PROMISES TO BE TREAT

Sparkling Group Chorus Girl, Beau
tiful Costumes, Splendid Music and
Attractive Stage Setting.
COMING WEDNESDAY P. M.
"The Chimes of Normandy" is
coming. It is to be presented Wed
nesday evening, February 8, at 8:30
o'clock, in Memorial Hall under the
direction of the University Depart
ment of Music.
With a sparkling group of chorus
girls, daintily costumed in the quaint
dress of seventeenth century Nor
mandy, with a cast of principals that
would do credit to a professional
theatrical producer, a chorus of ex
cellent male voices, a fifteen piece
orchestra ably directed, a good stage
in a good hall with good lighting ef
fects, and an array of gorgeous cos
tumes for the entire company, secur
ed from the best costuming house in
the east, the production of this comic
opera promises Chapel Hill and the
University one of the best treats of
the year.
Several changes have been made
in the cast of principals as first an
nounced. This was made necessary
by the forced leaving of college for
the present of William and Tench
Coxe, due to the illness of their
father. Glenn Barden has been sub
stituted for Tench, . and F. E. Mc
Glaughon for William Coxe. This does
not, however, weaken the cast.
The chorus of girls will be cos
tumed as maid servants of the time
in which the story of the opera is
laid. In the first act the men of the
chorus will be dressed as footmen
and drivers, and afterwards as sail
ors. One of the many things which will
cause it to appeal to University stu
dents is its simplicity. It can be
understood. There are pretty lines,
catchy tunes, the kind to catch the
fancy of the student and hold it.
And it is easy to hear what is being
said on the stage.
The cast of principals as it now
stands includes: Beatrice Barton
Risley, Dorothy . Russell, Aline
Hughes, Marguerite Ghent, Martha
Hamilton, Charles Siewers, Albert
Hewitt, Legrande Everett, Frank
McGlaughon, Glenn Barden, and
John E. Baker.
' The girls' chorus , is as follows:
Katherine Batts, Margory M. Brad
shaw, Mary Louisa Cobb, : Curtis
Henderson, Annie Bell Hill, Sara B.
Howell, Jane Moxley, Eeatinge Pol
lock, Mildred Price, Kirksey Stolker,
Marjorie Teriney, Laura Love Thomp
son, Jane Toy, Vallie Uzzell, Francis
Venable, and Katherine Woodrow.
The men are James McL. Barring
ton, W. Forest Fulton, J. W. Hodges,
J. H. Jarvis, Haywood B. Kendrick,
William M.' Mebane, R. P. Shepard,
Paul D. Stephenson, Thomas Teve
paugh, Herman A. Walker, and Wil

. The call has been sent out
from Europe for the generous
aid of America. Starvation,
cold and depression are wreak
ing their worst upon these Jew
ish peoples across the sea. Hun

Qld men, women and children
the victims of ghastly pogroms

Their fate rests with you.
Who will hesitate to give his
mite to save these people?
Hon. Josephus Daniels writes:
"The news that comes from
Europe of the destitutions of
hundreds of thousands of Jew
ish people must sadden every
warm-hearted man and woman
in America. The fact that there
are 400,000 Jewish refugees
driven from their homes by
starvation and murderous raids
is an appeal to the generous in-.

which they must and will heed."

Garland Porter Talks To Student
In Chapel Explained Recent
Actions of Student Council
' A statement concerning recent
activities of the student council was
made in chapel Tuesday morning by
G. B. Porter, president of the coun
pil and pf the student body.
While divulging no names, Porter
stated that the council , had been
compelled to take disciplinary action
in four cases recently. Two fresh
men have been suspended for cheat
ing, and two other students put on
probation for indulging in spirituous
liuors during a visit to Raleigh.
Several letters were read by Presi

