CHAPEL HILL, N. C THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1S27
Summer School Edition, No. 1
U. N. C. Commencement Program
Closes With Award of Degrees
132nd Finals Most Successful in
History of University; 31,7
, Graduates Received Diplomas
Five Honorary Degrees Are
Conferred.
The ever new story of com
mencement was again repeated
at Chapel Hill during the past
week when for the 132nd time a
eroup of University of North
Carolina seniors went through
the process that takes them from
the world of books and studies to
a world of business, or as Par
son Moss put it when talking to
. the class "from i a world of
ideals tp a world of deals."
The regular commencemem
period opened on Friday, June 3
when at y:du A. M. the senior
class formed in a line in front
of Memorial Hall and marched
to Gerrard Hall for a short
prayer service led by Rev. Wal
ter Patton, pastor of the Chape!
Hill Metho,dist church.
Devotional Program
Mr. Patton admonished the
seniors that their lives would
never be larger or, finer than
their ideals. "Our lives flow out
of our thinking, our ideas, and
our ideals," he said. "Our
thinking is, the governing con
trol of all our deeds.
"Those who touch our civili
zation are called on to stand
alone for a vision he or she may
have seen," he continued. "What
ever the realm it matters not,
hut where there has been a pos
sessing idea, and where a man
has stood alone for it, he . has
won. It is this dare to do the
impossible alone that has
brought our civilization for
ward. The test of our whole
lives come when we are required
to stand alone and fight single-
handed." - '
Class Day Exercises
Following the prayer service
the class exercises were held
with C. E. Smith, senior class
president, presiding. The order
of the program was as follows
C. W. Kelley, Durham read the

LIPPMANN SAYS
NE W SOUTH WILL
PLAY GREAT PART
New York Editor in Commence
ment Address Points Out Dif
ferences in Situations Con
fronting .Modern Youth from
Those of the Past.
"Nothing, I believe, since the
opening of the West; has so
great a meaning to the f uture of
America as the profound trans
formation which is now taking
place in the economic structure
and with that in the political
and intellectual outlook of the
southern state," declared Walter
Lippmann, editor of the New
York World, Monday morning
in Memorial Hall in making the
iterary address of the 132nd
commencement of the Univer
sity. Stating that the modern
youth is to "be a part of an
epoch-making change," the
speaker pointed out how the ex
isting conditions of today differ
from those of the past.
Mr. Lippmann said there are
three major respects in which
the environment of the modern
man is unique. "He lives, first
of all, in a world where most of
the facts he has to deal with, and
where most of the forces that
affect him, are unseen. The
greater part of his environment
is invisible. His great grand
father, who lived in a village
community, could see with his
own eyes practically all the peo
ple with whom he had to do busi
ness. The main affairs of his
community were in the hands of
men whom he knew. The eco
nomic relations of his time were
between people whom he knew.
He saw with his own eyes the
farms, the workshops, the stores,
he market places, which affected
his livelihood. xne moaern
man's position is totally differ
ent. He works and sells his
goods to unknown people in a
distant market.
Knowledge in Constant Flux
The 'second respect which the
situation of the modern man dif
fers from that of his ancestor is
that there exists today no au
thoritative and organized body
of knowledge which it is pos
sible for any living man to ab
sorb, said the New York editor.
At the climax of the Greek civi
lization Aristotle could encom
pass the whole field of human
knowledge. At the climax of the
great medieval civilization St.
Thomas Aquinas could do the
same with the knowledge of his
day. It is no. longer possible to
present anyone with a complete

The music department, ac
cording to Director John Paul
Weaver, is offering more courses
in musical instruction at this
summer school than it ever has
in the past.
Miss Hazel Kinscella of the
University of Nebraska will con
duct a special institute in the
Kinscella class method of piano
instruction from June 13-25 in
clusive at the Chapel Hill graded
school. Miss Kinscella's method
is rapidly spreading throughout
the south.-' The department an
nounces that there will be a
special rate of fees for summer
school students.
Dalcroze Eurythmics will be
taught by Miss Nelly Reuschel
at the University Gymnasium,
instead of the Chapel Hill high
school building as had been pre
viously announced. Miss Reus
chel's hours of instruction will
be as follows: for adults, 7:00
a. m.; for young children, 8:00
a. m.; and for older children,
11 :00 a. m. "Dalcroze Euryth
mics is a use of the body as a
musical instrument for. the ex
pression of rhythmic action. It
is one of the best methods of ap
proach to the study of any musi
cal instrument, and is of great
general value to every student
through its power to develop
poise, complete bodily control,
concentration and relaxation,"
an announcement describes the
Eurythmics.
In addition the faculty of the
music department will give in
struction in music. Charles G.
Vardell, head of . the piano and
organ department of Salem Col
lege, and Nelson O. Kennedy
will give instruction in piano
and organ. Charles Troxell will
give voice instruction, and in
struction in instruments, es
pecially the violin, will be given
by T. Smith McCorkle. Mr.
Weaver announces that those
