Bringing Home Bacon
OOMEWHERE in PWA headquarters at Wash-
ington is filed an application. There are thous
ands of other applications nearby. But we are par
ticularly interested in an application that asks for
a federal grant of about $500,000 with which to
construct a new gym-swimming pool at the Uni
. versity.
Many months ago the University made this ap
plication. Controller Woollen followed it up by a
trip to Washington. .But Chapel Hill had only
three registered unemployed at the time. Of
course, there were thousands of people out of jobs
in the state but no money could go to localities
where they were scarce.
The University's request was denied.
No disappointment should be too great to make
the University give up in its efforts to give stu
dents an adequate gymnasium and a decent place
to swim. It should be the unforgettable goal of
every student a goal that, once attained, would
be a source of pleasure and health. S. W. R.
A In The Haystack
THURSDAY night in unpublicized session 30
odd representatives of every possible campus
interest soberly listened, through the thin smoke
of their after-dinner cigarettes, to the : most
thoughtf ully ' piercing indictment ever made of
this student body by one of its students. Quietly
Fred Weaver gave the story of a beautifully free
campus government in which practically no stu
dents participated, in which no students were in
terestedof a small group of surprisingly capa
ble but nominal leaders, picked by less than one
half of one per cent of the voting student body,
and inefficient because they are not known, much
less respected, by their unconcerned constituents;
of a hulking campus carcass, absolutely devoid
of any unifying spirit . whatsoever .
We ourselves, are that story, and it was with
the hope of rectifying the tragedy that Student
Union Director Pete Ivey summoned last night's
group and presented the idea of an actual, tangi
ble Student Union which would coordinate and
integrate existing campus interests, and simul
; taneously give force and unifying spirit to our
undergraduate community. The many magnifi
cently idealistic and also fearfully treacherous
possibilities of the suggestion were aired and
fanned by the fellows Pete had there. For long
they worked and struggled earnestly over the
''shapeless" idea before adjourning for the mo
ment, having authorized a committee 'investiga
tion of the proposals made.
Nothing was done; but no one present left the,
discussion unconcerned ; no one left unenthusiastic
These fellows took the challenge Fred gave 'em
heads up; they want us to snap out of it. They
might find the stick-pin, yet ... J. M. S.

To the' Editor, ; : ; J .
The Daily Tar Heel:
With considerable difficulty,
the Carolina Political union has
'secured well known speakers .
from all political groups to speak
at Chapel Hill this fall. It is our
purpose to stimulate political
thought here, and we urge all
who possibly can to attend our
series of talks.
We cannot afford to bring
prominent men here unless we
can be sure of a large crowd.
Therefore, we ask for the co
operation of the whole commu-,
nity. Without co-operation we
cannot continue our work.
On Monday evening, we are
presenting Bishop Paul Jones,
who is coming from Ohio for the
purpose of talking on behalf of
Norman Thomas's election. We
welcome all who are interested
in good government and politi
cal thought.
Frank McGlinn.
STAY AWAY NOT -To
the Editor, " '
The Daily Tar Heel :
It is to be hoped that as many
students as possible hear Bishop
Jones next Monday night. I un
derstand that he represents the
Socialistic party in this election.
v That party represents a very
small -group of American citi
zens. However, it is the essence
of liberalism and democracy to
listen to all sides. The Carolina
Political union is performing a
useful function for the town and
the University in bringing these
people here. I understand that
all parties have been invited to
send representatives. The cam
pus will honor itself by giving
all speakers a large and interest
ed audience. Some have ex
pressed the fear that minority
speakers will be embarrassed by
small audiences. I do not believe
this will be the case and am glad
to respond in this note to the
request for assistance in publi
cizing this series and commend
ing it to the student body.

ASKING FOR TROUBLE
"Look at all three before you
buy." The "pee-puT didn't have
a chance to see all three candi
dates Thursday night but it was
hard to escape hearing them.
From 8 o'clock until 11 the rant
ing microphones belched hot air.
The brilliantly forceful voice
of Franklin Roosevelt, followed
by Al Smith's jerking rasp, gave
way to the professorial phrases
of innocent Norman Thomas.
. . . to balance the budget" . . .
I have also a brown derby . . ."
". . . production, for use and not
for profit." Y
The confusion of issues pre-,
sented, the obvious use of per
sonalities, do not give the be
fuddled voters a fair chance to
make a decision Yet our democ
racy must choose before Novem
ber 11 the man on whom we can
blame all our trouble during the
next four years.
It is fitting perhaps that . for
a few moments we bow our
heads in sympathy not with
the loser but with the man who
becomes president. He will need
all the consolation he can get.

Duke Ellington
Born in Washington, D. C.
Christened Edward Kennedy El
lington. Nickname "Duke" ac
quired in high school. Talented
as an artist. Artistic talents won
for him a scholarship at Pratt
Institute but financial necessity
compelled him to turn it down.
Piano lessons were obtained for
him as a youngster but forgot "
all his musical teachings when
he discovered he could play bet
ter by ear than by note.
First job soda clerking at a
Washington rendezvous. Got his
chance to shine at the ivories
when the regular i piano player
bent his elbow tbox many times.
His first comDosition, "Soda
Fountain Rag," brought him
recognition and led to his secur
ing a job in a 60 piece orchestra
playing Sunday jazz concerts. .
Drifted around directing and
playing in various small combi
nations. -
New York
Came -to New -York in 1925
with five men olhis own choos
ing. Opened at the Kentucky
club. Irving Mills, ringsiding at
the hot spot, recognized his abil
ity and talent and signed him to
an exclusive Mills Artists con
tract. Under Mills' guidance
Duke opened at Harlem's famous
Cotton Club on December 4,
1927. His immediate success is
now past history. Recordings,
radio, musical comedies, vaude
ville, pictures, ballroom appear
ances, and then a highly success
ful European tour added to his
acclaim, until today he is an in
ternational musical figure. Made
featured screen appearances in
Amos 'n' Andy's "Check and
Double Check," "Murder at the
Vanities," and Mae Wesf s
"Belle of the Nineties' in addi
tion to his short subjects, "Black
and Tan Fantasy," and "Sym
phony in Black," the latest.
Naturally very reticent and
modest. Never speaks about hjs
innumerable compositions. Dis
likes newspaper and magazine
articles which misquote him.
When not writing music can be
found sketching characters and
scenes, which he adds to his al
ready large art collection. His
most famous compositions in
clude "Mood Indigo," "Sophisti
cated Lady," "Black and Tan
Fantasy," "Creole Rhapsody,"
"Solitude," and the very latest,
"In a Sentimental Mood."