of these were from parents of stu

AND EUROPE COMPARED
Paper By Miss Eugenia Bryant Read
at North Carolina Club Meet
ing Last Monday.
The status of the farm tenant in
the United States and in Europe was
compared in a report by Miss Eu
genia Bryant Monday night at a meet
ing of the North Carolina Club, which
is continuing its exhaustive survey of
the tenancy situation.
After introductory remarks show
ing the extent of tenancy and the
accompanying evils, in general, Miss
Bryant told of a survey of tenancy
in the British Isles and Continental
Europe made recently by an Ameri
can commission, in which the con
clusion was reiched that the Ameri
can tenant is living under the most
vicious tenant ..ystem n the world.
One of the conditions in Europe
most favorable to the tenant is the
long term lease, lasting from five to
twenty years, at the expiration of
winch the tenant receives in the nnai
settlement the value of all improve
ments on the farm, or buildings, even
an additional pane of glass put in
the house. On, tjie other side the
land lord is protected against de
tection of soils and buildings, neg
lect, abuse and damage of every sort.
One beneficial result of the long lease
system is that tlje tenant is gener
ally satisfied to remain on the farm
and takes a pride in the appearance
of the farm property. The prmci-
dsI drawback, however, is the dif
ficulty of rising out of tenancy into
ownership.
In contrast with this the American
tenant usually makes a contract of
only a year or two and is ever on
thp move, making it difficult to ac
cumulate anything. One advantage,
however, in his favor is the superior
opportunities to acquire a farm.
The speaker also pictured some ot
the conditions among North Carolina
tenants in particular which she had
Carolina is scheduled to play Trin
ity Saturday night in what Will be
the most important basketball game
played in the state so far this season.
When the Methodists and the Tar
Heels line up against each other in
Bynum gymnasium the two strongest
basketball combinations in North
Carolina will be seen in action. The
result of that game will give much
food for state championship dope, t
Last year it was between Trinity
and Carolina for the state honors,
and after winning one game each the
two teams met in the auditorium at
Raleigh for the deciding game. Caro
lina proved the better of the two and
won out from the Methodists, at the
same time capturing the state cham
pionship for 1921. t
This year Carolina has a team
which ought, on paper, to be even
better than the quint that represented
the University last season. However,
so far this season, the brilliancy that
distinguished the 1921 quint wherever
it played, in north and south, has not
been so outstanding, and only good,
fast basketball has been displayed.
Flashes of the 1921 brilliancy havq
ibeen demonstrated, and it may b
,that the Tar Heels will really find
themselves in the game against Trin-
I'ity Saturday night.
Trinity, as usual, has a clever ag-;
gregation of basketball players thai;
will make it mighty hot for Carolina;

from Wake Forest by 31 to 10, while
the Tar Heels defeated the Baptist,

This Week.
February 1, 1922.
Dear Sir:
There has come into my hands a
copy of a letter written the high
schools of the state by "The Tar
Baby," Inc., concerning the publica
tion of the High School number of
the magazine, and referring to cer
tain prizes for the best work done.
Inasmuch as the letter sent out
bears the line "The University of
North Carolina," and therefore it
might be thought that the University
of North Carolina is in some way
concerned I desire to make the fol
lowing statement, which I ask you to
communicate to your school:
1. "The Tar Baby" is. not a Uni
versity of North Carolina publication.
It is a private business enterprise.
Mr. Abernethy has not even been a
student here for some time, and
whatever students are associated with
the publication are employed as pri
vate individuals by the company, not
as delegated representatives of the
student body. "The Tar Baby" is
not in any way supported, controlled
or authorized by either the student
body or the faculty, or any group

Well at Times.
Moving one game nearer the state
championship, the Carolina basket
ball quint defeated th,e State college
five in the Raleigh auditorium Tues
day night by the score 30-17. Some
poor basketball was played by both
sides, but the Tar Heels played fast
er and a steadier game in the long
run and the outcome of the contest
was never in doubt.
Carolina was slow to get started
in scoring, and near the middle of
the first period the West Raleigh
collegians led Fetzer's aggregation
by the score of 5 to 4. This lead
did not stand for long, however, and

"Influence of Virgil on European Lit

This Week.
"The Influence of Virgil on Eu
ropean Literature," is the subject of
Dr. E. K. Rand, prof eaosr of Latin
in Harvard, who is conducting a
seminar here thL week for advanced
students in literature. His lectures
as might be expected are not ocn
fined to Latin literature but touches
the whole field of European literature
that is influenced by the wrtings of
Virgil.
He is devoting the first half of the
week to the discussion of Virgil and
hit works and the second half to the
influence that Virgil's writings had
over later poets, particularly Dante
and Milton.
About 25 students, mostly gradu
ates, are attending this seminar
which meets in the English room of
the library each afternoon at 3:30,
and has two hour sittings.
While conducting this seminar, Dr.
Rand is the guest of Dr. Geo. Howe,
dean of the college of liberal arts,
who invited him here for this work.

