The work of the Foundation is of especial interest to church people as it is a constructive program maintained in the lands that are the birthplace of the three great religions of modern times, and the hallowed tradi tions of Christianity are embod ied in all of its 30-odd pro jects for the betterment of man kind.

That is the essence of Dr. Karl S. Bolander's lecture on 4Art In Common Things," which is to be given at the Playmakers Theatre Sunday afternoon at 3:30. Dr. Bolander, who is president of the Art Hobby Association of America, is a collector of unus ual things, such as compactly- punt telephones colored in a ga rish red, which have a musical ring instead of a strident note. He surrounds himself with such "do-dads" as book jackets, curiously-shaped ink bottles, book ends, trays, candy boxes, and candle sticks. i Dr. Bolander will discuss art in its relation to pleasure, cul ture, education, practical uses, ly prominent in the eyes of the Spencerites this fall.

Wouldn't you feel certain that you could make a better grade on a theme using ink from such an artistic bot tle?"

Theology Students Carolina students who are candidates for the ministry are asked to meet at the Y. M. C. A. Monday night at 7 o'clock for the purpose of or ganizing a non-denominational ministerial club. If possible, those who are interested in the proposed or ganization should leave their names with Miss Helen Hod ges in the "Y" office some time before Monday night. At 7:15 the group will go (o Mr, Comer's home. Trans portation will be provided. The social which the Fresh man Friendship Council had planned to give the girls Hi-Y of the Chapel Hill high school last night in Graham Memorial was called off late yesterday aft ernoon. The reason for this, it was an nounced, is due to a clause in the rules of the dance committee which prohibits dances given for high school girls. The program was to have con sisted of dancing in the lounge from 8 until 11 o'clock and free access to the game room from 10 to 11 o'clock. The sudden refusal of permit ting the dance was made yester day afternoon when the peti tion was placed before the dance committee. Cash Award The cash night award at the Carolina Theatre mounted to $110 last night when B. R mi m inurman whose name was drawn for the prize was no present to claim it. This is the fifth consecutive time that the award has been unclaimed. ". . The initial amount is $35 bu this is increased by $15 each week until the name of some one present in the theatre is drawn on cash night, v It is necessary to register for the award only once a season; "Prenez will be A French picture, Garde a la Peinture, shown at the Carolina theatre at 11 o'clock Tuesday night. This movie jwas, , drawn from,ijthe comedy by M. Rene Fauchois and its source is the same as a Hollywood production of a few years ago, "The Late Christo pher Bean," which was in turn taken from a stage show of the same name. The film's sound track is en tirely in French but students without a command of spoken French will be able to follow the story as there are titles in Eng lish at the bottom of the screen. The French press has unani mously acclaimed this produc tion. It ran over 400 consecu tive performances at the Theatre des Mathurins in Paris. The Boston Evening Tran script stated: "Prenez Garde a la Peinture" is excellent enter tainment and makes full use of the latent possibilities of the screen's flexibility." Another stick of dynamite was tossed into the Burlington strike case last night when nearly 70 sympathizers with the convicted dynamiters assembled in New West to protest a Supreme Court decision which upheld the pre vious sentences. An old faculty committee which was organized in the ear ly days of the case to defend the strikers was re-assembled and then supplemented by a student committee elected from the floor to continue work towards an other retrial, this time in the Su preme Court of the - United States. Student Committee The student committee elected last night is composed of Bob Russell, Bill Leavitt, , Gerald Hochman, Nick Read, and Miss Sadie Markovitz. The resurrect ed faculty group ' contains Ar nold Williams, W. T. Couch, Paul Green, Phillips Russell, and J, 0, Bailey. " - ' ' According to Nick Read's ori ginal motion, the student com mittee was intended to work to wards a retrial. However, after several amendments by Leavitt and Couch, the student group will interest itself with the rais ing of funds and .publicity con-" cernmg the case. The fight for a Supreme Court verdict will be carried on by the faculty group. Defense Council Major Henderson, counsel for the' defense, and Playwright Green entered the meeting late when Henderson proceeded to give irregularities in the trial and evidences of injustice to the strikers. Several of the convicted strik ers were present, headed by Walt Pickard, president of the Burlington chapter of the United Textile Workers -of America. Pickard gave the workers' view point and asked continued help from Chapel Hill. John Anderson, one of the dy namiters, called the "Al Capone of Alamance County," by the prosecuting attorney, asserted (Continued on page two) CAMPUS KEYBOARD MATTERS like interracial co- ujje.Liiiuu. ait? uiiiicuiL ui un derstanding by college students, it seems, largely because so little actual contact with the problem, as such, has been had. That is one reason. But there is another, in which reason there is no reason. College students have to think about such prob lems and think deeply and con structively, and that is obnoxi ous stuff. In this newspaper within the last two weeks have been evidences of lack of any thought whatever. It is not good taste to uncover what is buried, but these two actions stick in our mind. On the day of the Yackety-Buc football game, some unthinking members of the staff ran a cut of the Hampton Singers as the Yackety-Buc backfield and made some silly cut-lines that would have been humorous except that they were7 primarily disgusting. - Earlier this week a feature story was run on the fourth page on Charlie Craig, Graham Me- morial janitor. Nothing was wrong or derogatory about the story except that there was no truth in the interview. A repor ter had merely engaged "in con versation with the ' janitor and printed what he evidently thought the janitor told him. His resulting feature article, inci dentally, never received the ne cessary o. k. f rom the editor. These little items are seem ingly unimportant, but in a larg er sense they are' tragically vi tal. They are good examples of how otherwise intelligent college students go only skin-deep in some problems which require thought and will require much of it in the future. It's all very well to say, for instance, that white folks should ; co-operate with the Negro in his efforts at improvement, but it's a more dif ficult thing to actually effect it. P. G. H. ft
