Third Floor of New West;
- Modeled after Senate
un aeeount of the illness of the
speaker of the Dialectic senate, the
formal dedication of the Society's new
quarters was postponed from last
Tuesday night, but tonight at 7 : 15
the Senate will receive the Hall with
the proper presentation and dedica
tion. The new hall is one the third
floor of New West building.
During the winter quarter, the Uni
versity drew plans for the remodeling
oi wew West building, and at that
time, the Di Senate approved a set
of specifications which had been
modeled after the Senate chamber of
the United States senate. The hall is
a very good model of the Senate's
quarters except that it is drawn on
a smaller scale and is without the
gallery. , ,
The new quarters are well appoint
ed with a large number of portraits
of 66 of the leading political leaders
of the state who at one time were
members of the Dialectic senate.
These valuable pictures have recently
been hung and now the hall is in
shape for the formal dedication to
night. '

NEW MEN WANTED
FOR THE STAFFS
OF LOCAL COMIC
Dead Line for Copy for Old and
New Men Set at April 29 ;
Writers and Artists Wanted.
Charles R. Jonas
Andy Anderson is issuing a call for
new men for the Buccaneer staff. The
staff of the Buccaneer is usually re
cruited at the beginning of each year
but this year an- attempt is bein
made to start the new men off earlier
in order that they may begin work
at once when the next scholastic year
opens. 4
No rules are laid down for writ
mg copy for the Buccaneer, Andy
says. One can follow the general type
of material already published in the
local comic but the particular need is
short stuff. There is nothing in par
ticular to tell the new men, the edi-
f tor states. They have to learn to write
humorous copy if they don't' already
know how so there will be no meet
ing of the new men
All material to be submitted by staff
aspirants must be dropped in the copy
box joutside the Buccaneer office in the
basement of Alumni by April 29. This
copy will be graded and some will,
in all probability, be used in the last
issue of the year,
The full name of the man trying
out for the staff should be signed to
his contribution, his class and his sum
mer and present school address. Any
amount of copy may be submitted but
it must be original and not copied
from any source. About three type
written pages is a good contribution
from which to judge a man's abilities
The copy should be typewritten but
contributions submitted in long hand
will be considered.
The names of the men who show
promise will be turned over to editor-
elect, Bill Perry, and he will keep the
men in touch with plans for next
year's Buccaneer. , , '; :
All copy for old and new men' must
be an by April 29. Men wishing to
try out for the art staff may also
submit sketches to be turned in by
April 25 in the Buccaneer copy box.

NOTED SENATOR
SPEAKSONIGHT
Judge Winston Will Present the
Speaker in Gerrard Hall
- at 8:30 O'clock. x
W. H. S. Burgwyn, of Northamp
ton county, , mentioned as one of the
foremost candidates for the nomina
tion for the office of lieutenant-govern
or of North Carolina in the coming
Democratic primary, will speak to the
students on the subject of "True De
mocracy" in Gerrard Hall tonight at
8:30.
Mr. Burgwyn is considered a very
able speaker,- and well acquainted
with governmental affairs. He has
represented his section several, terms
in the state legislature, having exper
ience in both houses. He was a stu
dent at the University, getting off
both his undergraduate work and law
work. He has been for several years
a trustee of the University, and has
always shown a great interest in af
fairs . pertaining to this institution.
Judge Winston, well known as a
"Freshman at Sixty," biographer of
presidents, and other activities, will
present the Senator. i
richness of color characterize the ex
hibit of thirty-one oil paintings, water
colors, prints, and drawings being ex
hibited in Person Hall by the South
ern States' Art League this week.
The pictures are for the most part
by southern artists and are conse
quently rich in material of the south
land. South Carolina and Texas have
contributed largely to the exhibit and
have sent in some of the best pieces
that are in the collection.
The paintings exhibited range in
value from work of rough amateurish
ness to pieces showing a genius of
composition,, form, and treatment. In
the group of oils, there are two pic
tures which deserve merit for their
evident impressionalism. Both these
are studies of the dark Tare which
have cast a romantic light upon the
South for many years but are just
now coming to their own in the field
of- art and literature. ' One of these
paintings, "African Nocturne," is by
a North Carolina artist and is espec
lally good for the impressionalistic
qualities. The other, "The Argument,'
is the work of a Maryland painter
Both are rich in the qualities which
clearly define nothing but suggest
much to the appreciative art seeker.
Probably the best work of the oil
group in "March Landscape" by Moore
of Washington, D. C. ; it- shows true
genius of color blending and harmony.
T4-, l .' m , .
j. cLumas,, uy a xexas painter, is a
rich study in color, . richly blended
blues, red, -and rose.
Of the water colors, two pieces done
by H. D. Pohl of San Antonio are es
pecially noteworthy. Both of these,
"An Old Mission Door" and "In a Mis
sion Chapel" are rich in subdued col
or. The .artist has a delicate treat
ment of light andxshadow which: is
faintly reminiscent of Maxfield Par
rish, although entirely different.
Of the prints and drawings, only
two stand out as especially notewor
thy. The print, from an etching by
Murphey of "St. Phillips Church,
Charleston, S, C." is illustrative,, of
this type of art and very similar to
the work exhibited here by Mrs. Ver
ner some months ago. . The drawing
of "Paul Green" by a local artist, is
also especially interesting to the local
art lovers and observers.

