GLEE CLUB HEAD
ANNOUNCES FIRST
GATHERING TODAY
No Experience Singing Is
Necessary; Good Material
Found in New Men.
Grady Miller, new director of
the University glee club who
succeeded H. S. Dyer, announces
that there will be an important
meeting of the glee club this af
ternoon at 5 :00 o'clock of an
hour's duration. This meeting
will be the first of those which
are scheduled for every Monday,
Tuesday and Thursday after
noon at the same time,
.Miller emphasizes the fact
that no experience in singing is
necessary and states that he has
already tried out 20 new men
and has found excellent material
in some- of them.
Revive Spirituals
Because the singing of negro
spirituals was so popular a few
years ago when the glee club
became widely known through
the singing of them, extra ef
forts will be made this year to
revive this type of singing in the
club. It is hoped that the added
folk interest will bring back the
""spirit and enthusiasm that ex
isted four years ago". :
If all plans go through there
wiD be several out of town con
certs given by the club this year
which will probably include Bur
lington; N. C. C. W., at Greens
boro; E. C. T. C. at Greenville;
Winston - Salem, Charleston, S.
C.,' " and several other " towns.
Anyone who expects to become
a member of the glee club must
appear at every meeting.

However, this year a plan was
innovated to make only three
stops and to remain for two
weeks in each place. It was de
cided that this would allow more
thorough work to be done and
would be less expensive. The
courses undertaken were Geo

advanced. It was possible to get
credit for two courses.
The first stop was in Blue

to get there than the ambitious

rocks. From there they went to
Rich Creek, along the New River
in Virginia where they worked
with the higher paleozoic rocks.
Their final stop was made at
Spruce Pine, North Carolina,
where they completed a study of
the most important rocks by
working with these of the ig
neous metamorphic type. They
were given practice in practical
field work, which included pro
blems in surveying, both geo
logical and engineering, and pro
jects in making geological maps
and structures. They taught the
correct use of instruments.
Geologists at Play
One boy, on being asked about
the trip merely laughed and
said, "Everything we studied on
that trip wasn't fossilized!" He
would commit himself no fur

cial Work Is Slain Object
Of Modern Course.
A new course, which is based
on the modern laboratory plan
of education, has been establish
ed by the school of Public Ad
ministration of the University
and will be conducted under the
direction of Dr. Roy M. Brown
and George Lawrence.
This course features active
social work in the state. The
students in the class meet for
regular three course class work
during the first three days of
each week, "working morning,
noon and night," according to
Lawrence, to complete the regu-"
lar curricula. After the last
Wednesday class each student is
assigned to various relief units
for work as assistant case-worker
and is paid by the respective
counties, their transportation
expenses, also included.
Students are assigned to that
county where it is believed they
can get in full time work in the
relief set-ups.. The members of
this class are carefully selected
by the director and whole
hearted cooperation has so far
been evident according to Law
rence. The purpose of this course is
to furnish, to sociology students
concentrated training in social
work in as short, time as possible
and to fulfill a much-felt need
for more social relief workers
in this : state, as - there is more
work than can be done by the
available workers.
