On the following Monday Professor Koch de livered two lectures before students of the English Department of the University. The subjects of his two lectures were "Shakespeare Today" and "Present Tendencies in Modern Drama." During his visit to the Uni versity he held several conferences with students of playwriting. Professor Koch went to the South Carolina University at the invitation of the University to help in planning and organizing courses in dramatic composition and production which the English Department is planning for next year. The University authori ties are arranging a plan of co-oDer- ation between the English DeDart. ment and the Town Theatre, a com munity theatre in Columbia. Several plays will be doubtless produced next year by English students of the Uni versity and it is the desire of the English Department to stage them in the Town Theatre.

They also asserted, that the immigrants who are now flock ing to our shore are undesirable citizens, and that the rate at. which they are coming makes it impossible to ; train them into true Americana. Taylor and . Kerr, taking the side or the immigrant, brought forth the present deplorable condition of their European homes, and the poverty in wnicn tney must live. They claimed that the admittance of these men into the United States would make them appreciate America, and what she stands for, and that they would become good citizens. They denied the fact that the cheap immigrant labor would harm the economic con dition of the country, but would im prove it. " 4 r" " The Triangular debates are held each year between the University of North Carolina, Washington and Lee University, and Johns Hopkins Uni versity. No team debates at its own university, but goes to a neutral floor. Last year Carolina won both sides of the question. This time no institution won the complete con- We are running today the. criticism of the last plays produced by the Carolina Playmakers. This should have appeared in the Tuesday's issue, but was omitted through error between us and the printers. As a matter of record and review, we still consider it wise to run this story. USELESS CONFLICTS A production of a series of plays by the Carolina Playmakers, a big dance, and an intercollegiate debate between two teams that are guests of the University, in addition to two regularly scheduled society meetings, is entirely too much for a single evening (within the space of four hours). This was the manner in which events piled up here on last Saturday even ing. ,.. ;'t L ; .

The cast as a whole Wilson in Paris, he tells of meeting ' h ch,Bcter8 welL Special and altogether the cast "got across"' the fun of the play in good stylo. Miss Emily Steele, as the chaperone, was effective, and Miss Al'ce Iloge was a pleasing heroine. In "The Reaping," Mr. Terry has managed to get a gre-ii; deal of ma terial within the bounds of the one- act play. He shows real skill in pre senting, without obvious crowding, a body of material that might be used in a full length play. Nevertheless, the main action comes somewhat tard ily, and, once begun, moves very swiftly to the final scene when a lull sets in again. The reading of the poem forms the key-note of the trag edy; it is the turning point. It clear ly shows that the outcome is to be inevitably traffic. This reading, then. should come about simply, naturally, but instead it is rather obviously "and mechanically led up to. Barring these minor points, Mr. Terry s play is an excellent analysis of a theme that lies close to our interest in the at tainment of risrht morals. "The Reaping" is a play that re quires excellent acting ability for proper interpretation. Based on a theme that is at the same time deep and delicate, it needs consummate ability in actine. Miss Katherine Batts, as Jeaney. and Bailey Liipfert. as Phil, upheld their parts in an un usual manner, but at times they were not able to attain the histrionic per fection that the play calls for. On the whole, however, their acting was excellent. Except for the final scene, irt which the young husbaud reaches t.e heights of grief for hie nast sms, Mr. Liipfert gave a convincing n terpretation. In this ,'inal scene, in which the young husband reaches the heights of grief for his past sins, Mr. Lnpfert gave a convincing inter pretation. In this final scene, how ever, he was somewhat stiff; his grief seemed too prolonged, but this is per haps a fiuit of the author'; techui que rathiv than the actor's :sterpre tation . - .-, . . miss caira was iree and casv throughout the play, and in two pr three instances her acting was of a very high order.

Her dialect was Der feet, and her . quaint sayings fur nished a touch of amusement that served for comic relief. years. It was to do away with this restriction that all the cain ; was raised. Whether or not those aspir ing to remove these restrictions are successful in their efforts or not de pends upon the action which will be taken by President Berryhill upon his return to Chapel Hill.
