Praised In Mexico And United States The release in January by the Uni versity of North Carolina press of Josephina Niggli's "Mexican Folk Plays,' edited by Frederick H. Koch, has aroused considerable interest in both Mexico and the United States. The volume includes five one-act plays first produced at the Playmak ers theater at the University. The plays are: "Tooth or Shave," a Mexi can folk comedy; "Soldadera," a play of the Mexican revolution; "The Red Velvet Coat," a tragedy of laughter and a comedy of tears; "Asteca," a tragedy of pre-conquet Mexico; and "Sunday Costs Five Pesos," a com edy of Mexican village life. The comedies depict hilarious situations of small-town Mexican folk with many of the characters drawn from life. The book is illustrated with half tones made from photographs of the Playmakers' original productions at Chapel Hill. The appendix contains notes on Mexican costumes and Span ish pronunciation. There is an intro duction to the book by Frederick H. Koch, director of the Carolina Play makers and a foreward by Rudolfo Usigli, head of the Theater of the University of Mexico. All the plays were written in Pro fessor Koch's playwriting course at the University and produced for the first time here. Two of them, "Sun day Costs -Five Pesos" and "Solda dera" were taken on the Playmaker tour. Girls' Glee Club Sings Saturday The University Women's ,Glee club under the direction of Professor John E. Toms will present a program of Christmas music Saturday night at 8:30 in Hill Music hall.

The Women's Glee club, composed of some 35 members, will also sing Sunday night at Dr. Frederick A. Koch's reading of Charles Dickens' "Lights Go Out And Interrupt Studies Of m m m m m mm m a i zm mm wi Much to the dismay and regret of the majority of the students, the oc- -cupants of many of the classroom " buildings, and a few townspeople, the campus was plunged into darkness ; last night for a period of approx imately one hour. Beginning at approximately 7:45, all buildings of the upper and lower quadrangles were put in semi-dark ness when all lights dimmed for about fifteen minutes and then went out.

It was quite a variation from the baby show which had preceded the fencers awhile ago, and it made the folks at Raleigh sit up and take notice. When the team took the stage, the auditorium was fairly full but partially indiffer ent. Throughout the match and until its conclusion, the auditorium was not only full but the wings were packed to capacity. The bouts were run off quickly and with plenty of showmanship. The audience, police and all, took it in whole-heartedly. HOT STUFF! The audience was made up of live- wire State and other college students. Yodeling, heigh-ho silver, hit 'em and other pep-cracks continually were heard throughout the meet. So to the sound of clashing steel and the howl ing of Raleigh's broncos, the fencers not only put their performance across, but the whole show in the bargain.' Sidelights of the evening: After the performance, epeeman John Fineh was paged by two gals , backstage. Was-Ms face red! . . . The entire team thoroughly enjoyed giving the benefit performance and had a swell time, even though there was m time for dancing and dates". . .. Before leaving Raleigh, all went in for a coket and a smoke, topping off" the evening by breaking training Foods Course To Be Given Next Quarter The department of biological chem istry in the school of medicine offers in the winter quarter an elementary lecture course dealing with the prac tical principles of food selection and food values. While not iniispensible, elementary chemistry is a desirable prerequisite. Students taking the course will study the protein, fat, carbohydrate, mineral, and vitamin contents of various classes of food products. The course gives three .quarter hours credit, and meets Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 12 o'clock in the lecture room in Caldwell hall. It will be taught by Professor J. C Andrews. The course is recommended to all pre-science, education, and sociology students who may be interested in the nutritional and economic side of food, and is especially recommended to those who may be planning to teach in the public schools. Board To Question Students On Change Bog Attends Classes Getting Education Book Ex Gives Finance Report (Continued from firtt page) its own receipts for the purchase of merchandise for resale and direct operating expenses is accomplished by warrant on the state treasurer. Its excess cash receipts are trans ferred to the University and expend ed for general University purposes in the same manner that the receipts from student fees are expended.' The Administration also pointed out that the Book Ex has many dif ficulties with which to contend. No profit is made on textbooks because of the ten per cent rebate and the dead stock carried on its shelves. The enterprise is limited to certain kinds of merchandise by legislative agree ment. It makes no profit on sales to the University. And , "most impor tant," it can not take a chance but must act on assured knowledge be cause it cannot run into even a tempo rary deficit. COMPETITION In addition to these handicaps, the Book Ex,- according to the state ment, "has to compete with merchants who are not so restricted and who have no responsibility for the com plete supplying of all needs of the student body." The text concluded with the cul minative statement, "The Book Ex change is a service agency and it is intended that it shall always be so operated. The profit motive exists in the management of the Book Ex change, yet it is not the predominat ing factor. Good management is dem onstrated in service rendered to its customers and in its ability to ef ficiently manage within the profit and general restrictions set up by the general administration. Eliminate the profit motive and the biggest incen tive for good management is also eliminated."

