shown to the committee
that 890 students at' the Univer
sity here and seventy-five per
cent of those at N. C. C. W. do
not pay tuition fees.
A suggested plan by-the com
mittee members effecting one
hundred dollar tuition charge for
those students not paying the
fees at present would bring an
approximate additionaf income
of $100,000 yearly to the state.
Under the present law, students
proposing to be teachers or min
isters, children of ministers, and
students with physical defects
are exempt from paying tuition.
No information regarding the
proposal to investigate 'the ad
mission plan could be obtained
from University officials yester
day. Editor Sets Deadline
George Gorham, editor of the
Carolina Engineer, has an
nounced that the deadline for
any contributions has been set
