BOXING PROMOTER
HAS ROUGH TRIP
UP FROM MARION
Helped out by PittsbOrO Man
Who Recalled Seeing Him
in the Outlaw Play
NEGRO LODGED IN JAIL

Bill Cox, originator of boxing
in the University, playwright,
and intimate friend of the fam
Gus ex-pugilist, philadelphia
Jack" O'Brien, came up from
Marion, South Carolina Satur-
day night in a Ford sedan. The
weather was so cold that the
water in his radiator froze on
the way. When he got to Pitts
boro, about an hour after mid
night, he was out of water and
couldn't get any because all the
pipes in the town were frozen.
In the hotel near the court house
he walked a clerk. The man did
not give him a warm welcome at
first but became friendly when
he discovered the traveller was
the same person he had seen in
''The Scuffletown Outlaws"
when the Carolina Playmakers
were in Pittsboro two years ago.
Thereupon the contents of the
water-cooler in the lobby were
poured into the empty radiator.
The car took the road again.
Three miles from Chapel Hill the
gas gave out. Mr.. Cox's negro
companion, whom he had
brought along with him from
South Carolina, ran to a nearby
barn, found a car in it, and then
proceeded on to the farm house
and aroused the occupants. The
farmer came out in his bare feet
and, apparently Indifferent to
the freezing temperature, went
to the barn, extracted a gallon
or two of gas from his car, hand
ed it over to the negro, and ex-
pressed disappointment because
the strangers would not come
into his home and thaW out. Ar
irving in Chapel Hill, Mr.. Cox
drove into the campus, hunted
up the watchman, Mr.. Blake, an
old acquaintance, and asked for
a nights lodging. Mr.. Blake led

FOard Home Burned

The home of the two Misses
Foard, sisters of Mrs. William
deb. MacNider, was destroyed
by fire Sunday morning. 1t was
in the country a few miles from
Salisbury. DR.. and Mrs. Mac
Nider went there by motor Mon
day. They found that most of
the contents of the first floor had
been saved, but nothing on the
upper floors. Many pieces of old
furniture were lost. The house
had been occupied by the same
family for nearly two hundred
years.

Green, Restoring an Old Custom,
Builds an Coffee in the Yard

no tyro at an enterprise like this.
For the heavy work at the be-
ginning, the placing of the beams
and joists, he had the help of a
laborer, but since the first day
or so he has been alone on the
job. He completed the roof eight
or ten days ago, and when the
time came to leave for New York
he had the walls up.
By the construction of this lit
tie house the playwright is re-
turning to an old Chapel Hill
custom. Until about twenty-five
years. ago no University profess
sor thought of having a home
without a little "office" in the
yard-a place where he could es-
cape the distractions Of house
hold life and find the quiet and
solitude favorable to scholarly
toll.
Mr.. Green has two children
who, from now on for several
years to come, will be engaged in
pursuits of a sort not apt to
soothe a father who is seeking
to engross himself in dramatic
composition. The new out-build-
ing will be the fathers place of
refuge.

No Paper for 2 Weeks
Editor of Weekly, and Subscribers
Will Have a Rest

i am going to give myself, and
my subscribers, a rest from the
Chapel Hill Weekly for two
weeks.
The paper will not be publish
ed again until Friday, January
IA. That is to say, the issues
of December 81 and January z
will be omitted. This week the
date of publication is changed
from Friday to Thursday be-
cause of the imminence of
Christmas.
1t has been my practice, since
the paper was established, to
skip the issue nearest New
Years Day (the one which, if
published. would be the product
of labor during Christmas
week.. So, this time I am mere
ly extending the recess. Every
editor, of course, likes to think
of his paper as being indispen-
sable, but somehow I feel that
the public will survive this fort
nights deprivation. I hope the
Weekly's readers, however, will
not welcome the suspension with
any obtrusive show of joy and
will be prepared, in mid Janu-
ary, to resume their attention to
the village gossip with cheerful
and indulgent spirit. | might
add that the main reason l am
taking an extra week off is that
my brother Ralph is coming
down here from the North for
the first week of the New Year.
He comes this way but rarely,
and if | had to get out a paper
while he was here / would see
very little Of him.

Glenn Patterson Dies
WelI-Kn0wn Druggist Succumbs to
Pneumonia at Age of Al

Glenn Patterson, who had
been a druggist in Chapel Hill
for many years, died of pneu-
monia last Friday at the age of
Al. A turn for the better Thurs
day morning encouraged his
family and friends to think that
he might conquer the disease,
but that night he began to sink
and it became apparent that
there was no hope of recovery.
He is survived by his mother,
Mrs. N. G. l.. Patterson, with
whom he lived; a sister, Mrs. G..
b. Griffin; and two brothers,
Wallace Patterson of Chapel Hill
and AlVis Patterson Of La
grange.
The funeral was conducted by
Rev. Eugene Olive at the Baptist
Church Sunday afternoon, and
was followed by the interment in
the village cemetery.
Glenn Patterson grew up in
Chapel Hill, was educated in the
University, and was well known
to all the people here. His gen.
ial and friendly nature made him
universally popular, and the
news of his death brought wide
spread sorrow. The students
knew him affectionately as
Archie, and his drugstore was
was highly favored as rendezv-
GUS. One of his dominant traits
was a disposition to give help to
students whenever they sought
it. He was extremely liberal in
giving credit, and the frequency
with which he came to their aid
when they were in financial dis
tress won him a reputation for
unusual generosity.

Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Green left
this week for New York where
his play, "In. Abraham's Bosom" "
is to have its first presentation
next Tuesday evening.
One would naturally suppose
that, with such an event in pros
pect, a playwright would have
little thought for a carpentry
job around the home. Yet Mr..
Green had become so absorbed
in a building operation that he
almost hated to depart.
With his own hands he is
putting up, on the very edge of
Battles Park, a combination
study-and-garage. 1t is a simple
one-story structure perched on
the side of the hill, about Is
feet long by Is wide, with the
garage at one end and the study
at the other. In the middle of
the study's east wall will be a
chimney, and the other walls will
be lined with bookcases. A row
of three windows open out over
the park.

houses, on the Harnett county
farm where he used to live, MIR.
Green gained considerable ex-
perience as a carpenter, so he is

Chapel Hill Chaf

The other day l asked w. S.
Bernard what had become of the
famous midget automobile that
was a familiar sight in the viii
lage a few years ago-the car
that carried one passenger in
front and one behind. He told
me it lay in his back yard, pile
of rusty junk. After it was
discarded his daughter, Mary
Stanley, used it for play purposes
and robbed it of many of its
parts. This strange vehicle
strange here, where nothing else
like it was ever seen-gave Mr..
Bernard splendid service. He
travelled in it to New York and
back; and from one end of
North Carolina to the other be-
fore the day of good roads. And
nobody knows how many thous-
and6 of miles back and forth in
Chapel Hill. Parking presented
no problem at all. When Mr..
Bernard came home to the little
office in the corner of the
Kluttz yard he simply put the
car up on the sidewalk where it
was no greater interference to
traffic than a baby-carriage. He
told me once about a New York
policeman who, seeing the car
draw near, lifted one leg high in
the air and called to him: "Pass
under!"
My boyhOod chum, Percy
Hogan, who lives in Kingsport,
Tennessee, sent me recently

K. K. Peacock, professor in the
University's school of commerce,
suffered for months from the
lack of heat in his room in Saun-
ders hall. Irl Summerlin, heat
ing system expert in the At
wood Nash organization, heard
of the trouble and went to inves-
tigate. He turned the little
wheel, which was put there
to be turned, and the heat came
bounding on. Mr.. Summerlin
said afterWard that he had
heard a lot about the absent
mindedness and impracticality
Of old-fashioned classical pro-
fessors but was astonished to
find one of these neW-fangled
commerce men who didn't know
how to turn the heat on.

CHAPTER XIX-Continued

We rowed on under the Walrus'
stern, and there we came upon an
amazing spectacle.
A longbOat was always towed astern
for the greater convenience in case
there was a sudden necessity for it's
use at sea. This boat had been
drawn beneath the stern windows,
from which a man was lowering a
heavy box or chest, which second
man was receiving into it's bow. The
man In the lOngboat heard the rattle
OF our oars and gave us one lightning
glance before he slaShed at the moor
ing-rope and leaped to his own oars.
The tide carried him Immediately be-
hind us, and had a vision of a bloody
face wrapped in an old shirt. If he
knew who we were he gave no sign.
He huddled onto thwart and pulled
downstream with the tide.
But the man in the stern windows
was not SO reticent He leaned far
out, wringing his hands and clamoring

Where Name Gamaliel Occurs in the Bible

Two men by the name of Gamaliel
are spoken Of in the Bible. The pc
RODS in which they lived were widely
separated. The name of the first is
found in Numbers 1 10. He was the
son of Pedahazur, a prince or cap
tain of the Tribe of Manasseh, and he
is here mentioned in connection with
the census of Sinai. He again men
toned in chapters 2 20; 7:54 and 10:
%, the latter reference being to
Gamaliel as captain of the Tribe Of
Manasseh at the starting Of the Is
realities on their march through the
wilderness. The second Gamaliel was
a Pharisee and celebrated doctor of
the law, who gave sound worldly ad-
vice to the Sanhedrin respecting the
treatment of the followers Of our
Lord. This will be found in Acts 5 "a.
1t is also learned from 22:3 that he
was the teacher of st. Paul when the

Tribute to Franklin

For 6S years Benjamin Franklin
served his country and mankind, and
history affirms the judgment of his
contemporaries, expressed most not
ably in the tribute adopted by the
national assembly of France upon an
nouncement of his death. Offering the
resolution, which was seconded by
Rochefoucauld and Lafayette, Mira
beau declared:
1.-THE sage whom two worlds claim
as their own, the man for whom the
history of science and the history of
empires contend with each other, held
without doubt exalted rank in the hui
man race. Antiquity would have
raised affairs to this mighty genius,
who, to the advantage of mankind
comprising in his mind the heavens
and the earth, was able to restrain
alike thunderbolts and tyrants. Eu-
rope, enlightened and free, owes at
least token Of remembrance to one
Of the greatest men who have ever
been engaged in the service of philos-
ophy and Of liberty"
