Beyond City Limit
Sunday afternoon three University professors were intro
duced over Raleigh's radio station. For half an hour they
discussed for the benefit of the people of the state the issue :
Can Democracy survive?
The program represented another in a series of discus
sions of social, economic, and political questions to be pre
sented each Sunday afternoon alternately by University stu
dents and' faculty members.
The programs are sponsored by the International Rela
tions club on the campus. It is their initiative that is re
sponsible for a large step in breaking down-the academic
barrier between the University thinking ground and the field
of action beyond.
Some of the listeners might have disagreed with Philoso
pher KatsofFs argument: that the educational process of
democracy must develop rational minds that vill see issues
from all angles, that the masses with "rational minds" must
learn to act rationally for the good of the whole suppressing
their, selfish motives. This Utopia, according to Mr. Katsoff
is possible.
Certainly Mr. David, Clark, if he was listening, leaned for
ward in his chair when he heard Mr. Vance's point: that
absolute freedom of speech and ideas is an essential of de
mocracy. Whatever the individual reaction to the program, it repre
sented a casting off of the academic robes; it manifested a
belief among Professors Katsoff, Vance, and Thomas that a
university can be a maternity ward for vital ideas fit for
dispersion into the field of action.
o On With The Dance
"Bring Back the Waltz" is the slogan of a national cam
paign which will bring to Carolina this coming Friday its
first waltz contest. University prom-trotters will for the first
time find that a premium is paid for the slower type of danc
ing. And, if the idea does take root here, it won't be such a bad
state of things, when the "little applers" are not spreading
quite so much mayhem about the floor in the form of crushed
toes, barked shins, and scraped ankles. W. K.
o Day Of Days
The Duke game rapidly approaches game extraordinary,
day of unrestrained student spirit. We remember a chill, fall
evening almost a year ago a burning bonfire, shouts, milling
crowds, an all-too-painted Duke campus. We remember a
game, a mob fighting long after two blue and white teams
have finished their tilt and many a "shiner" for days after
ward. Year after year, the administrations of the two universi
ties work in a hundred ways to build up good feeling. Library
exchanges are organized; an improved highway is planned;
speakers are exchanged. But every year these efforts are
thwarted by the misdirected energies and emotions of the
two student bodies.
Carolina can do with a fuller exhibition of school spirit.
But she can in no way profit from unsportsmanlike antics of
the type displayed in past years. School spirit properly di
rected will do much to give the University a good name and
boost its teams. Poor sportsmanship and misguided enthus
iasm will go far toward giving Carolina a "black eye" and
can in no way help win ball games. T. S.
Drama Festival
Planned By Coed
(Continued from first page)
sional producers in New York liked
the idea very much and the various
little theatre and college groups I
contacted all promised to cooperate.
New Deal Steps In
"But in March, 1933, Mr. Roosevelt
closed the banks. And they all told me
they'd like to come to Vienna, but
there was no money. If it had been
I, the money wouldn't have mattered,
but that's the way they felt about it.
So, because of this and because the
international situation was so un
settled, we decided to call the Olym
piad off.
"The Amherst Masquers, however,
wired us that they were determined
to come to Vienna, even if they had
to pay all their own expenses. And
they came, too second class.
"I wrote several advance articles
about them, and- they had a tremen
dous success. After the performance,
we had a big reception for them. Am
bassadors and diplomats attended.
Everyone of any importance in the
theatre was there."
Writer Of Note
Mrs. Riez has written several
books of poetry, essays, plays, and
translations into German of English
classics. One of he? plays was used
as the libretto of an opera which won
the $3,000 first prize at the Philadel
phia Sesquicentennial Exhibition. She
has lectured all over the United
States, and it was while she was
filling an engagement at Duke that
she became acquainted with Chapel
Hill and the Playmakers.
Having established her residence in
this country two. years ago (she has
a married daughter in Minnesota),
Mrs. Riez is now taking several
dramatic and literary courses at the
University. She is very strong for col
lege theatres, since in Europe there
is no acting instruction, except in
professional schools. It is her opinion
that the Playmakers could become the
nucleus of a nation-wide dramatic
festival, with the best talent of
every state represented.
As for the present condition of the
Austrian theatre, Mrs. Riez says it
is practically dead. "Only plays rep
resenting ideas of the present gov
ernment can be presented in Vienna
now. So very few people go. The
Austrians are patriotic, but it doesn't
extend to the theatre."
PIONEER SHADOW STAR
Tar Heel Ad
Contest Closes
(Continued front, first page)
to lure more suckers into the contest.
This week, in addition to giving a
free pass to the theater to the first
two students answering the questions
concerning the Daily Tar Heel ads,
the winners will be supplied with two
of Carolina's bee-yu-tee-f ul coeds to
accompany them to the movies. The
girls gave their consent to the blind
date but wanted to know if they had
to go to the show.
Elementary Deduction
So ,Der Slave-Driver thinks the
ranks of contestants should be swelled
this week.
The contest questions will be pub
lished later on in the week in the
paper and all questions will be able
to be answered by ads appearing in
this week's Daily Tab Heel.
Any relation or similarity of this
contest to any other fair, openly com
petitive game of chance should be
disregarded. For further details read
your local ads.
Ward Defeated

