I ; SHAWN'S TROUPE WILL COME HERE Dancers Trained at Abandoned Farm, "Jacob's Pillow," in Berkshire Mountains. Ted Shawn, famous American dancer, will present his ensem ble of male dancers at Memo rial hall November 27 under the auspices of the Carolina Play makers. For years Shawn has had , the idea of an exclusively male dance company, but the idea was not realized until four years, ago, wnen ne acquired an abandoned farm, "Jacob's Pil low," in the! Berkshire moun tains and took men there to cre ate and -train-his troupe ;r: -; The farm was ' run down. Roads and stone walls had to be repaired, the farmhouse and the barn had to be remodeled in to living quarters and a studio, a dam was built to make a pond where the dancers could bathe. All of this back-breaking, muscle-tearing work was done by the men whom Shawn was train ing to become dancers. Those who "couldn't take it" left the farm. Those who stay ed were real he-men about whom there was nothing effeminate; those are the ones that compose the troupe that Shawn will bring here to dance. Masculine labor movements have been studied, and turned into dance patterns that are genuine and convincing. Strenuous Training One of the dancers, a former physical education instructor in Chicago, declared that there was nothing more strenuous than the dance and training routine which they had to use. "I had a course in gymnastics and tum bling at Columbia this summer," he said, "and thought I would be in splendid shape" to work with Shawn, but after one day at his farm, I was unable to go up the stairs of the farmhouse," This is a typical athletic and hardy member! of Shawn's troupe of male dancers.

PEOPLE'S FAITH NEEDED Speaking on the present world crisis and telling the causes of war and its prevention, Kirby Page, nationally known advocate of world peace, spoke Sunday night at a public service in the Methodist church.

Prefer Jail to War In : speaking of the individu al's place in the prevention of war, Page said "Go to jail before you go to the trenches and when a conflict comes, keep your head."
