evening- the debate squad had
try outs for the debates with
New York university and West
ern Reserve. The- subject which
will be used for the New" York

HcBride Fleming-Jones.
Speaking in opposition to
capitalism were George Donnen
baum, J. W. Slaughter, B. C.
Proctor, Fred C. Wardlaw, Don
Seawell, -and Charles D. Ward
law. The University debaters
will oppose capitalism in the
debate with Western Reserve.
These tryouts will be continu
ed at the meeting next Thurs

structive talks will be delivered
with a five minute limit. The
Toom will then be divided and
members of each side will be
cross examined.

ATTEMPTS MADE
TO CREATE LOCAL
FUND COMMITTEE
"tJraham, Albright, and Council
Lead in Effort to Raise
Emergency Loans.
A community committee for
the student loan funds is being
formed by President Frank
Graham, Mayne Albright, and
Jtfayor Zeb Council for the pur
pose of getting 100 per cent lo
cal participation in raising an
emergency student loan fund.
The personnel of the committee
Tvill be announced in a few days.
The educational careers of
several hundred students and
the balance of the University
budget is at stake. While the
necessary $100,000 emergency
fund cannot possibly be raised
locally, a considerable portion of
this amount certainly can be ob
tained from nearby sources.' "
A committee already at work
to secure help elsewhere feels
that a demonstration of concern
and effort here where condi
tions are best known is a neces
sary beginning to securing aid
from alumni and citizens out
side Chapel Hill.
Law Exams Start Today
The first semester examma-
tions for law school students
will begin today and last until
Saturday, January 30.
Lectures Cancelled
Wilson and Dashiell Speak at Sup
per Meeting. of Sigma Xi
Tuesday Evening.
At a supper meeting of Sigma
Xi, honorary scientific frater
nity, Tuesday evening in Gra
ham Memorial, it was announced
that Dr. Felix d'Herelle of . the
Yale university medical school
had accented an invitation to
deliver-the Sigma Xi lectures
this year, but due to the con
dition of the- University's bud
get, the University was forced
to withdraw the usual subsidy
for the series, and in face of the
salary cut, the members of the
organization felt it, would be un
wise to have the lectures this
year.
Dr. H. V. Wilson of the zool
ogy department made a few Re
marks concerning the meeting
of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science,
which took place in New' Or
leans, and Dr. J. F. Dashiell,
head of the psychology depart
ment, gave an illustrated talk on
"Modern Trends in Psychologi
cal Research."
THIRTY POSITIONS
OPEN ON STAFFS
OF CAMPUS DAILY
Tryouts Tomorrow at 5:00;
Louis Graves Will Speak to
Entire Group at 7:00.
Aspirants for reportorial and
editorial work on the Daily Tar
Heel will be given a chance to
tryout . for the paper at a spec
ial meeting tomorrow afternoon
at 5:00 o'clock in the publica
tion's office in Graham Memor
ial. There are ten vacancies on
the reportorial staff, eight posi
tions open on the editorial
board; six each on the feature
and foreign news boards.
Upperclassmen are particular
ly urged to tryout for the staff.
For three quarters' efficient work
on the Daily Tar Heel, attractive
charms will be awarded, and
recognition will be given in the
Yackety Yack. Valuable jour
nalistic experience may be gain
ed by consistent application on
the paper. Loyalty is a prere
quisite for a successful career
on the Daily Tar Heel staff,
but aside from routine technical
matters, the writer is left to his
own responsibility in following
up the duties assigned him, and
in aiding the paper to place it
self among the leading journals
of-campus opinion.
The entire editorial staff will
meet at 7:00 o'clock, at which
time Louis Graves, editor of the
Chapel Hill Weekly, will offer
some constructive criticism- to
wards improving the quality of
the paper.
REMINGTON SPEAKS AT
PARISH HOUSE SUPPER
Bishop W. P. Remington, of
the eastern Oregon diocese of
the Episcopal church, spoke to
a group of thirty University stu
dents at a supper last night in
the parish house. Reverend Al
fred S. Lawrence, rector of the
Chapel of the Cross, introduced
the speaker, recalling Bishop
Remington's first'visit here two
years ago. The bishop talked
informally on "The Teachings
of Christ as Applied to Our
Everyday Life," citing numer
ous examples of how one's ap
parent modernity parallels ; in
many ways the lessons taught
by Jesus, ana tnai one s aumt
to deftne lite is augnieuu uy
the nearness of spiritual con-
tacts.
CHAPEL HILL, N. C, SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1932
CHARLOTTE PLAY
GROUP TAKES UP
WORKS OF GREEN
Koch Makes Address on Program De
voted, to Carolina Playwright.
Professor Frederick H. Koch
addressed a meeting of the mem
bers of the Little theatre of
Charlotte last night in Charlotte
on the "Life and Works of Paul
Green." The "Paul Green Eve
ning" was devoted entirely to
the native North Carolinian's
success in the realm of the
drama.
Fixin's, one of Green's early
works written in collaboration
