Panthers Get 12-7 Verdict The Henderson Institute Panthers dele;: ted Mary Potter of Ox lord here !• ':day alternoon in Cotton Stadium 12 to 7 in the annual contest be ; tween those old rivals. It was the i:iiid straight win for the Panther eleven. Fighting all the way lor every inch the teams battled closely, with long •kicks and passes bringing thrills, lioth line., played well. Payne, of Henderson, kicked well. The Panthers enjoyed a U to 0 jleaci at the half whistle by virtue ii. a 50 yard run by Payne, after tak ing a lateral from Curry. The try for point was blocked. In the third period, the Panthers .-taped a drive down field, with Payne |going the final two yards for the jscore. The try for point failed. With five minutes left in the bail 'game, Oxford drove from its own 32 to Henderson's 17, with the Panther chawing a 15-yard penalty to the two. Norfolk bucked the line for the (score. They made the extra point. Payne. Sloan, Curry and E. Hcn jderson were outstanding for the Panthers in the backfield, with C. | Williams, Stitt and Hunt houding the I forward wall. j Norfolk, F.

Particularly interesting to Tar Heels is th.o chap ter on North Carolina which relates that James Davis, first printer of North Carolina, came to New Bern in !74S). by invitation of the Assem bly and printed the first edition of its acts. Biographies of two widely differ ent Britons are new on the library shelves. In "Trelawny. A Man's j Life". Margaret Armstrong relates! with sparkling vigor the lil'e of in credible adventure lived by Edward Trelawnv. This nineteenth-century Cornish adventurer was a friend of Byron and Shelley. During his long life—he died in loSl at the age of 09—he sailed the Indian ocean under the French flag, captured a private town, married the daughter of an Arab sheik, officiated at the burning | rif Shelley's body, fought in Greece 1 ;vith Byron, visited America where he purchased a slave in order to set him free attempted to swim the Niagara rvier and finally retired to a peaceful old age in England. "Pilgrim's Way' is the autobiog raphy of John Buchan, Lord Tweeds muir. novelist, poet, historian, fish erman. explorer, member of Par liament and Governor General of Canada. Only a week before his re cent death John Buchan finished the final revision of his life story—«a keen and amusing picture of all that keeps the empire ticking, both men and institutions, kings and common ers. and of one man, Buchan himself, a splendid example of the best the empire can produce. •Wings on My Feet." by Sonja Henie, is an intimate picture of the skating star's life from her earliest years in Norway to her recent tri umphs in America.

I do." "When >ou take a couple of drinks sometimes they make you feel like something you aren't." The words Vance had spoken in her apartment came back to Kit. He had said then there were tilings she wouldn't understand. They were clear to her now. "I only told you this, Kit, be cause I want you to know that you can't let your chance go until you've proved to yourself and the world what you can do." Kit clasped her hands around her knees and looked up at him. "Thanks, Vance—thanks for tell ing me and coming up here to try to help me. I had to run away to think. And thinking, I can't see any way to go back and take Sem bler's money when I give nothing in return." "You're going to give plenty in return. You've got a throat, a voice, a heart and a mind. "Did you ever hear a canary burst into song when 1.1*3 night cover is taken off? He doesn't sing because he has a contract that calls for a trill at nine o'clock in the morning. He sings because he's part of the sunshine he sees." "I suppose you thin? singing is as easy as that." "I'm no Webster, but i can tell you that song is more thai, a mel ody. It's something that comcs out oi your mind and your lieai t and your memory as well as your throat." "Oh, Vance, if you'd seen what the critics said!" "They're right. You haven't g-:*t anything but a good throat end good notes. You haven't r.oiio any thing but READ words and music, something that pass-id between your eyes and your throat without getting anywhere near your emo tions or your understanding. That's not your fault. It's because you don't know people." "Don't know people? Why Vance, the Sembler audience numbers—" "Did you ever see 'em ? Look into their faces? Herr the mur mur of their voices? The clap of of their hands? Or the silence that can follow a song? No! And until you see audiences and FEEL them you won't know how . sing. You aren't going to sing for YOUR pleasure; you're going to sing for them. You're going to put some thing into a song, THEIR song as they feel it. Did you ever sing for an audience ?" "In a church choir and wher. Fran and I used to do cur act." "The congregation had its back to you and you probably never snng as well as you did when you and Fran sang together. You ought to sing for all kinds of audiences, tough ludiences, sick audiences, demanding