SMITH OPPOSITION
Carolina Team Convinces Judges
That New York Governor is
the Man for President.
One of the largest crowds that has
ever been present at an intercolleg
iate debate at the University of North
Carolina filled Gerrard Hall Satur
day night at 8:30 -when North' Caro
lina met the University of Alabama
and won the decision on the query,
Resolved That Governor Smith of
New York should be elected president
of the United States.
Speakers for the affirmative were
Taylor Bledsoe of Asheville, and J.
C. Williams of Erwin. Those for the
negative, Clanton W. Williams and
Hubert Hayes of Alabama- ,
Judges for the debate were professors-
Gregory, Hubbell, and Vollmer
of Duke university.
Professor George McKie and Ralph
W. Noe of Beaufort were the presid
ing officers.
At the same time Saturday night,
reports came from New Orleans show
ing as a wet Smith town they had re
sponded with -a record audience at Tu
lane where Charles Jonas of Lincoln-
ton and John Mebane of Greensboro
were defending the negative side
against the Louisiana debaters.
Until this debate Carolina and Tu
lane, who have debated for ix years,
have. tied. But the decision in favor
of the Tar Heel debaters this time
gives Carolina the victory of the se
ries.

Nomination of Candidates Today
Continued from first page)
These offices include president, vice
president, secretary and treasurer of
the individual classes, in addition to
the class representatives on the stu
dent council and on the Athletic asso
ciation. t - Politics Quiet
Politics have been unusually quiet
so far this year, but it is expected that
the campus will be stirred up into
the usual feverish activity after the
nominations today. According to
close observers, one big frame-up
seems to almost completely dominate
the political situation to date. Under
the remarkably placid surface of the
political pool a strong undercurrent
of clever manipulation has been de
tected, according to these observers.
The comparative political calm this
year is the natural reaction to the
open politics agitation and the ex
traordinarily heated political cam
paigns in connection with the election
of last spring, in the opinion of those
familiar with the trend of campus
politics. '
in late winter," yet through thst white
curtained window comes light ms keen
and direct as if the play was being
scened on a summer's day. The mel
ancholy effect is somewhat muddled
on account of this, but the quality of
the acting is more clearly demonstrat
ed. The actors had this to orercome.
though perhaps they didn't realize it,
and their success was thorough. One
feels that Miss Pieratt has read Ibsen
too consistently just as it is quite
likely that Miss Dirnberger is influ
enced distinctly by Wells and his crew
of lusty prophets. And ii is quite
likely that she is not.
The concluding play, A Shot-Gun
Splicin', by Gertrude Wilson Coffin,
is most pleasing of the three. ' The
characters are types, but they are
more than types, and Mrs. Coffin's
characterizations are excellent. The
play as a play is slight. It was writ
ten to be played. One understands
that the author has made the play
a rack to hang her exlraordinary dia
lect upon, and that is reason enough.
The play may be a comedy and a trifle
burlesque at that, but it is truthful
and entertaining, and much more con
vincing than the mountain tragedies.
Which is to say that, though it is a
variation of an old theme, it is a splen
did variation. Honest comedy is ex
traordinarily difficult and the success
of this play is a distinct achievement.
There is nothing lacking in the post-
office setting. Jhe detail is complete.
The Playmakers must have had the
political posters especially printed for
this production.
The plays 'were precisely cast and
acted with considerable understand
ing. Harry Russell as the prophet
in A New Eve went through a stren
uous part in an unusually spirited
manner. Charles Lipscomb as Fate
Gaddy in A Shotgun Splicin' and Mrs.
Coffin as the lead in her own play
were quite all right. These three
starred. Mr. Lipscomb carried dif
ficult parts in two plays with equal
ease. The acting as a whole was bet
ter than fair. Miss Dirnberger in
her own play wavered only seldom.
The California play needed several
more rehearsals, but the cast shoved
it through all right. Josephine Shark
ey played Sarah Kroan, the wife;
Katherine Darling was cast as Molly,
her sister-in-law; and Helen Dortch
was billed as Molly's daughter. Hu
bert Ueffner, playing SHffenson, .
old mountain pedlar, added a new
twist to the hackneyed interpretation
of this mediaeval type. Walter Spear
man played Pink Gibson, a loafer;
Lola TTtrdsa was Dkey Badfori, a
motinUia girl; Moore Bryso was
Amos, her brother; and Edwin Day
W2i3 a fiazaboyant, kewhisltered politician.
