JB. H. Marshall, Jr., President of the
University band, issued a statement
Wednesday explaining the financial
campaign that members of the band
are now conducting, in an effort to
obtain funds , to purchase uniforms
for the organization.
The University, faculty and stu
dents, seem to have long been undivid
ed in a strong opinion that the Uni
versity band should be equipped with
uniforms. But no benefactor has of
fered the required amount in cash,
and the University has had no funds
available. This year, though, talk has
been stronger than ever for uniforms,
and urged on by this the members of
the band decided to inaugurate this
campaign, Marshall said. '.
"Several phases of the campaign
are already under way, and progress
ing with fine success," Marshall said
yesterday, "and we now want to make
an especial appeal' to the' student
body for their support.
"We propose a free will offering: to
be made by the students at-the pep
meeting Friday night before the
Georgia Tech game. No man will be
personally solicited. And. no one will
be embarassed by this offering. Large
boxes will be conveniently placed, and
the students are simply asked to give
what they feel they want to give and
can give.
"If every student would give a dol
lar, the fund would be well on towards
completion: But we are not making a
dollar the limit either up or down.
Every man give what you can, and
feel assured thereby of a whole heart
ed appreciation from the band."
This entire campaign plan, Marshall
says, has the official approval of the
President of the University, the Busi
ness Manager, the Alumni Secretary
and the President of the Student body.
.The faculty has already been can
vassed and is responding in a fine
way. Merchants of Chapel Hill are
being asked to contribute, and are
responding. A ' full account of this
Vill be published later. The Alumni
will also be given an opportunity to
assist."' ..
Those in a position to judge such
things have assured the band officers
that they feel this campaign can be
put across. But" it will be a case of
every man doing his part. And with
out a really earnest response on the
part of the student body the project
will prove an impossible one. But
with a wholle hearted response on the
campus to use as a lever, the rest will
become much easier, Marshall feels.
" The band hopes to complete the
campaign and place the order by the
middle of next week, to assure delivery
in time for use at the Thanksgiving
game in Charlottsville and at the
Duke game which follows here.
An Institute of Politics will be
held here Friday under the aus-'
pices of the North Carolina
League of Women Voters and the
University extension department.
There will be a meeting at 2:30
p. m. in Gerrard hall and another
at 8 o'clock Friday night. Mr.
Frank P. Graham will outline the
Democratic platform at the first
meeting and M. S. Breckeriridge
will outline the Republican plat
.form. - v;- - ;s-"
V At the 8 o'clock meeting Mrs.
J. Bordne Harriman of New York
and Mrs. Elbert Russell of Dur- -ham
will be the speakers. A Cor
dial invitation is extended to
students and townspeople 1 to at-'

The discussions of the Dialectic
Senate Tuesday night were centered
around Alfred E. Smith. Senator
Caton introduced the following reso
lution: - "Be- it resolved that the
Dialectic Senate go on record as pre
ferring - Alfred E. Smith to Herbert
Hoover for the Presidency."
"It is unnecessary to . say that hon
est government is desired by the
American people. Yet Dr. Nicholas
Murray is the only Republican in
whom I have confidence and he has
come out for Alfred Smith." Senator
Taylor Bledsoe made these state
ments in defense of his favorite.
"Alfred Smith stands for the Demo
cratic Party, while Hoover represents
Republican rascalfty," declared the
Senator. : He - said that the, matter
of oil scandals has already been5 dis
cussed for" a great whilev but new
complications are developing all the
time. , During Harding's administra
tion Congress began to smell like oil
whenever the President mentioned
the subject. The Senator was of the
opinion that the whole Republican
party is tainted , with Sinclair's oil
money. "

PROF; KOCH GIVES
TALK IN CHAPEL
Advises Freshmen To Con
tinue to Be a Freshman.
!' Always. -
The Barrere Little Symphony Or
chestra, which appeared in concert
here last night in Memorial Hall at
8:30 p. ml lived up to its reputation
as being the finest small orchestra in
the world. There was no question as
to its ability, and there was no doubt
left in the minds of those present as I
to the excellent quality of their per-1
formance. Each artist is a recognized j
virtuoso, and Barrere himself was
wonderful beyond words. His name
which he has made for himself of be
ing the world's greatest flutist fits
him well. . His excellent technique, and
the remarkablle facility with which
he played even the most difficult num
bers marked him as master of his art.
The Chanson Triste by Tschaikow-
sky and Troika by the same composer
proved to be the most popular of. the
numbers rendered, and the harmonic
effects and tonal colorings presented
in the other numbers were highly ap
preciated by the audience.
-About 200 people were present at
the performance. It was held under
the auspices of the University of
North Carolina music department, of
which Professor Paul John Weaver
is the head. ) V

"The greatest 'thing in life is keep

it. That is being a freshman con
stantly." As a part of this talk on
the theatre, Mr. Koch said. "Those
ofj, you who come now, don't have the
experiences we had. You have only
the 'movie. But thank God for the
movie, for if you didn't have that you
would have nothing.
"There is now a revival of the thea

are coming to town; -more, and more
the colleges and schools are taking up

is unique. The Carolina Playmakers

has acquired national fame. Some of
its accomplishments are: two volumes
of plays, the first of which has had
three editions ; the second, two. It
has placed before the nation and the
theatre the drama of the Carolinas."
In closing Professor Koch said that
