Vol. XXX November 18, 1921 No. 14 HIGHER EDUCATION On Friday and Saturday of th week the Carolina Piaymakers are ottering one of most needed and withal one of the most disergarded phases of college life. Apart from the theater, as is Chapel Hill and to a great degree the whole of North Carolina, it is a privilege and a part of our education to see plays pre sented by players who are interested and able in their work. This week-end they are presenting the Shakespeare- Playhouse Com pany of New York under the direc tion of Mr. Frank McEntee. Mr. McEntee and his players will pre sent "Candida," by Bernard Shaw, Friday evening; "A Doll's House," Ibsen's well known play, , Saturday afternoon; and three one act plays Saturday evening, Dunsany's "Night at an Inn," Synge's "In the Shadow of the Glen," and Lady Gregory's "Rising of the Moon." It is not the first time that these players have presented their olavs in Chapel Hill anil those of us who have seen them can testify to the worth of their work. With the growth of our college we can expect to have good plays brought to us at regular intervals throughout the year. That would very vitally increase the edu cational advantages of the University and help us to get in touch with the finer things in life that are to so great a degree lacking in our life here. At present we are very fortunate in having with, us the McEntee play, ers as one of the very few things that each year we have that are be yond the humdrum of very instruc tive lectures and badly chopped movies. As much as hours in the library and laboratory these things that touch the finer sides of our lives are a part of our education. There seems to us to be a very definite movement on foot to bring in to us each year more and more of those better things that will touch us and build us. The faculty com mittee in charge of Chapel has made arrangements to bring to us at fre quent intervals men of ability and superior knowledge to keep us in touch with the trend of the times along all lines of industry, art, and tcience. The lecture committee are making plans to present here men who In speaking will bring us real messages. Siminars are being given outside of the regular courses of the curriculum that have as their aim the keeping of the student and the whole University in close and definite touch with the great movements in the outside world that will affect us as part of the tremendous scheme of affairs in the world we live in and of which we are a part. These things are all of them a part of a very necessary movement within the University to give the students a better side life than the school room and a more exquisite vista than long stacks of books. The presentation of the plays here on Friday and Saturday of this week are but a minor though very delight ful part of the education of the senses that has so long been totally disergarded by those who have had charge of the education of our brains. We can all of us see this trend towards the real higher education but the decision rests with us as to the good it will do us. These plays On the Red Cross. Dear Mr. Editor: I think that Professor Odum of the Public Welfare Department hit the nail on the head in speaking of the Red Cross work among the stu dents the other day when he said that the spirit displayed among the students in the matter of volunteer work for the Red Cross, that is, giv ing their time, energy and enthu siasm, is fine: but the fact that times are hard and money scarce this year is all the more reason whv one should give to the Red Cross; for the spirit of sacrifice means more now than ever. It is not the act of weariner a button that counts. The actual value of the button is less than one cent. It is the spirit of benevolence and sacrifice that counts, the thought of disabled soldiers helped, of suffer ing people and lands aided bv the Red Cross, of epidemics prevented in our own country and of lives saved in our floods. Surely when he thinks of this, every man on the campus can, by sacrifice, enroll under the banner of the Crimson Cross, and as one of many self-hpln nftirianta. witTi whom one dollar comes and goes with difficulty, we challenge every student to match our button.

The thorns are plentiful, too: Each beauteous bloom but discloses A sting that will wound you anew Pluck them by handfuls. however. And mind not the cost nor the pain Though they wi" not last forever, Yet memory's rose will remain. That, while you live, you may cherish Breathe deeply its pleasant per fume, And if with your body it perish. Its petals will garnish your tomb AT THE PICKWICK Magazine Editor Asain Writes Dear Mr. Daniels: Please print the following: Let me congratulate you on auot ing, almost exactly, what I said to Mr. Wade and to the members of the Magazine board. If anything be wrong with your statement, you did not emphasize enough what said, but, although your communi cation was long, you did not answer my question as to who had resigned from the board. I am still awaiting the answer. As to the question you asked, let me say that I made a statement in The Tar Heel which you can inter pret as you see fit. Yours truly, William E. Horner Dear Willie: You can have the last word. . . . ) , ,. Dice. ITEMS OF INTEREST Dr. L. R. Wilson, and Miss Thorn ton, of the University library staff, attended the State Librarians' Con vention held in Greensboro last week. B. Hume Barden, Manager of ten nis, announced his appointment of assistant managers for varsity ten nis Thursday night. The annoint- ment of the assistants has been usual ly made