The University's prize boxer,

Mr.. Warren has been in Phil.

he has a night job there, he has
his afternoons off and it's then
that he INDUCES in his favorite
sport.
"Bill, / wish you could have

writes. Il saw 40 rounds of
fast professional boxing. Old
Lew was singing the mitts. Joe
Synek, Wolgast, Bob Barrett

School Athletic Plans
Paulsen Says This Will Be Good
Year for Chapel Hill

This promises to be a big
year for the Chapel Hill school
in athletics. C. H. Paulsen, bust
ness manager of the school ath-
letic association, said yesterday
that Chapel Hill would probably
have the best football team in
many years. DR.. Robert B. Law
son, the physical director for
the school, is already laying out
plan for the most effective
training.

youths are coming back from
Texas with Walker Whte," said
Mr.. Paulsen yesterday, land

football material. Then we are
going to have young Harrison,

The Mills Pass On
Landmarks Disappear; Two Washed
away in Flood of Aug. 3

In recalling the old Dave
Kelly hacks of a quarter of a
century ago l said, in a recent
issue, that had heard somebody
living near Kings Mill had one
of these vehicles, and that
planned to walk out some day
and see it. Kemp P. Lewis of
Durham challenges me in let
ter. "You say you are going to
walk out to Kings Mill. | bet
you ten to one you ride in your
flivver. I don't believe there's
anybody these days who knows
how to walk that far"
When Mr.. Lewis wrote this.
little did he suppose that Kings
Mill was no more. 1t went in
the flood of Sunday, August 8.
Purefoy's Mill floated away in
the same flood.
1t is sad to reflect upon the
passing of the old mills around
Chapel Hill. Emerson's down
on the Hillsboro Road about a
mile from towns gave up the
ghost several years ago. These
three buildings, Emerson's
Purefoy's, and Kings, are held
dear in the memory of old-time
Chapel Hillians.
We used to have our Sunday
School picnics at Kings. There
was a swimming hole near the
dam, and some winters, for
several days at a time, there
would be skating on the pond.
A negro woman, Cornelia Old
ham, is now the owner of the
land where the mill stood. 1t was
she who, meeting me on the
street last week, told me of it's
destruction. | don't think the
hack was in the mill, but in a
karn well out of reach of the
swollen stream. | still intend to
carry out my threat. l.. c..

COUNTY BRIDGES
BEING REPLACED
4 Commissioners Begin Work of
Reconstruction; Storm
Cost Thousands
SOME OLD MATERIAL USED

AS result of the inspection
of destroyed bridges made by
the commissioners of Orange
county last week, reconstruc-
ton will go rapidly ahead.
The five most important
bridges washed away by the
storm of August 3 were the
one on the Orange Church road
about a mile from Chapel Hill
the so-called Flat bridge on the
old Rittsboro road to the west
of town; the one known as Ed
Hobby's bridge on the Jones
Ferry road, about three miles
out to the west; and two
bridges over the New Hope in
the vicinity of Blackwood sta
tion.
The contract for building the
steel bridge on the Orange
Church road has been let to
Horner of Burlington for So, 800.
This covers steel only. The
total cost will be about $4,000.
Seton Smith has been engag-
ed to replace the Flat bridge,
using all the worthwhile mater
ial he can get from the old Flat
bridge and the destroyed bridges
at Purefoy's Mill and on the
Orange Church road. He is
doing the job on a day4abor
basis.
Lucian Canaday has been en-
gagged to build the new bridge on
the Jones Ferry road. This job
is not expected to cost more than
about $500.
Where the commissioners are
rebuilding on a day labor basis,
they are doing this because
there seems to be much material
in the Washed-away structures
that is still valuable. In the case
of the Flat bridge, for example,
some of the big metal pieces
are uninjured and can be put
right back in the new bridge.
Just how much money will
have to be expended by the
county, in consequence of the
big storm, is not yet known.
The commissioners will discuss
this matter at their regular
meeting in Hillsboro on the
first Monday in September.

THOMAS MAY AID
THEPLAYMAKERS
Theatrical MOgul To Ask Car
negie Board to Help
Koch's Troupe
STAGE FITTINGS NEEDED

Augustus Thomas, the cele-
brated playwright-and now,
by reason of his position as pres
ident of the Producing Mana
gers Association, a dominant
figure in the American theatre
has told the Carolina Play
makers that he is going to try
to persuade the Carnegie Foun-
dation to give them some money
with which to fit out the new
Playhouse on the campus. The
Playhouse was formerly the
Law building, and before that
the Library, and before that,
back about the time of the Civil
War, the ballroom.
"The reason l will lay this
suggestion before the Founda-
tion," Mr.. Thomas said recently,
''is that l regard the work being
done by the Carolina Playmak-
ers as of the highest educational
and social value. This organi-
zation has made a genuine con-
tribution to the native American
drama, and it deserves encour-
agement."
Frederick Fl. Koch, director
of the troupe, is now in the
mountains of Western North
Carolina, adding to his already
.superabundant store of vitality,
SO that if the Foundation asks
for report of the Playmakers'
activities he will be able to
knock its eye out, so to speak,
and stagger it into an enthusiast
tic loosening of the purse
strings. George Denny, his
trusty lieutenant, now teaching
in the Summer School, is prepar-
ed to stand by and add an eff
fective punch now and then to
weaken the Foundations resis-
tance.
From the Smith bequest of
$4,000 that became available
recently, the University has ap-
propriated $4,000 for the recon-
Struction of the old building in
to a playhouse. But this does
not provide seats, lighting fix
lures, or stage equipment. Be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 is
needed, in addition to the Uni
versity's contribution, if the
place is to be a real theatre.
The University's part of the
job-that is, the reconstruction
of the building-is expected to
be done by September Is. Of
course the aid of the Carnegie
Foundation is not counted upon
as a certainty-it is chance.
And the Foundation whose
members are at this season
spread all over the world on va
cations, may not even have the
proposal laid before it for sever
al weeks. The Playmakers
don't know what they will do
for quarters between now and
the time somebody provides the
required fund.
