Nine Students Initiated To Phi Beta Kappa At INC Chapel Hill, Dec. 10.—Nine new members have been initiated into the university Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national honary scholastic fraternity. They are: Frances Sterling Brown, Drexel Hill, Penn.; James Wiggins Coan, Winston-Salem,; George Alexander Heard, Savan nah, Ga.; James Scott Hunter, Hen dersonville,; John Whitefield Ken drick, Greensboro,; Anthony Stan ley Konefal, Bassic, N. J.; Roger Wilson Linville, Kernersville; Will iam Tillman McGowan, Jr., Tim monsville, S. C.; Nicholas Cabell Read, Montgomery, Ala. Three former students, Rufus Franklin Harward, Jr., Raleigh; Henry Wilkin, Lewis Jr., Jackson; and Elva Ann Ranson, Charlotte,' who were graduated last June, were enrolled as members. The new members, after being in ducted into • the organization by President Lawrence Hinkle, of Ra leigh, were addressed by Frances F. Bradshaw, Dean of Men at the University, who congratulated them on their fine record, urging them to maintain the high pace set by the fraternity. Among these men, who have maintained a scholastic average of 92.6 for eight consecutive quarters, are several student leaders. Heard is chairman of the Carolina Politi cal Union, non-partisan student political organization, Hunter is president of the YMCA and Ken drick is chairman of the Foreign Policy League. Read was president of the University Club last year and Henry Lewis edited the 1937 edition of the Yackety Yack. Miss Ranson wras secretary of the Woman’s As sociation and vice-president of the YWCA.

Steep And Eroded Land Retired Raleigh, Dec. 8.—Approximately 1,400 acres of steep and eroded land has been retired to permanent pas ture by farmers cooperating with the soil conservation service and .State college extension service in the erosion-control demonstration area near High Point. An addi tional 600 acres of old pasture ha9 been treated, giving 2,000 acres of : improved pasture in the area. | While this is only a part of the complete erosion-control program which cooperators are putting forth on their farms it is a phase of the work that has enabled them to work out a better balanced farm program and a more even distribu tion of farm labor, James M. Parks, project agronomist, points out. | T. A. Wins’ow. a tobacco farmer ( who in 1935 established three acres 1 of improved pasture as a part of his erosion-control program, is now making dairying his main farm en terprise He has increased his dairy cosvs from three that supplied the family with milk to 15 cows from which he gets a monthly in come throughout the yeah Z. L. Groome, another tobacci farmer, has retired several acres of tobacco land to improved pasture on which he is grazing beef cat tle. He is growing additional crops of soil-conserving • crops for winter feed, is growing a winter cover crop mixture of small grain, Austrian winter peas, and vetch for a spring hay crop and lespedeza as a sum mer hay crop, Parks said. Cleveland, Dec. 10.—(JP)—The estate of the late M. J. Van Swer ingen, Cleveland financier, was de scribed as “hopelessly insolvent” in a report filed today in probate court by Trafton M.

[Toy Matinee At Carolina Features May Robson Tomorrow morning at 9 o’clock the Carolina theatre opens its doors to the kiddies of Asheboro and they will be guests of the “Toy Matinee”, sponsored by the thea tre with the cooperation of the Sor osis club and the Girl and Boy Scouts of Asheboro. May Robson in “Three Kids and A Queen” is the feature picture to be shown the children, wherein Miss Robson as an elderly, ec centric and very rich lady, opens the story arriving in New York after an European trip with her dog, Aubrey, a pampered pooch on which she lavishes all her af fection. In the course of the Dic^ur Miss Robson is kidnapped and plays poker with her captors. The admission will be any and all old toys which the children would like to give to the needy children in Asheboro and vicinity. The used toys will be taken up and repaired by the Boy and Girl Scouts and then distributed with the aid of the Sorosis club. All children are asked to ccme to the theatre and bring their broken toys in order that Santa Claus will be able to get around to the less fortunate children on Christmas morning. Goat’s Milk Now Discussed Topic Describing the milk goat as “a handy pocket edition of the cow” that will thrive where it is not prac tical to keep a cow, the new Year book of the United States depart ment of agriculture tells of prog ress in improving native goats by using sires of milk breeds—Saanen and Toggenburg from Switzerland. Many native goats have too short a lactation period—only about four months—and are not heavy produc ers even when in milk. The best of the dees in the milk breeds will produce for about nine months, and one Saanen doe made a record of nearly seven quarts of milk a day through a 9-month lactation. A good milker vdll give enough for a small family and may be kept on one-sixth to one-eighth the quantity of feed required for one cow. V. L. Simmons, of the department believes milk gouts are likely to be come increasingly important as a practical part of live-at-home pro grams. On the average it costs less to buy a goat than a cow, and less to keep one. The milk makes a desirable addition to the diet. In the department’s herd at the Na tional agricultural research center tho program of top-crossing has increased the average period of lac tation 145 percent and the average annual production 335 percent. Goat milk has about the tame range in butterfat content as cow milk and varies in like manner with the breeds and between individuals. The fat in goat milk, however, is in finer divisions and though the cream does not “rise,” it can be ae parated mechanically. JIMMY SAVO, THE SAVANT, MYSTIFIES MISCHA, THE MYSTIC • Mischa Auer and Jimmy