Robbins - Futility It is hard to think of a much more useless and thankless type of journalis tic endeavor than that of special column writing. ' Scarcely any one ever reads the line of bunk that the' poor column- lsf sweats over so hard to stretch out over 18 inches, more or less, or news paper space. When it is read, some one is pretty sure to take offense at parts of it, and only in rare cases do the readers see any merit in It. There have been some newspaper columnists who have pleased their readers, it is true, but they have always been few, and perhaps not over a dozen of them are still in the game. Meywood Broun, of the New fork World, seems to be about the most popular today. But his popularity is not for the average small town or coun try columnist whose main purpose is only to fill up just so much space. ' Misleading Headlines "New Fraternity 'Installs Friday." Thus runs an interesting headline in a recent issue of the Tab Heet. Quite naturally, one might expect to find be neath this startling announcement a big story to the effect that the mummy of Crusoe's good man had been found and was about to be presented to the Med chool by : Beta Splenda or Epsilon Up- silon Tappa. However, no such rare scoop follows, but only a dry announce ment that the twenty-fifth national is in our midst. In the last issue of last Thursday is a mistake that is not so humorous. In fact, it has caused no small degree of trouble and misunderstanding-. "Ag nostic Club Is Formed Here," this one proclaims. But the story plainly sets forth the fact that "the club has no official name." Pity the poor headline writer. His job of choosing just so many words of just so many letters to fit just so many different stories is not an easy one, and the headlines are sometimes mislead ing, the only strange thing about it is that more of them are not of that kind. Themes! Themes, themes, and more themes English themes, history themes, sociology themes, and themes on every other sub ject imaginable. Sometimes the Student gets thoroughly disgusted with this busi ness of writing themes. "Never mind about the topic," says the instructor. just write on any topic you want to." student who was rushed up pretty much the other day said that he was go ing to hand in a couple of , sheets of theme paper entitled "Nothing." FACULTY WILL TAKE PART IN FRENCH PLAY Five of the Eleven Parts in "Le Malade .

The Dean says that he will appreciate it if the finder will return his coat. Not that he wants the coat so bad, but there was a pair of spectacles in the coat that he would like to have as soon' as possible. The first tragedy in the . baseball league happened Wednesday afternoon. Jim Shepherd, catching for the S. A. E. team, had his fingr split in the first in ning of their game with the S. P.

In a close and hard fought game of baseball, the Carolina Tar Babies gave Wake Forest's Little Deacons a drubb ing to the tune of 6 to 5, Saturday after noon, on Emerson Field. The weather was ideal for baseball, and both teams show ed dash and fight hitherto lacking in freshmaii baseball games here this season. The Tar Babies long range guns found Gibson's easy pickings in the early stages of the game, and two singles, three doubles and three triples gave them five runs in the first three innings. In the mean time, Ingram was holding the Baptist sluggers to one run, this came as the result of a long homer into right field by Lassiter, The locals drew first blood in the open ing round. Ford, first man up, doubled to center field, went to third on a wild pitch and scored a second later on Fin later's infield out.

