In spite of the fact that there is enough academic work to keep people, busy until the weekend pause, students still reiterate, "There's nothing to do." We'd like to clear up the matter right away. A student activities group which "aims to please" has tried i,o find out what students want besides the beach. For a first session which has a student population of no larger than that in the early forties, we have ample entertainment. For. instance: The Watermelon Festival, scheduled a few weeks earlier this year to provide a get-acquainted night for everyone. Free movies at the Forest Theatre on Tuesday nights. A welt organized intramural sports program. Lawn concerts and plays produced by the Playmaker's. . The list goes on. Yet perhaps the most promising social event of the sum mer has been the advent of women. Hundreds of girls are here for the first time enjoying the life of a Carolina coed. That six to one ratio which many find intolerable during the fall, winter, or spring, has dipped to lower than 3-1, a good proportion (which makes us feel that things should be changed so that more undergraduate women could attend here permanently. Someone even suggested that all the junior and senior "women at W. C. switch with the UNC freshmen and sophomores, an idea, which if not sound, would at least solve 'the ratio question). Summertime, is a happy time. For the bores who are bored, we suggest that they wake up and enjoy Carolina. American Folklore Tops The fifth annual Carolina Folk Festival sponsored by the Folk lore Council of the University, shifted into high gear last Thursday evening. Norman Cor don, nationally known opera star and resident of Chapel Hill spoke at the formal opening in Kenan Stadium. Bascom Lamar Lunsford of South Turkey Creek, director of the festival, acted as master of ceremonies introduc ing the large number of folk artists : which: had assembled from all over the Carolinas. A jovial, foqtpatting audience gaily responded to the excited quick-time, nervous whine of the fiddles ,and the jogging, plunking of the banjos which accompanied the dance teams and the ballad singers. The Shake-A-Leg dance team from Person County, composed of middle age couples, drew. gasps and sighs fp wondrous admira tion from: ; the ? audience with their ; fancy ' , routines which, through requiring considerable endurance,' j were I done with seemingly ; fcgility. ; ' The Valley Springs, Bucombe County square dance team and the Glenn County School Group both made . up of colorfully dressed teena gers, added de lightful patterned folk dance routines to the evening repe- Twa individual known s tmc VOtCB It a. caocov ft. fHNATRf C.

" Spirited renditions of native American folk songs such -as "The Shot Gun Boogie," and "Good Ole Mountain Dew," sung and played by colorful George Pegramv the state champ banjo picker from Iredell County, de lighted the enthusiastic audience which joined in numerous waves of mass calls for encores. Miss Victoria Kingsley, Bri tish folklore expert and world traveler sang several old tra ditional English ballads includ ing the vell known medieval song-poem, "Death of Robin Hood." The festival which wound up Saturday evening presented an interesting and lively entertain ing cross section of imported and native American folklore ex pressed by the leading artists in this field. - On Campus Have you ever watched your girl squeeze a tooth paste tube? Does she use the death grip, the middle squeeze or the top end squeeze? It might make a difference as to how neat a housewife she'll be. At the University of Wyom ing 20 girls were tested on their tooth paste tube squeezing ha bits. It was found that the girls -who carefully squeezed from the bottom of the tube and roll- ed it &s they went along, tended to be " neat , in other things. Girls who grabbed the tube and squeezed at random tended to be careless. Some of the "earless" girls said they were still half asleep when dealing with the tube and didn't much care how they squeezed it. Canada '(Continued from page 1) unions, loan associations, and co operatives for farmers, besides publishing or editing farm news papers. It wasn't necessary to ask him why he is so healthy, spry, and vigorous after 80 years of life. His handsome features a tanned face with fiery eyes and a good potch' of gray hair make him look 80 years young. A thirst to dolhings, an urge to be active, and broad interests result in physical and mental alertness. He quotes Oliver Wendall Homes words "What have we to do with time but to fill it up with labor." Mr. Canada left yesterday by car to return to La Porte, Texas, where he and his wife live. After selling about 2,000 copies of his book (he's sold half that number already), he, may have a second addition printed with an addi tional chapter on the University entitled, "Chapel Hill, Fifty Years After."
