SHAWN EXPLAINS graces History of Dance and Reveals Reasons for Mascu line Troupe in Assembly. ? ; T3)i'awiiwHo presented his dance program last night in Memorial hall, spoke at fresh man assembly yesterday morn ing on the masculine dance. He was introduced Jby Professor F. H. Koch. In beginning his talk, Shawn explained the popular miscon ception of dancing as ballroom entertainment, saying that this was because dancing's lighter forms are closer to the people than those of any other art. Then, tracing the history of the dance, he said that it had been used in religion, magic, training of soldiers, and educa tion. "Always heretofore the dance has been dominated by man, as was everything of im portance ; it is only recently that it has become effeminate. Strength, intelligence, stamina, accurate thinking, coordination of mind and muscle essentially masculine qualities rather than feminine are needed for a dancing career. "I have found that when I give an audience dances by men and of masculine quality of theme and movement, it re sponds more than it does to the feminine dance. We have tried to eliminate that feminine vo cabulary of dance. Instead we have tried to study the way men have moved throughout history in their labor, spirit, war, and hunting. "The machine age is rapidly eliminating and destroying our heritage of beauty. Labor is a raw material of dance. There are also the abstract forms, built on relationships, dynamics, space, time the architecture of the dance' j In concluding he said, "I want to ask you to be open-mind ed and to be willing to give us a fair chance before you pass your judgment on men's danc- mg." v..

C TUESDAY, NOVEJffiER 28, 1933 Hopes Some Day to Create "Mo tion Choir" to Interpret Music By Use of Entire Body. "People go to hear sympho nies or choruses in which only men perform. Is it not logical, therefore, that these same per sons should attend dance con certs of men ? There is no rea son why the audience who en joys the Don Cossack choir should not also appreciate an equally great ballet of men dan cers." Ted Shawn, the world-famed dancer, told an interviewer from the Daily Tar Heel yesterday of his future plans in the realm of the dance. "Some day," he said, "I hope to have a huge 'Motion Choir,' which will in terpret music through the use of the entire body, just as the Don Cossack Russian choir in terprets music through the medi um of voice. , Colleges to Send Dancers' "As for colleges," Shawn con tinued, "the time will come when a university will send put on tour a group of male dancers just as it now sends out glee clubs. Dancing will also become a regular part of physical educa tion training, for more and more instructors and . coaches are realizing the necessity "of building up muscles that are flexible and agile, rather than taut, knotty muscles that are of no -value in any spbrt--W.

A proposed model act for the prevention of lynching is pre sented in "Lynching and the Law' a new book just issued by the University press. The author is J. H. Chad bourne, member of the law fac ulty. The book was written in response to a request of the Southern Commission on the Study of Lynching that the law school cooperate in a survey pf legislation and administrative procedure in regard to lynching. County to Be Liable Professor Chadbourne's pro posed model act for immediate results, summarized, would make it a law that the county in which the lynching occurs, and any counties through which the mob passes, shall be liable "to each lynched person or his estate for a penal sum of not less than $2,000 nor more than $10,000 to be recovered in a civil action in any state court." The act would also place more authority for the prevention of lynching in the hands of the state officials. - All prosecution would be in the hands of the attorney-general. .' The book attempts to answer the questions: Why do legal processes break down in the face of mob violence? Why do lynch ers generally go unpunished? What is the status of the law on lynching?
