Swarms of Squirming BoOkwOrms Discovered
At the Mary Bayley Pratt Children's Library
BIZ Charlotte Dnria

During the next few weeks
the library plans to have for
some Of its sessions a guest
story-telIer, Miss Jane Wilson,
supervisor of school Libraries in
Durham, who is teaching a
course in children's books at the
University's school of library
science. She is reported to be an
accomplished raconteur of fairy
tales, having told stories over
the radio during the big polio
epidemic.
When ! asked Mrs. Davis
about the children's preferences
in stories she said that they
loved most fairy tales, especially
those that are spooky and terri
flying. When it comes to taking
out books, they dote on all horse
and mystery stories. Mary
Poppins' is always in demand, !"
she said, and as for the so-called
'children's classics Tom Saw
yer is a great favorite, and
right now we're having a run on
Treasure Island because of the
new movie version of it that's
just come out. There is always
demand for science books; a boy
was asking about butterflies just
a minute ago, and astronomy has
become very popular since the
planetarium opened"
The library is open from 8 to
IL Tuesday through Saturday in
the summer. 1t contains $500
books and can serve adequately
children through the sixth
grade. 1t is harder to satisfy the
demands Of junior high readers,
especially if they are advanced
for their age, but Mrs Davis is
working to obtain more books
that will interest them. For an
overdue book the fine is one cent
la day. I'VE use the fine money
to buy potted plants" /" Mrs.
Davis said,

Argos, on Cape Cod,
Produce Good Shows

The Cape Cod Magazine Guide
contains an article about the
Compass Players, the summer
theatre company at Orleans,
Mass, directed by Mr.. and Mrs.
Gordon Argo. Mrs. Argo is the
former Miss Betsy Brunk of
chapel Hill. Mr.. Argo was a
student here in the University.
The article is by Patricia
Bradford Butler. Here are some
passages from it:
The Compass Players give
their audience something just a
little bit different from the gen
eral run of plays. Their first
show of the season, "The Second
Man." by S. N. Berhman, was a
thoroughly enjoyable comedy,
with the best acting done by
Gordon Argo and Austin Lowe.
"The first thing that will
strike your attention is the abso-
lutte plainness of the entire stage.
There is no scenery and the en-
tire effect is produced by the
lights. However, despite the ap-
parent plainness, when the show
begins the entire arena stage
undergoes a complete transfor-
nation. With the aid of approx
mately IL lights the stage is
bathed in color. Color lamps
moving from pink to amber give
shadow and light effect and un-
consciously create scenery. To
achieve the desired lighting eff
feet needed for each production
requires hours of lamp plot
ting adjusting and readjust-
ing Of the lights to point up the
main avenues Of stage business
within the limits of the overlap
ping light circles.
While you're down there, take
a minute to meet Betsy Argo,
publicity head Of the Compass
Players and wife Of the extreme
" attractive prOdncer-director
Gordon Atgo. Betsy will tel you
anything you'd IKE To know
about the type Of production
they put on, the arena stage
itself, and the lighting"

to 2 junction with the Durham
highway somewhere on the hill
coming up from Bolin creek.
This project, if carried out,
would not only change complete
ly the character of Rosemary
lane, by converting it into an
artery for through traffic; it
would bring noise, and evil
smells, and danger, into one Of
the quietest, and one of the most
beautiful and charming, sections
of the village. Automobiles would
be roaring up and down the lane
at all hours of the day and night,
driven by people without any
interest whatever in decent,
comfortable living for the
families in the neighborhood but
interested only in getting to the
towns business district or to
Carrboro or Durham with the
greatest possible speed. The
change would be a veritable
curse to Chapel Hill.
Thus far it is not an official
or even a semi-official proposal
| It is nothing more than q sug.
gestion. Still, it is possible for
such a suggestion to gain sup
port, and to be translated into
action, unless it receives the
watchful attention of persons
who stand to be affected by it,
/ have no doubt that the people
who have homes on Rosemary
lane, and In the neighborhoods
traversed by it, win be on the
alert to oppose the suggested
extensiOn.

