ViL MNkV Season Open for Hunting of Quail, Turkey, Rabbit It Will Continue through Janu ary 10; Licenses on Sale at Stores Here and in Carrboro s The woods around Chapel Hill echoed with gunfire yesterday as the hunting season opened on quail, rabbit, and turkey. The season will continue through January 10, and the dove season (now closed) will reopen Janu ary 1 and last through January 20. It is illegal to hunt on Sun day. Bag limits are as follows: quail, 8; rabbit, 7; turkey, 1. Hunting licenses are on sale at the Huggins Hardware store in Chapel Hill and at the Lloyd- Bay store in Carrboro. The prices for a county license are sl.lO for residents and $15.75 for non-residents. A resident's state license costs $3.10. The trapping season will open December 1 and last till Febru ary 15. Orange county hunting grounds are being patrolled by Game Protector Robert Logan, whose headquarters are here. Mr. Logan recently returned here from Statesville/where for several years he had been super visor of game protection in Dis trict 7. "A lot of people ask me why I resigned from the supervisor’s job and came back here," Mr. Logan said when he visited the newspaper office this week. "It was because my wife and I were always wishing we were ia Ptimnml ftilL y * be here than anywhere else." Mr. and Mrs. Ldgan and their six-year-old daughter Ruth live in one of Obie Davis's houses at the corner of Columbia and North streets. Their two older children are married and have homes elsewhere. „ P.T.A. Council Will Meet Tuesday Evening i The Orange County Council of the Parent-Teachers Association will meet at the Hillsboro School at 7:30 Tuesday evening. The program will consist of a discus sion of the report of the State Education Commission, particu larly as it applies to Orange county. The speakers will be the three members of the Education Commission who were from Orange: W. H. Plemmons, John W. Umstead, Jr., and Clarence Heer. As this was one of the counties chosen by the com mission for special study, Or ange citizens have been awaiting the report of the Commission with great interest. The purpose of the county council of the P. T. A. is to bring together the members of the various P.T.A.'a in the coun ty, and to provide opportunities for the discussion of common school needs and problems. All who are interested in the schools of the county are urged to at tend Tuesday evening’s meeting. Earlier Printing Schedule This issue of the Weekly was printed one day earlier than usual, on Wednesday instead of Thursday, so that the Orange Printshop force could be off duty on Thanksgiving Day. But we have given the paper the usual Friday date line. If you mi*s a piece of news that would have ordinarily got in, about some thing that happened after Wed nesday noon, you will know, from this notice, why it's not here. The Chapel HOl Weekly Louis Graves Editor Carolina to Play Virginia Tomorrow; 110 Report Yet about Bowl Game The' University of North Carolina and the University of Vir ginia will meet tomorrow in Charlottesville in their annual foot ball game. The kickoff is set for 2 o’clock. Since the Duke game last week there has been more talk here about the question of which bowl, if any, Carolina will play in New Year’s Day than about the Virginia game. Though this paper bears the usual Friday date-line, it was printed a day earlier than usual (because of the printers’ Thanks giving holiday), hence some bowl news may have come out in the daily papers by the time you get the Weekly. The latest news as we go to press is that Carolina has been invited to the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas, but that there has been no decision on acceptance or rejection. The hesitation appears to be due to the uncertainty as to whether there will be an invitation to the Sugar Bowl game in New Orleans. The New Orleans people want to know the results of tomorrow’s games befqre they decide what teams to invite. All the tickets allotted to the athletic office here for the game have been sold. It is doubtful if any more will be received. Over 3,000 people are expected to go from Chapel Hill to see the game. The Carolina-Virginia game tomorrow will be the 53rd in an historic rivalry that brings back memories to thousands of old time Cavaliers and Tar Heels. Carolina holds an advantage of 26 wins over 23 for Virginia, with three ties. The undefeated but once-tied Tar Jleels are heavy favorites to gain their ninth win of the season over this year’s Virginia team which has won six games.and Iqst two (to Princeton and George Washington). However, many sports writers believe Virginia has a stronger team than most Tar Heel supporters realize. Joe McCary, the quarterback and captain of the Cavalier team, is expected to play Saturday after being out for a month with a broken hand. Prior to his injury, he had completed 22 out of 42 passes. With McCary and the star Virginia fullback, Johnny Papit, leading the attack, the Cavaliers -may easily prove to be a formid able obstacle in the way of an undefeated season for Carolina and a bowl trip on New Year’s Day. “School for Sc&ndar Four Tiroes Next Week Sheridan’s "The School for Scan dal,” the celebrated 18th century comedy, will be presented ms the seeoiul majer Caroline Playmaker production nt 8:80 next week the nights of December 1,2, 3, end 4in ths theatre.

