"Taming of the Shrew",
(Continued from Pagre 1)
Dramatic Literature, in the role
Petruchio, was the outstanding star
of. the performance. Throughout the
entirp course of the "Taming of the
Shrew," Professor Koch captivat
ed. the audience with a splendid ex-
hibition. From the time he entered
to the time he departed, an appre
ciative audience applauded his clever
portrayal of Petruchio. Russel Pot
ter as Baptista Minola, a Rich Old
.. Gentleman of Padua, gave a very
creditable performance. ( The most
impressive and realistic scene in- the
performance was the opening of Act
I, in which Baptista and Petruchio
appeared in dialogue. The scene of
Act 1 is in the garden of Baptista
Minola, and the Forest Theatre's
natural background and a rare ex
hibition 'by Mr. Koch and Mr. Pot
ter produced a very realistic effect.
Josephine Daniel( Moore's portrayal
of Katherine is worthy, of honorable
mention. Possessing an unusual
amount of grace and charm, she
made a very, attractive "Katherine,"
but despite her ability and charm
there was a punch lacking. Theo
dore' Livingston's version of Griimto,
Servant to Petruchio, was fair, but a
bit farcinl at times. Among the mi
nor characters, the work of J. O.
Bailey as a Tailor,: Pearl Setzer as
Curtis,- an Old Lady Servant to
Petruchio, and William Cox as Adam,
a Servant to Petruchio was com
mendable. The Musicians, a quartet
consisting of F. W. Zimmerman,
Frederick Hard, - Cleveland ' Sessums,
violins, and. George Lawrence, trom
bone, made a favorable impression
with their droll playing, leading a
suitable air to the setting. The op
ening selection" extracted laughter
from the congregation.
The scene of Act 1 is in the gar
den of Baptista Minola in Padua,
Italy. A dialogue between Baptista
Minola, a rich old gentleman of
Padua, and Petruchio, a rich young
gentleman of Verona, takes place,
followed by Petruiyhio's courtship of
Katherine, Baptista's daughter. The
scene of Act 2 is a hall in Baptista's
house, in which the marriage of
Petruchio and Katherine is celebrat
ed. The scene of the closing Act
iff a rustic hall in Petruehio's coun
try house. Katherine is carried there
much against her wishes, and It re
sults in the 'final taming of the
Shrew.
"The Taming of the Shrew" is the
fifth play that has been produced in
the woodland theatre,' and is an ac
ceptable successor to former produc
tions. The following are the produc
tions of former years: "Twelfth
Night" in 1920, "Much Ado About
Nothing" in 1921, "As You Like It"
(staged by ' Legrande Everett) in
1922, and "The Comedy of Er
rors" in 1923. The presentation of
"The Taming of the Shrew" has a
peculiar significance in that 1923 is
the tercentenary year of the publica
tion of "The First Folio of the
Works of William' Shakespeare," in
which this play appeared. During
Shakespeare's lifetime, only a part of
his plays were published. After his
death, the only manuscripts of his
unpublished plays were in the hands
of his friends of the stage, who in
1623 salvaged them and edited "The !
First Folio of the Works of William
Shakespeare." . .
The cast of' characters in Monday's
performance was. as follows: ' Petru
chio, a Rich Young Gentleman of
Verona, Frederick H. Koch; Bap
t . tista Minola, a Rich Old Gentleman
of Padua, Russell Potter; Kather
ine, Daughter of Baptista, Josephine
,. Daniel' Moore; Servants to Baptista,

PHIL C. COCKE
SWIPES A PEN

Case. Only a Mock Trial.