with his sister, Erma, was pre
sented by the workshop commit
tee of the Little theatre group.
The performance was conducted
by members who were former
Playmakers. The part of the
stubborn Harnett countv ten
ant farmer, Ed Robinson, was
acted by John Harden, who had
that role when the playmakers
presented the same p.y on tour.
Lily, wife of Ed, was played by
Penelope Alexander ; . and the
landlord, Jim Cooper, ' was taken
by Dr. Burke Fox.
Walter Spearman, director;
Anne Melick and Phoebe Hard
ing, in charge of properties;
Margaret ; Jones', prompter ; arid
Allen Heath, K stage manager,
were all once connected with
the Playmakers.
(EDITOR'S NOTE: In the same vein in which a survey of University
courses was presented before the holidays, the Daily Tar Heel continues with
this issue a comprehensive summary of campus institutions with the idea
cf causing every: citizen of the University to become better acquainted with
the policies - and systems of operation of his service organizations.)
STUDENT ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE
The Student Entertainment
Committee is supposedly, com
posed of five faculty advisors
and six student members. Its
student membership is at pres
ent made up of only five men
because the school of commerce
only appointed one person to
serve on the board rather than
its quota of two.
The committee was begun at
the instigation of Dean Addison
Hibbard, now dean of the liberal
arts school at Northwestern,
and formerly dean of the A. B.
school at the University, for the
purpose of affording the stu-
aents an opportunity to see and
; hear artists of America and the
world. Were it not for such an the University gave a tnousana
institution, the possibility of dollars a year to the committee,
such entertainment would be but because of the present pre
slim since a community the size carious financial condition of
of Chapel Hill would not be the school this policy has been
able to attract the artists which discontinued, and the student
are available under the nresent entertainment fee is the only
system. .
Membership
Faculty membership is corn-
posed of the head of the music ( mittee to select each spring the
department, Dr. Harold S. attractions which are to be pre
Dyer ; the head of dramatic sented the following year. In
work at the University, Pro-, former. years it was the privi-
fessor F. ;H. Koch; Dr. J. P.
Harland, authority on ancient
beauty and culture; and the
deans of the A. B. and com
merce schools, A. W. - Hobbs,
and D. D. Carroll, respectively.
It was thought that by includ
ing the first named men on the
committee, a better choice of
attractions could be made, since
these men are authorities
in
their field.
Students of the liberal arts
school, the school of commerce,
and of the school of education
pay a dollar fee each quarter,
which entitles them to attend
all the programs offered by the
committee. The school of com-
merce joined the two original other programs than those plan
schools this fall by a vote of the ned vvould be welcomed and
commerce students taken last
spring. .
DAVIS POSTPONES
PRESENTATION OF
'A DOLL'S HOUSE'
Playmakers Need Extra Week for
Rehearsals of Drama by Ibsen.
Due to several complications
the Carolina Playmakers have
found it necessary to postpone
the production of A Doll's House
for a week. This makes the date
fall the first week-end in Febru
ary. The Playmakers selected Hen
rik Isben's famous play for
winter production immediately
after Christmas and held try-
ai. 4. ai. i. j j- n ,
that the tentative date was fixed
for January 28, 29, and 30.
Plans were complicated how
ever by rehearsals for the
Twelfth Night Revels, and re
hearsals for A Doll's House got
under way slowly. Only this
week was Director Davis able to
locate suitable persons for the
children's parts.
At present the work is going
forward steadily, and with no
further interruptions, Davis J
lopes to be able to offer a fin
ished production on the nights
of February 4, 5, and 6.
Magazine Deadline
The deadline for the next
Carolina Magazine copy will be
Tuesday.
. Student members of the com
mittee are chosen by the deans
of the three schools participat
ing in the endeavor, two men
being appointed by each dean.
It was thought best to appoint
the men rather than have them
elected by a student poll, since
in this way, campus politics
would not enter into the affair.
However, student opinion should
be considered more than it is at
present, and the students should
concern themselves more in an
enterprise which is related to
themselves and their pocket
books. Finances

years
source of income with which the
work is carried on.
It is the .purpose of the com
lege of the students of the three
schools concerned to vote and
show their preference for cer
tain artists and programs.
However, the students took such
small advantage of the poll it
was abandoned as a . means of
selection, and the choice is at
present left entirely to the com
mittee. The group gathers at
other times throughout the year
to take care of other problems
and expenses which arise.

