Wedncsda , February 4 , i)2") Page 4 THE TAR HEEL KOCH CRUSADERS HAD GOOD TOUR (Continued from page one) their lighting, properties and stage. The lieiul of the Town theiiler told them they were not needed, walked to one of the boxes? mid the result was that four of he direetors of the Town theater in tux edos shifted scenery. Ernest Rriggs", producer of the Tony Sarg Marionettes, saw the production in Atlanta anil endeavored to book a coast-to-coast tour for the Playmakers next spring. Major Shaw, who is con nected with the Theater Guild of New York, came to Atlanta expressly to .see the production mid declared himself to be highly pleased with the creditable work. . In Savannah, the home town of George Denny, the business malinger, they were given quite wi innovation. ()ue of the members of the cast, Buy;. Heffner, got left, in Columbia and had to ride 30 miles in taxi to catch the train for Savan nah. He was left again in Savannah, where lie spent the night with Hilly Bourne, an old Carolina st'mlent. Mr. Dennv declared that he had never taken a belter group on n tour. The seven actors and the five; on the' pro .1. ...,? l,:,rl, Ili the plays, "Fixin's" seems to have been most warmly received. , At Pinchurst, even though there were no curtain calls, the applause after this play lasted for "more than five minutes. The Atlanta ConI H it! hn says : " Fixin's' gripped the onlookers until-the walls of, the theater inelled into mist and we lived in the bare shack the Carolina tenant: farmer called bis home, and we felt our hearts wrung by the tragedy of the life." "When Witches Hide" and ''Gains nnd Gains, Jr.," were also highly praUol. The latter has been performed 37 times during a period lasting alittlf more than a year. STODDARD IS TO LECTURE TONIGHT (Continued from page one) "Numerous attempts," he writes, "have been made to give a scientific status to t lie feeling of racial difference and par ticularly to the claim of Nordic superi ority. In these attempts use is made of historical data, of descriptions of na tional character, and of psychological tests to which 'individuals of different races have been subjected. In none of these discussions, however, do we find a concise and definite answer to the ques tion of what constitutes a race. "Unless the component races are fun damentally distinct the attempt to iso late in an old stable population distinc tive racial types delermined by descrip tive characteristics is an almost insolu ble task. We cannot assign one indi vidual to one race, another to another, because -f. do nut know the degree of variability, found in the ancestral iso lated races, and on account of the long continued mixture the characteristics of the parental races will appear in vary ing combinations in each individual. All attempts to establish among members of the same social group' correlations be tween mental character and bodily form have failed." . ' Mr. Stoddard will' lecture in Gerrard hall on Wednesday evening at :3fl. The public is cordailly invited. MONEY REQUEST GETS TRIMMED (Cmitiniiid from pag mm) has too many staunch supporters in the general assembly to let the opportunity pass The budget committee also made huge slashes in the requests of other institu tions. Briefly, the commission recom mended maintenance appropriations for charitable and educational institutions totalling .?28,03(),Rt2 for the next two years, representing -a decrease of nearly $5,000,000, over revised requests; and if recommended appropriations of $3,030, Kf2 for buildings and permanent im provements,, representing a cut of ap proximately. $7,000,000 over requests.' This' $3,030,84.2 is the balance allotted to educational' institutions under the $20,000,000 educational bond campaign of 1921. ,77io University' Calm The University's case, In brief, is stat ed something like this: That while $17, 000,000 of the. total of $20,000,000 allot ted in the bond bill of 1921 for buildings and permanent improvements for charit able and educational .Institutions has been spent, this amount has not been apportioned in proportion to the original request made." Certain institutions have already received more than their toto request in 1921. These excess appro priations amount to $1,519,000. In addi tion, institutions not represented in the original bill at all have received $809, 000. On the other band, the University, which had the $.y80,000 request incor porated in the bond bill, based on a care fully itemized statement of needs that would naturally arise, has received 3, .1 10,000, or only Off per cent of is orig .' intil request.

On the northeast and southeast, will be two more banquet rooms, each 21 x 2t feet, ninkinir it possible to have six ban quets going on at the same time on the second floor, all served by dumb wait' its from the kitchen. , ' Tentative plans also call for one cor ner room 22 x 23 feet and a room adja cent to it 12 x 22 feet, to be reserved for student publications. There will also be six offices, each 12 x 21 feet, for the use of student commitecs on publications or any form of student activity. The entire second story will be finished with oak flooring and most of the offices will have sky lighting in additio'n to window lighting, and a ball arranged as convenient as possible for the Use of the student body. .:'.'.

