Mr. Russell will be in "his office, 210 Murphy, today at 2:30 p. m. to interview ap plicants. , " ' Phillips Russell," English pro fessor, has turned from single personalities to the scope of an entire century an his newest book, "The Glittering Century," which will be released from the press the last of October. In his previous books, "Wil liam the Conqueror," "Benja min Franklin, The First Civil ized American," and "John Paul Jones," Mr. Russell has dealt with individual biographies, but "The Glittering Century" is an attempt to present a synthetic view of the eighteenth century. I Experiment According to Mr. Russell, his book is an experiment in a new kind of writing, combining his tory with biography. By inter mingling the lives of the most conspicuous figures of the 18th cent u r y with participating movements and forces, Mr. Rus sell has shown the character of the century. The chief European countries and America are dealt with. "I haye. tried to present early American history as seen through European spectacles," said the author. . .. , The creative writing profes sor said that he had read parts of the manuscript to his classes President Frank Graham has in creative writing last spring been in Cambridge, Mass., for and had received valuable criti- the last three days, as a member cism from his students.

The new hall boasts a sus pended ceiling, with a central ventilating - fan that pulls a steady stream of air through all open windows and shoots it out through the ceiling. A complete new maple flooring has been laid and an indirect lighting system prevents un pleasant glare. New Equipment . In the basement are rest rooms for men and women, for white and colored. All china and . silverware has been replaced by entirely new equipment. Equip ment has also been installed in the kitchen. Swain hall was closed last fall when the administration felt that the steadily declining pa tronage did not warrant further monetary loss in its operation. During the winter and fall quarters, a- student movement advocated the remodeling and reopening of the hall to avoid exhorbitant prices charged by private enterprises. A need was also cited for a central meeting place for students where smok ers and other student 'affairs could be held. Attendance at the dining hall since its reopening has steadily approached or equalled capacity. The new cafeteria i3 being op erated by Haywood Duke, man ager of the Carolina Inn.
