Bagby Gives Lecture
In New York City
Dr. -English Bagby gave'' a lecture
on "The Technique of Public Speak
ing," last Wednesday night before a
large audience of literati at the Hotel
Voodstock in New. York. He has
spoken on this subject over 100 times
during his 20 years teaching career at
Yale, VMI and Chapel Hill. The man
aging director of the hotel was one of
his former pupils at Yale.
Dr. Bagby is now honeymooning in
New York with his bride, the former

Robber Of Prats
Believed To Be
On The "Outside" .
Since school opened this fall a num
ber of articles ranging from collar
buttons to radios and suras of money
have been reported missing from dor
mitories, houses in town, and frater
nity houses. .
W. T. Sloan, chief of police in
Chapel Hill, expressed the opinion
that the dormitory robberies were
committed by some one on the inside,
becaused it seemed that in nearly
every case the rooms were entered
when the- doors were left unlocked
for a very few minutes. He said that
he thought the fraternity houses had
been entered by someone on the out
side. In one incidence a man was
seen entering a house, but he was not
reported in time and therefore could
not be apprehended.
Among the articles stolen from dor
mitories were four watches, two
cameras, a radio, and a typewriter.
Many other small items have been
taken as well as different amounts
of money.
REPORTED
A police report was received last
weekend by the Chapel Hill police de
partment that a man who was -well
dressed and wore a fraternity pin was
believed to be headed in this direc
tion. This man visits' universities,
particularly on football weekends, and
enters fraternities and dormitories
when everyone has left them. How
ever, Chief Sloan reports that this
man has not been seen in this vicinity.
Jim Davis, president of the student
body, made the statement that the
Student Council is aware of the whole
sale stealing on the campus, which
appears to be the worst in recent
years, and would like to ask the co
operation of all students and student
organizations in stopping it.
The council suggests that the dor
mitory residents be more careful about
keeping their rooms locked at all
times and that the fraternities be
more careful concerning strange and
suspicious persons.
Davis said: "The condition is such
as to necessitate the cooperation of
the studentfbody as a whole in order
to eliminate such a state."

SHELLS WILL NOT

INTO HORSESHOE
Present Proposal
Calls For Big
Double-Decker
Athletic Director Bob Fetzer admit
ted yesterday that the University ath
letic council was considering a pro
posal to enlarge the permanent seat
ing capacity of Kenan stadium from
24,000 to anywhere from 35,000 to
40,000. i
The move has been under discus
sion by the council for the past year
and will be brought up for further
consideration when the group holds its
monthly meeting Monday night.
'We've been thinking about putting
more seats in for a long while now and
finally submitteed the proposal to
Atwood and Weeks, the architects
from Durham who designed the sta
dium and most of the newer buildings
on the campus," Fetzer said. "Every
thing is in the formative stage and
nothing is positive.
APPROVAL
J ' Any enlargement in Kenan : would
have to be approved first by the ad
ministration and then by the board of
trustees. The Athletic council could
do nothing more than suggest the ad
dition be made. ' .
- "If any changes are made," Fetzer
went on, "I personally would be against
filling the two shells out into a horse
shoe. Everyone wants to sit on the
50-yard line. If we build a horseshoe
some people will be behind the goal
posts. We ought to build back of the
present stands. But all that is of
course up to the discretion of the ar
chitects. But'aViar as crowd appeal
goes, the proper move would be to
forget about filling out the bowl."
The stadium now consists of two
shells in a natural amphitheater sur
rounded by a thick grove of pines.
It may be a double-decker somewhat
similar to Franklin field, home grounds
of the Universilty of Pennsylvania at
Philadelphia.
READY NEXT FALL

is started as soon as possible, an en

the New Deal and the GOP. The pro

many years, Dr. Woodhouse has main

opinion is essential to democracy. On
that basis he accepted the position as