only one public place in Chapel
Hill where children can get books
to read free? That is the Mary
Bayley Pratt children's library
in the elementary school. 1t
serves as classroom library in
the winter and is kept open dur
ing the summer for anybody
who wants to use it. Practically
every young bookworm in town
can be found there at one time
or another, but they all congre-
gate on Saturday morning at 10
o'clock for the weekly story
hour.
/ went down last Saturday to
watch the proceedings. ! easily
found the library up on the 3rd
floor of the building by following
the sound of scuffling feet above
me and arrived to find 40 or so
children, about 6 mamas, and
one harrassed papa bustling
around getting out books. The
librarian, Mrs. William E. Davis,
a friendly-lookings woman with
a soft voice, was busily register
ing newcomers.
We've just started a perma-
nent registering system using
numbers" she explained, that
will serve every child as long as
he is in grammar school" She
pointed to the boy who had just
gotten a card from her. He is
the 179th person to register"
she told me, "but at the rate
we're growing this summer, /

of August
] saw that the rows of chairs
| in the center of the room were
gradually filling up. The parents
had quietly disappeared to go
about their morning shopping,
and Mrs. Davis moved to the
front Of the room to tell her
stories. After considerable scuf-
fling due TO the fact that the
latecomers all wanted to sit on
the tables in the back of the
room rather than on the chairs
set out for them, the audience
settled down and she began.
Mother Holdor" and 'Dick
Wilmington and His Cat" were
attentively received. The audi
ence ranged in age from 8 to II,
one third of whom were boys,
but there were no interruptions
and as little squirming as is
possible for a ycungster. Nobody
asked any questions until the
end; then they all wanted to
know what had become of Dicks
cat.

A Suggested Street Extension

There was city planning in
Rome under the early emper-
ors-or did it begin earlier than
that, under the republic? Mr.
Ullman or Mr.. Harland could
spot the time for me, but no
matter. ] remember that Mr..
Linscott, the Latin professor
here when was a sophomore in
the spring of 1901, told US some
thing about it in his lecture
course on the food, clothing,
homes, domestic habits, outdoor
sports, indoor amusements, pub
lie buildings, streets, and roads
of the Romans. Maybe one of
the University historians will in
form me that | have not placed
the origin Of city planning far
enough back-that this science
and art was engaged in by the
Greeks, the Egyptians, the As
syrians, and the Babylonians.)
The planning of the city of
Berlin was begun under the first
king Of Prussia nearly three CEN
turies ago and was continued
under his successors. Major
Pierre L'Enfant's plan for Wash
ington was made a century and
half ago when the site of the
city was nothing more than a
mud fiat beside the Potomac.
Large-scale planning for some
of the areas of Paris outside the
old city began about three-quar-
ters of a century ago. And there
hasabeen planning, some of it
short-range, some of it long
range, in many other cities.
City planning is just one
phase IF planning in general.
While there have been notable
examples of the planning of
cities, planning in general, as we
know it today-that is, organ
lied planning, as permanent
government SERVICES new.
The need for it has led to the
birth of a profession of high
standing, that of the planning
expert, who prepares for his
career by thorough study of the
various aspects of the problems
that he will be called upon to
solve. The University here has
planning department under
the command of one of these ex-
perts, John A. Parker. And
Chapel Hill has a town planning
commission headed by L. j.
Phipps. The University depart
ment is giving aid to the town
commission.
A plan, for a municipality or
8 larger area is reached through
discussion, first in governing
boards and other small groups,
and later, maybe, in community
gatherings. 1t may be the result
of compromises among conflict
ing interests. In the formulation
of q plan an element Of the popu-
lation that leans toward radical
change may prevail over q con-
servative element, or vice versa
or the plan may represent an
even break between the two.
Recently | heard of a sugges-
ton, for a change in Chapel
Hills street layout, that seems
to me to reflect the dominance Of
q road engineers or q freight
shippers point of view over that
Of person who is concerned
about preserving a fair measure
Of peace and quiet for residen-
tial quarters. This suggestion is
for an extension of Rosemary
lane eastward, down by the Van
Hecke home and through the
