The two majors in dramatic art are crouched behind the mineralure stage, their hands thrust inside the puppets. There are no strings attached attached to this set. for all the motions are made with motions of the girls' hands. "Little Jack" will appear at the job conference for women students in the Morehead Building tomorrow' and Friday. 'Little Jack' Coming To Plav Before Coeds Litllc Jack is coming to Caro lina tomou'uw. In one ui nia rate appearances before an adult audience, tie will participate in tne joo conlcruice lor women studeiiia utiin; bpoiuored by tne Coed beiiaiu una the YvVCA to morrow una vuday in tne iviore head Lundin.

Little Juck is a nngnty impor tant person to the smaii chUurcn in our schools, lie received last year about aO.OOt) letters from school children. . They conlide in him about such tilings as a new baoy brother, and tney send nun drawings and presents. 'Incy go to Kaieigh to sex- his house and his miniature fair witn a merry-go-round, Fer ris wheel, and side shows ail of which stress dental care and proper diet. Responsible for Little Jack is Dr. Linest Ijianch, Head of the Oral Hygiene Division of the State Hoard of Health. A prac ticing dentist who became af filiated with the State Board of Health ever years ago, Dr. Branch has translated lus love for children and his deep concern for their health and happiness into a program of education through eriU itainment. He has the assistance of an able and en thusiastic staff. A former teacher .and an artist prepare the vast amount of liter ature required by Little Jack's fans. State College students help with the printing. Only such a champion team could produce the All-State hero that Little Jack is. Kcsponsiblc for much of Little Blood Needed Any person willing to donate blood for James O'Conner, Caro lina student now awaiting an operation at Duke University Hospital, is asked to contact the YMCA office. Seven persons have donated blood and at least four more are needed to help replenish the blood bank. No special type of blood is needed. Transportation to Duke will be provided. Jack's popularity arc the two girls who run the show. They handle as many as four parts each. Within a matter of seconds they are a boy, a girl, a man, a woman, a pa (rot, and a goat. Their puppets pick up a tele phone, hammer a box, and dance ui ound the Maypole. Ti'uee limts, a day, five days a week, those girls give the same show. They grow weary of constant travel, but they never lose their enthu siasm lor the show. A child audience, they'll tell you, is wonderful. In the present show, one of the characters can't find his brother; and when Her bert sticks his head out from the curtain and asks his audience, "Has anybody seen my little brother?" the children shout, "No," as they look under their chairs and all around the room. The puppeteers tell of one time when they were packing up, they noticed a pre-school child roam ing and peering around back stage. When asked what he was looking for, he answered, "That little boy." The puppeteers say they landed the job because they happened to be available when a new set of puppeteers was needed. "Try- outs weren't the basis of selec tion," they confess.