The new company will be the 40th sent out since the Playmakers were organized 31 years ago. Chapel Hiliians in the cast include Hilda Sharkey, Sue Davia, and Lynn Facelty Club to Hear Waynick Capus Waynick, who became chairman of the State Democra tic Executive Committee after conducting the successful cam paign of Kerr Scott for Gover nor in the primary last May, will be the speaker at the faculty club luncheon at 1 o’clock Tuesday at the Carolina Inn. His topic will be “Recent Political Events and Trends.” Milton’s Clothing Cupboard Milton's Clothing Cupboard, now men’s clothing store owned by Milto i Julian, will have a grand opening at 9 o’clock Monday morning in its new building at 420 West Franklin street, across from the Farmers Dairy. An open house celebration will be held Monday and Tueaday, with delicates sen to be served. There also will be special opening-week prices. The store, laid out inside in cup board-like fashion, is pine-paneled throughout, with matching Welsh covered, knotty-pine fixtures designed by Mrs. Julian. A replica of “The Old Weil,” two-thirds the size of the ac tual one, will be used as a shoe rack. Most of the shoes to be displayed were designed and detailed by Mr. Julian and made especially for him by Stone-Tarlow of Broekton, Maas. Mra. J. 1.. Hatton Still Wears Cast Mrs. J. L. Sutton, who returned to the village from Watts hospital last week, i* still not abla to go back to work. The body east she is wearing as a result of an injury she received in the store, recently will have to be kept on for at least three months longer. Mrs. Sutton, in addition to suffering physical discomfort from the cast, is unable to get into any of her neatly tailored clothes. CHAPEL HILL, N. C, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26, IMS Gault Harry Davie ie directing the play, and Irene Smart has designed the elaborate historical costumes. The touring company will include 19 students, Mr. Davie, and Mr. Gault, and will travel by bus throughout this state and in South Carolina. It will give performances at High Point, Gastonia, Asheville, Statesville, Spar tanburg, Buie's Creek, W'Umington, Rocky Mount, and Goldsboro. Movie of Migrating Birds, in Color, Will Be Shown Monday Evening at Pick Theatre A color movie on bird migra tion will be shown at 8 P.M, Monday at the Pick theatre by Roger Tory Peterson, famous author and artist. It will be the first in a series of five wildlife movies to be given here this sea son by the Chapel Hill Bird Club. The admission price, for non holders of season tickets, will be 60 cents for adults and 30 cents for children under 18. Season tickets for the series ($2.40 for adults, $1.20 for children) are on sale at Ledbetter-Pickard’s and will also be on sale at the box office. The club’s profits from Want worth & Sloan,'jewelers, came through with perhaps the neatest and most interesting window display in celebration of the Duke-Carolina game. Green velveteen material repre sented a football Aeld across which a toy Carolina Choo-Choo train was headed in the direction of a bowl of sugar. The four trophies awarded for the best Aosta in the pre-game parade and small penanta denoting the teams played by the victorious Tar Heels this season completed the display. * • * The Carolina theatre had two late shows (Friday and Saturday nights) apropos of the big game. ♦ • * When the photographer from Look magazine dropped in at the Rath skeller last Saturday night, he found, as the Holiday magazine photog rapher failed to And at the previous week-end, plenty of Carolina coeds to brighten up bis shots. There were a fpw Duke folk* around, boldly dis playing “Best Carolina” badges. * * The Carolina Sport Shoo is featur ing some amazing glasses which hold up to 80 ounces of liquid. Painted in red on the sides are such challenges as “Can you beat it?” see The Bank of Chapel Hill will have Chapel Hill Chaff Football players of my student generation (1899-1902) are nat urally looked upon as old-timers in the game, but they are* late comers beside one I had a talk with last Saturday, Dr. Hubert A. Royster. He was playing on the Wake Forest team in the fall of 1888, just 60 years ago, when Wake Forest and Carolina met for the first time. In the lobby of the Carolina Inn last Friday night I saw a man who was on the University team that same year, George M. Graham. When Wake Forest is not in volved, Dr. Royster is a hot Carolina fan. Carolina’s failing to win from William and Mary three weeks ago made him sad, he was in a more cheerful mood when I saw him after the Duke game. Dr. Royster retired from the practice of surgery a few years ago because of a heart attack. From his vigorous appearance and bubbling spirits when I saw him Saturday I would never have thought that there had been anything the matter with his heart or any other part of his body. I would have thought, rather, that he could still give a pretty good performance on the football field. * * • Noel Houston telephoned me after he read the piece in last week’s issue about Congressman Carl Durham’s asking the Con gressional Library to tell him what the word genocide meant. "If Carl hasn’t yet learned who coined the word," said Mr. Hous ton, "he may be surpriaad to know that it was one of hit own constituents, a professor in Duke University. At the moment (Contmmod on pngo 9) the five movies will be used to buy books for the Chapel Hill public school libraries. The title of Monday’s film is "The Riddle of Migration." Ad vance publicity on it says: "The fascinating mysteries of bird migration are revealed in this magnificent color film, which is the combined work of .several of America’s greatest nature pho tographers. It provides wonder ful entertainment as it follows the feathered voyagers up and down the world from zone to zone." Franklin Street Notes By Betsy Brunk on view for the rest of the week a pure white squirrel which was trapped in Rowan county and mount