WOOllen Kills a Snake
Encounters COpperhead near Stadium,
and Executes Ii Promptly

Charles T. Woollen, business
manager of the University,
killed a copperhead Sunday eve
ming.
The village had not been hear
ing much of snakes this year.
Last year L. Nj. Brooks des-
patched one on his lawn, and
Robert B. House went out from
the supper-table at the Mobiles
to dispose of two which had
glided up the walk to the front
steps. And MessrS. Hibbard
and Baker made their kills. This
summer people had begun to
think that perhaps the news of
these slaughters had circulated
among the snakes hereabouts
and caused an exodus to less
murderous communities.
Just after nightfall Mr.. Wool
len, in his automobile, rolled
slowly down the road into the
ravine south of the campus to
see if the Kenan stadium was
still there, AS he came to the
| little temporary bridge at the
bottom Of the slope he saw, inn
mediately in his path, in the
glare of the lights, a striped
snake with it's head lifted, it's
eyes glittering, and its tongue
darting wickedly this way and
that.
He stopped the car, got out,
walked a few feet to pick up a
piece of two-by-four lumber,
and advanced to the attack. His
prey waited for him obligingly,
and in a moment the execution
was over. The copperhead was
about three feet long.
This Is the only visitor to the
stadium, thus far, that has been
treated inhospitably by Mr..
Woollen, He usually welcomes
them with smiles and answers
their questions patiently.

Zeta Psi House Finished
Fraternity Has New Home on Cam
eron Avenue Near the Campus

The Zeta Psi fraternity house,
on the old Harris place on Cam
eron avenue about a hundred
yards from the west campus
gate, is finished. After he had
completed the construction it.
self Brodie Thompson, the con-
tractor, cleared away the debris
and leveled off the ground, so
that now the building and it's
surroundings have a ship-shape
appearance. This, the newest of
the fraternity houses in Chapel
Hill, was erected at cost of a.
bout $4,000. 1t is in the Colo
nial style, with walls of brick,
on the front a portico with
white columns rising to the top
Of the second story, porches at
the ends, and a big sleeping
porch on the rear. An unusual
feature that has been much ad-
mired by visitors is the vaulted
chapter hall in the basement.
Sleeping quarters are provided
for around 30 students. Dir.
Charles Mangum is the member
who was most active in guiding
the project. Eventually the
Kappa Sigma and the Kappa
Alpha are to build on the fianks,
nearer the avenue, so that the
three houses will form a court.

Fine Organ for Theatre
Dir. kincey Hopes to Open the Play
house around September 18th

One of the features of the new
Sorrell theatre, which is to be
operated by the Publix-Saenger
Theatres of North Carolina, will
be Robert Morton pipe organ.
Preparations are now being
made to install it.
H. F. Kincey, the business
manager of the operating COM
pany, with headquarters in
Greensboro, told citizen of
Chapel Hill the other day that
he hoped to- open the house a.
bout the 18th. Seeing the dec
orators at work, and knowing
that after they leave the seats
have to be put in people here
have been inclined to doubt that
the shows can begin by that
time. But, if not on the 18th,
soon thereafter.
I'VE expect it to be one of the
prettiest, and most comfortable
small theatres in the state" said
Mr.. Kincey. 1T will seat 800,
and every spectator will have a
good view of the screen. We
have already booked some of the
best pictures available, and, al
together, we expect to provide
the finest quality of entertain
lnent for the University and.
Chapel HILL"
Mr.. Kincey has been par
tieaIaFly interested in the ar
rangements for ventilation, to
the end that the air in the house
may be always fresh and cool.

The Carolina Glee Club Sails for Home

The University of North Caro-

5 weeks in England and France,
embarked for America day be-
fore yesterday at Boulogne-sur-

The members will be back in
Chapel Hill for the opening Of
the fall term.
Letters and newspaper clip
pings sent home by the travellers
indicate that they were we'll re-
ceived by the Europeans.
After the concert at STRAIT
ford-on-Avon for the benefit of
the Shakespeare Memorial the
music reviewer of one of the
British newspapers wrote:
"A party of 80 undergradu-
ates, whose ages are between
II and 10, composing the Uni
versity of North Carolina Glee
Club, sang a wonderful selec-
tion of songs, madrigals, and
chorales at the Temporary Mem
orial Theatre on Thursday aff-
ternoon.
I'm costume they wore Oxford
blue jackets, Cambridge ties, and
neutral flannel trousers, well
creased. Only three or four of
them had the usual tortoiseshell
spectacles, which are the hall
mark of Americans.

"The American negro songs
were sung in the North Caro-
lima dialect. The enunciation
was particularly clear through
out. Most of the singing was
in a minor key, and if the Choir
listers were not much too young
for the experience one might
opine that as a body they had
been disappointed in love. The
touch of sadness was only re-
lieved when we reached the mod
ern American songs. Those had
an air of jollity which was dis
tinctly welcome.
THE negro songs were given
in the true manner, solo leader
commencing and chorus follow
ing with the refrain. One got
the impression of groups work
ing in the cotton fields or plan
tations and tightening their toll
with songs. The workings were
decidedly quaint and The religi-
GUS character much emphasized.
The articulation was splendidly
clear, the breathing was that of
practiced singers, and the low
notes were never mumbled."

lhC lGICoC phase VI tllC S0ll-
struction of the Kenan stadium
is the laying of turf on the hill
sides near the ends of the con-
crete stands. In the last few
weeks visitors have expressed
curiosity as to what would be
done to improve the appearance
of these bare and rugged spaces,
and now they see the solution of
the problem.
Heavy rains had washed
trenches down the red-clay
slopes, making a sight in un-
pleasant contrast to the expanse
of grass on the playing field.
But before long the clay will be
hidden under a mat of green.
1t happens that the area back
| of Phillips Hall, in front of the
quarters of the building service
department, is being prepared
for an automobile parking space,
and so the turf that was there
became available for the sta
dium. 1t is hauled in wagons,
and the workmen lay it on the
slopes in parallel strips about ten
feet apart, each strip about five
feet wide. These form a con-
tinuation of the curve of the
stands. They serve to prevent
the washing away of the soil,
and the alternating stretches not
covered by turf are to be plane
ed with grass seed the growth
of which will be stimulated, as
were the seed on the field, by
Vigorous fertilizing.
The massive columns for the
gateways at the north (campus)
end of the enclosure have been
completed. Tall iron gates will
be placed in the openings be-
tween the columns, and from
them in both directions, up the
hills, will run the stout wire
fence which is to be the sta
dium's outermost boundary. This
fence passes through the woods
to the rear Of the lavatory lstruc-
lures and around behind the
field house at the south end.
Nventually it will be covered by
either trailing vines or hedges.
Within short while the eight
layatories, four to the rear Of

ible against the forest back
ground.
