D. W. Connor, vice-president ; C. E. Rozzelle, secretary; Fred . O. Bowsm. sero-pant-at-arms. The new board of directors that was also elected at this meeting are : Y. Z.

Dr. Abernathy retired at the Wednesday meeting 'as presi dent of the club, after two years of service. New President To Trustees - The new President of the Uni versity will probably be elected at the Commencement meeting of the trustees here in Chapel Hill next month. This is what the newspaper correspondents learned day be fore yesterday' in Raleigh after a meeting of the trustees' com mittee which had been charged with the duty of recommending to the board men suitable for the position. ' Three members of the com mittee (A. H. Graham, chair man, Leslie Weil, and Charles Whedbee) were present; Judge John J. Parker and Stahle Linn were not present. The uncertainty that still en velops the affair is' illustrated by the remark which Mr. Graham made to o'ne of the correspond ents. "I do not know how I should vote myself if I had to vote today," he said. The committee was not in structed to recommend any one particular man, but to present the names of several whom it re garded as capable; It is said that as many as 15 or 20 names may be laid before the trustees. It is surprising how, little dis cussion about the presidency there has been in Chapel Hill in the last few weeks. The com munity was all excited about it NIVERSITY MEN ' SPEAR AT 'DUKE Deliver Papers At Meeting Of State Branch Of Academy Of Science. Presenting many different types of papers, various depart ments of the University are well represented at the 29th annual meeting of the North Carolina section of the Academy of Sci ence at Duke University yester day and today. At the mathematics section to be held this morning at 11 o'clock, five out of the six papers to be read were written by mem bers of the local mathematics department. The authors of these papers are J. W. Lasley, Ernest L. Mackie, L. E. Bush, A, S. Winsor, and Edward T. Browne. The.,, physics department will be uniquely represented in its proper section in the fact that every member of the staff who lias been attached to the depart ment for more than a year will have a paper read at the meet ing, morig the authors of these papers are Otto Stuhlman, head of the department, and M. D. Whitaker, O. P. Hart, M. G. Braun and P. E. Shearin. Practically all of the; papers in the chemistry section' of the Academy were products of the local department of chemistry. The departments of "geology and botany are also represented by several papers. Among those contributing are Collier Cobb; head of the geology department; W: C. Coker, head of the botany department; and W. F. Prouty and J. N. Couch. J. B. Bullitt of the school of medicine and Carleton S. Preston of the school of education will also read papers. With Si xt eeo. ' Be Chosen At Meeting Early In June immediately after President was an Chase's resignation nounced; then the excitement seemed to burn itself out, and days on end have passed with out any general discussion of the presidency. R. D. W. Connor is still talked of in Chapel Hill as the member of the faculty mostj likely to be chosen. In fact, since the withdrawal of Frank Graham, no other faculty mem ber buif Mr. Connor appears to be, seriously considered. Prece dence points toward the selection of a man already here. Since the, re-opening of the University in 1875 every president has been chosen from among the fac- ulty. - Another person who has been frequently suggested for ; the presidency is Ivey F. Lewis of the University of Virginia, who was graduated from the Univer sity of North Carolina in 1902. 'And another is' Edwin Greenlaw of Johns Hopkins, formerly dean of the graduate school here. , Now and then one hears the proposal that, instead of elect ing a president this year, the trustees make a temporary ap pointment of a chairman of the faculty. The news from the meeting in Raleigh, however, in- 1 dicates that this course -will not be followed. AM MA 22 Uli liJiii Colorful Dances of India, Java, Japan, China, and Cambodia Will Be Presented. v One of the most interesting announcements of the year is that Ruth St. Dennis ' and the Denishawn Dancers will appear here on the evening of Thurs day, May 22, under the auspices of the Carolina Playmakers and the Chapel Hill branch of the American Association , of .Uni versity Women, the performance to be given in the stadium. In a program of solo and en samble dances, embracing only a few of the numbers which have been so popular in the past that they would be sorely missed if they were omitted, the world famous dancing star will exhibit her latest creations. A notable novelty by Miss St. Dennis will be the "Bas-relief Figure from Angkor-Vat," the inspiration for which was gained when she visited the city abandoned "centuries ago by the vanished race of Kymers, but which still ranks' with the famous temples of India and the Pyrafnids of Egypt among the architectural wonders of the Eastern world. Another neW number will be the visualization of a Tagore poem, in the course of which Miss St: Dennis will speak the poet's exquisite verse. Colorful and spectacular dances of India, Java, Japan, China and Cambo dia will be offered. For once the many local admirers of this great artist will have an oppor tunity to see a comprehensive list of her. finest creations in a single program. At one ime Memorial was used as a gymnasium. hall APPROPRIATIONS FOR UNIVERSITY jCUT 20JPERCENT Running Expenses Must-Be Re duced $175,000; Tuition May Be Raised. SALARY SCALE PRESERVED For its running expenses next year the University is to have $175,000 less than the $875,000 appropriated by the last legisla ture. This is the 20 per cent, cut decreed by the budget com mission for all state institutions. After allowing for a contem plated decrease due to probably lower enrollment, and for the increase in expenses in the. form of contractual obligations, the University wrill have a mainten ance fund for next year (July 1, 1930, to June 30, 1931) smaller y ?100,000 than the mainten Just how the deficiency is to be made up is not yet decided the details are to be worked out but the likelihood is that there will be savings" in the non-instruction budget, an increase of $7.50 in the registration fees of every student, and kninerease Of $50 in the annual tuition fee of every student from outside of North Carolina. Thus it is hoped to provide for ,$50,000. The remaining $50,000 will have to be saved by reductions in the clerical and instruction person nel. Reductions, in the instruc tion personnel may.be brought about by not replacing, teachers whoJhave resigned and- not - pro-, viding substitutes for some of those who are on leave. President Chase, Charles T. Woollen, Robert B. House and members of the executive com mittee of the board of trustees met at the Governor's office in Raleigh Wednesday. The Gov ernor told them that the cut in the budget was necessitated by a deficit in the state's revenues, and he discussed with them the nature of the savings that might be effected. ,The effort will be made and the University administration thinks it will be successful not to make any reduction in the es tablished scale of salaries. Plii Beta Kappa To Conduct Initiation The regular spring initiation ceremonies of the Phi Beta Kap pa scholastic fraternity will be held A Thursday night, May 15. The interesting program will feature an address by Profes sor Frank P. Graham in Gerrard hall at 8 o'clock. All old and new Phi Beta Kappa members are requested to hear Professor Graham..

These three speakers are asked to confine their presentation to a maxi mum of 25 ''minutes so that the speaking will be over in an hour to leave time for questions, and discussion following. ' This symposium is intended to awaken wider, interest in re ligion in generai and to illus trate the relationships and dif ferences '.between these three dominant faiths of American people. To point, out .the jplace religion holds in the experience of our people and its part in the development of western civiliza tion; especially is it designed to enrich the spirit and attitude of tolerance between differing re ligious groups andto increase the frequency of cooperation be tween them ; to bring more knowledge of our own as well as the other fellow's religion and a consequent deeper apprecia tion of ours and that of all others. The public is invited to this meeting, and asked to bring any questions on religion w7hich they would like to ask these three speakers. Bring these questions written out so as to have them read from the platform. If questions arise during the speakr ing which you would like to ask, write them down and have them ready to turn in to the chairman.