About Howell's 12 o'clock class to end, Rusty gets up, goes over to the door, stretches himself and yawns loudly, five minutes before time for Dr. That means no more class that day, for Rusty insists loudly that everyone leave immediately. Rusty's mother, a full blooded wire- haired terrier, was owned by Wilbur Daniels Steele when he lived in Chapel Hill. When he left he gave the little puppies to Paul Green, Dr. H. D. Meyer of the sociology department, and Dr. Russell R. Potter, now a member of the faculty at Columbia university. When Dr. Potter left in the Spring of 1930, he gave his dog to Dr. S. W. Fenley, who named it "Rusty" for Dr. Potter.. Then Dr. Fenley two years later moved to Texas, and gave Rusty ta his next door neighbor, Dr. Howell who was already good friends with the dog. TRICKS When Rusty is commanded by Dr. Howell to "speak easy," he will go up close to the professor's ear and whis per very low. When told to. prayt he lies down on his back and lifts his two front paws prayerlike in front of him. Should Dr. Howell mention casually to another person of going xor a walk, Rusty immediately gets up and goes to the door to wait for walks are his favorite sport. Any word about "bones out there," and Rusty is already going toward the kitchen. His understanding vocabulary con tains about 20 words. ETIQUETTE Rusty is exceptionally well-man nered. During meals he hes outside the dining room door until dinner is finished. He", is very fond of recep tions and parties, for he especially likes candy and cakes- But he never oversteps that doorsill leading into the dining room. Rusty is certain that soon some kind soul will take notice of him and , bring him something tasty to eat. But Rusty, is a snooty dog where others of his kind are concerned. He will have nothing to do with colored dogs. Perhaps it is because he is so proud of his own snowy white hair. Dr. Howell thinks that Rusty long life is due to the fact that he stands on the curb until the last car in sight has passed before he ven tures across. When he was a puppy a car ran over his leg, and since then he is very careful. Rusty has not received his officia degree yet; but he has attended great number of examinations for M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. When asked if he thought he would get one eventually, he nodded. his head and barked. Misses Austin, Parsons Go To Fencing Meet (Continued from first page) ranks third in the ladder tournament. Both coeds, who are members of the Woman's Athletic council, have had several years of fencing experience. Miss Austin won the intramural fenc ing contests last year and received a etter in the sport. Mis Parsons reached the semi-finals. Allan Bloom, captain of the varsity fencing team and coed coach, seemed uncertain last night about Carolina's chances of victory. "Since it1 is so early in the season' he said, "neither Miss Austin nor Miss Parsons is in top form. Both will be matched against the best fencers from several colleges. We are not looking forward o a victory, but expect both girls to get some valuable experience. We are very pleased that the coeds of the University were invited to enter this tournament. This is the only intercollegiate encing tourney in which Carolina coeds will participate this year. How ever, the women's fencing team will meet Hofstra college on March 17 in a regularly scheduled spring match.

A shoe horn, for getting out of tight places, is there, too. Beside it dangles a corn cob pipe, and far ther up you will see a box of as pirin. Old light bulbs complete this collegiate tree, adding a tragic touch to Old "West's Christmas. All these unique decorations seem to represent whai will be left after exams empty cartons of cigarettes smoked over psychology; the cores of apples that were gulped along with English; an empty pipe chewed on with chemistry in hand; seven-ups downed with mathematics; and light bulbs burned out over the opened book. The crowning achievement of the display is a stocking, out of which pokes a quiz book with a red "F" on it.
