Eddie Doesn't Play Here Any More Elmer Says Isham Jones Will Appear Here Minus Vocalist Stone. We want to apologize to El mer. Who is Elmer? We don't know. Well, what has Elmer got to do with this story? Elmer is the guy that wrote us a note yesterday in regard to the Isham Jones story in Sun day's paper. Elmer says, if he may contra dict our esteemed paper, that the lovers of unusual dance mu sic may be interested in know ing that Eddie Stone will not be with Isham Jones when he ap pears here Friday and Satur day to play for the fall German club dances. Eddie only left the band about two' months ago and the Daily Tar Heel would not know about it at this time. According to El mer a new addition to the outfit is trying very hard to take his place and is doing a. pretty fair job, althought it is a difficult task to replace such a vocalist as Stone. However, says Elmer, we still have "Ish" and the smoothest dance music there is. Thanks for the note, Elmer, and the correction. We might explain that the source from which we obtained our informa tion was a publicity story sent us by the Columbia Broadcast ing System. Apparently, they forgot that Eddie is no longer with the orchestra. However, we agree with our unknown friend that the cam pus will have the opportunity to hear some of, the smoothest dance music there is; regardless of the fact that Stone will be missing. Write us again sometime, El mer. DIRECTORY DISTRIBUTION Persons living outside of Chapel Hill who are due to re ceive a copy of the student di rectory should call for it at the Y. M. C.
