the rainy weather and by ten-thirty
a good crowd had assembled.
The ballroom was decorated only by
a huge Kappa Alpha banner at one

Many local, state and out-of-state
girls were present and Mickey Block's

Titian Blondes Will Meet Thursday Night at Parish House to
Organize Red-Headed Club; May Aid in Preserving
Color Effects of Fires
(by G.)
Young men who have been lightly
kissed by the crimson rays of the set
ting sun, or, in other words, red-headed
guys, are asked implored, pleaded
with and demanded to attend a meet
ing for the purpose of organizing a
red-headed club, according to a notice
which appears elsewhere on this page.
Diligent investigation has revealed
several motives for the forming of
the club. It took several trips to the
down-town district of Chapel Hill to
gather the dope, but the indefatigable
reporter, ever on the hunt for useful
news for the world-weary readers of
this journal, refused to be discouraged.
As a result, we can report on good
authority that the club will assist the
full-time fireman of . the metropolis.
And don't ask "Which metropolis?"
like that. If you don't believe this
one, take a look" at the sign on the
Durham road, near the outskirts of
this place. It says: -"Chapel Hill
City Limit" so it must be so.
To return, however, to our research,
we can announce that the club is ex
pected to help the firefighters materi
ally in their efforts to put out at least
one good fire a day. It seems that

Miss Paul Dillard of Durham is premier danseuse of the new
Wigue and Masque revue, "Whoops M'Dear," to be given Wednesday
and Thursday nights in Memorial Hall. Miss Dillard's dancing has
featured in many productions at National Park Seminary, Washington,
D. C, and in other entertainments over this state. Reports from re
hearsals of the revue say that Miss Dillard's dancing will be one of
the bright lights of the show.
LAST TAR HEEL TO
APPEAR ON MAY 31
Thursday, May 31 will be the last
publication date of the Tar Heel this
year. - -
The volume consists of ninety-two
issues and today's number is eighty
eight. This information is given for
the benefit of all those who wish an

in these columns. -
Nothing definite has been done a
bout the summer Tar Heel. Last year
Jud Ashby edited the first summer
school Tar Heel and it was well re

to be some trouble this year in fi

volume. . .
RED HEADS NOTICE
All 'students who possess red hair
are asked to meet at the Parish
House Thursday night at 8 o'clock
in order to form a red-headed club.
If your hair is only silghtly red be
at this meeting.
in an exclusive interview with your
correspondent, that he- thought , she
ought to have something to say about
the way the fire department was run,
seeing as how he haz had so much
experience with some of our best fires,
and the way he almost had his woodm
en leg burned off trying to save that
jug of of milk in the Pickard fire
earlier this season, and his years of
faithful service leading the Student
Razzing Section in behalf of the vol
unteer firemen. t
Mr. Himplewiff grew quite excited,
but after a few moments quieted down
and-went on to explain that the pres
ent force has been offending his aes
thetic taste for some . time. "The
Fire Department of Chapel Hill now
on duty," he said, iis voice rising in
an emotional crescendo, a blonde,
and it don't fit in with the color
scheme of the fire house nohow. How
can we have efficient fires when the
thing ain't done right? Everybody
knows red don't go with yaller, and
if we're agoin' to have so many fires
in Chapel Hill, they might as well be
done right." ''
The club, therefore, is being organ
ized by Mr. Himplewiff in an effort
to preserve the color effects of our

Class of Play Production to Pre
sent Performances in Play
maker Theatre on May 28
and 29
On Monday and .Tuesday nights,
the 28th and 29th of this month, in
the Playmaker building, the English
class of play production, English 36,
will stage six plays. Three of these
plays will be given on the first night,
the 28th, and the remaining three on
the, next night.
The plays and their directors are:
"Brothers in Arms" E. S. Day
"Coccain" T. P. Harrison
"The Impertinance of the
Creature" Miss Mary Holland
"The Mirror" J. C. Price and
WVW. Ward
"Francois' Luck"
Miss Mary Margaret Ray
"The Constant Lover"
Miss Isobel Wenhold
This group of plays is not connect
ed with the Playmakers. The student
directors are producing the plays by
themselves, picking and directing
their own casts, choosing their per
sonal stage crews, and setting up their
own scenery. Unlike, the Playmaker
productions the plays are not , folk
plays. They have been picked by their
respective producers.

Marilee Shaw does the mother whose

"Someday" is a song by the ensem
ble and is perfectly good with the
writer. Graham and Erwin do their
stuff and the chorus gives it depth.
Really, it's quite good.
And then "The Blonde Peril." Now
everybody wants to see Lib Davis
manipulate her properties as the hard
boiled gal who's got a poor sick little
brother. v
We told you about "Afgan Kauzau

there's nothing more we can say in
favor of this than has already been
said but Afgan has been having a bit
of trouble with his pet lately. He
goes through his act well enough at
times and at others he just won't
work at all. Perhaps it's the spring
time that's affecting him.
But here is this "Ancient History"
skit that's been taking the eye. Bill
Dowrfs is the Dreamer and sings us
the thread of the skit. He has a good
voice and is supported by Tarasa Gra
ham, Emily Slade and Lib Davis. The
latter is the gal-chile with the blues
voice that makes the ear do all man
ner of strange things. When we heard
her the last time, we suddenly missed
the old right ear and found it later
on the campus hopping about like a
bird on a hot stove. It would never

ters on the campus hadn't been point

Pendergraft Motor Will Reopen

The distinctively Carolina Atmos

University campus and its surround

by the business district of Chapel Hill.
Negotiations are going forward for
the re-establishment of the Pender
graft Motor Company under a new
management and in a new home. Ac

tofore the plan of construction of the
business houses in the village have
been almost diametrically opposed to
the architectural style of southern tra
dition as. exemplified . elsewhere in
Chapel Hill. A company is coming
here which it is hoped will prove more
han a commercial asset to Chapel
Hill and should-add to the architec
tural nature of its surroundings.
Both the name and the location of
the new company are as yet unknown.
It is understood that the organiza
tion will be under the direction of
Ralph Pendergraft, J. F. Cooper,
Frank Aycock, and Herbert Pendergraft,-
Carolina students and .local"
business men. The site of the build
ing will probably be near the center
of town, and promises to be attuned
to its surroundings. The structure is
planned to be unique in its features
and somewhat removed from the usu
al commercial type of garage.
The new garage -will be somewhat
along the country club style with
shrubbery, fountains and the like. It
will be one of the largest garages in
the state for a town of thi3 size.
The company will deal in the prod
ucts of a prominent automobile manu
facturer. A recent fire has enabled
them to start with new equipment.
During the period of re-adjustment,
the company plans, to send a number
of its mechanics to Charlotte to learn
the latest methods of servicing auto
mobiles. X A o uu-
ing business at the former site, and
it is understood that temporary quar
ters will be constructed within a few
days in order to continue the business
practically uninterrupted.