The opportunities of the teaching
profession as a vocation for young
men were attractively set forth in
a talk by Prof. M. C. S. Noble to
the students in chapel Monday morn
ing. One of the best known and best
loved educators in the state, Profes
sor Noble has been connected with
the department of pedagogy at the
University since 1898 and dean of
the school of education since 1913.
The speech Monday morning was
a typical "Billy" Noble address, deep
ly serious in purport but bubbling
over with genial good humour and
occasional sallies of pure nonsense
that never failed to spread a con
tagious laugh over the hall.
"You have all dreamed of great
ness," Raid Professor Noble, "you
have been picked out by the folks
at home to excel in whatever pro
fession you enter. There is no pro
fession in which there is a greater
opportunity to excel than in the
teaching profession. Take the three
greatest men in North Carolina be
fore the Civil war you may never
have heard their names, but that
doesn't hinder them from being great
men Bobbit Yancey, Archibald E
Murphy, and Calvin H. Wiley, all
three achieved greatness in the field
of education. Likewise the three
greatest names in North Carolina
since the Civil war I expect Dr. E,
K. Graham, former president of the
University are ,C. E. Mclver, found
er of the State College for Women
at Greensboro, Edwin A. Alderman,
now president of the University of
Virginia, and J. Y. Joyner, former
state superintendent of education.
These names are better known than
those of the United States senators
from North Carolina. That's the rea
son I don't want to be a United States
senator you'd forget me so quickly."
Profesosr Noble deplored the fact
that men of talent and ability in the
field of education are engaged chiefly
in the work of supervision and ad
ministration, thus making for a scar
city of really great teachers devot
ing their time to actual instruction
of boys and girls.
times Green, the clever Tar Heel
forward, with Captain "Cart" Car
michael, distinguished themselves
with pretty shots from difficult
angles, but these were few in num
ber. Groome for State did some
good work in the scoring department
of the game, but his good work, too,
came very seldom and was far from
brilliant.
The game was pretty rough at
times, but at other times seemed to
even drag a little and appeared some
what slow. Johnson for State and
McDonald for Carolina were forced
to retire on personal foul basis, due
to the strict interpretation of the
rules by Referee Lewis. The little
Carolina guard played a pretty de
fensive game while in the game, how
ever, and it was a loss to the team
to have hjm retire. Fourteen fouls
were called on the Carolina quint,
while State was charged with mak
ing ten.
Both teams failed miserably to
take advantage of the , free throws
offered them. "Billy" Carmichael,
Carolina's foul shooter, was able to
cage only four out of five tries, while
Groome and Park together made five

At a meeting of The Tar Heel
Board recently, Professor Louis
Graves of the Department of Journal
ism informed the Board that tlje
University had at last officially de
cided to give the members of the
staff college credit for their work,
probably counting as a half course
for the sophomores and a full course
for uppercjassmen.
The course will be known as Eng
lish 30, and only members of The
Tar Heel staff or regular correspond
ents for daily newspapers will be
eligible to register ior the course.
The course is tp ,be conducted in a
similar manner to that in which daily
newspapers check up each article in
order to pay their correspondents by
the column. So Professor Graves is
to check up on each issue of the Tar
Heel and give a grade to each article.
Mr. Graves stated that he had some
difficulty in arranging with the regis
trar in allowing men to register for
a course in the middle of a term,
but this had been overcome because
the Tar Heel work has been going
on for the whole year and back issues
of the paper can be checked.
This information has, and will,
arouse the question in the minds of
many freshmen, "How can I get on
the Tar Hee Board?" The Tar Heel
in the last month of school holds
a competitive contest in which any
member of any class or school is
eligible, freshmen in particular being
asked to try out. Definite rules for
the contest will be announced when '
the time arrives.
