Sunday, November 22, 1931 In the Provinces ' " The metropolitan press has long been wont to refer to rural sections of this great democracy as "the provinces," and, among those prejudiced sheets have been a number of large collegi ate dailies in population centers, who sartorically ape their pro--f essional kin, such as The Col umbia Spectator v ,, . ' The tfme has come for we ignorant and uncouth country Vmen to rise up against the snob ' -Jtosh constituency of the Fourth Estate and demand our rights as recognized members of the brotherhood, and not the clods , that our contemporaries seem to dub us. We feel our respon "sibility as "provincial" journal x ists, just as much, if not more, than the brethren of - the metro politan field. The small daily may not have the scope and vis ion of the larger press, but it undoubtedly has the range of influence on suburban popula-v- ,tion to a greater degree than . that of its elder brother. - History shows that leaders of industry and government hare arisen from the "provinces," and that the mass-opinion of the democracy has its birth in the outlying sections of the country. The small daily is a more gen uine dispenser of news, that is . not conflicting to the' several tastes and interests of , the - ma jority.'.. It is not controlled by . large power trusts with an eye for political' publicity. Its-enu y ployees are closer f to the public than those of the metropolitan newspaper and their 'interest is generally more "whole-hearted and genuinely concerned with the welfare of the community. - D.C.S. College Courses "Can" Coordination . As we review the books on our desk, we set up a wail over the utter uselessness of college. Our Economic System, William Shakespeare, Fundamentals of Objective Psychology, parade their flashing colors before our eyes, vieing with each other for our time and attention. They gradually, seem to take on the qualities of monotony and shal lowness. College begins to ap pear as merely the shallow dip ping into the numerous fields of knowledge, with no idea, of con necting the parts or retaining what is learned by the student. ; fThere seems to be no end of the facts crammed down a stu dent's throat without the least effort on the part of the school to coordinate the information. It is true that seniors in the schools of commerce and of lib eral arts must take examinations on the field of their major study, U,-,- coorn c n nn pfTnrt' . . . , , . -iJSonfirs in Costume," introduced to interrelate xms wnawjver , may be) and thejrest of the field of work.- The students affected by this ruling are forced to re member at least a part of their former courses ; but series of in dependent facts are easy to for get, ana" as4long as they remain unconnected, there is no point in remembering them. Thinking under the present fact-cramming system will al most invariably be reverie rath er than constructive mental ac tivity, aimless wandering from topic to topic without in the least connecting the two and drawing from them a conclusion. If the soup course of a dinner were served in its component parts a succession might result bear ing a close resemblance to the following : the -course would be gin with pepper and end with meat scraps and bones, while in between would come the carrots '(how we do detest carrots), the okra, the peas, and tomatoes. Not a very pleasant outlook for soup. Think now, how much more delightful is the prospect of the soup served as the perfect whole. Even the hated carrots become acceptable in the knowl edge that they perform a useful function in the making of so ex cellent a dish. Likewise, we may readily see how a particular subject in its grand and hauty isolation may be distasteful to anyone ; but when it is fitted into a plan to find truth, or at least a way to pursue it, the subject becomes at first bearable and then inter esting, v A knowledge of English grammar and literature could never have, produced a play of the proportions of Hamle Psy chology, history, politics-, phi losophy, and even etiquette and military science were all neces sary. We are willing to hazard that the writer had at least an elementary knowledge of music. Although we are in the midst of an.1 age of specialization, no edu cation in any field is complete without at least a smattering of the others, a smattering which miglt serve as a basis for the special knowledge of a chosen field. This is Rafter ajl the pur pose of a college education to form a foundation on which to build any further knowledge that may be acquired ;. so the base must be built broad and if at first it seems disjointed, the "stu dent must look beyond this aiid see, that a building is. going up in which each part fits above the others.-P'.W.H. A Politically Powerful Student Organization V With the recent organization of an Ehringhaus-forrGovernor club, students on this campus are given a chance to express them selves politically - and feel as though they have some part in xne aiiairs oi state, r or some time it has been a cry of tHe public that American youth takes no interest in political af fairs of his country, but is con tent to spend his time with (symbolically speaking) fudge and "football. , Students in England,; China, Spain and France all take an ac tive interest in political affairs' of their nation. In each Nof these countries the student vote is organized in such a manner that candidates have come to look upon the students as strong THE DAILY The Musical By SCOTT Doris Kenyon,- soprajio, and Alfredo San-Malo, violinist, gave a joint recital of unusual in terest-Friday evening in Page auditorium of Duke university, j The concert was the second of the season's series sponsored by that institution. The screen celebrity's contribution to the program, announced as "Lyric Silhouettes, 'An Evening of an artist whose histrionic capa cities somewhat exceeded her lyric, and a woman endowed with great beauty" and 'a person ality of rare charm. San-Malo's part in the performance reveal ed one of the great violinists. The music of Miss Kenyon and San-Malo was intelligently ac companied by Erno Balogh at the- piano. By reason of its ex ceptionally diversified interest, ,. , , , .: the program is given in full. PART I 1.

