PRICES TO BE POPULAR The Letz Quartet, which was so well received by a large audience here last year, is to appear in Chapel Hill again on Monday evening at 8 o'clock in Gerrard Hall. This quartet is one of the fore most American music organizations. It is firmly established in New York, and each time it appears there is met with large and enthusiastic audiences. It has appeared in all the larger East ern cities under the auspices of the leading musical and educational clubs and from the press comments follow ing its appearance it is widely her alded as a leader in its field of work. Many student and faculty members remember with pleasure the appear ance of the Letz quartet here last year, and will be glad to know that it is to return. The local management of this new visit has cut the price way below the usual prices for its appearance. Un reserved seats in the balcony are to go at 50 cents. All the lower floor will be reserved at seventy-five cents and a dollar a seat. In finding out the merits of the quartet the best means- were found to be in the press comments from various leading papers of the east. Mr. Letz and his associates are at present appearing before all the lead ing colleges on their route. Only extracts from these press comments can be given. The New York Sun had this to say about them after a performance there: "Mr. Letz and his associates gave a-good concert. Their playing has a smoothness and a well-balanced en semble to commend it. In their per formance there is sincerity, to which is added sound musianship, aided by good taste." From the Philadelphia Public Led ger is a splendid tribute to the work of these artists, as follows: "Mr. Letz and his comrades by dint of talent and hard labor have won their way to the highest pinnacle in their profession." . i Many Southern newspapers have added their praise to that of the oth ers on the quality of this organiza tion. The Atlanta Journal speaks in high regard of it, and from Tampa Times is found the following com ment: "New York has heaped praises on this quartet, and for Tampa to fol low would be empty honor, but the quartet has that honor, however empty it may be, for before the four finished the "Andante Cantabile," al most at the close of the evening, the entire house was wishing it were only the beginning." PLAY TRY-OUTS SATURDAY Tryouts for parts in tha three new plays which have been se lected for the Carolina Play makers' winter quarter produc tion- will be held in Peibody auditorium Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. There has been a misunderstanding among freshmen in regard to these try outs. Many think that fresh men are not eligible, and have therefore failed to come out even though they are interest ed. Professor Koch is anxious to have all first year men who care for dramatics come out and see if some of the parts do not appeal to them, and have them try for character work or any thing else which comes out in the plays.

The Carolina basketball schedule has been materially changed, the .northern trip having been cut short, the City College of New York drop ped from the schedule In order that the Tar Heels may enter the South ern Collegiate Tournament in Atlan ta February 24 to 28, at which time a Southern champion will be picked. The entering of Carolina in the Southern tournament will mean much to the University, in the opinion of athletic authorities, the tournament for the last several years having been the method of picking champions for all southern states. Carolina will en ter the game3 there with a brilliant outlook, and will be picked, no doubt as one of the chief contenders for the hlue ribbon. With the victory over State Mon day night, the Tar Heels took an other step toward the State pennant which came to Carolina last year. Only Elon is to be handled before a claim can be extended, and while Elon is 16oking better every game they play, the general opinion is that the University still has the edge on any other team in the state. Elon took Wake Forest and State into the fold with hard fought vic tories. Monday night she blighted Trinity hopes by winning, 39 to 38, Practically eliminating the Methodists fratern ity men excelling non-fraternity men about every third or fourth quarter. For the same quarter last year, how ever, the general fraternity average was slightly lower than , for this year. The grades made in the fall of 1921 are as follows: general frater nity average, 3.6052; general acad emic average, 3.6458; general non fraternity average, 3.6542. The grades for the fall of 1920 are as follows: general fraternity 3.7006; general academic average, 3.5828; general non-fraternity aver age, 3.4858. drawing more applause for his sing ing was Albert Hewitt as Jean Gren icheux. His voice was wonderful and he was encored repeatedly. Frank McGlaughon, who took the part of the Baliff, only a few days before the performance due to the leaving last meeting, suggested that formal dinners be given during the year to which any one could come, and also that more social fraternities be form ed.

Elon will be met on the Elon floor and the game prom-1 ises to be one well worth seeing, and i one of Carolina's real tests for the season. State and Wake Forest are alto gether out of the scrap, and Trinity is much further away than she was a week ago, having gone down under both Elon and Carolina within the week. Trinity also chances to lose one and possibly two of her men on account of grades during the past semester there. It is rumored that Neale, and possibly one other good man will go the way of all hard luck students. Comparing scores for the Elon game, and comparative scores are al ways unsatisfactory, gives Carolina an unusually bright outlook. Elon defeated Trinity only one point while Carolina beat them sixteen points. She defeated State and Wake Forest by a .small margin, while Carolina ran up a large score with the second and third teams playing parts of the game. Up to the present time Carolina has invariably scored high on any team in. the State, having fallen be low 40 points only one time, and that against State. The highest score of the season was against Wofford, while Elon defeated them only 35 to 34. Carolina's score was 54 to 26. ON JEWISH RELIEF FUND Paints Picture of Famine-Stricken Peoples in Europe Canvass Started for Local Quota. Doctor Bernard addressed the stu dents in chapel Monday morning, speaking in behalf of the Jewish Re lief movement. He pictured vividly the famine-stricken condition of the Jewish people In Russia and other European countries and made an earnest appeal to the students to contribute liberally to the cause. "There are at present in Eastern Europe," said Dr. Bernard, "300, 000 children who are slowly starving to death. To care for them there are no hospitals, no fathers and mothers, no physicians, no nurses. In addition to these, there are 400,000 homeless, wandering Jews in the Urkraine and Southern Russia, driven from their homes, dying by the thousands." Dr. Bernard made it clear that the only possible salvation for these peo- nle must