Typographical Errors "Blame it on the printers," slogan of .the editorial office. mistake in spelling or punctuation is re ferred to as "a typographical error." good deal of this blame is deserved, however. The printers get so used to being "raked over the coals", that they sometimes do not care if they do make mistakes. The Tab Una gets its share of these errors. . It is to be expected that a new staff of reporters and editors ill make a good many errors at the start, and they do, but of the mistakes the campus sheet during the past eek, at least 35 or 40 can be classed as nothing but printers' errors. A Popular Course Boston college recently incorporated, according to a report, a course in love and matrimony, This is intended to help young co-eds in the matter of ac quiring husbands. According to re ports of the registrars, if the story is correct, all application blanks for the course ran out before the close of the first day. This might well be tried here. Ideas Ideas are strange things. They are also elusive. When they do come, they take the form of the brain which they enter. A very beautiful idea may. enter the brain of a pessimist and be warped and twisted into something dark and gruesome. The optimist can take a vicious idea and raise it into something lofty and sunshiny. Perhaps, it is best, after all, to leave the execution of ideas to the Babbitts of the world. Five of the eleven parts in Moliere's comedy,' Le Malade Imaginaire, which the Carolina Playmakers will present next month in the original French, are to be taken by members of the faculty of the Department of Romance Lan guages!. Friday and Saturday, May 21 and 22, have been set as the dates for the two performances. ' The presentation of the play in the original language, with costumes such as were worn in the first performance of Moliere's play, marks something new 'in the way of play production, even in. the atmosphere of the University, which is however, accustomed to new departures in play production on the part of 'the Carolina Playmakersi It required vivid imagination on the part of Dr. Urban B. Holmes to con ceive that it would be possible to put on the boards here Le Malade Imaginaire, one of the most popular comedies of the greatest French dramatist of all times. Experience has shown his judgment to be thoroughly sound, for with parts as signed and rehearsals going ahead in full lin and Corpening for "J" pitched air-1 Jessup and Furches tripled in succession, speed, the play encourages high hopes that it will result in a brilliant triumph. While the interpretations may not be such as to cause the experienced actors of the Theatre Francais to turn green with envy, they compare favorably with those given by t roups less perfect than those of the French national theatre. Even a cast composed of less enthu siastic members would be spurred on to accomplishment by the untiring and dauntless energy of Dr. Holmes, who is directing the play. Dr. Holmes has had considerable experience witjt this play, having taken part in the presentation of it at Pennsylvania and Harvard. His interpretation of the different parts of Argan, the imaginary Invalid, is such as to bring gales of laughter from an au dience which could hot understand a sin gle word of French. . ,' Mr. F. J. Haronian, in the part of the suave, verbose,-charlatan, and Mr. Ra- doff, in the role of his stupid, expression less son, roll out their sonorous Latin medical phrases with such mock serious ness that one is tempted to believe that the august medical profession has de teriorated considerably in the las t few centuries, in spite of its important dis coveries. - ' The part of Beralde, the common sense brother of the imaginary sick man, is ad mirably rendered by Dr. W. M. Dey. Beralde perceives that the invalid is sick only on account of his own willingness to believe the quacks, and berates him for his credulity. Hearing the speeches of Dr. Dey is in itself a lesson in the way French should be spoken. Miss Elizabeth Henderson, in the role Of the beautiful Angelique, daughter of Argante, ' and Miss Mary Warren, In the difficult part of the mincing, impu dent, but serving maid, bid fair to ren der the parts in a way approaching perfection. Other characters taking part in the play are Messrs. J. C Lyons, J. A. Downs, and L. I. Wiley and Misses Caro lyn Oswald and Tarasa Graham. The costumes worn by the actors will be imitations of the ones worn by the actors of Moliere in the original presen tation, and every attempt will be made to preserve the illusion that the play is placed back in the middle of the seven teenth century. hit was garnered off their delivery. The hit was a single by Everett in the fifth inning off Sandlin. : Old West, last year's champions, ap pears to be a strong contender for the title again this jear. They : defeated Smith' 'and . New Dorms by substantial scores last week and their team has been hitting the ball to all corne'rs of the lot. "Red" Wliisnant, the star pitcher of this aggregation has been recruited by the Varsity, but the Old West crew have secured Zeno Brown to fill in the gap, and the' way in which he turned back the New Dorms' hitters Thursday seems to show that he is fully capable of doing so. The Kappa Sigma's have one of the strongest teams in ; the fraternity league. They have played two games, winning both. In the first game, Devin of : the Kappa Sigma's bested s Shuler of the Pi Kappa Phi's in a pitchers' duel by a score of 2-0. The game with the S. P. E.'s was a landslide for the Kappa Sigmas who got next to the of ferings of Ragan and put the game on ice in the first inning. "Sprodie'VCobb led the Kappa Sigma's in hitting in both games. The horseshoe tournaments will begin Wednesday afternoon. There will be two tournaments, one for the fraternities and one for the dormitories-. There' are twelve teams entered in the fraternity tournament and thirteen in the dormi tory tournament. A match will consist The same rules as were used last year of three singles sets and two doubles sets. will be in force again this year. K. G. Phillips will have charge of the horse shoe links. The links will be located on the east side of the gymnasium. ' Willie B. Everett and R. E. Bryan spent the week-end in Atlanta on a busi ness trip. . ,.. : ;';'...

Coach "Runt" Lowe left with his fresh man baseball team Sunday afternoon for a one-week tour through Virginia.'. The team will meet the strongest freshmen and prep school nines that Virginia has to offer, and it is hoped that the Tar Babies will be able to bring home the bacon in most of these contests. Lowe carried a team of sluggers into the Old Dominion this year that should cause the first year twirlers in that local ity quite a bit of worry. Most of the boys are hitting well above the .300 mark and a few have been clubbing the ball for an average ' very near the half cen tury point. Practically all' of these luds are long distance hitters and are apt to break up a ball game at any moment; so the oposition can not be sure that the Tar Babies are licked until the last man is out hi the ninth. ; They meet Washington and Lee at Lexington, May 3; V.

North Carolina and of former gra duates of the Law School here. The collection is under the super- vision of Miss Lucille Eliott, Li brarian of the Law School. A very attractively cabinet will be placed in the Senior Room of Manning Hall, which will contain the pictures of the former gradu ates and those of the Superior Court Judges. ; The School is now the professor of a large number of group pictures of its graduates and of many individuals. . It also has the pictures of the Supreme Court Judges in its present collection. :; : Miss Eliott is appealing direct ly to the families of the former "gentlemen of the bench", but in some instances she is having to' solicit the aid of the friends of the Univerjsty in getting these valu able portraits. ... : . ...i nH .... .... .i . , . . " o mruw irom iniieiu on Bean's roller. Finlater doubled to start the third and scored when Williams hit a long triple Into left-center. The latter was out trying to stretch his hit into a. home run. Then Jessup doubled and scored on Furches's single. This ended the scoring for the Tar Babies until the eighth frame when they put over the winning run on Furches' walk, two errors ' and an infield out. The Little Deacons got their first run in the third on Lassiters homer. They again counted in the fourth on an error, a walk and a hit, and they added aai other in the eighth on a walk, an out, and a hit. In the eighth, the Baby Bap tists threw a scare into the Tar Heel camp when they mixed three hits with an error to push oved two runs and fall just one point short of evening the count. Kllebee, Lassiter, Fu relies, and Kykcn- dule did most of the stick work for the visitors; these lads checked in with two bingles each for the day. Besides his good work at bat, Furches played a bril liant game in the field for Wake Forest, accepting six hard chances without a single bobble. . Foard, Finlater, Coxe, Jessup, and Steve Furches each got a couple of hits for Carolina. Ingram pitched a good game, and he went the full route, de spite the intense heat. With a little snappier support from his infield, he would have probably held the invaders to a lower score. Box Score: Wake Forest AB R H PO A E Bryan ss 1 ... 5 0 1 0 3 0 Ellerbee 3b ."
