TALK GLORIFIES BUSINESS
Emphasizing the need for
trained and highly specialized
men in the business world of to
day, David Ovens, department
store executive of Charlotte, out
lined the main requirements for
a good business executive under
present conditions in an address
in Bingham hall last night.
The main objective of Mr.
Ovens' talk was "to glorify busi
ness" and to show that business
is not the looked-down-upon oc
cupation it used to be. As a
man' who has been to large and
small business meetings in most
of the large cities of this coun
try, Mr. Ovens spoke with au
thorfty on the general type of
keen, . intelligent man. who holds
ther executive position in large
business concerns. He stressed
the fact 'that modern business
called .lor accurate trade man
agement, v
Training
Mr. Ovens explained that the
man-at college who is planning
to make a success of Ms busi
ness career must be prepared to
spend time and energy on the
study of his future work. The
general idea that business does
not require as thorough a train
ing as law and medicine is a bad
mistake. ;.. :;.,,..-7
Mr. Ovens advice to men who
.are hoping to obtain jobs in the
business world, was to be proud
of their chosen future occupa
tion. -

The Federal Theater touring
company will present the Broad

night at 8:30 in Memorial hall:
" Tost Road is not a great
play if you stand it up beside
Ibsen or O'Neill, but the comedy
mystery by Greensboro's Wilbur
Steele and Norma Mitchell
moves swiftly, builds up sus
pense to a tense climax and has
a hilarious denouement," says
the Raleigh paper in reviewing
the recent performance there.
Stage Veteran
"Miss Fassett, a stage veteran
whose character acting ha3 won
acclaim had reason to remember
past triumphs. Playing the part
of. a realistic and aggressive
spinster, she brought to her part,
which might easily have been
overacted, the wisdom of long
years in the theater. She took
five curtain calls."