come from America and Dr. A. W. Hobbs .has returned from Greenville where he attended a meeting of the North Carolina Asso ciation of Teachers of Mathematics, lich was in session at ths Eastern Carolina Teachers' College February 3 and 4. Dr. Hobbs was president of the !ocintion during the last term of office, and was succeeded at the meet ing last week by the election of Miss Fannie Starr Mitchell, of Gastonia. i addition to the election of officers the chief feature of the session was an address by Mr. Raleigh Schorling, principal of the Lincoln School of Columbia University, which is under the control of the Eastern Carolina Teachers' College. It will also be of interest to alumni readers of The Tar Heel to note that it was decided at this meeting to af filiate the state association with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. dent body more social "veneer" and poise. He strongly insisted on the fact that the fraternity man : did not get this training, but rather lost what he already had if any change is made in him. He added that Wash ington and Lee had thirty fraterni ties and was confronted with the same problem as the University. The members discussed at some length the feasibility of offering a one-hour course in social etiquette to Freshmen. Some instructor would give a practical lecture on this sub ject once a week in Gerrard Hall, a course similar in form to the General course given to Freshmen two years ago. SI Well Known Campus Personality Operated on For Appendicitis After Passing State Bar. The condition of the well-known campus personality, "Scrubby" Rives, who underwent an operation for ap pendicitis about two weeks ago, is very unfavorable, according to re ports brought back from Watts hos pital in Durham where he is confined. Coming as it did immediately af ter his return from Raleigh where he successfully took the state bar examination, the news of "Scrubby's" illness was a distinct shock to the Carolina student body. ; America he likened to the good Sa maritan, who would not hesitate to help the man fallen among thieves. In conclusion, Dr. Bernard men tioned the debt which the world owes the Jewish race, from which it has received a monotheistic idea of re called attention to the striking phrase Hfe-ion, the greatest moral code on used in advertising the relief move-! earth, the Psalms of David, and the ment "We save them or they die." teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. Carolina swamped N. C. State here Monday, 49 to 19, throwing that team out of the running for State cham pionship and strengthening Caro lina's claim to the honor. Elon is the only team remaining in the state to be defeated. Monday night's victory is the sixth straight for Carolina. With only Elon in sight the- quint bids fair to take the state championship two years in succession. The State game was a hard one, and the score does not indicate the high pitch at which interest ran dur ing the playing, or the roughness of the melee. State had nineteen fouls called on her, "Cart" Carmichael shooting seventeen of the free chances. Carolina drew 13 fouls, Park shooting 11 of them. The fouls shooting of both men were among the features of the game. Billy Carmichael walked away with honors when it came to chalking up field goals. The big guard shot al most at will, some of the five shots he caged being from difficult angles and drawing enthusiastic applause from the packed gallery. S. John son for State was possibly their best men, and had it not been for the close guarding of McDonald would have run up the State score to a much higher figure. As it was State was able to secure only two field goals during the first half, and only three during the last period. Goal shooting was not a State specialty, the fowr.rJs, and all the rest of the State team missing easy shots time after time, and several times the ball almost went in the basket only to roll around the hoop and drop back down to Captain Carmichael. Near the end of the last quarter a change was made in the line-up, Captain Carmichael going to for ward, Neamon to center and Mahler to guard, Perry and McDonald going out. The new team played a good game and Carmichael looked mighty good as a forward. He is undoubt edly the fastest floor man seen in the state this year, and one of the finest looking basketball players in the South Atlantic conference. He has what the sport writers call "form." Perry came back strong in the The members of the committee are State game, getting three field goals still anxious for suggestions from land played a hard and fast floor students and faculty members. If any one has a suggestion, it is asked that he mail it to any one of the following men on the committee: T. L. Warren, W. E. Horner, C. L. Moore, J. Y Kerr, C. J. Williams, Jonathan Daniels, W. D. Carmichael, and Robert Frazier. game. Green was off in his shooting, Johnson the State guard hanging on him like a leech most of the time, while Billy Carmichael did the shoot ing. About the only features to the (Continued on Page 3) Carolina May Lose Several Men Counted On For Baseball Squad Fred Morris and Captain Llewellyn May Not Return and Roy Morris and Shirley May Also Leave "Red" Johnson Will Be In Shape to Play This Spring. Two of Carolina's best bets for the coming baseball season, Fred Morris, third baseman, and Llewellyn, pitcher and captain of the 1922 team, have left school. They however may re turn before the opening of the base ball season. It has been rumored around the campus that two, or possibly three others may leave, on account of finan cial difficulties. The rumor, however, cannot be verified. Morris and Cap tain Llewellyn have gone. Llewellyn left the Hill to attend the Theta Chi convention in Richmond, and return ed to Winston-Salem. He may come back to school before the quarter is finished. Morris went to Gastonia on a business trip, but has not re turned, and will likely be away for the rest of the quarter, if not the rest of the year. "Red" Johnson, star football play er, and one of Fetzer's main outlooks for varsity baseball, has returned to school after being in Watt's hospital for three weeks. He was suffering from blood pouon caused by an ab cess on a tooth. He is back in con dition and will go out for baseball in the spring. He is attending classes this quarter and will register next quarter, and is expected to play some where in the infield. Bryon, one of Carolina's best pitchers, is back, and will be out for the team. He was one of the main stays of Fetzer's team last year, and will be depended upon to start sev eral of Carolina's major games this season. Spruill, last year's first baseman, has in an application for coaching freshman basketball. He will not be out for the team according to his own statement, although he is eli gible. The freshman team last year had some promising material on it, and practically everyone will be out for the varsity this year. Regardless of the several of last year's crack nine leaving, Carolina promises to have a strong team. II I i ( 1 1 ' V I i " ,.. i ,1, 5 T