DR. VENABLE TO READ
PAPER
Dr. F'. P. Venable, of the Depart
ment of Chemistry, will read a pa
per on the subject of "History of Sci
entific Research in North Carolina?
at the regular quarterly meeting of
the Sigma Zi society, to be held in
the Presbyterian church Friday ngiht,
The meeting will begin at 6:30
o'clock and will end at 10:00. '
Tried by a jury and found guilty of
prevaricating in the nth degree, Phil
lip C. Cocke, Jr., was forced to return
to Lawrence Brown a Duofold Foun
tain Pen which the former said he
found.
Attorneys Bourne and Hodges ad
mit themselves beaten by the sharp
tongue of Meade Field, a promising
young aspirant to the bar who hails
from Hertford. Mr. Field brought
out before Judge Fred B. McCall and
a jury of twelve men that Mr. Cocke,
the defendant, prevaricated in his
evidence," did not do his full duty in
attempting to establish ownership of
the pen found in his room but sought
through his lawyers to do his client
Mr. Brown out of a perfectly good
fountain pen.
Mr. Cocke picked up the pen off of
a bed in his room on which Mr. Brown
and Mr. Donnahoe had been having a
frinedly. tussile, waved the pen above
his head and called for the owner,
As no one appeared, he promptly
placed the pen secretly in his own
pocket. In the meantime Mr. Brown
was still scuffling and did not hear
the call, nor did he note Mr. Cocke's
sudden departure..
On seeing Mr. Cocke the next
morning he accosted him for his
fountain pen. Prompt denial brought
about strategy. He borrowed the
pen. Later he refused to return it. As
all the parties concerned were mem
bers of the law school they, deter
mined to try the case, loser to set
the jury, judge,' attorneys, officers
and witnesses up to drinks at Pat
terson's. Phil Cocke bought the
drinks.
It developed that Phil had not de
sired to find the owner after he had
called for owners. It was up to the
plaintiff to prove the pen his. Phil
accused Lawrence Brown of placing
his initials L. B. on the cap of the
pen while he was supposedly using it
on a quizz. Those who heard the
case earnestly contested by the
young lawyers were entertained by
the- real stuff. Professor McCall
stated that he had never heard a
better mock trial.

329 REGISTER IN
GRADUATE SCHOOL
The total registration in the Grad

compared with the total registration
last' year of 274. -This number . is
scattered over twenty different , de
partments. " "
Degrees from seventy different col
leges and universities are held by
these students; 85' are University
graduates 25 are from Trinity: 0
from Wake Forest, "and 17 from N.
C. C. W. Furman University sends
11, Converse 5,' Ra'ndolph-Macon 5,
and the University of Georgia 5. 35
students already hold master's de

The far-reaching influence of the
Graduate School is shown by the fact
:hat sixteen states and foreign coufrr
tries are represented:' ' Forty-four
are from South . Carolina, , - while
eight come from Georgia. f: '
Many of these students: are work

degree offered by an American uni

at commencement next June. ' Ance

John Hutchins, a former Carolina
star football player, spent the week
end on the Hill. Hutchins is now
captain of the Carson Newman team
and according to newspaper reports
he is making a splendid record, hav
ing received recognition from wait
er Camp as one of the thirty-two
best full backs in the country. John
states that Carolina is still foremost
in his mind and he regrets that he
is unable to be on the squad here this
year. Hutchins was one of the most
promising players at Carolina in
years but somehow his scholastic in
terest was not as great as his foot
ball ability.

guard suffered a broken collar bone
in the Penn State game, and will be
out for the rest of the season. Hart
sell has built his team almost en
tirely out of new men and frcxhrr .i
sent up from last year's reserves.
Thus far the wolfpack has lost one
game and won two. Her stand
against the "Nittany Lion" was oat-
standing and has brought much fa
vorable comment from Northern pa
pers. But at home she has won he5
two games by flukes intercepting
forward passes and making a touch
down before . the opposing team
knew what it was all about. And
right here let us offer up a prayer
to Monk McDonald that he please be
darn careful about passing that old
ball while deep in his own territory.
The University team is in shipt-
shape condition. Her first string will
be able to enter the game with no
injuries, with the e'xception of a few
scratches sustafnpd, over in Durham.
But Carolina is mighty shy of scrubs
that are equal to the Varsity, in fact
she is almost totally devoid of them.
If either Morris or McDonald were
to be knocked out there would be a
hard, hard fight' ahead.' Last year
Casey was upset in the very -first
play and was later forced out of the
game. ; Last year Carolina won but
this year a like accident might have
a different tale.
The game will not be a walk-away
for either team. Carolina has
more chances to win but State , is
playing on home ground and the
game is State's most important game
and she will fight to the last bitter
inch to win. Generally, Carolina
waits until Thanksgiving before she's
Grail Offers Prize
For New Carolina Song
Acting upon the well
known fact that the Caro
lina songs and yells are too
few and that new ones are
badly needed the Order of
the Grail is offering a prize
of $10.00 in gold to the stu
dent who composes and
adopts to music the best
Carolina song. The songs
will be judged by recognized
music authorities who will
declare the winner of this
prize provided his produc
tion is a creditable one and
will be accepted by the stu
dent body as a University
song.
The Grail desires a song
which will supplement
"Hark The Sound" one
which is full of pep and gen
uine college spirit similiar
to "The Spirit Of V. M. I."
or "Fair Harvard."
All productions are to be

