Noted Ballet Troupe To Play Chapel Hill Daring Southern Tour Dancers En Route, acclaimed one of the country's most outstanding dance groups, will appear at the Playmaker theater Monday night at 8:30 o'clock. Described as "dramatic and moving" by critics from coast to coast, these dancers have the ability to mold fa miliar gestures and crude emotions in to works of art, as well as to project moods or to put over subtle satire. Youthful to the extent of not being bound by the traditions and conven tions of the dance, the artists of "Dan cers En Route" are creators rather than mere imitators of longer established dance groups. Though the members of the group have been associated with the com panies of Hanya Holm, Ruth Denis Veronica Pataky, and Ted Shawn, they have brought a fresh viewpoint to their art. Knights and Brothers Kappa Alpha to Celebrate Sixty Year Anniversary Men Work in Dark At First Meetings The Carolina chapter of Kappa Al pha is this month celebrating with special ceremonies the sixtieth anni versary of the granting of its charter. The chapter received its charter No vember 25, 1881, and was called Upsi lon. Commemorating this date," the official pledging of 16 students who have verbally affirmed their desire to pledge the chapter will take place with S. T. Peace, of Henderson, of ficiating. Tomorrow in conjunction with the Carolina-Duke football game and the University's fall dances, a banquet and informal reception for alumni have been planned at the house, 110 Cameron avenue. Although founded in 1881, it was not until 1885 that the existence of the fraternity on the campus was known. Secret organizations were not allowed at the University at the time, but several had been established and were meeting at night. ' In 1885, J. i S. Mann, of Raleigh, who was prei dent of the senior class, was also pres ident of the KA chapter. When, in addressing an assembled meeting of the senior class, he absentmindedly began, "Knights and brothers of the Kappa Alpha Order," the fact that at least one fraternity was function ing at Carolina was revealed. Since then fraternities have existed openly here. Upsilon chapter of Kappa Alpha has been in continuous operation for 60 years with the exception of a three year period in the 1890's when it was inactive. Among its members, sev eral men have' risen to prominence. Some of these are Congressman J. A. Kerr, of the second district of North Carolina; State Supreme Court Jus tice William A. Devin; Superior Court Justices Vernon Cooper and E. Y. Webb; Dr. W. P. Jacocks, representa tive of the Rockefeller Foundation in public health at Delhi, India; former Knight Commander of KA Ed Cham bers Smith; and Randolph Scott, the movie actor. The present house in the court with Kappa Sigma and Zeta Psi was built in 1929. Original plans called for the house to face Cameron avenue, but due to some mixup, it was constructed with its side facing Cameron avenue. Everything was rectified, however, when the remainder of the lot was sold to the Kappa Sigs and the Zetes and the present court formed. The Kappa Alpha Order was found ed at Washington College in Lexing ton, Va., December 21, 1865, by Jaines Ward Wood, of Lost River, W. Va.; William Nelson Scott and Stanhope M. Scott, both of Lexington, Va.; and William Archibald Walsh, of Rich mond, Va. Predominantlysouthern, the KA'a have extended their chapters and membership so that 'today there are 65 active chapters 'from coast to coast south of the Mason-Dixon line "from the Lone Star State to the Golden Gate, from New Orleans to Balti more," as the song goes. The present membership of 29,000 includes General George C. Marshall, chief of staff of the U. S. Army; J. Edgar Hoover, of the FBI; Admiral Richard E. Byrd; Niles Trammell, president of the Na tional Broadcasting Company; and Senator Claude Pepper, of Florida. KA officers of Carolina are J. Em mett Sebrell, president; George A. Foote, vice-president; and Holley Mack Bell, secretary. Other officers are Bob Page, Arthur Jacocks, John Church, Dutch; Seifert, John Gribbin and Steve Pillar. RIVALRY (Continued from first page) Georgia Tech 14-0, and Davidson 56-0. Carolina has played eight games and has won only three of them. Losses have come at the hands of South Carolina, Fordham, Tulane, Wake Forest, and N. C. State. The three victories were at the expense of Davidson, Lenoir-Rhyne, and Rich mond. On paper the Tar Heels aren't even conceded. an outside chance of win ning. But strange things in this series have happened before, notably in 1927 when Carolina" upset a team regard ed some 25 to 30 points stronger by 18-0, and in 1935 when Duke bowled over an apparently bowl-bound Tar Heel team 25-0. The Tar Heels hit a pealc perform ance against Fordham recently and narrowly missed winning. They play ed far over their heads last season to upset Duke 6-3, and they have these two previous magnificent perform ances as inspirations to lead them on in preparations for tomorrow's game. SUPERSTITIONS - - Continued from first page) doubles as varsity pitcher, is very superstitious about that 'ole number 13, and Charles Gordon, sophomore guard, decorates his ankle tape with a secret initial before each game.- Henry "Toby" Webb, one of the smallest players on the squad, al ways insists on wearing a dirty prac tice shirt during every drill. Johnston Quiet Jack Johnston has plenty of oppo sition when it comes to keeping the dressing room quiet as the entire team keeps up a constant stream of chatter and laughter. North Hinkle and Cyrus Hogue, managers, will not carry the stretcher on the field unless it. is covered with a Carolina blanket. Morris Mason, colored helper and friend of all the boys, has yet to wear a tie on the field and never goes with out his lucky rabbit's foot. However, there are many members of the team, Cox, Barksdale, Dunkle, White, Sieck, and Richardson who hold no faith in any superstitious idiosyncrasy of any size, shape, color, : or weight, but odds are on that not one of them would tempt fate by walking under a ladder or having a black cat cross their paths before game time. It really isn't superstition, college boys aren't made that way. Perhaps - - . r .nv.. . - - f ; X ' j . - . . I . . . - - v . r ; . I It : - a . V , - J .

Tea Time in Murphey Becomes Accepted Rite By Bob Levin Carolina is noted 'for its time hon ored tradition tradition that is asso ciated with the old South, and yet, in room 302, Murphey hall, there is a typical English custom that has held the best good luck charm of all would be to do exactly what the majority of the boys said: "Get out there and fight like hell." But maybe it would be a lot safer if they would keep on dressing slow ly, rolling up their sleeves, dreaming, and chewing gum. It can't hurt and who can tell? sway for the last 13 years. In a dusty, cramped office, lined with numerous volumes and an assortment of tables and desks littered with books and papers, this curious practice, now almost an institution, is enacted daily. Dr. Urban T. Holmes Jr., professor of Romance Philology, has held the dual role of professor-host at his 4 o'clock classes since 1929. Every af ternoon at 5 o'clock Holmes's classes. adjourn to his office where education is forgotten as tea and cookies are served to graduate students. Hosts for this quaint practice are chosen at the beginning of the year by a former member of Holmes' classes who assigns the dates for the students to rotate. Water is boiled in the office small one-burner electric stove 'out to joke with his students. and served in dainty blue and white china cups with slightly tarnished sil ver spoons. The host for the afternoon furnishes the cakes and assumes the title of chief cook. The entire affair never lasts over 15 minutes, during which all manner of topics are discussed in a most in formal manner. N matter how large the class, everyone is assured a cup of tea during this breathing spell. The simplicity and hominess of this pleasantly odd custom is to be admired. Dr. Holmes deserves all kind of praise for his attempt to keep education from becoming mired in a much too formal rut. Carolina hasn't yet turned into a perpetual motion educational machine as long as Dr. Holmes can take time XSB2C-l-ltfs the Navy's new dive bombing sensation Test Pilot Bill Ward at the stick on a ZTTXTjrursr'!