entertainments each quarter,
but difficulties arise in getting

Dances Planned
Two Fraternity Organizations Will
Sponsor May Frolic and
Winter Festival.
Plans for the third May
Frolic are well underway and
though no orchestra has been
chosen as yet, it has been de
cided that the dance will take
place in the Tin Can May 5 and
6. The May Frolic is an annual
affair sponsored by D. K. E.,
Beta Theta Pi, Sigma Nu, Sigma
Chi, S. A. E., Kappa Sigma, and
Zeta Psi.
The dates for the Winter Fes
tival have also been announced
by the sponsors, A. T. O., Phi
th r.Jx -o- Tr , ,
Delta Theta, Pi Kappa Alpha,
Phi Gamma Delta, and Pi Kappa
Phi. It will be given February
26 and 27 in Bynum gymnasium
as last year when the first Fes
tival was given. The organiza
tion was formerly known as the
. Spring Festival, but since the
German club regulations would
only permit two large dances in
the spring quarter, it has been
moved up to the winter quarter
and rechristened. No orchestra
has been selected as yet.
STUDENT HELP IN
LIBRARY MAY BE
. REDUCEIVBY CUT
University Working Out Plans
To' Avoid Curtailing Num
ber of Assistants.
The facts that a specific fund
exists for student assistants to!as outlined by Felix A. Grisette,
the library staff and that if this
fund is cut off by further
get reductions the library would
be forced to drop these assist
ants were revealed yesterday in
the investigation of the current
rumor that students working in
the library would loose their
positions. ,
This information was reveal-
led by a member of the library
staff who pointed out the speci
fic fund, and the necessity of
dropping students , if this fund
is withdrawn at the end of the
month. This would result in
quite a substantial reduction of
the library's service to the Uni
versity as the building would
not be kept open except for a
small part of the day.
Working on Plans
The administration of the
University is working out plans
to meet the situation in the best
manner possible, and the serv
ices of this part of the staff will
not be curtailed except under
absolute necessity.
The need for these assistants
is revealed in the fact that one
assistant hands out and re
stacks fifty-seven books an hour,
while other members of the staff
work five or six hours a day.
Charles T; Woollen, business
mafiager of the University, stat
ed that the fund for assistants
was not separate from the li
brary appropriation, and would
suffer in accordance with the
cut made by the tax commission.
TWO DANCES FEATURE
WEEK-END FESTIVITIES
The first dance of the winter
quarter took place last night,
when the. Woman's association
entertained in the lounge of Gra
ham Memorial from 10 :00 until
1:00 o'clock. Jack Baxter and
his Carolina Tar Heels furnished
music. . .
The order of the Grail will
stage a dance tonight in Bynum
gymnasium with Jack Baxter
again playing. Stag tickets are
on sale at Pritchard-Lloyd's and
1 at the Book Exchange, and only
a limited number will be sold.
NUMBER 87
LOAN FUND GROUP
WILL CONVENE TO
DISCUSSREPORTS
Business of Meeting Will In
clude Plans for Activities
During 1932.
The annual meeting of the
Alumni Loyalty Fund council
will take place January 30 at
2:30 in the president's office as
part of the program of the Gen
eral Alumni Assembly. The
chief business of the meeting,
which will be presided over by
Allen J. Barwick, chairman of
the council, will include reports
for the past year and plans for
the fund's activities during
1932.
To Attempt Loan Increase
The principal objective of the
Alumni Loyalty Fund which
will be discussed at this time
.will be the methods of increas
ing the University student loan
fund. It is also possible that
the council will undertake a
project this year in the form of
a survey of the number of out-of-state
students enrolled in the
University as compared with
the amount of North Carolina
students in other colleges and
universities all over the coun
try. This survey will include
the number of .non-state students
in other North Carolina educa
tional institutions such as Duke,
Davidson, and Wake Forest.
ine Purpose ot tnis project,
jdirector of the Alumni Loyalty
bud-!Fund is to determine whether
the balance of out-of-state stu
dents in the .University is fav
orable to the taxpayer. The
theory has been advanced by
prominent North Carolinians
that the state is over-burdened
by the financing of the students
from other states. The Alumni