October Carolina Magazine
(Continued from Page 1)
ment we would have.
The article entitled "What's It All
About" struck us as being an espe
cially good filler for the Freshman
issue of the Magazine. It was clear,
well-written, had an authoritative
personal touch, and presented one
side of a real problem. The editor
ial comment on this article was well
timed and pithy.
Mr. Pecksniff Duls apparently tried
to wax witty in his dissertation on
those we have with us, even as the
poor, the Co-eds. Sch are the. va
garies affecting human endeavor that
in his strife to acquire humor, he hit
upon a great truth, he called the
Tar Heel Board the "illiterati"! The
reflections ensuing this startling rev
elation caused us to pardon him in
great part for his article.
"Triology" contained some good
lines; though we refuse to try to un
derstand "this here" blank verse.
The issue contains nothing else
worthy of mention. A good many of
the articles in it were obvious fill
ers; but the very few really good
things redeemed its claim to some
degree of literary value.
The cover of the Magazine will
never .fir.d its way into an Art col
lection ; but is it not delightful to be
rid, forever, we hope, of indigoes,
glaring scarlets, and pictures of the
dear old well.
Our suggestions for future issues
include something, at least, in the
way of illustrations; and let us
whisper this in your ear, Mr. Edi
tor something in the editorials that
will give us a "kick." The com
ments this time are all right, of
course, only we want to be amazed!

Judge Winston For Debt
(Continued from page 1)
"Forgive our debts, as we forgive
our debtors," that famous passage
from the Lord's Prayer, was select
ed as his Biblical text. In truth he
did not deliver a sermon in the true
sense of the word, but sounded a
stirring appeal for action by the
American people, plus a tml of
Christianity which he declared has
not yet been tried in the world.
"Some business men will tell you
that Christianity has been a failure;
but Christianity has never been tried.
What I desire t do is to give Chris
tianity a trial by the simple method
of forgiving our debtors in short, of
cancelling the war debt," the JuHg
eloquently declared.
Judge Winston reached his conclu
sion that in cancellation of tbe war
debt Mes the salvation of problems
arising from the war, while in at
tendance at the Williamstown Con
ference. Attending that conf "em e
were Count Kesler, of Germany, a
were Count Keslre, of Germany, a
close personal friend of the ex-
Kaiser; Sir E. F. Crigg, of Great
Britain; former ambassador Henry
Morganthu, representing Turkey;
Doctor Harry Garfield, and other no
table churchmen with world-wide
reputations. Judge Winston made
the acquaintance of all of these men,
and while listening to discussions at
the conference, was stirred by the
conference motto, "The World is
Our Field." He desired to put this
feeling into practical application,
formulated a detailed plan for cancel
lation of the war debt, and sought
the advice of "experts," including
President Garfield, all of whom he
said agreed that the debt should be
cancelled.
' During the course of his address,
the judge showed an especial anti
pathy to people who he stated,
"are scared of losing their job3."
Politicians, he declared, are scared .of
losing their jobs, and hence the
common people who do not have time
to think for themselves, are deceiv
ed by them. College professors,
economists, diplomats, the clergy,
magazine writers, the newspaper
men, and several whom he hinted at
but did not name, "are scared of los
ing their jobs," the Judge stated, and
consequently proposals to canctl
the war debt, which nearly V.l ex
perts agree to be the correct solu
tion for the present ills of the world,
are hardly raised above a whisper.
Judge Winston's sermon was elo
quent and very witty. He used many
humorous analgies to illustrate his
points, in true Winstonian fashion.
He stated the opinion, following its
delivery, that he should go out and
speak publicly for cancellation of the
war debt, but did not state defini
tely whether he will do so.
The Judge, in his old age, a very
spry and active elderly gentleman,
is now attending the University,
where he is taking philosophy
courses under Prof. Horace Williams.
He is very active in the literary
field, having contributed within the
past few months timely articles to
"The Nation," and other magazines
of similar nature. Recently he con
tributed a very ably written article
to the New York Times' "Current
History" on the race problem in the
South.
During the course of his sermon,
the Judge expressAd his gratificn
tion a number of times concerning
"the atmosphere of freedom in the
University." And asked that the
University and North Carolina lead
in agitation for his plan.