Dean C, T. McCormick and Profes
sors M. S. Breckenridge and Albert
Coates, of the Law School Faculty,
leave Wednesday, Aprif 24th for
Washington, D. C, to attend the 6th
annual meeting of the American Law
Institute.
. This institute is an organization of
judges, practicing lawyers, and law
teachers. Its purpose is to frame an
authoritative re-statement of the vari
ous branches of the law, in the hope
that it will reduce the confusion and
conflict in' the varying decisions of
the courts of the fortyreight states.
The institute is now engaged in re
stating the law of contracts, agency,
and conflict of laws, and in drafting a
code of criminal procedure.
Chief Justice W. P.- Stacy of the
Supreme Court of North Carolina is a
member of the institute which incju'des
such other notable jurists as, George
W. Wickersham, Chief Justice Taft,
and Judge Cordozo of New York.
Special invitations have been receiv
ed by other members of the N. C.
Supreme Court, and by some of the
leading members of the bar, to at
tend the meeting of the institute.

the boys who attended the recent high
school debates and track meet. Ac
cording to Mr. Leonard, between four
and five hundred high school students
were assigned places to stay.
The Y. M. C. A. cabinets and the

they enjoyed in their college days.
On the morning of June eighth the

(Continued onpage four)
Tryouts for "Whoops M'Dear"
will begin at seven-thirty tonight in
Mmorial Hall.
Every new development in this new
Wigue and Masque production, writ
ten by Gene Erwin and Al Kahn,
promises to make it one of the most
brilliant and interesting things to be
done by the organization. The addi
tion of girls to the cast for the first
time, is expected to enrich the show
and give an added zest which has
been needed to complete the quality
of the Wigue and Masque offerings.
Daggett, Malone and Weaver have
written music for the new play which
will doubtless make a big hit because
of its brilliance and tuneful charm
and snap. If titles are to be valued
for anything, the composers have out
done all their previous compositions
for local musical shows. "My Cullud
Mammy Told Me," "Fishin' for Some
one," "Ancient History," and "Buc
caneer Bustle" are among the musi
cal numbers which have been arrang
ed especially for the coming produc-
tion.
The twenty-four scenes comprising
two acts of the revue offer just as
much pep and variety as is being pre
sented by the music. The titles hint
at a full evenine- of hilarifv rA
Z M. J M&iK
amusement; "Hello' Sucker," "Fixed,"
"Diogenes Looks at the Ladies."
"The Rat in the Rotunda," "Daddv
uoes A-Hunting," and "Clippings"
are only a few of these titles.
A great deal of the setting for the
revue is to be done in the modern man
ner and is being designed by Gene
Erwin. Special lighting and color
effects are being arranged to make
the production the most artistic and
brilliant to ever be given here. The
costuming is planned for the ultimate
in beauty and effectiveness. In fact,
no expense or effort is being spared
to make the revue a production of ar
tistic and entertaining value.
The results of the tryouts tonight
and tentative casting for "Whoops
M'Dear" will be announcd in a later
article. It is hoped that a large num
ber of girls, as well as all the male
talent on the campus, will take ad
vantage of the new Wigue and Mas
que policy which has been initiated
in order to give the campus the very
best in the field of musical shows.
Miss Elsie Crew who is teaching at
Rich Square was the guest of Miss
Blanche Armfield Friday. Miss Crew
came up with her high school debaters.
Buccaneer Art Work Features
Exchange Number; Much Verse
-0-
Jokes Are Well Selected But the Cover Colors Do Not Look Well;
Best Made Up Issue of Year; Ranks With the Best;
Many Comics Represented in This Issue.
o- '
The modern school boy's conjuga
tion of Latin now runs something like
j this: hie, haec, hokum.
(by john mebane)
, The Exchange Issue of the Bucca
nee'r is much to our liking. The edi
tor is to be commended for the best
made-up number of the entire year,
The majority of the jokes are well-
selected and the cuts are excellent. On
glancing at the cover, however, we
bring our lauding to a jerky stop. The
comic covers are well-arranged, but
the colors used are quite inharmoni
ous. Black and blue always struck
us as being sign of a mishap. Almost
any color available would have blend
ed very nicely with the blue,' except
the one used, but we are at a loss on
whom to heap our censure.
The frontispiece drawing is well
done with the exception of the male
dancer's right arm. The body of the
figure is not large enough to conceal
the entire arm. But that is a minor
point. The verse beneath it has a
rythmical swing which appeals to us.
The pencil sketch of the- woman's
head on the next page is one of the
most artistically-drawn sketches in
book. We commend the artist for his
knowledge of shadings and lines.
- Act Work Features
The art work is the feature of the
issue. There are only two cuts which
deserve other than praise one f roni
the Flamingo and th other from the
Burr. The pen and ink drawing en
titled "The Faculty Drag" taken from
the Columbia Jester is probably the
best cut in the number. The verse
underneath, though, detracts . a bit
from the beauty of the page. There
are three full-page drawings all of
them are good. Babe French does a
clever bit of work in a line drawing
taken from the Voo Doo. We have
noticed other of Miss French's work
in the Voo Doo, and we congratulate
the comic on having such a skillful
artist on the staff. The Buccaneer is
indebted to this publication for four
f of its cuts.
Jokes Varied
There is quite a galaxy of verse
throughout the issue twenty-seven
poems, in fact one or two of them
tending to border on seriousness, but
the. majority consisting of the usual
silly jingles. A goodly number of the
jokes contained within the covers
might easily rank with, and perhaps
overshadow, those antediluvian tales
escaping from one cheap hotel lobby
to another with the begrizzled trav
eling man as transporter. Some, how
ever, are of the usual type of college
comic cleverness. The variety of taste
on the local campus will probably be
satisfied by one type or the other.
Ranks with Best
A large number of the college hu
merous publications are represented
in this issue, and the Buccaneer shares
laurels with the best of the Exchange
Numbers edited by the comic maga
zines of the colleges. Andy, we ap
plaud you for your labor which made
this issue possible.
