G, TUESDAY, 3IARCH 6, 192S NUMBER 61 (WW Q SONGS AND DANCES TO BE PRESENTED HERE THURSDAY Program of European Folk En tertainment to Be Given by Visiting Ladies. A program of Eastern European folk songs and dances -will be given by Misses Eleanor Cook and Eugenia FoBiard .in 'Memorial Hall at eight thirty Thursday night. This program of entirely unique folk material from Russia, the Balk ans, India, and other parts of the East, is being given here under the sponsorship of Phi Mu Simfonia, the local musical fraternity. This type of program is almost entirely new in the local entertainment field and is rich in the characteristics, moods, expression, and revelation of the coun tries whose music and dances are given. The entire presentation of dances amd songs is given in costumes gath ered in these countries and . brought to -America by Miss Cook. This young artist has made several trips to Eastern Europe to gather material, inspiration, and costumes for her pro grams. The program to be used here on Thursday night is made up of ma terial gathered by Miss Cook while oa .her trip to Europe last summer, at which time, she was requested to give the performance for H. M. Queen Marie of Koumania. Besides; the charm of far away countries ; and customs, the program carries an additional charm of the young ladies who are presenting it. Both are natives of Connecticut and attended Miss Porter's school, where they were classmates of a local young lady, Dr. 'Patterson's daughter. They are - both . talented musicians and eSancers, gifted with rare personality amd charm, and are both members of the Junior League, under whose aus pices they have appeared . in. a num t;pf :gputheripL; cities. r The music and performances of the artists have received a great deal of praise all over the country. A few quotations from the press will serve to show the esteem in which their work is held in various parts of the country: A Buffalo paper describes tfee program as, "A glimpse of flash ing feeauty of color and design that was inspiring"; a Scranton paper says, "One of the loveliest pictures tkat has ever graced the Century Club stage"; and the Miami Herald critic declares, "The songs are what folk songs should be fragile bits taken from life."

Miss Sharkey Gives Playmaker Reading Program of Irish Material Proves to Be One of Best Given This Year. The Playmaker reading for March proved to be one of the most delight ful readings given during the year. The program was varied and with the singing of the Irish folk-songs, it held the interest of the audience throughout the evening. The , program consisted entirely of Irish material. Poetry, folk-lore, ! Irish folk-songs, and a. play, The Traveling Man, by Lady Gregory, made up the evening's program. Miss Josephine Sharkey read with a complete understanding of her ma terial and the folk-songs sung by Mrs. Miriam Hilton? with Miss Anita Dar ling at the piano, were well received Three Tar Heels Fight Way To Southern Conference Honors PROSPECTS GOOD FOR BALL TEAM Nine Lettermen Back as a Nu cleus for University Baseball Squad; Practice Underway. With the advent of warm weather, Coach Ashmore has started regular baseball practice for candidates for the 1928 Tar Heel nine. Indications are that the diamond aggregation this year will be as strong as the 1927 state champions, for no less than nine letter men are back from last year's team and these are supplemented by a host of freshmen. The veterans are headed by Cap- tain J oe Westmoreland, whose mound ' tournament. While the af oremen duty last year earned him the cap-1 tioned Carolina ' stars were proving taincy of this year's team. "Red" i Ellison has had a year's experience; with the varsity and should go well j when called to the mound. Coach Ashmore has only one infield position to fill, third base. Tom Young, Burt, and Satterfield are back for the oth er three positions. . In the outfield, Mackie and Tom Coxe are back for duty, and as Bill Dodderer is also eligible for the sport, three experienced fly chasers are insured for the coming season. The Tar Heel mentor will have to find a catcher to take Bill Sharpe's shoes, but Jimmie Maus, captain of the 1927 freshman nine, has had several years of experience behind the bat and should relieve the coach's worries as to that position. Luf tie, who was in eligible last year, proved to be a cap able infielder while playing with the reserves and may play third this year. The Tar Heels have an unusually hard schedule this year, playing ail the Southern Conference teams in North Carolina, Virginia, and Mary land, besides engaging several power ful northern nines They hung up an enviable record last spring by cop ping the state championship, but with Wake Forest boasting a greatly im proved team, the 1927 champs may find trouble in annexing the title again this year.

