W.Franklin At Night: Quiet Reigns
BY RON SHUMATE
West Franklin Street at night
is like a town in itself. It is
not at all like its counterpart
On the other side of Columbia
Street.
For nocturnal West Franklin
paints an entirely different pic
ture for its other and longer
half, with its near-deserted side
walks and streets, its bareness
of the "night people" and a
quietness uncommon to a uni
versity town.
, Only a few places display any
sort of life: the service stations,
a couple of eateries, beer par
lors and a tool hall.
The . bus station, relatively
quiet during the daytime, is all
but dead after sundown, as
darkness seems to frighten any
would-be late travelers back into
the safety of their homes. The
10:30 bus from Charlotte comes
in to a darkened station, occa
sionally deposits a passenger and
moves on into the night, leav
ing the lightless station sitting
quietly on its little hill.
Across the street a cafe light
blinks with monotonous regulari
ty. Two lovers stroll along the
street, pausing to look in the
Window of a grocery store, and
then move on, arm in arm.
Occasional laughter drifts out
of a pool hall, Coats on the soft
eight air, and then is lost in the
noises of a passing car.
And then all is quiet again.
But the silence is short-lived,
Medicine and N. C. Memorial
Hospital.
Other enrollment includes 212
in the School of Business Admin
istration; 245 in the School of
Education; 13 from the School of
Journalism; 100 in Law School;
71 in the School of Library
Science; and 48 in the School of
Nursing.
Fifty-eight are enrolled in the
School of Public Health; 13 in
the Department of City Plan
ning, four in the School of Social
Work, and seven in Geology.
One is enrolled as a medical
technician, and there are 117
in the National Science Founda
tion program for school teachers
in special courses in mathe
matics and sciences.
In addition to the 3,837, there
are also 158 interns, residents
and fellows with the School of
Change Of Address
Ray Jefferies, assistant to the
Dean of Student Affairs, reminds
students who have changed their
addresses since spring semester to
be sure to send in a change-of-address
form to the post office.
If students fail to do this, says
Jefferies, they will not get the
mail that comes to their old ad
dresses, as it will be sent back to
the sender.
QUIET Wesl Franklin St. at night stretches
like a piece of black tape through western Cha
as carloads of college and teen
age students prowl the streets,
with the students emitting howls
of laughter that jab through the
night air like pins through a
piece of thin tissue paper.
A police car prowls the streets,
returning from its round a few
minutes later, with the same
policemen, the same expression
less faces.

Further west there is more
activity, as the Negro commu
nity comes out into the night to
laugh and cajole. And their
laughter and banter permeates
the air and drifts around on the
quiet spring breezes that spora
dically drop down out of no
where, sweep up the block and
then are gone again and forgotten.

And while quietness hangs like
a dome over West Franklin, a
buzz of activity goes on two
blocks east, where the "night
people" drift from place to
place, never knowing that there
is a West Franklin Street and
not caring.
It is as Kipling said: "East is
East, and West is West, and
never the twain shall meet."

Charlie Chaplin
In Film Festival
Here Thursday
Charlie Chaplin baggy pants,
derby hat, black mustache and
all will be featured in this
week's Summer Cinema, Thurs
day at 7:30 p.m. in Carroll Hall.
The feature is a series of ex
cerpts from 12 comedies Chap
lin made during his prime in
1916. Almost all the elements of
his art may be found in these
short comedies, from which he
borrowed and expanded on later
in his feature productions.
Today nearly all of Chaplin's
films are considered classics.
The selections in this film offer
a sampling of his early art, the
beginnings of a type of satire to
be mimicked by succeeding com
edians for many years.
Much of the credit for estab
lishing the motion picture as a
popular form of entertainment
must be given to this man,
Charles Spencer' Chaplin.
George Bernard Shaw called
Chaplin "The only genius in mo
tion pictures." i
James Agee said, in Life,
" . . . The finest pantomine,
the deepest emotion, the richest
and most poignant poetry ia
Chaplin's work . . . Even if he
had never gone on to make his
magnificent feature-length come
dies, Chaplin would have made
his period in movies a great one
singlehanded even if he had
made nothing except "The
Cure," or "One A.M."
