These and many other bark ers' cries rang out in the Tin Can yesterday afternoon as students and faculty members were treat ed to the most entertaining Student-Faculty day the campus has seen and enjoyed. The annual holiday started off right with a successful "Pop Quiz," broadcast over station WRAL Raleigh, and which fea tured Dr. Benjamin Swalin of the music department, football coach Ray Wolf, and other fac ulty members. The carnival, already men tioned above was a typical car nival and a tribute to the many dormitories, fraternities and many others who labored long hours to bring us the best Stu dent-Faculty day in its Six-year Heigh and asked the trouble. history.

It is possible to translate them to our own lives. To the caves we may know. To the chains that some of us may have felt around us. This is all a little far-fetched per haps. But all of us have seen this fable played out in the common 'coca cola' life of America. So take the tale. Interpret it! Play with the idea as you will. Maybe you can translate it to a part of Univer sity life. ' Maybe to a man who isn't "in" with the bridge society back home.

There may even be those who set their course by things that are only thin shadows of real life, sitting oh so smugly in the mediocre chains of convention. But if we recognize this, we can cross old Plato up and break our chains.

It centers on the character of a simple, guileless mountaineer who unwitting- y makes life miserable for his brother's wife. "Whipplesnout," Miss Boylston's play for children, is a charming fan tasy of frog world, written in the same delightful vein as her "Old Man Taterbug," which played to an enthus iastic juvenile audience here last year. The story revolves about Whipple snout, the old family nurse with a heart of gold, who loses her job and hen comes back to it just as disaster is about to strike.