audiences! You ouchtl to sec the white faces of sick vet erans, the bland faces at men's conventions, the faces of crippled children, the amateur night crowds. That's the only way you'll grow up to what they want. Tonal qual ity be darned. It comes from the heart where you store up joy and sorrow and desire and understand ing." "Why didn't i know this before it was too late?" "You've got an iron-bound con tract for twenty-six weeks more. In that time I'll make a singer out of you." "Vance! How could you?" "I'd fire Helfier and turn you over to a gay named Rudy Ar mendi, who'll browbeat sense and song into /ou. He'll feed you spa ghetti -.nd red wine and philoso phy. He'll show 3'ou thi. souls in people. He'll make you laugh and he'll break your heart, and ne'll open your closed little mind to what music means when it is a part of life. He'll make you sing when you think you can't and when you want to. he'll make you lie or. the floor and meditate. But when h; gets through, you'll know that singing is more than mouth ing note.? and words." Kit felt excitement beating | ;igainst her ribs. 'Til do the rest. The whole idea may sound crazy, but it makes semo. I'll give you i new name and a new start. As Mary—Mary Moore, lot us say, I'll ge. you the engagements an unknown rirtgor would be gla to get. Then, you ec::i r,o out and really earr. a place for ;;ourself. Will you do it. Kit?" She ran her fingerc through her ha'.1, "I—I can't answer you now. Vance." Vance's eyes were suddenly dead; his voice .vas indifferent. "Okay, forget it. When i;o ii.cse fireworks come of??" Kit's glance followed Lis point ing fmger, and s!ie sr.w 1 lie fire works frame.3 for the first time. "Tomorrow night, I suppose. Sim day';-; the Fourth, you know. Whut fur.:" Her voice was childishly pleased. "It'll carry me back to my kid days. I used to love the Fourth. I lik'i the noise, and the excitement and the feeling of something deep er. a -significance." There was something eager and r<>al in her voiee, something that rekindled a li£::t that had died in Vance's eyes. "1 suppose thcri 'll bo parade." he ?aid. "()? eours'f: .And a picnic. And tliovr'li !I." t .'O Ipr-ilillrr ni-itor innlr in«r a speech. And a band concert!" Vance said pensively, "I can SEK it. The old fellows in their faded uniforms . . . and the D. A. R. sals in their lies' while . . . the kids with sivuhljcd faces. I can taste the hor/re-made cake and fried chicken at :lie picnic." Kit said, "Tl.e host you'd ever taste." Vance we-.t on as if lie nad not j heard her. "The orator will tall:; abort what a line country this is and l.he trombone player will Hat; Iiis high notes and uobody'll cv»ji| notieo it." Kit said coldly, "What if fV.« don't ?" ' Vance said, "At the enu of t'n* concert, Kitty O'Reilly will do a solo. She'll stand up am' sing The Star Spangled Banner'." "No! Oh, no, Vance!" "Yes you ./ill, Kit, 'he said quietly. "You'll sing a- you've never sung before. Down here and all around where we're sitting, there'll '.>e that <ong in everybody's heart. You'll read those hearts and your voice will be their voice. You'll feel the same way they do. You can't help but sing gloriously. You'll feel what they a:, feeling because you'll be remembering something I'm going to tell you now." Kit was very still. "Kitty, folks—I mean folks— don't celebrate just because they want a holiday, or to see a parade. Everything about the holiday » close to them; those old vets aren't merely old men who once fought in a war they can't remember; they're 'Grandpa' to '.he whole tov. ii. Those tired women march ing proudly with their Daughters of the American Revolution ban ners—do you know that they've carried a torch down through gen erations? They're not showing off in their Sunday white clothes; they're keeping alive their pride in their ancestors because their an cestors stood for pride o- country. That's the American tradition. Kit, born in fierce pride and sustained in proud love." ; listening. Kit felt a pulse flutter - in her throat. "When the c-ralor gets up there a::d talks about what a swell country our native land is, bigosli, he'n right! If he were in Europe. hc\l talk against the thunder of g.ms. Over hi:-- head there'd be the bin'.-!: clouds of censorship. But not her', baoy! The clcy will be open and fref and the worst tiling that could conic? out of it would be a thunderstorm. You might think about thi:. tomorrow night when you're singing and the words star spangled will mean something to yo«-" • "Don't, Vance." she said in *. mu filed voice. "You make me feel like crying." "Crying!" he shouted. "Lord, I want you to feci g'.oiilicd and tri umphant and to sing that way! I want you to feci proud and joyous because you know that that same sky will be open and free as long ar those people aiound you fee! as they do. Maybe I'd better stick around and make tint speech my self." "M-maybe you'd better," she agreed, punctuating her agree ment with an audible sniffle.
