Mate," "Lean Year," and "Outside The
Fire." - " '

work of members pf the troupe, all of
whom have had long training before
attempting professional work. Cos
tumes for each number are also de

Nye Fails
To Release
Tuesday Talk
Campus Speculates
On New Deal Phase
Senator Will Attack
The failure of Senator Gerald P.
Nye definitely to release his Tuesday
night CPU speech' topic aroused some
speculation yesterday as to "just what
phases of the New Deal Nye would
attack now that Congress has seeming
ly approved the latest New Deal mea
sures." ,
The North Dakota isolationist, usu
ally prompt in releasing his speech and
itinerary, has so far failed to inform
CPU officials as to what direction his
Chapel Hill remarks would take.
Regardless of Nye's -speech topic it
was felt on the campus that he will
meet a student body and faculty "fully
prepared to question him competely"
as to his connections with the Wheeler,
Lindbergh faction of the America First
committee. Nye has repeatedly refused
to disassociate himself with what has
commonly been termed the "Fascist
element in the Committee."
It was for this reason that groups
on the campus opposed his appearing
on a CPU platform, in spite of the
Union's policy of open discussion. Fear
arose that Nye would be responsible
for the spread of "too much hate ma
terial-", -

Duties of M. de Longf ief include

afterwards. As they were standing on

WASHINGTON The United Mine
Worker's Union announced late today
that the captive coal mines supplying
the vital war industry steel mills will
be closed at midnight in the dispute
over a union shop in those pits.
A spokesman for the CIO miner's
union made the announcement after
the 200-man policy board of the UMW
received the report from its president,
John L. Lewis, that so far no progress
had been made in direct negotiations
with the steel company executives
who .control the mine.
The action, however, does not mean
that there will be an actual stoppage
of work in the captive mines because
Lewis and his policy committee left
the door open for a possible resump
tion of work Monday morning.

Scholarly HuShih
Called 'Truly
Representative'
Presenting an orator whose views
directly oppose those of French Am
bassador Gaston Henry-Haye, the In
ternational Relations club announced
yesterday that His Excellency Dr. IIu
Shih, Ambassador from the Chiang Kai
Shek government to the United States
will deliver an address at Chapel Hill
under IRC sponsorship Thursday, No-
The Chinese Ambassador's speech is
already expected to stimulate extensive
popular acclaim, Roger Mann, club
leader, disclosed. IRC anticipates
broad radio and press coverage of the
occasion, now scheduled for Memorial
hall at 8 o'clock.
Philosopher Hu Shih is world famous
as an exponent of democratic theory.
No Chinese lives who is so nearly re
presentative of his people. He is uni
versally recognized as the father of
Chinese Renaissance. He created pai
hua, the official simplified language of
all China. His iconoclastic methods
have seen more approval than attack
in his homeland, where tradition and
antiquity are the shoes China has
plodded in for centuries.
Because he had learned America as
well as he had taught China, Dr. Hu
Shih was delegated in 1938 to the pest
of American Ambassador. As Japan
continued her inhuman "incident" with
no relief for Chinese people in sight,
Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek saw
necesity for a skilled technician as a
representative in Washington.
When Hu Shih arrived at the capital,
no snea ais scnoiariy endeavors, dis
carded his sage robe and rolled up his
sleeves. And the oriental humanitar
ian democrat brought home the bacon.
For partial example, Hu Shih obtained
an outright $100,000,000 loan from the