(Continued from first page)
no advance notice of the . change in
hours had been received. Joyner as
serted that, if it was so, he did not
realize the group requesting the ex
tension of time was only made up of
Shore supporters. ' f
It was rumored last night that the
Bill Ward party would contest the
election. However, no such move had
been placed before the student coun
cil last night, Joyner said.
Unless the election is recalled, finis
yesterday came to probably the - most'
hotly contested fall elections in the
history of the University.

;Some time ago, during the most re
cent barbarisms in Europe, there was
a manifest indignation upon this
campus. There was an expression of
emotional partisanship, and. a pro
nounced sympathy with the invaded
powers. Classroom periods were
sometimes dedicated to. a discussion
of the problems, and our own pub
lication gave considerable comment to
the unfortunate situation.
Such reactions were natural things.
For a university is supposed to be
an orbit of culture, tolerance, and
stimulation to the "thirst for knowl
edge." The tragedies and dramas of
a world are supposed to be reflected
in our books. And they are supposed
to be reflected in our thoughts.
How Other Universities Felt
There are several other universi
ties in this country who claim these
attributes. Princeton and Chicago are
among them. Like us, they observed
the European scene. And likeus, they
were indignant at the intolerance
manifested there. But unlike us, they
have done something about their,
sentiments. Albert Einstein, whose
revolutionary scientific principles
have been discarded in Germany, was
offered a sanctuary at Princeton. And
Edouard Benes, weary from the de
feat of a life-work, has accepted an
invitation from Chicago.
Because of the prominence and
"news-value" of such exiles, their
immigration to the relative freedom
of America has - been sensationally
exploited by the newspapers. The
simple fact is that two, brilliant men,
suddenly separated from the tradi
tions and ideals of their native
lands, have been respectfully invited
into American universities. They
have not come as freaks. And they
have not come as the recipients of
gratuitous charity. They have come
as desirable educators with lessons to
teach. And they have augmented the
eminence of their respective univer
sities. But There Are Others
But there are hundreds of other
educators whose tragedy is as poig
nant as that of either Einstein or
Benes. Some of them are still in Aus
tria, Germany, Czechoslovakia and
Italy. Deprived of their offices, their
teachings undermined, they are
watching the cultures of tender gen
erations crumble. Others have man-

aged an entrance into America. De
pendent upon the charity of sympa
thetic friends or relations, they are
forced into humiliations undue to
their status. Doctors of Philosophy,
writers of books, and respected edu
cators. Like grotesque and meaning
less failures they have become bur
dens and charity cases.
Somehow this abundance of talent
reminds one of a tremendous bargain
sale. A bargain sale of culture. And
the instincts of husbandry ought to
make us consider these men.
Although we at Chapel Hill have
neither the money nor the power of
such centers as Princeton or Chicago,
we might possibly have openings for
soma of the less famed exiles. We
might avail ourselves of the teach
ings of men whose schools have been
converted into military training
grounds, and whose ideals have been
twisted into the all-consuming mass
of totalatarianship. 1
We Could Help
And those of us who have protest
ed the inhumanities of Europe might
meet actuality face to f ace and profit
by the deal. More than millions of
words or scores of "mass protest
meetings," such humane actions would
express the American reaction. And
it would also express, in the most
beautifully articulate of gestures, the
true conception of a liberal, tolerant
university.

with respect to resistance to varie
ties of plants at one time may become
quite different in the future. As con
cerns plant diseases, nature is in a

pathologists and plant breeders who
are attempting to control diseases
must take this into consideration.
They must work continuously to
checkmate the destructive effects of