by the President of the Ath letic Association, but by power con ferred upon him by the President. Manager Barden was permitted to appoint them. E. C. Jernigan of Ben son and Zack Long of Rockingham were appointed assistant managers for the ensuing year. Fred Spaugh. of Winston-Salem. was initiated in Delta Tau Delta Sat urday night. Tom Turner, of Hieh Point, was initiated in Sigma Alph Epsilon Tues day night. Prof. Harold D. Mever. assistant professor in socioloey. addressed th Rotary Club of Durham at a lunch eon on Armistice Day. He also ad dressed the Community Club at Stem last night. Constance Talmadge in "Good Ref erences" will be the principal attrac tion at the "Pick" on Saturday even ing, the 19th. As Mary Wayne. Connie finds her self in Journey's End. a boardinc house where the dear old landlady makes a wild clutch for board in ad vance and succeeds in reducing her fair young boarder's net capital of hve dollars to a lonesome pair of iron-men.' Worse than that, she tries to get a job but all the boys behind the mahogany desks are stone-hearted about young ladies who want to be stenographers and who have no ref erences. How Mary Wayne breaks into a run of good luck that begins with her pal being taken sick, leaving a job open for someone to fill and eiv- ing Mary an opportunity to borrow a set of references, is cleverlv por trayed by Miss Talmadge in her own whimsical and inimitable way. Many scenes of the picture are taken in Long Island Sound. "Extravagance," a Metro produc tion, starring the blonde screen beauty, May Allison, will be shown on the screen of the "Pick" on Mon day evening. This Metro sneei1-wn. adapted from the story by Ben Ames w;ii;Qma (( oi.i.i- c ..I """""i ifxuic owitiy mansions, I which appeared in Good HousekeeD- mg Magazine, and created a sensa tion by its astounding portrayal of a current social malady. Miss Allison has the role of Nancv Brown, daughter of a wealthy man who marries Dick Vane, a young law yer. Her society ambitions neces sitate a severe dent into the hus band's income, and in a mad desire to hold his wife's love. Dick forces a check on his father. It is. when jail faces him, and his wife is s-iven the chance to save her husband bv leaving forever, that the great un aerstandmg leading to a new life comes. Pertinent Paragraphs The "Pick" has picked up. STUDENTS RUSH AGAIN TO SCENE OF NO FIRE (Continued from Page One.) if We can stand a few terrible shows they bear earmarks of being modern. Some outsiders still make the mis take of calling Chapel Hill a village But it is a sad fact that we can no longer furnish material for jest with our evidenced rusticity. The electric signs and ready cut houses and crrming clock place us entirely out of that class. And yet we grow more and more metropolitan. The country club effect of "nick ers" about the campus and the con iemplated opening of the new te room don't mark the end of th'ngs yet. A prominent New York haber dashery establishment announces that it will open a permanent local branch as soon as suitable quarters can be secured. Ami the Shakespeare Playhouse Company has dropped in on us to give us a taste of the real artiile donchaknowi Some weeks ago it was rumored that the Carolina Playmakers were putting on an entirely new pageant hereabout entitled, "The Bombard ment of Paris." But investigation showed that all the alarm was occasioned bv the con vict gangs doing various blasting jobs about the neighborhood. The only real damage done was the breaking out of several window panes and the minor perturbation of one of our campus celebrities said to Suffer periodically from D. T.'s. shot through the already reeling night air. At least the ponderous fire fight ing apparatus roared and rumbled out of the fire house and the thrilling fire chase was on. Up through the streets the great mechanism roared. Louder the siren sang. Closer shrank the co-eds. The firemen were at last on their way, and woe to any fire that got in that way. A burning chimney in the Tar Heel Tavern caused all the excitement. A bucket of water had saved the tavern for democracy long before the snort ing fire engine pulled up. The ex cited firemen climbed back on their snorting steed and with a plentiful use of the siren wended their way peacefully back to the fire housd while the general cry of "Cedar Bird" resounded all over the city.

PROFESSOR KOCH SPEAKS E COMEDY Interpret in Impressive Way Num ber of Shakespearean Scenes in Lecture to Sophomores. Prof. Frederick H. Koch, head of the department of dramatic litera ture, gave a lecture and reading nn "Comedy in Shakespeare." before the combined classes in Sophomore Eng lish in Gerrard Hall Wednesday at 12:40. The most impressive Bart of what the professor had to sav was his reading of the delightful wooing scene from "The Tamine- of .ho Shrew." His interpretation of the various characters in this scene was very nearly perfect, and he kent his ' L- - large audience in a roar of laughter trom beginning to end. The ringing of the noon bell stopped him from going into other scenes. Besides this he snoke in central on the comedy in Shakesneare. and all comedy. Quoting from another dramatic authority he said in regard to the acting of comedy, "Any actor or average ability can do tra?Pdv but comedy that is a very serious Dusiness." He defined cnmoilv . inoughtful Laughter." Professor Koch said that Shakps. peare's immortality rests in his abil ity to create characters anil t.A rtlivooQ - """v his verse m immortal language. As usual he gave a slam at Charlio's mustache and feet.
