Di Senate Votes For
Blid-Tenn Schedule
By an almost unanimous vote,
the Di Senate in session Tues
day night went on record as fav
oring a special schedule for mid
term examinations. The bill
passed read: Resolved: That the
Di Senate go on record as fav

term examinations as follows:
Monday, 8 :30, 3 :00 ; Tuesday,
9:30; Wednesday, 11:00;
Thursday, 12:00; Friday, 2:00.

average student to have to take,
in some cases, as many as four
exams in one day.
Ernest Hunt was declared not
guilty when impeachment
charges brought against him
came to a vote. Francis Jus
tice and Donald Shoemaker were
expelled from the senate for fail
ure to pay fees last year.

erage, and low sections. The
high or advanced sections, were
offered the content of the fresh
man English course in two quar
ters. There were two sections
of advanced English, containing
49 students."
At the end of the winter quar
ter the advanced English course
had been completed. All 49 had
passed the work successfully.
Twenty-eight of the students,

CHAPEL HILL, N. C, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1933
Paroxysmal Upheaval In Bridge -Morld
Threatens Catastrophe
PIASTER BUILDER'
TO BE RENTED
Madame Hammer's Troupe to
Return Here for Two Per
formances in Theatre.
Borgny Hammer's Ibsen play
ers will present "The Master
Builder" Monday afternoon at
3:00 o'clock in the . Playmaker
theatre as a complimentary, per
formance. This is being done because
two former members of the
Playmakers are in the Ibsen
company. Seats may be ob
tained by presenting Playmaker
season tickets at the box-office
immediately before the perform
ance. .'. "The Master Builder" will be
presented again at 8 :30 o'clock
in the Playmaker theatre for all
others who wish to see it. The
acoustics and stage are better
suited for such a performance
than those of Memorial hall. !
There has been criticism of
their performance of "Ghosts"
due to the fact that Curtis
Cooksy was forced to read his
part. There are many transla
tions of this play, and Cooksy
unfortunately studied the wrong
one when he was journeying
down to fill in when the original
actor became sick. The poor
acoustics of Memorial hall pre
vented the voices of the actors
from : c a f r y i n-g sufficiently!
Cooksy now knows his part in
"The Master Builder" thor
oughly, and the acoustics in the
theatre are excellent. ,
KOCH WILL READ
'AH, WOERNESS'
Third of Series of Readings by
Bull's Head Will Be Present
ed This Afternoon.
Professor Frederick H. Koch
will read "Ah, Wilderness," Eu
gene O'Neill's new play, in the
Bull's Head bookshop in the Y.
M. C. A. this afternoon at 4 :00
o'clock, Miss Mary Dirnberger
announced yesterday morning.
This play is enjoying its sec
ond week's run in New York
City under the auspices of the
New York Theatre Guild. A
great cast is helping in the pro
duction of the play, including
George M. Cohan. It is the" first
of its kind by O'Neill, and has,
according to the author, "in its
creation of atmosphere, senti
ment, mood) the evocation of a
dead past in a simple middle-,
class family in a small town
to me . the America which was
(and is) the real America."
Prof essor Koch's reading will
be especially appropriate in that
it was he who so largely influ
enced the movement toward the
type of folk drama displayed in
"Ah, Wilderness."
The October issue of Current
History lauds the influence of
Professor Koch on the Ameri
can drama.
Montrose J: Moses, the author
of The American JNote in
Drama," concludes his discus
sion of American drama with a
tribute to Professor Koch, who,
according to Moses, has every
reason to exault in that his pri
vate idea of folk drama as first
practiced in North Dakota and
further sustained in North Car
olina has been so thoroughly as
similated throughout the land.
Anti-Bridge League Sounds Clar
ion Call as Result of Watching
. Page and Woerner Play.
Down with Culbertson I The
Devil with Lentz I The sack for
Sims, Jacoby, and Lightner! A
momentuous, history-making ga
thering in The Tab ttfft. office
yesterday afternoon drew up
articles based on a faith so firm
and unflinching that it promises
a "Holy War" against the my
riad of bridge players of Chapel
ffill.
While the group "refused to
admit it yesterday, expert scouts
report that the immediate cause
for the founding of the society
was watching Bob Woerner and
Bob Page play four hours in
Sutton's. This journalistic pair
eventually went to the cleaners,
but not before the anti-bridge
league had passed out from
sheer exhaustion. To date the
chief work of the league has
been attempting to get Woerner
and Page to sign the articles of
faith. At present, both are hold
ing out for higher pay.
Moving spirits of the organi
zation, charter members to boot,
as well as grand and little slams,
are Foy Patrick GasMns and
Eleanor Bizzell. The former has
come in for serious question as
to eligibility owing to his partic
ipation in the production of the
Buccaneer, while the lady in
question boasts the paradoxical
nomenclature, "desk man" in theJ
mast-nead of TheTab Heei
No pussyfooting organization
is the anti-bridge league, nor
are its members . exclusively
small-fry. One Thomas Walker,
ex-Spencer hall devotee, heads
the list of anti-bridgers. Other
conscientious objectors include
Joe Sugarman, social light of cir
cles unknown; Nick Powell, ex-setter-upper
of bridge tables at
the Phi Kappa Sigma Kappa
house; and Opie Shelton, who
was just a freshman who should
have known better.
Frantic attempts to sound out
Editor Ulaiborn Uarr were in
vain.. It was rumored that he
was marching through Georgia
and probably couldn't play con
tract anyway.
Other statements from stu
dents, solicited for membership
include Ben Proctor's pithy re
joinder: "I can't sign I run a
dorm store. But I'm with you
body and soul"; and Marcus
Feinstein who replied: "Fm
sorry, I just can't afford it."
The charter of the group is as
follows :
"We, the undersigned, being
of sound mind on this the 18th
day of October in the year of
our Lord, one thousand, nine
hundred and thirty-three, do
hereby solemnly .swear, and af
firm, that we will play no bridge
under no circumstances during
the ensuing school year. ;
Codicil: Tar Heel members
are not barred because of first
clause.
FLASH: Woerner and Page
have just signed after remem
bering that cataclysmic defeat.
Thirteen Sick
Thirteen students were con
fined to the University infirm

REVIEWPUBLISHES
FOOTBAJLLEDITION
Supplement Deals Principally
With Overwhelming Defeat
Of Tar Heels by Georgia.
The weekly footbajl supple
ment to The Alumni Review,
featuring the Carolina-Georgia
football game, was distributed
yesterday from the office of J.
Maryon Saunders, secretary of
the alumni association.
The issue deals principally
with the overwhelming defeat
of the Tar Heels by the clever
Georgia team. The first two
pages of the publication take up
the story of the game in gen
eral, and the remainder of the
paper is given over to play-byplay
accounts.
Coach Chuck Collins' weekly
contribution to the supplement,
a criticism of the game from the
coach's bench, is f eatured on the
first page. "We were outclassed
in every department of the
game," concluded the coach in
his article. "We played in the
big leagues Saturday and came
out with a minor league rating."
Statistics of the game .are
given prominent places on the
first and last pages. A short sec
tion is given over to the coming
Carolina-Georgia Tech game,
and the story of the Carolina
freshman team's victory over
Louisburg is written up on the
last page of the issue. ;
