Preliminaries
Will Be Held
At Friday Dance
By LOUISE H. JORDAN
For the first time in the' history of
the oldest university in the country,
the campus German club will sponsor
a "waltzing contest during Fall Ger
mans next week-end.
The occasion is in connection with
the National Great Waltz competi
tion now being held by Metro-Gold
wyn-Mayer upon the release of the
picture "The Great Waltz," and the
idea is to bring back the waltz in no
uncertain terms at the expense of
such muscular maneuvering as the
"Little Apple"' and "jitterbugging."
Preliminary tryouts will be held at
the Friday night dance. Consequent
ly, the dance will be open to all at
three dollars per, bid. Saturday night
at the final contest only those under
classmen who may win the prelimi
naries will be admitted.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer will present
the winners of this local contest an
engraved cup and they are eligible
to "enter the state eliminations in Ra
leigh. Winners there will receive an
other cup and a trip to Washington
to compete 1 in the district finals as
the guests of the Shoreham hotel
November 7. This particular zone
comprises North : Carolina, South
-Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Dela
ware and the DistrifJujof Columbia.
As a final competition, the winning
team from this zone will be taken to
New York city on December ,14 to
enter the grand finals to be held in
Madison Square Garden, in competi
tion with couples from the twelve
zones in the country. The winning
couple in New York will receive i
three-month contract with Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer with the guarantee of
appearing in at least one picture.
The requirements are. simple:
Contestants must be 16 years of
age. Professional dancers are barred
The local competition is open to al
students and residents of Chapel Hil
and vicinity, and to dancers from any
town in the state which does not run
a local contest.
Judges for the contest will be an
nounced soon.
The new Pick theater will hold its
opening with, the showing of the
Metro film, "The Great Waltz" on
November 7 and 8.

Union Would Place
New Amusement In
Upstairs Ballroom
Graham Memorial may sponsor a

If the club plans are approved by
the board, the entertainment will be
located in the upstairs ballroom of the
student union building. Renovations
will include indirect lighting tables
and chairs and a suitable dance floor.
Committee To Investigate
Jim Joyner, president of the student
body, was chosen to appoint a commit

ed, the amount of expenditures neces
sary and to determine how often the
night club should be operated. The
committee is expected to make a re
port on its findings at the board meet
ing next week.
The night club idea has been tried
successfully by several mid-western
colleges. Magill studied reports of the
college clubs and sent a digest of the
research to the members of the board
of directors.

Bowman Withdraws
From Treasurer
Run-off To Aid Shore
By JIM3IY DUMBELL
Tabulation of votes in yesterday's
freshman elections resulted in a run
off between Bill Shore and Bill Ward
or the presidency, and the election
of Dudley Cocke as vice president,
John Diffendale as secretary and Ned
Edwards as treasurer.
Jim Joyner, president of the stu
dent body, announced that the Stu
dent council decided at its meeting
last night that the run-off between
Shore and Ward would be held Mon
day, and that the polls would be open
from 10 to 3 o'clock at the YMCA.
Bowman Withdraws
The votes were cast as follows: for
president Bill Ward, 197; Shored
151; Dunn, 84. For the office of vfca
president, Dudley Cocke received 224
and Bill Schwartz 196. 242 votes were
cast for John Diffendale while
Fletcher Mann received 181. In the
race for treasurer, Ned Edwards re
ceived 213; Ralph Bowman 114, and
Mackerman 104. This "close margin
gave Bowman an opportunity to de
mand a run-off for the office but he
declined with this statement: "I am
withdrawing from the run-off in
order to devote all of -my time and
energy to aiding Bill Shore in his
campaign for president.,,
It was rumored that "Muck" Dunn,
who was defeated for president, was
going to throw hisf votes for Shore,
but as Dunn could not be reached late
last-night this -has not been verified.
Both candidates for presidency were
hard at work last night forming new
campaign ideas, holding party meet
ings and "politicking" for votes.

All sophomores and fraternity
members please start having pic

"Duke" Has Low
Rating On Campus
There are only eight more days
until the Duke-Carolina game, and
already the appellation "DUKE"
rates one pretty low.
Dr. Harland, in his Greek sculp
ture class the other day, was ex
plaining the difference between
the. Greek goddess Aphrodite and
the Roman one Venus.
"If anyone calls Aphrodite Ve
nus, then 111 call them eh 'Duke'
students."
The protraction and quality of tone
like that of a maestro was dominant
in all the selections.
When the first measure of the open
selection, Adagio by Bach, was played,
the audience were aware of the fact
that they were to hear a program by
a genius and his cello. Other pieces
played on the program were Siciliano
and Arioso by Bach; Sonata in A
Major by Boccherini; Seven Varia
tions on a theme from "The Magic
Flute" by Beethoven; Three Fantasy
Pieces by Schumann; and Symphonis
Variations composed by Boellmann.
For an encore, Klenz played the sooth
ing melody, Little German Dance by
Dittersdorf.
William Klenz is a graduate of the
Curtis institute of music in Phila
delphia and has studied under Ernst
Bloch, Felix Salmond and Fritz Rein
er. He is a special instructor in the
Music department at the present time.
