that accompanies the picture ex-

zone to see Carolina play such
teams as Virginia, Georgia Tech,
Vanderbilt, Florida, and Tu-
lane"-this is the recompense of
those who subscribe to the sta
dium fund. For everybody who
contributes 500 one of these
desirable seats is reserved, for
a period of ten years, provided
he sends in an order for the
seats at the regular admission
price.
All who contribute from $100
to 81, 900 will be known as Sub
scribers; ;; those who contribute
$1,000 to SIS, 900 as Donors those
who contribute $4,000 or more
as Founders. All contributors
will be memorialized by having
their names placed on bronze
tablets at suitable places on the
stadium. For a contributor of
as much as $4,000 a bronze tab

that the section was erected
through the generosity of this

A Night in GOldsbOrO
Slumber of Koch Family Disturbed
by Fires and Auto Smash

Mrs. F. H. Koch's visits to
eastern North Carolina seem al
ways to be highly charged with
excitement.
p A year or SO. ago she went to
Beaufort, and typhoon struck
the house she was in shattering
the windows and covering the
bed with broken glass.
Last week she was returning
from Wrightsville and stopped
over in a Goldsboro hotel with
her three boys. When they had
fallen asleep a fire siren sounded
beneath the window. They dress
ed in haste and went down stairs
and saw a moving picture house
burned. Again they went to
bed, and again were walked up
by a fire alarm. This time they
watched the blaze from their
windows. After they had got
asleep for the third time they
were wakened by a loud crash
and, running to look out, they
beheld an automobile crash.
Except for these three Incl
dents the night was peaceful.

Chapel Hill Chaf

From my desk in the office of
the Printshop | looked out
through the screen door and saw
a man weaving his way in and
out among the discarded crates
and boxes in the broiling sun
back of the Crowder furniture
store. There was something fa-
miliar in the lines of his figure,
yet | could not quite place him.
He would put his hand on a box,
turn it this way and that, ex-
anime it critically, and then cast
it aside sadly to pass on to an
other box and repeat the process.
Nothing in the pile seemed to
please him.
Hes about the gloOmiest-
looking scavenger | ever laid
eyes on, - said to myself. At
this moment he turned his face
toward me and | recognized an
editor of the Baltimore Sun
Gerald w. Johnson. In the last
throes of moving from Chapel
Hill to Baltimore, he was look
ing about for a contain
er for a few of his still
unpacked household goods. Even
as l recognized himrhis posture
of detection was succeeded by
a quick pounce that told me he
had found what he wanted.
And so, having packed, and
corrected their examination pa
pers, and sent their daughters
with nurse on a Pullman car
to visit the grandparents in New
York, Gerald Johnson and Mrs.
Johnson enter their Ford sedan

FAMOUS HUNTER
SHOWS PICTURES
HERE WEDNESDAY

tares with Wild Animals

LECTURE WITH THE FILMS

Col, Harry K. Eustace, cele-
brate9 British hunter of wild
game, will put on, in Memorial
Hal, next Wednesday evening,
moving picture exhibition of
his experiences. in the jungles of
Africa There are 1000 feet of
film, and Colonel Eustace will
accompany the pictures by a
talk.
He spent Is years in Africa,
most Of the time in regions far
away rom the frontiers of civil
lizatIo1, where he was in con-
stant, and often dangerous as
sOcjatj0n, with elephants, lions,
and other beasts. Mrs. Eustace
was with him, and together they
succeeded in obtaining some of
the most remarkable pictures of
wild animal life that have ever
been taken anywhere.
Approaching the wild ami
mails SO closely that the camera
could be trained upon them was
hazardous work, and thrilling
narrow escapes from death. are
shown on the screen. In more
than one instance Mrs. Eustace
is seen killing an animal to save
her husband when he ventured
too close in the effort to get a
picture.
This exhibition is not one OF
the regular Summer Schoo
series, having been scheduled
only a few days ago. The ad.
mission price is 25 cents fol

present athletic field is less than
the actual number of students
attending the University. When
Carolina and Virginia played
last fall over 10000 people
crowded around a field prepared
to seat comfortably only 2,400.
Temporary wooden bleachers
We're erected. The Carolina a-Vir-
ginia game will be played in
Chapel Hill again in 1927, and
over 25,00O people would be
glad to come if they were as
sured comfortable seats.
Nov, with our seating capa-
city of 2,400, it isn't possible to
interest the best Southern teams
in playing games at Chapel Hill.
The bigger universities want to
come to Chapel Hill for games,
but until we can offer what 9TH
er universities are. prepared to
give, in attendance, they can
not consider placing the Univer-
Sitv on their schedule. We
would have the attendance if
We had the stadium"
The location selected for the
stadium is a ravine south of
the campus and on University
land. The design provides for
a seating capacity of 33,5O0, and
provision for the addition of
10000 more seats when needed.
There will be twenty-four points
of entrance, and ample approach
es and parking space. The cost
is estimated at $5OO,00O, and the
desire of the committee is tC
complete the structure in time
for the game with Virginia q
year from next Thanksgiving
Day.

A Queer Echo

Walking through the wing of
the Methodist church. from the
campus Wednesday morning, !
came upon the pastor, Mr.. Pat
ten. What about that echo
Miss Daisy Ross has been telling
me about" | asked. He led me
into the auditorium and we made
our way to the very center of
the floor.
Mr.. Patten clapped his hands,
and from the ceiling came a
sound as of a load of shingles
falling off a wagon. Or, you
might think, as of a volley of
rifle shots. 1t was a succession
of sharp cracks.
We moved few feet toward
one end of the hall and again Mr..
Patten clapped his hands. Not
a sound answered.
The explanation lies in the
curve of the ceiling. l do not
know what geometrical term a
mathematician would use to de-
scribe this curve. 1t is like the
interior surface of dome, but
the slope is much more gentle
than that which one usually as
Sociates with the word dome.
The nearest | can come to it is
the "flattened trajectory" that
We used to talk about on the
Army target ranges. In short,
the ceiling curves upward from
the sides to a central point, but
curves so little that it is not far
from fiat.
A sound made in the middle of
the hall rises to the ceiling and
is thrown back against the floor,
multiplied many times. But a
sound made elsewhere hits the
ceiling at a tangent and is dissi-
pated, getting no echo at all.
The scientists in Phillips Hall
may say that this is not the ex-
act and complete truth the love
for which inspires their life, but
it is the best can do.
The Methodist pews have not
yet arrived, and so the auditor
ium floor is now completely bare.
When there are seats upon it,
the echo is not heard. This was
demonstrated on the day of the
schools baccalaureate sermon,
when temporary seats were
brought in.

Mr.. and Mrs. Moody Durham
left Chapel Hill Tuesday in their

1t may be that they will decide
to go on to the Pacific Coast, and,
if so, they will be away from
home all summer. If they go no
further than Nebraska they will
probably be back around the first
of August.
