"Mum's the Word," and the
Secret Will Be Told on March
Fourth and Fifth.
By J. E. DUNGAN
The Wigue and Masque Club Will
very shortly bring out another of
their annual reviews. This time the
production is to be called "Mum's
theWord." The- date at which the
secret will be divulged to an eager
public has been set for the fourth
and fifth of March."
Just what the nature of the re
view : will be is not very generally
known. However, it is being! said
that the talented Al Kahn, who has
written the book and the lyrics for
the production, has woven his plot
around college - life, the ( scenes be
ing laid in fraternity and sorority
houses. Why most vvriters of col
lege tplays believe that fraternity life
far f overshadows any' other phase of
mystery to me.
. The music for "Mum's the "Word"
4has been composed by Wex Malone,
who I believe did the job on "Whoops
M' Dear," the review sponsored by
the club last spring; and which did
a good business. , .
The costuming of the production is
being cared for by Mary Dernberger,
(than which there is no more' compe
tent person in the, student, body" at
,the present time.
Tryouts for parts in the Wigue and
Masaue review will be February 4
Pete Wilson, president of the organi
zation, announced yesterday after
, noon. He especially invites all per
sons desirous of taking part in the
production to notify him at an early
date of .their intention of doing so.
According to all intent the cur
rent review will be the most expen
sive, elaborate, and magnificent musi
cal comedy, that, has ever been at
tempted on the Hill. r : '

Van Hecke Speaks on
Recent Developments
In Legal Education
A
Professor M. T. Van Hecke; of the
Law school, spoke before the Forsyth
County Bar Association, at the Forsy
th Country" Club of Winston-Salem a
week ago on "Recent Developments in
Legal Education." Sketching the ef
forts, especially at the Columbia and
Yale law schools ' and at the new
Johns Hopkins. Institute for the study
of law, to supplement the case-method
of legal study, with the'study of ma
terials other than cases , and statutes,
he indicated the significance of the so
called "functional approach" as com
pared with the "conceptual, approach"
to the study , of law in ' four connec
tions: (1) the reorganization of the
law school curriculum; (2) investi
gations and results of legal rules, and
of the .new practices not as yet the
subject of litigation ; (3 ) the intro
duction of research-work as a substi
tute for formal courses -in the second
and third year classes; and (4) active
co-operation between law t school
facilities and research staffs and the
bench and bar on the study of specific
measures' for the improvement of the
law. At" each stage, he indicated the
extent to which the Law School at
Chapel Hill was experimenting with
these innovations and others of its
own creation. v
Approximately sixty lawyers and
judges .attended the meeting, includ
ing ten orHwelve who' had studied
under xProf essor Van Hecke when he
was here, before, from 1921 to 1923.
The man who is a bore and knows
it and acts accordingly can make him-
