North Carolina students will have the
pleasure of hearing Mr. Louis K. Ans-pacht-
r. one of the founders of the
Drama league, on the "Spirit of Mod*
ern Drama" in one of the best features
of the 1931-32 lecture program. The
lecture is scheduled for Monday, Octo-ber
26 at 8:30 in Aycock auditorium.
Members of the Play-Likers and
others interested in modern drama will
be interested in his discussion of the
significant plays of today, and in his
points on how the modern theater is
fulfilling the Shakespearian maxim of
"holding up the mirror" to modern
life.
Because of his experience and ability,
Mr. Anspacher is highly recommended,
and ii is certain that his speech will
eontain something worth while for his
audience. The speaker has as a back-ground
his own experiences on the
atage; he knows the theater from be-hind
the scenes as well as from the
viewpoint of the dramatist's study. He
himself was an actor for many years
and has a brilliant record of dramatic
successes. He is the husband of the
distinguished actress, Kathryn Ridder.
Some of the speaker's most notable
successes are: "The New House," "AH
the King's Horses." "The Dancer." "The
Rape of Belgium." "Madame Cecile,"
"That Day." "The Unchastened Wom-en,"
"Onr Children." "The Embarrass-ment
of Riches," and "Tristram and
Isolde," his most recent play.
Mr. Anspacher was for years secular
lecturer at Temple Rmanuel. New York
eity. Then in succession he was ap-pointed
to the permanent lecture staff
of the League for Political Education,
New York, and to the staff of the
Brooklyn Institution of Arts and Sci-ences.
He is considered an ace among
the lecturers there and has held record
audiences. The Anspacher lectures de-livered

VERSATILE PROGRAM
OF CUBAN PIANIST

Senor Jose Echaniz Appears as
First Concert Artist on
Civic Course.
RENDERS MANY ENCORES
Musician Plays Modern Spanish Dances
and Old Standard Compositions
For Large Group.
Senar Jos.' Echaniz delight his audi
ence with an interesting and versatile
program when he appeared as concert
pianist in Aycock auditorium. North
Carolina college on Thursday evening,
October 1.1. This recital opened the
1931-32 civic concert course of Greens-boro,
and was the young Cuban artist'i
second appearance here.
The artist charmed his listeners with
his interpretation of a group of old
ntandard compositions; but if one part
of his program could be said to have
been more favorably received than
another, it was the part devoted to mod-ern
Spanish composer*. The audience
asked for encore after encore.
The following is the first part of
Senor Echaniz's program, after which
he played two compositions by Chopin
and one by Weber as encores: "French
Suite in in G Major.'* Bach; "Apres uno

DR. J. COOK MAKES
TALK AT MEETING
The North Carolina Education
Association Hears N. C. C.
Faculty Member.
SPEAKS ON STATE NEEDS
Dr. John H. Cook, president of the
North Carolina Education association,
spoke at the annual meeting of the
western district of the association,
which opened October 16, in the senior
high school building in Asheville.
Dr. Cook declared that those whose
economic interests conflict with the edu-cational
interests of the children of
the state must not be entrusted with
control of schools. He warned that un-der
state control it is more essential
than ever that those in charge of the
-■■li'.nU be friendly to the schools and
in sympathy with their aims.
He said that "every friend of edu-cntion
munt be alert, active and cour-ageous."
According to Dr. Cook,
friends of good schools must be put in
the assembly, the senate .and the gov-ernor's
mansion. He continued that
good schools can be and must be pre-served.
We are watching hopefully for some
one big enough, wise enough, and
brave enough to carry on the work of
Aycock. Such a man the people of
North Carolina will delight to honor."
Originality in Make-up and
in Subject Matter Is Main
Characteristic of Coraddi
Latest Issue Shows General Improvement Over Former
Numbers—Roberta Johnson's "Living in the World"
Is Best Literary Feature in Prose.
The first issue of the Coraddi, college
monthly magazine, came from the press
Saturday, October 18, featuring a pleas-ing
make-up and original subject mat-ter.
A new staff and several new con-tributors
have brought about a change
in tone which is on the whole an im-provement
on former numbers. The
frontispiece, facing Arline Fonville's
unusual poem, serves as an excellent in-troduction
to the works which follow.
Outstanding in the compliance with
standards of exacting literary critics
are the poetic contributions. Millie
Ogden's poems, characterized by brev-ity
and directness of style, conform to
the Individualists' standards in theme.
Ann Coogan's single poem in this issue
is worthy of special attention. The
rhymes of Penelope Wilson tucked
away among the advertisements are
clever enough to make even that por-tion
interesting.
Of the prose works, Roberta John-son's
"Living in the World" is the best
literary feature. Written in a simple
but direct style, it presents a true
philosophy of living. It is the type of
writing that will help college students.
Helen Shuford expresses in an origi-nal
way the omnipresent cry of editors
for material.
"Pen Feathers," the refuge of those
who indulge in light material, is not so
amusing as usual. If William Tell had
taken less time to miss the apple, he
alone would have justified the existence
of such a section, for Edna Miller writes
vividly and handles her dialogue with
unusual ease. Pattering in the foot-steps
of OTOenry, Rosalind Trent
draws on the melodrama of gang life te
surprise us with a trick ending. Helen
Comer's humorously sarcastic poem,
"Revenge." should be allowed several
chuck lea from the student teachers.
The review of Dorothy Parker's latest
book of poems is cleverly done, as befits
any review of this author's works. If
there is any critcism to be offered it
takes place in the form of a request
for more book reviews, as well done as
this one.

