which a man would care to see
a camera man would be a night
club.
Good Business
Yet the mug seems to do
fairly well. Every once in so
often some dope on a cham
pagne jag consents to picture
with an arm around his grille.
The camera man steps back,
fools with his camera, raises his
flashlight-and 10 husbands in
the vicinity dive under the
nearest tables.
The Sphinx. A night club de-
signed essentially for those wh|
expect to find a spot exactly
like this in Paris. It's quite a
large cafe and the decorations
are we'll done. There are about
80 hostesses, all of them nude
from the waist up.
The music consists Of some
phonograph records that are
shot through a loud speaker
and have a sad effect on the ear
drums. It's impossible to sit in
the Sphinx more than Is min
utes without calling for a check
and hitting the air. I defy any,
one to stand the place much
longer.
It's interesting to sit near the
door and watch the So-called re-
spectacle folks as they enter
from the street and get their
first glimpse Of the nude
hostesses. For example, while I
was there, a middle-aged and -
presumably-highly respectable
American couple entered the
place. Papa had evidently heard
about the Sphinx in the after
noon and he was taking mama
to see how wild Paris really
was.
Mama had promised to be a
good sport" She weakened a
trifle when papa was checking
his coat and that terrible blonde
tickled him under the chin, but
she went through with it lust
the same. What was she going
to do-walk out and leave papa
there alone? She should say
not!
Mama Talks
The couple sat down at a
table only a few feet from mine.
AS the hotesses danced past,
I heard mama talking.
Awful" she kept saying.
Terrible! To think that such
places are allowed to exist! I
can hardly believe my eyesw
Within ten minutes. they
were on the way out. Her
chin in the air, mama walked
ahead with a firm tread, look
ing neither to the right nor the
left. And papa was acting
along similar lines. He was
dying for one last look, but he
felt it became him to be quite
blase.
Does such an experience hurt
these people! 1 think not.
Mama will spend the next day
in writing to Mrs. Harris and
Mrs. Abbott, and telling them
how terrible it all was. When
she gets back to America, she
will deliver special lecture no,
France before the Ladies' Aid
Society-"girls under 18 not to
be admitted"
And papa? Well, you can
imagine him with the boys in
the office when he gets back.
He'll build the story into some
thing quite fantastic and, be-
fore he knows it, he'll have the
reputation of a. rake and a
libertine. which, if know my
papas, will make him quite
happy.
Remember my experience in
Monte Carlo when, after asking
why they had no crap games
among all the other gambling
devices, I was told it was be-
cause it would be against the
law? Well, here's what hap
pened at the Sphinx:

teSSes, I summoned a waitress.

From a Lafayette Man
Mr.. Davis Recalls Visits to Chapel
Hill Forty Years Ago

In the 1905. when college
baseball was in its glory, the La
fayette team was an annual Wis
itor to the South, and on every
trip the Pennsylvanians came to
Chapel Hill for a double-header.
For several years the Lafayette
games were as regular a fixture
on the Carolina schedule as the
Virginia games.
One Of the Lafayette play
ers in those days was Parke H.
Davis. He now lives in Easton,
Pa, close to his alma mater. A
few days ago he had occasion to
write to Robert A. Fetzer, our
University director of athletics.
DispOsing in two or three lines
of the business matter about
which they were corresponding,
he proceeded to "reminiscences
about his visits here.
Your letter kindled my men,
ories of Chapel Hill," he wrote
Il went there several times forty
and more years ago often

versity station to Chapel Hill
functions as of yore. Actually.
| have seen a Lafayette player
who was carrying chair get off
the forward coach while the
train was in motion, sit down in
his chair, and then re-bOard the
train as the last coach came past.
Once, as we We're under way, a
man came running across a field

down, we thought. The train
slowed up and halted. What do
You want?' called the engineer.
/ want to know what time it is,
replied the Wild man.
And then Chapel Hill. Mistle-
toe in those days hung from
scores of your oak trees. At FIVE
o'clock in the morning. in the
hotel, we heard terrific pound
ing. We got out of bed and
looked out of the window. An
old colored woman was pound
ing dough with the flat side Of
an axe. She is probably crazy,
we said, unused to such a sight !:
but at breakfast, when biscuits
came to the table from that
dough we were the ones who
were crazy; crazy with delight
Once. when we We're stroll

Winter Football Is in Full Swing;
Game in Kenan Stadium Tomorrow

The University'S winter foot
ball season is in full swing now.
Given a good break on weather,
Coach Collins hopes to have a
. real match tomorrow Saturday
afternoon in the Kenan stadium
referee, umpire, field judge,
linesman, timekeepers, water
bucket-toters, just about all the
: personnel and all the formality
h. you see at big game except the
band and the cheer leaders.
. But no, not quite the regula-
tion program after ALL" Coach
Collins told me yesterday. For
We'll play 12-minute instead of
15-mlnute quarters, and we
won't start with a kickoff. The
men are far more apt to get

running the risk in practice; it's
bad enough to have to run it
when the rules compel you. So
tomorrow you'll see us get the
play started with a scrimmage
on the 30-yard line"
Having in mind the disputes
about the kickoff that have rag
ed in football circles all over the
country, | asked:
What do you think about the
6 question of retaining or abolish
ing the kickoff? In regular in

conflicting testimony on what
ails the farmer and what should
be done to put him on his feet,
the best that has been achiev-
ed seems as far from the solu-
ton as the law that created the
Farm Board and tapped the Fed
eral Treasury for many mil
lions.
Farmers raising wheat, cot
ton, tobacco and pork would be
given a subsidy under the allot-
ment plan outlined so far. L is
clear that it would be a bounty
to a selected class of our popula-
ton, with an increase in the
food bill of the nation that might t
easily reach $750,OOO,000 a year
and which the farmers would
have no assurance of receiving.
Take the case of pork, for in
stance, which competeS with
beef on the food market. Beef
would not be subsidized under
the allotment plan. If the price
of pork roast were raised
through the subsidy plan, then
American housewives would buy
beef instead. The packers OF
pork would be compelled to bid
down in their purchases at the
stock yards or have their pro-
duct driven off the market. The
result would be that they would
bid low, setting a price that, in
Guiding the subsidy, would net
them hogs for about what the
farmer would have received any
way.
Plenty of pressure will be ap-
piled to rush the new farm~le~
lief bill through Congress.

| is around 40 yards, and the kick
off is usually returned to about
the 30-yard line. So it would
give the two teams about an
even break, no matter which won
the toss, to start with a scrim-
mage on the 30-yard line. The
team having the ball, if it failed
to make the distance, could punt
the ball to around the 30-yard
line of the other team"
When the first call was is
sued, for winter practice, 105
students responded. The squad
has now been reduced to 78. 1t
is divided into teams which COM
pete with one another.
Coach Collins thinks the
freshman material seems to be
more promising than for the
last year or so. ut is too early,
of course, to know how good
these freshmen are going to be, y
he says, "but | am hopeful about
them. For one thing, it looks
as if we may develop strong
tackles from last falls freshman
squad. This is encouraging, be-
cause frst-class varsity material
for that position has been rather
scarce in the last two or three
seasons"
