LECTURE ON 'CITY
PLANNING' TONIGHT
Morris Knowles Speaks In Phil
lips Hall v Auditorium
at 8:30.
Morris Knowles, eminent city
planner, will give 'an illustrated
lecture 'on "City Planning" in
the auditorium of Phillips Hall,
tonight a eight-thirty,, under
the auspices of the Willian Cain
chapter of the American Society
of Civil Engineers. .
Among the other important
commissions that Mr. Knowles
has held are Chief Engineer of
the Housing Division of the
United States . Shipping Board,
member 'of the Engineering
Board of Review of Chicago San
itary District, member of Zoning
Commission of the United States
Department o f , ' Commerce,
Chairman of 6ity . Planning Di
vision of the American Society
of Civil , Engineers, and the
author of "Industrial Housing"
and many professional papers.
Although the lecture will be
directed along engineering lines,
it should be of great interest to
the general public. las,.,city plan
ning has a close connection to
fine arts as well as to engineering.
One of the largest delegations
of girls ever; present on Bynum
Gymnasium. floor was .the fea
ture of "the first Grail dance of
the spring quarter, which was
held Saturday evening in honor
of the initiates of the order. The
affair set a pace which, if main
tained by succeeding dances, will
make the incoming social sea
son, one of outstanding enjoy
ments ..'J.v 'KX .
Many girl schools are having
their holidays at this time, and
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Virginia, and even Florida and
Connecticut were well represent
ed by charming feminine talent.
Solo dances, attractive decora
tions, and practice of the Grail's
policy of admitting only a lim
ited number of stags were big
factors in the evening's unques
tionable success.
Guy Fulp and Patton Abbott
did not find the atmosphere of
the gymnasium too romantic to
make them forget their acro
batic skill, for during intermis
sion they entertained the crowd
with an interesting set of clever
and difficult gymnastic stunts.
The Buccaneers v kept the
"pep" constantly alive from nine
till twelve, and everybody en-
thusiastically responded to tneir
syncopating rhythm. The ball
room was decorated with green
and white'' streamers, and white
lattice-work at the entrance pre
sented a strikingly effective novelty.
LARGE AUDIENCE
HEARS ORCHESTRA
SUNDAY CONCERT
Reviewer Finds It One of Unex
pected Merit and Ability
Schubert Appreciated. "
(By John Marshall) y..
A large audience and one that
showed evidence of appreciation
listened to the concert of the
University Orchestra, directed
by T, Smith McCorkle, Sunday
afternoon in Memorial Hall. The
program consisted of von Flo-
tow's Overture Stradella, Schu
bert's Symphony in B minor, a
Gluck gavotte, Ballet Music from
Smetana's The Bartered Bride,
and Slavonic Dance by Dvorak.
. vThe concert was one of unex
pected merit and ability. Con
sidering the prodigious amount
of work that must be put into
practices and rehearsals, even by
full time musicians, to produce
a symphonic orchestra, the tech
nical ability of each choir , and
the orchestra as a whole Was
unusual and satisfying. Mr. Mc
Corkle's conducting showed a
thorough and carefully valuated
knowledge of his orchestra. He
directed with all the . firmness
necessary iri an orchestra's first
appearance, but was never ob
trusive, j
. Schubert's . unfinished Sym
phony in B minor, the second
number of the program, though
orthodox in form is one of the
best examples of Shubert's spon
taneous melodic beauty. The

event of the day, the half mile.
Over. 1,500 spectators witnessed

Two conference records and
one state record were shattered
by the cindermen of both teams,
Carolina contributing two of the
record breakers and V. P. I. one.

CONTROVERSY HAS GREAT
VALUE, SAYS BRADSHAW
"The time spent on the recent
gambling issue was hot wasted,
as some members of the faculty
have declared", Dean F, F. Brad
shawisaid in Chapel yesterday
morning. ' -jlo handle an issue
yourself is the only way to
profit by it."
Dean Bradshaw stated that
the administration feels that in
governing themselves the stu
dents are receiving an educa
tional by-product pf the Univer
sity, ; He outlined the two kinds
of government, that by experts
and that by theorists. The sys
tem of Student government now
in effect on the University cam
pus is the only sort of govern
ment of this kind in the United
States.

men are in the running for posi
tions. :, This year's race promises
to be the . hottest in several
years as a number of unusually
strong mn are, out.
Frantic last minute politicking
may .be noticed about the cam
pus this .week as politicians go a

witness the usual scouring of

Season i on. Emersoa
Field at 4.
The Tar Baby track team will
open its collegiate season this
afternoon at 4 :00 with the fresh
men from Duke furnishing the
opposition. . .
The Tar Babies " have been
working out daily with their
varsity brothers for the past
month or more, and present in
dications point to the best f rosh
track team that has represented
the University in the past few
years. About three weeks ago,
the f rosh met and defeated the
powerful team from Charlotte
High School, but they have been
idle ever since. -
Little is known about the qual
ity of the Methodist freshmen,
but it is rumored that they are
unusually strong in the sprints
and the distance events. Since
Carolina's strongest men are
found in these same two classes,
the meet should prove a "battle
royal for points, .
