"Things Kinda Calmed down Considerable
At the University," Ancient Resident
Tells Reporter; Not What It Used To Be
"Yes sirree, they're killing all the
joy of freshmen at this here seat of
learning," Cyrus Slocumb, ancient
Chapel Hill resident, declared yester
day afternoon as he sprawled across
his favorite soap box in front, of
Crowder's Variety store. Cyrus had
hitched up his suspenders another
notch and taken a fresh jawfull of
cut plug when he saw the Tar Heel
reporter approaching, for he is al
most as fond of talking as he is of
loafing; . '
"Didjo notice the newfangled trash
cans that they stuck around on-'the
campus today? The big city kind,
vou know, with the do-funny little
slats in the side that you push innerds
when you put something in the can.
They're scrapping the old open cans.
'Salways been one of the primariest
joys of a freshman's life to throw
a match in the old open cans and
watch the paper burn."
"And that ain't the half of it," the
town's champion loafer continued, ex
pertly squirting a stream of amber
juice into a crack in the curbing.
"They hasn't been hide nor hair seen
of a snow fight this year. A'course,
,-jgw hasn't been exactly plentiful
'roun' here this year, but jest the
same they would of been pne started
somehow if freshmen was like they
useter be. Why I mind me of the

Time.
GAME CALLED AT TWO
Kenan Field Will Be Scene of
Last Winter Practice Game;
Cerney and Fetzer Leading
Squads.
Carolina football followers will
havea chance this afternoon at 2
o'clock to see the team in action that
turned back Davidson, Duke, and Vir
ginia last fall. Ferrell, Young, Cap
tain Morehead, and McDaniel will be
in Carolina togs again this afternoon
and there is a possibility that "Rab
bit" Bonner, star of ' former years,
will be given a chance to gallop over
Kenan Field.
The Monogram - Non-Monogram
clash this afternoon will be the finale
of the winter football practice sea
son. Much Interest was shown in win
ter practice games, and the contest
this afternoon that will hold state-wide
interest, indicates to some extent
Carolina's prospects for next year.
Coach Bob Fetzer is handling the
monogram men, while Coach Bill Cer
ney will handle the youngsters. Coach
Fetzer will have captain Harry
Schwartz at center with Shuler and
Farris at the guards. The same two
tackles that lined up against Virginia
last Thanksgiving will oppose Coach
Cerney's eleven, - Morehead and How
ard. Odell Sapp and George Mc
Daniel will hold down the flank posi
tions on the monogram team. In the
backfield Steve Furches will be at
quarterback with Gresham and Ward
at the half-back posts. Billy Ferrell
will be at fullback. ' -
Coach Cerney will send a line com
posed of Nelson and Patterson, ends;
Evans and Adkins, tackles; Black
wood and Hudson, guards; and Lipscomb,-
center against the veterans.
The greatest strength of this line will
be in the center, for Hudson and
Blackwood were outstanding on the
freshman line last fall and Ned Lips
comb has been starring during the
winter practice session. The non
monogram backfield will be composed
of Erickson at quarter, Nash and
Phil Jackson at halves, and House
at full. -
The officials for the contest will be:
Referee, Ashmore (111.) ; Umpire,
Belding (Iowa); Headlinesman, Way
(Carolina); Field Judge, Pritchard

campus got at least one black eye and
one set of frozen fingers every time
there was a snowfall. I've seen 'em
start off slinging snowballs at noon
and not leave off till it got so dark
they couldn't see what they-was throw-'
in' at.
"They tell me that the record for
one freshman gettin' dumped this
year is seven times. Why, that's a
crime. I recollect when they was
sum'thin wrong if every freshman
wasn't histed out of bed at least six
times a week.
"'Nother thing. They ain't been
a single drunk seen raising merry

been nary a one shipped for playin'
poker. They ain't been a single Gold

"Naw, the crop o freshmen has
been kinda tame this year, sort of,
an' things has been mighty quiet. No
sirree, things is kinda calmed down
considerable. The old University
ain't what it useter be."
When the reporter finally succeeded
in -making good his escape from the
talkative Cyrus, and looked back over
his shoulder at the old man, he was
still shading his head and ruminating
to himself on the deterioration of
freshmen and the campus in general.

JAMES A. REED
Senior Dance Date
Moved to April 14
The date of the Senior Dance
has been changed from May 18
to April 14 according to a state
ment made yesterday by D.
Ed. - Hudgins, president of the
class, on behalf of the Executive
Committee.
The change was made chiefly
because of the closeness of the
date first decided jon to that of
the Finals of the year, which
would likely result in lessening
the success of the senior hop by
preventing the presence of many
girls whose schools would be
having commencements about
that time.
This announcement was re
leased prior to the holidays in
order that all members of the
class might have ample time to
invite girls to the Hill for the
occasion.

DANCE PROGRAM .
WASJffiGHTFUL
Misses Cook and Folliard Gave
Enjoyable Enterpretation
of Folk Dances.
A presentation of most unique
..charm and colorful beauty describes
the program of . Eastern European
Folk Songs and Dances, with which
Misses Ellenor Cook and Eugenia Fol-
j Eard captivated their audience in the
Playmaker ' Theatre on " Thursday
night.
This program was of a type entire
ly new to the vicinity and one rich
in folk lore, colorful music, and beau
tiful costuming. One of the most in
teresting features was the singing of
the songs in the native tongue of the
countries they represent, after be
ing explained in circumstance and
translated into English. By their
clever enactment and sympathetic in
terpretations, the performers made
their listeners feel as if they were
actually journeying through the pic
turesque and romantic countries. All
of the songs were sung with feeling
and skilful interpretation by Miss
Cook, who has a voice of lyric soprano
quality. 1
Dressed in the ornately hand em
broidered costumes of Czechoslovakia,
the young artists gave a group of
songs, including "Sedlak," 'The Post
man," and "The Blacksmith"; a piano
duet and solo, Dvorak's "Slavic
Dance" and Liszt's "Hungarian Rhap
sody"; and danced the Czechoslovak
ian Beseda.- As is characteristic of
the whole program, the numbers of
this group were skilfully presented.
