THE TAR HEEL, FEBRUARY 11, 1921.
CO-ED BASKET BALL
Team to Play Girli Team of Chapel
Hill School and Other Team
in'Near Future.
The co-ed basketball squad at
work this week has made a fair de
gree of progress. Although at
times, owing to the number of heavy
falls and close tackles, the game
somewhat resembles football the
opinion is tnat a team win result
that will be equal to any that can be
put out by any other group of wo
men students in the State.
The team has not been picked yet
as the manager feels that some of
those who are just being initiated
may in time surpass those who are
old hands at the game. Among those
who have been out this week are
Misses Mable Bacon, . Addie Brad
shaw, Alice Gattis, Mary Yellott, for
wards; Misses Aline Hughes, Emily
Steel, Nell Pickard, Katherine Cross,
Louise Williams, Nina Cooper,
guards; and Misses Elizabeth McKie
and Ellen Lay, centers. Miss Brad
shaw is also being tried out for cen
ter but she is so adept at goal shoot
ing that she may be used at forward.
The team has already been chal
lenged by the Chapel Hill high school.
It is hoped that this game will come
off next week. Lenoir College and
the Charlotte Y. M. C. A. team have
also challenged the fair athletes to a
trial of skill on their home courts.

The Letz Quartet which is one of
the two foremost string quartets of
the world today wil lappear in
a concert in Gerrara Hall on Tues
day evening, February I5th. This
quartet I is just entering upon its
fourth season and few organizations
in their fourth season attain the
large number of engagements that
the Letz Quartet is to play. Its
popularity is second to none, and be- j
sides being already engaged for
twenty-three concerts in New York
city, it has been engaged for con
certs in leading cities all over the
country. The Quartet also has en
gagements with many or the leading
colleges. ;
The Quartet is composed of a
group of brilliant artists who are
Hans Letz, first violin; Sandor
Harmati, second violin; Edward
Kreiner, viola; and Lajos Shuk, cello.
Hans . Letz, the founder and leader
of the Quartet, was for several years
the concert master of the Chicago
Symphony Orchestra, and later sec
ond violin of the Kneisel Quartet.
The program will not only include
the great masterpieces of the classic
and romantic schools, but also at
least one section of it will consist of
modern compositions of the tuneful,
catchy sort such as "Molly on the
Shore," by Percy Grainger; this is an
old Irish dance tune, as jolly and in
fectious as a piece of music can be.
Undoubtedly the most interesting, if
not the most important number on
the program will be the new quartet
in A minor by Fritz Kreisler, the
famous violinist .
A SCIENTIFIC TREAT
BY NOTED INVENTOR
Professor Montraville M. Wood to
Demonstrate Gyroscope and
Ultra-Violet Ray.
AT THE PICKWICK
On Saturday night Elon College
defeated Wake Forest by a score of
18 to 15. The game which was play
ed on the Elon floor was fast and
interesting, and the outcome remain
ed in doubt all throughout the sec
ond half. Elon managed to main
tain a one point lead, and it was not
until the last minute that the victory
was certain. A field goal from the
middle of the floor just before the
whistle blew definitely decided the
game.

Carolina is fortunate enough to
have Montraville M. Wood, scientist,
inventor, lecturer, present an enter
taining demonstration of the gyro
scope and ultra-violet ray in Gerrard
Hall, February 14, under the auspices
of the Y. M. C. A.
Prof. Wood was closely associated
with Thomas A. Edison in his early
days and in 1899 was appointed dis
trict engineer of the Edison Com
pany on the Pacific coast. He is
prominently listed in the latest
"Who's Who'' and is the inventor of
many useful electrical devices among
which is the two-button switch. He
was honored a few years ago by be
ing appointed aerial postmaster of
unicago.
The writer had the pleasure of
attending one of Prof. Wood's enter
tainments in Raleigh some years
back, and although he was at the
time but a small boy in knee-pants,
recalls distinctly the keen enjoyment
with which he was thrilled by the
wierd and beautiful effects of the
ultra-violet demonstration and the
uncanny feats of the gyroscope. His
scientific explanations are couched in
popular language which the layman
can grasp without difficulty.
One of Prof. Wood's great inven
tions is the famous "hearing torpedo"
about which so much has been said
in magazines and newspapers. Al
though he has received many tempt
ing offers from foreign governments
for this deadly weapon, he has stead
fastly refused to sell the secret to
any nation except the United States.
Local lovers of the mystery-detective
story who have been thrilled by
the exploits of Arsene Lupin, Maurice
Le Blanc's master crook creation,
will be at the Pickwick Monday night
to see David Powell in the "Teeth
of the Tiger."
Louise Huff appears at the Pick
wick Tuesday night in a new Selz-
nick picture, "The Dangerous Para
dise." The central point of interest
is Ivis Vanastor, played by Louise
Huff. Ivis is a young woman of con
siderable means who has formed the
opinion that only married woman
have any real freedom. She tries a
startling experiment that develops
some startling results. -;