Save, two of the six featured comedian* in Universal’s "Merry-Go-Round of 1938," get all tangled up In a mist of mysticism while preparing a sequence for the picture. Jimmy asks, "How do you go about being a Swami, do you know?" To which Mischa replies, "Why sure. I’m a Swami from the Subnet shore. I’ll thou) you. First you hypnotise the subject.” Jimmy I HR I swims through the Swami lesson like a-swordfish swishing off a slice of the sea. A trance descends on him and he declares, "I feel tome strange power coming over me. Look, note / can hypnotise you.” And, sure enough, he does. Mischa, mystic master of mesmerism, Swami from th<; Swance shore, slips under the hypnotic spell of Jimmy Savo, the newfound savant Mischa finds himself at long last in the grip of a sticklish situation. Movieof the Month SFESftSS By Robin Coons (TP) Feature Service Writer I Hollywood—Twenty minutes of sound and fury entitled “The Hurri cane” to a place among the impor | tant movies of film historn and | make it an obvious choice for this month’s No. 1 production from Hollywood. Until the fictional story of Nov elist Norhoff and Hall is realized on the screen. “The Hurricane” is a fairly routine treatment of re liable cinema stuff that can be catalogued in the Island Idyll bracket. It is done with photo graphic beauty, generally good acting, and all the customary trap pings of this type of film. Innocent, happy, carefree natives cavort in sarongs and leis, eat mammoth banquets from nature’s abundant hands, and swim and run and dance as a colorful background for the story of the native youth Ter- | angi and his bride Marama. The tale of Terangi, who loved freedom enough to accumulate a j total of 16 years’ jail sentence through repeated attempts to es cape, has its quota of excitement, pathos and adventure, especially: in the escape sequences. But the real money’s worth in the picture is that 20 minutes of wind, rain, and tumultuous water which con- j stitutes the screen’s most realistic and terrifying depiction fo the ele ments to date. Wonder At Survivors Unless too ecstatic reports on I STATE COLLEGE ANSWERS TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS Question: How many pigs can be turned into a lot where steers are (being fattened? Answer: This depends upon the form in which the concentrate is fed, and the age of the steers. For two-year-old animals from one to three pigs should follow each steer when snapped corn is fed; one to two pigs when husked ear com is fed; one pig per steer when shelled corn is used, and one pig to each two or three steers when the com is crushed or ground. With steers that are less than two years old, the number of pigs would be reduc ed. In addition to the feed picked up in the lot, the pigs should be given an animal protein supplement and minerals. Question: What is the best time I to sow seeds in cold frames or hot-beds for the early spring gar-! den? Answer: The best time to sow seeds will depend upon the time1 the plants are wanted in the field and also upon the section. Hardy crops such as cabbages and lettuce are usually transplanted to the field as early as January 15 in the east ern part of the state. In the moun tain sections, these hardy crops are started in the hotbeds of coldframes about January 1 to 16. For a very early crop, such tender vegetables as tomatoes and peppers should be started from 8 to 10 weeks before it is 3afe to set them in the field and for the main summer crops the seed should be sown from three to four weeks before danger of frost is over. Question: Should oyster shell be kept before’the laying hens at all times? Answer: This mineral may be substituted with ground limestone but one or the other should be ac cessible to the laying flock all the time. The mineral content of the hen’s body is nearly four percent and the mineral content of the egg is eleven percent so it is necessary that the birds have certain mineral elements for growth and repair of the body. Other necessary miner als are bone meal and salt. These elements supply calcium, phosDhor ous, sodium and chlorine and the oyster shell or ground limestone supplies additional calcium. The coffee tree is believed to have developed originally in Ethio pia. this technical achievement lead you to expect too much, you’ll find the Goldwyn version of a hurri cane a thrilling and devastating experience which may leave you limp in your seat. It makes tha very praiseworthy typhoon of “Kbh Tide", anotner current film storm, Seem like a good stilt breeze. Aided by the lurious moaning | whine of tne sound track, by tne wad tempestuous music, and by a little imagination, you can share in the terror of the human beings who are washed and blown away with their pitiful houses by the “wind that overturns the world”, and then you can marvel that there are survivors—ierangi and Mara ma among them. Hall Shows Promise The hurricane itself, engineered by James basevi, tne ucnmcal gfcmus who aid tne earthquake se | ouei.ce ol “San Francisco”, is so | overwhelming that individual per formances, even tnose of Kaymond j iwasscy as tne auty-obsessea g„v , ernor and '1 nomas iviitcneli as convivai Ur. Kersaint, do not stand out as they mignt in a less leanstic film. Jon Hall as Terangi exhibits promise, a handsome physique and prowess as a swimmer and diver, ms elitctiventSs in tne prison sequences indicates a pos s.b.e luture as accor as well as atmete. Uorothy Lamour makes a beauteous bcroine, and C. Aubrey bnutn brings ruggedness to tne priest’s role. Mary Astor is sym pathetic as the governor’s wue, a roie not over-taxing ner talents. John Ford directed with his cus tomary vigor, although his hand is not so apparent as in most of his films. That he brought ’em back alive—his actors and all who were subjected to Basevi’s artificial storm—is ’ not the least of his achievements here.