It so happens, too, that New Dorms will figure in both of these final events. After winning i titles this year in cross-countrv. football, boxiner. and the dormitory crown in basketball, the lads from the Confederate Dorms bat- tied their way. to the top in these other two sports. The New Dorms and Kappa Sig- ma squads, champions of their re-1 spective leagues, will battle tonight in the Tin Can for the campus cham pionship. The game will be called at 8:30 o'clock and will bring togeth er some of the fastest cagers seen on Intramural courts this season. Following up tonight's contest New Dorms and Old West clash Wednes day night at 8:00 o'clock in the finals of the annual dormitory wrestling tournament. New Dorms downed Man gum 6 to 1 in the semifinal round, While Old West won over Old East Both clubs boast some fine grapplers, and the matches may be hotly contest ed.

Virginia Trails Carolina's 20 Points with 15 j Counters; Shuford, Brown and White Fight Brilliantly. "Ox" Shuford, Charley Brown, and Rufus White all fought brilliantly to survive the final round of the South ern Conference boxing tournament at the University of Virginia, last Fri day and Saturday, and to bring the Southern Conference boxing cham pionship to the University of North Carolina. The University of Virgin ia, last year's champs, trailed the Tar Heels' 20 M points with a 15 & score, to place second in the meet. The Heels and the Cavaliers were trailed in order by Florida, Georgia, and V. P. I., the remainder of the Conference representatives in the themselves the masters of their di vision, every one of the remaining Carolina seven won out - in at least one of the preliminary rounds to bring the Tar Heel score to winning proportions. The battlers who failed to weather the finals but who won the lower rounds were Coley, Sapp, Allen, and Captain Ed Butler. The biggest surprise of the meet was Captain Butler's loss to Weed of Virginia. This was the fighting Tar Heel leader's first loss of his career and news of his defeat was received with astonishment here. Butler had a decision from the Virginia bruiser earlier in the season, but the winner staged a great comeback to take the laurels from Butler after the even encounter had gone into an extra pe riod. Captain Butler's long layoff, due to an injury received in the Geor gia meet, wa3 a factor attributing to his defeat. In . order to be entirely cured for the Southern Conference tournament he had refrained from ac- tual scrimmage for about a month, and in the meantime his punch had lost its time and the famous old weav ing attack just wasn't functioning. In a consolation fight the Heel cap tain won a decision over Shensky of Georgia in three rounds. r- Odell Sapp went to the semi-finals before Bobby Hooks of Georgia out pointed him in an extra period. The ' big Carolina football star had pre-' viously won over Cross of Florida to enter the semi-windup affair. After entering the finals by vir tue of a three round decision over Kemp of Georgia and a bye, Cheatem Coley, Carolina bantam star, was out pointed by Miller of Florida after an extra round of furious fighting. Archie Allen in the lightweight di vision lost his first fight to Captain Frank Gilmer of Virginia but came back to win over Welker of Virginia in three rounds in the second round of battling. As to the finalists of the Carolina cohorts, "Ox" Shuford probably show ed more stuff than any man in the tournament. Shuf e got - one of the two K. O.'s of the meet. ' Miles of Tech got the other knockout when Gibson' of Virginia, a natural light- heavyweight, stepped into one of the blg Gobbler football captain's right smashes. But Miles met "Ox", in the finals and the local luminary had no troule in outpointing the V. P. I. representative m regulation time. Marsailles of Georgia was the man who failed to weather the three rounds with Shuford and went down for counts three times before the referee (Continued on page three) GUTHRIE TO SPEAK IN CHAPEL TODAY Field Secretary of Intercollegiate Pro hibition Association Visiting Here.
