SHAWN TO BRING
MSEMBLE HERE
Famous American Dancer Win
Appear Here with Company
Composed of Men.
The Carolina Playmakers will
present Ted Shawn, America's
foremost dancer and his male
ensemble in Memorial hall Mon
day night, November 27, as a
part of the first tour in which he
departs from the custom of hav
ing both male and female dan
cers. There is no better example of
rhythm and dancing than the
perfect precision of a football,
baseball, or basketball team, ac
cording toShawn. Many peo
ple believe male dancing is ef
feminate, but considering foot
ball, wrestling, and boxing as
dances which require the ut
most vitality, stamina, and ef
ficiency of movement, it is. easy
to see that dancing takes brawn
as well as brain.
"The real thrill in footbaU is
not in seeing a scrimmage pile-
up, but in watching beautiful
leaps to catch passes, men danc
ing lightly through broken fields
eluding would-be tacklers. A
basketball game is in its entirety
a group dance," declares Shawn.
Shawn has convinced many
men that dancing is not effemi
nate. He demonstrates the art
of using the body as an instru
ment of expressing the occupa
tions of man; war, labor, relig
ion, instead of executing a mean
ingless riot of movement.
"One class of college men I
taught was especially hard to
convince. One day I consented to
teach them a tango. The next
day some of the finest athletes
of that class admitted that their
muscles were badly strained. I
think that I convinced them'that
dancing is a he-man's occupa
tion," smiled Shawn.
DI SENATE WILL DISCUSS

tution of the United States.