One must necessarily fall short in attempting to convey an impression of the enchant ing effects Miss Kenyon pro duced. One may draw atten tion to her linguistic achieve ments. One may say that, with the aid of unimaginably eye- filling costumes, she impersonat-! ed a variety of types with feel ing and skill; that her voice, While not one of any consider able range, or power, or even simple lyrical' beauty, was yet pleasing, "at times moving ;vthat her performance, in a word, re flected training, ability, and brains. But Miss Kenyon's suc cess lay essentially in two quali ties that can hardly be suggest ed : the great beauty of her person and 'the costumes in which she arrayed it, and the force of her personal charm. If, by some trick similar to one common in the movies, all the various Miss Kenyona who ap peared during the evening could support. ...'', In many colleges throughout the middle west, similar politi cal organizations have been formed and with encouraging success. Students are appar ently waking up to the criti cisms j)f their lack of political interest and are . showing 'them selves capable of putting their shoulders to the wheel. The Ehringhaus-f or-Governor club was only organized last week, but since that time a large number of students have ex pressed their desire to take part, showing that Carolina students are likewise interested in their state. Such a group as this has never been successfully organ rzedfon this campus" before, but with the interest now present a movement of this kind" can be instituted strong enough to sway the political power of this state. C.G.R. TAR HEEL University MABON have been assembled pn the stage together, the picture would have been a pageant. Miss Kenvon has by no means the power and finish of a Ruth Dra- ; but she made per serve her interpretations; and she threw all the sincerity' and skill of which she was capable into her work. Completely overshadowing, i Miss Kenyon as a musical per sonality was San-Malo, a violin ist whose virtuosity- is exceed ed only by his musical integrity. Both the program and the flay ing of this artist were marked by a lack of sensationalism and romanticism, a love of form and for its own sake, that character izes the classical in any field of art. The number of selections played by Mr. San-Malo was , re grettably small, and it was un fortunate that he did not play any one of the greatest violin compositions in its entirety ; but from the first touch of his bow, ihthat gallantly subdued obli gato accompaniment to Miss Kenyon's singing of Drink, to Me Only with Thine Eyes, it was evident that the Page auditorium sheltered a master. The . impulse to rhapsodize over San-Malo is checked mu sicality. An artist who scorns to pander with the shabby tricks of ostentatious"virtuosity, San-Malo uses, his violin and himself only as instruments for the recreation of the beauty within the music. To dwell up on the brilliant, effortless tech nique that produced this beauty out of the most difficult passag es without even seeming to overcome-they would be to place false emphasis.

H.M. Tory, for three years president of the Canadian J. tion in a Daily Tar Heel inter view. Promotion of research study of the sciences, both nat ural and applied, is the purpose, he says. The Canadian Council, which was founded in 1916 dur ing the World War? and expand ed during the business depres sion of 1921, he; believes immeasurably-assisted in increas- ling interest and study in science since its founding. Under the leadership of "President Tory scores of scholarships have been supplied, by the council for worthy Canadian students de siring to study science at the Canadian colleges and univer sities. Successful graduates are technical pitfalls: trilled double-stops, intricate. combina tions of pizzicato and bowing, harmonics, that became flute like in tone, thanks to his sup erb touch and splendid instru ment, rapid passages demand ing flawless coordination of wrist and fingers. These mat ters are eelipsed by the recol lection of the purity of his tone, soft . without stickiness, the sureness of his -JboW, eloquent without bombast,and the ac curacy of his intonation, brought sound of his fingers pouncing into relief by the pleasurable sound upon the finger-board. San Malo submerges his personality arid his art in the music he is re creating to a rare degree. Hear ing him,-one feels, with humilf ity, the presence of a modest, a quiet, a classic greatness.

Re search Council in this country, is composed 'of prominent Can adian engineers and representa tives of the leading colleges of science, making a membership of about fifteen. Dr. Tory was for twenty years president of the University of Alberta, in western Canada, be fore accepting the leadership of the council: He is graduate of McGill university. On his first trip south of Washington while at the Univer sity, President Tory expressed a feeling of pleasure from per ceiving the charm of this aged campus. He was pleased with the general scattering of build ings, which he ays is seldom done at Canadian schools be cause of the intense cold which students must experience while changing winter classes. However,-he says, some of the build ings at the University of Alber ta, which were built during his administration are set apart. Students are never college "men" in Canada, he'says, as they are known in England and in some American schools, but merely college "boys."
