COLLINS SPEAKS BEFORE
DURHAM MONARCH CLUB
The Jitney Players who are to
appear here Wednesday, No
vember 30 at 4:00 and 8:30
o'clock in the Playmakers thea
tre under the auspices of -the
Carolina Playmakers will pre
sent two well-known dramas.
For the matinee, Tom Robert
son's romantic, mid-victorian
comedy, Caste will be given, and
for the night performance the
Jitney Players will present
George Bernard ; Shaw's ro
mantic satire, Arms and The
Mm.
The Jitney Players are the
result of the desire of two peo
ple, Alice Keating Cheney and
her husband, Bushnell Cheney,
the founders, to carry the drama
to the people, and make it live.
To do this they had to assemble
a company of professionals in
order to present to the public
their repertoire of plays in the
real New York manner. Ten
years ago the company, was be
gun and today, with Mrs.
riiATiPv its leading lady and
head of the company, the Jit
ney Players have become a
famous professional . touring
company. ,
Mrs. Cheney, who has studied
in this country and abroad, has
played in support of both John
and Lionel Barrymore, and was
at one time under the manage
ment of The Theatre Guild. She
"has the leads of Esther in Caste,
and Rama in Arms and The
Man. Playing opposite Mrs.
Cheney is Douglas Rowland who
played a season in support of
Branche Yurka, supreme inter
preter of Ibsen, and has ap
peared for the last three seasons

RED CROSS DRIVE
NOWATMTOPOINT
Annual Soliciting for Members
Of Relief Organization Finds
Goal Far Removed.
The goal for this year's Red
Cross drive has been set at 750
members, which it is hoped will
net the local chapter over $1,000.
So far, the membership ' has
passed the 350 mark, netting
approximately $400. It is hoped
this mark will have passed 750
when the curtain falls on the
1932 drive next Wednesday.
Colonel Pratt wants it clearly
understood that the local chap
ter stands ready and willing to
aid the students of the Univer
sity as well as the people of this
community. It is the object of
this chapter to make it possible
for every man, woman, and
child to make a contribution, no
matter how small it may be.
The call for clothes, wood,
food, and other articles has been
issued to those who are unable
to make monetary contributions.
For those who, heretofore, have
been unable to get in touch with
a Red Cross worker, a receiving
desk has been placed in the post
office.
Professor F. H. Koch, direc
tor of the Carolina Playmakers,
explained in an interview this
week, why the Playmakers
found it necessary to give up
plans for their annual November
tour.
"The present financial condi

tours this year as in former

OF JUNIOR EVENT
Wade and Collins Present Different
Phases of Athletics in Re
spect to Colleges.
The efforts of Carolina and
Duke student body leaders to
cement a closer feeling of
friendliness and cooperation be
tween the two universities are
in full evidence this week-end
when the grid teams of the two
institutions have their annual
game m iienan stadium this
afternoon.
The Duke-Carolina friend
ship trophy, an outgrowth of
the first official attempt - for
friendlier sentiment between
the universities, will be awarded
to the winning team as a token
of goodwill from the losers. The
presidents of the student bodies
have exchanged messages urging
that each student body observe
the best sportsmanship and
friendliness. ,
Be Cordial to Guests
In addition, students of the
University, as host to the Duke
student body, are planning to
extend every courtesy to their
visitors.
In this issue of The Daily
Tar Heel, Wendell Home, presi
dent of the Duke men's associa
tion, expresses good-will to the
University while in a similar

And most of all it will for all

Friendship Trophy
Tne trendsnip tropny is an
annual award given the victor
ious team as a token of good
will. The idea of this award
was conceived in the fall of
1930 by John Lang, University
student who was at that time
president of the North Carolina
Student Federation.
The Student Federation itself
was the outgrowth of a good-will
meeting of representatives of
the two schools in the winter
quarter of 1930. At this meet
ing suggestions for some sort of
a trophy were advanced. Lang
was supported in this move by
Bill Murray, star football play
er of Duke.
The senjor classes of 1931 at
Duke and at Carolina gave the
trophy, the two groups sharing
the expense. The trophy is of
silver, mounted on a black base
of oval shape. The goal posts
and a cross-bar, in the same pro
portions as the goal post of the
playing field, form the silver
part. Dates and names of the
winning team are engraved on
the trophy each year. Duke has
had the trophy for the past two
years when the team captains
tosse da coin for its possession.
On both occasions the Blue Devil
leader won.

Head Of Duke Student Body Speaks
This afternoon is an important event in the history of the
University of North Carolina and Duke University. For two
years our institutions have fought hard nothing-to-nothing
ties in football. . . .
Every Duke student takes much pride in the friendly
rivalry that exists between Carolina and Duke. I believe any
school would be glad to have such a spirit of rivalry in its
institution, as we have. One must want a victory over a team
to really get a kick out of winning the game. Our student
body is anxious for such a spirited rivalry to continue to be
a cherished tradition.
I have observed very closely the friendly relations between
Carolina and Duke the last few years. To better explain
what I mean, I shall give an example of one of my observa
tions. Last year when Carolina and Duke went to Atlanta for the
Southern Conference basketball tournament, one would have
thought they were brother institutions. Both teams went
down on the same train, stayed at the same hotel, and pulled
for each other in every game. Sometimes around the hotel,
a stranger could hardly have known whether Captain Alex
ander was captain of Carolina or puke; the same thing was
true of Captain Shaw of Duke. Just this sort of relationship
is what we are proud to have a share in.
You know that we are coming over to Chapel Hill hoping
to win that football game; you are hoping the same thing for
yourselves. May the best team win!
Whether we win or lose we are going to be good sports a
good loser, if need be, or a good winner.
WENDELL HORNE,
President Duke Student Body.
University faculty members
and other University employees
are faced with the prospect of
another salary cut which is ex
pected to amount to twenty-two
per cent for the year. Since all
other expenditures have been
pared to the bone, reduced salar-
ies were seen as the only way in
which the estimated $113,000
deficit of the University might
be met.
From the beginning of last
year a ten per cent salary cut
was in effect, and during the
months of April, May and June
an additional twenty per cent
reduction was deemed necessary.
This year also began with a ten
per cent cut, but the second cut
has of necessity to go into ef
fect earlier than last year.
Lower Income Responsible
The major reason for subject
ing salaries to this additional
cut has been the reduced income
which the University has real
ized from other sources than
the state appropriation and en
dowments. Enrollment has drop
ped off in number by about 200
students and there is a corres
ponding decrease in tuition and
free money. . Less revenue is
being obtained from the dormi
tories and :from Swain hall
since room rent and board have
been materially reduced. -
No definite decision has been
reached in regard to the time
that this cut will go into effect.
It has been rumored that No
vember 1 would be the date, but
President Graham is consulting
the faculty members as to the
time of application. The im
pending cut may be spread over