Abbe Ernest Dimnet Discusses
"From a Paris Balcony** in
Address to Students.
INFLUENCES ARE LISTED
Mr. Dlmnet AUo Spcaka of Economic
. Conditions of France and After
World War.
Abbe Krnest Dimaet. noted French
scholar and author, lectured in Aycock
auditorium Monday evening, October
19. at 8:30 on the subject "From a Paris
Balcony." In his lecture Mr. Dimaet
discussed the literary and economic
movements of France during the last
30 years.
Dr. I'mlerwood. of the French depart-ment,
introduced the speaker as a dis-tinguished
teacher, philosopher, scholar,
and prieat. Mr. Dimnet probably has
a more sympathetic understanding of
the English people than any of his fel-low
countrymen; he is often called
"the link between France and Eng-land."
He has studied English from
his childhood and has taught English
literature in French schools. He is
a well-known author, both on the con-tinent
and in America; some of his most
important works are: "The Art of
Thinking." "Paul Bourget," "The
Bronte Siaters." "France Herself
Again." and "Tendencies of French
Thought " In 1!*29 he delivered the
Lowell lectures at Harvard and since
that time has made several lecturo
tours of America.
n his lecture Mr. Dimnet outlined
the movements in French literature that
he has witnessed from his balcony in :
Paris. At the end of the 19th century
realism held sway in French thought,

All students who want to have pic-tures
made from the annual proofs
are requested to see Marian Hoto-man
In regard to prices and styles.
The fair damsels of the North Caro-lina
college are well on the way to self-support,
if one is to judge from the
bulletin boards. Hair-wavers, manicur-ists,
steamstresses, cleaners' agents,
saleswomen of Jocur, and of second-hand
shoes advertise themelves.
There are some workers, however, who
do not advertise. There is one girl
who makes professorial garments. This
practice not only acords spending
money for the girl and service to the
professor, but it brings about a closer
relationship between student and fac-ulty.
Students also serve the professors
and their wives in caring for the chil-dren.
While father takes mother to
the movies or to a faculty dinner, a
young woman from the college comes
In to keep the kids out of mischief.
These young women believe that they
are helping to keep the faculty mar-riages
out of the divorce courts.
And then there is the "million-dol-lar
baby in the five and-ten." Her
outlook is becoming broadened. She
can meet life with a clearer aspect since
she has come in contact with the
public.
The college girls are talking now of
running the campus on a communistic
basis. The girls will raise the raw
materials, manufacture the products,
consume these materials; and thereby
reduce expenses to almost nothing. It
is understood that the petition will be
written when the leaders in the move-ment
decide whether the faculty will
be given a chance to join.

Airy, in charge of the program.

a stern and implacable principal
who just would not be impressed.
