Last Friday afternoon the day of the beer ran- was the day of the Phi Delta Theta'beer drinking contest. The contest, a single elimination deal with four-man teams from the campus fraternities drinking against each other, looked like a protest against the Anti-Saloon League. Hut the drinking, not so mucn me contest was the Matthews To Small By JEFF ISHEE Tuesday night Clifton Matthews, instructor in piano here played to a meager house in Hill Hall, a good deal less than he deserved. Opening the program was Anton Webern's "Variations," -Op. 27 (1937). A typical Webern piece, it is brief (5 minutes), and emotionally detached, a thoroughly satisfactory opener. Next Matthews performed the great Schubert "Sonato in G Major, ' D. 894. An unusual work ranging in mood from very serious to charming, this piece is neither as dramatic or as searing as contemporary sonatas of Beethoven. But on the other hand it has a grace and a warmth which is not to ue iuuna in ueetnoven. Matthews played it with vitality and much grace. tv I he trio of the minuet was especially delightful. Bnt most important, this performance was imbued with the warmth and humanity which is the essence of Schubert. The third number on the program was the "Cappricio" (1962) by Matthew's former teacher, Lionel Nowak. It is a difficult, tremendously energetic atonal work, and, as far as this reviewer is concerned, that is about all. The pianist played it well, getting out of it all that was there. To close the program Matthews performed magnificently the "Twelve Preludes, Book II" of Claude Debussy. These delightful pieces capture perfectly the peculiar programmatic nature which is impressionism pondering a subject rather than dramatizing it. Though employing these techniques, these pieces do not have the wistful sensuousness of Debussy's latest works. Instead, they are perfect jewels of impressionistic thought. Matthews obviously understands and likes this music, for he took the 12 pieces and welded them into one perfect whole. He reached into the greatest depths of the music, and employing all of his considerable artistry, brought forth a gem of rare quality and lustre. It was without doubt the finest performance of Debussy tnis reviewer has encountered. It is a more people were not there to hear it. DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Illegal block on the gridiron 5.

THESE Q8! Beer Drippy faces, a few wet beards and sticky shirts were the norm. Some of the contestants put more in their noses and down their backs than in their mouthes. "Damn," one guy says after his team lost in the first round and he had poured beer over most areas of his body, "we've got a bunch of drinking for us." "The zetes've got the greatest anchor man I've ever seen." a spectator tells his girl friend. The contest was no place for amateur drinkers. The PiKA's, who lost three of their starters off last year's team were good, but not quite up to last year's level. "We choked. We just got beat," Mike Erb, PiKA team coach says. "We drunk our first round (four tails) in 17.5 seconds," he says looking down at his beer can. "When the Phi Delts beat us, we drunk the round in 18 seconds and something. 1 . By MERIDETH MULLINS 1949 The men's honor council upheld the spirit of 1949 and the spirit of the "Carolina 1949 BEAUTY Gentleman" in a case involving a campus code violation by ;off icially reprimanding a student who forced a co-ed to walk home from a date. TestimQ revealed the student got angered at his date when she declined his invitation to "park for awhile" so he told her to "hoof if-home." The girl was late for closing hours because of the incident. I ndef inite suspension was given to a student who claimed unintentional peripheral vision caused him to look at- a quizmate's answers.

"Mighty Joe Young" ran strong at the Carolina Theatre, "a masterpiece of amazement and excitement with the ten most terrific thrills ever filmed." plus an added attraction of films of UNC card stunts. New dance rules were established. Automatic indefinite suspensions were given to anyone bringing intoxicating beverages on the floor or anyone giving a wrong name. The highlight of the movie year was W.C. Fields' "My Little Chickadee"starring Mae West. Parking regulations controlling student parking in restricted campus areas went into effect and all violators were tried in town court. Tom S hetley (?) a psychology major and local hypnotist was a main attraction as he did his stuff at the Chapel Hill Veteran's Club.

In a plea for a new student union, editorialists pointed out that Graham Memorial was outdated at its completion in 1931 (between time when construction was begun and when completed, enrollment increased 80.) A Student Party meeting turned into a verbal free for all when sophomore class president nominations were made. Bedlam broke loose on the issue which had apparently been in behind the scenes contention for a long time. dress materials. All of the items were made and imported from India. Unlike last year's bazaar sales, new items will be featured each day to continue the stock.

Asheville-Biltmore College sits poised on a hilltop within the city limits of the town Thomas Wolfe made infamous and immortal in "Look Homeward AngeL" Barely five years old, A-B, along with Wilmington College, is being considered for entrance into the Consolidated University of North Carolina. Asheville-Biltmore is approved under this plan, would become UNC at Asheville. The compact campus centers around a snowy white library, periodically sandblown to keep it bright Double Chinese red doors slash the front of the library. The other buildings, including the seven dormitories, are white brick. From a neighboring hillside, the campus looks like the Greek Acropolis in its heydey. It is the one true experimental college in the state. The small senior liberal arts college, with approximately 750 students, uses a grading scale similar to the system recommended at Rutgers College in New Jersey. A faculty member at Rutgers has recommended a Fail, Pass and Distinction grading system. A-B uses a bazaar are documentary films on India which will be shown every three or four hours depending upon the availability of space at the Foundation. Half of the net proceeds from the bazaar will go to the Chapel Hill Public Library for books on India. The Indian Association now has an endowment of $1000, the interest from which goes towards prizes for a yearly essay contest among high school students. This year's essay topic will be on some aspect of Mahatama Gandhi in observance of his centennial. Dr. S.C. Jain at the UNC Population Center is chairman of the bazaar. REGISTERED TRADEMARK FOR MOCCASIN CASUALS A College High-Pass, Good. Pass, and Fail system. Other institutions in the state (including UNC accept the Pass grade asa'C A-B originally had only a three point grading scale corresponding to the or.e recommended at Rutgers. Students, however, complained the wide pass range stifled the incentive of good students. Theoreticallv. there is no "D" in the A-B scale. A student cannot meet the minimum requirements for passing, the reasoning goes, and be unable to transfer the course for credit. This is why other colleges accept the "P" asa"C". The Daily Tar Heel in an editorial last Friday speculated on what it would be like if Chancellor Sitterson were to announce a policy of unlimited cuts. How does the policy affect class attendance at A-B College? Class attendance is generally high. The reasons? The instructors and professors must earn the students' attendance. A dull lecturer may drone to a half empty classroom for awhile, but he soon gets the message that he'd better liven things up if he wants students to come. Secondly, almost all math and science classes demand regular student attendance. Thirdly, A-B has found that students need little prodding to attend courses in their major. Lastly, A-B sets up discussion sections for most courses. Those students who send a representative to take notes are not penalized. If they manage to acquire the notes and review them for the discussion class held each week, fully. They can participate Independent study is encouraged. Superior students are exempt from attending regular classes. Each is assigned a faculty tutor, and no grades are given. Instead the student receives a lengthy written evaluation from the tutor upon completion of either a written or oral examination. At Asheville-Biltmore College there are no bored yawrning students in class nor are there any empty classes. Asheville-Biltmore College Is making two educational experiments work. MADE ONLY BV G. H.