The interior of the building will con form to the best tradition of colonial ar chitecture, and the interior will be car ried out in the same style as well adapted to the social needs of the student body. . Winn fr 1. M. C. A. The future additions will he a portico and two wings. The portico will extend across the entire front of the building with a roof supported by eight limestone columns and the floor paved with brick, forming '.-a' pleasant outdoor sheltered lounging place. It is expected that the south wing will be built and occupied by' the Y. M. C. A., an end for which officials are striving very hard at present. They are petitioning the Rockefeller Foundation for part of the necessary funds, unit tentative plans have already been made for this' wing. The north wing, when built, will pro vide more rooms for social needs. The Graham Memorial building is ad mirably located as a meeting and loafing place for students and others whom it will serve, it being so near the post office, lihr jirv, chureltu-s, ami down town pencr- ally. Dr. I,. It. Wilson, secretary of the Grab am Memorial' fund, gave the fol lowing figures in connection . with the financial part of the work: Total pledges in subscriptions from alifmni, students and friends to December 31, $292,729.98. Portion of total pledges due December 31, $175,000. ' Amount paid to December 31, $118,831.11. Amount due December 31, hut unpaid, $3G.10U89. Interest on the money to the amount of $13,2(52.77, plus $118,831.11, gives a sum of $132,093.88 with which a cam paign to collect pledges and building operations have been carried on up to the present. A rough estimate of. the cost of the entire building is $100,000. With two men working and 1,500 letters being sent out each month to collect pledges, it is hoped that enough money can be at tained to keep the. construction going until the building becomes a complete realization. 1 v.

PLAYMAKERS GIVE FIRST FREE SHOW (Continued from page one) witch. Her pantomime is perfect. George Denny as Juke does some competent act ing, aided much by the best make-up of the evening. Hay Heffner playing Un cle Benny and Aubrey Shackell as Ed are negligible and serve only to detract from- the attempted atmosphere. In lleffnerVcase, this is somewhat the fault of the script. The sketch is not Strong enough to carry so much comic relief. Nevertheless, when we recall George Mc Kie in the same role, we cannot assign all the fault to the script. The second play, "Fixin's," by Paul mid Erma Greene, rivals William Cox's "Scuffletown Outlaws" as the best play of the Playmakers repertoire. Frances Gray deserves a great deal of credit in both cases us Lilly Robinson in the for mer she takes every advantage" of s re markably fine vehicle to create a charac ter which brings wore than' a fleeting memory of Ethel Barryniore. in a similar role. A'ubrey Shackell,, playing oppo site, is little- less successful and does piece of acting creditable enough to make lip for his flatness in the. two other plays. George Denny plays the part of the suc cessful, land-grabbing farmer very' real istically. The atmosphere of the whole play is sustained and realistic, even to the odor of frying grease coming from the cook-stove. ' The third playi "Gaius and Gains, .JrV causes us to pause; We have seen it sev eral times before iis had most of Mon day night's nudience and it is not a play, to merit second attendance. The same! indefinable quality which has kept Abie's Irish Rose on Broadway for three years gives this play a popular appeal. It is not good; but it "gets over." Here we will have to leave it, lest we repeat former critics.' The Playmakers, of course, were not catering to a local public in the selection of the plays for this performance. How ever, the three were well balanced as a program to take on an out-of-state tour: a 'sketch of .folk superstition, a tragedy, and a comedy.- The Playmakers are to be congratu lated on their success, and those who are capable of .appreciation -should ap preciate their gratis performance Mon day night. On the whole, it. was very pleasing. Mr. Hard's orchestra assisted materially in making the enter-acts even more pleasant than parts of the plays.

While Spencer Murphy, editor of the Yackety Yack, is not giving out any of the features that he is' planning for the 1925 annual, still the gentle Orange county breezes persist in picking up scat tering hints as to some of his pet hob bies and wafting them through the win dow into the Tar Heel office. For instance, Pete has laid the clever plan of running a beauty section. Each of the various girl colleges in the state are to select the prettiest girl in school and send her picture to Pete. .'Pete, in turn,, is to Include it in his all-state beauty line-up.