ed by Robert Logan, Orange county geme warden. It was Arst exhibited at a meeting of the county Wild Lift Club Monday at the Town Hell and at the Kiwanis club meeting Tuesday. The rare albino animal looks alive enough to apring from the wooden log on which he ia poised. Kenneth Putnam, one of the Wild Life Club members and a teller in the bank, is guarding him from all unbelievers who would like to apply the touch test. ♦ • • The candy refrigerator and bar which the Carolina Pharmacy has had on order for almost two years same Monday from the Pangburn company. «* ' • Huggins Hardware store, retailer for town hunting licenses, has no ticed no increase thia fall in the de mand for licenses and equipment— although the sport seems to be in creasing in popularity in othar sec tions. • • * Bennett A Blocksidge received a modest supply of Christmas tree light bulbs this week. Despite the fact that (Ctmtinuoi on page five) Despite Loss of G. L Students, No Falling-Off Is in University's Total EnroOment New Secretary Mrs. Mildred Cartee, former clerk of the War Ration Board here, has been appointed secre tary-treasurer of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Merchants Asso ciation. The appointment was made at a meeting of the asso ciation’s directors Monday eve ning at the Carolina Inn. A selection committee com posed of L. J. Phipps (chair man), Harvey Bennett, and E. C. Smith recommended Mrs. Cartee for the place. She succeeds Mrs. Lois Cran ford, who has been serving the Merchants Association and F. 0. Bowman, executive secretary of the N. C. Bottlers Association, each on a half-time basis. Hence forth Mrs. Cranford will be full time secretary for Mr. Bowman. Besides serving for the Ra tion Board, Mrs. Mildred Cartee has held posts with the Hazzard Motor Company, the University, and (most recently) with S. H. Basnight. She will assume her ' new duties next month. Dr. W. P. Jacocks Is Coining Here to Live Dr. William P. Jacocks is going to move from Raleigh to Chapel Hill in January. In the beginning he will live at the Inn. Whether he will get other quar ters later, and, if so, when, he is not yet certain. Dr. Jacocks, a native of Wind sor, was graduated from the University in 19041; took his M.A. degree here in 1905; end took his M.D. degree at the Uni versity of Pennsylvania in 1911. For many years he was director of the International Health Board (Rockefeller Foundation) work in India and Ceylon. Since his retirement from that post he has been with the N. C. Board of Health. In his student days here Dr. Jacocks was a football star. Since then, as a spectator (or, when far distant, a radio listen er and sports-page reader), he has been just as enthusiastic about football as when he played himself. He rarely misses a game in Chapel Hill. And he visits the village on other occasions. He has many friends here, includ ing Dr. William MacNider, Felix Hickerson (a classmate), Dr. Foy Roberson (who should he counted a Chapel Hillian even 1f he does live in Durham county), Louis Graves, Clyde Eubanks, Bruce Strowd, Collier Cobb, W. C. Coker, and Archibald Hender son. Mm. ioh mi on, Harriet League Speaker Mra.

Tippett, Chapel HIU writer of children's books, will apeak. An exhibit of children's Christmas book* from the Bull's Head and Ab'a Intimate Bookshop will bo prepared. Everyone is invited. ISiYwiiMm CcbG m Large Reservoir of Appfteaita Who Cannot Be Admitted New Because of OvsrrrowtKiig A reservoir corresponding to a manufacturer's "backlog of orders" will prevent the Univer sity’s total enrollment from fall ing off as a result of the loss of the G. I. students. This is the expectation of Roy Armstrong, the University’s director of admissions; an ex pectation founded on evidence that has accumulated in his of fice in the form of applications from would-be students and in the form of North Carolina birth-rate and high school census figures. The reservoir is made up of, first, young men and women in other states who want to attend the University but who cannot be admitted now because of our overcrowded condition, and, sec ond, the rapidly increasing num ber of North Carolina high school students who intend to have a college education. "We have fewer G. I. students, this year than last year but a to tal enrollment larger by about 100," said Mr. Armstrong yes terday. "We are in a state of ‘saturation.’ We have not ham able to take in more than about 200 new out-of-state students. Hundreds mate would be here today if we had been able to ad mit them. "Our records show a steadily increasing jyfcptUW, of North Carolina high school students who are seeking admission to University, two hundred and seventy high schools are now represented in the freshman class, many more than ever be fore. And when we make esti mates for the future we have to bear in mind that it won’t be long now before the high war time birth-rate will be reflected in university and college attend ance." Laurinburg Got Title In Drawing of Lots It was a sad and bitter ending to a glorious football season. The Chapel Hill high school teem had gone through its regular season undefeated and untied, for the first time in 88 years. Then came Laurinburg and the mud. Last Friday, the Chapel Hill boys went to Laurinburg to play for the eastern Class “A” championship. The game, played in e drenching rain storm, ended in e tie, 6-6. Collier Hill of Chapel Hill suffered a crucial in-, jury, a twist of the knee, and had to leave the game. In order that one of the teams could qualify for the State champlenehip game with Mt. Airy this week-end, Laurinburg end Chapel Hill bad either to play off the game early this week or drew for the eastern chant | pionship. The Laurinburg coach agreed to come here for a game Tuea day, but he wee overruled by some person or persons in Laurhibarg end • the game was canceled. This made a drawing of lots ths only wsy of de ciding the championship. In ths draw ing Laurinburg won.
