COUNCILMAN FOR
ENGINEERS STILL
UNDER DISCUSSION
Weeks Gives Reasons That No Defi
nite Action Has Been Taken by
Student Representatives.
Haywood Weeks, president of
the student council, last night
gave the reasons that no ar
rangements have been worked
out to seat a representative of
the engineering school on the
council.
This question has been under
consideration of the council
since the new administration
went into office, and Weeks has
conferred with Dean H. G.
Baity of the engineering school,
Dean of Students F. F. Brad-
shaw, and Dean J. C. Beard of
the oharmacy school on the
question several times.
The continued movement to
put the honor system on a dif
ferent basis last spring, and a
new program submitted by the
council this year, both of which
would have solved the need for
an engineering school council
man, were given by Weeks as
the reasons that no definite ac
tion has been taken.
The new program, which
would have to make a change in
pharmacy school representation
now that that school is operated
on a four-year basis, is slated
for the next meeting of the stu
dent activities committee to
take Dlace immediately after
campus elections.

With the closing of the tenth
annual festival of the Carolina
Dramatic Association yester
day, another chapter was com
pleted in the North Carolina
section of a national volume of
customs, manners, and colorful
vernacular known as American
folk drama.
To Professor Frederick H.
Koch there was something
something fine in "them thar
hills" of North Carolina and on
"them thar sandy stretches" of
the coast, not to mention the
towns and cities, the native
poetry and drama of which, he
thought, should be preserved for
posterity. So he labored with
the Playmakers to bring this
about. -
State Sought Aid in Dramatics
Out of the interest in a folk
theatre, awakened by the activi
ties of these itinerant Playmak
ers who swaggered in piratical
hip-boots and who, as tenant
farm women, sniffed snuff and
spat tobacco juice, there arose a
state-wide demand for guidance
in dramatic expression. To meet
this need the Bureau of Com
munity Drama was organized
by the director of the Playmak
ers, Professor Koch, in 1918. A
i t i i .
piay-oooK service was inaugu
rated, practical instruction in
play production and in construc
tion of stage scenery was sent
